[Q] Sense Weather & Widget

A little over 3 months ago I moved from Kokomo, Indiana to a town in Kentucky. I have changed my phone number and have a local number. I am having an issue getting the weather widget to the right city no matter what rom I flash. It keeps wanting to switch back to my old location of Kokomo. The town I live in doesn't come up as one because well I live in a small farm town. It's getting pretty irritating. Anyone else experience this and how do I fix it?
Note: This seems to happen when I am on my home wifi. I am sitting here trying to duplicate it. On 3G it goes to the right city. On wifi it is defaulting to another city.
Thanks for the assistance.

Shut off only message notifications on facebook

since i use the multiprotocol im client trillian, i dont need facebook to send me notificaations when i get messages, but they only have the option to turn off message notifications temporarily. Is there some fix somewhere?
There is a setting somewhere in Facebook that lets you turn off text notifications completely

I would love to know if there is a solution to this too. They only allow you to turn off message notifications for 1 hour, or until 08:00 - they clearly think that message notifications should be essential for everyone.

Not from the phone, but a pc, you have more notification control that you can pick and choose notifications. Account > settings..

I have searched as much as i could about it and nothing pops up even close to a Samsung account update for gs3. No clue hopefully its good and no hidden programs for Samsung to spy.

Mine has been that way since I got the phone and even after the 4.1.2 update. Talked to tech support and went to an at&t store and no one could help me. Got fed up and finally downloaded an email app, k-9 mail and haven't looked back. I now get all my email notifications, it also has other neat features and customization options.

Failed to sign in to yahoo error

So this phone has been alerting me like crazy saying my yahoo login has failed. Never had it happen on my other phones so didnt know if it was a known issue or not. Anyone have an idea why this keeps happening?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
No idea. But if you find out let me know. I have had it on this phone and my e4gt. Its a pain.

I have gotten that a few times before. I'm guessing it must be a Yahoo issue?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
Of it is a yahoo issue its a limitied issue. My wife has had yahoo on her phone for years and has yet to have any problems. Her phone is rooted as well. Or maybe its a yahoo issue with samsung software. She has never had a samsung phone.

I've always had HTC, prior to this phone. I never recall this happening previously. I get it every so often on my GNII though.

It's a Samsung issue. I've been experiencing this on every Galaxy phone I've ever owned. On HTC phones it's never an issue. Just ignore it when it happens, it'll go away when the Samsung email server is done being retarded. Also if you click on the notification it'll ask you to enter your password again, just ignore it because you don't have to. Either don't click on the notification and clear it out or back out of the password section if you already clicked on it. Makes no sense to key it in because it's just going to fail again as the correct password was already set when it failed.

My theory is that the Samsung email app is a bit too proactive in alerting about Yahoo sign in errors where other email apps do not. I get them too.
I also have k-9 mail and have noticed that when i have it set to check email at certain time frames and yet i get emails much after their time stamps sometimes. This is perhaps because it couldn't sign in to poll/check for email at the set time (for whatever reason, either on k-9 mail's part or Yahoo's servers) and so just waited for the next polling to retrieve emails.
I have the same issue and it is driving me crazy sometimes I feel like throwing the phone as far as I can cause I get the alert a lot. The thing that I do not understand is that it may not do it for a hrs or a day or so, but there are sometimes it is constantly going off everyone is still having this issue?
I use the Yahoo Mail app and have never had that come up in almost a year.
Try their app over the stock email app and see if that fixes.
