Even after 6 hours it still said "updated 1 hour ago". So i think it just locked itself. And it never updated. I'll try the 30 minute one next. But no-one has had luck with this. How do you tell when it updates on the home screen?
I suppose I jumped the gun when I thought it was updating automatically, but this is for certain.. I can see that it tries to update and when it's not, I force the DATA connection to "on", and once that occurs, then wolla!, it's updated.. so I do know this... the DATA connection has to be on for this to work every 30 minutes.. I know mine stays on once I manually turn it on.. if I surf the net, it comes on, but then goes off once i'm off the net.. but the weather updates works every 30 if the DATA connection is set to ON, it's something that I routinely check now... I wish a cab could be created to have an entry in the registry that tells the DATA connection to turn itself on every 30 minutes, which would work great with the 30 minute weather update. but for me .. to have to check the DATA connection is not a big deal.. but now I can see why no one is successful with the weather update app. if the DATA connection isn't on, it won't turn it on.
