Weather Update Connection Error?

smeg36 · #1 (**permalink**) 10-24-2008, 10:12 PM

Is anyone else getting an error when trying to update weather? I get a Connection Error stating "There was a connection error while attempting to download weather data. Retry?". If I click yes, it will just give me the error again. I've tried a soft reset, removing the cities, cities I've never used before. I get the error every time. The last successful update was 21 hours ago.

It's happening to my HTC Diamond as well. I was in the Sprint store earlier tonight in Downtown Seattle and the demo HTC Diamond also got the connection error for Weather.

Mine was updating earlier fine, I checked it about an hour and a half ago because it has been raining all day and I get a kick out of the rain and wiper.

But after reading this I checked it and also got the error. It looks like their server is having issues.

It has to be a server issue, we're all in different parts of the country and are getting the same thing. Grrrrr I am just glad I am not the only one not getting weather updates and that it's no my precious Diamond.

Sorry you did a hard reset, that sucks when you do one for a problem that isn't even your problem.

They'll get it working again soon I would expect.

i think that the server is being updated. i say this because last night when i got home around 1:30 a.m my diamond was acting up. it said that the prl was being updated. it had been that way for a long long time, i didnt mess with it thinking it interfere with the update. maybe this has something to do with the whole weather update connection error imo.

I tried to do a prl update today, but of course NADA, hopefully with this prl update the heat issue will be taking care off, then again maybe not since its the radio.
