location displaying UK instead of town.

Have you tried using the wireless/mobile networks and not GPS to find location in the weather widget?

Why don't you use a task killer like Advance Task Killer, it's free on the market, that should help you, also if you don't need that app just remove it.
Just follow the steps on this link.

ATK won't help him at all, System Panel can already kill apps. The problem is that the app shouldn't be staying alive the entire time. There's something else wrong.
Have you done any research as to what that process is?
I've read it could have something to do with GPS but everytime system panel shows it running my sync icon shows up... Idk..

If com.htc.bgp has something to do with location services (according to Google), and (iirc) HTC has Weather listed in Accounts and Sync, and Weather uses location services....
Disable Weather in Accounts and Sync?
Worth a shot.
i also have the problem with com.htc.bgp.
I don't have anything to do with weather in accounts and sync.
all I have in there is my 2 mails.
I don't even have htc weather in my rom. no sense either.
any other ideas to what I can do to stop that error message? its really annoying.
"Clear Data" of the Calendar also works for the CPU usage of com.htc.bgp

Android calendar - Facebook content

Facebook calendar not showing on my android. It's showing in more setting calendars. But nothing showing as actual content... anyone any idea?

You might have to use a Facebook app like FdCal or something like that. I wasn't able to get the to show until I did that.
It was all there before, but showed about three entries for each person... cleared the calendar storage to try and reset all the duplication and only a few entries came back. Don't understand why I only have a few Facebook birthdays showing now...

Just counted up... 6 birthdays are there randomly in the year.... bit there loads missing... no idea why only a few synchronized

I think it just takes time for some reason... got loads more birthdays appearing now I left it a few days...

Weather Widget

Anyone know how to change the weather widget came with the ION to search for GPS location (moved with device) instead of a fixed location ? I have tried out a few weather widgets in the Play Market, still like the default - simple and elegant. Thanks.
You have to have Google location services enabled. Took me a year to figure that out on my Play.

Where do find google services option? Isn't that the same as GPS Satellite? I had that checked still don't see any option in the weather widget beside entering city name.

I donĀ“t think you can with the Ion widget. I had to install the Weather Channel program, when you configure its widget you can set it for current location. But the widget sucks, so now I use it from the App menu only.
