It will automatically restart Sense if you use the left soft button labeled Exit.

If you just use the X, then it will not.

As far as deleting, there is not an option to delete all the cities.

The whole database is less than 1 MB.

And it is indexed, so queries are fast.

Is there a strong reason to delete all of them.

You can delete individual cities, edit individual cities, copy cities, and create cities.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
Wow!!!

Thank you very much. That was huge.

Finally got around to cooking in ran fine closed and opened TF3D only thing and it's purely cosmetic the .lnk image seems to be cut off on right side and bottom "attached screeny"
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
I got the icon from the user iridium21.

He actually made 2 icons.

This one looked good with a black backround.

The other one had had an issue with the edge when the background is black.

You might want to try downloading the png files from the thread.

Then put them in a foldder and set the icon for the lnk by using

Create the registry directory

HKLM\Security\Shell\StarInfo\Start\WeatherCityEditor.exe.lnk

Then create the string key under it

icon=\path\filename.png

If that works, then it was my improting of them into Visual studio that was the issue.

If not, then the png needs the transparency set for the border.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] stylez:
Think is because there is a shadow on the .png's and on conversion you get the effect as the black one slightly frays over the edges, like i said only cosmetic, couldn't work out REG way so just inserted to .dll etc.

Looks fine :)

Yes, CF 3.5 is installed by default on duttys rom, I was trying to say that :p

What just fell into my mind was that I use non-WWE rom. It's german, with german manilla.

Outweighing experiences from others, I am quite positive that this must be the problem.

Next time, I do rom flash, I will paste the error. Currently I have no time, sry.

Thanks for your app!!

Manila Crashed?

Okay, so I have a stock Tmobile rom from Wednesday's launch and When I installed 3.5 and tried to add a city the program hung and ever since Sence will not start, even after a reset?

I deleted 2330fc3c_manila and restarted but still Sence will not run.

I just get a blank home screen..

any ideas?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] brad1825:
Manila Crashed?

a little more digging, if I manually launch manila.exe Sence will load. But is doesn't load upon a restart... What would have changed that and how can I fix it. Should it go in a startup folder or autoexec.bat or what?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
If you exit the app by closing it with the X or through Task Manager, Sense will not restart.

Then you must re enable it.

Start -> Settings - Home

go to Items Tab

Then select HTC Sense

Then OK

To prevent the problem, use the left soft key of the app, labeled Exit.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] brad1825:
thanks, but this tmobile rom is locked down, and i dont have home under settings.

settings is mapped to sence settings and when sence isnt running it just has a few options
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] brad1825:
okay figured it out, in sence settings go to all settings from the softkey and then its under Today.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chris Cross:
This is true, except that in my case, I was not able to re-enable Sense. I tried and tried and even with the check mark to enable Sense, nothing happened. Soft-reset did not fix it. I ended up having to hard reset. But, I learned my lesson. Now, I make sure I do not close the program with the X, but instead I use the Exit button. :)

BTW - thanks so much for this app. It makes it very easy to add your own cities.

The format I used was:

NAM|US|"state abbreviation"|"city name, including spaces if needed"
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
I think you probably would have found that a soft reset prior to enabling it would have worked also.

I have not been able to reproduce a scenerio that I cannot restart Sense or even a scenerio where I need to soft reset.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tomX2:
i must be brain dead, after reading almost every post in this thread, i still cannot figure out how to make this program work. my weather app remains unchanged (no added locations to choose from).

is the entire database supposed to be added automatically (to locations) upon install? or can i choose individual cities to add to the weather app locations? and finally how do i get them to be recognized by the weather app?

my add location is grayed out whether i am online or not. i do not have a data plan. i update weather manually via wi-fi.

thanks

You use this to add cities.

The cities it displays are already on your phone.

Select a city.

Then use the right soft key - Menu

Then select Copy

Edit the fields to be the city you are wanting to add.

The AccuWeatherCode field needs to be adjusted to match.

Once the editting is complete, use the left soft key - Add

Now the new city will be in the list.

use the left soft Menu - Exit

Now TouchFLO 3D or HTC Sense will restart.

Now go to the weather page and add the city to the list of cities.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tomX2:
thanks for the help,

i figured out what was wrong. you can only have 12 cities in the 'weather'/'world time' app. if you have 12 cities then the '+add city' disappears and the 'add location' greys out.

Help - My Location weather problem

Hello,

I'm experiencing a problem with getting the name of a city for "My Location" Few days ago (4-5) it was working but something has changed and last 2 days I can see only "My Location" instead of the city name. But weather is updated correctly for all my custom cities and also "My Location". I made a hard reset, I tried both servers for getting the weather, but problem was not solved.

Any idea/solution for this, please?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
It's probably a cell tower problem. Information about the cell tower is used to get the city name for My Location.

My app does not modify the way the city for My Location is determined.

Not sure where to point you to for help, but it's not related to the app.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] danielo:
Hmm I'm not sure if this is cell tower problem, because when I make a request for getting weather with usage of conflipper server I get a response like:

<weather>

<location name="" country="" />

<localTime>4/7/2010 11:01:45 AM</localTime>

<current>

<temp c="10" f="50"/>

<condition icon="01">Sunny</condition>

</current>

<forecast>

<day number="1">

<name>Wed</name>

<date>4/7/2010</date>

<condition icon="04">Times of clouds and sun</condition>

<high c="14" f="58" />

<low c="7" f="44" />

<winddir direction="N">0</winddir>

<windspd kph="0" mph="9" mps="4" />

<uvi>3</uvi>

</day>

.........

.........

and as you can see there are missing information about the city and country.

Probably custom server problem, but it seems that also not2advanced has the same problem and stock server also. I also tried to flash back stock rom but still the same problem - no location name is displayed instead of "My Location" :-( but weather updates works.

I also tested location service with usage of cell towers only with Google maps and it was working without problem.

Is there any application which is capable of displaying cell tower data?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dermann:
just wanted to say thanks for this app, i was a little reluctant at first, cause NRGZ28 seems to be pumping roms out quicker than i can flash. i like seeing the city of my choosing, instead of just the capitals. thanks mate :D

Strange problems with updating weather info

Thank you!

I have strange problems with updating weather info, but I think they are server's side problems. Sometimes update works with no problem, sometimes I get problem with connection and I'm asked would I like to retry or not.

I'm not completly sure, but I switched at the moment to second server option.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Th3 Ripper:
Hi,

Just installed the NRG rom from 18th April. Using Cookie Sense 2.5

I have used your app to add my own location using the accuweather code however the weather doesn't update properly.

I have attached two screenshots to demonstrate what i'm seeing.

I have tried an existing city and it works fine.

Any ideas whats wrong?

Cheers.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
The 0, indicate that you probably entered the accuweather code.

Maybe I should add a test accuweather code to the app on the screen that you enter it.

You can try this URL: http://weather.not2advanced.com/htcweather/forecastdata.php?ac=XDADevs&locCode=NAM|US|MN|EAGAN&version=%201&device=innovation

I'll find it and edit this post.

Click the URL and replace NAM|US|MN|EAGAN with your Accu Weather Code.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Th3 Ripper:
Blimey one very fast response. Thank-you.

I have edited the URL and the result is http://weather.not2advanced.com/htc...UR|UK|136|Durham&version= 1&device=innovation

Still doesn't show accurate info. Any ideas?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:

I just did Verizon's MR1 upgrade to WM 6.5 and the weather city editor 3.5 works great! Thanks...

Now if I could get the flashing green indicator light to work like it used to I'll be all set! With the update, they grayed out the checkbox and options to change how long the light blinks for... Off to a new forum to find that fix lol.

Restoring the file without the Editor

For folks who flash all the time, I thought I'd just copy the 2 manila files into the windows folder via XDA_UC. The custom added cities show up, but if I add any of them to manila's weather, I get a connection error. I can remove the custom cities, and it works fine. I went ahead and installed JVH3 Weather editor 3.5 and deleted the custom cities I had added, then re-added them, closed, added these cities to the manila weather, and it downloaded fine.

I thought it would be nice to not have to bother with the program once I got all my personal cities added in, but I guess I have to keep installing it on each new flash.

NRG's ROMs Touch PRO2 CDMA
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
What 2 manila files are you copying. The tool only modifies 1 manila file.

There should only be 1 manila file: 2330fc3c_manila

The file 2330fc3c_manila.cityList is a comma delmited file of the AccuWeather codes that match the cities tha you have selected on the weather tab.

Make sure that you aren't using a 2330fc3c_manila from 2.1 with 2.5 or a 2.5 file with 2.1.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SouthernAtHeart:
Thanks, I thought there were 2 files the editor created when it made a backkup. Anyway, I'll know now how to fix the problem...

thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
Backup does create 2 files.

1 is a manila file.

The other is a file that is just to keep a list of all the selected cities. Restore uses this to modify the registry.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cmajewsk:
Not sure why. I even ran "Windows Explorer" in the "Run as..." the local admin of the box to make sure I had rights. Oh well, don't worry about it. I found a cab file to edit the weather database for this new version of Manila (2.1) that actually works - although you have to install it on your phone - it is as simple as pie. See post here.

I had some spare time today. The main portion of the dev is done to use a drop down list to populate the msid and offset for the timezone. Just need to do some unit testing first. Probably will be tonight or tomorrow when I post an update.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
I just finished uploading a minor update.

Added a drop down to pick the timezone and display the timezone for the selected row.

Not sure how valuable it is, since if you picked a city near the one you were adding, you would have the correct info, but I thought it still worth doing.

This will prevent the scenerio whare a user could enter an offset and msid that did not match. Not sure what, if anything, would happen.

I left the original fields on the form, but read only.

Hi, having issues adding a city. Says unable to write to read only database. I think i followed the correct install bits.

Removed TouchFlow3D from the TodayScreen to close Manila.

Copied TimeZones.db to the windows folder.

Ran the EXE from internal storage.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] diabolik:
yes works fine
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
I suspect the manila file is read only.

In the windows folder, the file 2330fc3c_manila needs to not have the read only flag set.

Also, make sure you add the registry entry found in this thread.

The Enegy ROM already has both of those things done.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
You need to copy the TimeZone.db file into the windows folder.

It might have crated a 0k file there when you ran it.

Just replace it with the one in the zip.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
Made a CAB to do the install

There is now a CAB file that does the install.

If you have already editted cities, backup the manila file first.

This also changes the registry to use the URL mentioned in this thread.

Also, disable TFL3D before installing.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
Noticed an issue.

There are few countries that this does not work for Venezuala is one of them. The reason is that the Venezuala time is not in the TimeZones database. I will be updating the TimeZones.db file.

I tested a lot of countries and ran into this when showing it to a co worker.

It looks like there are 7 time zones that are used by cities that are not in the timezone database. When I created the database, based off of the Windows registry, there were some timezones with very large values for index. I suspect these are the missing ones.

The countries that have the problem will not display the timezone when the city is viewed.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
Attached is a zipped up TimeZones.db file. It contains the correct info for the missing TimeZones. Unzip the file and put the TimeZones.db into the Windows Folder on your phone. I did not have time to go through and give them the proper names, so they are currently named after the country, which will make the app work for them.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joshzzz2001:
i have manila 2.5, TmoUS stock rom, installed the app and works great but i noticed that the settings in the weather tab is blank as you can see from the attachment. is this a known bug? anybody has this also?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
Did you install anything else?

I don't touch the settings page.

The app modifies 1 manila file that contains the database of cities.

If you had tried any of the other apps (that don't work properly for Sense 2.5), they might have change something.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joshzzz2001:
thanks for the info. i'll try to look for something else. i just thought that this may be due to your app as i noticed the issue after installing it.

now i remember when i used the hdwall and its patch for manila 2.5, it messed up my weather. maybe that's the one. the problem is i have already uninstalled it and now i have the weather settings blank :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] schamass:
Thank you for this little helper!

Confirmation Code: 5HL60356GA3250623

I needed three tries to add my City to the list - just because i didn't realize that the name of the city in the "Accu-Weather-Code field" has to be written in capital letters... when i did so, it suddenly worked fine.:o

Mabye you should place a hint for that little (dummy)issue...

Well, however... thanks again. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
Thanks for the donation.

Maybe the next version I put some text near it. (Use Caps)

Or if it is not in all caps, when submitted, to automatically convert it. It's one line of code to convert.

Have it be an option that is set by default, but can be disabled.

I've been hoping to find a way to get the accuweather code automatically based on Country, State, and City. For United States cities the code is pretty straight forward. NAM|US|ST|CITY

But for the rest of the world things are different

In Germany there is a city called Munchen (don't know how to type an umlat - no key on my keyboard for it).

In the United States, we call that same city in Germany, Munich.

And the accu weather code is EUR|DE|GM002|MUNCHEN withan umlat.

So Accu Weather uses the names as they are spelled the country they are in. But, how do I guess GM002. DE is for Deutchland, but is GM for Germany. That doesn't make sense. And what is 002 for.

In any case, I will add make it convert it to caps, unless disabled by a setting which will be kept in the registry. I'll probably provide a UI to adjust the setting too.

It would mean alot more if you said:

What ROM and device you are using

What country and carrier you used

posted your 2330fc3c_manila from the windows folder.

My guess is you are using an updated ROM for verizon.

Surprised that it did not create the country table.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] WeT-Klb:
Hello,

i`m not sure - but since few days i found out there´s no more "My location" shown under the "World clock". Under Manila Weather there is "My location" - it is able to find new locations and it can find weather data for it.

Only it seems to have trouble when, in my case, i am in Kulmbach and try to let it find the location.

So i decided to set "Berlin" for time and weather, deleted my cities, restored my old manila-file and uninstalled CWE 3.5.

But still i can´t get that thing to work. Do you have any ideas why there´s no more "My location" on the "worldtime" site like it appear on the "weather" site?

Yours

Hi!

I have a similar problem, installed this nice app and got the right codes for my location, added my location and then my problem started. I can't update My Location or the now deleted My Loacation so it just shows My Location and not Alvesta (a Place in Sweden) :) It updates sometime but most of the time it refuses to do so. My other place in the list is updated as it should...

And i did forget to backup my original weather city file. :(

What can i do besides hardreset to fix this problem?

See device specs in my sig!

Forgot to mention that when using WiFi it updates fine!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
The My Location feature is seperate from what this app does.

I have also noticed that near where I live, My Location has recently stopped consistently working. Everywhere else seems fine. It used to always work. Just he last week or 2 has it been a problem. Since I haven't made any updates to the program in months, I know it is not caused by my program.

Change weather server

anybody knows how to change the server from accuweather to weather chanel ? i have tried to change some custom url but no luck.

Thx.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
You would probably need to put up an intermediary website that would get it's data from the weather channel. The site needs to output xml in a very specific format. The weather channel does not output it the same.

There are links posted in this thread that will give you an example of what the output should be.

So, just throw some asp or aspx or php up on your webserver.

Have it get data from the weather channel and return XML as the response.
