[HELP!] Conditions and temp showing as "Unknown" and "??" - Zooper Widget General

I have been using Zooper pro forever now and I made the widget shown in this photo a few months ago and it worked fine, all of the data was shown including the current condition and temp, but for some reason or another it just shows "unknown" for the condition and "??" for the temp.
I have done everything I can think of to fix this issue, including changing the weather provider, checking my location settings and making sure they were set to GPS, wifi and cellular data and I've even gone so far as uninstalling and reinstalling Zooper to try to fix this.
Anyone know what would cause this and how to fix it?

Up...i've got same problem

got the same problem, but fixed for me.
I thought its broken, because i really often change and test different Roms.
i changed weather provider in Zooper Settings from yahoo to Yr.no including update weather information and that works on me.
Tried to change back, but yahoo and openweather dont work on me... So now i use Yr.no and it works

Having problems here too for adding a new location. Each time I use the search, it just shows up 'not found' , even the larger cities. Can't seem to get it to work anymore on all of the services, yahoo, open weather nor yr.no. The location I had set up though, seems to work fine.
Does anyone know if this is going to be updated? From my understanding yahoo is not available anymore, but i had been using open weather, which worked just fine for me.
btw - I'm getting a timeout error on openweathermap.org, maybe that has something to do with it?

The only provider that even kind of works for me is yr.no, but when I selected that provider it showed the current condition as "Tornado", so I don't think it's accurate at all.

I found this on the zooper website. It just says to try other weather providers and if that doesn't work to wait for upcoming updates. How long should we wait? The app hasn't been updated in over a year (March 12, 2015)

Strange thing here though. It seems that on my tablet, i can still add new locations. I have no idea why and why not on my phone.

Well, I just upgraded my phone to Android 6.0 and now it's working for the default weather provider. Weird.

Does Zooper need all location methods to be tuned on to work, like GPS, WiFi and Mobile Networks?
I alaways use location: GPS only, because of battery saving, but this can not be done and have Zooper widget working?
For me it looks like I need to use all, but why is this?

The Developers have stopped updates for the app and it is a problem at their end, if you paid for the app, you can request a refund as it is faulty and not what you paid for.

I have recently noticed that when I set location in Zooper widget, only Yr.no works now for weather information. It's not often I choose a widget with weather info and location but today I did. Before I used to use Open Weather map and the weather used to show up fine for the given location. Now it only shows "Unknown" and "??". The same applies for Yahoo!
I'm guessing it's because I'm using a newer phone than previously and it's not supported. Plus the fact that Zooper isn't get updated by the developers.

Problem fixed
Hey,friendss I just solve the problem if u r also facing the issue of weather unknown and temp. ? Then change youe weather provider,i had change it to yr.no and within a second problem had solved .

Thank you for the OP on this thread - found a solution to my issue by changing provider to yr.no.

Have the same problem & been having this problem 4 a while now... Sucks bc it's made me abandonen zooper all together switching to KWGT... I can also get the weather to show with yr.no BUT it dosent display the correct info. I can also add a location but it dosent save it... it also has some location already in there like India or some **** says it's 89° & sunny right now... I live in Cali & it's about 45° and 45min to 12am... LoL

You are a savior mate! Thanks.

Problem with "Tornado" fixed
Good news guys, I found a solution in German Forum how to replace the Word "Tornado" with actual weather conditions.
All Credits go to this: Guy!
If you want to get rid the word "Tornado" simply edit the Text and adjust the german words in your language (with google translate) and it will show the actual weather conditions!
Sturm=Storm
Regen=Rain....

HTC Weather app missing lots of places

Hi,
Does anyone know where HTC gets the list of places from for the built-in weather app?
I'm trying to add Calais and Le Touquet (both of which are in the default iPhone weather app) but they are not available on the HTC app, grrr.
Sent from my HTC Desire using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
I'm finding this strangely limiting as well. Letting the weather app find my location works flawlessly, but if I try and enter those same locations which it found, there's nothing there... wierd.
please search before creating a new thread, there are several existing posts about this issue & what HTC have said in reply.
Sent from my HTC Desire using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
Well I've just trawled through 19 pages and I'm none the wiser....
I turned it off, because it doesnt have any smaller locations, and the clock thing on the front screen. Kept getting in the way, opening the weather thing whenever you got a finger close to it and having two clocks on the same screen looked stupid...
JAmes.

Both of those locations appear to be included within Weatherbug, which I've been trying out as I couldn't find a place in the HTC app for a forecast and also I wanted to specify locations rather than current location. Firstly I know what the weather is doing in my current location and secondly it was just generating extra traffic whilst out and about.
I don't think Weatherbug is as easy on the eye, but it has a choice of widgets and is far more informative, so worth a look at the freebie version imho.

[Q] "HTC News" stopped working

On my Desire Z i have a HTC Widget called "HTC News" which i use a lot to get my news.
However the 17th of December at 1:48PM this widget/app decided to stop working.
I havent received any news since this time. If i tap update in the htc news app it just dosnt get anything, like there haven't been any news since that day. The Apps settings is set to update everytime the app open up and every 30 minuttes. If i do a sync it dosnt get anything either.
If i however add some new RSS it is working inside the app but not on the widget. The widget just loads forever..
I know the RSS links are correct as they work on my Google Reader which they've been importet from. They have also worked for about two weeks before this startet happening.
Anybody else experiencing something like it? Or even better - knows a solution to it?

Delete / re-add widget?
Allready tried that
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Yeah -- I think its just not that well-written of an app/widget.
I tried reinstalling, and likewise it still refused to update. then I tried clearing out the user data -- now when I add the widget it just goes to the Subscription window and sits on Loading.... forever.
Removed and now I'm using the android "news and weather" widget.

[Q] Contact address show - default action

Hi,
when clicking on the (street) address of a contact in the HTC Desire HD contact app, I'm not offered a choice anymore. The default action now is to open the address in the HTC locations application. I used to get a choice between HTC locations, Google Maps, and other navigation programs. I do not want to use HTC locations.
I can't find a way to get the choice back again. I downloaded DefaultApp Reset by T.Fujii from the market and it offered to delete the default actions of HTC Sense and the Browser. I did that, without success. Looking in other threads the advice was to use ClearDefault from the market. I couldn't find that one, but I guess DefaulApp Reset does the same.
I can go to settings > applications > manage applications, and delete default actions of programs. In fact, the DefaultApp Reset just takes you there too. None of the applications I associate with my problem have the possibility to hit "clear default actions", they're all greyed out. I have looked into the following applications:
Contacts
Contact widget
Friend stream and - widget
HTC Hub
HTC Likes
HTC location service
HTC Sense
HTC Sync
Settings
Settings wizard
Location
Locations
Locations launcher
Locations widget
Maps
Settings widget
Street View
Maybe the names are a bit wrong, I'm not using english on my device.
After clearing HTC Sense and Browser with the app, no more new applications show up anymore that can be undone from default actions.
What can I do?

I never had the choice. It always went to Google maps, but now goes to HTC Locations. This came up on another thread - it could have been over on Androidfourms - and there is nothing to change to fix it on a stock phone (that anyone has found - maybe if it's rooted). All I want is to be able to see the full postal address in writing and then, *if* I wanted, to then see it on a 'map'.
After checking a few apps out I went and installed Youlu and it does exactly what I want. Shows the address then launches Google maps if you tap it. It'd be good to be able to change the application that is launched but you can't have everything ....
Dave
Hmm, that would suck. I'm pretty sure I had the choice once....
I figured it out, all of a sudden. When you are in the contact list, you can click on the picture of a contact in stead of on the name. Then you get a small widget that has a Map option to the utmost right. That one opens a window where I can chose between Google Maps and Waze, where I was looking for.
That doesn't solve your problem but does solve mine. Happy again!

You're right. Sort of .... On mine (latest OTA update - the one that was pulled) I get that widget but choosing the map option gets me Google maps. No choices. very strange that touching the address gets you Locations but the map option on the contact picture is Google ..... Me thinks HTC's software engineers need some better QA testing!
Dave
Well the choice I get is between Maps and Waze. So, if you don't use Waze - which you should by the way - that might be the reason you don't have a choice.
Or, it could be that you have ticked the always use this action box. You might be able to undo that, using the method I described in my topic start. BTW, it seems that deleting to many apps' default actions broke up all Auto Sync on my device. Got it up and running now after some fiddling around.
Easy check: download Waze from the market and see if you get a choice.
I'm wondering what the requirements for an app are to show up in the choice list.
wanted to post the same...
... question...
my dhd stock newest OTA update also doesnt ask which maps application should be startet.
it just opens "locations" instead of asking.
thanks for the workaround over the contact list, works fine ;=) but isn't a solution...
best regards,
mike
Any update for this problem ?
searching as you are
sorry, just a few days ago i searched google again.
no solution found :=)

[Q] Facebook photo upload not working

Uploading photos to facebook does not work for me.
The behavior is the same both when selecting photo upload from the facebook app, or when chosing to share to facebook from the gallery.
The upload progress in statusbar looks good and finishes, but then an error message is displayed in the statusbar that the transfer failed.
When initiating the upload from facebook a "popup" mesage that the photo could not be added is also displayed.
I tried wipe facebook cache and data and reinstall the app but that didn't solve anything.
I'm on AOKP build25 & franco kernel 18.6.
Anyone else with the same problem?

I have the same problem, haven't found a way to fix it though... I'm running pure stock.

Did you try clearing the app's cache? Logging back in and trying to upload a pic again?
Yes, I wiped cache and data and even reinstalled the app.

Facebook's app is the worst written in Android history. It isn't your fault- they just can't write an update without breaking something. It's a known issue.
Possible solution
It's maybe a little late to offer a solution, but today I finally found out what could be the problem:
I normally share my pictures with "All friends, except ... " (please excuse wrong translation; don't know how it's called in English) and all my picture uploads failed without exception. Today I wanted to share a picture with "All" my friends and... it work perfectly! I tried some more and it seems my problems are gone.
So my possible solution:
-> You have to share with "all", not with some groups or with excluded people. The Facebook App and mobile site is too stupid to work with its own lists.
When creating a new post, just tap the little gear in the lower right corner and select share with "all". It's no solution for pics you don't want to show everyone of course, but it's the only workaround that allows you to upload at all.
After trying a couple things, such as clearing the app data/cache, reinstalling the app from the market, etc. I suspect that this is related more to the APN settings on the phone. I tested this by switching the APN on my AT&T Galaxy Nexus from the Tweakker APN settings (failed to upload pics/videos) to the original CINGULAR 410 (works like a charm, although it takes forever to upload). For reference, the Tweakker settings had the APN as "phone".
Hope this helps.

it is enough to only have one list of selfmade friend list. U do not have to share to "all" but u can make list of friends that can see your pictures, call it for example "see mypic friends" and only have that in the . But if u share it to: "see mypic friends" and "mom and dad" at the same it fails

Request: Meal-time Bundle

Hi,
I've been using Sense Home since it came out but never seen Restaurant Suggestions in BlinkFeed 7.x (works fine in BlinkFeed 6.x). I do a lot of travel and would value having this feature on my BlinkFeed.
I tried various Sense 7 ROMs (S.Rom, IC, ARHD, SD, etc...) to no avail. It just never activates. I even tried tinkering with sense home's data files and databases, as well as HTC service pack's...nothing works... I give up.
If it isn't too much trouble, I hope a kind soul would take the time to upload a Helium backup or titanium backup file of their Sense Home with working mealtime bundle (no matter the city or region). I would sure appreciate that.
Cheers
Seriously, guys? No one?

Install Yelp app, clear data in blinkfeed app and set up from scratch. You should get a pop-up on meal suggestions, accept it. To clear data, go to app manager and select blinkfeed app.
Edit: Also check the personalize options. There is an option "Share my precise location" to get suggestions for nearby restarants and other places - check this option
Thanks a bunch for taking the time to help, its well appreciated. I have long been using Yelp and Foursquare as my go-to apps for restaurant & cafe hunting. I still get nothing in BlinkFeed or the lock screen.
I wish you & yours a happy New Year's,
Cheers
