Hello...just downloaded this version of CHome Weather and it looks amazing...great job. There's only one problem, probably related to the 240x320 cpr file because, like I already read in the excalibur forum, there's an issue in 240x320 where the background looks a little odd and doesn't fit the area like it supposed to. But again amazing job...keep it up
EDIT: I've just used a version of the 240 x 320 cpr file already used in another version of your plugin and it works great now
I was just now testing the other layouts and there are some issues:
- I realized that everytime i change the layout, it doesn't matter the cpr 240x320 file i did put there because when the layout is changed the cpr file is kind of replaced by the one corresponding to the sellected layout.
- In the HTC and Iphone layout, it shows always an icon with a cross below the icon of the current weather, instead of showing the icon corresponding to the weather.
- In regular layout, the gold and silver backgrounds don't work well in 320 x 240.
- In the regular layout, in the 1 and 3 layouts, I can't see the hi and low temperature.
Yeah, you'll have problems with the portrait layouts.
Is it possible to fix the problem with portrait?? That is the last thing, that keeps me from donating.
I am so happy with this program. I worked as Organic M's test subject to get this working. I can't say I notice the problem you guys are talking about in regards to portrait mode.
This is what I see:
have the author, removed the files from the location... I am unable to get those...
Can someone help plzzzzzzz!!!!!!!
Thanks

There are 2 links in the main post at the top of this thread.
The first one is the weather program
The second one is all the files that need to be installed to /windows on your device
Davis,
From your post, it looks like that screen is in ladscape mode. Portrait is taller than wider, yours looks wider than it is taller.
Thanks a lot.. I found the same at the post. I was just eager to get Weather update on my VOX...So got carried away...
Thanks

Well if you put it that way, you'll definitely NOT get me to fix the portrait layouts. How about.. "here's a small donation and small request... I would really appreciate it if you could work on the portrait layouts(which is a major PITA) so this works properly on my phone".
Well then I Only wanted to know if it is possible to do it. But I can live without it. I can look outside to see the weather. You know I made a lot of stuff for the Vox...but I never received ANY donation!!!
works beatifull. got no issues with any layout (i'm using plain black background). excellent job!
the only question i have is if it is possible to manually edit order of appearance on home screen somehow as i could do it in standard homescreens in _home.xml file?

This is definitely NOT what I wanted to happen here. I worked with Organic M to get this app to work with our phone models and he was nice enough to help us out.
This is far from the thanks that he deserves, since the app is designed for an entirely different model.
Why so serious? can't we all just... get along?

I think the Chome Configurator will allow you to change the order of Slides on your Home Screen.

I have no idea what you are talking about....
???
As I said I only wanted to know if it is posible nothing more. And I just wanted to clarify that people here are not thankful! I really do apreciate his work. And the work of all the other coders and cookers! I hope you understand my point!
Does this plugin use necessarily the whole width of the screen, or is it possible to customize its size or layout (present conditions, 2-days forecasts, 5-days forecasts...)?
At present I'm using Fizz Weather with Orange plugin on my Wings, in order to show an analoug clock and weather forecasts next to it (see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=89987&d=1212446950); will it be possible to make the same thing with Chome Weather?
So... is anyone still interested in making this work better with the Vox ? Maybe ask some of your ROM cookers to look at the policies in the registry and ask them remove the restricts that don't allow cab files to copy files to the \windows directory ? Then I wouldn't have to make two separate .cab files when I released a new version That, and if anybody wants to help test the portrait layouts, we can make this happen.
Yes it would be great to see the weather plugin fully working on the Vox...that thing about the restrictions I never understood that because after checking myself the registry many times, I saw that the restrictions were disabled and the thing about installing files in the windows folder still remains a problem...

How to do that?
there'e all files I used:
more additional and simpler method
used only 2 files:
Nice and thanks
I tried the two files and they worked well here (Pure running Tess 4.1)
I had a few personel changes I would prefer
White(er) clock digits would be more visable on my dark background
And I sometime have a hard time finding the current icon (to slide it )
with the transparent slider, I mainly changed it to get the 5 icons
Either of these "user" adjustable?
(wasn't there a select from multiple clock faces setting somewhere?)
I also noticed (its what really 1st got my attention!)
you have 5 launcher icons
I really like that feature! or even 4 wide how many total icons (rows?)
and how did you do that?
Thanks

Sorry as a follow up I decide to remove the clock and slider
unfortunately I was unable to remove the clock completely
(remove programs failed) Fortunately I had backed up first and
was abel to get back the original white flip clock with a cold reset and restore
I might have had more luck if I turned off TF3D before attempting removal?
but just as a heads up the cams I had the problems with were
No_BG.cam and No_slider1920.cab
I've also noted that it Doesn't look like the task bars with the two file solution
are actually transparent? they look solid black?
The pic thats with the three files TF3D 2.5 top and bottom curtain files
and clock 26 trans. looks more like what I'm looking for, bit I don't understand how you replace the single manila files with the 3 masks (they all have the same name. even though in different subdirs) but can't help but wonder if these will work with the set of "colored task bar icons" I'm using? (aren't the masks
specific to the icons artwork?
I know I've asked "a lot" and from two different authors, but I'd be willing to
bet its an interesting topic that at least a few people would like to know more about.
Thanks

I'd like to have the bottom slider (the one for selecting tabs) semitransparent.. Actually it is in today screen, ma I'd like to have it semitransparent also on all tabs.
Back to the launcher icons. Anyone has an idea how to get 4 and more there?
Hi,
I can't do this task!
After turning off the HTC Sense, I tried to copy and paste files, but the unit had the following message:
Can not copy 'Access Denied'
Make sure that the memory is enough free storage, the destination is not write protected and file is not being used
I am performing a wrong way?
Thanks

4x4 or 4 horizontal and 5 vertical would be even nicer but not the opposite way!
Pleeeeeaaasssseeee support me
+1 here
1+ same here. All of those existing .cabs change the fonts and although I activate the ClearType (or wathever that is), the fonts don't look good.
Looks fine to me. I've got 5x4 quicklinks and the fonts are smooth, as you'd expect.
Which cab are you using for that? I am using a 4x4 one but it forces the plain black wallpaper.
I would also love to have 4x4 or 4x5 which doesn't need to turn on clear type, because even with clear type on, font's are weird somehow.

As far as I'm aware, that cab doesn't knacker your wallpaper, and I do know that contact images work too.
But, in case you're interested, I made the background (hi-res, on all tabs) with this...

Edit: I just tried it with ClearType off, and yeah, the font for the links is a bit poo. It looks like it's been done at normal size, and then shrunk very badly. Looks fine with ClearType on though.

I have to turn on cleartype too, I've tried edit a font size and still makes no difference in the mode9 file.
From what you have statet it looks to be quite bugless but it is again the 5x4.
I want 4x4 or 4x5 by all means (only 4 rows horizontal).
Any idea?
Anyone has an idea or tutorial of some kind how to do what we need? Maybe we could try ourselves.

Hi Guys,
As the title suggests, I'm looking to install Rolex,Omega or Tag clocks on my HD2. I would ideally like to install them independently so I can use Vovichek_Jamrecords 16 TT UPDATED.cab (which allows for 16 quicklinks) as well.
Before I get flamed, I've done a lot of searching and have found clocks that I can use here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=595745&page=5
and this thread...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=604796
but when I install them, I can't use any quick link apps and I can only use the default 9 quicklinks on the homescreen. The only other solution I've found is installing MaxManila but I don't want to do that as I like to install all of my stuff 1 by 1 rather than having a number of tweaks all installed at once like it making the calendar transparent & stuff which I don't want and it doesn't seem to install correctly on my phone anyway, with the quicklink name halfway up the icon, as I beleive it's designed for the blackstone?
Is there a simple solution to this and/or have I missed something? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Bumpity bump-bump
EXACTLY what i want too!
Bumpingtons
And another interested guy^^ There are several cabs for the flipclock and all are working like a charm! But I just need one working analog clock cab only, thats all what I need No MaxManila, no B4all and so on...only clock please!!
Exactly - me too.
Yes,
That's what I'm looking for, the clocks alone. I contacted jaguaralani who seems to be the main guy who makes these clocks and he says that it's not as simple as just whacking a clock on the phone. There are a lot of associated files included with any clock modifications which is why you often see the clocks included with other modifications like sliders, 20 quicklinks etc... I have seen standalone clocks which you can add but they won't let you use Quicklink apps and seem to conflict with other bits and pieces (check my first post for the link).
Thanks

Why not use max manilla.
Its safe and if you like the stock screen on UI just dont change any thing.
Just install the clock as per your wish.
One more thing you can do is that you can actually have two analogue clocks displaying two different time zones.
And as you said, jaguarlani is the one who makes most of them, and i agree they are awesome.
I am using a taghuer clock face. (i have twenty different clocks prepared by jaguarlani).
Just a word of caution dont install any clock hands, otherwise you will end up loosing the original clock hands, and if you un install the hands, the hands wouldnt appear on the clock face (it wont revert the previous ones). Same goes with the clock too, you would need at least one clock installed otherwise the clock would dissapear.
I absolutely love max manilla, give it a shot, its absolutely worth his effort.

Hi,
Thanks for the response. Can you explain this a little more please? Can I install MaxManila and not use any functions of it at all like the 20 Quicklinks, Transsliders or anything else except the clocks? I though that if I installed it, it would automatically install those tweaks to the HD2. Am I wrong?
Thanks

That´s what I thought too...I don´t like the clocks periphery (frame) coming with maxmanila, I really want to keep the black background in all other tabs except the starttab (don´t like the B4all thing, to me it´s too confusing and wild in the emailtab for instance ) and there are one or too bugs I dislike with maxmanila (20 shortcuts not working well?).
I agree I just want analogue clock with 16/20 short cuts + call history not the whole MaxManila so I'd be willing to give it a shot put something together but would appreciate if some of the expert manila/sense 2.5 skinners can point me in the right direction as to what tool they use to edit the manila files? is it manila kitchen found here?http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=528548

I don't know what version of Sense you have, but here is my simple analog clock array for 2.5.1922, with no B4all !
If this installs and works ok for you, then we can worry about skinning the clock with one of the other skins out there. Let me know!
If it doesn't work for you, sorry, just uninstall! If it does, I gladly accept beer!

No problem, sorry it didn't work for you. The clocks however are changable, once you have a configuration that works for your rom.
It would be easier to possibly help you, if you could tell me your version of sense. Again, sorry it didn't work on your rom.

Ditto.
I have no clue where to begin.
guys, i will do those sliders for you this weekend if nobody else does in the mean time.
a few obs:
- i only do what i find, i don't have time to search for eg. large preview icons
- if you want more you'ld better start searching
- i suggest to try my slider first to see if you have any issues - see my signature

Hi redzepplun, i think there was misunderstanding I did not mean these slider icons, i meant 'way out there' ones, which I tried and they did not look good. they are quite small. But the ones you are referring on this thread (made by 12aon) are really nice and would fit quite well.
