Go to settings>Location Access and enable everything. If that doesnt work try changing it around until it works.

It is a known issue with yahoo weather service. I have the same problem with chronus clock app on JB 4.2.2. Probably the weather app you are using also relies on the yahoo server.

Same issue here
I'm using cLock (formerly chronus) on three devices. Since 3 or 4 days no more weather forecast. Think there's a yahoo! server issue!
It used to work like a charm...

Yahoo shut down their weather API. You need to update the cLock to updated version. VJ posted an update in his thread. Check it out.

sense 4.0 clock

Sense 4.0 clock widget, no weather display. No matter what I do nothing show up.
I updated location under settings...keep saying location not found.
Any help will be grateful. Thanks
While I can't help with the sense clock I'd suggest HD Widgets. It was the closest I found to that style and it works well. It's super customizable too.
i had the same exact problem. the problem is that all the sense clock widgets use the google weather api which is now down. so use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1721809&highlight=sense+clock its the sense clock widget with the accuweather daemon. im using right now im on my s3 and its working like a charm. download the one specifically for the s3.

This clock wants to replace my fancy widgets installed from the market. Anyone with fancy widgets installed allow this app to overwrite their market version? Not sure I want to install it cause I don't know how it will affect licensing. It does look really good tho

i really dont know. u could make a nandroid backup and then experiment. theres probably a way to modify the sense clock widget apk to not overwrite what u already have but thats beyond my knowledge. actually i think the developer of this app just made the apk with the sense skin on for one of the clocks. read the thread and look around for a place you could download and put a skin to.

Yeah I had to installed fancy widget from the market to get that baby work.
I don't have any licence problem with it. But always make a back up first.
I will have to try HD Widgets.

I really really like them. You can make them look however you want and the weather can update from different sources. The only thing I miss is how the stock ICS one allows multiple locations on the widget with a swipe. I haven't played with HD Widgets too much but I couldn't find a way to do that.

Seen this on android central feed, I like it a lot but my only gripe is the fact that the stock LS collapses it. I would love if it can stay "open" all the time instead of having to swipe down to see missed calls or texts. And the damn settings button always shows as well.

Works very well, i like it.
May be more options will be included in the next upgrades.
i'm using it as well, you should try battery ext from play store.

Good question.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
It uses Yahoo Weather, as stated, and apart from adding the extension it should just pick up your location. I didn't have to manually add it. Whether it is done by GPS or Mobile Network location, it just seemed to take for me.

This used to happen to me . Then i disabled the option to use home screen widgets in lock screen from my custom rom menu.
But now there is a new version from this app, that allows your homescreen widget to have full transparent background.
Yes i just updated recently, now how can i resize the overall icons and texts? They're so big... and i have to slide down to see the rest of the notifications.

I wish there was support for Whatsapp too.

I hate having to manually expand the widget when it's set to default.

There is one. Search for dashclock extensions on the play store.
I love the widget. Its fantastic. The only issue I've had is refresh time. I don't know if its there app or what, but I had a missed call yesterday morning. Even though I cleared the notification and even called them back it never went away from the widget. Hope he fixes it soon

Did you have a solution for this issue ? My LockScreen also take 2/3 from the Screen, so i cant see the full DashClock
Unless you have some sort of Lockscreen control built into the ROM, and enabled maximize lockscreen widgets or however it's worded, then there doesn't seem to be a way to force it to max size. Unless someone has found another method, which I am eagerly looking for.
I'm loving this, but the weather doesnt seem to show for me. Even tried defining a location in the default clock to see if it was connnected.
looks nice...

[Q] Blink feed Htc Alternative App

Hey devs and android users! I'm new at this so I apologize if I've posted a New thread for nothing or it's in the wrong category
I have a htc one v and a galaxy tab 2 7" (GT-P113) and would like to know if there is any android app that can mimic the way sense 5 homescreen and lockscreen works on the new htc one, and just to be more specific I mean like the way you can see newsfeeds without widgets.
Does anyone know if there is such a thing?
Not at the moment
try Flipboard

The closest you'll get is flipboard or currents on JB, using daydreams, while you're charging. The rest of the android world hasn't caught up. Technically, YOU'RE probably the leading knowledge right now on this subject.
Do you mean to say I have the leading knowledge on the subject?

You can try the feedly widget. I use it on my device to quickly run through headlines from my home screen. It can be resized and still looks good. If you're looking for social feeds, look online to see how to generate a RSS of your fb/twitter feed and add them to feedly.
I have used pulse and flipboard, both do pretty good job.

So... I started making such an app, after i heard my phone won't get the update to Sense 5. (HTC ONE S)
The app itself is going to be a launcher, similair to Sense 5 with Blinkfeed. But i'm not going to add news feeds and rss, Only social networks will be included.
More details coming up

so.ho launcher already does this
Sent from my One V using xda app-developers app
So.ho launcher hasn't been updated since December of 2013 so it is outdated. Also the benefit of having a launcher do what he is wanting as opposed to a widget is that it will look better. Exactly like what blinkfeed does. It is possible as HTC made sense 6 a launcher, so it is possible. And people don't ONLY want RSS feeds. I personally loved chameleon launcher but that was abandoned/sold.

I accidently froze/disabled HTC blinkfeed and now my phone will not load a Launcher. Can I flash the htc blinkfeed apk in recovery to fix this? I have a HTC Desire 816 running kitkat 4.4.2 and sense 6.0 (Stock)

Go Launcher Weather Widget

I have the Go Launcher Weather Widget running on Nova but it seems I always have to update the app manually. I have checked my settings and it updates the location just not the temperature.. is it because Im not using the correct launcher? I like Go Launcher because it is really simple and clean.
Any suggestions?

There is another widget from the Butterfly Leaked ROM to be added to the list.
It is the HTC Navigate widget, which is used in conjunction with the Laputa navigation pack (if your ROM has it included).

I do not think it is related to stock ROM. My ONE is running Mike's Energy-ROM, and I am also facing problems with the Mail-Widget: although I have all my eMail-accounts properly set up, the widget does not list any of them when placing it on the homescreen. Instead, it insists on creating a new amail ccount. Unfortunately, this is not possible, because whenever I try to do this, the system tells me that this account already exists . Real pitty, because I was always in love with the Sense 4 mail & SMS widgets :crying:
I tried notes and mail,
When I put widgets it doesnt see my mail accounts or notes.
It asks for a new mail account.
