Hi!
I've been using Spb Weather for a while, and I really like it, but it has one major drawback. It only has a today plugin, not a "real" application you can launch, but what I really like is the ability to make a custom weather source parser (template). Is there any other weather applications out there that can handle custom sources?
Regards,
PK

Try Pocket Weather: http://www.sbsh.net/products/pocketweather/

Or Weather Panel, since it's free and it's kinda what you're looking for

Thanks for reply. Think I'll try Weather Panel first because it's free!

Weather panel is not free.
http://www.marsware.net/WeatherPanel/features.htm
It's $12.99 and you can buy it here.

I have installed on my XDA, iMate XDA II, ipaq 6515, Dopod 818, Dopod 818 Pro, and HTC Advantage. It's my only and essential 3rd party today plug-in.
Hi!
Can anyone give me some guidance in how to make a custom source parser for weather panel?

Hey guys!
I hate having to search for that very small default clock on my WM6 "today screen".
I need some .cabs or customs of clocks on the "today screen" or home screen for my Treo 750 AT&T. I liked the HTC Home Screen plugin, but it lagged my system down too much to use functionally. Is there just the clock of that available or something similar?
Thanks in advance, folks!
I use SPB Time.
try the 4 tab plugin...
Try the HTC plugin i posted on this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355198
Its fast on WM6 ATT ROM and look nice...
have any of you seen the clock on the vzw sammy i760...that is a clock that would be awesome on the 750...i wounder if someone could pull that clock from the sammy???
check this link to what the clock looks like...http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/zoom.php?p=1108&g=1

I've installed SPB Time and Phone Suite. It's quite nice and I can fit everything on one screen and about 2 tabs.
The clock is big, not as big as HTC Home but much more contrast so faster to glance at are a plus.
A++++: software is stable!

I've tried the 3-button on the WM5 and WM6 and also the 7-button on my WM5... I'm afraid to try another HTC home, but I'll give it a shot and let you know, thanks.

Hi All,
I780 Screen is a little bit small than other PDAs so demand appropaite choice of Pulg ins for today screen - to show more info.
Here is my screen as of now....
Something interesting: Deletion of below bar to add some more space in today scrren. Please post your today screen.
hi may i ask, what did u do to get the news? i wish to have them too.
For news I use SPB insight...
Currnetly I have downloaded relavga so today also changed a lot...I will post that soon...
But where are other I780 Users?? We wanna see how others configured their today screens so please post.
I don't really like busy today screens - so mine is pretty vanilla:
Hi where can dl this pretty vanila? Thanks.
I'm old fashioned.
Off topic: Does anyone of you use any kind of TouchFlo on i780? No 3D cubes or iPhone like apps but just scrolling any system screen using fingers (like the new Opera Mobile 9.5).

It's pretty straight forward:
1) get a HTC home plug-in of your choice - I use the HTC Home Idiamond (you can get the .cab in the hacking and development forum).
2) UITweaker - change the menu bars to black
3) Select the calender and task items in settings.
That's it!

I tried touchflo but couldn't get it to work - I use pocketCM with a black theme and that works well with my current today screen.
Some of the themes work that goes on in the hacking/development forums is amazing but it's just too much hard work for me!
Oh two other MUST-HAVE apps for i780 users -
Slide2unlock - 100X better than using the built in lock and again fits into the black and white theme I'm going for.
S2P - great media player from same developer than works well with s2unlock.
Anyone know how to remap the softkeys - I want the Calendar one to be mapped to opera.

I use
1. Resco file explorer 2008, it's a touchflo scroling application.
2. Ulimate Launch
3. SPB Mobile Shell - with realvga
Fortunately there's an app that works: FTouchSL. But it's not free...

I think the trial version is free with no time limit. There are some excluded features compared to the registered version though I understand.
I use Ultimate launcher with the HTC homescreen plugin. Best solution ever.

I am running it on my Touch Cruise. It is indeed much more configurable and flexible. However, I am having some issue with the automatic updates of weather.
just tested and found it is great software worked fine on both 2003 and 6.0 devices. auto update for 1 hours for three cities worked, it is great if the weather update could be date/time stamped, will con report after try all features
My Problem...
my Touch Cruise freezes very often. Probably caused by the touch engine of the Hinavigator. anybody same thing?

Uninstall the nice touch component. You can use the today plug-in without it. Since uninstalling the nice touch part, the rest of Cruise has been stable.
Thanks so much for your comments,
We have just released version 1.5.1 as below.
16 July 2008:
Release Hinavigator - Touch To Go version 1.5.1
# Weather auto update bug fixed.
# Bug fixed when change style to Menustyle with Auto-resize option
# Stability bug fixes
If you have any problems with Hinavigator, please do not hesitate in replying to us.

I have been in contact with your tech support. I am having issues with the weather auto update. I have installed v 1.5.1 and still the timestamp on the weather detail popup does not show the latest weather update. I have the weather set to update every hour, however, several hours may go by and the timestamp is not updated.
I am using an HTC Touch Cruise with WM6.0.
Touch cruise also freezes when I multi-touch it.
Could have more options (search based style)

Hello, in my opinion, can improve contacts:
1) use photos of contacts
2) if I do not know the photos to show the name
3) if I have several numbers by holding down slightly to show the other numbers of contact.
thank you
fab
p.s when tap the alarm in today freeze my phone (htc cruise original italian rom)

Same here!!
If I could have weather support for "Viana do Castelo, Portugal", this plugin would suit all my needs. The rest is very, very nice. It rocks!!
Thanks you all for your idea, sure with version 1.6 you will feel the fresh air of Hinavigator,
We are trying our best to support language pack and interesting features also.
Have a nice day,

Well, i am quite impress by this software so far, still using the old version 1.5 and looking forward to have the update version, besides the stability (react pretty slow on my device sometime), the rest are working flawlessly on my Asus P750 VGA..
Way to go, worth to try.

still freezes though uninstalling nice touch. still don t know when it happens. but find out freezing with the alarm settings also.
would be great to have seperated ini-files for eg the settings of the weather, to get more cities, for the settings of the programs and for the other links in the home screen... (alarm, mail, messages etc.. (also for keeping settings at updating)
greets voxid...
ps: it s the best homescreen i found till now.
pps: i could help you in translating to germany.

Hey!
I was wondering wich weatherapplication that is the best, and with most info and also has a nice screenresolution?
I have installed SPB Weather, but is there any other that is better?
Moved as not software release.
Take a look at the Weather Bug.
Try TouchWeather from mobility flow.
Hello, I was wondering if it exists some app to use with my HD2 for weather forecast etc. wich uses GPS/Google etc. (lihe HTC weather) to use as alternative to the HTC app...I've downloaded Touch Weather wich is GREAT but it doesn't use localization....
Some advice?
Thanks and regards
Andrea
Forget weather apps with "my location" ! Once You are there You already know how the weather is by looking outa the window or singing in the rain .............
What is more important: You wanna know the weather of the place YOU GO !
So the best weather app (and there will be no better in the next 20 years ) is Dunc´s Weather-Panel:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=707229
It´s a complete worldwide professional meteorological weather station in Your pocket and You can include also traffic cams !
Try it, You won´t regret it !

Maybe I am not understanding your question correctly, but PocketWeather DOES use GPS positioning for your current location. I cannot speak for the other programs however. See screenshot.
