Hey... Two days ago my weather update stopped working? - I´m normally using WLAN, but have also tryid GPRS. I have tryid to remove the city and choose it again and so on. I have soft-reset my unit a couple of times also??
I´m using the normal weather plugin who came with my Touch Cruise and it has been workin great (uptil now)
Any ideas??
(I have offcourse seached the forum before askin, but could find anything helpful)

yeah same for me but little different; i CAN update the weather data with HTC Home Weather Screen, but when i try to update the weather while im in SPB Mobile Shell 2, then it does not work.
It does not update with Wifi, 3G, HSDPA or even with Active Sync and broadband connection.
Any solutions?
Well, I had a different problem, but maybe it will help you gentlemen. I wanted to be able to add local cities to the list in the HTC Home weather app. But the "included" verision doesn't seem to allow such edits. In fact, I couldn't even replace the file I needed to edit with the "device" version loaded. So I went to "Remove Programs" and removed HTC Home. I then downloaded and installed another version suggested by another forum member...
http://weather.not2advanced.com/files/htchome-2.1-n2a.cab
When I first installed it, I didn't get the letters down the right size of my contacts to quickly go between last names. But within a day or a soft reset, they seemed to come back and everything works great. Now I have my home city, work city, parents city, both sisters cities, and a few more I threw in for fun.
Short of an iPhone like app where we could setup cities and then just flip pages between them, it works awesome. And maybe this app will work better for you. Good luck!!!

That sites seems to be down and I'm having the same problem with weather updates. Any chance you have a copy and could upload somewhere for all of us...?
Thanks,
Rick
Doh!! I found it, and yes, the weather is now updating.
Glad you got it fixed. I'm having the "outage" type problem here myself. Once I've looked online so I know what to wear today, maybe a soft-reset is all it needed.
And I definately want to add a few more cities, because the one I've chosen for today isn't in my current list.
Thanx
Thanx for suggestions
Before i installed another update i wantet to try one more time, and now it´s working again?? - maybe the server was down or something..
Best regards Michael
THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN SOLVED
thank you to JesusFreke and all who offered advice.
I posted this in the original rooted rc30 thread, but its still an issue
After updating to the test keys with rc30 1.0 and 1.1, myfaves reports it is not installed and google calander, google reader, and my contacts won't sync with my google account, however my gmail still does.
This sounds like the same lissue people were having when they would uninstall the myfaves.obex and myfaves.apk from the /systemn/app file, as per the "uninstall/rtemove MyFaves" thread, but those files are still there.
I use myfaves a fair amount, and online managment of the contacts is up for the g1 for some reason, so I have to use my sim card in someone elses phone to change them.
Not to mention my calander isnt syncing, which is a problem.
I have dug through all the of the files I can think of, and come up with nothing. I even redownloaded the update.zip and rechecked the md5 on the old and new, and both are perfect
If anyone cant verify this issue, or help in any way, Id be very appreciative
Thanks
Have you tried re-installing the modified RC30 v1.1 update? It's possible one of the files might have got corrupted as it was copying to the /system folder.
It might be a pain, but you could also try reseting the phone (alt+w in recovery mode). You'll lose all the data on your phone, but it will stay at the same version you have installed - modified RC30v1.1
If that doesn't work, run adb shell logcat > logcat.txt and post it here. You might mess with the sync settings a bit while logcat is running - turn on and off syncing for contacts/calendar/etc.
Hey JF
Well I reodwnloaded rc 1.0 and rc 1.1 and they both seem the have the proper md5sum, but this issues existss on both
I take this to mean you have myfaves installed and I am an isloted incident?
attached is my logcat output
calander failed twice during that
ill try the recovery if all else fails.
Id rather renter data and have a fully functioning phone
Thanks

I've never had myfaves installed actually. The myfaves apk is in my /system/app folder of course, but I don't have the actual myfaves functionality. Isn't it an extra service you have to pay monthly for? I don't have the service, and I assume it has someway of checking that and not exposing the myfaves functionality when that is the case.
So it's a bit hard for me to test, because I would have to way to know whether any changes I try work or not
I'll take a look at the logcat file, and see if it sheds any light on the problem, thanks.
Is there anyone out there with modified RC30 that still *does* have the actual myfaves functionality on their phone?
I notice an error with the timezone in your logcat file.
do a
getprop persist.sys.timezone
on your phone. What does it output?
myFaves
Hey JF,
You are a good lookin green machine with some green roots spread all over.
Concerning my faves. I clears the cache or tried to uninstall it after I updated to your modified rc30. I lost all my contacts .
Normally, when you add a contact, it looks through your gmail contacts but those are all gone. How do I get all that back?
Best,
Hbguy
oh i just synced the contacts and got everything back
moral of story: i think everytime you clear myFaves, it deletes all your contacts
@JF
are you using an american unit?
the myfaves icon should have been on teh home screen by deault, if it is still there, when you try to tap it, it should either open or say that the applicaiton is not installed
the proper time zone
America/Los_Angeles
@hbguy
mhm, it seems as though its tied to each other on the american verison. there was an issues where the american build would send a text to the t-mobile server every so often, so non american people with non tmobile phones were getting screwed with international texts.
its in this forumn somewhere

Yes, I have had 3 american phones. The first was RC19 when I got it, and I honestly can't remember if it had a myfaves icon on it or not. That particular phone is currently on official RC30 and it does not have a myfaves icon.
The other two phones were RC28 when I bought them, and I'm sure neither of them had a myfaves icon.
That's why I'm guessing it somehow checks if you are signed up for the myfaves service with t-mobile. If not, then it doesn't show the icon. Who knows though..
I know for a fact it is installed by default on the rc19
Because it was there when I purchased it, before I signed upo for myfaves
I'm resetting it nogoodluck to me
The myFaves app is installed on all US phones but not displayed. The myFaves app is the one that has to do with contacts. Deleting myFaves or erasing the cache deletes your contacts and you will not be able to add any.
Just curious... where is this 1.1 update? I got the 1.0 modified update but not a 1.1

Ohhh I thought google released a 1.1 you got me confused JF... I think you need to have like a thread just for your updates and maybe call them JF1.1 so we know its the cracked version.
The restore worked.
Thanks JF =)

Great!
Have you tried to see if you could make a link to myfaves with anycut?
not sur if it would help. i never saw a myfaves icon on my g1.
[edit] sorry didn't see the second page and that the issue was solved..
Well, the problem is that I can't see the temperature and I only see red crosses. I live in Holland, so my location (I looked it up) gave me
EUR|NL|NL002|LELYSTAD
But I can't get ANY information about the weather at all. I even tried to set the location to Amsterdam, but without any result.
Can someone help me out?
The titanium is bad...
jajajaja yes it wasnt correctly installed on the titanium... you must to overwrite it with the newer one cause accuweather ahs change somethings...
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,

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

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?

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

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.

I've not tried it, but I did check the weather site, and Corby is on there, so you should be able to add it

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
