LOL!

Look closer. You'll see that that is a screen cap of my old Windows Mobile phone. That's a combination of CAB files to make HTC Sense 2.1 w/Weather run on my Touch Pro and modify the clock to be glass like. I also used CAB files to clear off the home tab. Notice the Start menu at the top left?

This particular flip clock/weather does not exist in Cydia. I was using it as an example.

If you meant the widget the OP was using then just do a search in Cydia for HTC clock.
 
I think you have a fundamental misunderstanding of what MyLocation does. MyLocation simply gets GPS info from your iPhone and passes that info to weather widgets. There is no spoofing of location or faking location involved.

You're thinking maybe Fake Location, Location Spoofer or LocationHolic for faking GPS location I think.

None of those however will work if it's only your IP address that is being checked and not GPS.
You are right I actually am talking about LocationHolic my bad, not sure how I mixed them up. That app didn't work well for what I wanted but maybe you're right--it probably does look at the IP address for your location.

Is there any app out there to spoof that?

I don't think so. I think the best you can do is a VPN or using a proxy. Unfortunately, you're at the mercy of free VPNs and you have to be extremely careful with free proxys.

TOR or Hostpot Shield would be good. Unfortunately with those two you cannot choose what country you want an IP address from. You can control that somewhat with TOR on a Mac or PC by specifying an exit node in the proxy setup you always want to use, but I'm not sure you can do that with what's available as TOR for the iPhone.

Hotspot Shield I'm not too familiar with.

I wouldn't know how to do any of that stuff. I appreciate the info though. :mad:
 
The icon is always on because MyLocation is always reading your signal to detect changes. I used to use iWidgets and had MyLocation installed for that, but once I got Dashboard X and was able to place my Weather widget on the homescreen (my major reason for iWidgets) I uninstalled MyLocation. I use Forecast and Forecast does
not need it.


If you need this for weather on your lockscreen/homescreen you might try Forecast and Dashboard X. Or maybe Springtomize has something you can use. Either way, the only way to get MyLocation to stop displaying the Location Services icon is to uninstall it.

Where and how do I delete mylocation? I put it on and don't use it. Do I delete it from ifile? What files do u delete? It's not listed as a package in my cydia packages section. Thanks in advance!

Do I delete some of these shown in my pic? Sorry I'm kinda a noob. Just don't want to screw up my phone!

Well I think I figured it out and I deleted the mylocation.app folder and that seemed to do the trick. As I was browsing I noticed folders of stuff that I have previously uninstalled through cydia. Is it normal for it to just stay on the phone? I thought it was supposed to delete it? Or do I have to do it manually?
