I am on ICS 4.0.3 for the Epic Touch 4G and I have the same problem with beweather widget freezing. I have since gone back to Beautiful Widgets and no problems. Hopefully this gets fixed.

I can't get the widgets to stay on the home screen on either of my tablets, an Acer A100 and an Asus tf300. Both running android 4.03. I move the widget to the home screen, the setting page pops up. I change a couple of settings and go back to the home screen. the widget is not there. Running the latest beweather pro 1.2.18. Am I missing something?

@Pfluger, any update on the freezing widgets on ICS?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] blackfoot:
@digidep -- are you using Apex Launcher perchance? If so there was an issue regarding it's installation as a system app/'normal' app which caused this situation -- I had it myself.

Placing widgets was fine, but move away from that screen and they would disappear....

@pfluger +1 on the freezing widgets.... (AOKP r31, Apex Launcher, TF101)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] digidep:
No, stock Android launcher.

Replace Default Iconset?

Took this off my TF101 because of the Widget freeze issue, lasted 2 days trying out numerous others and have come back to it.

I'm having another issue which I don't think is an app fault/bug, but after a reboot (currently ICS on the TF101 suffers from RRs and SODs) the default iconset returns.

I normally have the Plain iconset (I prefer minimalist graphics).

Is there a way to replace the default iconset with the Plain one I have downloaded? at least after a RR or SOD, the iconset would then remain.

I looked through the various file locations for BeWeather but can't find where they're stored. Anyone know different?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] digidep:
What was updates every couple of days has now been 16+ without any.

Hopefully they have something soon to address the widget freezing.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] pfluger:
We are still trying to find a way to reproduce the widget freezing. It is very difficult to debug an error that isn't easily reproducible.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] pfluger:
I guess this is because the sdcard file system isn't ready when BeWeather tries to load the icons. We will look into this.

The default iconset is part of the apk and cannot be replaced.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] digidep:
Can we help at all? Capture any logs?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Scarinzi:

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] blackfoot:
@pfluger -- thanks for the reply, is it a possibility that the default iconset may be replaceable in the future?

While not important in the general scheme of things, it has become a personal annoyance.

Widget size problems.

Hi,

I have been using an older version of BeWeather (the one that was free from GetJar) and the widget fits perfectly on the screen of my HTC Desire.

I just purchased the latest version and see that the widget doesn't come so far to the edges of the screen with the result that the location and weather text is covered by the image.

I've attached two screenshots showing this, the first being how it was, the second how it now is. You'll also see that in the first image the BeWeather widget 'box' is aligned with the calendar widget 'box', but not in the second image showing the updated app.

Reducing the text does sort this out, but makes it harder to read.

Does anybody know how to rectify this other than making the text smaller?

Cheers.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] okkazo:
I just downloaded the application because I liked the widget when I saw it on Nova launcher pictures. HOWEVER, widgets don't work with me at all!!! I tried them with both default launcher and Nova launcher, but neither has shown the widget up!!

- Launcher is Nova || device: Galaxy Nexus GSM

- 3x4 and I'm only using one beweather widget, in addition to, of course, other widgets.

- it has not worked with me, so I didn't change any setting

- nope

and I use Fancy Widgets on my device as well.

Quick question about this app.

I have the free version now. Will the pro verison automatically update my location? Right now I need to manually put in the zip code of the place I am at or it just stays on my home location

Basically does it automatically update location like the Stock Sense clock on HTC phones
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Scarinzi:
Yes, BeWeather Pro uses GPS or cell tower triangulation to use your location and give you that location's weather.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] digitaltoddy:
Video animations don't show, only a black screen. I've noticed this happens on CM9, however this is not an issue when I flash Slim ICS. I've tried deleting the /sdcard/BeWeather/Videos folder and re-downloading, but no dice.

BeWeather Pro needs to be updated on Amazon Appstore!

It would really be great if pfluger would finally update the BeWeather apps in the Amazon Appstore. I purchased it there a while back but it's still the buggy & outdated version 1.2.16, even though it was updated in Google Play Store on April 26 to 1.2.19. pfluger doesn't even respond to PMs, and Bellshare's online & email support doesn't ever respond, so I'm wondering at this point if this app has been abandoned.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] digitaltoddy:
They will play if I open in MX Player but they won't play if I open with standard video player. If I play in standard video player I get a "sorry, this video cannot be played" message.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] NotATreoFan:
Have you tried making MX Player the default for your system? Perhaps BeWeather relies on that setting, and as you said the videos don't play with the default.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] pfluger:
Sounds very much like you are using a ROM without MP4/H.264 support.

MX Player comes with its own codecs and will therefore play many videos even if the system doesn't include the codecs. BeWeather will need codecs included in ROM.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] QBall45:

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ScreamingSkulls:

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] blackfoot:
Bango.net??

Wondered if anyone else has come across this rather odd issue?

Bought BeWeather 2 days ago, having used the free version for a little while. Uninstalled old version, installed new, all went very well and I was rather pleased UNTIL I checked the weather before going out 2 hours after purchase (not because I needed to, I might add ;) ). And discovered that the update hadn't happened.

Checked settings etc, everything was ok, then went to the details/animated forecast screen and found the following message across the animation 'Connection to http://bango.net refused'.

Quick search on the net revealed Bango to be an online billing provider for O2 (my network provider) and to some Blackberry app devs. With a further reference to an Age Verification system introduced by O2 in 2009/10 I think. A quick trip to my local O2 shop and ALL of the staff were bemused to say the least (although they seem to be in a semi-permanent state of bemusement every time I go in), 1 of the staff had heard of Bango relating to Age verification but was convinced it had been scrapped some while ago.

However, none of this helped -- submitted a ticket on Bellshare Customer Service and nothing, nada, zero, zilch after 2 days (other than the usual autoresponder email).

I can connect and update via wifi, but not through my data connection and EVERY time I try I get exactly the samed failed + Bango message.

Any ideas folks?

TIA
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] pfluger:
Can you post a screenshot of that error message? This sounds really odd. BeWeather for Android does not use Bango service in any form.

Maybe some malware on your phone?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ScreamingSkulls:
....Going off that, blackfoot - Do you have any ea games installed on your phone or gameloft associated games?

Bango.net??

@pfluger -- thanks for the reply, yes will send screenshot, unfortunately on the move as I type, so will do it a little later.

@ScreamingSkulls -- nope, absolutely no games.

Have since run an AV scan -- no issues.

Have also uninstalled/reinstalled/uninstalled/restored via TiBu -- same issue: failed where the update time on the widget is (bottom of widget) and same error across the animation.

Forgot to add: Samsung Galaxy SII & ICS (Stock) 4.03

Wow!! Having major mental block here, how do I attach the screenshots? Can't see a button or link for attach... EDIT 2: Ok changed my editor to the intermediate one, but the attach icon doesn't appear to do anything... back later

Pop-Up Blocker!!!!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] blackfoot:
Bango.net?? -- Sorted!

Thought I'd put this in a separate post in the interests of clarity.

Well @pfluger it's not your app -- it's O2, they have a 'Net Nanny' type system going on with their Network, which is administered by Bango.net and somehow your app has been blocked (at least for me) on Bango.

To get it to work again I had to go through an Age Verification procedure to allow Over 18 materials to be downloaded to my SGS2 -- what an absolute shambles this is (O2 not Bellshare -- although not too impressed with the lack of response from the official Bellshare website!)

The O2 Customer Service guy was helpful and efficient and very neatly sidestepped my questions relating to 'How does a weather app get black-listed along with porn', etc etc...

Anyway, I am now fully functional again, thanks for taking the time... :)

Why do I get the error Java.LangNullPointerException?

How do I fix it? I understand what the error is but I don't know why I'm getting it.

Another issue I'm getting is when I restart my phone the widgets load forever (loading circle) and never actually load. I have to remove them and then re-add the widgets, losing all my settings in the process. Why wont they load?

This is still the best weather application I've seen and getting it on sale was a bargain, but if these errors are here to stay then it's kind of unusable.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] gollyzila:
I'm also getting the same error.

UPDATE: it's fixed. It was probably due to the Amazon server outage.

Hi

I don't know if this problem has been talked already but I couldn't find anything from thread with search. I'm trying to use "My Location" but I receive only N/A as weather. BeWeather founds my location as Finland and some forecasts for next days.

As location I'm using Cell Towers/Networks.

If I'm using fixed location weather shows fine. I would post screenshot but because I'm new user it's considered as spam.

EDIT: Ah, forgot to mention. Using Desire HD with ICS 8.2 AOKP.

I'm having a problem with BeWeather.

It was working beautifully, until the derecho storm came in the MD/VA/DC area. Now, my locations keep getting the severe weather advisory and there is nothing I can do to clear it. I've tried clearing the app data completely, uninstalling, reinstalling, scouring my Android database to find any cached files and deleting them to no avail.

Can the dev (or anyone else) provide me some support, since I paid for the app? Thanks.

Several people have asked me how i change my beweather icons. In fact in my litttle dev group im the bewather guy lmao (inside joke nevermind). So, here is a guide on how to make your own icon pack for beweather

HOW TO:

Fist, make sure you have 7zip installed on your computer. If you do not then search for it on google, download, then install.

Next download any icon pack from beweather. OR for now go ahead and download one of my latest ones here. https://dl.dropbox.com/u/9620875/alliance.bwi

Now its time to get down to business.

Create a new folder on your desktop called...well whatever. Keep it called New Folder for all i care.

The icon packs are in a .bwi format. Locate the .bwi file on your computer and right click on it. Move your mouse cusor down to 7-zip, then select Open Archive. Basically this allows you to edit the file (including zips and apks) without unzipping or decompliling. Select all the icons and drag them over to that New Folder you created on your desktop. Now you will be able to open the icons and edit them.

Edit the icons: Basically just do that lol. Use your favorite program like gimp, Microsoft Paint, or my favorite Photoshop to open the pic and edit it.

Make sure you save the icon back to the same name it originally was

.

When you are done editing your icons, go back to the .bwi file and use 7-zip to open the archive once again. Now that the archive is open, go ahead and open back up the New Folder you created. You should have both folders open now. Select all the icons from the new folder and drag them into the Archive of 7-zip. A box with pop up asking if your sure you was to copy files to that file...select YES. WARNING: anytime you use this method you MUST be sure that the files your adding are NAMED THE SAME or it wont work right.

Now that your done moving icons, You can rename the file to anything you want by right clicking on the .bwi file and selecting Rename. Just be sure to keep it a .bwi file.

Congrats! You now have a new icon pack! Call you Mom and make her proud that instead of doing something useful, you spent time making weather icons... :) :)

To install the icons simply move them to the Beweater folder on your sd card.

Hope this helps!!!!!!!!!!!

Server returned NULL result

Have the Pro version installed on my phone, decided to put the freebie onto my wife's ICS powered HD2, it allows me to set it up, finds the location using Cell Towers etc or GPS and even manually setting a local town, _however_ it won't update via a data connection producing the message in the title above.

I'm guessing it means it can't retrieve weather data from the Wunderground server, but why?

My paid version works fine, her freebie does not, surely the data comes from the same server?

I have installed/uninstalled/cleared cache and data, removed the Beweather folder and redownloaded animations etc. Still no change.

I should add that all other apps can connect to their online/cloud sources without issue, so it's not a data connection problem.

Been playing with this since about 12 today and finally determined it has to be an app issue, all other problem areas have been thoroughly checked.

My wife's phone is an HTC HD2, running CM9 ICS 4.04.

Any help would be much appreciated... :confused:
