How can I get only one city polled for weather updates and not use gps for my current position? I don't need the city to be constantly updated when I am on the go. Can't seem to find anywhere to do this within the widget settings. I was able to do this on my Dinc but can't figure it out on the Bolt. Thanks.

Here is how I did it. I deleted the widget and then added the HTC clock widget back. When you select it, go to the third one to the right I believe it was.

Then select your city and OK out of it.

It will remain static and not use the GPS location. At least it did it on mine...

Hope this helps.

Thanks, that's somewhat helpful although my small town is not searchable so I have to go with a city 40 miles away. Wish I could just enter my zip and be done.
 
I have the same problem with my town not showing up in the search results. Funny though it shows up fine with weather when i use Current Location.
 
you could also, instead of deleting it, touch and hold the clock widget until Edit/remove shows up on the bottom and just drag it down to Edit...my city also doesn't show up
 
Is there a way to add cities? Thought I saw a way on xda for other sense phones but could not get to work think have to be rooted.

Same problem, live in suburb of Boston and my town does not come up. If I use current town sometimes the google location might hit my town or the town next door. My brother has the same issue along with many others. The MyTouch 4G does not have this problem. I just ended up using the Fancy widget, same HTC clock set up and you can modify all kinds of things on it. I **** the regular weather sync off and use the Fancy widget for weather also.
