How To: Setup up new cities in Weather for PointUI Home2

I have posted this on the community forum at PointUI.com, but I will repost here.
Picture
First, a quick note on the attached picture. The QVGA map is half the size of the VGA map, therefore the locations are off by 2 times. Just divide the X, Y coordinates by 2 to get the QVGA locations. To get a new location, use MS Paint in Windows (pic editor), mouse over where the city you want to add is and look in the lower right-hand corner for the X, Y coordinates.
XML File
Thank you to Montecristoff at PointUI for this first part:
A quick guide to add your own city on World or Today Applet:
> goto accuweather.com to find your city with its code
When you found your town on Accuweather website, the code is in your browser adress bar. You just have to check url to isolate it.
You could also use this to obtain the complete url : http://www.accuweather.com/rss-center.asp
> Copy the following file from your device to your PC:
Program Files\Home2\AppletRibbon\Today\Cities.xml (for Today applet)
Program Files\Home2\AppletRibbon\World\Cities.xml (for World applet)

On to my stuff.
I was able to add my city and others in the United States, but I followed the existing patterns in the XML file. The previous post entries on how to use the '0&amp' are partially correct.
Here is what I use:
<item>
<id>22602</id>
<text>Winchester, VA</text>
<x>85</x>
<y>44</y>
<url>http://rss.accuweather.com/rss/liveweather_rss.asp?metric=0amp;locCode=22602</url>
<newsurl>http://news.google.com/news?ned=us&output=rss</newsurl>
<gmtOffsetMinutes>-300</gmtOffsetMinutes>
</item>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
For the id, use the US Postal Zip Code for the city you want. Then use "http://rss.accuweather.com/rss/liveweather_rss.asp?metric=0&locCode=*Your Zip Code*"
Just replace *YourZipCode* with your 5-digit zip code, and *Your X*/*Your Y* with your X, Y coordinates. See code below:
<item>
<id>*Your Zip Code*</id>
<text>Winchester, VA</text>
<x>*Your X*</x>
<y>*Your Y*</y>
<url>http://rss.accuweather.com/rss/liveweather_rss.asp?metric=0amp;locCode=*YourZipCode*</url>
<newsurl>http://news.google.com/news?ned=us&output=rss</newsurl>
<gmtOffsetMinutes>-300</gmtOffsetMinutes>>
</item>

Note: I use a MortScript to update both XML files from one location. This may be helpful if you are playing around with this file a lot. I leave my "main" copy on my storage card and make all my edits there. When I am done with that, I shut down Home2.exe, run my script, and restart Home2.exe.

I`ve got a problem.
I want to add my city, but everytime i run home2 it crashes. This is the code i added to the cities.xml:
<item>
<id>EUR|PL|PL003|PABIANICE</id>
<text>Pabianice</text>
<x>359</x>
<y>58</y>
<url>http://rss.accuweather.com/rss/liveweather_rss.asp?metric=0&locCode=EUR|PL|PL003|PABIANICE</url>
<newsurl>http://news.google.com.au/news?ned=uk&output=rss</newsurl>
<gmtOffsetMinutes>60</gmtOffsetMinutes>
</item>

What is wrong with it?
Thanks in advance for any help.

There are a few things wrong with your script though.
1) The ampersand (&) is incorrect scripting. Replace it with "amp;". Don't forget the semicolon --> ";"
2) There is a space added in your URL line for your location
Change your URL line to this:
<url>http://rss.accuweather.com/rss/liveweather_rss.asp?metric=
0&locCode=EUR|PL|PL003|PABIANICE</url>

Just put all of that code on one line in your xml.

Thanks! it works!!!

Hi, I'm having difficulty with city Bandung, Indonesia..
Could you help to create my code?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Quite late to the party. But dire needs mean dire actions.
My dear old XT 860 has been stuck on a Boot Loop for quite some time now (2 years-ish I think). I've done the hard reset multiple time now, and I believe the only way is to try to install the stock ROM when originally purchased from Bell. But this is the only page I have found with the holy grail of link... And it no longer works. Do you guys know where I could find those files mentioned in the first message of this thread?
Thanks a lot
P.S. I've reached Bell, Motorola themselves, and no one could help out.

At this point, I don't need it, but boy does this open up some new flashing capabilities!

Yes I did. I tested alot of stuff in the past so I said to myseft, why not again. I have nothing to loose. So, flashed it, worked the first time with no problem. And this time the base band is good. Version U_03.3B.01P. So it's verry nice to be fully on the original system again. So when I will sell the phone, I won't feel cheap!

Good work, been waiting for this to pop up for months! Now I can finally get off this Mexican version and back where I should be. Curious to see if it fixes any little bugs that have been bothering me.

Hey Rick#2,
Is it possible to incorporate some of the stuff in this ROM with an updated version of the XT860 patch?

If its the same libs etc as the uploaded bell 2.3.6 fota patch files then it will just cause the phone to fc. Maybe it will work with roms based on a 2.3.6 system, there werent any but bell stock when i tried.

Wow - finally!!! I have started to think this would never come! Time to get my hands dirty with the XT860!

Unfortunately I get a 404 on the download link I could really use this file about now!

thanks, I've downloaded it... but I can't seem to get it to DO anything... can't seem to install it as an update.zip, can't get RSD lite to load it...
Anyone have a step by step on how to load this on to the phone?
EDIT: seems that my version of RSDLite was too old to handle XML files. upgraded to the version from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1348587 and managed to flash the file.
Back on stock (actually... first time I've ever had stock on this used phone...)

Any chance of getting this stickied or added to the info at the top of the forum?

It's not possible to modify an XML file directly. Your best bet is analyzing the AOSP source code to find out how which part of the code takes care of reading this attribute and check for a good place to modify that part of the code.

Once I rooted and flashed Shinjitsu kernal ,complimates of shinru2004. then i edited my build.prop to unlock the phones native features. Works Great.

Im rooted and unlocked boot loader with new kernel. What settings do I have to use on the router app?

That didn't work for me, just locked up. Using stock kernel though. Thanks, though.

Sorry, it just unlocks the options in the settings screen. they dont work though. I jumped the gun on that one.

Once the shinjitsu (shinru2004) Rom goes live it will allow tethering. Should be live soon. Still being tested.

The WIFI Router app that you can download .apk will work. I have been using it with my 510 and haven't had any problems. The settings have to be tweeked a little but it's up and running now. I'm using it to send this from my laptop.

So, which app would that be? And what tweets?

Ok I figured it out. Native Tethering working on stock rooted phone. Must have ROOT and a Kernal with S-on (I have Shinru2004 kernal at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2962932 )
It works.
!!!! EDIT at OWN RISK !!!!! DO NOT ATTEMPT, IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS!!!
1st: You have to edit /system/build.prop
change these lines: (if you can edit with an editor that shows line #'s they're lines 26,27,28)

ro.bt.tetheringUI=0
ro.usb.tetheringUI=0
to:
ro.wifi.hotspotUI=1
ro.bt.tetheringUI=1
ro.usb.tetheringUI=1
then save. Then edit /system/customize/ACC/default.xml
change these lines: (if you can edit with an editor that shows line #'s they're lines 191,194,867)
<item type="boolean" name="tethering_guard_support">true</item>

Hey thanks for the info, but when I go to edit build.prop it say I can't edit because I'm in a read-only file system it says I have to remount it to a read write system idk something like that. Do you know what this means ? How do I get around this. Thanks

Are you rooted and have a kernal with write protection removed? And what file manager are you using
