Stock weather widget - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Hi just want to ask fellow members about the stock weather app. Mine is not updating until I refresh the weather widget. I set it to refresh every hour but it doesn't auto update. Sometimes I would see the weather widget was last updated 12hrs ago and will only update when I hit the refresh button. I tried to install and re install the widget but no luck. Any advice and help will be appreciated much.

[Q] Sense 3.0 lockscreen question

Does anyone know if there a way to change the mail application on the lock screen to Handcent? The only time I use the default app is to send MMS because Handcent wont send them for some odd reason.
I have already tried the 'Replace default maill application' setting in Handcent and it doesnt do anything that I can see.
Press menu > personalize > lock screen, scroll over to the one you're using so its selected, press settings, then you should be able to long press the sms app, then change it.

Interesting, I rarely use it, but when I did, it popped up in about five seconds.

[Q] Disable auto lock screen

I've got a Galaxy Note 2 GT-N7100. Do you know how to stop automatic screen lock on Android 4.1.1? I can't download GTA 3 as the screen lock interrupts it's setup download process.
If you install widgetsoid you can do it from there. It allows you to extend the screen on time or also has a stay awake command. There is also a separate command to disable auto screen lock as well.
It's free. Have fun.

You could go to the settings menu, scroll all the way to the bottom, enter the developer options. Then check the box that says stay awake during charging. Then leave your phone on the charger so that it won't sleep while you are downloading. Please press THANKS if I assisted you.
Now I use Domination ROM which allows you to disable this in options. There is an app called Screebl which could be configured to solve this problem. It's an app that keeps the phone awake depending on the angle it's held at. Prop the phone up at an angle and problem solved.

SW3 app remains focused

Using Golfshot with SW3 I load it and it then disappears once phone fades off to watch and I then have to reload it. The watch seems to do the same with other apps. Do I have to set something somewhere so app remains focused/always active? Or perhaps this is a developer bug. Developer not responding. Appreciate any advice.

If app has no setup for keep screen active they close when dimm mode.
Tickit has a setup p to keep active. Evernote is made to stay active, Tick Tick can not stay active......
Not sure what you're saying. Golfshot has no such option. Are you suggesting there's a third party app that allows this or just giving me your list of apps that stay active? I can't find an app called tickit. Cheers
Bubble launcher has an option to launch and pin open an app by double tapping it.
Thanks that'll do it.

How to disable single app from updating with no menu button?

Hi -
I have the need to disable just a single app from updating from Google Playstore. On my Galaxy S4 I pull up my apps in Google Playstore, select an app, then hit the lower left button (menu button) and an option comes up to select/unselect auto-update. But on my Galaxy Tab S 8.4, that button doesn't work the same way, and nothing comes up. I also tried using Xposed Additions to program that button to a single press button that triggers menu, but that doesn't seem to trigger it either (even though it does trigger menu for some apps like Chrome).
Is there another trick to unselect auto-update?
Thanks in advance for any help!!
Go to the play store, swipe right from the left side of your screen, hit settings and theres an option for auto update for all apps.
For a single app, just search the app and go to the app and hit the 3 dots on the top right.

Thank you, but I need to disable for only one app while leaving enabled for all the others. Is there a way to do this?

Hit the 3 dots on the right top and uncheck auto update. It will disable auto update for that app only

How to disable tilt-to-watch?

I'm looking for a way to disable the function based on accelerometer for turning on the display by the wirst.
I'd like to bring the display just by tapping or pressing the button.
I've set display always on and gestures off.
Is there a way to disable the accelerometer?
