the weather widget on hy home screen says "no weather data available"
I have wifi connection, and have GPS turned on for my location.
If I tap the weather widget and open the weather app it says " unable to display current weather, tap refresh for updates.... I tap refresh it gives the same message... I tap a second time.. and voila.. the weather appears.
when i open weather settings.. the scheduled sync option is greyed out
and update schedule every hour is also greyed out
if I go to Account & sync settings and open weather... the update schedule "every hour is not greyed out but in bold ??
how do I just get this to update my wether every hour?
I think this is a problem with the weather supplier, which is AccuWeather. I had this problem last week. I could get weather for certain areas (typically larger cities), but not my location. After 4-5 days it suddenly started working again.
Ive noticed it to be sporadic at times, then hour or so later it works again.
AccuWeather might be culprit as i've used PC apps that use their data which also sometimes drops out.
i cant see any option to change the weather supplier. It seems to happen consistently.. not just occasionally...

It's taking 40 min to download one app via wifi, if I switch to LTE it downloads fine. I don't want to use all my data downloading apps? Other wifi tests seem fine on the phone. Is there an issue with wifi on this phone?

Try this: Force your device to check in to Google servers to gain full access to the Play Store:
Go to Phone > Dialpad (10 dot icon) and dial *#*#CHECKIN#*#* (*#*#2432546#*#*). Do not start the call. The numbers you entered should disappear.
Within 2 minutes, you should receive a "checkin successful" notification.
If this doesn't work, you can also force a check in by manually changing the date and time:
Go to Settings > Date & time.
If you see any of the following menu items, turn them off:
Automatic date & time
Automatic time zone
Tap Set date and Set time and manually change the date and time so they're incorrect.
Tap Home (the circle at the bottom of your screen) and repeat steps 1-2.
Turn Automatic date & time and Automatic time zone back on.
I had the same problem, so i called google support and they came out with this solution . The first method worked for me.
Hello
Since the Nougat update there has been a few noticeable and annoying issues.
So this issue has been bothering me since I have updated to Nougat thru system update a few months ago.
Suddenly the weather widget is not updating to current location and always shows "No Location Available"
I have to manually update the location but than again it goes back to showing "No Location Available"
Another issue is that
I am not receiving Gmail notifications at all and also some other apps I have noticed that their notifications either stopped all together or are very very delayed.
Has these issues not addressed by Google?
I am on Android version 7.0 software 4.28.401.3 -- which I got today only thru system update
Regards
Do you have location services disabled?.. Could be worth checking your google settings.
The weather widget "should" update if you get a location lock with full GPS enabled. If you think you might not be getting a gps lock then run google maps while outdoors (stand on you doorstep or go out to the garden) and wait for it to locate you then refresh the weather app.

Anyone finding the reason for the new update?
I found something the update has changed, after updating the app "Google Earth" last night and then the update seemed to self install (I had been hitting "Install Later" "4 hours" for weeks).
First it is important to notice the Google Earth changes, the new app was in the top of the YouTube recommendations last night, and I wanted an upgrade to Google Earth for a while (in desktop it doesn't play well with touchscrren)=I updated it (on my phone) as soon as I could find it in the play store, like an hour after I watched the vid it showed up there as update.
So the second I updated it it changed the inner workings of Google on my phone and my location got turned on. I was suddenly assaulted with weather info (which I never am) via the lockscreen widget of weather. So I went to "location" in settings and turned it off. But it still said weather on lockscreen.
So then I shut off and restarted, and still there was weather info....this was strange. I never saw the location in settings get overridden from something before. I looked harder under the location, and clicked all the items in there till I found a list of google apps in one of the location dropdowns.
As it turns out, the "permissions" for location in google apps (like play services, google app, gmail, plus a few more) were set to allow location. So I went thru the listed (seven) google functions and apps and shut off their location permission. Some I had to do inside the app permissions (gmail) others I was able to change right inside the location settings.
So then, after I had just restarted a second time, finding NO weather on lockscreen to make sure my changes took hold, I was going to click my google app folder on my homescreen, to check the gmail app and instead the update started. I never saw the usual update request screen and never had a chance to hit "don't install"
So it took about 15-20 min to install the ~25 MB update. Then afters it all seems like normal. I saw and still see, no trace of the google location access problem. The "recent requests" 4 instances inside "location" in settings which was up to 4 during the terrifying moments of location availability by google, and weather info showing, was again like normal, down to 2. The permissions of the Google apps were back to no location access.
So I have a theory that it was to remove the google app changes inside the htc sense version which took place from the (new) Google Earth install. It is a RARE Google earth update, as it hadn't been updated in over a year (and it made no difference in the phone version's MAP, dont believe the lies about detail shown in the promo video).
This could be way off, it could just be that I reached some kind of limit to the "install later" on the update...but that doesn't make sense to me.
Anyone got a similar experience with the Earth app update and the HTC update?
Somethin wrong wit my phone since this update. It is running out of battery already at 80% and same yesterday. Just got up, just barely used it at all for anything.
I just got my new Galaxy Watch and it works great except for the weather. It keep saying "add location", it opens a location list on my phone and I added a few.
However my watch still believes there is no location, and I have no weather, neither on the widget not on the watch face... Is there any way to force the watch to synchronize the locations?
Try to remove any added locations and run only the current one. I don't know if this is the solution, but now it works for me, as i had the same problem (more or less)
Hey all,
I've recently gotten the Galaxy Watch Active 2, and already gotten around to changing the region to KOO. Now have the latest Tizen 5.
However, I'm having issues with a few things. Most importantly, the Weather app on the watch wants me to add a location, so I click "add", and it tells me to add it on my phone. And on my phone, it sends me to the Weather app settings within the Wearable app, and I get a toast notification saying "Couldn't add location. Connect to a network and try again.". Same happens when I tap on "locations" in the settings manually.
I don't have a Samsung phone, so I have no dedicated Samsung Weather app. Could that be the issue? Or what's the problem?
P.S. the same issue was there on Tizen 4, so it's not a Tizen 5 bug
Nevermind, I figured it out! I installed the Samsung Weather Forecast app from apkmirror and restarted my phone afterwards. Not sure which of those fixed it. Maybe both. But it thankfully works now!
Good to know, glad it's recovered. cheers
