On my Desire Z i have a HTC Widget called "HTC News" which i use a lot to get my news.
However the 17th of December at 1:48PM this widget/app decided to stop working.
I havent received any news since this time. If i tap update in the htc news app it just dosnt get anything, like there haven't been any news since that day. The Apps settings is set to update everytime the app open up and every 30 minuttes. If i do a sync it dosnt get anything either.
If i however add some new RSS it is working inside the app but not on the widget. The widget just loads forever..
I know the RSS links are correct as they work on my Google Reader which they've been importet from. They have also worked for about two weeks before this startet happening.
Anybody else experiencing something like it? Or even better - knows a solution to it?

Delete / re-add widget?
Allready tried that

Yeah -- I think its just not that well-written of an app/widget.
I tried reinstalling, and likewise it still refused to update. then I tried clearing out the user data -- now when I add the widget it just goes to the Subscription window and sits on Loading.... forever.
Removed and now I'm using the android "news and weather" widget.

Hello everyone I am new here. Just bought my desired Desire yesterday.
I think there is something wrong with the HTC calendar widget. I have 3 all day events: on the 16th, 17th and 18th and the smallest widget on the homescreen shows the one from the 17th not the 16th... what am I doing wrong?
Thank you,
BTW can you not love this phone?
Can someone try it on their device and tell me if it screws up the order too?

Did you ever fix this problem? I'm having a similar issue in that I have an event on the 24th, and one from the 25th to the 11th, and for a while it was showing the one on the 24th, but now it shows the one starting on the 25th. Apparently there's other calendar widgets on the market so I might try one of those instead.

I have this very seldomly. Workaround for me: Uncheck the appointment as "all day appointment". Save. Enter Calendar again and mark it as "all day". Like i said it only happened a few times but this one helped.

Thanks for the suggestion. I checked and actually neither of my events were 'all day' anyway. The later one spans multiple days but has a defined start and end time. I tried making it 'all day' and changing it back but it didn't have an effect. Hopefully after these events pass it'll sort itself out. And in any case I might try the Pure Calendar widget (though since it isn't free I'll need to work out how to pay for stuff on market, it'll probably be obvious - they don't tend to make it difficult for you to part with your cash ).
Hi,
I can confirm this annoying behavior, and that the suggested solution works in most cases. I had to delete and re-create the event a few times to get it to work though.
Maybe this should be reported to the HTC Sense team as a bug report? Does anyone know the procedure to do this?
Best wishes,
Tobias
Try Gemini calendar and its own widget. It is free on the market.

Hi,
does anyone know if this is fixed in Froyo, or could anyone check it out?
Unfortunately, the issue also seems to happen on events that are not spanning multiple days at all and that is really annoying, so that the widget becomes kind of unusable.
Thanks!
Hi,
Does anyone know where HTC gets the list of places from for the built-in weather app?
I'm trying to add Calais and Le Touquet (both of which are in the default iPhone weather app) but they are not available on the HTC app, grrr.
Sent from my HTC Desire using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
I'm finding this strangely limiting as well. Letting the weather app find my location works flawlessly, but if I try and enter those same locations which it found, there's nothing there... wierd.
please search before creating a new thread, there are several existing posts about this issue & what HTC have said in reply.
Sent from my HTC Desire using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
Well I've just trawled through 19 pages and I'm none the wiser....
I turned it off, because it doesnt have any smaller locations, and the clock thing on the front screen. Kept getting in the way, opening the weather thing whenever you got a finger close to it and having two clocks on the same screen looked stupid...
JAmes.

Both of those locations appear to be included within Weatherbug, which I've been trying out as I couldn't find a place in the HTC app for a forecast and also I wanted to specify locations rather than current location. Firstly I know what the weather is doing in my current location and secondly it was just generating extra traffic whilst out and about.
I don't think Weatherbug is as easy on the eye, but it has a choice of widgets and is far more informative, so worth a look at the freebie version imho.
Did any of you receive yesterday some notifications from HTC Hub (two green HTC icons) that some widgets and addons are available?
After I tapped the notifications, I couldn't find any new HTC widgets, but I landed on a page with the choice to download Picasa and LinkedIn for Sense. I tried to install LinkedIn, it all seemed fine, but no changes to were made to Sense. I guess the installation failed. I was kicked out of that add-on page too.
Afterwards, I couldn't find those two add-ons anymore in HTC Hub. Anyone else experienced this? Can I still install those two in any way, or should we just wait for HTC to publish them again?
Linkedin should reflect in the contacts and FriendStream. Picasa is supposed to be in the gallery but it seems to be not working.
Try clearing the HTC hub app data and cache then resync. The notifications should appear again.

it seems that both plugins are now in "HTC Likes", but again I can't manage to install Picasa Web Album.
I'll try cleaning the data and resync. But those apps didn't appear in HTC Likes for me yet, I only have the 4-5 HTC widgets that were there from the beginning (and other apps from other providers).
Have exactly the same problem. LinkedIn installation failed in middle, had to remove it later one hence it was reporting status like "not installed, or missing files". Picasa one was not possible to download at all.
Now I can't find any of those. Will try to check the HTCLike and let you know if that works.
Tried, no success. The plugins are there, but nothing happens. Try to cleaned the cache as well.
Was anyone successfull installing at least one of those?
I was able to install "LinkedIn for HTC Sense".
- LinkedIn contacts sync-ed in People app
- LinkedIn updates in FriendStream
- Post updates to LinkedIn via FriendStream
For "Picasa Web Album", I raised a ticket to HTC. I got a stupid response:
--- start
Dear [...],
Picasa Web Albums is not from HTC and there maybe some problems with its server. We would advise you wait patiently for the server back to work again.
Regards,
HTC
--- end
A real "nonSense".
Having the same picasa issue here as well.
After the system update I have both plug-ins installed and working. I don't remember if I actually installed them myself or they were already there.
Very excited by the LinkedIn feed in Friendstream! We don't yet have a robust LinkedIn app (beta version is a first step, but it's very basic and DroidIn UI is a bit fugly) so this is perfect.
Same problem
I have the same issues as darthmelk had before the update. Now, after installing the update, the problem still exists. Anyone else? And any ideas how to fix this?
Morning,
Using ARHD 2.1, working brilliantly bar one small thing.. I would normally ask on the thread but it seems its a little heated in there with people desperately waiting for v3.0...
My Facebook sync doesn't seem to like syncing up any more. I tried flashing to LeeDroid 2.2.3, then tried Buzz 1.3.5 but no luck. When it does sync up, my FriendStream widget says 'no recent updates', my Handsent messaging also doesn't put Facebook names to numbers. So Im guessing the Facebook link or update function is buggy?
Is anyone else having this problem? Is there a fix?
Thanks for reading!
I think this was reported in the news recently.
Google has withdrawn its support for Facebook, this is due to Facebook being able to collect loads of data about you via a Google API. But Facebook does not allow the opposite, as no API exists.
Where I read this mentioned that it was likely only to affect the Nexus S at first, due to it having the latest Android version.
Ohh... sad times.. Thanks for reply.
I have been using Zooper pro forever now and I made the widget shown in this photo a few months ago and it worked fine, all of the data was shown including the current condition and temp, but for some reason or another it just shows "unknown" for the condition and "??" for the temp.
I have done everything I can think of to fix this issue, including changing the weather provider, checking my location settings and making sure they were set to GPS, wifi and cellular data and I've even gone so far as uninstalling and reinstalling Zooper to try to fix this.
Anyone know what would cause this and how to fix it?
Up...i've got same problem
got the same problem, but fixed for me.
I thought its broken, because i really often change and test different Roms.
i changed weather provider in Zooper Settings from yahoo to Yr.no including update weather information and that works on me.
Tried to change back, but yahoo and openweather dont work on me... So now i use Yr.no and it works
Having problems here too for adding a new location. Each time I use the search, it just shows up 'not found' , even the larger cities. Can't seem to get it to work anymore on all of the services, yahoo, open weather nor yr.no. The location I had set up though, seems to work fine.
Does anyone know if this is going to be updated? From my understanding yahoo is not available anymore, but i had been using open weather, which worked just fine for me.
btw - I'm getting a timeout error on openweathermap.org, maybe that has something to do with it?

The only provider that even kind of works for me is yr.no, but when I selected that provider it showed the current condition as "Tornado", so I don't think it's accurate at all.

I found this on the zooper website. It just says to try other weather providers and if that doesn't work to wait for upcoming updates. How long should we wait? The app hasn't been updated in over a year (March 12, 2015)
Sent from my SM-N920T using XDA-Developers mobile app
Strange thing here though. It seems that on my tablet, i can still add new locations. I have no idea why and why not on my phone.
Well, I just upgraded my phone to Android 6.0 and now it's working for the default weather provider. Weird.

Does Zooper need all location methods to be tuned on to work, like GPS, WiFi and Mobile Networks?
I alaways use location: GPS only, because of battery saving, but this can not be done and have Zooper widget working?
For me it looks like I need to use all, but why is this?

The Developers have stopped updates for the app and it is a problem at their end, if you paid for the app, you can request a refund as it is faulty and not what you paid for.
I have recently noticed that when I set location in Zooper widget, only Yr.no works now for weather information. It's not often I choose a widget with weather info and location but today I did. Before I used to use Open Weather map and the weather used to show up fine for the given location. Now it only shows "Unknown" and "??". The same applies for Yahoo!
I'm guessing it's because I'm using a newer phone than previously and it's not supported. Plus the fact that Zooper isn't get updated by the developers.
Problem fixed
Hey,friendss I just solve the problem if u r also facing the issue of weather unknown and temp. ? Then change youe weather provider,i had change it to yr.no and within a second problem had solved .

Thank you for the OP on this thread - found a solution to my issue by changing provider to yr.no.
Have the same problem & been having this problem 4 a while now... Sucks bc it's made me abandonen zooper all together switching to KWGT... I can also get the weather to show with yr.no BUT it dosent display the correct info. I can also add a location but it dosent save it... it also has some location already in there like India or some **** says it's 89° & sunny right now... I live in Cali & it's about 45° and 45min to 12am... LoL

You are a savior mate! Thanks.
Problem with "Tornado" fixed
Good news guys, I found a solution in German Forum how to replace the Word "Tornado" with actual weather conditions.
All Credits go to this: Guy!
If you want to get rid the word "Tornado" simply edit the Text and adjust the german words in your language (with google translate) and it will show the actual weather conditions!
Sturm=Storm
Regen=Rain....
