After a recent trip away I have come back and the HTC clock widget does not update to the current location... it is stuck on 'United Kingdom' instead of my current location...
As a test I went for a drive today and whist 'Latitude' showed where I was, the google home page still showed the wrong location, and HTC widget still showed just 'United Kingdom'...
This has just got me stumped..

I use twitter to follow various people in the F1 fraternity, the friendstream widget is pretty handy, so I use that on a homepage. A few times now I've noticed that it fails to update from twitter - it simply doesn't get any new stuff. If I go in to peep that also doesn't update. if I start the twitter app they are all there.
Anyone else noticed this / found a solution ?
Last time it was out of a couple of days and then just started working again.
Just upgraded from a Samsung Galaxy Portal/Spica to a DHD and really happy with the move. Its a beast of a phone!
One question though, the "standard" HTC clock widget, that includes the weather on it won't auto update. If I click it, then menu, then settings the only selectable options are "Update when opened" and "Temperature scale".
The options for "Update automatically" and "Update schedule" are greyed out. I've tried adjusting the sync settings in the main settings section but nothing makes a difference.
How can I get this to work? Frequently I will look at my phone and it will tell me my location but not the weather. And whilst it isn't vital, I jkust think the screen looks nicer with a sun or cloud or moon or whatever on it.
I was wondering if anybody had the same issue with GPS as I did. When I launched Locations first time, it found the satelite very fast. Now it almost cannot find a satelite to update my location. I wrote almost, because once it did manage, but that was once in at least twenty tries. Do you have any idea how to check if the radio is ok. I read somewhere that one should try with master reset of the phone. If so, would it be enough to backup my data with Titanium backup and option "Backup all users apps + system data" and restore it later on? Will that make a full restore of my phone or do I have to backup some additoial data? Like, what will happend to my personalize data, apps passwords etc.

It opens, I can browse and select apps but when attempting to download it states 'starting Download', with a barber-pole bar, but the download goes no further. I have re-installed the update which seemed to work at first with one download working but then the same problem re-occurred.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm developing a mapping app using Eclipse 3.5.I'm setting the minimum update period with the LocationManager's requestLocationUpdates method, via a configuration activity. When I set the property I see in Logcat that the system process sets the value OK.When I actually send a new location from the DDMS emulator control and the location changes on the map view, I see that the system process then sets the minimum time to zero.Below is a capture of the system's log messages. You can see that I'm setting the period to 32 seconds, then 16, then, after I've sent a simulated location change the system sets it to zero.The map responds to location changes to location changes instantly even if they are sent only a couple of seconds apart.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been checking out these forums for a while, trolling the good advice. Today though I definitely need some of my own. My Evo is unprovoked and is running:
Build:147.651.0 CL195459 release-keys
PRI 1.34_003
PRL 60668.
The problem is that I've downloaded the OTA and used "install now". The phone tries to update but I get this error.
Build: Ra-evo-v1.7.0.1
Findining update package..
opening update package..
verifying update package..
E:no signature (624) files
E:verification failed. Installation aborted.
OK let me clarify, it does work, but only if I am actively using the phone. If I set my alarm then hit the power button to turn the screen off, or even just allow the screen to timeout and turn off, then the alarm fails to go off. This is REALLY annoying as it renders the entire alarm feature completely useless.

HTC Weather Widget broken?
Mine worked for a day and now I get the location but no weather update.
All other locations display all info fine.
Im in Australia on Vodafone - although from the previous mentioned thread seems to be software related rather than carrier location
Generally my location is detected normally but on occasion i get a number instead of the town i am in on the home screen clock widget. Same goes with the weather widget. I know its not a problem with the town information because sometimes it works and generally does so after being at the location for awhile. However today, for example, my location at work simply displays as "5". It has not updated itself after about 8 hours and counting. Friday it was fine.

But when I upload the apk and new images and click save or publish everything is lost when I return to the listing (the old apk and images are restored). The only thing that changes is the saved versioncode of the app. Is there something broken?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHow could I fix the location which appears on the clock on the home screen and serves as weather forecast location? I am not living near a big city listed on the weather location list and when at home, the current location usually is indicated some dozen miles away from my home. This could be a cosmetic problem, but in the Alps (where I am living) weather a short distance away can be quite different from where you are.
Besides that, it would be nice to know the weather at home while beeing abroad.
Does anyone know of an app to change vital phone settings based on your location? So, if i'm at home, my WiFi will turn on, same for my friends. Or i get to work and it turns to silent?
View 13 Replies View RelatedI've had my Hero on Orange for 4 or 5 days now and apart from when I first switched on the phone the weather app has just said "No weather data available" and the clock/weather widget has just had my location. I have the "location by cell" thing switched on, and I did manage to get it working once with the GPS, but other than that it just displays my location. It's the same whatever location I am in. The other cities download the weather just fine (London, Paris, New York, etc.). It's not like I'm somewhere tiny either, I am in Bromley. It doesn't make any difference whether I'm using WiFi or 3G.
View 49 Replies View RelatedI updated to v2 of the 2.1 leak several days ago. Since the update, I have noticed that the weather/clock widget that changes depending on your location, no longer works. All it says is "My Location" where the weather should be. I tried removing the widget from the home screen and replacing it, yet that didn't work. When replacing it, I was given the choice of weather for "Add a city", new york, and my location and I chose my location yet the weather never updated. In the weather app, there is also no screen for the leather in my current location, just New york, which can be deleted.

So every so often I go into Settings and then go to Software Update, click "Check for Update", click OK and for the past couple weeks it has ALWAYS told me that it failed to connect to AT&T's servers. If I try and check again it tells me that 24 hours has not elapsed since I made my last request. (Even though that request failed).
I've tried it in Airplane mode with Wi-Fi enabled and I've tried it in normal mode but using Wi-Fi and in 3G mode (not connected to any Wi-Fi network).
The day I got my phone I was able to retrieve an update (so it used to work) and I have not rooted my phone or "mucked with it" in any fashion.
My X10i fails to install the update, it downloads and starts updating then about 2 seconds later says failed, it does this with PC Companion and SE updater, it does this on win 7 64bit and win xp whats going wrong?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHave had no issues at all with the phone since i have owned it, but this morning it has decided it no longer wants to synchronize with my windows 7 ultimate installation. has been syncing fine daily for 2 weeks, i select the sync option on the handset, it sits for 1min "finding htc sync on your pc". then get error "unable to find htc sync on your pc. please make sure sync is installed and opend on your computer" etc, htc sync is running and open, and the device is not mounted by default. its not a usb connection error, as i can mount the disk drive and copy files etc. so suspect drivers are ok. i first made sure i was running latest version of the htc sync software, by downloading the latest and installing again. (i haven't removed and clean installed yet) 2.0.33. i also rebooted the device by removing the battery. i do also sync with an xp machine, so i will give this a try later, i suspect it will work, my money is on it being a PC issue rather than handset. although cannot think what has changed over the weekend to effect this.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am in the process of trying to de-brand/flash my desire, but keep constantly coming up against the same problem, HTC sync. I open it on my PC then plug in my phone, set it to HTC sync and it tries to find htc sync on my PC, it always fails to do so, i have installed the latest HTC sync from HTC.com, tried changing USB ports but it always says that its unable to find htc sync on my PC..... I think this is the reason i am unable to make a gold card. So has anyone got any suggestions for me? I need this phone de-branding I cant believe what Orange UK have done to my phone!! The Internet icon is changed from the stock icon to their own orange world icon I want to be in a position to root my desire if HTC refuse to update to 2.2 without a gold card i cant do that.

View 5 Replies View Relatedthe internet often fails to fully load the page I request, even when the display at the top is indicating 3g/3g+. The web address bar will half load and then stop and the only way to get the internet working again appears to be by turning the phone off and on. It does this 3 or 4 times a day. Also, whilst on the topic of internet problems, Google will often look to have loaded, but the location bit under the search box will never appear, nor will my default email address at the bottom of the Google homepage. When this happens whilst I can type in the search box, clicking the search button does nothing and can only be remedied, again, by turning off and on. This also happens a couple of times per day at least.
Secondly, since weekend, my phone has been 'crashing' (for want of a better word) mid-way through text messaging (very annoying if it's a long message as it doesn't save any progress). The screen will go black, signal will drop to nothing with a cross through it and then I'll be returned to the screen I was in previously. The same happens during calls - the phone will hang up, call will end, and the screen will go black with a line through the middle of it. I've had the phone since May and, as it's Orange branded, is still on 2.1. To be honest, overall I'm becoming fed up with it - seems to have more problems than it does positives at the moment, but I'm stuck with it for a while yet it would seem.
This is my first post but have been reading the forum since I got my desire 3 weeks ago.... love it so far, but I have just come across a problem, When I go into settings followed by "manage applications" I get an error that a process has failed, and then I can only quit using the force close button. I have tried restarting the phone and no new apps have been put on recently. Does anyone know what I can do to be able use the app manager again?
View 12 Replies View RelatedI have an un-branded Desire with the latest HTC OTA firmware update and it's running on T-Mobile here in the UK. I have Web n'Walk so I get the full-speed HSDPA data service when it's in range.
I also use Google Maps Navigation a lot. The problem I notice is that sometimes after setting a new route the mobile data connection to download the route data fails to fire up. I can see the mobile signal strength bars, but no 3G or HSDPA signal indicators. And of course without the data connection the new route details don't get downloaded. I usually have to power off the phone and then re-power to get around this.
It doesn't happen consistently - sometimes no problems at all. And the problem seems unrelated to signal strength.
Does anyone else experience this and has anyone found a solution?

I'm trying to install Android SDK on Ubuntu but fail when I try to use the SDK Manager and AVD Manager to install Android platforms.
I've downloaded: android-sdk_r04-linux_86.tgz
Then I start the SDK Manager and AVD Manager (UI) according to the README file:
./tools/android
And I get the following
Installed Packages:
- Install SDK Tools, revision 4
Available Packages:
- https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repoisotry/repository.xml
- This repository requires a more recent version of the Tools. Please update-
- Android SDK Tools, revision 4
- Archive for Linux
Now doing an update of the Android SDK Tools, revision 4 or everything results in
99% progress and then the application hangs.
Here's the console feedback:
johanc@johan-desktop:~/android/android-sdk-linux_86$ tools/android
