Help news widget problem

[Rob_A]

on my Evo I can add news feeds my searching or supplying a url.


On the shift, I can only add the built in feeds. When I try to search, even for feeds that are obvious like Fox news, it doesn't find any.

If I enter a URL it always says URL incorrect.

Anyone else have this problem?

Hey, while we're on a software problem - for posterity, would you mind posting your phone's build and radio revision numbers? We really ought have that for the new stock phone rather than having to rely on some other site later when we might need it.

Thanks in advance if you can find time for this.

Expected to pick up our Shift already, but long work hours this week (and weekend) have prevented that.

If this isn't figured out by the time we get ours, then this will be the first thing I'll be all over - we're all about the news feeds!

Also.. just tried to add feeds on my Evo and it's not working either. The feeds I added manually months ago still work though.

I've given up on this problem. Seems like no one else knows about it. Not even at HTC. lol

Been using Google reader but I miss the widget.
