WAW, great, thank you! That gives many clues on how to make the installation process easier :).

Before adding this to the installation procedure, I have few questions:

a. Are you aware of the 'IPTWeather Location' shortcut in the Start Menu? It is so much easier to use it to find your location code instead of browsing to http://www.accuweather.com/rss-center.asp...

b. For other settings, have you tried to use the 'IPTWeather Config' shortcut in the Start Menu? A lot more easier to configure paths in the weather.ini file.

Many thanks my xda friend!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
Sorry, it's "no" to both :o I was so glad to have it running I didn't check other options. I promise to do it ASAP and report :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
Great work! "a" is a good alternative and "b" too for more advanced config and both for changing things on the device when you are away from a Pc. These 2 options should be mentioned at the end. The noobs tutorial starts from the beginning when Active Sync with Pc is needed so everything is a mouse click away and easy to type. What do you think??

A few issues: as I used "a" for new city the 1st time, I get a message to add it to favorites, I click yes and yes to update. All is ok, then I select another location, same procedure but the name of the former city didn't change though the temps changed.

2nd issue is that pressing on the current temp doesn't return to the original icons and gives me a window with temp details. Any ideas other than installing IPT settings again?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
That's weird.

Could you please zip your weather.ini file and your icons.xml file from iPhoneToday and post them here?

Are you sure you have described all the steps to reproduce your issue?

No need to reinstall anything.

Also, based on your post, I've created with some reviews a noobs tutorial page on Google Code. Please check it and tell me if it seems ok to you.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
AFAIK these were the steps I described
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Could you please just redo the following step from your tutorial and check what happens after a press a the icon?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
I can't do this, my screen is stuck like in the 2nd picture above

Edit Sorry, I didn't understand. Ok, the result is funny: pressing the 1st icon updates correctly, pressing again updates a second favorite location
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Ok, it seems there is a bug in iPhoneToday.

Try to reset your device, it should unlock iPhoneToday.

But as I can see, you haven't added just one city but many cities in your favorites, so you haven't described all the steps exactly...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
Yes I added other cities but Tiberias remained unchanged.

Did you get the edit in prev post?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Ok, I just got your edit. Please, try not to edit your posts if I have already answered, otherwise, it will be very complicated.

Did you edit your favorite locations directly in the weather.ini file?

How did you add Tel Aviv as your favorite location? There is one issue here.

Then, I really don't get what you mean by updating correctly in "pressing the 1st icon updates correctly, pressing again updates a second favorite location".

You mean the icons or the data, or both? For current weather icons or forecast weather icons?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Have you perhaps set your icon to run the quickIPTWFavoriteLocationChange.mscr script??
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Also I can see you have deleted all S2U2 settings from you weather.ini file. I would not recommend that...

You're trying to go too fast tito12 ;).

That makes it quiet difficult to help you efficiently...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
Right, I won't do it again:)

Only the first time as I described in the tuto, then I used the location script to add more and remove others

I mean that before I used the location script, I did everything as I describe in the tuto and I got the result you see in the 1st screenshot. Then I pressed the weather icon and I got the 2nd screen. Pressing again the same icon brought back the 1st screen which is perfect. Now after using the location script the same operations just toggles between 2 cities.

Now I did setting again the weather icon and noticed that there was a command line that I didn't put in the params. I removed it and reset my device

See the result when I press the weather icon
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
No

I don't use S2U2 so I deleted, if you tell me not to I can start again with the original settings.ini
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Ok, I think you somehow updated the weather of a city, and together you changed the city...

You wanted to go too fast. IPTWeather is a MortScript, a very complicated one, so it is quiet slow...

Now, I think the only issue you have is that your original icons.xml file is now wrong.

So just click on the icon so you get your second picture.

Then, edit you icons in iPhoneToday so they are like in your first picture of your tutorial.

Now, press the weather icon once.

What happens?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Also, setting IPTWdelayHours to empty is not good. Please set IPTWdelayHours=0 if you wish.

This may explain a part of your issue.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
I think it is not mandatory, indeed, but first, let IPTWeather work on your device.

Then, try to delete the settings.

Anyway, please note that if you don't have S2U2 installed on your device, ITPWeather will automatically disable all features related to S2U2!

The same for iPhoneToday!

:D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
Ok first I put 0 for delay

2nd here's the result
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
I was under the impression the shorter the file, the faster it will run :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Ok, great!

So normally, you shouldn't have any automatic update because of your IPTWdelayHours=0 and IPTWdelayMinutes=0.

Now, if you click again the current weather icon, you should get back to the first picture of your screenshots.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Also, you should delete from your weather.ini file in the IPTWaccuWeatherFavoriteLocations the favorite you added as "TEL AVIV-YAFO, MEA|IL|IS005|TEL AVIV-YAFO;" because it is not the right way to add it. ;)

Please use the 'IPTWeather Location' script to manage your favorite locations.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
Ok Boss, I'll do these and then later I'll try to work again with the location script.

Now I have to go to my in laws for dinner:( See you later and thank you !:D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kongocui:
Who knows why the weather is not automatically updated in the specified time. I installed every 1h 30m upgrade. time passes and the date and the weather has not changed. I go to the scripts run IPTWeather manageIPTWLocation.mscr select your city and weather updates, and updated is the one that was supposed to be updated automatically. that is obtained updated weather as it should but in the prog (S2U2 v2.41) NOT HORSERADISH!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
@kongocui: first, thanks for the detailed description of your configuration... lol. Anyway, it seems you're using S2U2. I have also some issues with S2U2 which refrains IPTWeather from updating the weather at the scheduled time sometimes. It's like S2U2 blocks the windows time notifications. I have never understood why exactly, even by preventing S2U2 from turning the phone into sleep mode or power off. I have already contacted A_C once for that, but never got an reply on that subject. I know it is annoying, but you cannot do anything to that. I've noticed that usually, it doesn't update at the scheduled time if I have turned on my screen and S2U2 pops-up, but if you never see S2U2, then it works. Strange, weird, whatever you want, but I can do nothing about that, it is the way S2U2 works. Anyway, the weather gets always updated once you unlock your device (in iPhoneToday

and

S2U2).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
Hi Michoob

I've been playing with IPTW, uninstalled and started back from the beginning and my conclusion is :

first to change the city from location script and not directly from the settings.ini

2nd as you said the process takes some time and one must wait until it's completely done and that was the origin of my troubles.

I'd suggest if possible to have the "wait" sign on all scripts to prevent such problems
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
I'd like it too, but it's not working with the other scripts :(, perhaps because of the dialog boxes...

But I'll check if I can add some security to avoid people running the iPhoneToday.mscr script while the manageLocation.mscr script is running ;).

By the way, I'm glad it's working now for you :D.

Weather Backgrounds 800x480

Hi all,

Attached are 800x480 wallpapers I've created for using IPTWeather on my OmniaPro (resolution 800x480)

Works great with IPT and S2U2!

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dmagician:
Hello,

Question:

Is there any way of getting the app to use custom date format (to view over S2U2)

e.g. by configuration INI?

(or any way to contact the author of the app)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
It is currently not possible to change the date format.

Should I add an option to change the format of the date displayed in S2U2? I'll check to add that.

By the way, I am the author of IPTWeather, and this thread is the best way to contact me ;).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Thanks, but could you actually attach the wallpapers, please? :P

And with some screenshots, that would be great!

Thanks mate!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Revhead:
Sketchy_Glow_S2U2_Weather_Icons_v2 icons resized to suit QVGA/WQVGA screens.

I've update the first post with the preview and links below:

sv0911's Platinum Weather WVGA 480x800 or QWVGA 240x400:

Enjoy!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sv0911:
Hi my friend,

Without your support and help, there where no s2u2 fullscreen weather with the images on "Storage Card" or on "My Storage"...!!!!!!!!!!! :) :cool: :D

I have send you a pm for the requested walls....!!

Greetings

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Hi all xda friends!

I have a great news!

I've installed MortScript 4.3b15 yesterday, and IPTWeather is working like a charm, and faster than with MortScript 4.2.

So if you want, you can use MortScript 4.3b15.

Actually, I guess some of you are already running IPTWeather with MortScript 4.3b15 ;).

And don't forget, a small donation for my work is always welcomed :D.

Check my signature for the donation link.

hi man

thanks for the great work indeed but i have a bug

when I press on the iptweather icon on iphone today it takes me to "contacts" not to the weather tab!

is there any advice?

thanks in advance
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
@king roro: this is not a bug. Please read the "Next installation steps" on how to use IPTWeather in iPhoneToday. :rolleyes:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] king roro:
thanks mate for the help :)

... It works for me now the desktop icons and the s2u icons too but s2u wallpaper doesn't show the weather ... i did what said in the installation guide but the su2 got blank with black screen

is there any change I have to do in S2U program's setting? or is there recommended S2U version to install?

thanks in advance again
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Your weather pictures for the S2U2 wallpaper have to be in the same folder as IPTWS2U2WallpaperPath and must have the same file name extension as IPTWS2U2WallpaperExtension. Please run from the Start Menu the 'IPTWeather Config' shortcut to find these settings and change them easily.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] king roro:
dear Mr.michoob

thank you very much for your support

I recheck the bathes and did what u said exactly in ur post for the wallpaper bath and the extension

I used "S2U2wallpaper_20100421" for the S2U wallapaper and i set the IPTWS2U2WallpaperPath correctly and set the extension to "jpg" .

did a soft reset but nothing happened :(

wish i'm not bothering u with my posts and merci beaucoup

p.s:

Im running WM 6.5 build 23129 on Samsung I900 (Omnia I)

S2U version : S2U2-2.43
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Stupid question: what have you set for IPTWtodayForecastInS2U2Wallpaper?

Also, please note that you don't to soft-reset to test changes in your settings.

Just expand/collapse the weather forecast icons in iPhoneToday and it will reload all icons and wallpapers ;).

By the way, could you please check in the S2U2 settings what is set for the Wallpaper?

If you still don't manage to make it work, could you please zip your weather.ini file and post it here?

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] king roro:
first of all wanna thank u again and again for ur Patience and supporting

about the S2U2 Wallpaper's settings it's configured to the same folder for the "IPTWS2U2WallpaperPath "

but after I updated the weather forecast icons in iPhoneToday instead of restarting its working fine finally :))

now to go to my last problem :o:o :

icons are not collapsing when I click on the Icon in iPhoneToday ,the screen zooming out the WM 6.5 Busy logo appears after that the screen remains the same (with the weather Icons)

and i attached the weather.ini file in this post.

thanks again Mr.michoob ... very nice project.. keep walking :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Which version of iPhoneToday do you use? 1.5.4?

Which version of MortScript do you use? 4.2 or 4.3b15?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] king roro:
iPhoneToday 1.5.4

MortScript 4.2
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Ok, I get it. You have probably edited some of your icons or iPhoneToday settings while the weather forecast icons were displayed, thus resulting in saving the weather forecast icons into your icons.xml file.

I'm sorry for you, but you will have to reconfigure the icons that have been replaced by the weather forecast icons.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] king roro:
I will re-configure the icons....

thank you :)

sv0911's Platinum weather WVGA wallpapers

Hi my xda friends!

sv0911 has made a great work porting his platinum S2U2 UserWeather fullscreen icons to WVGA wallpapers usable in the S2U2 and/or iPhoneToday wallpaper.

Check it out!

You can download it from here.

You may wonder what's the difference between these wallpaper pictures and the icons.

Then, please note on the screenshot:

- today forecast weather in S2U2 wallpaper (IPTWtodayForecastInS2U2Wallpaper=1) with description in the slider text (IPTWtodayForecastInS2U2Text=1) in French (IPTWtranslationLanguageCode=fr)

- current weather in the bottom left corner (IPTWtomorrowForecastInS2U2UserWeather=-1) with current temp. (current realfeel temp.) | High temp. (High realfeel temp.) | Low temp. (Low realfeel temp.) | @ observation time (IPTWS2U2UserWeatherTextPattern=%CT%%NA% (%CRFT%)%NA% | %HT% (%HRFT%) / %LT% (%LRFT%) | @ %OBST%)

Enjoy!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Hi all, I've repacked sv0911's Platinum Weather Wallpapers Fullscreen WVGA, because there were some junk pictures, and because pictures 01 to 08 should be renamed to 1 to 8.

rdona subscription has expired

My dear xda friends, I guess you are reading this thread now because you got an error with your last weather update.

It is because the rdona subscription has expired.

It is the API to AccuWeather used by default in IPTWeather.

Fortunately, we have already a fix, and no new installation is needed. Just set IPTWaccuWeatherAPI=uport and it will work using the uport API instead of rdona. We'll see for how long, but there are so many of them before we run out of them... ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mrvearn:
ahhh..thats y my ipt just display n/a only..thanks michoob for the update.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] myso:
Hi michoob, I have a problem too...

Recently, the IPTEwather can't update the weather icons and backgrond wallpapers about one week ago....

What happens on that?

Thanks!

Myso
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
@myso: why people don't read but just ask?!? This is a forum, not a mailbox... please read the forum rules again. For your question, just read two posts before yours...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
To all, I got a last update using the uport API today in the afternoon, and now, it is not working anymore :(.

Please use one of the following values for IPTWaccuWeatherAPI and IPTWeather will update again :D:

samsu

ruan

synium

shgao

saray

I won't answer to the questions of users who can't read this post.

I hope these few APIs will last for some time, because I haven't found others, and because I'm working on a new release with some small changes and bug fixes (yes, I've found one bug, but very difficult to reproduce, so you have perhaps never encountered it ;)).

Cheers :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
New version IPTWeather WWI released!

My dear xda friends, a new release is available with some intersting improvements:

Enjoy!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
For 3 days forecast, you can use the greek API.

For 5 days forecast, you can use the ruan API.

For 7 days forecast, you can use the samsu API.

Just change the IPTWaccuWeatherAPI setting in the weather.ini file to make your choice ;).

An error message???

Hi there...

Does anyone know what doees that error message "Missing name for out value" came out on the screen after updating the weather information with IPTwearther and S2U2 applications mean? There is no weather wallpaper appearing on the locked screen just a black wallpaper if the error happens.

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
@myso: this is an error from the xml parser if some information is missing in the downloaded weather data. What have you set for IPTWaccuWeatherAPI?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] myso:
Well, I am using "smartlogixinc" or "yahoo1" as the API....

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Ok, that's why. These two APIs don't have all the data used by IPTWeather (no text description for instance, ...), and that's why you have an error.

You should use only one of the following APIs:

samsu, ruan, synium, shgao, saray, greek, tl01

The samsu API gives a 7 day forecast.

The ruan, synium, shgao and saray API give a 5 day forecast.

The greek API (and the tl01 too I think) give a 3 days forecast.

:D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Dear xda friends, I have a bad news.

The IPTWtranslationLanguageCode setting to translate the weather description cannot work anymore :(.

So you can have weather only in US English now by setting IPTWtranslationLanguageCode to empty (as by default actually).

I haven't found another solution yet to allow translating the weather description texts.

Installation problems ?

Hello,

sorry but I can not make run this application ... I will then, explain you the steps I followed and ask you some specific questions that I can not find in the FAX (maybe update it ?)...

This concern a fresh hard reseted stock ACER S200 rom with the latest S2U2 (2.34) & MortScript 2.3b15.

This is the way I've procedeed ...

1. Install S2U2 and launched it one (to configure the password)

2. Install MortScript (beta as you recomanded there http://code.google.com/p/iptweather/wiki/Installation)

3. Install the IPTCab to SD Card

4. Extract to SD Card AccuWeatherHD.zip & S2U2icons.zip

5. Configure in the S2U2 Settings in orther to "match" the folder paths of IPTWS2U2WallpaperPath & IPTWS2U2UserWeatherIconsPath

6. Configure the Location (automaticaly done ... Brussels in my case)

7. Launch "Start IPTWeather" ... but nothing happens (I have no confirmation that the script is launched but in processus MortScript is running ...)

8. Launch S2U2 ... without any success ...

So my questions are the following :

0. There is any need of soft resets ir I can do the whole process at once ?

1. Should I install IPTWeather Cab in the main memory or I could also install it in the SD Card ?

2. Could the path include "spaces" ... for instance the folders can be moved in the SD Card "\SD Card\Something" or have to be installed in the main memory "\Myicons" ?

3. Should I modify something inside S2U2 main settings ... for instance modify the wallpaper paths ? activate/desactivate the weather ...

I send you a copy of my weather.ini

Thanks a lot ...

Christophe
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Hi ctsatis, I'll be glad to help you and improve the installation steps and/or the FAQ !

This is actually because the default configuration file comes with Brussels as the location as I am in Brussels now :p

When you "start" IPTWeather, by default, it just schedules the next update... if you want that starting IPTWeather actually proceeds with a first update, please set IPTWreloadLastDataOnStart=1 in your IPTWeather configuration in User Settings. You can use the IPTWeather configuration link in the start menu if you don't want to edit the weather.ini file manually.

What do you mean by "processys MortScript is running"?

You mean you cannot lock your device with S2U2 or just that you don't have weather information in it?

0. No soft reset required :)

1. You can install IPTWeather wherever you want :)

2. The path can include blanks. Your icons can be wherever you want :)

3. IPTWeather automatically configure S2U2 to fit your IPTWeather configuration, so you don't need to do anything with S2U2 :)

By default, the next update is scheduled in 2 hours, so perhaps now you have your weather data...

Or you should try to use "IPTWeather Location" and select again your location (hence Brussels).

You should be prompted to update the weather...
