accuweather widget vs lockscreen location updates
Same problem !
Stock Accuweather widget not updating current location, even if i force it to refresh !
whereas if u enable weather on the lockscreen ! it updates the position perfectly !! dunno what sense does it make not making the normal widget updating while lockscreen one does!!!!
anyone have a solution for this ? ive tried everything (removing,re-adding widget , removing cities in list..etc) but nothing worked.i dont recall this happens with most of the weather apps out there , my Desire HD does it perfectly with sense.
cheers

lol lock screen is working ???? this becomes really idiotic.

yup had the same problem so i switched to beautiful widgets and it works perfectly

yeah it is ridiculous !

do you have location enabled? wireless or GPS.
enable current location in the weather app only works if you have it enabled on the phone.

I find the problem, they create alot of places to feed with wheather, but it is all the same temperature, WHY THE **** ACCUWHEATHER?
Take a look in my situation, I live in Rio de janeiro and with all others apps of wheather locate me as Rio de Janeiro, JUST THE **** ACCUWHEATHER LOCATE ME AS NIGUAÇU and is a place, FAR, FAR WAY FROM ME. AT LEAST 2h by car, take a look at accuwheather map:
http://www.accuweather.com/en/br/niguacu/35550/weather-forecast/35550

guess you need to check the accuweather support site as to why.
Many different weatherapps, try some

[Q] Weather on lockscreen

Anyone know of a way to get the weather on the lockscreen, without getting an extra app. I'm currently using the Epic Unlock and would like to add weather to it.
Weather bug lets u display temperature in status bar, if that helps.

Yeah, Beautiful Widgets let's me do the same. I would just like to mod my current one to include the weather from Beautiful Widgets or Fancy Widgets. I think this would be a really cool mod.
I use beautiful widgets (which you say you have, so I'm not counting it as an "extra app") I set my background to the beautiful live weather wallpaper, so that should do what you want it to I think.
If you don't want the weather as you permanent wallpaper, most custom roms will let you choose a specific wallpaper for your lockscreen.
I really like having the weather as my background as it's one of the really quick and easy way I can disgrace all the iphone folks.

[Q] Accuweather widget and localisation ok ?

hello all
I do not know about you, but for me the Accuweather Widget does not synchronize the cities where I travel ... The weather made ​​correctly sync, but my town stay the original. I tested under different ROM LA6 (Rocket 22, kingdroid 4.02) and it always worries. I do not know if this error does not come from the transparency of this widget?
I await your feedback thank you
nobody use accuweather ?
Mine does the same, I'm on non rooted stock rom, i have the weather displayed on my lock screen also, this updates my location ok, but for some reason the widget does not

Problem with weather widget

Hello,
I have a problem with default installed Yahoo Weather widget.
Im living in Europe and the time was changed to winter time, one hour backward.
And since then the Yahoo Weather widget still shows me one hour + like in the summer time.
How can I change the time in Yahoo Weather widget?
Thanks.

My choice is the 3D Digital Weather Clock from Factory Widgets, giving you time, date, weather, week number, battery and moon phase at a glance.
Tapping hours and minutes opens app of choice (in my case Alarm Clock Plus and A HIIT Interval Trainer).
Tap weather for 5-day forecast, left corner for system status and right corner for app settings.

What he ^^^^^ said :good:
HD Widgets running on your choice of launcher (Nova is my favourite). I don't understand why anybody would want to stay on the stock ROM which is fixed to a 4x4 grid - looks butt-ugly on a screen the size of ours.
HD Widgets plus the HDW: Icon Pack for Tablets - only costs a couple of pounds and looks sweet.
Yeah got that problem too google doesnt seem to have the answer

Is there a way to refresh the weather on the watch? It updated once and hasn't changed in 12 hours.

Open the weather widget and change it in the settings on your phone. Then reboot both
Actually it is in the setting for weather in the Gear Manager app.

There isn't anyway as of now to refresh from the watch itself. It does autoupdate as soon as the app on the phone updates tho. I currently have the phone app set to update hourly on mine so that the weather info stays somewhat updated. I would imagine a future update will include someway to refresh directly from the watch itself.

That just allows you to setup how often the weather is refreshed, it doesn't actually do what the op asked which is refresh the weather from the watch. As a side note when you change the settings in Gear Manager that you mentioned it changes the settings in the weather widget on the phone and vice versa. I do believe that a future update will allow you to refresh the weather directly from the watch tho.

Undersood the question but frequent update (e.g. every hour) should mean there is no need to update from the watch. The weather does not change that fast!

The problem i'm having is that Weather isn't updating at all on my Gear,
If i go into apps and press weather i'm met with 'Add city to weather widget on mobile device'
On the main Gear clock/weather screen it states 'No weather info'
I've tried turning 'Use current location' on and off in Gear Manager, restarting both devices didn't help.
Also tried resetting the Gear to factory defaults.
I'm using a stock Note 3.
Everything else seems to work well,
Any ideas ?

is the weather app setup correctly on the Note 3? It gets all of it's info from the stock app on the Note, oddly enough the weather app is obviously different from previous versions as it doesn't work at all on an S4.

Appreciate the quick reply,
Everything was setup correctly but for some reason re-installing Gear Manager on my Note made it work.

Don't mean to hijack this thread but i don't know if it's worth creating a new one...
Is there any quicker way to check battery life ?
The only way I know is to go into the Settings app on the Gear and then Battery.

Is there a way to get the TouchWiz Accuweather widget to run in the Nova launcher? It seems that only the TouchWiz version updates the weather clock on the Galaxy Gear watch. It would be nice to have it work with Nova as well. I did install the Accuweather application from the Play Store, but its widget doesn't sync with the Gear watch, or so it appears.

You have to use a root browser to copy it to system/app.
With the new tizen update you can refresh weather manually from the watch now

Weather widget for Galaxy Gear
Hello to all
I noticed that all the widgets I tried to use that was not native to SAMSUNG is not synchronizing with the Galaxy GEAR.
Thus, I can not use the coolest launchers because of this.
Some of you can use other launchers and weather widgets that sync with the Galaxy Gear?
Thanks.

Best bet would be getting the stock samsung weather working.. You wont require a internet connection on your gear by doing it this way..
Accuweather....apk & WeatherDaemon.apk are needed on your phone for Samsung weather to work. Refer HERE for more info.
You can then use samsungs stock weather widget for custom text widgets, this is more a advanced user method tho.

The thing that annoys me about Samsung's stock accuweather which the gear seems dependent on unless you tether it to the internet is that it requires you to be outside with GPS on for any updates to show as far as weather, temperature, ect... At least that's what I determined on my setup and I looked everywhere in the widget's settings ect... on the phone for a way to change that and can't.
Need Help locating app
Can anyone tell me what this app/widget/lockscreen is? This is a screenshot from a youtube video, but its exactly what i'm looking for. bit.ly/2FQsXbf
