Help New Beautiful Widgets update fixes weather update problem

[Zog Bog]

Ah, so they ARE paid...I was doing it right then. For some reason I thought they were free. I suppose I'll have to start paying for some sooner or later...

If you only care about weather then Weather Bug is more a accurate App. However, with WB you don't get the icons, live wallpaper, clock with weather widget, and live wallpaper.
(I have Beautiful Widgets set to launch WB when clicking the five day forecast.)

anyone know how i can get beautiful widgets off 'authorizing purchase' and actually install?

This is a known Google Apps marketplace issue and has nothing to do with the publisher(s).
On rare occasion it means your credit card information needs updating but most of the time it's just a Google bug.
After a while it usually goes through on its own if left on 'authorizing'.

I love the update. I no longer miss Sense UI.

It's definitely worth the $0.99 (or whatever it is) just for the weather widget alone. The toggle widgets are nice too.

I sort of cringed initially when buying an app too, but once you get your credit card info entered in it's so easy you'll be broke in no time

I've never bought an app. Is that .99 a month or just a one time fee?

It's a one time fee only

It is a one time fee.

GPS widget still not fixed... other then that, love it.

 

[Steven58]

There's an option to force GPS, fyi, which I leave unchecked. Too much of a battery drain, it is.

I'm having major problems with the new update. The weather isn't updating, and when I click on clock, date, or weather nothing pops up.

You have to select which apps update when you press those features. It doesn't automatically happen. Hope this helps.

PS: the option to select is in the settings.

Yeah I was trying to pick the applications but some of them like date / time said they couldn't be used....but anyway I figured out my problem and of course...user error.

For some reason "using wireless networks" for location was disabled....DOH!!

Yay! My temp is no longer stuck on 90 degrees!

Yeah how its zero. That's pretty cold for south florida! Its also about to pour down rain and it thinks it sunny out. So far the update hasn't worked for me. I also don't like how I have to enter a local every time I least up. How about a little remembering?
If you use this with the live weather wallpaper does it do anything special ?

 

[BuTbKa]

What I mean is GPS widget doesn't turn GPS on/off, but instead opens GPS settings. Unless I'm missing something

Go to Phone Options -> Location and Security -> Make sure "Use Wireless Networks" is checked.

Still not updating for me. Gone back to weather channel widget and standard clock. I give up.

 

[2horses]

I bought and downloaded it, got pissed off trying to set it up (and I'm really not a stupid person) and uninstalled. Got billed immediately, but am still waiting for the supposed refund. Me no likey.

Why did you get so pissed off setting it up?

dROID RAGE maybe?

Thats what mine does. I think thats what its supposed to do. I like it because I can make sure my gps is on or off and not have to worry about a widget messing up.

 

[pugmom]

Loving the new update! Am anxious to see how much the new animation drains the battery though.

 

[BuTbKa]

No, I don't think thats what its supposed to do. Motorola widget does turn on/off GPS, and some others do it too. That is the purpose of those widgets, they are shortcuts to turn on/off Bluetooth, WiFi, Airplane mode, GPS..
Little disappointing .

after the update now my clock is not working right. woke up this morning...X time said 4:37a.m. beautiful widget's said 12:15a.m. refreshed but didn't fixed it so I deleted from home page and replaced it. that fixed for awhile but happened again. I did a soft reset and maybe that will be a fix... anyone else having this problem?

 

[larry1014]

I tried again yesterday and weather updating now. Hope it stays that way because it really looks good.Weather and toogle seems to be back working also.

lol!

 

[WishinItWas]

I had a few issues with the BW clock displaying the incorrect time, I reentered my location in the setup and it corrected itself. My unlock w/ weather animation was working all day yesterday and now its not

I deleted with widget and set it up all over again, rebooted and still nothing

 

[tdse]

My seems to be working fine now, clock & weather are both accurate, and it looks nice.
I don't get what the weather animation is supposed to do though. Just me, I guess.
