Weather app shows wrong location

I installed maps 3.0.8 a while ago and was working fine. I used weather widget frequently. Was in the USA last week, Belle came out for my N8 and I upgraded. Used weather widget there, and it showed me USA local weather for Wayne, near Philadelphia.

I am home now in Novi Sad and weather widget still shows "Weather for Wayne'' and the temperatures and forecast are for Novi Sad. I tried to go put get GPS lock on Novi Sad in Drive. No change. I can not remove ''Wayne'' in any way I tried. I am having correct
forecast and current temperature but I can not remove name of the location.

Any ideas?

 

News and Interests not showing weather on taskbar

Hello @streetwolf,

I solved this exact issue on my PC by fixing the location. The widget isn't smart enough to recognize my precise location, but it works with the nearest large city (10 miles away). The widget was working OK before and then a couple of days ago started just showing the icon you show.





Open the widget, click the three dots in the weather area and select Edit and Specify Location. Re-enter your location. If it still doesn't work, try a larger city nearby.

I find the weather icon in the tray useful, but the news feed is sometimes goofy and too slanted for my taste. If we could have just weather only, that would be nice.

 

808 weather widget - latest forecast not available for any location in India

Hi Musica,

Thanks for the response. Weather guide from the maps application works. It detects Banglore location and shows the weather as well as the forecast.. But when I try it throught the widget or the weather app (with the weather guide open in the backgroud),
I still get the same error message. Looks like it is something to do with the weather app/widget and strangely only for INDIA.



The map version is 3.09 12wk09 b05 - Map version 0.2.49.104



Thanks
