DUDE U SOOOO ROCK!! Weather tab works great. Was able to add Ketchikan. Weather on home screen even appears and its accurate within 2 degrees. I know all i have to do is look outside to see the weather, but the forcast is nice to have and the weather animation is fun to watch. Just an over grown kid i guess. Thankyou for ur time and efforts. I do have another question though if u dont mind. This might be a rom issue, but just wanna pick ur brain if i may. When i turn off my phone and even when i just turn off my screen location changes back to "my location" so i have to go back in and reselect Ketchikan in location settings. Also clock and time settings resets back to dublin. Again may just be rom issue since it is a cooked rom. Help? Anyway thanks again and i definately will be donating within acouple days.

You are right the file on my device is Weather_City_Editor_Manila_2.1_2.5_v1.1.exe

But i downloaded the cab from the first post today and installed it.Strange.I reinstalled and works like a charm.Thank you for the support and for this great app.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
Which ROM do you use?

Is it Touch FLO 3D version 2.1 or HTC Sense 2.5?

(You can tell by looking at the home screen. If there is weather on the Home screen, then you have HTC Sense 2.5)

I'm currently using a 2.1 ROM. The city I select on the weater tab remains selected on the weather tab.

I'm guessing that you are using a 2.5 ROM with weather on the home screen switching to My Location.

Is there a city in Alaska named Dublin, or is it switching to Dublin in Ireland? And are you currently near eaither Dublin?

Maybe someone reading this can help with keeping the home page weather on a selected city. Only thing is that most people don't do much reading in this thread once they get it working.

I think there is a way to disable My Location.

I'll be using this ROM until at least Christmas. It's the Manila 2.1 Energy ROM with a Christmas theme.

I think this will probably fix it:

You may also want to look at your world clock page. If Dublin is in there, make sure it is not selected. Select Ketchican. You can also remove cities from the World Clock Page, which will not remove them from the weather page.

When ever you add a city from the weath page, it adds it to the world clock page.

GREAT !! Works perfect, tried 3 different apps, this one was the first that really did the job :D Thanks :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TRB01:
Was messing around with the older weather apps for hours before I came across one of your posts. Installed it on my Verizon Touch Pro 2 and worked perfectly. I can't thank you enough for your effort.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] aksilvershadow:

Not sure its a prob, but

Hi JVH3,

Great app, only small problem which might be down to using a HTC Touch HD.

when trying to edit the "AccWeatherCode" line I am having to type "blind" as the keyboard is in the way.

I can drop the keyboard to check the typing but it does get messy. (am not the best typer in the world).

Still, app so much easyer than others ive tried.. will donate soon as i can test its on updating.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
Thank you very much. That was a very generous donation. Very much appreciated.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
It'a accually the case with probably any device. With my Fuze, I have the same issue. I'm looking at different solutions for that.

Thinking about adding landscape support for devices with keyboards. That doesn't solve it for the HD, Diamond, Or any other device without a keyboard.

So, I am thinking of handling the click event in portrait to move the control to the top if there is an on screen keyboard. As a fast solution, I might just see if I can make the display area larger than the screen and add a scroll bar.

Most of my real world programming experience is in business logic and database. Less with the user interface.

The issue with not being able to see what your typing is something I do want to fix with the next release.

I'm sure you and most others have figured out to close the on screen keyboard to see what you have typed. Then open it, and type more. Close it to verify it. Then click the add button. It's a little hokey to need to do that, but it works.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] aksilvershadow:
Happy Customer

Hey least i can do. Im VERY happy with the program and the customer service is excellent. Im sure it takes alote of time and patience to make a cab like that.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dragonmaster0430:
Does anyone know how to get my original manila file back? I tried using another program to edit the weather, and the instructions didn't tell me to back it up and now my phone is acting up and giving me "manila.exe error" and "service.exe error" please help, I just got the tilt 2 last thrusday and i alrdy ****ed it up! :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
On your phone, in your windows folder, there is a file named 2330fc3c_manila.

Use a program, such as Total Commander to delete this file.

Since this file is also included with the ROM, it will restore the original file.

Files that are part of the ROM can never be deleted.

When you change one, the original version is just hidden.

Deleting the copy restores the original.

You might need to shut down TouchFLO 3D or HTC Sense before it will let you delete the file.

To do this, Start->Settings->Home, the go to the Items page and make sure nothing is checked.

I think I have posted in the threads for all the other programs that those other programs should not be used for the Touch Pro 2. Did I miss one? If so, can you send me a link to the thread so I can make a post there.

As far as I know, the program that I have written is the only one that works properly for anything using Manila 2.1 or higher.

You can find the manila version by going to Start->Settings->System->Device Info

Then look at Software Version.

You will also need to restart TouchFLO 3D or HTC Sense when done.

Pretty much the same process as disabling, except check the box.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dragonmaster0430:
Thank you for your help!...but it tells my the file can not be deleted... :confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
Well, since you have only had it 2 days, you could do a hard reset. Then it will be how it was just like when you bought it.

I am rushing to get out the door right now.

I'll check back later tonight.

Explorer will not let you delete it.

Did you use Total Commander?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dragonmaster0430:
Yes I used Total *commander

Adding EUR/JE/JE---/JERSEY to HD2

Hi JVH3,

I've copied your CAB file, and the shortcut appears in HDS2 but...

I get an error message on start-up :

An unexpected error has occurred in Weather-City-Editor-Manila-2.1-2.5.exe.

This application requires a newer version of the Microsoft(R).NET Compact Framework than the version installed on this device ???

Have I stored the file in an appropriate place ?

Love the HD2 but this is driving me loco !

OS Version 5.2.21869 ( 21869.5.0.820

ROM Version 1.48.405.2(71294)WWE

Any guidance to a frustrated non-techie would be most appreciated !

Regards
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
You probably need to install version 3.5 of the Dot Net Compact Framework.

By default that is what Visual Studio 2008 professional is setup to require.

It's available somewhere on the site for free.

On my Fuze, I use a custom ROM, which includes it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
I have just verified that I can not delete it unless I first shut down. TouchFLO 3D.

I'm 90% sure the Tilt 2 is TouchFLO 3D and not HTC Sense.

Make sure to close all running programs.

Might just be better to soft reset to make sure.

If you don't know how to soft reset, just turn it off and then back on.

Then be sure to disable TouchFLO 3D.

TouchFLO 3D opens the file and keeps it in use.

Now use Total Commander and delete the file.

----

If after doing it that way, it still does not work, check the date/time of the file compared with the other manila files. If it is the same date and time as the other manila files, then you already have this file restored.

In that case, restart your phone. Verify the problem is still present.

If so, it might be something else that is causing the problem.

There are a couple options:

Hard Reset. It will be just like it was when you bought the phone.

Flash a custom ROM. It will have a bunch more cool and useful stuff without all the AT&T trial programs. The phone will not be returnable, unless you flash the stock ROM back.

If you have never flashed a ROM, you might just want to just hard reset for now, if the file turns out to be the same date and time as the other manila files.

Does the Tilt 2 come with Sprite Backup?

If it does, and you do decide to Hard Reset, use Sprite Backup before installing anything.

Then, if you have problems with your phone after the install, you can restroe and your phone will be just like it was before you installed anything.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
I have the blind keyboard issue basically worked out and coded. Within the next week, I should be providing an updated version.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dragonmaster0430:
Yes the tilt 2 has touchflo 3D, and I turned it off, but i still couldn't delete ( maybe just a error on my part cause I did this before i read your replies)

So I hard reset it, backed up the manila file installed your weather program set my town then "soft reset" it, and it seemed to be good until I i tried to send a txt then i kept getting a "tmail.exe' error" so then I uninstalled your program and soft reset it twice and now it seems fine now, should i check or do anything? Thanks for your help! and no ive never flashed a ROM b4
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
The program doesn't do anything related to tmail.

It is an executable than manipulates a sqlite database inside 1 manila files.

It changes the registry to identify a different URL to get weather info. Without this, it hits a URL that won't support custom cities.

It does not use or change any DLLs supplied by HTC.

When you exited the weather program, did you use the right soft button Menu and then select Exit?

Or did you click the X to close it?

And then manually restart TouchFLO 3D?

If you used the X to close it, then the program would actually still be running minimized.

After installing the program did you soft reset of restart the device?

I'm thinking that the soft resets were more of what cured the problem than uninstalling the program. There's just nothing supplied with the program that could do anything.

I know there are users that are using this with a Tilt 2 or at the very least a Touch Pro 2. Maybe one of them can help.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
Getting much closer to release.

Logic modified on start up to disable Touch FLO or Sense, but only if enabled.

When using the SIP, it now moves things up based on Visable Area.

Before I release, I am going to make sure the edit field that has focus is visible when the SIP is displayed.

I had kind of forgotten that the normal keyboard does work and there is a scroll bar.

At some point I might make a landscape layout that displays all without the need for scroll bars, but that might be in another version.

Discovered that some ROMs have registry entries in the Today Plugins for both Sense and TouchFLO, so I can't rely on that to determine what to start on Exit.

Tired and calling quits for the nights.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dragonmaster0430:
hmm well thats good to know once i got ride of the program the new days of my new weather town stopped downloading..so ima have to reinstall it..

I used the X then i went to the upper right corner and X-ed out of it, I ya i soft reset it after i installed the program
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
New Version Posted

I have uploaded a new version to the first post.

The new version fixes the issue with the SIP.

It backs up and restores the current city list for the weather tab.

Splash screen added for more immediate feedback that the program is launched.

Stops and Starts HTC Sense and TouchFLO 3D.

Uninstall the previous version before installing the new version.

The directory it installs to is now different and it looks cleaner in the remove programs.

Please give feedback on any issues. I am leaving the 11/1/2009 version up until I get enough feedback on this version.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dragonmaster0430:
Hey guys is there any tilt 2 users out there having issues besides me? My phone is rlly slow now and keeps freezing on txts, locking up on the net and downloading all my emails everynight
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
To exit the program, you should NOT use the X in the upper right corner.

You should use the right soft menu, then select Exit.

If you had the TouchFLO 3D interface running after clicking the X in the upper right, then TouchFLO 3D didn't actually shut down when the program started.

And I'm not sure with the Tilt 2 if clicking the X actually shuts down programs, or leaves them running minimized. In any case, if the X is clicked there is no code run to restart TouchFLO3D.

Something you could try.

Manually shut down TouchFLO3D.

Run the program.

Make your changes.

Exit the program by using the right soft menu and then pick the option Exit.

Manually restart TouchFLO3D

Then for good measure restart your phone. (You shouldn't need to do this step, but after fighting a problem for a while, a little overkill is sometimes all it needs.

----

Did you restore text messages into your phone from a previous phone?

How many emails are on your phone?

There are reports through out the forum that large amounts of text messages slow things down. Some people were complaining of speed, but most of these complaint were from users with over 1000 text messages.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dragonmaster0430:
I tried the right soft Key it did nothing for me on the tilt 2

No i didnt restore any of my text I only have 50 or so

I have my email set up to retrieve only the emails of "today" which it does but at least twice a day it download all 9000 emails from my inbox...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
The right soft menu did nothing???

Usually it launches a list of things to pick from.

And the last item in the list is Exit.

And when this is selected the program restarts TouchFLO 3D and then ends.

Unless your saying that selecting Exit did nothing. That would still be surprising if it did nothing. The C# code to end a program is pretty simple.

TFL3D.EnableTF3D();

this.Close();

I built the TFL3D class based on code from Joe Wilcox.

It now also handles Sense.

But, even more surprising is that you say TouchFLO 3D is running when you exit using the X.

If you exit using the X, it does not run that code, so there is no call to EnableTF3D.

Which means that TouchFLO 3D was not shut down.

Hope someone can help, because I am at a loss.

hi

as a mistake I used an older version to run with htc sense, but now after I deleted 2330fc3c_manila it still gives me the error "no such table: TimeZones"

before deleting 2330fc3c_manila I was given a similar error - do I have to delete another file?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
Sounds like you installed to the storage card. You need to uninstall and the install it to the device.

The code looks for the database file that contains the table TimeZones in the Windows folder. If you install to the storage card that file exist at \Storage Card\Windows instead of just \Windows

I created this file because no such table existed and the table to identify the timezone that is in 2330fc3x_manila just contains a number.

So, just uninstall using Start->Settings->System->Remove Programs

Then install to the device.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tehxeno:
I'm slightly confused about installation and use...

After I install it once and edit the database, can I back up the manila file and use it to replace on newer flashes?

Or do I have to edit the database every flash?

If I CAN back up stuff... could you give me the process on how to do that?

Also a question, but one that doesn't really need to be answered: why can't I use sashimi to install?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
To Backup:

Right Soft Menu - Menu, then select Backup, Then select either My Documents or Storage Card.

To Restore:

Right Soft Menu - Menu, then select Restore, Then select either My Documents or Storage Card.

Obviously, if you backup to My Documents, you will need to copy it to your computer or storage card before flashing a new ROM.

Depending on the manila version on the ROMs you flash, backup and restore may or may not work.

Sense 2.5 is a different database format than TouchFLO 3D 2.1

So, if you do a backup from a TouchFLO 3D 2.1 ROM, you should not restore from that backup after flashing a Sense 2.5 ROM.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
Nevermind

I had experienced an issue where HTC Sense 2.1 did not shut down and the app crashed.

Today it is working. I am not quite sure what changed.

I am thinking it may have been not resetting after installing.

The program itself does not require a reset, but I had installed others at the same time.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bsSkunkApe:
Editor Crashing

I just flashed the Energy rom 28011 dec 24th and I just downloaded and tried your weather editor 3.0 and I'm having crashing problems like you are talking about. Tried every combo I could think of reinstalling, reflashing, manually disabling sense, etc... Attached the error messages for you. Dunno if that will help.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
I did see that the first time I ran it.

Then I manually disabled sense.

Ran it.

Restarted Sense.

I installed some unrelated software, like in call screen tweek.

Then somewhere in there, I soft reset.

The next time I ran it, it worked perfectly.

Can you check to see if both these registry entries exist for you:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\HTC Sense

Enabled=1

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\TouchFLO 3D

Enabled=0

I am wondering if something I installed adds the TouchFLO 3D item.

Both exist on my phone, but I would have only expected the HTC Sense one to exist.

I can fix it with a simple try catch, so I will update the app, even though it is working for me.

As a fix, you can add the extra item if it does not exist.

[EDIT]

I figured out what fixed it for me.

I ran the installed version for Program Tab Toolbox.

This wasn't updated for sense, so it created the TouchFLO 3D registry entry.

I will be posting an update to this app and that app.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
Version 3.1 posted to correct bug reported.

Just posted version 3.1.

I reproduced the bug and tested to ensure 3.1 fixes it.

A seperate program had created a registry entry which is why I had only saw the problem once.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bsSkunkApe:
Thanks for the quick fix! Downloaded and works great! I'll send a donation your way when I get a chance next week.

Hi,

A "little" problem for me :

On a HTC HD, official HTC ROM (the last version) & WM6.1 : it doesn't work

I installed "WCE" V3.1 (not on the SD card, as mentionned). When I open WCE (after closing TF3D, the key registry is "0"), as I select a country (any), it gives me an error. See following screens

http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=205&u=10059266

http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=206&u=10059266

Do you have an idea on what happends ?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JVH3:
Is the language of the ROM English (HTC HD is released in multiple countries and afaik in multiple languages)?

Please upload your file: 2330fc3c_manila from your windows folder?

Have you installed the dot net compact framework version 3.5?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jujulianos:
My ROM is a "french" one (taken on the french version of the HTC site) ; exact ref. is 1.56.406.1 (43972) FRE.

it seems NetCF is bad installed.

So I tried to reinstall it but is says me "not enough memory".

I don't understand because it's only 6 Mo & I have more than 120 Mo. Same thing if I try to install it on the SD Card (I have more than 1 Go free !).

About 2330fc3c_manila : there are the french cities I can see on the weather panel choice ; do you mean I can change the file by adding some cities with their specific codes ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jujulianos:
After a hard reset : I could install .NetCF... but I have alway the same problem (same error screens)

Hello,

i´m running the german WM6.5 on a VarioV. I tried to use the new cab 3.1.

But i got the same results like user "bsSkunkApe".

First i started the new weather editor 3.1. I saw the splash screen and waited for around 4 minutes - but nothing happened. So i manually tried to disable HTC Sense - but i saw it was already unchecked - but suddenly the Weather Editor poped up. But when i tried to set "Add city" i received the same result like "bsSkunkApe".

Even i closed Weather Editor and ran it with disabled HTC Sense i recieved the same messages. But at least the software opens at once now.

I hope so much there´s a solution to use WeatherCityEditor in a more "easy" way.

PS: I checked the registry - both entries were set to "0" (after i ran WeatherCityExplorer 3.1 the first time).

Yours

I have noticed the long delay in starting.

I have also noticed that it seems related to running other programs.

It always works well for me after a soft reset.

It pretty consistently quickly shuts downs Sense or TFL3D when no other programs are running.

It should launch quickly if TFL3D or Sense is not running, since it no longer sends the message to Windows to shut down them down.

3.1 should not have any crash when starting. Version 3.0 from the day before did. 3.0 had no exception handling around the code to change the registy to disable Sense or TFL3D. 3.1 does.

Hoping to figure out how to make it shut TFL3D and Sense faster.

I probably won't get back to this until after the new year though.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] WeT-Klb:
Hi JVH3,

you are right, when i shut down HTC Sense manually the Weather City Editor starts pretty fast. Only i get that messages when i tried to add a city.

I also did a soft reset without any changes. And for sure i´m running release 3.1 of WCE.

Is it possible the error comes because before i already used release 2.5 (i think) and already changed the manila-fila?

I checked again with 3.1 - the error reports are different to "bsSkunkApe" - but still it don´t work.

BTW - even in german WM6.5 the windows-folder is named "windows". So this shouldn´t be the problem.

In case we don´t meet before i wish a happy new year. Please keep going on - you really do great.
