DAMN! Im 110% its not on mine
I dont have any GPS software on my device, that sucks!
Anyway I can get a copy from your device?????
THANKS!

I have a better idea. Why don't you check out this thread chock-full-o applications for the Diamond. Scroll down and you'll find Google Maps and you may find other things that interest you as well. As the Diamond is very similar to the Touch Pro it should work. I got my iGo nav software up and running by reading a thread posted in the Diamond forum. So if you don't find what you're looking for over here, try over there. You may also want to try Windows Live Search. I believe the url is wls.live.com which you can download directly via your s...l...o...w... EDGE connection. Let us know how it works out.

thank you!!!!
i got it on my device but it will not show my location, it says looking for satelite.
tnx again

Also, if you're trying to download from www.google.com/gmm, make sure you use pocket IE. if you go to that website using opera, it identifies itself as a desktop browser and hence you get the error.

If you haven't already then try doing this:
1) Run QuickGPS and download latest satellite data.
2) In Google Maps select Menu->Use GPS.
Be patient the first time, it will take longer than usual to acquire a signal the first time you use it. QuickGPS should help to acquire a signal faster. If you are having trouble then make sure you are outside or close to a window with a direct view of the sky to test it, but it will probably work in the interior of your home too.

Ok so I used Internet Explorer as suggested on the board and was able to load it with no problem.
Thanks again and hope this post helps someone else.

Help. It's not working.

Hi,
So, I've installed Manilla to my tilt. It looks great, it flows very nicely, and on the surface, I don't seem to have any problems. But, I'm having problems.
In the People tab, I can't add People. I can click, it highlights, then nothing happens. This seems to be the problem for some of the other tabs too.
Email and text work great.
Internet started working once I downloaded Opera, which is now working well.
Camera is fine too.
The music tab gives me an error message every time. "Cannot play the file. The file is either corrupted or the Player does not support the format you are trying to play." This comes up, but I haven't tried to play anything, this happens everytime I accidentally click on this tab, which leads me to wondering if there's a way I can delete this tab.
The Weather tab doesn't work at all. I click menu, and add a location - nothing. I click add a location on the screen, and I get nothing.
Map Search works fine.
Settings - When I click on sync data, it takes me to the sync screen. When I click Communication, it takes me to the about screen. When I click Sounds, Wallpaper, or About, I get nothing.
Lastly, I have the same problem in Programs tab that I do in the People tab. I can't add any programs.
The programs I'm running are
SJ 2DManila 1_00_18192926_00.cab
XDA-Team_Manilla2D.cab
M2DC_v0.17.183.CAB
RRE_Manilla_1.4BETA.rar
M2DC_v0.21.213.CAB
Scotchua_Manila_Fix.cab
TF2D_Digital_Clock_with_Manila2D_Fix.cab
Seriously, I'm willing to have a phone call with someone to try and take care of this, anywhere in the world, I am willing to call.
Also, if someone thinks that the software they're running is better than the manilla stuff, I'm willing to give it a shot. I just really like the touchflo/iphone-ish feel.
Thanks,
I appreciate any help. And I know the answer to my problem is somewhere out there on either the ROM development or the Software sections, but I tried searching and just came up with too many hits.

First of all which ROM are you using Manilla with?

Post your question in the rom thread you are using, or one of the many preexisting manila threads. Thread closed.

Titanium weather

Hi all
I am having problems when updating weather, it simply does not update, it conects to internet but on screen it´s stucked "conecting to accuweather"
even if I soft reset or deactivate and reactivate titanium weather stills the same.
City code it´s ok and this problem just started today, before it was upgrading perfect.
I haven´t installed or uninstalled or changed any config on my Uni
Anyone have a clue of what can be the cause of my problem?
Thanks in advance,

Doesn't work for me either.

Strange because I can´t find any logic reason, sometimes it works great, even with auto update, and sometimes it´s just stock at conecting accuweather...
Hope someone can give us a clue here!

was having porblems with today stuff, made a HR and I'm going to try again- I'll keep you posted.
Cheers

Thanks ultravox
Waiting your comments regarding this,

Having same problem.

he he he, I'm a step behind, my city code is not correct, lol
Cheers

wow!
Yes you are!
My city code is perfectly but no logic behaivour as I said...
Hope dies at last!

I just might give up on Titanium weather and use SPB Mobile Shell 3.0, it's a real pleasure to run and weather on it works like a dream, but a bit of a memory hog, so once I get 128Mb upgrade, there will be no stopping me. Hehe.

Paisa search a lil more...
you will see that some older versions of weather dont has the patch...
Thats because accuweather has change the server... so try to find that patch as is... there are plenty or newer weather titaniums by showaco... try reinstalling it... or apply the patch if you have a duplicated plugin disable the old with a titanium customizer.
Hope works for you all.

Gracias,

Sorry guys, mine is working fine. Has been since installed Tomals 6.5. I don't understand the problem. There must be something you've installed prior that conflicts after a time.

roloracer send me his working mortscript, I´m doing some tests and report back, he consider that maybe with that can be solved the problem.

After some trial and error, I just found out that after installing titanium weather it should be updated(the mortscript).
Now it's working fine. no errors here.

Update
Well I figure out that where I live signal is sometimes very low, or even 0 signal, so if automatic updater starts when there is no signal it gets stucked at "conecting accuweather"
As I´m now traveling to an area where signal is very good no problem has presented to this moment.
That is only a suposition and not sure about it, but till now updater is working well
I´ll keep you posted

Hm, i guess it is also problem with me. I was traveled today in city and there was no problem with stucking on connecting accuweather.

So perhaps there is a problem when titanium weather can not find signal to update, some kind of error.
I tried to deactivate the automatic update but I can´t, every time I unselect the box, save and exit, if I enter again it´s activated again...
Hope anyone can advice!
Cheers,

And... What about JMLToday? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=540413
I'm using it, and it's working OK.
It's possible to customize (Haven't tried yet)

Thanks for the tip ultravox
I´m doing some tests with titanium weather and as long as I have good signal to do update my problem is solved!
Anyway perhaps I test your recommendation
How are your experiences with it?

HTC HD2 - weather update

Hi all
Just wonder - where are settings for weather server kept in manilla? Is it possible to modify them, for example set different server? Thing is, phone works great, but gives me limited list of locations to choose. And strangely, my little town Corby, UK, is not on the list ;P (wonder why...)
Would it be possible to hook database to AccuWeather, or similar?
Cheers
Chris

That's because it gets confused by Scottish towns in the midlands of England. Use Kettering
Seriously though, Kettering ain't in there either, and I don't know how to add places that aren't. Northampton is the closest I can find for you.

corby is gray but now raining...yet.

Well, judging on what I found so far on other threads (like this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=583445&highlight=weather ) this feature of HD2 does not perform too well. Even locations that are on list (like London) aren't automaticaly working as My Location.
Looks like another topic for update from HTC...

works great for me (im in the netherlands) both 'my location' and the two citys i visit most (haarlem & amsterdam) work as i would expect, if i had to complain about something it would be that if i update in the evening, and look at weather next morning, the picture stays beeing a moon...

My small village of Groombridge doesn't work either! I have to use T Wells... Am I right that it uses the mobile network to determine current location. At Gatwick last week, it said I was in the village of Horley.......

I have a HTC Hero as well. On that it works almost 90% of the time or just keeps the last location available if it can't find the present location. I think the way the Hero works is that it searches the closest town and then shows the weather for that even if it falls in another zone (or something like that). I think on the HD2, it is more specific. Living in London, it isn't easy to keep track when moving around as it will change quite often depending on where in london you are. However, there is still alot of improvements to be made on the HD2 in terms of the weather location app when compared to the Hero.

Worked perfectly in bristol since i have come back to london only found one place it works near where i live really annoying tbh.
I know that on manilla 2d all that had to be changed was the xml file for the accuweather database...
Also the location it updated to is not in the list of avaliable cities so GRR!

Weather update
Try searching for an app called 'weather city update' on the Leo Forum. It will allow you to add in any city you like. I've used it and added my home town of Kettering in there.

It works a treat on HD2. Better than My Location.

I see HTC posted an update on Tuesday for the Touch2 which was plagued by the same problem, hopefully a similar fix will be available for the HD2 soon.

hi everyone,
may i know how to update weather by using wifi, instead of using auto data connection? It cost me a bomb each time it auto connect to internet by using data connection!

firstly have a look at this app
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=546141
'Weather city editor', allows you to add additional locations to your HTC.
This lists many locations within the UK, alas not Corby, but Peterborough is there.
Hope it helps

Copilot is a nightmare......

i am running rom 161 with the std setup, i have tried to use copilot but when i use the trial or i use the product key i have bought , it just starts to run slow and then locks the phone up and never runs again , been onto copilot support what a waste of time still not able to use it tried hard reset, tried new sd card still no joy really getting Peeded off now any ideas anyone copilot have said they dont have a clue GREAT , but they wont refund me

try to upgrade to lastest rom or hard reset... i dont use it myself but ive seen ppl using it without any problems so it must be something wrong on your side

I am using the Energy ROM from feb. 10th and I do not have any problems with Copilot, all is running smooth and well.
I have used it with many of the cooked roms and also with the 1.48 stock rom, haven't had any problems yet.

+1 for everything running smooth, it even runs great with pinch to zoom from bsb tweaks.

try flashing a stock rom then flashing to the custom rom you are running.

i'm using the new l26 ROM and i spent yesterday completely upgrading my copilot version and the maps and it runs very very smooth on my telstra hd2 (currently in use in the USA)

mines smooth
i bought my CoPilot ver.8 and installed it on my HD2 with Dutttys latest rom. Mine is running perfect with no issues whatsoever. Using USA maps if that matters.

I was told by copilot support, that with a custom rom the
- pinch to zoom function
- the Navi Panel function
- the direct access to the phonebook
will not work.
Can you confirm that?
TIA

These results are with copilot live v8 installed on duttys rom:
1 - Pinch to zoom does not work however you can still use the + and - to zoom in and out
2 - what is the navi panel?
3 - (Direct access to phone book) When i try it, the contacts that i have an address associated with it does show and works. it does not show contacts that do not have addresses associated with them

Hi herculese1,
point 3 is the most important one. I don´t like to type adresses all the time.
So it´s good to hear, that it´s possible to navigate to a adress out of the phone book.
The navi panal should allow access to phone funktions out of CoPilot.
Thanks

Yea, It def works. Also, If you only have the city listed in the contact information you can choose to go to the center of the town or type in the address with the city info already populated.

Meanwhile I tried a CoPilot cab, but so far isn´t working.

The phonebook was the deal. So it is ok that way.

sorry told you wrong , i am using a stock 166 rom from htc website, still no joy >>>>>>> any ideas or do i give up on it i flashed it using a goldcard , is there any way i am leaving some info on the device still when i flash does it completely clear it ?
or is there a way to clear hd2 up first

I am a newbee in this matter.
What I found so far is:
flashing a new ROM deletes everything on a mobile phone.
I had flashed ! SSPL ! from stock 1.48 to Artemis 3.5
Than back to 1.48 and to Artemis 3.7
The problem could be, if you already have used CoPilot, there will be informations also stored on the SD card. Or you changed the name of your phone.
But I am not sure!

I also found this, but didn´t tried.

It wont be much good sending you a code as it would deactivate the running copy.
I have been having the same trouble with my copy as it worked well from the start after buying my HD2 from O2UK. I then tried to install further maps as I hope to travel to USA later in the year. On contacting Co Pilot I was informed I would have to uninstall the HD2 version loosing the pinch to zoom feature. Then reinstall from scratch to be able to get the maps to work But they are looking at adding the pinch feature to other regions in the future ( SO THEY SAY!!!! )
So I gave up and will take my faithful old XDA Orbit 2 with all my mapping already installed from last year.
