Which Rom are you using?

Is there a way to force the weather animation to animate? I wanted to show someone but could not at that time.

Just use the Demo. Hit menu on the today screen and then go to Weather Demo.

I don't have that option.

Hmm.. does it work on your weather tab?

No but its not a big deal. It seems to animate more when the battery is at a higher level. I will just wait when it snows or rains to show the cool animation.

Just open and close the task Manager in the upper right corner of the screen. If you're using the default background (or have weather set to animate with any background, like I do) it should animate with the current weather.

How do you set yours to animate with any background? I am running the stock VZW 6.5 ROM.
Thanks

hi thanks for the reply, I think a someone has tried that but may have problems with it on the 6.5 system, Ill try for myself tonight when I get home from work! Going to try HTC Home Customizer and see if the weather plugin works with 6.5. I really like the look of the weather update with icons etc along with the time/clock in the sliding panel as seen in the mini weather chrome app! Be great if that would work!

Success! I tried the Feather total clock but that didnt quite work, despite changing the feather file with the correct link (see 1st screenshot). The 2.14a version did work perfectly (after correcting the file with the link) and displayed the weather icon picture however the other version of feather weather which you can enable a panel on home screen didn't quite work as although the clock panel integration displayed info ok, the additional panel info was wrong and had the wrong date (see 2nd screenshot) and consequently wrong info (saying its sunny). Does the panel have a different link info that needs correcting perhaps?
update: Ok I settled on feather weather 2.14a as seen in my 3rd screenshot in total, but any ideas how I could get it so that the weather picture icons are larger and looks more like that of screenshot 4?
any ideas guys??

very easy.
when u want to change manila wallpaper (setting> personalize) , u have 2 option:
weather wallpaper
animated wallpaper
choose animated wallpaper and then select favorite wallpaper. now u have no weather animation in home screen.
i thought so, too, but there is still a little animation, right between my location and the alarm...
I noticed that too, I dont know if you would be able to remove that without installing some modded files - thats if there is a way to completely remove the weather animations at all.
If you would like a static, non animated wallpaper on your homescreen:
on the homescreen press menu (right softkey)
then press Home Wallpaper and finally press Animated Wallpaper. This will start HTC albums with three animated wallpapers in the directory. At that point, instead of selecting one of those three wallpapers press 'Albums' (right softkey), go to My Device or Storage Card and browse for the desired wallpaper.
The wallpapers used for the lockscreen are in My Device -> My Wallpapers. Those are static, no animations at all. You will still get the animation on the weather tab tho...
Hope this helps.
The only method to do this currently is to rename the WeatherService.dll entry in the registry to stop it from loading on startup. However, it comes with a few side effects.

the other option is to not update the weather. Click on the clock and add you city. Once this is done click on it and then just never update the weather and you will have no weather animation.
It's not an ideal solution but it works. Other than that use the animated wall paper like everyone else says

This won't stop the weather animation next to the clock and alarm.
it will if you dont update the weather as it doesnt know what to put there. you end up with this
Hi,
Nice Work
Weather thingy was right in the way in the middle of the screen!
Cheers,
Gavin
I wanted one of the weather wallpapers without the actual weather animation so i went into the folder with the weather wallpapers in and copied it into the folder with the animated wallpapers. This was then shown with the animated wallpapers allowing me to use a weather wallpaper without the animation. Animated wallpapers are located in Device/Windows/Animated Wallpaper. I can't actually find the weather wallpapers folder now. I know it's there somewhere but i can remember exactly where.
If you find the folder can you let me know cos it's annoying me that i can't find it.
Hi,
Weather is back in the middle on the screen and I can't shift it
Any ideas, please?
Cheers,
Gavin
On my TD2 I modded the 1c684cd8_manila (manila name: home.mode9).
Search for
Code:
<Property Name=Instance Name Value="Home_WeatherCom">
and add
Code:
<Property Name=Visible Value="False">
It removes the weatherfunction up to the displayed location name
And you can still use autoupdate and the weathertab
Edit: The attached CAB only works for Topaz Devices with WM 6.5 and Sense 2.1
Cab doesnt work for me, hd2 1.48 factory rom - T mobile.

Hello guys. I am not sure if this will work on htc Leo, but I am using Leo ROM on my device and this work with no problem. Use Reg Editor :HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila] "Home.WallpaperMode"=dword:00000002

As David Balfour said, if you don't update weather it won't be there.
Bare in mind, you will have to wait for the 5 day forcast to run out!!!

Or delete: \Application Data\HTC\databases\forecast_cache.db
If necessary, it will be recreated automatically.

then you have to modify the manilafile yourself with m9editor.
i dont know if its the same filename as on my TD2 but the code should work anyway. the manila name is home.mode9. good luck

Lockscreen background also in other menu's

Since my update to WM 6.5 offical ROM my lockscreen background also displayed in other menu's (settings and my start menu). How can I change it that the background only is displayed at my lockscreen?

You should be able to set all of them through the settings tab, personalizations.
If not the start menu picture is found in windows folder stwater.jpg and the today screen is tdwater.jpg.

I don't know what you mean, maybe my English is to crap
So in my settings menu personlizations I can change my background, I've did that before and it just works fine. I can't remember that there was an option to get them all at my backgrounds.
How can I manage it that I can have my background only at my screen lock. If the rest is black I'm fine by that At the moment I'm using LockDevice, and I don't want to go back to S2U2 where I can manage it how I like it.

LockDevice is a simple utility and only used the default today background, unlike S2U2 that can be customized.
I suggest a program called AutoWallpaper Changer. You can set it to change Today, TF3D and S2U2 at various intervals. If you use TF3D, you can uncheck it to be changed and change the today screen which would then be picked up by LockDevice.
Sorry I do not have a better solution.
No problem, thnx anyway

It works on Topaz, I tried it myself.

Change all manila wallpaper

Hi guys, sorry for my bad english: i have some questions on Touch2: i'ts possible change the background of any tab of the manila? not only the background screen "today", but also what you see as you scroll from one tab to another..
It can also make transparent both the clock and manila bar?
tanks in advance
Hello, hope I understand you well....with M2DC you can change the theme of your today screen and at the same time the background of all tabs is changed......
A transparent or glass clock is available.....see attached. Have not tried them myself.....check this thread...... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=566330
Not sure what you mean with Manila bar.....slider bar? Weather widget?
Many many Tanks!!! Clock it's ok now.
that's right: there are also mods for Manila bar & weather widget?
M2DC doesnt work out for me
All the things on the home screen are displayed in incorrect manner
Scattered in various places
Pls let me know how to resolve this
I even restarted after changing the M2DC settings but no use.
Have you disabled touch flow first?

Lock screen live wallpaper

Is there a tweak to enable live wallpapers for the lock screen? I've searched everywhere for this ability and nothing has come up. I think Live Wallpapers would actually be better on the locked screen than in their current form, behind widgets and icons/labels etc.
If not, anyone up for a project to facilitate this ability?
Set a transparent image for the lockscreen wallpaper.
All ROM's other than stock do this by default. I always see the default wallpaper, live or not on the lockscreen.
hmm, weird...
I made a transparent 480x800 .png image, but my lock screen is black[aside from the date and time etc].

Just setting a transparent wallpaper won't work. Has to be placed in the framework-res.apk.
