Re: lockscreen weather widget

My lock screen shows only the time at the top even though i have set it to display time and weather in the middle.

 

Changing the settings has no effect at all. Has anyone else had this problem?

Re: lockscreen weather widget

Hi daztw,

 

So we can test this for you please can you confirm what software you are currently running?

 

This can be found by calling *#1234#

 

If you aren’t running the new ICS then I would update this via Kies first and let us know if you still have the same issue.

Re: lockscreen weather widget

I've got this problem too.

I can tick the button to enable weather display on the lockscreen but it never gets displayed.

I've had a few occasions where the phone completely hangs when the display is off and I press the power button. The display doesn't wake up and I need to pull the battery out to do a cold reboot.

I've turned off the weather display option to see if it's related to this.

 

For the record, I'm on the ICS update from Kies, and yes, I factory reset before/after installing.

Re: lockscreen weather widget

I'm not sure because I don't have a S2 to test this with, but this is what I would do to try and get it working. So bear in mind it may not work.:smileywink:

 

  • Setup weather widget on Home Screen
  • Set location in weather widget
  • Set refresh interval in widget
  • Exit out of menu
  • Restart phone
  • Set option for Lockscreen weather
  • Restart Phone

Let me know if this works...

Re: lockscreen weather widget

I am currently using Golauncher but have switched back to TWLauncher to test this on my SGS2 as I do recall it appearing after I first upgraded to ICS, and, the instructions below work on my phone, I didn't even need to restart the phone.

 

 

Hope this helps
