Weather Widget Not Updating - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Having problems with my Google Weather Widget auto-updating. I've got it set to update once every hour. Every now and then, when I turn my phone on, the widget displays "weather unavailable."
This doesn't happen with the Weatherbug widget, but I prefer the clean looks of Google's.
Anyone else having this problem?

Right -- failed to mention this in the original post. The widget immediately updates if you refresh manually.

I had the same problem with the genie widget on my N1 too. I don't think they have changed it. One work around I have found is to open the news and weather app.
Hopefully they update the app.

Mines the same.
As soon as it loses data reception or GPS it loses all its data. Quite annoying as I like to turn the GPS off when i'm not using it... Can't seem to position itself from mobile reception like my previous phones

What is the compass-shaped icon in the HTC Sense notification bar?

This is going to seem like a dumb question, but it's been killing me and I just have to know. I've tried searching around for the answer but haven't been able to formulate the proper search terms to find anything.
Anyway, what is that compass-shaped icon in the notification bar when you are running Sense? No non-Sense builds seem to have it. I've circled it in this image:

Thanks in advance for satisfying my curiosity.
Location services status.
You could have found out what it is in the EVOs manual.

Damn, I went through the manual before posting and missed it. Sorry. Well, thanks for the answers guys.
Is there a way to hide that icon? I really already know if its on or off because what I set it at I don't need to see it every time I read the top bar of my phone.

[Q] Live Wallpaper that is a clock?

has anyone seen a live wallpaper that includes a functional clock, preferably something similiar to this clock in the synergy rom (dont know what he's using)

well thats just the typoclock widget. I would like to see a live wallpaper that functioned as a clock be pretty cool i think
yeah, found it not long after i posted that (the clock that is). i just like the idea of the clock on every page and not eating up widget space.
That would be cool, anyone find it?
You could try and make one yourself with OwnSkin. Look for the app in the market. You can create your own live wallpapers online. Just post it when you're done, of course

OK so I threw together this live wallpaper as a proof of concept. Only took 10 mins and it was my first time using the software. I put a battery percentage on there too, but it got hidden by my dock. So yeah, it's definitely possible.
that looks pretty interesting. i signed up, i'll mess with it later. right now, too tired.

"Edge of Night" theme
It has no widget Otherwise a decent update.
I bet we see one in the next full update.
Any update to this application? Curious if a fix was pushed with a widget included.
This thread is obsolete now. See the latest version here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2218441
They added a widget, but it's still just as goofy with simple UI bugs as the original FC09 VVM app has. (Constant black rounded background behind the app name, and the name "Voicemail" is cut off.)

Compass orientation off in new GMaps?

Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this. Ever since updating Google Maps to the new version with the new UI, compass orientation is always wacky while in 3D mode. See the screenshot below to see what I mean:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This is what it looked like immediately after tapping the location button twice. Even worse, the map doesn't even pan in the direction the dot is facing half the time, but instead moves in the opposite direction.
This doesn't seem to be a problem while in navigation mode, but it is nonetheless annoying.
Apologize if someone already posted about this but I couldn't find one. I've only tested on Rootbox, but I've used many ROMs in the past and in my experience that has never made a difference.

Yep you are correct, mine has been the same. For example completing a whole roundabout before we even get there. Moving to a field even though we're on a marked road. Moving sideways whilst driving forward. Very weird!

how to get weatherbug to display temp next to time?

Hello, on the s20 I can't seem to get live temperatures to display in the notifications bar from weatherbug at the top next to the time. Anybody know why that is?

In Weatherbug settings "Live conditions" must be enabled ... also in phone settings under "status bar", "show notification icons" should be enabled too...

I have both on as you described in your pictures, still no temperatures from any weather program. Other status bar items work, like signal spy. I just cannot seem to get temperature. Any ideas?
I just did check mine work.
