[Q] HTC Weather widget not showing city name - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My HTC weather widget is not showing the name of my location. It shows the right temp for the area, but instead of the name of the city, it just says "Current Location"
Any ideas?

Same thing happened to me. If you put more than one city in it will do that or put a city name. Go into the settings and use gps location and not a city name. Also take the widget off of the screen and reinstall it. This worked for me.

Go into settings/ language and keyboard. if you are running miks it will say (HD) English, tap that and then tap English. If you are running another rom just make sure you select English (United States) and presto your city name will be back. This will stick through a regular reboot but it won't stick if you wipe cach anc davlik and you will have to change it to English again.
Hope this helps.

Neither of those worked It was doing this on stock before I even rooted. I rooted and installed Warm Rom and it still does it.

Problem with adding a new city to Weather, cant copy/paste it!

just got my wonderful Blackstone and Im really enjoying it besides the usual slow non user friendly WM bugs/"features"
A problem for me just know is that I cant add my hometown Uppsala to the Weather, I surf to the accuweather site and copy the code for Uppsala and start the weather database and go to Sweden, city, add city, and I get the window up to add Uppsala but I cant paste the weather code from accuweather, there is no copy/paste function in the weather database, neither in the menus and I cant press the screen and get a "mouse" menu for that either. I have tried paste the weather code to notepad so I know its there in the memory.
Anyone got an solution?
Edit : *nevermind*
use this (see attachement)
very nice application.
How do you find the accuweather code?
g
Are you dumb ???? gkagad. On acccuweather.com ...... go to international for outside US
PS: Search a little before asking or nobody will answer.
Besides WeatherDatabaseEditor you also need NETCFv35
Go to www.accuweather.com and typ your city followed by yoyr country.

Actually, I've done everything, step by sep, as you have advised, but neither can I see Saint Bees (UK) in the editor, nor in the TF3D.
Any help?
Sorry, now, somehow it worked.
Thanks
No Code
I've tried to add a city (Squaw Valley) by using the steps stated above but to no avail.
First, I'm not getting a code in my address bar when I type in the city and state. I'm getting this instead -
http://www.accuweather.com/us/ca/sq...recast.asp?partner=accuweather&u=1&traveler=1
So I went into the WeatherDataBaseEditor app on my device and looked at how the other US cities were put in. I typed in the same info with the exception of the city name of course.
The result is Squaw Valley is now in my listings for adding a location but the weather is incorrect and the forecast is also incorrect.
Any help would be much appreciated.
thanx for helping, too bad it doesnt support copy and paste... I aint gonna add a city untill it does
O yeah! I fixed it! Ty kokkie
hi
is it possible to add forecast from anther sits, like: http://weather.weatherbug.com an not only from ACCU?
thx
Just wanted to add, the v1.2 cab works perfectly on my HD

Haha this is Scandinavian humour? Right???
If not, and you are really so lazy you can't be arsed to type twenty characters or so, then fire up the standard windows keyboard (it has a Ctl key) and use Ctl-V to paste it in (that's what I did).

You need use the world weather site, there is a link on the US site homepage.
Hehe ok Ill use that if I need, its mostly because I really dont need another city at this time
Thanks so much for the help gadgetUK437, it worked perfectly!

wich rom have you?
wich procedure have you done?
Hi im not sure if this is right ROM version - 1.18.723.3 (23358) WWE
and i have installed this following progs black dialer, finger keyboard, black calculator, flash player, HD tweak, crystal mail and music.
plz advise.... thks...
i understand that you have go to start/settings/today and use this picture as the background and choose image from your device or storage card?
yes but it could not work.. any idea how can go about this without activating the hard reset?
i have the same problem... :/
just rename the wallpaper you want in the existing one and replace,reset.
Where is the default file located, and what is it called..?
Just go to setting if you are using touchFLO, on the menu that slides below and choose wallpaper (home wallpaper) select no whe it ask to change default wallpaper and choose your picture, don't go to today or change wallpaper from the picture viewer it doesn't work, this problen is not fixed in the original rom.
Bye...

as far as I remember changing it on today would only be seen if you can see the today screen and with TF3D running , you can't see it
TF3D is effectively an app that hijacks the screen so it's background is the one you should change
if you are using TF3D you need to scroll to the settings tab on TF and choose wallpaper there.

How to remove weather from the homescreen clock?

As the title says. I don't use the TF3D weather in Manila 2.1, so it's just messing up my homescreen really... I would so dearly like to get rid of it, but I haven't managed to do so yet, after half an hour or more of searching. I did a regedit:
HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\Weather.EnableCurrentLocation
but it didn't help setting it to 0 and soft resetting. The weather is still there, under the clock, showing me we had sun a couple months ago. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated!
i have found that disabling the Weather tab disables it under the clock.
Hm. Not so here, I have had that weather tab disabeled since I first booted the phone up, but it's still on the today screen.
Noone with relevant info?
The reg edit should have worked.
Turn of My location
HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\weather.EnableCurrentLocation set to 0
But you need to set your clock (home screen manilla) and select my location at the clocks, not your hometown. It will just state "my location" instead of the name of your home town and not show any weather. At least that is what it does on mine.
Give it a try
You helped me in some way actually. Your tip about the manila clock "My location" got me on the right track. I only had "My location" there, so I added another city, selected it and fount the weather database file in Application data\HTC\database and deleted it, then selected "My location" again. Presto
Thanks!
Glad you figured it out and I could be of some help
Cheers
@ mhurg, how did you manage to delete the *.db file in application data/htc/database I am not able to delete it.
Greetz Sascha
You must disable TouchFlow/Sense first, delete the db file, and then re-enable TF/Sense.

wrong location for weather?

i know it's mentioned in the annoyances sticky ....
23. The device sometimes thinks you're somewhere you're not. Gives you the wrong weather and/or time. Submitted by Phil750123.
Workaround: Remove your clock widget and add it back. Manually select your location.

but it's not quite that. i'm in liverpool and all of a sudden the location changes to birkenhead. it says 2/2 and left me flip between the 2 locations but i can only delete liverpool. the option is greyed out for birkenhead.
anyway to remove birky?
--------
ok, removing it and adding it again - but, with choosing 'current location' then means i have liverpool, and liverpool current lcoation entered.
odd but at least no birkenhead any more
The problem i have is the phone says i am in Bamber Bridge, when i am in fact in Leyland. When i search for Leyland, it says no match found. Leyland is a pretty large town (well larger than Bamber Bridge) which is famous for its industry, they should at least add the location!

[Q] Few questions about miui (im new here!)

Hello,
Can u tell me how can i set my location in miui rom? im from Poland and at this one "MIUI.us_ace_2.3.23_Eng_Deo_ZipA_Signed.zip" i cant use my currently location (i need it for weather and auto time). what im doin wrong or what i need to instal? sry for my english!
first, u can change in General Settings/Time Date your Time Zone, uncheck automatic time and choose your time zone manual.
For weather, i mean there ist the weather app, miui use google weather and you must use this app, and select your location for weather.
I think, every weather app you can use automatic location to search for your city by the network or gps, or chosse your city manual.
For more infos about miui for Poland take a look at miuipolska.pl, sorry for my english
