i've noticed that too, sometimes... Whenever you add a custom page to registry under CHome, sometimes it decides to take it out of the plugin order. I think I will try working with the CWelcomeCenter page, since it's already there, and it's ALWAYS there. Maybe that will keep it from dissapearing for some people. The only negative thing about that would be that you would have no welcome center anymore... but... .who cares about that anyway, right ? :D
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
ARGHHHHH !!! WHY ISN'T IT WORKING FOR ME :(

i really want it BADLY - actually your right organic, work with the welcomecenter please, maybe that could be a solution because i really couldn't care about the welcome center anyway :)

Thanks bro.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Alright. Give me a few minutes.... Quick question, do you see the welcome center NOW on your screen ?
[HTC Excalibur] ryanh11:
the time in the weather panel is wrong how do i change it? also it tells to make an internet connection to update even when im on WIFI!!! why? isnt WIFI a connection??!!
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
Actually, I don't :S

Any Idea Why?

I have CPhotoDialer and Your Programs Installed your (sliding panel launcher)

Could the fact that i have your sliding panel launcher installed the issue?

hmm - what do you think?
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
yes it is, he's still working on it, we gotta give him the credit that he has really worked hard for this. I'm in IT myself and issues do happen so give him feedback and he will work on it. Thanks for your hard work, Organic.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Nah I dont think so.

But here's a version that will update your WelcomeCenter panel. Uninstall the old one first please and try this. Let me know how it goes... And don't forget to reboot :)
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
just uninstalled the older one, rebooted, installed this and just rebooted. will let you know in 5 mins, REALLY HOPE THIS WORKS otherwise im gonna be sad lol cause i tried so many times today. :S

EDIT: OK OK GOOD NEWS, YES FINALLY - I DO SEE IT NOW LET ME GET THROUGH THE SETUP AND WILL LET U KNOW - AHHH I HOPE THIS IS IT :D
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
AHH YESSSSSSSSSSS :D

IT WORKS, YOUR THE MAN ORGANIC !!!!

thanks so much brother. There you go, that's what I was looking for :)

Now Issues:

1) It says 50 C when its actually 10 C (it's basically got it mixed up cause 10 C is 50F)

2) The Time is wrong, i updated it 5 mins ago, its 122 now and it says 1:00 am

3) Mississauga, "country= CA" (is there no way to change that to simply

Mississauga, CA

That'd be perfect :)

Finally, Thanks so much for your hard work - Organic. I really appreciate you helping me out :) So Far so good, if anything i'll let you know

EDIT: It does freak out when updating the weather lol, Funky i guess haha but why does it say 50 C wen its suppose to be 10 C?
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
1) Go change the Fahrenheit / Celsius options in Chome Weather Options on the start menu!

2) The time is not wrong. That's the time the weather information was last updated on yahoo's webservers, not when YOU updated it. I guess I could change that to reflect the last time the phone updated the info...

3) I will take a look into that.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Yeah, I dont like the fact that it "freaks out" either when it updates the homescreen. But aside me from using the testUIplugin, I know of no other way to update the panel without reloading the whole homescreen. Does anybody have any ideas.... ?
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
1) I did change it, it still says 50 C and then i changed it to F so see if it's mixed up, it still says 50 F - wierd :S and i don't really go with F, we use C here, so if you could fix that - that'd be great.

2) Ohh alright lol, sorry but yeah that'd be good, the last time the phone updated the info.

3) Perfect

Thanks for all the efforts, Organic. I really appreciate it

P.S: Fantastic app :)
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
Yeah, I don't really like how it freaks out either. I wish I could be of help but hmm, i don't know much about this but if i do come across anything, I'll let you know. Could you tell me what exactly are you using to do all this? What language or program?

Also, It's great that you are adding more pages. Oh Yeah, Instead of Mississaga, CA - i would prefer if it was Mississauga, ON but not a big deal - ON being the state, i think most of us would prefer that.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
What's your zip code or location code.. so I can look into that. :)
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
It's CAXX0295.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Alright.. fixed that problem. It will be released in the next cab. For now, put in "c" in the weather settings dialog instead of "C" and it should work for ya :)
[HTC Excalibur] johnnylavah:
i just tried this version and it works very well! thanks
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
Thanks Organic, that was it :D
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
Hey Organic,

You mind making a no auto update version (with the welcome center plugin) because it auto updates itself and freaks out every 20 minutes and if there's no internet connection (as I don't have a data plan) - it kinda gets annoying. Also, i get this error if there's no Internet i'm guessing for it to auto-update.

Error

Couldn't establish internet interpreter.Connection

Line 7(Program Files\NRG\CHomeWeather\Weather.mscr):connect("The Internet")

so yeah, i would def. prefer a NO AU version as that way I can AU myself when i hook it up to wi-fi. Thanks in advance for your efforts once again, Sorry for the trouble.

P.S: So Far so Good, I LOVE IT ! :D
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
I will release it one in a few minutes :) Thanks for the heads up on that.
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
you'll be releasing it in the next 5 mins bro? if so, i'll wait and install that otherwise i'll do it tommorow cause it's like 430 AM here lol and im getting really sleepy :(

thanks once again :D

EDIT: are you going to be putting any fixes in this version as well or just the "No AU" version? :)
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
Off Topic - I just installed Opera Mini 4.1 and man, it's AMAZING ! IE is nothing infront of it. I haven't used opera in over 4-6 months and wow, this is just refreshing, makes me want to surf the internet with my phone now, i got into all the sites. Only facebook had distorted pictures, otherwise - A KICK ASS APP :D

Thanks to you lol cause i saw how you said ur on opera
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
hey Organic,

i kno this is off-topic but i need some help.

I'm looking for the myfaves icon, just the circles, could you help me out? or is there anyway you could make this into an icon

http://limitededitioniphone.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/myfaves.png

(just the circles) so i could use it for my photodialer screen, no hurries - whenever you get a chance, Thanks bro :)

oh also, are you familiar with the cphotodialer? if so, do you know how i could do the following:

1) i have 12 contacts, i want only 6 - how do i delete the rest of the pages?

2) i want to be able to send sms to them as well but everytime i do, it keeps saying error opening file shortcut etc and oh also, how do you send a sms if you have smart tool kit instaled because i noticed, only when you exit it is where u have "Send SMS" on the regular screen.

Thanks for your help and i apologize for being so bothersome.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
First post updated with new cabs. A few fixes included. Read the first post to see what they are :)

And lukybandit... I'll address your questions tomorrow, I'm going to sleep myself. Too late and too tired...
[HTC Excalibur] hizad:
Dear OrganicM

What string should i add if i want to include hig & low temp in the Weather.msr
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
Great job with this version :)

Also how do i get my faves back on to the homescreen?
[HTC Excalibur] Technology:
It Just Disappeared, Gone

Mikey are You saying after installing the latest weather app, your my My 5 faves slide just disappeared? I have the same problems, plus the Start, All Programs, still will not work, although the weather app works fine, but it kills other functionality of my mobile device..............!:confused:
[HTC Excalibur] ameridane:
FINALLY!!!

Oh wow, you're amazing man. I was struggling so much with the first thread you started to try and get this thing working. This morning I got up (after getting wasted on my bday yesterday!) and tried it out and wouldn't ya know, it did exactly what it was supposed to and now I have the weather on my homepage (which is really nice for us new yorkers, we like to plan ahead). Thank you thank you thank you!
[HTC Excalibur] outerdepth:
For you and Mikey, all you have to do is go into your registry to the 2 places and edit the CHome part. Just add CMyFaves to the page order, where you want it, and do that in both places, and reload your screen. You will now have your MyFaves back. Don't even bother with the CHomeSettings link in the settings panel, it doesnt work.:cool::D:cool:
[HTC Excalibur] Technology:
Killing The Functionality Of My Device

Very good, but what about the freeze ups, Start, and All Programs not working after installing the weather app, this is the fix that concerns me most...........!:D
[HTC Excalibur] illi:
MiniWeather

Another alternative here

Thanks
[HTC Excalibur] Technology:
This One Works Like A Charm!

This one is the REAL DEAL, works like a charm with no side effects so far.....!:D
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Post updated with cabs that will no longer wipe your custom panels, such as MyFaves :)
[HTC Excalibur] goboi:
I tried that one as well, it's good, but I'm diggin' the dedicated panel.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
First post updated with a "TestUIPlugin" version. If anybody wants to play with it... Especially people that have start menu problems, or dont like the fact that the battery metere dissapears, or that the homescreen gets updated while they're in the middle of something. :D
[HTC Excalibur] ryanh11:
how do i change the icons in the my programs slide form being all red x? also how do i put my windows live panel back on my home screen?
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
AHH AMAZING !!!

That's what I'm talking about, Organic - You killed it with this version. Bro, you keep getting better & better and the best part is, each time you come out with a fix and i simply love it. Thanks for fixing the C and the Mississauga "country=CA" for me and for others - Appreciate it.

Quick Question: What exactly does it mean by Connect to the Internet? If i have it as "YES" ,what does it do? I'm not on a data plan, I have to manually connect to the internet i.e. WI-FI each time i want to update so let me know, Thanks.

Oh Also, I installed your NO AU version and the update interval says 45, so that means 45 mins right? What if i want it to update only when i want to update?

P.S: Were you able to look into the questions I asked you? :)
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
I seriously doubt my cab would have erased your icons. As far as I know... the windowslive panel doesnt even work properly. But anyway, use another theme for your home screen, or simply uninstall my cab. That should do the trick :)
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
The "Connect to the internet" option means it will forcibly try to connect. If you set it to N (no), it will try and fail. If you set it to Y (yes) it will first make an attempt to connect your default GPRS/wifi connection, before updating.

The no automatic update version, just doesn't try to connect every 45 minutes. Even the option is there and you can set it, the appliction ignores it and it simply updates when you run it manually :)

Still working on those other questions... :)
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
So if i understand you right, If i have it set as "N" then that just means it'll only connect when i hit update? or the other way around lol :S i feel slow, sorry

So basically, the no AU version, even though the update interval is there, it doesn't do anything because it's set for updating manually when i want to, right?

And thanks for still working on those other questions

- I really want that MyFaves icon, the circles (like a proper icon) as I want to use it

- I have 12 pages, i rather just have 6 as I've got them up and running, set the names & phone numbers and i rather have 6 fave contacts than 12.

Thanks once again :)

EDIT: That's how My Faves looks right now, I love the way it looks except that icon i have right now, it's for "Active" when you go to the sliding panel, i want the regular circles for inactive that is before i go to the my faves panel. I just noticed - I love how it just says Mississauga, 17 C under My Faves. PERFECT :D
[HTC Excalibur] ryanh11:
im talking about the icons in the my programs panel they r all red x's...how can i change them? and also how can i set the time zone in the weather panel?
[HTC Excalibur] outerdepth:
Organic Check This Out

I added a 2nd page to your weather that shows the forecast for your city. Mine is Memphis, but the way it's written, it will update your city's forecast and its name will be inserted. You do have to make a 2nd page reg entry, but that shouldn't be difficult. I will upload my reg files and updated .mscr for you or anyone who's interested.:D
[HTC Excalibur] ryanh11:
can someone please help me with getting MY Programs panel on my homescreen and with the correct icons
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
ahhh OUTERDEPTH - I WANT THAT MYFAVES ICON BRO ! can you please get it to me somehow? I'd really appreciate it.

Good job on adding the second page :) - looking forward to a 7 day forecast in 7 pages or something.
[HTC Excalibur] ryanh11:
i installed it and it didnt add a new page...am i doing something wrong? all it did was get rid of my only weather panel
[HTC Excalibur] outerdepth:
You Want It, You Got It!

Here you go. ENJOY!:cool:
[HTC Excalibur] outerdepth:
Did you reboot your phone?
[HTC Excalibur] ryanh11:
yes...all i had to do was open the zip file on my phone rite? and then enter both registry values? what do i do with the mscr file?
[HTC Excalibur] pudgedaddy:
Awwww Damn! Now i cant get the weather slider to come up again. did the uninstall and re-install and still no dice. ahhhh! and yes i soft -rebooted my phone

ok i think i figured out my problem. i have no earthly idea how this happened ( others having this issue might also check this)

but in page1 and page2 (with outerdepths add-on) the actionurl,pictures, and sk2url were all wrong. non of them had any "\" in them

so in other words it looked like this: " program filesNRGChomeWeatherWeather.exe " instead of \program files\NRG\ChomeWeather\Weather.exe

i did all the changes and rebooted my phone and now the weather app is back on my sliding panels
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
THANK YOU BRO ! I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR IT ALL OVER :D

really really appreciate it !!! :)
[HTC Excalibur] outerdepth:
Sorry about that!

No,

You have to extract the contents of the zip to your phone. That means got to the Program Files\NRG\CHomeWeather folder and place the mscr file in there. Next you update your registry. Just extract the reg keys to your phone and click on them. That should do it.

If after you reboot your phone, it doesn't show the 2nd page, it probably means the reg keys did not update. I have run into this problem a couple of times myself. My phone even said registry updated successfully, but after a reboot my registry was not updated successfully. So, I had to manually enter the 2nd page for my registry.

Try it and let me know what's going on.

Good luck, and sorry if i pissed anyone off. I did exactly as I told you and mine works perfectly. I don't know what's wrong. Hope my suggestions help.
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
Hey Outerdepth,

Thanks so much once again for the icons, I just set it up - looks perfect :)

p.s: do you know how to get rid of the pages cause i have 12 and i only want 6? also, i want to know how to send sms as well because i got smarttoolkit installed and i don't know how i can use it to send sms and if i exit smart tool kit, then in the regular menu - it says send sms but when i hit that, it says error opening file or shortcut :(

if i get those two sorted out, i'm a happy man as that's all i'm looking to do because after that, i would have myfaves, just the way i want it.

Thanks in advance for your help and sorry, i know this is offtopic.
[HTC Excalibur] ryanh11:
ok i did what u said and then i rebooted...all it did was get rid of my weather panel
[HTC Excalibur] outerdepth:
Easy fix!

No Problem,

Go into your registry and where the CHome entries are, just remove Page7,Page8, page.... When I say CHome, I don't mean remove the keys, I mean where it says Pages under the CHome Key, edit the line that says Pages. Just double click that and delete those pages for contacts you don't want or need. To add a page, you just copy one of the other pages exactly and enter all of the values it has. Reboot and your good to go.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
outdepth, I appreciate the work, but I'm working on a release a cab that does that as well. I'd appreciate it if you didn't release updates that might not be compatible with the cabs I will release a little later today. :) If we do this, it's only going to add confusion and if I change any of the variable names in the script, it will not display anything at all.
[HTC Excalibur] outerdepth:
REALLY!?!

You have already updated your registry? That's quick. Make sure that it shows those pages in your registry or it will not show in the panel. Anyway, all I have given you is reg entries and an mscr. Neither one of these changes (even if they were wrong) would kill that panel from displaying unless your registry is not showing correctly. I am using the most recent OrganicM cab as well (I just wanted to clerify that.)
[HTC Excalibur] outerdepth:
My Bad.

Sorry man, didn't realize I was screwing with your stuff. Hope there's no hard feelings. By the way did you check my P.M. Would appreciate it. Thanks for the heads up.:D
[HTC Excalibur] ryanh11:
can someone please help with changing the time zone in the weather panel?
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Dude, the time zone should match the location you put in and it gets downloaded directly from Yahoo's servers. You can't change it (as of now anyway). Does it now show up correctly for you, or what ?
[HTC Excalibur] kron2:
downloaded your weather app and have to say it works like a charm so far on the t_mobile shadow good work and looking forward to extended forecast update :)
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Really... I didnt expect it work on the Shadow out of the box. Good to know :) And extended forecasts are coming, that's for sure.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Guys.... I'm dumping Yahoo as a weather source and I'm going to try this website...

http://www.rssweather.com/hw3.php?pands=89103

It shows detailed forecasts for several days ahead and it generally give me a lot more info to work with. Will post a new version today, using this weather provider :)
[HTC Excalibur] showaco:
OrganicM, is there anyway you could put a build/version number or something on your cabs? You're updating so fast its hard to keep up with what the latest is and it might make it easier to debug if you knew which build people were using when they have problems. Keep up the good work.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Hmmm maybe even "Weather Underground"

http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=89102

They booth look pretty darn good...
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
I could do that. That's a good idea.
[HTC Excalibur] showaco:
I just checked both sites from my pc and changed to my zipcode on both. For me, the RSS feed updated twice as quick as the wunderground. Could make a difference in your reload times.
[HTC Excalibur] kron2:
i am running wm6.1 that nd4spd cooked one thing I noticed is recent programs is not showing now but who needs it
[HTC Excalibur] ryanh11:
nope its always an hour behind and it says CDT instead of CST
[HTC Excalibur] kron2:
i have edt and off by six min.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
It's not an hour behind, it's when the weather got updated last, on Yahoo's servers.
[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
Guys, The time on the weather panel is not the "Current Time". It's the time when the weather last got updated just like Organic said. Sorry Organic, just thought I'd say it again :P

P.S: How's the new version coming out? By the way, this versions been ROCK SOLID so far ! :D
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Yeah, the TestUI version works a lot better.... The only flaw in it, is it the homescreen won't reload once you try to change a background or color scheme... As you disable the testui plugin it's fine, so I'm sure there's some bug in it that keeps it from reloading properly :( But if you're not the type to switch themes too often, you should be fine. Besides, if you do switch to another theme, you can just reboot the phone and the new theme will come on :)
[HTC Excalibur] goboi:
This is gettin' better and better! Just one thing to remind everyone is if you go in and even look at a setting in Weather Options you MUST enter a value. If you go in just to look at it (and arn't paying attention and click "YES") then you are entering nothing and the value goes from whatever was in there to nothing.

On a side note: you mention that the update time is 45min, can this be brought down to 30 or 15? Or is this not recomended? Thanks for all your hard work... now I don't need to change homescreens- I'm a weather freak!:D
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Yeah, that's a problem I've been meaning to fix with the options. The interval should probably be around 1 hour since that's how often Yahoo updates the info anyway, any sooner than that is just a waste.
[HTC Excalibur] goboi:
Roger that... I'll stick with the 45 min. then. Again, thanks for all your hard work.
[HTC Excalibur] goyjuss:
Start Menu Display

First thanks to OrganicM for putting this thing together.

I've got a bug to report: I'm using this on my BlackJack1 with WM6.1 B2 from Da_G. After the weather panel updates on my Homescreen, whenever I go to my Start Menu my Programs List is not visible. I can see the top and bottom menu bars but nothing in between. This is the same for Recent Programs and All Programs. My work around has been to use SmartToolkit, so it's no biggie if it's something that can't be fixed.
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
My faves is working but no i have the same issue with the recent folder and start programs windows.

Any ideas?? Although when it refreshes, it goes to recent programs and back to home screen. It might be there, where the problem is??
[HTC Excalibur] AbsoluteDesignz:
simple solution...smart toolkit
[HTC Excalibur] Technology:
The Weather App The Perfect Storm

Mickey, I wish I could tell you where the problem is, but I cannot. Again, I tried the latest new weather App and it was the perfect storm on my mobile device. I lost complete slides, no functionality with Start, All Programs, enough was enough, I had to reinstall everything. I have now officially gone back to MSNDirect weather, I have it in one of my 27 slides and I don't have to worry about it disappearing causing any problems, plus I don't have to wait one hour for a weather update, the weather update is instant at all times.:)
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
the point is not to keep installing programs to solve an issue. We, he, needs to figure out what is causing it.
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
send me the setup...let me check it out :D
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
Where did you get that from, can you post it up please.
[HTC Excalibur] axv91:
thank u very much for this.... it works well with the t-mobile shadow :D.... im eagerly waiting for the 5 day forecast =P... tnx again!!

off topic: i was just wondering wer do u guys get the digital clock font as such in mikey's... i've been looking everywhere and still no luck =(
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:

[HTC Excalibur] axv91:
tnx for the quick reply... im using a t-mobile shadow so i just needed the name of the font, found it in this

post

many tnx to u! =)
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Why dont you guys use the TestUI version ??? It's much better, if you have the start menu bug...
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
Hey organic do you seem to know why the screen goes white everytime I update the weather?
