Anyone find the TF3D weather useless?

I'm just kinda confused on the usability of this thing.
Ok the 5day outlook thing seems ok (if it was ever accurate), but why do you need to know what the weather is like at the present time? You can just look out of the window.
Also the last week it's been saying partly sunny nearly every day & it's been cloudy/overcast all the time.
It would be great if it showed what the weather would be like in say 5 hours or later in the day etc...
Is there any way to mod the weather feature to make it a worthwhile feature?
At the moment it just seems like something they stuck on as an extra to show the TF3D off.

this a smart question for collectors! thank you for bringing this matter to our attention
have you thought (before you started a new thread) that maybe some ppl are traveling and want to know how the weather is going to be at their destination 2 or 4 hours from now, 200 or 3000 km away from their windows?

it is just a gimmick. And not only that, a rubbish one to be honest: Yesterday here at Heathrow it was cloudy yet it said on my phone sunny!
If you want a proper weather app can I suggest SPB Weather, sadly though it will not plug-in to TF3D.
edit: just checked it today as well, same! "Sunny" according to my phone but its not, its very grey outside!

lol! never let me down. here it is always sunny and when i travel it was precise enough to help me pick the right clothing. maybe the meteorological service/site used by SPB is more accurate than the one used by HTC. maybe.
also the weather tab can be disabled. i hate to think at the complains if the diamond has not add this tab.

it seems pretty accurate to me, maybe you don't have any weather monitoring devices locally and it's using one further away

Possible but VERY unlikely, I live in London.
SPB Weather is far more accurate - runs with data from some Russian site.

ABSOLUTELY!
There's a reason; ALL these international weather feeds come from russian and chinese servers, running unregistered unified-model software, and running at resolutions of around 50km with no local topography accounted for. Local met offices run at 4km with detailed knowledge of the topographical issues (mountain, lake, sea, etc). They then claim a degree of cred by pirating the weather station HISTORICAL feeds to show accurate current temps on a specific station, leading you to believe the forecasting is credible too.
I am always facinated by the effort ppl go to on their weather apps (skins, icons, 1m res geo position) for something that if not even accurate at 50km!! It's SO daft.
In short, rather use software that allows you to specify your own URL's to image maps then get them from your local met office web site. This works for radar images (Storm tracking), forecasts, traffic cams, etc etc. Hell, or just set up IE bookmarks...

now you've nicely cleared that up, thanks!, I wonder if there is a reg entry or similar that we can change to point to a local feed?
p.s. anyone know where we can get a list of local feeds? For example, London ... maybe BBC.co.uk? Can't find it though and I doubt its RSS as this would have loads of "text" thats not required.

Thankyou for this enlightenment, but I thought of this already, that's why I said it should maybe tell you the weather in 5 hours or later in the day.
Unless you travel by instatrain or instaplane etc.. I still can't see the use of it telling the weather at present time.

Being a helicopter pilot, I use Metar's TAFs and briefing charts from the met office website to make decisions on whether it is safe to fly or not.
I totally agree with nin0. If I want to know the instantaneous weather conditions I get up and look out the window not pay for a data connection on my phone and get a semi accurate result. (That's just lazy)
If KukurikU can go 200km (let alone 3000km) without the weather changing then I'd love to know how???? In my experience the weather can change extremely quickly forcing you to land in a field until it's safe.
I'm going to try the mort script available here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=289197&page=86 (post #858) No swanky graphics but should give all the information you could possibly need.

for me it's useless and so disabled to

about quick changes of the weather...nobody can predict...complain to god the sudden changes of weather are not so common.
the main screen is not the weather "now". the main screen is for weather "today" and of course is not a promisse.
so, if i intend to make a trip of 200 km from town A to town B it might be useful to know that even if in my town (A) now is sunny, in my destination town is raining. that's even more useful if i am living for a trip abroad today at 7am (let's say to pay u a visit) and i want to know how is the weather in yr hometown 3000 km from my country/hometown. in both cases the "weather from the window" method is not helping me but the whether tab (even if not so exact) can help .

Not much better today - although the sun is starting to poke through the clouds.... shame the days are getting shorter.
Think I'll stick to weather.com or bbc.co.uk for my long distance and future forecasts.

it tells you the weather for 5-8 hours in the day. it is a forecast for today (all day). who told you is instant????
maybe they are updating it a few times a day but certainly it is not for "right now". so "instaplane" or not, before i start packing for a 3000 km flight i look in the weather tab at the country/town of destination and know if i have to take the raincoat or not.
weather is only a forecast...not precise.

You are obviously not familiar with the weather in the UK and would be extremely disappointed if upon visiting, packed your suitcase based on your weather tab on your Diamond. You would be better off packing your umbrella, sunglasses, and thermal underwear just to be safe. I'm not kidding!!!!!!

i might be wrong...it happened that the forecast (not for my country) changed during the day. btw, because of the "raining" animation i keep London on the weather tab all the time hahaha. when i feel hot i look at it to cool down a little...when u feel too cold you can also try to warm up by looking at yr weather tab for israel/ashdod or rishon leziyyon (i am in between) now is 8.30 pm and still 27 celsius
i see no fight here. i am enjoying very much our "conversation".
i was amused by the "why not look at the window". once again, ppl have to understand that this is only a forecast and if you travel and if you want to know the weather at yr destination you can not go out and see it for yourself (unless yr destination is yr neighbor's backyard).
as i said, here, in my country 90% of the time i got the same "sunny" and temperature from 25-40 celsius but i am using the weather tab when i travel to Europa and i found it to be very useful.

Missing AM and PM for most Clocks and Time software

I've checked out couple of software (PocketClock Pro, Worldmate etc) and i find it strange that many of the world clocks do not have AM and PM information visible. Is this some sort of a bug that iam expereincing or common for others as well? Please help...

AM and PM (or the 12 hour click) were once popular in Northern Europe, but now they are used only in the former british colonies - USA, Canada, etc.
That's from memory lol, but gives you the general idea. You might hear it in other parts of the world, but officialy it is not used anywhere else.

Well i always thought it didn't make any sense not to provide AM and PM option since most of the world uses the 12hr format for time. Anyways it took me an hour fiddling with different WM6.1 settings to find out where this option was lurking. For some odd and illogical reason (to my mind atleast) the time format is available in "Regional settings" instead of time and clock settings in WM6.1. This regional setting is also used by other time related software hence i wasn't getting the AM and PM available for world time in PocketClock and Worldmate.... which obviously is necessary if one is using the 12hr format.

USA fortunately still is not "most of the world" even if most Americans think so.
The 12/24h settings were in Regional Settings from the start. This is nothing new. And (3rd party) software should respect the regional settings as much as possible. FYI: date format and currency symbol are also regional settings and not mm/dd/yy and $ per default .....
And beleive it or not: most of the world uses SI, so speed is measured in km/h and not miles/h and volume is measured in litres and not fl.oz or gallons.

Most of the world? HAHAHHAHAHAHA! Didn't you read what I wrote? MOST OF THE WORLD USES 24HR...
It is in regional, because those preferences apple only to certain regionns and other parts of the world don't use them....

Most of the world uses the 12hr clock for daily life and 24hr clocks are only used for official and formal puposes to avoid any confusion.... Have you ever seen a watch with a 24 hour dial in US and Euorpe?!?!?

Yes, I own one. A normal Swatch.
I agree that almost all "analog" watches have an 12 hr dial and the "spoken" time is mostly in 12 hr format, but there is a substantial part of the world that uses the 24 hr digital time format for normal everyday use (and not only for military or official use).

I'm pretty sure you are trolling after this post, but I'll bite.
You are mixing up two very distinct things.
1 - The habit of people to pronounce this "15.30" as this "three thirty".
2 - Using AM and PM to distinguish between night and day time.
Those are two separate things. Yes, most people in Europe have 24hr clocks. Probably 99%, the other 1% are children, yes, only children use 12 clocks here.
In spoken language there is no need of a separation between night and day, because everyone knows what part of the day it is - NO ONE USES AM AND PM WHILE SPEAKING except USA, Canada.
24hr are used in written language EVERYWHERE. No one uses AM and PM in writing anywhere except USA, Canada, etc. NO ONE USES AM AND PM WHILE WRITING.
I'll repeat it again. MOST OF THE WORLD USES 24hr clocks and MOST OF THE WORLD USES 24hr time all the time in their normal live, not for official purposes only.
Next time ,when you don't know something, do your research or ask before you make ignorant comments.

where I live we never used am or pm (can't even recall if am is after midnight or after midday not easy to remember because pm could be past midnight / midday)
sure old analogue clocks are 12h but here they don't include pm/am
and all digital clocks use 24h format (even very unofficial and informal ones )
and nobody here ever ref'd to 24hour time as military time
but do believe that UK still use am or pm at times but don't think it ever hit mainland Europe
not sure about asia and africa

the weirdest thing about this is when you have the slightest understanding of general relativity, and look at this trying to connect the science behind it. SG-1 scenarios all over the place for sure, billions of past, ongoing and future civilizations in space, banned from visiting eachother via the awesome relativity laws
Do we have Cosmology/theoretical physics thread ?

Sorry to dissapoint you - but no. unfortunately. and sorry for the long post im about to write
Im kind of a science geek also, and Im updated with all the current stuff from theoretical physics and there is no actual way for us, or anybody out there to reach anyone else, or any other part of this picture apart from their starting point, for instance.
As it seems - the recent screw up with measuring neutrino speed was actually good for science (they taught that in 72 kilometers distance, neutrinos go 18 meters longer than photons but it was a mistake) cause it has been proven that Einstein was right, and that there is no higher possible speed than 299.792km/h (light in vacuum)
laws of universe are constant in every part of the universe, and for any kind of matter to go bigger distances there are only a couple of ways in theory:
1. entering some sort of "Hyperspace" (yeah, TV shows got that right) - long story short - we observe 3+1 dimensions, but on a much smaller scale, there is total of 11 dimensions (M theory) and our space-time configuration is only one of many combinations of all dimensions. If someone, somehow managed to change that, he would enter "hyperspace" where it would be possible to use "instant transmission", like Goku does. we are, on our current development scale, about 2000 years behind that discovery, and it may be very wrong (M theory, that is)
2. bending time-space: using artificial gravity, or using wormhole (blackhole that has sort of a tunnel that you could go through) - each method requires negative energy, that exist only in theory cause of the other theory called - vacuum energy. If someone is interested in that, I would offer explanation, and a simple one to understand. And we are also 2000 years behind that.
Seeing how we are more likely to kill ourselves before we get to the point where Gravity makes sense (biggest mystery in modern theoretical physics) - No, we wont go anywhere past the solar system.

think of it this way -
world record 100 meters running is: 9.58 meters, held by Usain Bolt from Jamaica. it has been long time (30 years when sport drugs came in) that record was ~9.80
and WHATEVER they do, and whit all the new drugs they invent - human wont be able to run it faster than 9 seconds.
Does that mean that somewhere in Africa there is an African man, that could do it in 6.5 seconds .. ? no. genetics are the same, gravity is the same, conditions are the same. now this is analogy that goes for: space-time-matter conditions all around the universe. they are the same. and ANY civilization that arose in universe would come to the same conclusions that we did. Aliens would have their Pitagoras, Aristotle, Newton, Einstein, Tesla, Bhor, Fermi, and so on, and they would also hit the milestone of the speed of light.
Kind of a proof that General relativity is right, and that there is no way of Faster-than-light travel is the fact that we humans didnt see anyone visit. And acording to science - Milky way is a perfect place for harboring earth-like planets suitable for carbon-based life (recent findings). There may very well be over 1 million civilizations just in ours galaxy, that CANT connect to each other.

Here's the thing those unstable planets for "Us" maybe stable for those out there? Ever think of that maybe there's other people out there that have passed us because of that there are so may factors that we 100% truly don't know.
Plus who knows maybe some can do a 100 meter dash in 9.57 and below I gurantee it.
Think there's a lot of talented people out their that just don't promote or bother to show others that they can achieve something.

Plus one on Dark Sky. Yes it's paid, only $2.99 per year, but I did the trial, kept it, and it's so worth it during the rainy season here in Tampa. It's very accurate in notifying the start, end, and severity of the rain.

the weather channel has become pretty nice esp if you pay $0.99/month to lose the ads. that's kind of steep but its the most accurate & reliable for me. it's more info now, less clutter. my google rewards app makes me enough pocket change each month to pay for it. the other apps mentioned are also very good, probably like weatherbug the most. I tried to get used to the weather underground apps update but I had to give it up. I would think they would revise the revision considering all the 1 star floggings it is getting on the play store.

FlowX has multiple 2.5km/px feeds. If you live in a valley where forecasting is often inaccurate, this difference in weather data resolution is critical to receiving actionable forecasts.
It displays intuitive color-coded visualizations of everything from temperature to pressure to ocean currents. You can also combine multiple satellite feeds. Use CMC HRDPS to forecast the next 48 hours and then swap to DWD ICON for the 3 days after that and then CMC GDPS15. for the 5 days following those.
