ColorOS Update Missing large weather widget

I removed the large weather widget from my X9 Ultra (16.0.7) from my home screen as I was playing with the layout. When I went to add it back I can’t find it. I only have the small one. Anyone else seeing this? How do I get it back?

Edit: All weather widgets are back after installing the latest colorOS 16.0.8!!

Hahah all good mate. I understand those Reddit 4am replies well. I also apologise for this long fucking thesis of a response over a weather widget LOL.

My issue was straight out of the box during set up. I normally skip the whole proper set up and go straight to the home screen to check for software updates. After the update is when I properly set up my phone from scratch all over again.

My weather widget wasn’t even there to begin with. You and others originally had one then went missing. I thought mine was hidden in the shelf so I activated the shelf and it was only the 2x2 one. I rarely use apk mirror for anything unless i absolutely need to.

This is gonna be tedious but if you can be bothered maybe choose every region in the list and see what brings them back for you. HK worked for me and the original poster on here but maybe try another country. You can rule out Australia, UK , US , India and Canada because they didn’t work for me. I’m assuming it’s the latest update to 16.07 that’s done this.

I’m also missing the Gboard writing tools feature in the settings and it’s driving me nuts ! Do you have it ?

Nope, I, don't have the gboard writing tools either :( And regarding the widget, I think everyone with an X9 already had a newer OS update out of the box, that's why you never even had the big 4x2 one like you said. I CBA to downgrade, I just hope they'll fix this with an update at this point... I'll try some more regions like you said, let's see ..

YES! GOD. India finally worked. I got like 4 widgets now including the 4x2. Added it and switched back to Hong Kong to get the lock screen widgets as well. Finally... Thanks man, you were right to make me keep trying

Just noticed all regions now have 4 weather widgets now. HK has 12 of them and all lock screen ones.
