3,355 PointsCallback Error. OnResponse & OnFailure, not functional
I am unable to update the weather data on the app. The video has OnFailure and OnRepsonse written the way I do here, but I am receiving an error that I need to update their parameters in order ti run the code.
I have the parameters that are suggested by the IDE commented out in OnFailure and OnRepsonse. When I use these inputs, the data in the app does not update. When I don't, the app does not launch at all.

56,413 PointsAt the end of getCurrentDetails() you are returning a brand new, empty CurrentWeather instead of the CurrentWeather you filled in with the data you got from the API. If you fix that and use the updated method signatures in onResponse/onFailure you should be fine

3,355 PointsThanks.
It work with "Call call" set as parameters for OnFailure and OnResponse as opposed to the Request and Response paramters that we were instructed to use in the tutorial.
Would you happen to know why this was the case?
