Android :: Stopping Weather Channel Alerts
Jan 19, 2010
Is there any way to stop the Weather Chanel from broadcasting alerts. In San Francisco, wind and rain, constitute alerts. So this week there's a new alert every hour or two. I know it's raining and I know it's windy. It seems to be draining the battery.I've looked in the menu but I can't figure out how to stop the alerts from waking up my phone all the time. Any suggestions other than uninstalling?

I like the Weather Channel App, but the alerts are driving me crazy.Maybe I just live in a volatile area, but sheesh it seems like the app is constantly alerting me to heavy rain, then high winds, then this, then that. I don't need any of that!(I have a window.)Is there any way to turn these alerts OFF?

I used to have the free version of Weather Bug downloaded but recently decided to give the Weather Channel app a try since it has animated radar. Maybe it's just my imagination but ever since I started using the Weather Channel app it seems like my battery doesn't last as long. Does anyone know if it uses more battery juice than Weather Bug? I was going to download Weather Bug again to compare the two but I can't seem to find the free version any more.

The HTC Weather App give me a current temp of 84. Weather Channel App says 90. Where the heck is the HTC App getting it's data? Any way to link to HTC weather (and time) app to weather channel? That's a big difference.

I LOVE the beautiful weather widget and the corresponding live wallpaper. My only question is if anyone knows if it does wetaher alerts like the weather channel widget does. I love TWC widget as it has awesome wetaher alert capability along with an easily accessible radar map that's fullly interactive - anything similar on beautiful weather?

How in the world does one get rid of the temperature display/notification in the above bar once The Weather Channel app is opened? There doesn't seem to be any app-specific settings here.

Just found out that if you swipe side to side on the Weather Channel's weather app it'll move between your locations.

Over the past couple days, it seems like my Weather Channel app hasn't been working properly. When I move to the home screen that has the widget, it will be displaying the wrong temperature and picture (i.e. it might be showing "partly sunny" when it's night time). It just shows the temperature for the last time I opened the app.So, I click on the widget to open the app, and it brings me to one of the screens and it just says "N/A", while a green circle rotates in the upper-right corner. After a few seconds, it finally updates and shows me the current temperature/forecast (whichever screen I was in last).I've never had these problems before, up until the past few days. Usually I would just move over to my other home screen, look at the temp, and move back. It would always be [somewhat] updated by itself (usually every 30-60 minutes it seemed). Now it doesn't update until I actually open the app.Any ideas or suggestions? Or is anyone else having this problem? I am using the Droid Eris. I restarted the phone yesterday, still doing the same thing.

It's possible to always display the temp in the Android ribbon/window pane with the Weather Channel app. Long press on the City of your choice and then choose "Set as home." This will add the current temp at the top of your display. If you slide the ribbon open you will see a graphic with current conditions. Note: the display vanishes with Clear Notifications but returns the next time the app is run.

Is anybody able to see their local radar within The Weather Channel app? The rest of the app/widget seems to work fine, but when I go to the radar map it never seems to load the radar, and nothing ever shows up. It does load the map but there is never any rain or anything. Yes, there is rain in the area when I am doing this (other radar apps work fine), and I've checked the settings to verify that I have it set to Radar. There is a spinner in the upper right corner beneath the clock that never stops spinning, so maybe it's just not loading?I know there are other radar apps and that Weatherbug is highly recommended, but I really like the Weather Channel radar and would really like to at least have the option to look at that one in addition to others. My husband's Incredible is having the same problem, as was the demo phone at Verizon store when we first went to look at it. I've been Googling for a couple hours now and can't seem to find anything so figured I'd check here.

Anyone else have an issue with the weather channel app? Occasionally I'll notice that the temp is way off on my home city. When I tap the widget to view my home city in the app there is no weather data - just a big N/A at the top of the screen. It will not update again until I reboot the phone. My other cities are always still updating. Only my home city is fried.This happens about once a day- anything I can clear out in the phone that might help? Uninstall and reinstall the weather channel app?

Yesterday I downloaded the latest Smoked Glass 6.0.Before installing, I nandroided and backed up my apps.No issues with install except one.The Weather Channel application fails to load. Not only that, but if I search for it in the marketplace, it doesn't come up. Even when I go to androlib and scan the QR code, it the marketplace tells me that it can't find the app.

I'm living in Austin, TX. New to Droid ownership. Just bought an ERIS. My favorite standard feature was the large, Weather Channel animations. However, the rest of the phone was faulty and I had to have it replaced with a "refurbished" phone. Now the large weather animations have disappeared. Puny, smaller animations remain.Does this have something to do with Google's preferences. Can I get the more robust animations back?

The media player shuts off after i unlock the screen. What is causing this? It will play, then lock itself after a minute or so, keep playing, and when I unlock it, it shuts off. Also annoying is that it shuffles forward AND reverse.When I put the weather channel widget on my home screen It never updates itself even though I Juice defender that should allow it to refresh periodically.I'll add one more - the last few apps I downlaoded, i had to cancel 3-4 times, then retry before they are started to download.

how to stop Google Now from displaying weather? I use another weather app and don't need the weather repeated on my Google Now widget, but more importantly I want to down-size the widget (which I can, I use Apex), but I need to get rid of weather in order that the smaller-size widget shows my other cards.

I live in southern Illinois in an area that gets tornados, floods, straight line winds, and some pretty wicked storms. The last couple times we had tornado warnings my phone did the NOAA weather alert noise. I really like that, since it gives us a heads up about the weather.
But I got one this morning (flash floods until 1pm) and I noticed that my tablet did not go off. After doing some digging I found out that the alerts only go to cell connected devices. Since my Nexus 7 is only wifi I was wondering if you all had any apps that could alert us on my tablet. The things I'm looking for in such an app is that it emits the extreme weather noise when the alert goes out (a red icon in the status bar), and the ability to tell the app to not alert me for things like high winds.

Sometime yesterday Discovery Channel announced the availability of their application for Android. Has anyone been able to find it? Following the link provided in their official twitter feed led me to a 404, and Marketplace searches yield nothing for me. I'm on Droid Eris.
Discovery Channel Launches Android App - AppScout
Even the QR code I found here yields nothing:

I've just migrated to 1.5 and a strange bug has occured. I have the following code...
That means I want my image button to have no background, just image. It worked well in sdk 1.1, but now it shows a black rectangle as background. Why can it be and is there another way to remove the background?

I've created a bitmap that I'm overlaying over another bitmap. I'd like to alter the transparency of sections of the overlaid bitmap, revealing the bitmap beneath. I can't find a way to write only to the alpha channel of the overlaid bitmap.
For example, I have a bitmap filled with red pixels, and an alpha that is 255, opaque. A solid red bitmap. How do I draw a circle on this map that would lower the alpha values toward 0, transparent?

I tap weather icon, get current location no city name and the weather info, I then tap "+" hit my location and it finds my city Corning NY, I add this to the weather app, I close out and hit weather app again and now I have to locations, the one that says current location and the one that says Corning NY, both weather datas are the same. My question is how to I delete or get rid of the current location weather data screen and have only the Corning NY screen when I open the weather app? The data for both is the same but I don't want 2 locations(one named) for the same data.

Imagine raindrops moving on your screen? Do you want your screen always visualize the weather outside while don't block your interaction with other application? Then come to try Weather Face. It is funny, beautiful and easy.
Weather Face decorates your phone screen with different weather animations, including rain, snow, lightning, cloud, and sunshine. For instance, clouds float on your screen when it is cloudy outside. I have a demo video on Youtube :
