weather location auto update in manila 2.1

**DarkLord** · #1 (**permalink**) 09-30-2009, 10:49 AM

so i've noticed on each rom i've tried with manila 2.1, the weather location updates fine "out of the box" but once i start adding programs, it stops finding the location and updating. i know this has been a frustration with many people but i haven't seen any real solutions. are there any out there that i've just not heard about

I would start fresh. Install a program you want. Then test it. If it doesn't work after installing that program. You know whats breaking it.

i tried that at first. i thought it was the 2.5 icons i had installed (that's all i installed at first). so i hard reset and it found my location and started working. so i got bold and reinstalled the 2.5 incons and it worked for 2 days. then i started installing and testing. everything seemed to work fine. then i went full throttle and installed all my usual crap. after that, i tested and it can't find my location. do you have any idea how it works? gps and internet are working great. if i knew how it worked, i may can figure out what the conflict is.

All I know that it uses Google Location Service to get your location. Which is weird since I think AGPS to get your fixed location. I've been running Psyki for the past 2 weeks and It never stopped working for me I wish I could help.

so i found the culprit. it was the "footprints" cab. i have NO idea WTF it does but as soon as i install it, the weather location quits working. when i uninstall it, softreset and try the weathing again, it works perfectly. i did this 3 times in a row with the same result.
