Geolocation Problem. Does not exist? - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So today I applied a couple of updates and I "think" that Beautiful Widgets was the last prior to seeing "Geolocation Problem: Location does not exist"

Google Maps. Open it and then you should be okay.

What the deuce!!!! Never have had to do that before.
Thanks for letting me know najaboy, would have never figured out the reason. Would have fixed it without knowing as I use maps all the time, just wouldn't have known what fixed it.

OK, spoke to soon. It didn't pop up but this time I got an explanation somewhat... Still don't know how to fix it:

I just got this message for the 1st time (traveling on business). I just closed this message, and it picked up the right location immediately. I have it on airplane mode during the day since I can't get signal where I am during the day, so the phone + GPS might have been in a confused state.

I got the message once yesterday, and now since 3am EST It keeps giving me this error message. Even with GPS on AND opening Google Maps.
PS - Also, I read on Androidforums something about checking the alternate geocoder, but that option is greyed out for me.
PPS - I changed from Accuweather to Google Weather and it seems to be working now.

I have the same issue .. switching to GOOGLE for weather seems to fix the issue but I dont think it is providing the correct location as accuweather did
any fix?

Interesting, never seen that...I kinda want it to happen just to be like, ha, I don't exist right now.

I have the same problem with something fix for me
First of all I'm sorry for my English as I'm from Thailand
I got the exactly same problem and I tried many way to fix it out and what is work for me is
I go to application, Manage Application, and clear the Data for Beautiful Widget
Then I remove the home widget and Add the beautiful home widgets again and set the weather service for Accuweather then thing just come up and the problem just fixed
This is work for me.
Cheers

This is a year old thread bud, safe to say this isn't a common problem.

Mangled text on home screens?

Hello, I've got a weird error that I don't even know how to begin tracking down. Not sure if this is an ICS issue, an app issue, or a device (hardware) issue.
Several times now, I get a problem were, after a reboot, all the text on my home screen - names for apps and text within widgets is mangled somehow. Like pixels inverted, or boxed over, etc. (see screenshot)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The first couple of times this happened, a single reboot made it go away. However with my latest occurrence, I've rebooted several times without a fix.
EDIT: It seems like my data connection may also require examination? Since on the 3rd or 4th reboot I was in my office with a solid WiFi connection (versus previous reboots I was in my car en-route), the problem has now gone away again.
My initial reboot this morning was as a quick-fix attempt at an absent data connection. Guess I'm off to research these "radios" everyone keeps on about...
EDIT 2: Ok, perhaps ignore the above. After a reboot made this go away, it has now come back spontaneously (i.e. just noticed it sitting in the cradle with the error again - no reboot this time.) CRUUUUD.
Are you using a custom Kernel? Some 'Overclock' the GPU to 512MHz, while Stock is 384MHz. Some devices can't handle the increase and cause screen artifacts. Post your Kernel details and I'm sure someone will point you in the direction of another Kernel if this is the case.
Not that I know of - should be all stock, since I haven't rooted or unlocked anything yet (just got the phone a couple of weeks ago).
Thanks for the help.
Stock launcher? Or using nova/apex etc?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
Hi,
Another thread...:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646985
Nothing related to GPU overclock...just about this possibility...
Looking in different threads in Q&A/General.
If you are using the stock launcher...I think I saw a topic with this weird issue with the stock launcher...but I can not find it anymore
In any case clear data/cache of your current launcher,reboot and see...If you're on another launcher than stock,reinstall...
I speak only for the launcher issue.
Yep, stock launcher. Thanks for the other thread.
Seems to be at bay now. Will keep an eye on it.

Twitter Notifications Borked?

I have already posted about this in my Google+ profile, but Twitter notifications have not been working for quite a long time on my Galaxy Nexus, across a wide variety of AOSP based ROMs. Whenever I try to change my notification settings, I get the message "there was a problem updating notification settings".
Anyone else experience this or know how to fix it? I've already tried clearing out all my partitions and stuff, and as an FYI, I always do a full wipe before installing any ROM.

Notifications have been broke for me also mate. Frustrating as hell, in addition when I tweet and go @ it does not load my full list of contacts.
Edit: btw when this became an issue someone suggested removing and adding my acct again and this did work temporarily. Maybe you can give it a try, might help you.
FYI, the solution was given to me. Turns out you have to sign out of the account, revoke access to the app through Twitter.com and sign back in.

OMG it works. Thank you for this. I can't believe I failed to come across. As I said earlier wiping acct and signing in did work.

[Q] What is the proper syntax for setting a calendar event in Google Now?

I know its capable since the update before last but getting it to actually work is a pain.
It will set a calendar event but it doesnt seem to get any of my date and time information. What it will do is set a calendar even for the next half hour block and then put the time/date and subject in the description.
So "Create an event for Thursday at 6 PM for a Haircut" I will end up with an event in fifteen minutes titled "thursday at 6pm for a haircut."
This seems to be the only feature in Voice Actions/Google Now that I cant seem to get to work. Everything else understands what I want wonderfully.
I did some searches but all I get back are old threads about how it wasnt supported prior to the update and/or doing it through the text trick.
First say set event for Thursday, wait for day to open and
Then say the event or type it out.
This should come up

This works for me ->
"schedule a haircut for Thursday at 6pm"
Thank you! That actually worked.
Edit: Tried it a few times, works reliably.
No problem! Would appreciate it if you can press the "thanks" button for me.
Ah, was on "XDA Classic" theme and it doesn't show the thanks button. Updated and thanked.

[Q] Google Maps Traffic Graphics Messed Up?

I've encountered something on my VZW Galaxy Nexus that appears completely new to me. I did some online research but found no one with similar problems.
To give a little background, I encountered this problem after I hit the "traffic to home" Google Now tile which took me to Google Maps. After hitting this tile, though, the graphics for traffic on my Google Maps has become very low resolution. Normally, you see two lines on each freeway, one in each direction. Right now, those lines are all blurry and overlap to the point where I can't see both lanes. It looks like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If I zoom in enough, I can get it to look like it normally does, but zooming out slightly makes it go right back to fuzzy-garbage-traffic:
Anybody know what happened? I uninstalled and reinstalled Maps, but it didn't help.
I'm experiencing a similar issue on my Galaxy Note II on AT&T. I just noticed it yesterday. And it was after I flashed my phone to Cleanrom 4.7. If I zoom in closer, the lines become sharp and are no longer blurry. Not sure how to fix it.
Getting the same thing on my EVO on Sprint. It appears that people have started taking to posting comments in the Play store as well:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DEsImNvbS5nb29nbGUuYW5kcm9pZC5hcHBzLm1hcHMiXQ..
I went a step further and reported it using the "Feedback" option in the map.

I'm getting this too on my Galaxy Note on CM10.1. I think this happened after the last update. Hope they fix it soon. Very annoying?

Wiped and updated to the latest nightly of CM10.1 and the problem is gone.

Question Digital wellbeing apk ? & problem with nova launcher

Hi guys !
I have been facing the known problem for a few days now.
This is that when I press the center button it keeps asking me to select Launcher .
I searched for this problem and read reports that the app is causing it Digital wellbeing.
In my case, however, the suggested solutions (uninstall updates, freeze app, clear data) do not solve the problem.
Here I should note that the application is pre-installed from the Samsung store, uninstalling it is not possible.
Do you have any idea that can solve this problem?
That's a trash app, worthless. Either use Package Disabler or an adb edit to stop it if you can't disable this app in settings.
Edit:
Just tested it on my N10+/Pie variant. It can't be disabled in settings. How thoughtless of them.
Use one of my first two options to take out the trash plus it removes it from the settings menu.
Another Google save the dumb bunnies, feel good parasite service. Gookill sucks.
Do you have any apκ (Package Disabler) to recommend me?

Sent you the link. Not on Playstore.
Ιn the end the problem was created by the application fitpro .
I found it completely by accident while looking for the solution to the reports I was finding about Digital wellbeing.
As soon as I uninstalled it, the problem was solved and everything now works perfectly as before.

DP makes finding buggy apps easier by letting you disable them on the fly.
The interactive widget let's you toggle one or more apps on/off.
