Help Circle Widget not auto updating

[strangephish]

I'm new here so forgive me if this had been discussed before, I tried searching but found nothing regarding this.

I just got the Razr M today and while it's an amazing phone I'm finding that my Circles Widget will not auto update the weather part, once I set it up it found where I was and that was the last synch.

I want to keep using it but without auto-updating I find it useless.

Am I doing something wrong here or did I miss the fact this doesn't auto-update.

Mine seemed to do the same thing for the first day, woke up next morning and all was well

Mine worked once I powered my phone off and on again, but I find now that in 3G it updates when I unlock my phone but in 4G it update about once an hour.

it may just be the blur widget setting. or a glitch in the blur app itself.

it should be based off of GPS settings along with data connection. so it is possible your GPS is acquiring a signal at the time it needs to.

just a thought

mine seems to sporadically not update as well... I'm used to it though because my DINC never updated.

I don't have the weather part of the app active, but I have noticed that the circle battery widget works sporadically on my M. Sometimes the number in the middle showing the battery percentage just doesn't show up. Sometimes that number gets stuck and doesn't change after charging, etc. One time it will be stuck, then I go away from the home screen then come back and it's working again. This is using Nova Launcher.

Mine was very slow to update so I manually entered my hometown. I don't travel much any way.

Mildly related here. So I deleted the circle widget by holding it and swiping it up, mine also wasn't updating, so I thought that by deleting it and putting back on the home page that might help. Well now I cannot find the circle widget ANYWHERE, I thought I had remembered seeing it somewhere before I deleted it, but now I cannot find it. Am I blind or do I need to to a factory reset?

*Edit
Found the solution, for anyone who may experience this problem as well. Went into settings>apps>all>scrolled down to Circles>disabled then reenabled. Went back to widgets in the app drawer and there it was. Very interesting but it worked.

Two weeks with Razr M (traded-in Droid X). Was also frustrated by lack of GPS location updating.

Stumbled upon a quick work-around (as opposed to a real solution). By swiping counter-clock-wise around the outside edge of the weather circle, it reverts to the previously displayed location. Multiple such swipes will "walk-back" through/cycle the list of locations that have been displayed.

That same swipe used on the clock circle changes the clock face from analog to digital, and the battery charge indicator to the settings icon.
