arelim 1 Report post Posted February 14, 2013 hi all! i was wondering if anyone got any clue about the stock provided weather app on the g3? how can you set it up, where does it show up? because, frankly, at first i thought that it is a lockscreen widget, but there is no settings for it it settings>security. i extracted the two files form /system/app/ named mtkweatherprovider.apk and mtkweathersettings.apk, and peeked inside. there are lots of yahoo weather icons, and widget backgrounds. if i try to install them, i got a "this is a system app and it's already installed, dumbass" into my face. attached pic about the apks.

arelim 1 Report post Posted February 17, 2013 (edited) it's a stock 4.0.4 ics. do you guys want the apk-s? oh yeah, got it from fastcardtech, in under two weeks. :) Edited February 17, 2013 by arelim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
reganlives 5 Report post Posted February 18, 2013 You have the standard firmware that the g3 is shipped with. I've updated mine to the one that's from 29th November 2012 so maybe it doesn't include the weather app. What's the app like though? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RussellS 55 Report post Posted February 18, 2013 (edited) I wouldn't bother with it. Just install something like Fancy Widgets which is an excellent weather widget. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.anddoes.fancywidgets&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd Edited February 18, 2013 by RussellS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arelim 1 Report post Posted February 19, 2013 thanks, i think it will go to trash when i update to jb beta. also i'm not hooked to widgets and the like, because of the battery drain, and i use the traditional weather checking: i look out the window. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
