Weather widget won't show up #30

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
First of all, thanks for this amazing app!

On my LG Nexus 4 with Android 4.2.1, the weather widget won't show up. GPS is 
activated.

I have the same issue. I can set the temperature units of the weather but the 
extension never shows up on my lockscreen.

Likely something related to network location. Do you all have location services 
turned on? Per the FAQ [1], DashClock uses network location, not GPS, so that 
must be enabled.

The weather widget won't show up for me either, not even after a day. Location 
services are on and Yahoo Weather knows my location. LG Nexus 4 with 4.2.2.

it showed up eventually at my work location (5 miles from my house) and now 
seems to stay even at home. Maybe the location info from location services 
doesn't map 100% to Yahoo's WOEID?

@trillsbeek: as of 1.2, the weather extension tries to find a WOEID in 
decreasing precision order (locality, suburb, town, city, state, etc.)... if 
it's not finding anything at all, perhaps the app can't find your coarse 
location... in v1.3 you'll see a more obvious "Location could not be 
determined" error that'll give you more of a clue as to what's going on. 
improvements can definitely be made in the future to the weather extension.

I don't know what the issue was, it is there now all the time with varying 
location precision (locality, suburb, city). The error message will indeed be 
helpful. Anyway, thanks a lot for providing this widget, it's by far the most 
useful lockscreen widget!

I am not sure if this is Rom related, location related or something else.  I 
have this installed on both my Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 7 and I do not get 
weather data.  Both are set to have Location Access via GPS and Wifi Mobile. On 
both devices I have the no weather data available shown with the latest version 
on my lock screen. Weather hasn't worked on any version of CM10.1 I have run or 
any version of dashclock. 

I am currently in the US, Eastern Pennsylvania running Cyanogenmod 10.1 
nightlies from this week(4.2.2).

Seconding the weather data not being available on CM10.1 builds. I am in 
Seattle running 10.1 nightlies from this week (4.2.2).

Resolved the CM10.1 issue. It's AdBlock.

AdBlock? interesting... anyone else seeing this issue have that installed?

Same issue here on Nexus 4 rom stock.
Weather doesn't show anything.
Is there any way to use it without the GPS???

Just to follow up, in v.1.3 I never get a location when I'm at home. Other apps 
have no issue getting my approximate location (only relying on cell network, 
i.e. GPS and WiFi turned off), so I'm still wondering whether there is a 
mapping issue. Is there any way to find out what is given out by location 
services?

The option to put in a location manually will be a workaround but I'd rather 
have it set automatically depending on where I am.

I'm experiencing the issue with adblock enabled as well.  I've tried with easy 
list and fan boy's list.  It looks like the url in 
WeatherExtension.java:buildPlaceSearchUrl(Location l) is the one that is being 
blocked.

The latest adblock plus for android release (v1.1) fixed the issue for me.  If 
you were running abp, you'll have to install the apk manually because it's been 
removed from the play store.  Here is the brief changelog:
