Hey I was wondering is there anyway to make the stock Samsung accuweather widget update live to your current location when you go from one city to another. I find it annoying that I have to go add everytime. I recall HTC sense updating on it's own. Is there an alternative widget similar to the stock one I don't need the time on it.

i use Fancy Widget, it auto updates pretty good, gets the data from weather bug or google weather
alternatively the stock android News & Weather app also can auto update
and i also use the Weather Eye from The Weather Network

which is way more accurate than any of the above

Hi,
I have seem to have over-written the stock accuweather widget that somes with the i9100. Is there anyway to get it back? I've had a look around for it online and can't seem to find it...
Any help would be appreciated...!
Cheers
Dan
how is it called? is it an apk? if yes i could extract it from mine and send it to you, because the same happened to me with the browser ;-)
Go to app manager and select the accuweather app, there will be an option there to "uninstall update". That will restore the original widget.
(I assume you overwrote it with the samsung apps update, that's what I did)

i think this is what you looking for
Does anybody know if it is possible to use this widget with the ADW Launcher (EX)? It seems to work okay in 2x1 mode, but as soon as I try to resize it (4x1 would be my preference) the widget goes haywire - the background won't fit the new size.
Everything works with the TouchWhiz-Launcher, so I guess the way the widget was coded prevents it from being displayed correctly.
Any idea how to fix it? Ive tried removing and replacing the widget. Not sure what else i can do.
Which weather widget are you referring to? I tried the accuweather (i think that's what comes with the phone), but wasn't what I wanted.
Anyways, you may also want to consider other weather widgets on market. I found 3D Digital weather clock and also Android Weather on market and found I like the Android Weather better - it offers transparency, shows location, date/day, time and current temp and weather condition.

Yup, I do mean the stock one. I tried uploading a picture of it thru the xda app, but it keeps hanging. Thanks for the tip, I'll try Android Weather.
Update: the ota update for 2.3.6 fixed the issue.
I have the google news and weather widget displaying the weather on my home screen. It's a great widget and all but for some reason at night it still shows a sun. Is there no night weather icons built into the widget? why is it always showing a sun even at night?
Night icons are actually built in to the apk but I hasn't ever displayed them. Going all the way back to eclair when it was released.

hmm i wonder why that is? So it's been that way for a while then I assume. any way to modify it? or is there a better weather widget?
I used to have a weather widget which was split between the actual (local) weather and the forecast in one widget It was more or less Accuweather quick and regular in one, For some stranger reason I cannot find it anymore..(after flashing back and forth between ROMS ) I thought is was in my Rom (Remics), but it's not there (anymore?) I also believe it's from accu weather, Any1 have a clue???
Wheather widget

I have also faced the same issue several times when switching between ROMs. Any idea to solve it?
Thanks.
Deleted my s planner widget in the process of debloating my bell 4.1.1 rom. The application still works, the widget does not show up however. Does anyone have a copy of this widget they can upload. Ive been searching for a while and found a old version of it but that didnt seem to work so I am looking for the one that comes with the 4.1.1 release.
Thanks
just download one of the k3 based roms from development and copy them out of the zip file.

Are you sure you deleted it then? The S Planner 4x4 calendar widget only works on TouchWiz launcher. If you use any other launcher (Nova, Go Launcher, ADW, etc.), then only the smaller 2x1 widget shows up. That's because some of the Samsung widgets make use of the TouchWiz framework, and other launchers can't do that.
I'm using ADW right now, but I really like the large S Planner widget. I considered going back to TouchWiz, but I'd lose some other features that I like (like scrolling wallpaper).
So that explains why I can't see some of then other widgets when using nova. For example, I think the weather widget isn't available.

It is infact deleted. I checked the subdir its supposed to be in. I must have deleted it when I ran a debloater. I am on 4.1.1 with touchwiz only and I have root. My data plan isnt very big and im working of my phone right now so I thought someone may be able to pull it off their phone and upload it. Pm me if you are able to do this.
