Hi Nadavi,
Thanks for your info But, could you explain in very short sentences, what is the problem with the original HTC Weather plugin from the TyTn II ?
The problem with the original HTC weather program is you can only get weather for major cities or sometimes a city 25 miles from where you live or are.
I live in a small city in the bay area and the only weather I could get was SF or Sacremento, two totally different geographic areas which had nothing to do with where I live.
Something like weatherpanel is great because you can get weather based on zip codes, which are great for travellers or vacationers.
This fix basically gets you more options for localized weather.
Does the original weather plugin have Ottawa, Canada as an option?

Hi colleagues,
have the same problem behind proxy, so maybe your ISP is blocking some ports that weather tab is using?

Problem with the weather panel
Hi there everyone,
I have a HTC touch diamond P3700 and I'm using the original weather panel from the HTC. lately I have noticed that although I get an update on my weather regularly, but the icon does not match the reality.
for example, at 9:00 pm it still shows Sunny and at a rainy day it shows sunny but partly cloudy (and it was pouring outside).
What should I do to take care of this problem?
Thanks

Please see my post here for a resolution:

I am not sure if this could help:
I installed Weather Database Editor and after adding a few cities I unistalled it. It has to remain installed otherwise weather is not updated.

I am having the same problem, and have tried this fix, but it didnt work. Does anybody have any other suggestions.
I am also having this problem, and it says "There was a connection error while attempting to download weather data."... It cannot connect under, activesync, wifi, or HSDPA.
Maybe the accuweather channel is not working?
It looks like a server issue... tons of reports are coming in from Diamond and Pro owners
i have this problem too - I am in Greece.
Perhaps we should wait a few hours... it may be the channel's problem
huf, I should have read all the posts. I just hard reset my device because I thought it was something I had done....

same here, but I checked the forums first... there was no problem posted at the time, so I hard reset.
It's server-side, people... don't hard reset!

At least I was not the only one...that makes me feel little better
Same problem in Australia.
I wish the weather panel would allow us to use different sites/servers. Accuweather is catastrophicly inaccurate for Australia (and I'd imagine for most places outside the US).

Hi guys,
I'm on vodafone UK - same issue. As Draiko says, it must be server-side to give everyone, everywhere the same issue. Annoying, yes, but stuff happens!

So, is the server down? I could update weather 24 hours ago (my weather info is 24 hours ago) but can't do it now (with wif/HSDPA, etc). The internet connection is good as I can view youtube without problem.
Been having the same problem recently.. I was able to download the weather fine last week..
Does everyone have issue on other internet problem like Internet Explorer and Windows Live Messenger?
same issues with my Diamond today. Suddendly I can't update the weather...
Sounds like the consensus is that it's a server problem at Accuweather

Hi all!
Newbie to this forum, this will be my first post! BUt have been reading ALOT of threads to get myself comfortable with flashing my HTC Touch Diamond 2, many thanks to all who make the 'first time flashers' threads.....very helpful!
My problem is this, does anyone know how I can change the weather (the HTC sense one) so that it displays a more localised location?
I presume it uses a US website for its database, and unfortunately the nearest city to me that it picks up is about 300km away, and the weather differs greatly to my location.
I live in Australia, and the major weather websites (bom.com.au & weatherzone.com.au) have data for the city I live in (so its not like where I live doesnt have any weather data).
I have read on another thread (for the sony xperia) that people were using data from the weatherzone.com.au site, so was wondering if it would be possible to do so with WinMobile on a HTC device.
So does anyone know if I can change the database that the weather info comes from?
thanks

Didn't try it yet, but maybe this helps:
Manila 2.1 and 2.5 JVH3 Weather City Editor - Version 3.5 | updated 3/15/2010
solved - sorry all, I think I was either completely braindead, 'my location' was working perfectly.....I just did not recognise the nearest town that it had selected, (fairly new to the area), and the town it chose is across the river and not one that is familar.
Apologises to all......
FIRST POST............FAIL!!!
Hi,
Hope someone can help.
Had TP2 for 11 months. It died and HTC replaced the entire main board.
It came back with WM 6.5 and HTC 'SENSE' 2.5.20121225.
The phone in un-branded, O2 network.
I have been searching on here for couple of hours for a ROM thread etc relative to mine???
The main things i would like help on are.
1. The default weather program. It sucks. The old one on touch flow 3d was accu weather and that could be hacked. I think this one uses google location???
When my phone was first switched on it used googlew location to pick my location up and set the weather to perth, perthshire...correct. Then about an hour later it changed to 'Torbay'...WTF???. I cannot seem to reset the weather location to Perth, UK...when u go to add a city...guess what...my location isnt listed?
Does anyone know anything about the weather on Sense ?
2. On 6.1 i changed the colums to 4 wide and added the 64 program locations(tweaks from here)
Is there a cab/tweak for sense 2.5?
3. On the new 'lock screen' where all the apps are can you change the order they appear...it seems very basic...help???
Any help on this HTC Sense UI would be helpful
