Sprint Users: call to report if My Location weather is not updating

[boggsie]

EDIT: So, the concensus is that this is a problem with the My Location service as implemented by HTC _or_ a cell-tower configuration in your local which affects the ability of the phone to update "My Location" over the air.

So, call Sprint to report the issue.

Interesting ... I did a couple of searches and I was not able to locate anything relevant that was posted / updated in the past 30 days.

I have tried Mr. X, MightyROM and my own cooked ROM with OsBuilder kitchen. None of these ROMs work for me to update the manila weather tab Over The Air. If I connect via WiFi, weather updates just fine.

Using an Over The Air connection I can do anything else with the phone, with the exception of getting the manila weather tab to update. I have other weather programs that update over the air and WiFi. Manila weather tab will only update via WiFi.

<edit> up until Friday, July 2nd this has worked flawlessly for me, so it would seem something has changed, but it is odd that it would work via WiFi and not over the air

Thoughts?

Been having the same problem since the 2nd as well....I see youre in central ohio, Im in NE Ohio...

One odd thing, for the first time the weather update didn't list my town's name, but the name of a town about 10 miles east of me.

Might be an Ohio thing.. My weather wont update either but my sencondary location updates every time!

[boggsie]

Even more interesting ... any location that I add via the add location city database works fine; Ohio or not. However, my locale (via my location) will only update via WiFi connection.

I'm in NE Ohio too and have had the same problem with no updates since the 2nd, but added cities work fine... I was about to hard reset until I found this thread.

Anyone found a solution yet?

have had the same issue, since the 2nd also, i am in cleveland, oh. crazy. lemme turn on the wifi and see if the "my location" works. the last update i got was when i drove out to elyria.

i wonder if sprint blocked the update site because of the number of requests in this area. because it worked over wifi
