Weather location?

I just got my TB 2 days ago. I had to remove the battery to get to the SD card so I could transfer pics off my old phone to this one. After I put the battery back in, it changed my weather location to Mill Valley. I am in Buffalo, NY. I have tried adding my location under weather, but it says my city is not found. My location however is correct when I go under maps. How do I get my correct location back? The VZW Location Services and Google Location Services are checked to "on". I have also gone under Manage Applications and tried clearing the data for the HTC Weater Sync Provider...I saw in another forum that this worked for somone, but it hasn't helped me. I appreciate any help, thanks.

I downloaded Weatherbug (free) from the market and am also using Beautiful Widgets (paid) for the clock/weather widget (suppose to be more efficient that the stock HTC flip clocks).
I then can set it up so tapping the weather on the screen launches weatherbug instead of HTC's weather, tapping time on the screen launches the desk clock app and tapping the date launches the calendar. As a bonus my phone finds me in Rochester NY and not Northwest Comanche OK

  • My weather location on my thunderbolt is different than my actual location. Why?

    why does my weather location change to a different location from where I am?

    How different is it?  If you set it to use your location, it will often pull the location of the tower it is connected to.  You might be able to get to use your phone's GPS, but that won't always work especially inside buildings.
    I usually set my Tbolt to use a nearby city as its default location for time and weather.  It is close enough to keep it accurate.

  • HTC won't show correct weather location.

    Can someone tell me why my Accu-Weathe On my HTC screen no longer shows my local area?  It keeps showing a city I don't even know where it is?  I tried going into settings, etc but have had no luck?  It worked fine until about 3 days ago?  Thanks for some input.   heidimae

    Is your data connection and GPS on?  Do you have the location set to a static location or are you using "My Location"?
    Also which HTC phone do you have?

  • Change weather location on dashboard

    I have a new Mac Pro and want to change the weather info to my local town.  How do I change this?

    Hover the cursor over the lower right corner of the weather Widget, and a lowercase i will appear. Click that and the card will "flip over", allowing you to enter parameters (including location) "on the back". Click the Done button when completed.

  • Slide it! Lock Slider for Blackberry - Weather/Location Issue

    I purchased the above and all works well except for the fact that no matter what location I put in, the weather says undetected. I live in England but have tried locations all around the world. I have emailed the contact provided in app world, but have heard nothing. Anyone experience this, or know how to correct?

    Morning...I downloaded two other weather apps and both had no problem pickling up my location; problem is, they only work by touch as a widget and aren't automatic like the installed lock screen app originally installed.
    If and when I get time I am going to stop by a Verizon store and see if they have any ideas and will add them here.  From what I am seeing in other areas, the Lollipop update seems to be causing a host of other issues that I am also seeing intermittently.  This reminds me when the Android OS updated the last time; fortunately I was within my timeframe as I had to get a new phoine since the other one was so badly mangled by the update.  Here we go again......

  • HTC weather location fix for HTC Rezound ?

    New phone, HTC Rezound, can't get my location under the weather to show where I am.  It continually says "current location." I have read several posts on similiar issues, done all that was recommended from syncing everything to checking GPS, which are all working perfectly.  I down loaded Weather Bug and it picks up my correct location with no issue.  Any suggestions on how to get my location to say where I am?

        Crvt,
    Thanks for the info! It sounds like you have done some fantastic troubleshooting so far, thanks for your time and patience. Its important to have a properly working phone, so lets get this resolved. Try resetting the application called "Weather". Go to settings>applications>manage applications>all>click on weather>clear cache & force close. Go back to the main screen, and see if the device can now determine where you are  located. Keep me posted.
    Thanks,

  • Lock Screen Weather Location

    I am guessing this was an issue that came up as a result of the Lollipop install but in truth I didn't pay much attention to it as it was something that was just "there."
    On the lock screen, the time and date are being properly displayed but the weather indicator is going to a different location; specifically to the location where my family lives in South Carolina; I am in Maryland.  I went into the Lock Screen Weather setting and changed the setting to "current location," then went around and removed the South Carolna reference anywhere I could locate but the weather on the lock screen is STILL coming up for South Carolina.
    Anyone know how I can get this thing to reset itself for my current location os somehow force a location?
    Thanks

  • 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.

  • Changing location for Weather

    I have the lg vortex and the weather location is showing PA.  How do I change it so wherever I am located will display?

    While viewing the weather or news headlines, press the Menu Key and touch Refresh to get the latest information.
    Changing News and Weather Settings
    You can configure a number of settings for News and Weather.
    The location and related settings also affect the display of the News and Weather widget and the Clock application.
    To open the News and Weather settings screen, press the Menu Key and touch Settings.

  • Setting builtin Weather app location for all domian users

    I am trying to force a home location for the built-in weather app using Group Policy. 
    I have tried to trace these settings using Process Explorer but I cant see where they are written. 
    How would I go about forcing this for all users?

    I've also discovered this same path.
    Although I wish I would have found this thread sooner it would have saved me A LOT of time figuring out the directory where the settings are stored.
    I've looked into the PersonalDataCache folder and found 3 files typically. The important one being 
    PersonalData_weather.file which seems to be something akin to an XML file. It contains entries for example below:
    {"GeoCoordinates":{"Latitude":33.4633598327637,"Longitude":-111.984771728516,"Altitude":0,"Version":0},"City":"Phoenix","State":"AZ","CountryRegion":"United
    States","LocationType":1,"LocationTypeId":"Phoenix, AZ, United States","ISOCode":"US","Version":0}
    {"GeoCoordinates":{"Latitude":32.778148651123,"Longitude":-96.7954025268555,"Altitude":0,"Version":0},"City":"Dallas","State":"TX","CountryRegion":"United
    States","LocationType":1,"LocationTypeId":"Dallas, TX, United States","ISOCode":"US","Version":0}
    After modifying the file and attempting to copy it back into a users profile however it never works. I'd be curious how you were able to actually get NEW users logging in for the first time to properly have the weather location that you want.
    I'd also be curious if 2 months into this setting change if it is still working for you?
    Also, I'd be curious to know if you are using a GPO to turn on the location services. Or if you have managed to figure out a way to get the weather app to stop asking users if it can use their location the first time they open the app.

  • My weather widget keeps saying "weather offline" when im on wifi or have full service?

    on my iphone 4 in the notification centre, my weather widget says "weather offline" sometimes, most of the time is shows the weather, but sometimes it is offline even when im on wifi or have full service. its so annoying. how can i fix this?

    I'm seeing it too, and I know of no fix. So it's not just you. And, I'm in the US so it's not a problem in your country only.
    I have found no pattern as to why I get "Weather Offline" but other times it's updated just fine.
    Sometimes the Weather app refuses to update the local weather, other times it gets updated. I assume the issues are related. All the other weather locations I create in the app are updated, so I know it's not the weather server that's the problem. It's just the local weather in the app and notification center (or centre!)
    Guess it's another iOS 5 bug. Let's hope it gets fixed in the next release.

  • My location settings - Note 3

    On my one app, weather bug, I have it set to display my current location for the weather, so it changes as I travel to / from work.  However, when I get to work in Twinsburg Ohio, it is showing "Walloon Lake MI" as my location which is probably a good 600 miles north of where I am.  I tried to change my phone setting to determine location by phone GPS instead of network based, in case for whatever reason network based meant this Walloon Lake MI location (like a corporate thing or something?)  I've added Twinsburg OH as a weather location but I have to click to change to that, and it will eventually revert back to Walloon Lake when the phone screen times out.

    Try Settings>Privacy>Location Services and switch it on.  You will see a list of apps that you turn on/off for location services.
