PLEASE CLOSE THIS THREAD
Updated 2/6 - HTC Weather Master 1.0.b4 now available.
Feature List:
Manage your current city list, delete cities, add them, change their order
Simplied interface making it easy to add US cities, World-wide cities and Countries...
Cooked-In support that allows chefs to force it to load once after the customization reboot...
Support for the backing up/restoring of your current cities to a storage card...
Support for auto-loading of backed up cities upon clean install (when in Cooked-In mode)
Changes since version 1.0.b3
Added a nicer start up
Attempts to clear current cache and journals when starting
New entries are sorted on to the list properly
Changing your state/country attempts to make the first relevant entry visible on the list
Changes since version 1.0.b2
Reworked how it manages the database. Startup is a little slower, but using the program should be much faster
Fix a bug with restoring a backed up weather list
Changes since version 1.0.b1
Added a Current Weather page for managing your current weather locations
WM no longer overwrites existing weather
Added code to fix the url which should make it work on all roms
Attempt at creating shadow copies of the db which will hopefully fix the read-only issues
Added an initial check to make sure the DB is there
Installs to the room Start Menu instead of Tools
Keep the feedback coming. I've removed the instructions and package for chefs until it gets out of beta. If you're a chef and want to play with it or include it, PM me.
Can the HTCWeatherMasterInstaller.CAB be used with out being cooked into the ROM?
JoeWilcox said:
Hey everyone, I kept getting frustrated that Weather Editor would often just refuse to add my cities so I wrote a new one and I'm looking for people to help me test it, especially Chefs. Check out HTC Weather Master.
Download HTCWeatherMasterForChefs.zip
Integrate it in to your ROM (I tend to put it in ExtendedPkg)
Edit a Config.txt and add: "EXEC \WINDOWS\HTCWeatherMaster.exe -cooked"

This looks amazing! I will test this out for my new ROM due tomorrow. BTW, you missed a ":" in the EXEC line in your list. It should be "EXEC:\WINDOWS\HTCWeatherMaster.exe -cooked"

Yes it can be. The CAB is for post flashing, and the zip file is for us chefs.

Great Program
Nice job on this program. Definitely prefer this over WeatherDatabaseEditor. I will continue to play around with it and will report any problems.
Very nice work... I have some potential suggestions from the users side for the final product...
It installs to "Tools" which was confusing for a second for me, but might be more confusing for others.
Defaultly starts up at NC, is this because thats where you are?
The Set button is cool, but I didnt know it'd wipe out my other saved cities, maybe a warning?
Again, great work... a big improvement over WeatherDB Editor which was also great!

This is great, you should add AppToDate support, 12
Am I understanding this right that I can install the cab to my Fuze and will then be able to add cities to my Weather tab that I am unable to add with the default weather settings? Is this correct? If it doesn't work for me, can I uninstall and it revert to the original weather program/settings?

Yes you can install the cab file on your Fuze. It adds cities to the weather database. You still have to go to the Weather Tab and add the location you created using Weather Master.
Excellent! Thanks for the program! I'm going to give it a try.
Okay, so I installed the cab. Installed fine. Went to Tools and ran the config program. I added my city (Batesville, AR) and it added it to the list.
However, when I go to the Weather tab, it shows my city name as Batesville, AR but it sits there...and then after several seconds will give me a connection error. I switched back to the other city I was using originally (Little Rock, AR) and it updated the weather almost immediately.
Any ideas? Is it not pointing to the right location to d/l the weather for added cities? Or did I do something wrong?

Yea, I'll reset the cab to install to the root instead of tools. Hopefully most Chefs will cook it in and then they can place the link where ever they want.

Try this. Go to Start/Setting/Today/Items and uncheck TouchFlo3D. Using Total Commander go to Application Data\HTC\databases and delete forecast_cache.db. Go back and check TouchFlo3D. Add your city and see if it will update.

I just tried it here and was able to add Batesville AR. Try removing the entry you added and readd it. If that doesn't work, send me you 2330fc3c_manila file from your windows directory so I can see what's up.

I wonder if I should delete the cache whenever you set the weather.

It might be a good idea to do that. After doing some reading in other threads, deleting the forecast_cache.db seems to be the solution for users having problems getting cities to update after adding them. I don't think it would hurt anything by doing it and might be a proactive way in solving issues before they pop up.
I deleted the cache, as suggested, and still nothing.
Maybe you should briefly run through the steps I should've followed to add my city? It doesn't make sense (to me) that the default cities will update but the added ones will not...I'm wondering if I missed a step somewhere. Thx.
Sqlite table error
I loaded the cab to my device ATT Tilt
When I run the program it responds with
SQLite error: no such table cities
Any suggestions ?
Is the tilt running touch flo 3D?

anybody else weather on ty tn 2 home page is way off.
Yes it is exactly the same for me. The entire screen is disabled.
Hmm what do you mean with that?
if you mean off as in the temp is not the same as the temp in you area then its your settings. it took me a while to figure it out. when you click your city there is an option to change to Fahrenheit or Celsius.
weather is right now..

wow..thanks, ima hvac mechanic and i couldn't figure that out.i feel stupid..
I have no city in the city list, the entire screen is disabled. I cannot pick up a city, nothing. My device is an official unit bought in UK, no modifications whatsoever.
Absulutely No cities at all in my list. I can install one of the cabs from the forums to overcome the original file but was wondering why is it like that. The options is also not responding. I also tried to import the XML file from my Hermes but my list is still empty. Ideas are welcome.

the xml file is a ROM file so if you are trying to overwrite the original file you have to use something like Resco Explorer or it won;t overwite the ROM just using the native file explorer - try that. I have weather working nicely for Hurricane , WV --- and you can rest assured that wasn't on the original list (but worked well after I modified the xml file and installed the 6tab modified plugin)
My weather is wrong but I'm sure I know why. I'm in Springfield Missouri and its pulling data for Springfield Illinois. Its strange that it isn't able to pull up a bigger city list that includes states. Weather Panel is an old and now free app that has no trouble finding my little [email protected] town.

That's because WeatherPanel is an 'active' application, meaning you put in a Zip code and it goes and finds the data. The HTCWeather is not active meaning it only knows about the cities in the .XML file loaded to your device. Over on the Wizard forum there are several discussions on the subject. My Wizard for example only has the cities I care about the entire file is only 5K, vs the stock 300K one.
Hope that helps..

Wow small world. I too and in Springfield MO.
The weather is actually very easy to fix, all you need is a registry editor.
First choose "Springfield, US" from the city list. Now open up \\HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCHome\Weather\Settings
Change the value of "LocationCode". It will be NAM|US|IL|SPRINGFIELD.
Change it to NAM|US|MO|SPRINGFIELD. That simple. Change IL to MO and redownload your weather data.
I also changed the "Location" value from "Springfield, US" to Springfield, MO just because i liked it better. hehe.

Hi all,
Just got my 2nd new Kaiser (first one had White Screen of Death) and it also has the home page as a black screen with the HTC logo; not too usefull. Any ideas how to get back the Welcome Screen that has your most recently opened pages and search? Thanks for any ideas...
Ok, well I tried just copying over the default_0409.htm file (checked and all the image files etc. were already in the Windows directory). This brings up the correct looking page, but the Favourites and History buttons don't work; they open File Explorer at the Windows directory instead!
Would be glad for any ideas for what is missing on my Kaiser that I could copy over from the Hermes.
I have attached the file if anyone would care to have a look; I searched to see if any other html pages were linked for example, but I don't know script...
I tried the same thing but no luck
*bump*
Does no one else want this start page in IE? Thanks in advance for any ideas...
bump, that page is on the Mio A501 and it's pretty neat !
Guess no one else likes that page, thanks for the bump though! I have been fiddling but still can't get it to work....
Solved ------> HTC's PIE_Default_409.htm
Okay, There are two ways to do this!!!! The first is time consuming & involves multiple registry changes. I can walk you through it or send you a registry file to import (if you wanna trust me ) or you can do it the easy way!
Easy Way: I'm sure many of you have the absolutely great proggy SK Tools. Well, the new release (4.1.21.x) has a "Replaced Rom Files" function. So either buy the great program or download the trial. Launch the "Replaced Rom Files" tool & check the box for the item marked PIE_Default_xxx.htm (xxx = your language code), either click & hold or check the box, then select action, then select "Restore Rom File". Then enjoy your new "original" HTC PIE Homepage with expandale History & Favorites!

LOL. It's pretty simple to correct with all the correct files. I actually just copied the files to my Windows directory when I first tried it out but figured I'd post a cab file to make it easier on everyone else
thanks for sharing, works fine on the Nike too.
Hi,
I tried running the CAB on my stock Orange HTC ROM, but I still get the orange homepage, not the (more useful) Internet Explorer page as promised above! Any ideas?
Your folder structure must be different. Did you soft reset after install? Otherwise you can do it with SK Tools if it was part of the original ROM.
I did soft reset, but no joy. I may look into SK Tools, although I have just managed to get Opera Mini up and running, so may play around with that instead. Thanks for the advice!

You can go into PIE under Menu, Tools, Options, and see the path and filename for your current homepage. It's possible that Orange uses a different filename as the default page. If you tell me what the filename is and where it's located I can make an updated cab for you.

You can uninstall the old one first.
Are you guys able to browse with PIE while on 3.5G/HSDPA?
After I open PIE, I receive this same screen on my Tilt, but I'm unable to browse anywhere (my hsdpa account is activated, of course).
I receive (in the bottom left corner) a message: "connecting", but nothing happens.
On the other hand, If I browse with WIFI on, using PIE, I can enter any URL without any problems at all.
In both cases, I can send & receive emails without any problems.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
As I replied to your other post, check your proxy settings. Which data plan do you have? Are you connecting to WAP or ISP?
Hey everyone,
I'm sick of trying to get the HTC Home weather thing to work. I've tried replacing DLL's, editing XML files, and installing a couple different versions. None seem to work so I'm moving away from this weather app.
I'm looking for a standalone app that will show me local weather along with a 5 or 7 day forecast. It would also be nice if I could store other city's to it as well so I can see the weather at different places.
I don't want a today screen plugin. I just want to be able to open this application, view the weather, and close it.
Anyone have a good program for that? Free or paid I don't care... I'm just looking for the best & most stable.
It isn't just a weather app, however SPB traveller when opened shows the cities you have specified with their weather, high and low temps for 4/5 days depending on the view you select.
It will show you their time and conversions to your local money.
It is likely to be a bit bloated for what you require, however it works exceptionally well and I haven't had any issues with it.

"Weather Watcher" is exactly what you are looking for. It will do multiple cities, current conditions, hourly, extended forecast, weather alerts, and a zoom-able radar of the city you have selected. You can set it to automatically update or update it manually. Best part is that it is free. You can get it here.

Thank you for the program. Seems to work pretty well. I had to make Opera NOT by default browser through... otherwise it wouldn't work. It basically loads IE into the program and you view webpages.
But... very cool. Thanks again

I liked Weather Watcher too, but it won't open HTML pages since Opera was my default.
I uninstalled Opera and it still wouldn't work. Did you have to change any settings?

try weather panel. in case you have the SP BMobile hsell, you can insert the program as one of the tabs. I love it. It's the best, and I've tried them all.

Hi there,
Where did you get Weatherpanel free, all the version I got asked for registration key and even if I put it in it still asked me for it again, like I never entered it. I'm using Pocket Weather now and its pretty good.(Not free though)
You can try this one. It's free and loaded to the gills w/ info. Including hourly.

I've looked in Opera settings and can't find the option to uncheck opera as my default browser....is it in Opera:config?...if so where?
Maybe it's because I live in New England, where weather is all important, but I find the Weather tab on the Fuze to be totally lame. I'm used to running WeatherPanel on my Tilt. I'm looking for instant access to detailed current conditions, forecasts, temps, charts, and radar and satellite images that I can put in motion. All of which I had direct access to on my Today screen via WeatherPanel, which would update in the background. On the Fuze, I get a static picture and temp (which doesn't seem to update on its own), and a link to an AccuWeather web site that never loads any info for my location.
I've searched all over; is there any better weather functionality to be used with the Weather tab in TF3D? To I have to trash TF3D and go back to a Today screen to get better weather info?
Pocket Weather is probably the most advanced available. I live in New England as well and it is pretty good.

Will Pocket Weather work on the Fuze as a substitute under the Weather tab in TF3D? Or as an added tab? I looked at it and I came away with the impression its a Today screen plug-in, like WeatherPanel, and would not interface with TF3D on the Fuze.

I too, abandoned TouchFlo and went back to my SPB Plus and Shell, and SPB weather. It was cute having a windshield wiper in the rain, but I'd rather have function over being nice to look at. Hence, no iPhone.
So, I've been using SPB weather, doesn't do maps, but does do fairly accurate forecasting. And since I travel a lot it keeps many cities a few clicks away.
James
Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the page update automatically if you leave "data connect" on all the time? Mine seamed to always be updated whenever I looked at the tab with this setup.

That's what I was afraid of, there is no way to improve the functionality of the Weather tab. Which then leaves me facing the decision:if I'm not going to use TF3D to go back to Today screen with WeatherPanel plug-in, then will I return by Fuze and go back to my Tilt?
I don't know what you're talking about, i have my device set to update automatically and my weather updates regularly. You can make it update manually as well. SPB only shows the highs/lows for the day doesn't it?

SPB Weather
For the most part SPB does show hi's and low's and some detail on today and tomorrow, but no maps or anything like that, which is all I need when I am mobile. If I need a meterological lesson, I'll pop on the weather channel.
I just wish there was a way to access the "app" for the weather screen in the touch flo, b/c the weather feature was some nice eye candy. And your right most of the weather apps, built-in or 3rd party can update automatically.

www.weather.com saves a cookie so you get all that super crazy info as soon as the page loads up. Just a though.
I've got a persistent data connetion too, and usually as soon as i switch to one of the cities in the tf3d weather, it updates right then.
My issue is the cities, or lack of some. I'm in new brunswick, canada, and "fredericton, nb" is not listed, but 'moncton, nb' and 'saint john, nb' are. I saw a couple posts about adding new cities using some sql apps & db inserts - is that how this one is updated? the last weather app i used , had an xml file I could update with codes from accuweather.com.
has anyone updated their listed cities? if so, how involved was it?
tks,

TF3D Diamond, Weather After Hard Reset
I have something different going on. Following a hard reset, my weather add-cities has changed. United States used to be at the top of the country list, and now it's clear down in the U's. Does the aforementioned database editor have anything to fix that? Otherwise, I don't need to edit anything, liking it as is. Thanks in advance!

I had to get a new fuze due to a bad radio in the old one. I had the weather database and CFNET 3.5 installed on the old and working. However, on the new I have forgotten how to get the apps to use CFNET 3.5 and not the older version.
HELP ME.
I know I navigated to one of the apps and it was in a drop down but for the life of me I can not remember which one.
Thanks!

Install .Net Configuration. See attached cab below.
Once installed, go to the 'Device Policy' tab and select version 3.5. Select 'Apply' then 'OK'.
also you can use 2nd today you dont have to abandon tf3d entirely
Thanks!! I even had that on my memory card. Could not remember what it was. HOWEVER, I still get a message that "installation of weatherdatabaseEditor 1.2.CAB was unsuccessful. Any thoughts?

Are you running a custom ROM? How about custom theme? I've noticed that 1.2 sometimes has conflicts with these. Try 1.1 Modified instead.

I've got a persistent data connetion too, and usually as soon as i switch to one of the cities in the tf3d weather, it updates right then.
My issue is the cities, or lack of some. I'm in new brunswick, canada, and "fredericton, nb" is not listed, but 'moncton, nb' and 'saint john, nb' are. I saw a couple posts about adding new cities using some sql apps & db inserts - is that how this one is updated? the last weather app i used , had an xml file I could update with codes from accuweather.com.
has anyone updated their listed cities? if so, how involved was it?
tks,
dwight.

it only update if you have wifi or data connection. It doesn't save any cache. I hate Manila Weather for this reason. It doesn't download a few hr in advance....
is it possible to change the tab to something else? like pocket weather?
I'm from Montreal
Don't have any custom rom. It is the stock ATT rom. I will try 1.1 and let you know.
Recently, I downloaded the latest htc wwe rom for my T-mobile US branded Touch Pro 2. I liked it, but it seemed like there was a lot of crap that just didn't need to be there. So I decided to create my own rom.
This is a solid, STABLE rom, but it's version 1, revision 1. I'll be making changes to this, but so far, it's off to a good start.
To start with:
HTC's latest shipped rom
removed co-pilot gps(choose your own)
removed radio(available as a cab)
removed audio booster(wired headphones what?)
removed facebook app(available as a cab)
removed google maps(available as a cab)
removed windows live(available as a cab)
removed msn messenger(available as a cab)
removed 'getting started'(who needs this?)
removed adobe reader(available as a cab)
removed jetcet presenter(I'll never use it, probably available as a cab)
removed jblend(waste of space for me)
MMS send and receive limits have been set for T-mobile US(no more small pictures)
NOTE: You'll have to manually set the T-mobile MMS Server to http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc (like I said, this is my first revision, this will be set automatically soon)
After a day of use, I idle around 60% memory usage, which isn't too bad. In future revisions, I'll be looking to reduce that number. However, if you disable manila and use the default WM home screen, that drops to about 45%
ROM FTP Link
The username is xda and there's no password.
Instructions are the same for any rom, just make sure you have an activesync connection, and run the rom update utility.
This is my first foray into the rom cooking world. If you like my work, and would like to show your support, consider donating.

Ha! Way to steal my 2nd post! Anyways, I'm working on setting up a download profile on my ftp server for xda users. I should have it done by 1pm eastern time. (that's in my first post, by the way) ;-)
Just to be clear this is based upon the unbranded WWE and you are customizing it for the US TMo or did you somehow get access to the US TMo 6.5 image that has yet to be released?
S
This is the unbranded htc rom. I wouldn't want the t-mobile rom anyways...to much junk in it.

I'm not sure I understand the question. You want to know if I used a kitchen?

Are you sure you're doing it right? There's a file called SGM10R1.zip in there. I tested it from different locations, it'd definitely there.
Try this: go to internet explorer and paste ftp://[email protected]
You should see the file then. Remember, if it asks for a password, leave it blank and just click ok.
EDIT: My mistake, I forgot to increase the amount of concurrent users on my server, it's usually set at 4. Lol. It should work fine now.
Yup its visible now... When u gonna be dropping v2? Also I believe his question about the kitchen was would u post the one your using.

Probably by the end of the weekend. I have a few tweaks to drop memory usage that I want to put in there, and the facebook sync in contacts isn't working because apparently I removed it by accident. So hopefully sometime before sunday. I'll update the main post when it happens though.
Thanks for the ROM~
Do we need to hard SPL unlock before flashing?

Yes. Standard ROM flashing rules apply. Hardspl is a must.

I'm glad you enjoy it. The second revision is basically the same as the first, with some speed enhancements. I JUST found that issue tonight. Apparently when manilla is running it takes over certain aspects of the os, like contacts and calendar. It'll do the same thing if you press 'all people' in the 'people' tab. I'm not sure why, because I didn't mess with any of the contact stuff. I'll keep you posted though.
also i forgot to mention that the gps is not working when i try to use google maps and the my location either. i dont know if its turned off.

I haven't experienced this problem. As a matter of fact, I was using tomtom the other night to get myself to a friend's wedding. If this is your first time using the gps after you flashed, run quick gps and then open google maps and make sure 'use gps' is selected. Then just leave it on the window sill for a few minutes(making sure it isn't sleeping). The first gps fix can take a few, even with quick gps.
Though, I will say the touch pro 2 is very slow to get a gps fix in general. My tilt was faster. :-/
ok I'm doing that as I type this to you. so you telling me that your my location works fine on your home screen. and also my alt key doesn't work on the keyboard
Yes. My location is 100 percent functional. The only reason I can see that it wouldn't work is if it can't find your actual location...but I'm not even sure that's possible, as it uses a different database for that. Does it not show up at all, or does it show 'my location', and then the weather data?
nope nothing still i did the quick gps and then left it on google maps for about 8min now and still searching for satelite at times it says updating location but then quickly goes back to searching for satelite
