Help A few quick EVO questions...

Been toying around for about a week, and I have come up with some questions. I tried a search, but nothing seemed relevent based on thread title.

1. The stock EVO theme has a verticle widget for your favorite contacts along with 4G toggle, Bluetooth toggle, WiFi toggle, and GPS toggle on screen 3. I have removed the favorties widget and can't seem to find it in the list of widgets. Is there an easy way to get it back without going back to the stock theme, and modifying it again?

2. My HTC Weather widget on the home screen doesn't seem to update well. As late as 8:50am today, I sync/refreshed the weather, and I am still showing the moon and not the sun. Same thing happened yesterday...except an 8:20 refresh brought in the sun. The Weather Channel app is much better about adjusting to morning/night...and they always seem to display different temps from the HTC weather. I thought errybody got their numbers from the same source.

Can anyone provide any insight?

Oh...I decided to reboot the phone...and when it came up, I still had moon. The first refresh after rebooting brought in the sun...at 8:55am.
 
It is funny you are asking this, I was discussing this with my co-workers and was about to ask the same question about the HTC weather widget. Why is it still showing the moon at 9:06am?

On #1, it is the widget #2 for "People".

Thanks for the "People" tip. Based on the icon for "People", I figured it would be more of a contact card of some sort, and not the favorites scrolling widget...so I never even tried that one.

Did you reboot your phone to get the sun to come out on the weather widget?
