Clock and sometimes weather displaying wrong location

I have had the Incredible since June, up until yesterday I have not had any issues with the built in clock/weather display on the home page.  Yesterday, Sep 27th, it no longer was displaying a local town for the clock but saying Los Angeles with the weather for there.  I first clicked the weather part and did the refresh which did change the weather to say my local location; however the clock still was displaying Los Angeles for the time.  At this point I just turned off the phone then back on and it was all back to the correct listings.  It stayed correct after that.
Then today I was going to check the time in the afternoon and it said the time and temp for Shanghai China.  I am thinking this is the same issue as yesterday so I turn off the phone again, turn back on and it is the correct time and temp location.  This lasts for about 30 seconds and goes back to Shanghai.  I try the refresh on the weather part and it changes but not to my location but to Hong Kong.  I don't know if Shanghai and Hong Kong are in the same time zone or not but the time stayed the same 5am time when it changed.  I try the weather refresh again and it does then change the weather location to my local location but the clock remains on Hong Kong time.  I then went into the settings and location and then proceed to try every variation of VZW Locations Services, Google Location Services, and then Standalone GPS Services.  The last one does change my time back to the correct time but I would prefer to leave it on one of the others as the GPS one I can literally watch the battery drain. 
It has been a couple hours since this occurred and I am now home and it is still giving the time as Hong Kong, with the correct weather for here.  Currently I have switched to GPS as the phone is plugged in so I don't need to worry about draining the battery.  I am hoping tomorrow morning when I switch it back off of GPS it will keep the correct time and weather.
Has anyone else suddenly had this issue, and if so what fixed it?  I have not had any updates on the phone for any apps in several days so I assume nothing else on the phone was changed/altered as I was not playing with the settings lately.

While I like the phone the battery is horrendously bad and when I have had the GPS on in the past it has a noticeable effect on the battery, as in at work I end up having to connect it to my computer to charge the battery a bit.
Either way that still does not really fix the very sudden issue of "phone having a new locationitis".  Why would both the VZW Locations Services and Google Location Services say I am in Shanghai and then Hong Kong.  I did open Google Maps to see where it said I was and that was correct which I would really think would agree with the Google Location Services so that doesn't make much sense why Google does not agree with itself.
It is currently about 3 hours after my initial post and currently the phone is saying with the default weather and the clock I am at the correct location, so it does appear to have corrected on it's own.  But it did the same thing yesterday so I am now thinking it could happen again tomorrow at some point or really how reliable it is to keep the correct location.  I do suppose someone can track me but think I am in China so I can do all kinds of local shenanigans and then say it wasn't me I was in China, check my phone location.

  • Weather displaying incorrect location?

    Other than the compass, and reception issues, I've also had this nagging problem of my Weather Location. And it's really weird too. I work about an hour away from my home. When I'm at work, it shows my Home Location weather, at home, it'll show my work location weather.
    My wife went to out of town for a week, came back, and the weather location stayed in the town she was in for 4 days.
    It didn't matter how many times we refreshed it, tried turning on all the location GPS's, Wi-Fi, everything, and it never updates with our current location.
    Anyone else having this issue?

    I have read elsewhere that turning on Verizon Location Services will help with this.  The problem normally occurs inside where GPS may not get a clean lock and what turning on Verizon Location Services does is use tower assist to spot your location.  Try it and see if that works.

  • HP G72 display problems...sometimes very grainy...and sometimes no display at all.

    Display is grainy sometimes with a blue tint.  Most of the time it will not come on at all.  When an External monitor is hooked up it looks and works great.  Display problem itself or video card problem??

    Hello , Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues, with help from the community! I came across your issue about the display, and wanted to help! If the notebook is working on the external monitor, then perhaps the display cable in your notebook is loose, or needs to be reconnected.  If you are comfortable with the process, you can take the notebook apart, to check if the display cable is properly secure.  You can use the following document to assist you, if needed:HP G72 Notebook PC - Maintenance and Service Guide (Chapter 4, Page 69-70). Here is an additional document, that may be helpful: HP Notebook PCs - Troubleshooting a Notebook LCD Panel Issue (Windows 8/8.1, 7) If you are not comfortable with that process, then you may consider contacting HP Phone Support for additional options.  Please use the following http://www.hp.com/contacthp and create a case for your issue and contact HP.

  • JSP page display wrong time when compared to the server time

    Hi,
    This problem seems to weird but it is happening
    I have web application running where time is displayed in the page. In this application time is very critical. Currently, time is an hour behind the orginal time.
    I checked the server it is displaying proper time.
    As a matter of troubleshooting, I wrote a java program and run the program in the same server, where the application is running. The java program returns me proper time , but JSP is still displaying time an hour behind. To trouble shoot further, I created a test jsp page to just display the time and accessed the time and the jsp displayed wrong time as well, an hour behind.
    I am running[ tomcat 4.0.3 and j2sdk1.4.3 in suse linux enterprise server 9.0
    My Java program
    import java.util.*;
    import java.text.*;
    public class TestDate
    public static void main(String s[])
         try{
              DateFormat DF = new SimpleDateFormat( "dd/MM/yyyy");
    DateFormat DT = new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm aa");
              SimpleDateFormat fmt=new SimpleDateFormat("HH.mm");
              Calendar cal= Calendar.getInstance();
              java.util.Date dt=cal.getTime();
              String curdt=DT.format(dt);
              System.out.println("Server Time" + curdt + "\n");
              int hh = cal.get(Calendar.HOUR);
              int mm = cal.get(Calendar.MINUTE);
              int aa = cal.get(Calendar.AM_PM);
              System.out.println("Time" + hh +":"+mm+":"+aa+"\n");
         }catch(Exception e) {
         e.printStackTrace();
    This display Time3:30:1
    My JSP Page
    <%@ page import="java.util.*,java.text.*"%>
    <%
    Calendar calen;
    calen = Calendar.getInstance();
    int hh=calen.get(Calendar.HOUR);
         int mm=calen.get(Calendar.MINUTE);
         int aa=calen.get(Calendar.AM_PM);
    %>
    <%=hh%> <%=mm%> <%=aa%>
    This display 2 30 1
    When I run Date in linux server it gives 3:30 PM EST 2004
    I am really confused, why this is happening, If you have any solutions or idea please post the solution.

    My guess is that the weirdness is caused by Daylight savings time.
    I will presume that you and the server are in the same timezone :-)
    Alternatively it could be caused by getting a different Locale.
    Try the following
    Print out "date.getTime()" value (ie long representing number of millis)
    They should be the same (or close) in both the app and in JSP
    Try simple date format in your JSP as well - what does that result in?
    Print the calendar object, and look for the difference.
    It might be in Locale, Timezone, or whether DST is set or not.
    Hope this helps,

  • Why is the Apple Weather App wrong for low temps in Albuquerque, NM?  Low temp is always displays about 10 degrees too low.

    Why is the Apple Weather App wrong for low temps in Albuquerque, NM? 
    Low temp is always displays about 10 degrees too low.

    The reason for the problematic weather prediction in Apple is simple and disturbing at the same time.
    1. Traditionally Apple gets its weather data from Yahoo! they do so regardless to the fact that Yahoo is not a weather company, this arrangement has historical reasons (and it has nothing to do with the accuracy or quality of service you as a user are getting from Apple weather).
    2. Yahoo! (not a weather company) gets its weather data from the Weather Channel.
    3. Weather Channel CEO (David Kenny) also serves as Yahoo board member. So good luck changing the Weather Channel Yahoo agreement.
    4. The iPhone build in weather app is one of the world most popular apps, The Weather Channel has no incentive to make the Apple weather app as accurate as The Weather Channel own app.
    The result is – easy to use inaccurate weather app

  • CMFCToolbar and CMFCMenubar displaying wrong tooltips

    Quastion asked also on
    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/29800791/cmfctoolbar-and-cmfcmenubar-displaying-wrong-tooltips
    Hello.
    I am using Visual Studio 2010, but I suspect the bug is still present on the 2013 version, as I compared the winfrm.cpp file and the OnToolTipText are exactly equal on the two files.
    The bug is happening always at the 7th, 8th or 16th element.
    Although separators count as elements for this counting, the tooltips do not appear over them.
    Element can be a textual MENUITEM, a POPUP menu or toolbar button.
    The string table defines are:
        #define IDS_SEVEN            7
        #define IDS_EIGHT            8
        #define IDS_NINE             9
        #define IDS_TEN             10
        #define IDS_ELEVEN          11
        #define IDS_TWELVE          12
        #define IDS_THIRTEEN        13
        #define IDS_FOURTEEN        14
        #define IDS_FIFTEEN         15
        #define IDS_SIXTEEN         16
    and the STRINGTABLE contents are:
        IDS_SEVEN           "Seven"
        IDS_EIGHT           "Eight"
        IDS_NINE            "Nine"
        IDS_TEN             "Ten"
        IDS_ELEVEN          "Eleven"
        IDS_TWELVE          "Twelve"
        IDS_THIRTEEN        "Thirteen"
        IDS_FOURTEEN        "Fourteen"
        IDS_FIFTEEN         "Fifteen"
        IDS_SIXTEEN         "Sixteen"
    So, when I hover with the mouse pointer the 7th, 8th or 16th element I get WRONGLY a tooltip displaying the string with that ID (Example:7th element displays "Seven").
    It happens with all my toolbars and all my menus with a sufficient number of items, including in the toplevel horizontal menubar.
    I discovered that the guilty function is:
    BOOL CFrameWnd::OnToolTipText(UINT, NMHDR* pNMHDR, LRESULT* pResult)
    as the nID local variable does not get the ABSOLUTE ID of the Command, but the POSITIONAL order of the button, starting with 1 instead of 0.
    If I would move the strings IDs out of that range, whenever a user wants to add new strings, the Visual Studio Resource Editor would see that space free and use it, filling it again. And the problem would happen again. So, it is not a valid solution.
    I could also define strings for all commands. But as we are maintaining four TFS branches at the same time and the change needs to go to all branches, this change would be potentially very dangerous when doing merges after.
    So, please what solution do you recommend to not display those stupid tooltips?
    UPDATE: I didn't copy the string table exactly as it was. It was like this:
        IDS_SEVEN           "Seven\nSeven"
        IDS_EIGHT           "Eight\nEight"
        IDS_NINE            "Nine"
        IDS_TEN             "Ten"
        IDS_ELEVEN          "Eleven"
        IDS_TWELVE          "Twelve"
        IDS_THIRTEEN        "Thirteen"
        IDS_FOURTEEN        "Fourteen"
        IDS_FIFTEEN         "Fifteen"
        IDS_SIXTEEN         "Sixteen\nSixteen"

    In the update I put a stringtable more similar to the one I had. I had not noticed before a common feature of 7, 8 and 16 th strings: they all had '\n' characters in their contents.
    I think nobody will create a menu with more than 512 menuitems nor toolbars with more than 512 buttons, so my solution was to change all strings containing '\n' characters with an ID below 512 to numbers above 512.
    And it works.

  • When combine multiple PDFs into one, some letters are missing and display wrong letter

    Hi all. I get a problem with combine multiple PDFs into a single PDF document. There are some PDF documents and they are working fine to open each document separately. But after I use Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard to combine them into one, some letters are missing and some display wrong letter (e.g. "forums" display "fo ums"). Our company has Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard, Adobe Acrobat 7 Professional and Standard. But all of them have some problem. Does anyone have idea for that? Please help me! Thanks very much!

    I have a similar situation, but my PDFs look fine in Acrobat Pro 8,Acrobat Reader 8, and Apple preview, but are missing letters in Acrobat Pro 7. I think it stems from the files being combined all having the same font, but each having a unique subset stored in the respective files, but with the same name (and ID?), and when they are combined, the character sets are getting hosed somehow.

  • I am using Firefox 4.0 Beta 10. It doesn't start immediately after I click on the Firefox button located in my shortcut bar. And sometimes it even doesn't open. I don't know why it occurs, so please look into this matter. Thanks!

    Try disabling hardware acceleration in your Firefox settings and see if it helps:
    From the Firefox menu, go to '''Options''' and click the '''Advanced''' panel, then select the General tab. Clear the box in front of "Use hardware acceleration when available" so that it is unchecked, then restart Firefox.

  • Coverflow and Front Row display the WRONG artwork

    I have tried all the answers I can find and also some more in depth ones as well....
    (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1284758)
    I have made sure there is only ONE artwork in the 'get info' of the track (the correct one)
    I have deleted the Album art folder (download and local) in the iTunes music folder
    I have deleted cache and preferences where I could find them for both iTunes and Front Row
    I have restarted!
    YET the same **** WRONG artwork still shows in the COVERFLOW and when using FRONT ROW to access your music with the remote!
    Can't find anything about this from Apple.... Surely this is an easy fix for Apple......?
    The last changed artwork (by modify date) is the one that coverflow and Front row should use...???
    iTunes displays the correct artwork, 'get info' shows there is only ONE artwork (the correct one)
    I have deleted everything I can think off and yet Coverflow and Front Row still display the old, incorrect artwork! and get this... if I delete the artwork completely, so it is the default "no artwork" icon that itunes displays Frontrow and coverflow STILL display the old incorrect one!
    Reading these forums I am amazed that something as basic and integral to the iTunes/iLife experience has been so blatently ignored and left to the users/forums to muddle through!
    Come on Apple! get your act together! this is crazy...
    I am NOT the only one with this problem!
    ANYWAY.... any advice?

    Me Also.
    Right now I only notice it on one album.
    Both the song playing and the artwork in the info box are correct, it's only coverflow that is wrong.

  • No MSI info and MSI clock speed flags in display properties

    My problem is really curious. Several days ago I bought new harddrive and made clear instalation of Win98 SE. After that I installed VIA 4 in 1, on-board audio drivers, the new DirectX and then DetonatorXP drivers for my G4 Ti 4600. My problem is that in display properties I miss two flags descrabing my nVidia card - MSI information and MSI clock. System has detected card correctly. In advanced display properties I can adjust OpenGL and Direct 3D settings, AA settings, etc.
    My system is stable in every game and benchmarks, so it means that card works correctly. Powerstrip detects core and memory speeds correctly, under adapter options in this program I see 128 MB video memory, AGP 4x enabled, fastwrites enabled - everything is correct.
    But in display properties I do not see MSI information and MSI clock speed flags. Why ??? I have also reinstalled VIA 4 in 1 and Detonator XP drivers - it did not help.
    Before byuing my new harddrive (80 GB Seagate,7200rpm) I had 30 GB IBM,5400rpm. Windows 98 SE installed on this harddrive detects card correctly too including MSI information and MSI clock speed flags. Now I miss it. Any idea ???
    On both harddrives I have installed DetonatorXP 29.42 then I have updated to 30.82
    My system:
    MSI K7T Turbo 6330 3.0
    1,33 GHz Athlon T-bird
    512 MBRAM
    G4 Ti 4600
    80 GB Seagate BarracudaIV 7200rpm
    Win98 SE

    I installed the MSI Drivers from the MSI cd. All ok but the clock and info tabs were missing. I upgraded the driver from msi site to 3000 and no tabs.
     X(  
    Before the GF4 i had a gf2 and i realized i forgot to uninstall the nvidia drivers before installing the new card's drivers. I uninstalled them and reinstalled the msi driver 3000. But no clock nor info tabs.
    Can someone help me? Are those tabs needed?
    I'm using xp pro, intel p4 1.8 on motherboard intel d850md, 1gb ram.
    Also the 3d turbo experience gives me msivga.ocx initialization error.
    Thanxs.
