HTC Clock Widget Problem - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So for some reason the weather of my current location is messed up and wont load. It's stuck at a high of 55º and low of 0º and the weather doesnt load on the widget. If i choose a city the weather works fine, just not with the current location. Anyone know what could be causing this or have a fix?

Try going to settings, applications, and then look for the htc weather and try clearing cache or data. I hope that help

This happening to me right now as well, so I don't think going into settings will help...

Yep I just bought 2 new Evos and had them less then a week and we both today were talking about the weather portion of the widget not working correctly.

was happening earlier today for me as well, but all is normal now

Delete the widget and just reinstall it and that should fix it. I believe they updated it along with accuweather.
If you notice now that when you click the weather to go the detailed weather page at the bottom where it says weather if you click that it will now take you to the accuweather webpage and you can view more detailed info. I believe it used to be this way got broken and now they fixed it. I like it. And if you watch it were it says weather with time below it now switches back and forth from the time to "More details online" .

Mine doesn't. The only time I noticed it doing that is when I had multiple locations. The non home locations did it, but not the home.

I just tested, I run multiple locations also and it works on both of them, home and my other one.
Running Stock Froyo

I did a reboot and it fixed the weather issue.

Default clock widget on HTC Desire

the clock also has my "supposed" location" just underneath the time.
Is there any way to change the settings on the widget to remove the location as the location is never correct ( i think it may be the location of the phone mast it is using )
Also if i remove the clock widget altogether, how do i get it back as Ive been into Add Widgets and it is not the "Analog Clock" by Andoird or the Clock by HTC
Have you clicked on the Clock by HTC and gone right? Its there.
When you re-add it you can add a City of anywhere, so you can manually choose your own city. Not sure about the name, haven't really looked at that part...
it is the clock by h t c you need to swipe to the right to see the version you're talking about.
when you choose the widget you can choose any location you want

yeah that is it, i thought it was a differen one as it had the weather in it.
Doesn't look there is a way to disable the location

I dunno about disabling location but you can pick your own location instead of it doing it automatically.

I don't need an app to tell me what the weather is right now, where I am right now. I've got five built-in senses that do a pretty good job of working that out, no data connection necessary.
I like the flip clock though.
Related (But not what OP asked). The Defaulted clock the Location was wrong at Arrival obviously. However after changing it into the Right City the weather plugin on the Homescreen now displays the right area (Although lacking the proper letters "å ä ö" are displayed as "a a o" but that's not the problem. Once I hit the weather it suddenly displays the "Current" city seems to be defaulted at "Sweden"... Is there a way to change that Current city or force it so it displays the right things?

Have a look on the market for a flip clock app then or just IGNORE the weather on it.

Accuweather Widget not updating location?

So I have noticed that no the accuweather widget will update the temp and stuff fine, but will not update to my current location?
If I go in and manually add a location it will change to it, but then no matter where I go it stays on that location. I have tried looking at settings, tried deleting and re-adding it, and just does not seem to follow me.
Anyone have this problem? Any ideas.....
Assuming this can't be fixed I was thinking of using weather channel and that widget as I know it updates based on your location, but I am worried about battery drain. Besides I actually like the default weather on the phone, but it is a killer that it will not update. I travel a ton for work and don't want to add every location.
TIA
Have you tried removing the widget and adding it back? I've noticed some funkiness with widgets in general after flashing and/or restoring and that usually fixes things for me.
EDIT: and even though it should matter, try adding the widget back and updating the settings outside so it can get a GPS lock. It should be able to figure out where you are from the cell tower, but I've notice the GPS icon in the status bar when I was messing with the setting.

I tried doing that a bunch of times thinking it may help. It really doesn't seem to make any difference. I notice when I was playing with the weather channel widget every time I wake my phone up I see the gps icon for a few seconds. Wonder if that should happen with accuweather too? I have made sure that the Enable current location is on too.
Hmmmm so yours updates huh?
AccuWeather does not have that option! I know it sucks. Yea! You can only add the cities you want or go to

That sucks then. Anyone have any hood weather widget that updates?

You get a free Thanks. Clicking all sorts of wrong buttons today...
When I was using it, I had a problem once when it wasn't updating at all. Took me about a week to notice. Removed the widget and added it back in and it started back up fine. But I've switched back to Beautiful Widgets.
Added the Accuweather widget on my homescreen as a test. It was blank after I first dropped it on the screen so clicked on it. The first thing it asked me was if I wanted to use my Current Location and automatically filled it in. Exited out and after a few seconds everything populated.

[Q] "Unable to display weather data" from lockscreen?

So I enabled the option to show current locations weather conditions from the lock screen, however on the lock screen all it says is:
"Unable to display weather data"
Does anyone else have this problem or know of a workaround? Does anyone have the weather conditions working for their lock screen?
Same here. Note 2 and my sg3. Even on official rom. Help us

Hmm mine just did it and I thought it was something with my custom Rom. A couple hours later though and all is fine. . Perhaps it just needs to refresh
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
Been like this ever since I got the phone on Friday. =\ It was like that on the stock ROM and still exists on CleanROM 2.1. I've tried rebooting and everything.... Oh well, I'll just let it sit for a while and see what happens... Hopefully someone can get to the bottom of this soon
same problem here on sg3
I had the same issue on my s2x and what solved it for me was to load the accuweather.com widget onto the homescreen, and update the weather. That got the weather to show up.
I then deleted the widget and the lock screen still shows the weather.
Mine shows up but hadn't updated in days
Hey fellas! I recently flashed a new Sammy ROM and had this problem... Found an easy fix in no time:
Navigate to Settings>Application Manager and clear data for the Weather Daemon and Weather Widget/Weather Widget Main, Force Stop them and then re-add your locations and check again.
Hit Thanks if I helped
Worked!!!!

HTC's Weather Unavailable

The weather/clock widget on my lockscreen says "Weather Unavailable" ! I found it, that if I turn of my location settings, the weather will show up again, but I do not want it to stay on all the time, so what I did is I went to the weather options and added manually my city, hoping that it will no longer be necessary to leave location service on all the time, but NO, that didn't happen, it still says "Weather Unavailable" !
What am I missing ? With any other weather app I seam to be able to add the city manually and not to worry bout the location setting to be on constantly, so is there a way to do the same with HTC's weather widget ?
Thanks

I have no problem finding my city, it is immediately detected by the app, also I am getting the weather info inside the weather app itself, but on the lockscreen widget it just shows "WEATHER UNAVAILABLE"
At first I though that I probably "hibernated" something from Greenify, responsible for updating the weather info, but no! there is nothing that is remotely related to weather widget

Yes I can confirm, it works on ether of those settings ( high accuracy or battery saving). But the location setting is just to determine the location, that's it. After that a mobile data or wifi is required to get the weather info for that area (previously determined by the location service), but I have already added the location manually in to the weather app, but yet it still requires to have the location service On, constantly

Question Weather widget

Seems to have stopped working. Says it needs location access enabled which I've checked and it is. Removed it and put it back on home screen, restarted phone etc... But still won't show any info. If I touch on it then the weather page opens but the widget won't show any info. Was working fine previously, I think it stopped after I got the December update but not totally sure on that.
Anyone got any ideas?
Working here on Dec update.
I had this yesterday and found the issue on Reddit, somebody pointed out a fix, Open Google App, Click Profile picture top right hand corner, settings, location and set it to Always. Mine was set to always before update but magically set it's self to Ask Every Time. Once I changed it to Always it worked.

Same here, did you ever find the Google LLC weather app? Seems its blocked from my S7+.
Please access Privacy from Settings. Check if 'Personalize using app data' is turned on or not. Please turn it on if not. Please access At a glance settings from home page and toggle the weather option off on. Should help.

Strange the large widget still not working here on my pixel 6pro, 4xl and 4a. All up to date.
The pill widget works so does the at a glance but not the jumbo weather widget.
Google app updated and looks like it's fixed.
