Help htc news widget - cannot add custom feeds

[Rob_A]

Is anyone having a problem with adding custom feeds to the HTC news Widget?

Existing feeds load fine but if I try to add a feed with an URL(That I know is correct), I get an incorrect URL error.

If I search for a feed with a keyword, it never finds anything.
Even if I enter New York Times or something obvious, it doesn't find anything.

The only feeds I can add are the built in ones.

Can someone else try and tell me if they are having the same problem?

I cannot add feeds to my EVO or EVO Shift.

Honestly I don't use the news widget. Have you checked into any of the multiple rad apps in the market?

I've added 14 news feeds. I've never had trouble with it.

Thanks. But did u add them recently? I added a bunch over the summer but can't seem to add any now on 2 HTC phones.

I'm having the same issue on my Evo. When searching for a feed, it doesn't find anything and when searching by url it claims an incorrect address. I've tried clearing all data and a phone reboot. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm purposefully running an earlier rom - I had no difficulties adding Google's blog via the feedburner url manually, just now.

I'm guessing they broke this in an update.

Thanks. Now i know it's not just me. I've Googled this and can't find any mention of the problem anywhere else.

Yes. I've added one, or two, within the last month.
