I only changed the file ownership and removed all executable attributes apart from the MyLocation file. Worked every time. It comes with a GPS winterboard theme, but you can delete that folder in the winterboard theme.
Would be nice to see if that works as a friend has exactly the same problem on his ip4 5.0.1 and the Cydia download, app opens for a second and then closes.
Again reboot after install to being able to see app icon, open app, set "Sig. Changes" to On and reboot again.

I had serious issues as well. The fix for me was. Uninstalling all previous versions thru cydia/Ifile. Then rebooting my phone. Then downloading the GPS lockscreen in cydia by crazy. Then a reboot before even trying to open it. Then another respring for good measure. Then open it.

I couldn't get it to work no matter what until that

Hi I have a very noob question to ask as I said before I have been following this thread and was reading and trying to learn how to incorporate the gps into existing mods but as there were a few people with different ways of doing it I kinda got lost. Is it an easy task to undertake, If so would someone mind giving me instructions on how to do it please if you have the time willing to donate if that is what's needed thank you for your time

OK. Let's go (link of the modified theme : weather widget.theme.zip

Quick tutorial :

1) First, you must add in your theme the GPS script. If you use mine, it's GetLocation_Weather.js (post above). Put the file in root folder. Then, you must load this javascript. Add this line in red at the beginning of the Wallpaper HTML (in head section) :

Unfortunatly, the script can't work like that with your theme, cause there are small differences in the data recovery. So need to adjust a little. Edit "GetLocation_Weather.js" and add the line below (in red), at the beginning :

var prevlatitude = "";
var prevlongitude = "";
var textLat;
var textLong;
var refreshWeatherTimer;
var refrechLocationTimer;
var get_location = false;
var tempUnit = "f";
var updateWeatherEvery = 15*60*1000; // Update weather every 15 minutes

For consitency with your theme, you can add the real feel temp at the end :

function xml_GPS_loaded (event, request, callback) {
if (request.responseXML)
{
var obj = {error:false, errorString:null};
xmldata = true;
var effectiveRoot = findChild(findChild(request.responseXML, "rss"), "channel");
obj.city = findChild(effectiveRoot, "yweather:location").getAttribute("city");
obj.realFeel = findChild(effectiveRoot, "yweather:wind").getAttribute("chill");//Only accounts for windChill

2) Next, if you want to do correctly the things

, add a new variable in the Wallpaper.html to initiate (or not) the GPS mode. Search for the script section and add the line in red :

var gps = true;
var locale = "UKXX1186" //e.g. 'North Attleboro, Massachusetts'|'Moscow, Russia'|'Ledyard, AT'|'London, UK'

3) Then, you must find which line launch the weather update. For this theme, there is no external javascript. All is in the Wallpaper.html.
The line is in the "onLoad" function : validateWeatherLocation(escape(locale).replace(/^%u/g, "%"), setPostal)

You must change this line to :

if (gps == true) { UpdateLocation(); }
else { validateWeatherLocation(escape(locale).replace(/^%u/g, "%"), setPostal); }

Explaination : if gps is set to true, you call the UpdateLocation() function wich is in external GPS script. If false, work the same as before and use the locale variable.

This is the main part. Now, there are some optional adjustments you can make... (add coordinates, etc...).

Highly recommend Dacal's themes, they are the most fully themed themes and you won't find better code to study & learn from.

If at first you think, this is from the Dacal theme Basalt.
In the last update he made the GPS widget,
and it looks better than this.

I agree, on both counts

**Ian Nicoll** · 03-17-2012, 08:13 AM

Might as well share this here too.

(Posted it in the UniAW thread)

Special thanks to crazy, Dacal, in-fact everybody here, great thread.

**stratnik** · 03-17-2012, 09:26 AM

Come on guys, anyone
I added the last update on the original gps widget
and got this

This gives me a night icon

Does anyone know a fix for this?

//day
iconfix = "d";
}
else {
//night
iconfix = "n";
}

and change it to

//day
iconfix = "n";
}
else {
//night
iconfix = "d";
}

Just a little tip for those who don't Need to use any other location services and don't like keeping sig change on.

Turn on sig change so the status bar icon shows and close the app

Set the location sb settings toggle so it shows in sb settings probably already there

And use that from anywhere on the phone to turn sig change on and off when you need to update

Would be cool to have a separate sb settings toggle but this is a workaround

**bod699** · 03-17-2012, 04:36 PM

Thanks for the quick tutorial Dacal, I used it and successfully converted an old Legacy LS I am using from Schnedi to work with GPS.

I definately agree with this. How you doing Ian, and gang? Durben alerted me to the fact this is much easier to install and it works perfectly. I am currently working on a SB weather widget (first one I've released in like 5 months - it's for an upcoming theme called #Faith by Cukheim) and will definately want to have a GPS version of it. What the best way to go about this? Should I contact one of you guys off-line or through this thread?

As much as I like the 5 day forecast it takes a lot of space, so either make it smaller with almost too little font or leave out some info. That I found rather annoying, so I remade the PerPage+ Widget and this is the result

Basically the forecast for the next 4 days now only need the space of one as they change every 6 seconds.
I used the cube plugin for jquery, but it does not behave as a rotating cube, it just changes the display from one day to the next.
Well, not quite what I wanted but the end result is the same, 5 day forecast using much less space.
