Google Now weather dissapeared - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

For over a week now I have not seen the Google now weather card or the notification. Tried resetting Google now and also restored a backup and it's still the same.
I'm currently running 4.2.1. Anyone else having this issue?

I had this happen too. Try in Google Now --> menu --> refresh.

Tried that already and tried turning google now off and on again but still not working.

Same here. Driving me crazy. Have tried hard resetting the phone to no avail. All settings are as they should be as far as I can tell.

I've given up on having it permanently placed on the notification drop down. It's a now you see me, now you don't game for them and us. If it's not there, I just swipe up to see the weather

Open Google now, click the three dots on weather card, click settings, under notifications it is probably set to off. Clock and change to low priority. Should be back

My settings are exactly the same as yours and still no weather card.

Weather card is back now so I think it was a google problem.

[Q] Stock Jellybean weather notification in notification tray.

The day before I noticed I had a weather notification in my notification tray that looked amazing. I'm assuming it was stock since I have no weather apps or widgets installed but now the notification is gone. Does anyone know why or when it shows up or how to get it back?

This is apart of Google now.
Edit: In order for it to reappear you have to turn Google now off and then on. I believe since this is a alpha build everything is not worked out so Google now is not fully functional

It is presumably supposed to open up the weather app for you when weather changes or you move to a different location with different weather. I don't think you can make it a persistent notification.
further info on this issue
I had the same issue/question - this is the only thread I found in a day of searching. The stop-Google-Now-restart method didn't immediately work. Looking under Google Now settings in the weather settings there is a notifications toggle that was set to off. The other option is "low priority". Toggling Google Now off-on alone without this switched will not work.
turn off and on

App showing different looks

Hi,
I've been experiencing a very weird issue lately. Yesterday I opened whatsapp and the UI was different. The contact list option was at the bottom along with 2 other options, which is otherwise at the top right corner. I thought maybe its a newer version but when I checked today, the ui was back to the older one. I checked on Google play in case there's an update which somehow got mixed up, but there wasn't. Then I remembered it had happened before with Facebook. A month back the fb app showed a different outlay which went back to older one the next time I opened it.
Anybody has an idea about it or anything similar?

Changed your DPI lately? Certain DPI will, if coded in the app, change the layout. I.e I'm using 240 DPI and the messaging app has 'new message' at the top rather then the bottom for standard 320dpi, same as gmail labels and options have shifted to the top also.

yup i noticed it with facebook several times, even took a screenshot of it .. i always thought of it as a "version in preparation" , and thought it was only a fb thing

Yesss! This is the exact same UI I saw once. Similar thing happened with whatsapp. I wonder what this is.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
I had that same Facebook UI the other day!! I thought the app updated.
Weird. Now it's gone.
Actually u can replicate it with fb. Just log out while u're not on ur news feed or timeline pages, for example visit a friend's timeline, and then log out, then log in again. It may not work every time, but i seem to be able to replicate it that way
P.s. usually the ui changes to the old one (the regular one) spontanously after a few clicks.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Thanks @rayiskon. I think I reinstalled fb when that happened. I guess your method would also work. However, the different whatsapp ui was actually better and more convenient, don't know why they changed it if it really was an older version of it.

Not a problem. I am looking for anyway to give back to the awesome people of XDA!
Pretty awesome
Sweet, Holo Locker fixed my lock screen problem. I don't have to enter my pattern each time finally. That's the only one I really used from this haha. Thanks so much!
Just a note: The 4.1 Messaging app does have some issues. Some contacts don't appear as they should, just numbers. And I think MMS was broken?
thank you so much, i've been missing the hell out of my galaxy nexus.

This 4.1 Messaging has MMS working. One of the few I found that had it working. Haven't had the contact issue thing, everything is working fine.
Hm, interesting. MMS works, but I still have the contacts issue Oh well. Thanks for your hard work!

How did you get that to work? I tried setting the 'Lock timer' in 'Lock screen' under system settings to various settings other than 'immediately' as well as 'power button instantly locks' to on or off to no avail. All that happens is when I turn the phone on, it just immediately shows the app I recently had open.

The Holo lock screen shows for me, just wait a few seconds and it should be there. If i do too quickly, then it just gives me my app too lol.

It's possible we are describing two different use case scenarios. Do you have 'enable security lock' enabled in holo locker settings?
I would like it so that I can specify a lock timer in system settings to only bring up the pattern unlock after a set amount of time while at the same time always bringing up the holo-locker screen when I press the power button to turn the screen on (before the pattern/pin unlock comes up). As far as I know, the built-in slide to unlock won't show when you have a pattern or pin lock enabled (non-rooted). Sounds confusing when typing it out, does what I'm trying to describe make sense to anyone?
Not sure. I just cleared all my credentials and got the swipe back.

OK, I don't know what I did, but it finally started working the way I wanted to. Strange, I tried rebooting, waiting a while between turning the phone off/on, different setting configs and nothing seemed to work. Thanks anyway, just glad it works now.
Audio Improvement
I initially posted in the wrong thread, do you guys have any idea about DSP manager working on this phone yet? An almost perfect phone, save for the sub-par audio.

Annoying

Recently I've flashed a couple roms and my phone started doing this thing where it reads (outloud) the number and the text that I recieve.
It's quite annoying, I've been through all the settings and can't find anything pertaining to it.
Can anyone help me with this?

Sms popup doesn't read aloud. Check svoice settings I forget what its called but theres a audio option in there that reads whats on the screen. I think its called voice mode or audible mode or something buried in the svoice settings

All else fails, nandroid and add apps one by one. What ROM(s) are you flashing?

Any chance this is a feature that got turned on in Google voice?

It has to be a feature in touchwiz. I work for sprint and one of our display note 2's is doing the same thing. We can't figure it out either.

Maybe so. I usually stick with AOSP. Never had an experience like that. I'm not touting one over the other. Just curious what sammy feature would do that. I'll see what I can dig up later.

Are you talking about when you turn the device on and you see wifi go away and come back?
Yeah, turn off display > wait a while > turn display on after not receiving any data notifications (email, Google voice, etc) > watch wifi icon go away then reappear and reconnect to AP and notifications come rolling in.

thats a power saver thing. This is smart sync. 2 horrible inventions by HTC. Im still trying to figure out how to hook the power saver crap. Smart sync is more of deep sleep between midnight and 7am. maybe i need to clarify that in OP
