Galaxy S5 :: How To Get Weather Icon On Lock Screen
Dec 8, 2015
Is there a way to add the little weather widget/icon that you see on the galaxy phones on lock screen mode? (its and icon of clouds, sun, etc with temperature). I believe I had this option as some point and somehow deleted or was removed with last update. Galaxy S5 running latest 5.1 software..
How the weather widget on the lock screen of the S5 works? This morning, I found that it remained completely non-current, still displaying the night's forecast at the end of the morning. It wasn't in line with either the accurateweather or the google now widget forecasts, so I guess that's not where the lock screen widget info comes from.
So I restarted my phone, and now the information isn't there anymore, even after a few hours. So how is this controlled?
I'm completely new to android devices. On my wife's Samsung Galaxy S5, it seems like the weather degrees on the lock screen does not update. Is there something possibly not turned on in the settings of this phone?
Before you ask, I have gone to settings, lockscreen, additional information and it is set to "off" along with the weather being off. I was able to get it off once but when I did a restart, it showed back up and will not go away. It makes my clock on the locks creek small even though I have it selected to be large and I can't stand it overall. The only thing I want on my locks creek is the time. Also, I hate that it now says "verizon wireless" where the notifications were on the lockscreen.
I'm learning more about my G4 every day and like it very much so far. One of the things I enjoy is the weather animation on the lock screen. But it only shows the wanimation for a couple of seconds before it goes away. Is there a way to keep it on longer? It would be nice to keep the animation on as long as the lock screen is displayed.
Been fiddling with my phone recently to stop the constant severe weather alerts, but now it seems I no longer have the option to enable the weather animation on my lock screen. It used to be there, but now it's gone. what I messed up and how to undo it?
I'm looking for an app that can show the current temp on lock screen. Apps like lock temp or 4cstr doesn't show the negative temperature correctly. It can only show temp between 0 and 100.
For example here it's -12 Celsius right now and it shoes that as 88. That's not what I want
I have a paused icon on the lock screen under the date & time. I've had my phone several months & never noticed it before. Doesn't seem to affect or pause anything so it's just kind of annoying... how to fix? The icon is a shoe with a circle under the heel. Inside the circle is a person jogging kind of like the fitness app icon.
On my lock screen I've got the standard weather clock that comes with Sense 6 and below it there's a notification, but it only one. It shows a little arrow below it indicating that there's more notifications below and I can drag down to make the widget bigger. However this isn't saved and it airways reverts to showing just one.
I only had maybe v10 for a couple of days but I noticed that the weather icon on the second screen doesn't update with the home screen weather like my second screen weather icon is sunny but it's 7:54 at night.
my galaxy S5.I have gained an unidentified icon on the lock screen and don't know what it is.I will describe it as the following. a round circle with a shoe in the middle and 2 dashes --It sits on the lock screen to the right of the outside tempreture.As soon as the screen is unlocked it goes.I have tried to upload a screen shot but am having difficulty.
I've recently upgraded my Galaxy S5 and am having trouble with the lock screen.All i want is the message/whatapp and other ICONS to appear on the top left hand corner of the lock screen where it now says my carrier...All i want is the little icons nothing else.
The screen before the home page where you have to slide the lock from left to right in order to use the phone. Is there an app where I can change the look of that screen Preferably a free one.Anyways, I tried using it but nothing appears on my screen.I can't figure out why.I've deleted everything from the home screen, but still nothing.
Can anyone recommend a good lockscreen? (showing weather, calendar etc). I used to have intelliscreen but I cant get that anymore as rockyourphone wont install on my phone (3.1.2JB)
The application in Weather ( Microsoft ) and Weather Tap Plex
Both these apps have Lock screen capabilities, i.e., they can display the temperature with wall paper.
I'd seen that both of them work pretty fine ( except the microsoft weather app temperature is not accurate).
The issue showed up after I configured my corporate email ( microsoft exchange server ).
After this, though the settings show that lock screen has weather configured, when i check the lock screen, it shows the weather based wall paper, but the temperature never shows up.
I have tried these weather apps individually but whatever be the settings or options, the lock screen only shows the exchange server calendar and email notification and the wallpaper from weather App, but never shows the temperature.
I have an s6 and the factory installed 4x1 clock/weather app no longer works. The clock still keeps time, but the weather icon on the right hand side does not show the current weather, will not update, nor will it allow me to touch the widget and enter into the settings/different cities. It was working fine up until about a week ago. I've tried restarting my phone and removing/re-positioning the widget, but no luck. It can't be uninstalled as it came with OS.
The weather app on my home screen doesn't always display the weather - it often says there is no data available. However, when I access the app and manually refresh the weather is displayed and remains when I return to the home screen. Is this an issue without Android 2.2 or is the handset at fault? The same app works perfectly on my Hero running on android 2.1
For some reason, I cannot get the weather to show up on the edge screen along with the time and date.
What I've tried: * Going to Settings > Edge Screen > Information Stream (switched to on) > Weather (with Edge screen switched to "On") * Going to the Weather Widget > More > Settings > Edge Screen set to on and Use Current Location set to on as well.
The odd thing is that I did see the weather show up on the edge screen just once before, but how to get it back again.
Last night I picked up my Galaxy SII and must have accidentally deleted my AccuWeather widget off my home screen. I have tried pressing and holding the screen and looked through the widgets, and yes I found the AccuWeather.com widget, but when I drag it back onto my phone home screen. I get all weather for the next five days on my home screen as well, instead of just the current weather with the temperature etc.
When I bought my Icon, I noticed how there is no 'Never' option for when your screen times out. That option was on my 920 and it's a nice feature to have. Does 8.1 have the 'Never' time out option, or is it just the way it is on Icons, regardless of software version?
when im in a call my screen locks automatically even if the phone isnt against my face. i cant do anything until the other person hangs up.is this a settings option?
