Does anyone else on occasions get put into safe mode when unlocking the device?
I'm getting kicked into safe mode everyday and i'm just asking if anyone else is having this happen to them so i can rule it out.

I did yesterday and the crash reporter pointed to Forecast. But, I did just turn on the setting "show forecast page on Lockscreen" a few hours before... otherwise, no safe modes for me using this tweak over the last week. I wonder if this setting I described above was the culprit.
Well that clears things up, it's not Forecast which is good. My Data Mgr is the culprit.
good to know. Mine might have been springtomize (both were listed in the crash thread). I uninstall and will see how I got for a while. Then I may install forecast again and see how that goes.
Nice! Crash Reporter is a must have if you are into troubleshooting issues.
Syslogd is very useful with Crash Reporter. But I Hulu suggest that you download the syslogd flipswitch toggle because that will continuously log data and that file can get big. So I just use the toggle to turn it on to log crashes. Once I fix the problem, I keep it turned off until a future problem arises.
FFS still getting springboard crashes, now it just says Springboard
I truly believe this is an issue specific to your device. I have no issues with differences between weather app and the lockscreen conditions being displayed. As much as I loved Groovylock with Widget Weather, it was very buggy on my system and this gives me exactly what I need and it is bulletproof (at least on my device).
The one thing I do miss is being able to use iWidgets on my homescreen. This is currently a conflict with Forecast so you have to choose one or the other. Apparently Ashman and the WW team don't get along so there may never be a fix for this incompatibility.
No idea. There's two tweaks now. One that says the standard Forecast and another that says it's Forecast iOS 7.
The standard one no longer says anything about being compatible with iOS 6. For that reason I've disabled update notifications on it.
My bad. The regular Forecast tweak you can find is now for iOS 7 only. The dev indicates that in the description, but did not bother to make a new listing. Which is why on my iPhone it shows as an update.
There is another tweak called Forecast iOS 6 and the description says compatibility for iOS 6. It appears to be a later version of Forecast for iOS 6. But it's released by a different dev. So I have no idea what that one is about.
I am on ios7.0.4 and my forecast tweak almost never updates on the lockscreen. It just shows "--" like it's waiting for the data. It sometimes updates after waiting 5-10+ seconds, but that's no good.
I have jelly lock running and that's it on my lockscreen.
Any thoughts, fixes, suggestions?

Do you have Weather.app permitted to use Location Services? I believe Forecast pulls it's info from the app, at least on iOS 6 I think.
In any case, if LS is locked down, try letting it be unrestricted (any app can make changes) for a little bit and see if your problem goes away. Assuming you aren't using LS this way anyway.
I don't even see Forecast as an app listed under Privacy/LocationServices ?
Forecast sometimes, SOMETIMES displays the weather, but only after a delay of minimum 3-5 seconds, like it doesn't hold the data from the last weather refresh to display every time the phone/lockscreen is activated. I do not have the animated wallpaper on or the tweak set to display on the home screen. Lockscreen only.
Hmmmmm... This is my favorite j/b tweak when it works, but I can't get it to work as it should.
Yeah I noticed but I'd prefer to keep the weather icon there but remove the description.
Oh well, it's not a big deal. Thanks anyway.
Not sure if this happened the last time i used Forecast with the Evasion jailbreak but does the temp & text etc etc change colour for you when a light wallpaper is applied or does it stay white?
Removed subtlelock and still no hours on top of the forecast page on lockscreen, even changed fonts several times but still no luck.
What iOS and phone do you have? BTW the same setup with Forecast and Subtlelock work just fine on my wife's 5c on 7.0.6 but not on my 5s which is on 7.1.2
