I don't remember how... - Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I forgot how to make my standard clock/weather widget only display the city I choose instead of updating when I change locations. I get the annoying glitch where it shows numbers instead of the city. I did it before I flashed it again but I don't remember how. thanks guys!

Delete the widget from the home screen, then re-add it.

[Q] 2 Dock Icons/App Disappeared

I was on the phone and the phone crashed on me. This is probably due to the FireFly Live Wallpaper that I was using. Because this is the 2nd time. When the phone restart, it went into safe mode, and after restarting, 2 of my dock icons are gone. I can't reinstate it.
I believe some system files are corrupted.
Can someone help me? I don't want to wipe all data again.
Thanks

oh man
press: app menu (application), settings button >>and add icons
I don't have the add icons selection. I press the application icon on the home screen, and then press the menu button, and choose edit. Under edit, i can only add folder or add page. I can also replace the remaining 2 icons by dragging the apllication icons down. But can't add new icons...
Sorry, I maybe a newbie, and need more help.

Lost alarm to HTC clock widget.

Strangest thing, the alarm function is missing from the HTC clock/weather widget. The other functions remain; timer, stopwatch, deskclock and world clock. However the alarm is still on in the task bar. Any ideas on how to get it back? I tried installing a new widget but the same condition still exists. Very odd!

Did you by any chance freeze world clock?
Did you accidentally remove the tab? If you tap and hold the tabs you can re-arrange them or drag them up to hide them. My guess is it accidentally got hidden.

[Q]Two lockscreen tabs appeared

Im using wanamlite's latest version running 4.2.2 version samsung based.
Today two pages appeared somehow and only one of them is editable,and i cant delete it..here are the pics:
The problem is that the tab that cant be edited is the one that appears when unlocking the phone and it have small clock etc(tried editing in settings,didnt work) any solutions?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Its a 4.2 lock screen. I dont think you can remove the clock from it. If you can, i've missed it but I have looked.
If its a clock widget, you can just hold and move to the trash bin.

the problem is that i cant remove it from there(in the picture without that pencil icon) but on the other tab i can !
someone?
I think that u can only resize the clock widget. You may be able to remove it from the settings under lock screen. Hope this helps.

Temperature on lockscreen?

Been searching all over in the settings to be able to change the temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit. Anybody know where to do this for the lockscreen?

Maybe tapping on the widget with the weather on the home screen and going into the settings in that app

You might want to take a second look. It's not a global setting, but controlled by the app. So open the app that the widget is linked to and look in the settings menu for that app.
In particular, if you are using the default accuweather app, that is indeed where the setting resides. You may also want to recreate the widget to speed up the change i.e. don't expect that the change will always be reflected instantaneously.

OK thanks, I figured it's tied to a certain weather app. Will keep looking. Here is a pic of my lockscreen,

That appears to be the Accuweather app. From memory.. tap or double tap on the time or temperature on the home screen to open the full page Accuweather.. then click on the menu icon there (3 dots) to get into the app's settings dialog. Then look for the C/F or metric /Imperial toggle.
.
Hmm, Not sure where that app is, I thought I had it frozen in TB. I've only got one weather app installed right now.

That one then. Whatever it is.

I froze it and restarted the phone. It did get rid of it so I know that's it, however when unfrozen there is no actual app anywhere to configure.
*Edit it doesn't come back now after unfreeze and rebooting. Oh well no big deal. The weather app I do have and use is Weather & Clock Widget.

Stand alone widgets are less common.. and will be configured from the widget itself instead of a main app then.

The reason his app settings are not showing when he taps the the temp..
Is probably because he has the
Unified Daemon frozen in TB too.
I learned it the hard way from freezing it..

Here is what my lock and home screen looks like..
Here is a link to my 2 apks if you want to try them..put them in system/app ...just rename yours to .bak and you can switch back if doesn't work but should as that's all I changed..then restart phone and replace the original weather widget and make it 100 percent transparent.
Tap on the Temp on the home screen takes you to the settings.

Cool thanks I will try them. I don't remember ever seeing the second app "weatherdaemon2014" Maybe that's it.
*edit, those worked! I didn't have accuweather in system/app, though the weatherdaemon was. Its all working now, thanks a lot for your help!
Weather App - change from C to F

I am new and this may just be an old thread that has been resolved.
I went through the entire thread and didn't see a suitable reply.
On my newly acquired Galaxy 5S, I wanted to do the same; change from C to F.
First went through the Settings App and didn't see anything that would make the change.
Sometimes things are very simple. And this was something I probably over-thought.
What I did:
Unlocked the screen, and there's the "Weather App" loaded right on the main screen at the very top of the screen.
I tapped the "Weather App" box, which brought the "Weather App" full screen.
I then tapped the three vertical dots, flush right top on the screen. This brought up four options (black text on white background).
They are from top to bottom, 'Weather map', 'More', 'Settings' and 'Report wrong city name'.
Tap on "Settings":
Then, under "General", the first settings option is "Unit".
Tap "Unit", then tap the radio button "°F" to change from Celsius to Fahrenheit.
Unless you want to continue making additional changes, such as 'Refresh', 'Location' or 'Notifications...' you are done.
There is no "Save" button. The changes that have been made I believe take effect immediately.
All you have to do is back out and get back to the main screen by pressing the Home button to get back to business.
Hope that helps someone, someplace.
Best,
Robert
Hallelujah, I have figured it out. Press on the widget on the lock screen. Select change widget. Choose Accuweather (yes, it does not appear in your apps management list) A whole page opens up with the Accuweather forecast AND in the top right corner (at least on mine) (Note 4) you get the three dots indicating a menu. Press the dots and holy cow the settings for accuweather come up. And there you will see the temperature change option. Right at the top. Hope this helps.
