how often does 6.5 TF weather update??

[kgb247]

mine does not update either, i am running mr.x rom 6.5, 2.1. It seems to update every three as well, unless i run it manually from the weather tab. any suggestions?

Where are you people that your weather changes that drastically that you need it to update every 3 seconds????

I'm on C_Fay 1.1 and it updates every 3. I'm fine with it. I work in a town 30 minutes from where I live and it usually updates sometime before I get up and then again after I get to work. It's usually current by the time I get around to looking at my phone at work. I live in the desert so the weather doesn't change much. It's not a big deal for me to tap update on the weather tab. I will say that it would be nice to have the update settings in 2.5 incorporated into 2.1 roms. I'll probably stay on 2.1 roms until the 2.5's work perfectly.

I certainly understand that, I waited a while to try 2.5 myself.

At this point, Juicy's ROM works perfectly for with with a TON of apps & programs installed (except for manila landscape & I could care less about that)

As far as the weather, it is REALLY convenient for me to be able to glance at my home screen & know the outside temp. I work inside a building where I have no clue what's going on outside from my desk, but then I have to make numerous trips outside during the day. & knowing the temp outside is real nice.

When I flashed to a ROM with home screen weather displayed I figured I was all set. That was before I realized it took 3 hours to update. There where times where the temp had gone up 20 degrees or more after I got to work & my home screen had not changed. That made the feature totally worthless. If I had to manually update it every single time, it was no different than using the stock ROM.

Now, with Juicy's ROM set to update every 15 minutes it is ALWAYS right without doing anything. I figured this might kill the battery too fast, but I can still get through a full work day + easily on one battery (I have two spare batteries & have never used them once) so I don't even worry about it.

Colorado, so I definitely need up to date weather, since our weather patterns change every 5 min lol

Lol, I'm in So Cal. It's either sunny, or mostly sunny. Only problem is WM6.5.3 seems to be slow with the sunny animation (all others are fine).

having same issues as all -

different question - does your home page animation play once? or does it loop?

I have it set to update every 15 minutes & it does exactly that.

thats sense 2.5 we are talking about sense 2.1 also im not gonna switch to THAT ROM just for the weather to be updated when i want.

i noticed if you do this it will update also. go to a different tab. let it actually load the tab, then go to the clock tab. you will see your phone is trying to connect to the internet and then your weather changes. this i noticed happens to me with sense 2.1
