chome config Errors.

Pls can somebody tell me why I recieve an error message saying "Error while loading from the registry" Invalid operationException. when i hit chome config to set my home screen. I will appreciate the immediate respond. Nice work from the developers tho.
[HTC Excalibur] zeke009:
It's nothing serious. I get at least 1 occurence of that when I load CHome. Before I upgraded my phone I used to get 3 errors. It's nothing serious, just the app looking for a panel that is not present I believe.
[HTC Excalibur] crimson9292:
Mate,

what rom are you using. Is it EVO or ???

-crim
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
I was hoping this thread would die one day.... lol
[HTC Excalibur] 3skimo:
Can anyone provide a step-by-step instruction how to get MiniWeather 1.2 work on i600 (with WM 6.5)? I tried following the threads from page 90 onwards, with Dermann's CHomeRefresh files, but I can't set it up correctly. Am I missing something else? Any help would be much appreciated.

That's what I thought too, but It doesn't make sense for the battery icon to be an X. I think the x is windows' generic for missing images or incorrect paths, because i saw the x before when I had an incorrect path for the small clock icon at the top left in the clock panel.

1.2 app, without other graphics (monitor, battery)

Darn it as I have the 'battery.png' that was uploaded, but even with Resco Explorer...I'm stuck at this next step..

No noobie gang...lol

P.S. Found this too:

Could someone please tell me what the value is supposed to be for this reg path:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome\Settings\Battery\PIC TURES

Hi Dermann!

Thanks for your email! And the link to your customized .cpr file for this great app! It's the same one that I have...lol

As for the 'red x'...I do not utilize Chrome Config, as I always get a error with my BJ II...

I thought that I could go into the device via USB cable and then navigate through my Resco Explorer to find this folder and then just 'drop' the battery icon in, but man no luck thus far...:(

Well my dam added value entered by moi was:

[HTC Excalibur] dermann:
it's the cpr, it need to be updated to the 6.5 change. if you up load the one your trying to use, and your old one. i'd be able to do it for ya...
[HTC Excalibur] andysteph10:
Hi NRG is there a weather cab you do for the UK or do these weather cabs you build only work in the US? Your reply would me much respected
[HTC Excalibur] pepso65:
forecast temperature in clock panel

Thanks for the nice weather application. Generally it's working good in my Samsung Valencia, just "today hi-low temperature" is not showing in clock panel. I have no idea how to fix it.
[HTC Excalibur] pepso65:
I found solution myself - Windows locale must be set to english.
[HTC Excalibur] LudoA12:
Works for me too
[HTC Excalibur] Knightofhearts:
weather.com

Anyone going to post here when weather.com is going to fix their 500 error? I think thats a feature I would like to turn back on.
[HTC Excalibur] outerdepth:
Just check out the ODSHOWeather panel for now, it has fixed the error. Use this if you want, until this app get's fixed. I am sure it won't be long for miniweather to fix this, but until then feel free to check out the other weather panel as an option.
[HTC Excalibur] 1oddmanout:
Way cool! I just installed the calibri font cab, and FINALLY can see all the letters :D (I'm getting old). Can't wait for the next improvements.
[HTC Excalibur] strongsteve:
NRG - I like your app the best. I do not care for the cluttered clock panel of ODSHOW. Plus, clock soft key has to be contacts.

I am lucky.. Q9c on Sprint does not get the 50% error.

You guys are all awesome. Thanks.
[HTC Excalibur] ewilley2008:
Have to agree with the above less clutter is better and I also havent and any 50% issues with the Q9C on sprint
[HTC Excalibur] AbsoluteDesignz:
my sentiments exactly...that other panel is wayy too cluttered.
[HTC Excalibur] coppertop24:
Great job NRG!

i totally agree. i like the clean, simple layout of miniWeather. Its nice to have current conditions on the clock panel without being too obtrusive. I also like that mini doesnt modify the layout of the default panels like Weather 3.X does. Now, not to get off subject here but .. since you seem to be pretty good with cHome and such, it there a way to make a multi-panel appointments slider that shows a panel for each of the next five days with the respective appointments? I was just thinking today and would like to see these without having to open my calender. Being able to access all of this information from the homescreen has rekindled my love with my Q9c. Not that i didnt like it before, but now its just plain sexy! :p
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Your "CloseConnection" command addition, doesn't mean it got "fixed". It was simple coincidence that weather.com or TMobile fixed the problem at the time you guys thought you found the solution. And please don't come in my thread "recommending" your software.... I don't. ODShowWeather is just a mod of my application anyway. The "cluttered" version of it, if you will....

Thank you.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Thanks, but that's not possible at the moment. :)
[HTC Excalibur] outerdepth:
No problem, dude!!!

Gotcha, I was just trying to help out a soul. I swear, man, it's cool.

Gotta say, you don't have to be so nasty, I am really trying here. That's all. Hope you have a good one. Later!!:cool:
[HTC Excalibur] djnutz:
mine gets stuck on 50% if I auto update, then I just turn off autoupdate and check for connection and manually update. sometimes i play around with turning those on and off more than once but it gets it working.
[HTC Excalibur] showaco:
Are you still getting the 50% error? I was just curious,
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Here's an update to miniweather. Also look at post #3 for a little gift for fans of miniweather ;)

p.s. You need this update for the cab in post #3 to work :)
[HTC Excalibur] commanderkeen:
Hi, nice work but when i try to update the weather, it show 10%...30% and then, there is an error message "cant write in HKLM/..."

Why the program can't write on my registry?

It is on spv c600 (tornado), WM6.1
[HTC Excalibur] AbsoluteDesignz:
i cant get it to show on my screen...what are the exact steps to get it to work

(i suspect its something as easy as "install cabs, reboot, enjoy" but its still not working for me so what might i be doing wrong?)
[HTC Excalibur] showaco:
Hey NRG, that monitor's awesome. Any chance of a non-miniweather version? Since I probably won"t be switching weather:D, but I would love to have a stand alone version to run.:)
[HTC Excalibur] strongsteve:
After doing the update, it keeps showing "no connection". However, if I select No for check for connection before updating, it works fine. What is wrong with that?
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
I'll consider it :)
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
I dont know know. For some reason it doesn't think you're connecting to "xml.yahoo.com". But if it works that way, just use it like that.. right ? :)
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Forgot to mention that after installation, you have to go weather options, layouts.. and switch to one of the monitor layouts :)
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Sorry I dont know. But post the whole erroe message please... word for word :)
[HTC Excalibur] 1oddmanout:
I could see the monitor by going into settings and selecting the monitor screen (and as usual, it then reboots). Monitor can be viewed on all panels other than clock.

One bug? The battery shows 10%, not 100%.

Edit: Did I forget to say "WAY COOL!", and thanks for giving us this?
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
It should definitely be %100 if it's... %100 !!! Try rebooting please.. and try again.
[HTC Excalibur] strongsteve:
Did you stretch out the update interval? I am now seeing next update in 73 or 72 minutes.. it was never that much before. I would like a 30 minute option as my weather here changes fast. Can this be done?
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
The update occurs about 10 minutes after the Yahoo servers update their information. Updating every 30 minutes, blindly, would be a waste.. as you would see the same information.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
You guys might want to redownload the cab for the monitor addon. I just discovered that by accident I compressed the cab file and it messed some of the battery PNGs, causing the battery not to display. Please redownload and reinstall.. Thanks :)
[HTC Excalibur] bloodbath:
When I try to reinstall the monitor cab, I get an error that says it is unable to run the .exe file like so (without the quotes):

"Cannot execute \program\files\nrg\chromeminiweather\monitor.exe"

I had no problem installing it previously. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
It was just a conicindence you got that error while installing.... it came up while you were installing and you didnt get to finish the installation. Just try again... that error will probably come up every minute as long as monitor is uninstalled. i will fix that asap..
[HTC Excalibur] bloodbath:
I tried installing again and got the error again. So I reset my phone and tried again. That did the trick. I should have known to reset first. Anyway, thanks again for your help.

By the way, this is a great addition to you already fabulous weather app.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Glad you like it, man. I love making things look good... eye candy. The WM interface definitely needs all the help it can get in that regard. It seems a lot of people download both miniweather and the monitor, but hardly anybody comments on them. I can it can only mean two things: either theres no problems with them and people just use them... or people dont like them and dont bother posting suggestions on how to improve them either. I hope its the latter.. heh.
[HTC Excalibur] Empel1960:
Hi again NRGZ,

As usual you kicked asses with this addon, I just found a very minor bug, before installing the update and the addon I was able to update via activesync with the option checking for internet connection on, after that I was not longer able to update until I turn off checking connection, other than that is awesome, thanks again for your efforts......:)
[HTC Excalibur] germansak:
Hi NRG. Been kinda busy so I didn't have time to install battery meter and/or give you feedback. It looks really sweet and tonight or tomorrow I'll give it a try. And when it comes to mini weather I can't say anything because I'm sooo happy. I've been using it for weeks now and it works really well. No bugs or suggestions to report since for me it's a final. Your work is awesome and I can't wait to see what's the next addition you come up with.

Cheers and congratulations on an excellent work.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
There will be improvements for sure. I'm working on new "glossy" layouts.. I will release them as "addons" to miniweather, so as not to clog up the main app, like I did with Chome Weather 3.0 :)
[HTC Excalibur] 1oddmanout:
DOH!! Rebooted and works fine. To mirror most of the comments on this thread, every once in a while a program comes along that makes a device perform to its full potential; this is one of them (and yet, you still find ways to get even closer to perfection!). Thanks again.
[HTC Excalibur] bloodbath:
I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or not, but the battery monitor doesn't seem to update for me. It read 100% for quite awhile (several hours) and did not reset until I restarted my phone. After the reboot it read 80%. The manual "Update monitor" didn't seem to work either. I was just wondering if there is a glitch or if I'm a moron (the more likely of the two choices). Thanks.

By the way, I like your thought of making add-ons versus a completely inclusive program. By making Miniweather it's on program, users like myself can customize our phones with only the add-ons we like. This saves space on the phone and allows a user to run a bare bones system if he/she likes.

Hope you don't mind my two cents. Anyway, keep up the great work.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
I've notice the monitor has problems updating in the microsoft provided emulator, for WM 6.1. So with that said.... I'm almost willing to bet you didn't install this on an Excalibur, did ya ? If so.. what did you install it on ?

I like getting feedback, so definitely say what's on your mind. It's the only way to improve on this...
[HTC Excalibur] TorAll:
Good work!

Small size and no bugs, thank you NRGZ28!
[HTC Excalibur] bloodbath:
I have a T-Mobile Dash. I'm using Rickywatt/Kavana's WM 6.1 ROM. I thought this was the same as the Excalibar, just a T-Mobile version. If I'm incorrect, please let me know.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Hmmm... I have a Tmobile Dash as well. It's an Excalibur. Anyway, I dont see why it wouldnt update, unless you're not seeing the updates ? Remember that in order for the status graphics to update, you have to open up some type of application that will take up the whole screen and cover up the homescreen. I usually just push the green key to bring up the phone app, then push the Home key to get back to the screen, scroll down to the monitor and I see the monitor get updated..
[HTC Excalibur] moalesipufos:
Salut!A postat un user pe aria Tornado despre aceasta aplicatie si spunea ca ar merge si pe aceasta platforma,ceea ce din pacate nu s-a intamplat.Ai putea face ceva in acest sens?Pe WM6 Platinum nu se instaleaza din cauza "insuficient permissions",iar pe WM6.1 Pro se instaleaza dar nu il gasesc nicaieri... Request for the Tornado platform.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Salut... Ai putea incerca sa run "sdaunlock". daca asta nu merge, voi face si o versiune care sa mearga pe Tornado... Vox... si alte versiuni. Poate azi... poate maine. Dar pe Pro nu o sa-ti mearga niciodata, pentru applicatia asta merge cu homescreenul del la 6.1 standard is atat. Pro e cu totul diferit din punctul asta de vedere.
[HTC Excalibur] moalesipufos:
Telefonul este decertificat(cu metoda celor de la imei-check.co.uk),deci nu aici este problema.Sa inteleg ca aplicatia nu merge pe ppc,pt.ca rom-ul WM Pro transforma SPV C600 intr-un semi ppc! :)
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Cei de la IMEI check nu au nici o treaba cu "security policies" din registry. Aia doar iti unlock telefonul. Eu vorbesc de sistemu de operare propriuzis. SOO, incearca te rog SDA_Unlock ( google it) si incerca sa instalazei din nou. Este imposibil ca aplicatia sa mearga pe Pro, pentru ca Pro nu are homescreenul lui standard.. nu ? E destul de obvious cand te uiti la ele.
[HTC Excalibur] bloodbath:
Some advice for those who may want to remove the Monitor add-on, remember to switch to a different layout (non-monitor layout) prior to removal. If you don't, you will be unable to enter the MiniWeather settings. This was true for me at least. I had to reinstall the Monitor add-on in order to enter the weather settings.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Yeah, unfortunately uninstalling the monitor will also delete setoptions.mscr.. I will remove it from the addon cab, since now it's already in the main cab of miniweather. It wasn't initially, which is why I did that. I never planned for people to uninstall the monitor.. it's such a cool addon :D
[HTC Excalibur] moalesipufos:
Imi pare rau ca trebuie sa te contrazic,am apelat la cei de la imei tocmai din cauza unui program gen "sda unlock",care mi-a stricat telefonul si cu ajutorul aplicatiei lor am reusit sa-l repar(nu le fac reclama,m-a costat 29 euro aplicatia,ideea era ca programul lor face mult m.m.lucruri decat "unlock").Apoi,WM6 Platinum vine gata decertificat...Pe WM6 Pro am instalat m.m.programe de genul celui facut de tine si care merg sau au mers f.bine: Fizzweather,Weather Panel...
[HTC Excalibur] johnnylavah:
is there a way to remove this notification without resetting my phone?
[HTC Excalibur] johnnylavah:
i used sktools to empty the notification queue
[HTC Excalibur] bloodbath:
NRG, not sure what I did when I reinstalled monitor the first time, but a second reinstall seems to have fixed the problem I had (it was not updating). Before I installed it this time, I used the clean function of sktools. I don't know if this did the trick, but I don't know what else to attribute it to. Anyway, I really like this add-on so I'm glad it's working again.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
SDA_Unlock nu face nimic altceva decat iti schimba niste chei in registry. Nimic care nu poate fi resolvat cu un hard reset, in cazul in care iti "strica" telefonul. WM6 Platinum si ORICE alt ROM 6.1 este bazat pe emulatorul scos de MS, care este locked down foarte bine asa cum vine de la ei. Depinde de fiecare ROM builder de ce fel de policies modifica. Noi am avut noroc cu Kavana ca a deschis TOT. Voi se pare ca nu aveti acelasi noroc. Deaceea iti recomand sa folosesti SDA_Unlock.

In final, nu m-am nascut ieri... si am o experienta destul de vasta cand vine vorba de smartphones sau si PPCs (care am avut o gramada). Cred ca sunt printre putinii oameni care au idee cum merge 6.1, poate si de aceasi sunt singurul care a facut o aplicatie pentru homescreenul nou.

In final,daca tot crezi ca nu am dreptate... tot ce poti sa zic e, nu install miniweather si gata. Nu are nimeni pusca la spate tau :) have a nice day...
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Well the thing is, I think I forgot to mention this, when you first install the monitor addon, you have to run it manually the first time (do this by going down to the settings slide, > battery and push "Update Monitor". Only after you do that it will start updating by itself every minute :) It will also update at poweron as well.. but you still HAVE to hit "Update monitor" after you install it to get it "kickstarted" :D It's not the most elegant solution, but it's not that bad IMO.
[HTC Excalibur] llmmjj:
this rom is great~~
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
But... it's not.. a... ROM....:cool:
[HTC Excalibur] jhoff80:
So, I've been using a lighter version of the built-in background that comes with this app for my homescreen. Because of this, the dark background on the 5-day forecast screen didn't really fit in all that well. To fix this, I inverted all the colors of NRG's icons. If anyone's interested, here's the black versions of the digits and the background. Credit for this really all belongs to NRG, all I did was click a button a few times to invert the colors.

If you'd rather I didn't share this, let me know and I can take it down. All you have to do is replace the resources folder that the application installs with the folder in this archive.
[HTC Excalibur] kron2:
Great job NRG. Works great.just when I think it can't get batter awesome looks.
[HTC Excalibur] kyniemxotxa98:
My LCD display doesn't work, it worked at first, then i try some diff layout i think, right now it no longer shows up, and it's set to "Y" in advanced options. also, the monitor addons doesn't work, i was never able to get this working. i try to uninstall everiything and start over clean, but it say something like "cannot uninstall everything, do you want to remove it from the list". so i ended up reinstalling it, and still doens't work..

as for the big font issue changing from Nina to Segoe, i do not see the difference either, tried to copy the attached .cpr file, still failures.

thanks for any suggestions.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Glad you like it man :) That reminds me... gotta provide some portrait CPRs for the monitor layout...
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Sorry dude... just start over. Sounds like you're beyond help at this point.
[HTC Excalibur] kyniemxotxa98:
how to start over if i can't uninstall everything?

prior to installing this mini version, i did play around with the weather 3.1, but i've uninstall it, i dont know if that would affect anything.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Wow.. that's actually pretty good looking. I might even use it for a while.. it's definitely a clean look. Thanks for taking the time to share your mods ;)
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Hard reset your phone.. OR go in \program files\nrg\ and delete EVERYTHING in there. Then, reinstall if you feel like it.
[HTC Excalibur] jhoff80:
I figured it was the least I could do to share it back for a great program like this.

Not to bring this too much off topic but I did actually make a whole theme like this using that gray background and images from icon-archive.com... I just don't know if the files would match up perfectly with those on the Excalibur so I didn't post it here. They seem to only work for the Sprint q9c so I didn't share it here, but if you're okay with figuring out which files need to be changed in the Windows directory instead of what I named them, the whole thing is here: http://www.mediafire.com/?5hcqemvi2mr

Anyway, to get back on topic, I tried out a couple of weather apps in 6.0 (Fizz, PocketWeather) and some other one for 6.1's Sliding Panels that I can't remember the name of but I believe the developer was possibly Chinese, and this is the best by far. It's now 100% stable and has been for a couple versions on my q9c, and I suggest everyone who hasn't already should give it a try.
[HTC Excalibur] moalesipufos:
Imi place aplicatia ta asa ca am instalat vers.Platinum,am cautat si descarcat sda-unlock si...tot nu merge!Ai idee de ce?In rest ,nu vreau sa intru in polemica,am si eu ceva experienta,plus ca avem un forum bun pe mobilewave.ro.P.S.:Aplicatia celor de la imei(romani de-ai nostrii stabiliti la Londra)face acelasi lucru printre altele cu sda-unlock si pana in acest moment nu am avut probleme de genul asta.Probabil trebuie sa mai lucrezi la copatibilitatea cu platforma Tornado.Sunt dispus sa fiu "cobai"! :D
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Daca ai messenger (yahoo) da-mi un mesaj si iti trimit o versiune care merge sigur... dar mai niste chestii de instalat manual dupa aia. Oricum, da-mi un mesaj si vedem.. "ediz28".
[HTC Excalibur] satru:
Hi NRG, i installed your weather program and all are working perfect, it is the best version.

a little thing, can you change the icon of option link and update link in start-all program? it will change the luck to these icons.

thanks excelent job
