first of all, all roms currently have it (all 6.5 latest) as far as i've seen.
and i actually asked but no one answered.

Works with Dutty's R1.

Or simply change the following registry key from 1 (enable) to 0 (disable) - restart is not needed:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]
"Weather.EnableCurrentLocation"=dword:0

well, both fixes turn out to fix this issue in the weather tab however the home tab still shows the last weather that it had before disabling this feature.
do you have any idea about how to fix it? and BTW, thanks for you help.

To turn it off "My Location" in the home screen tab, simply tap the clock, add a city, and make this city active. After that, you will have the home tab (and the weather tab, of course) displaying data for this city.
The patch that the fellow members told you about in the previous posts, makes the Weather Tab not showing "My Location" as an extra location (beside your current location you have selected for the Home tab).

Thanks

Thank you very much, Although it seems to be very simple, I search for it a lot with no success.

It's not so easy. Even that you change it, when it pass some time I see again "My Location". This happens in any Leo rom. Any ideas?

Ok, thanks. I see it don't work in newest Leo roms (as mine and other I'd tried). Dutty has always stable versions, not newest and experimental versions.

NRG Weather 3.0 beta

Hey guys... can one of you try to install this cab just posted in the Excalibur forum in the NRG Weather 3.0 thread ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2297821&posted=1#post2297821
I installed it - pictures will come in few minutes
edit:
but..why the red crossbows?
btw - i've got the 96dpi rom by zeeshee
I installed your app... on the 96 dpi rom. It looks good and it works quite well. I don't really know what i did but I managed to make it look tha same on the portrait and landscape layouts. at first it would take off the background in landscape.
The X symbol is because you don't have the location ID for the city you are in.

tell more - location ID who? in the phone or what?
go to yahoo weather and search for location id. You'll find your city there.
i've got the right location number : GMXX4381
but by weather forecast there're the red X-Symbols again!
Hm I had this problem once, because there was no 10-day forecast! Yes, just what I thought. I tried your location ID and there is no 10 day forecast, that's why it's nt working.
thanks a lot
Is it necessary to have internet access for you to be able to use a weather program? I dont have that kind of access yet with my provider.
guys - are you able to uninstall this item???
Nope... it's good that I like it. Otherwise I'd have to reflash the OS.
Background???
no worries peeps problem fixed!
I am using this for last couple of days and I find the following problems.
(1) It does not get uninstalled. Reflashing OS only removes it cleanly.
(2) Sometimes the font is oversized in the current weather panel which cannot be fixed.
(3) The phone also hangs or becomes non responsive occassionally.
Any solution to these

No, it only works with WM6.1 Chome: I asked the same in the thread in the Excalibur section, and that was the answer.
I suggest you to try Mini Weather (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=392267); it works also with WM6, not as a plugin but redesigning the background (so using no system resources).
Choosing the right icons it can produce nice results: you can see here the theme I use on my Wings.
what about uninstall procedure? is there any fix for that?
Can someone post the beta VOX installer for NRG Weather 3.0? The link in the original post in the excalibur format is broken now and no one over there seems to have the file!
I have the 2mb cab - but it wont install
actually that maybe version 1.0 not version 3

Manila Mods

As far as I know there aren't a lot lot raph's owner editing their manila to add a calendar, call history or comm manager tab. I bumped into all kinds of wall's when I tried to add an calendar tab. After a lot of searching and trying I can't get manila editor 2.0 to recognize the 26948339_manila file, It just doesn't see it for some reason. Anybody else tried and succeeded? Or to add other tabs? This could be the thread where different kinds of manila mods on raphael could be discussed. I'll posted it here when I have found a solution, cheers
These are some of the tabs, already in the diamond forum, Calendar, comm manager and Call history
Hi!
I currently have the calendar and commanager tabs working on my touch pro.
I took me some working to get them there, but i did it.
Try installing the theme posted on the link below, it has both tabs and is basically the original theme with the greens changed into blue (my creation).
You can apply the theme with Schap's Advanced Configuration Tool v 3.2.
Here you go: http://www.mediafire.com/?oxbz2eayvgu
Cheers and good luck.
Real nice thank you! Did you do this with manila editor? You mean to say open with TF3D config right? Either way can't seem to open it (i did use AC 3.2 and). Must be doing something wrong...
First, you got it right, I meant the Diamond TF3D Config instead of configurator, sorry for the mistake.
What version of the TF3D config are you using? I'm using 0.6.7 and i've just installed this very same theme after having changed to another one previously....
Where/how are you trying to install the theme? Are you going in the "appearence", selecting the directory where you placed the .theme file clicking on "path", selecting the theme it self on the drop down list, then clicking on "apply" and hitting "start"...
Maybe you missed some of these steps?
Anyways, take a further look and search into the diamond themes threads, you may find your way...
Cheers.
I would love a "tasks" tab...

Hey man thanks for replying did all that but it doesn't show, also have the latest version(apptodate), maybe it has thye wrong format. I'm on romeos. Here are some screenshot's. But could you also tell me how you edited these because I cannot get manila editor the read 26948339_manila. Anyway thans a lot , cheers
I'm out of ways to try to edit 26948339_manila (to add a calendar tab to manila), there is just no way this file is seen by manila editor 0.2. I'm using this on vista, maybe someone else has some info...
I have managed to install comm manager via this cab
Use a notepad like application (windows XP Notepad worked for me), not the manilla editor. Don't forget to change the file attributes to "writeable" (not read-only) prior to editing it.
Good luck.

Now my default theme. Thankyou. I was bored with the Vodafone one.
The call history page locks up each time I switch to it. Everything else works perfectly. What am I missing?
I succeeded in getting either a calendar tab or comm manager tab. Will attach the manila files, which are those created by D-MAN666 + 26948339_manila I edited (thanks cassiano)
Ok I succeeded in installing both of the tabs, with the above cab and these manila files (copy them to your windows folder with total commander). Something new has come up though, my home screen calander link became unresponsive (it doesn't link any more)

I had the same issue...and think it was because I loaded the Calendar tab first. Blob8Me has 14 tabs total with no issues, but went in a sequence that allowed it. I don't want to remove my calendar tab to install the call history tab first. Holding my ground with just 12 tabs.

I'm still using the Diamond Forum for most developments as much of the work done there works for the Raphael seemlessly - not all, but most. The next major development I'm waiting for is the ability to apply the Home wall-paper to all Tabs in TF3D but this doesnt quite work yet although I made some small progress with mun_rus's work for the Sprint Diamond - see post #78 in link bellow!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=432951&page=8
So - changes I've made since my last post here - I've added a sound settings tab - that gives me 14 active and useful tabs now I've added the analog clock to my home Tab - loosing the call history & appointment but I have the call history tab and still get my reminders for appointments. I've also added the VGA battery icon and tweaked the Titles on a couple of pages.
Current Tabs are:
Home - Of Course!
Speed Dial (People Tab)
Messages
Mail (Blackberry Connect & Emoze Free Push email client - www.emoze.com - both in use - very happy)
Jeff's Day (D-Man666's Calendar Tab)
Call History
Weather
Ohoto's & Videos
Music
Internet
Comm Manager (IDS_Communications Tab)
Settings
Programs
Sound Settings (Sound Tab)
A few (but not all) screenshots attached for info -those with the wallpaper as a background (weather, calendar) are as a result of woring on the background changer from mun_rus - please search this and the Diamond forum before asking for cabs, code etc.....
So - Lets see some more activity on the forum from Raphael users...... we do, after all have the best phone available in the world at the moment?

Yes, because the Call History and Calendar had the same number. Moved the Call History to page 11. Still locked when I went into the tab. Just uninstalled. I will install the Call History first after I install the Elite Rom (once released). Not sweating about it right now.
I was looking to reactivate the non responsive calendar link on the home screen but I suddenly got another tab added (the unresponsive link seems to be caused by mun_rus' Backgound Image on All Pages)

To be honest (having done a lot of this) I find that the standard notebook app that comes with windows is fine for basic edits????

I installed the Calendar tab on my Touch Pro - everything is working except the month and days are displayed as IDS_CALENDAR_xxxxxxx (xxxx being the name of month/day).
Where is this filed substituted?
Nevermind, I got it - the zip did not include one important file. I got it from elswhere, now it works.

Diamond2 Background Changer? Action Screen?

Hi There,
is there already a proggy that auto changes my background every x hours? Or does the old Diamond Background Changer still work?
And what about an action screen like fabliv's 9 button for diamond1?
They both work.

wath is the name of that prog that works on Diamond 2

It's kevin2u Diamond Background Changer and Fabliv's Action Screen. Just search the board for "diamond background changer" and "diamond action screen" and you will get there.
And what about background for all tabs? I have tried Showaco´s but doesn´t work properly on wvga (the picture does not cover all the screen and does not eliminate default background either). Munrus´s for HD doesn´t work either, although it correctly replace all backgrounds it freezes the start menu. Is there any working cab for the topaz yet?
There is some windows program which creates a .cab that installs a selected image file to all tabs, I believe it also came from the HD. But that's not really a good solution, as you can't just select the background on the phone and then display it on all tabs, you need to create a cab and install it.

Thanks for your answer. It is not exactly what I was looking for. It seems that we Topaz owners have to wait a little more for applications and ROMs. Patience then.
Please check this... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=517904
as far as i tried the action screen doesn't work... Installing went fine, but it did not start correctly. At the home screen there appeared an option 'action' in the bottom left corner, but opening it just directed me to the contacts, not the screeen i was used to on the diamond 1

Changing Wallpaper on the HTC Pure?

Okay, I'm sure I'm just being dense, but I can't figure out how to change the wallpaper on my new HTC Pure. That is, I can't change it beyond the Home Screen.
I've tried selecting wallpaper from both the TouchFlo "Wallpaper" button in the "Settings" slider tab, as well as the "Today" setting in WM 6.5.
The end result is I can change the colors of the bars and the wallpaper on the home screen. But if I move the slider in TouchFlo to anything other than Home (say, "Calendar" or "Settings" or whatever) I still see the default AT&T logo.
What am I doing wrong?
Search for "Background for all tabs" cab.
I've tried 4 different "background for all tabs" programs I've found here and around the net. None of them work.
I tried the one found here, following different directions found at different sites: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=503511. The instructions there were too complicated, and did more than I wanted.
I also tried all of the ones listed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=432951
NONE of them work on the AT&T version. I think they add in some encryption or something.
Finally found one that works:

[App] QuickMenu for HD2 (WWE and NOR)

I had problems finding a working version of QuickMenu for HD2, so I modified my own .cab a bit. I hope this will help others as well. Im attaching a version for norwegian ROM and also for the WWE.
If anyone want to use it on other languages, the only modification after installation is to change 0409 to your own local code in the files:
Program Files\Qmenu\QMenuCfg.dll.0409.mui
Program Files\Qmenu\QuickMenu.exe.0409.mui
and then in the settings of QuickMenu change the path for your local start menu.
so do we lost the original wm6.5 start menu?
no, the original start menu is stil present if you click on the text "start" instead of the actual start menu icon. you can also choose yourself in the settings whether the start menu hardware key will open Quick Menu, or windows' original start menu =)
This is awesome! Thx
Only issue I don't like is that it removes the built in taskmanager that can be accessed by pressed the top right corner by the battery.
Can't both be present?
Does somebody have a volume buttons problem after installing?
ROM 1.48.405 (and smth.)
Niiiice!
There are a couple of spelling errors in the Quick menu in WWE:
'Execute' rather than 'Excute'
'Options' rather than 'Option'.
Is there a way to show user defined icons rather than the system defaults in the menus as many will have installed a different set?
Great!
It works very, very well with HTC HD2!
Congratulations and thanks a lot!
JC
Thanks, works very well in conjuction with WM 6.5.x (except the interception of the close button)
Very finger friendly when you set the "Menu item edge" to 15 or more.
Thanks for sharing

*working* QuickMenu for HD2
hi guys, I've seen several threads on QM for HD2. I've been using a version which I picked up somewhere, and has worked flawlessly for all HD2 ROMs I've tried so far.
I also commented in this thread.
Quote from that thread:
I've been using QM since I saw it in one of nrg28 ROMs. the version I downloaded (no clue where from) behaves differently:
- no action if I tap the battery button, other than notification bar showing
- QM is activated by pressing left-top on taskbar (where previous Start was, now typically black area)
- and, and this is the best part imho, it is activated by a short press on the Windows HW button no need to reprogram long press of Send or End button. brilliant!

Can you give me some details how to do it since I'm new om WM devices?
Thank you.
I added the files below. mui for the Polish language and complete an application with the Polish language
Excellent app., this is what I need instead of SPB Mobile Shell (worked great on my Touch Diamond 1, but not on the HD2).
Been looking for these features
- Closing apps from the Today screen
- Reboot function
And handy (but less important)
- Starting apps
- Managing connections
Thank you !
