Does anybody know how to add new cities on weather tab?. I want to add mine in Spain. I tried to use the editor for Diamond 1 but doesn´t work on D2.
Tanhs a lot.

Add your own city to weather tab:
Credit to turnstar
1. Copy 2330fc3c_manila from your windows directory onto your PC
2. Download SQLite Administrator.
3. Download WeatherDatabaseEditor 1.2 and install to your device (you won't actually be using this but it adds a reg key that is essential to making this work. (I'm not sure what it adds but this is what the orig instructions I read said to do))
4.Open the manila file using SQLite Administrator on your PC (make sure you select all files when trying to open or it wont show up) then select the "Edit Data" tab and highlight cities in the tree on the left, all you gotta do now is pick a city you'd never use and edit the CityName, Country and accuweathercode to match the city you plan to add.
5. Place the edited copy of 2330fc3c_manila into your windows directory and soft reset the device.
6. Go into the TF3D weather tab and select your city from the list (this will also add your city to the calender tab)

Thanks. It's work for me.

Yesss!. Works very well. Thanks a lot.

Oh yesss works a treat. Had to install Total Commander to transfer the edit file back to the Windows Folder though as the standard File explorer wouldn't let me do it.

Another intuitive TF3D configuration option from HTC

Worked also for me on my TD2, but i didn't use the WeatherDatabaseEditor version 1.2, instead of that i also installed Total Commander on my phone. With Total Commander i just copied the edited "2330fc3c_manila" file from the memory card to the \Windows directory off the phone.

Looking at the Cab file for WeatherDatabaseEditor, the only registry change it makes is:
HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\Weather.ServerURLOverride="http://weather.not2advanced.com/htcweather/forecastdata.php?ac=XDADevs&locCode=%25ls&version= 1&device=innovation"
Just thought I'd point that out for those who will end up making a Cab file to install the weather modification as needed when re-flashing instead of installing unnecessary software again.

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong - but there's no way to overwrite the original file with the edited one. All I'm getting is 'The original file is in ROM and cannot be replaced'. I'm doing it via Resco Explorer. Any suggestions?

Many Thanks,

Got it
Just change the Local Time (on the clock tab click on time) and set your local citie as you want

Finally
Thank you so much for this thread. I finally managed to add my home town . Great.

Don´t you think guys that manila is little bit slower when u add your "own" city?

Select your city, from the long URL in the address bar, its after the "&loccode="
E.G: "EUR|UK|UK241|LONDON" from the below:
Code:

How to customize weather database

Hello all.
Greetings.
I am using FB 6.5 rom. I am currently located in gangtok, india, so there is no weather option for that city. got the location code which is ASI|IN|IN030|GANGTOK, but I am not able to edit the HTC weather file in Windows folder. I used CE Total Commander to change the attribute of the weather database file but in vain.
Is there any other editor which I can use to edit the windows file on my HTC S710?
Thanks.

Here you go.
BTW, the modified file will only work if FB is using a modified dll, but you will see if it's working.
Just replace the file with the one froom me after you modified it.

Hi,
Thank you for the quick response.
I added two entries in the table referring to the location given in http://www.accuweather.com.
The locations are:: Darjeeling, IN;ASI|IN|IN036|DARJEELING;India and Gangtok, IN;ASI|IN|IN030|GANGTOK;India
However when I try to update the weather choosing the entered location that is Darjeeling IN or Gangtok IN it, it says attempting to download data.... and after sometimes it says Unable to retrieve date for selected city.
Is there anything I am doing wrong?
Please suggest.

Also repplace this file!

Hello.
I have placed the "WeatherUpdateService.zip" file in the windows folder still I am not getting the weather update.
After I placed this file "WeatherUpdateService.zip". I guess I am facing another issue, coz I am not able to change to another city from the list.
When i select another city, it stays is the pervious selected one.

You have to unzip it....

HI frauhottelmann. Thanks for being so kind. Actually I have unzipped and place the containing file. Once I place that file I was unable to switch between cities.
thsnks.

Create oemavatar.cab , what program to use?

HI all !!
I came up with a new idea to create a file oemavatar.cab for Toshiba TG01. I made graphics in PNG format and then it tried to pack them into a CAB file. Now I am looking for a program where I could make a CAB file and add it to the ROM.
I found some programs, but the archives are not compatible with WP7 and Zune just does not detect the file.
My question is: Which program to use to execute the cab file?

You have to use a CAB sender program to send the CAB file to the phone's update OS (the one that Zune switches the phone to when installing updates; you can put it in that mode manually too). You don't use Zune with manual updating.
I don't know what structure to the CAB file the phone expects (although you could download an official CAB and have a look for yourself). You will probably need to sign the CAB with a key whose certificate is loaded into your ROM; I know there are programs for doing this but not all ROMs are updatable.

Thanks for quick reply
I know how to use the CAB SENDER
I just meant that if I add the oemavatar.cab is an application ZUNE should show a picture that is in that file ... if you connect phone to the PC .
If I add the original cab of Omnia 7 (OEM / ZUNE_PIC) ZUNE shows the picture of the Samsung ... if I add my cab file , zune does not show what's there ...
as if the program can not read information from a cab file
I enclose two cab files ...

I found a solution

You should post it! That way, future people with the same or similar goals don't have to post another request for help, they can just search and find it.

Help with Currency Converter Small App ( com.sony.smallapp.currency)

Hey all,
This "small app" has recently become broken because the source for the currency file's URL has changed.
When the app is newly installed, it pops an error at first launch:
"Unable to download currency file. Please try again later".
It broke around mid-july 2018.
What I'm looking for is the latest available currency file so that the program can at least work (even if it can't update).
It should be located at:
Android/data/com.sony.smallapp.currency/files/
If someone could kindly .zip and upload the "files" folder here, it would be majorly helpful.
Thanks.

i think is that the data to work again

I think is the data to work..i hope work again

Thanks much for your reply stathis, sadly that doesn't fix it.
If your device is rooted, could you copy and upload the following folder as well:
/data/data/com.sony.smallapp.currency/
I believe something in the .xml changes when the soft has successfully downloaded the .csv file by itself.
Thank you.

This is only found ..i hope work

Thank you again for your help!

Here's how to update manually:
1. Download the newest .csv file from: https://ptax.bcb.gov.br/ptax_internet/consultarTodasAsMoedas.do?method=consultaTodasMoedas
2. Delete the old .csv file and copy the new .csv file in:
Android/data/com.sony.smallapp.currency/files/
3. Disable WiFi, then launch Currency Converter app. It'll detect and use the newest .csv
4. Done!

[TOOL][WIN] ROM Explorer - Browse Android ROM Files

ROM Explorer
From time to time I need to extract some files from various Android ROMs. So far I downloaded the ROM file and then started to search for further tools to extract files from the downloaded ROM. If all went well I ended up with an image I could open with ext4_unpacker to finally extract the files I needed. This whole procedure took a lot of time, involved tools from unknown sources and often simply didn't work. So I decided to create my own tool.
ROM Explorer can directly open the following files:
zip archives with img or new.dat entries
Samsung md5 archives
Sony ftf archives
Huawei update.app archives
img/ext4 image files
lz4 image files (used by Samsung)
sin fies (used by Sony)
In case you have a file which is not supported let me know. Maybe I find the time to add support. Or simply add it yourself - ROM Explorer is Open Source.
Usage
Download the installer and run it or build your own version with Visual Studio 2017.
Start the executable. You will see a window similar to ext4_unpacker. In the first line you select a file, in the second line you can choose an archive entry if the file is an archive file.
Loading a file or archive entry can take a significant amount of time and disk storage. ROM Explorer may need to create temporary files with several gigabytes. A fast flash disk helps a lot!
You can extract files or folders by dragging and dropping them to Windows Explorer.
Downloads
ROM Explorer 0.9
ROM Explorer 0.9.1
Thanks To
ROM Explorer would not exist without the distributed knowledge of this forum. Especially I want to thank worstenbrood, Androxyde, IgorEisberg for their work.
So I'm waiting for your comments - but be patient it may take some time for me to react

Reserved for whatever purpose...

Wew
Let me try and report you back

Thank you I will try this out. Thanks too for making it open source

0.9.1 should fix this. Be sure to first uninstall before installing 0.9.1.

After hours of google search and downloading countless apps that dont work I found this. This app is legit and works on windows 10 64bit. Thank you for your work.

Your app is GREAT! Thanks for sharing it.
Edit: Answered my own question. Windows 10 tip "Run As Administrator" and dont drag files "to the desktop" but instead to an Explorer window.

Can this program find the differences between compiled ROMs?
I ask this question because Xiaomi on the Mi 9 released an initial kernel with sourcecode that was changed over time without updating the GitHub https://github.com/MiCode/Xiaomi_Kernel_OpenSource/tree/cepheus-p-oss and because of this change, the ROMs have something different between how they connect to the cameras. The old ROM versions (4/1/2019 and before) connect fine to the cameras, but post that date, a custom kernel built from the GitHub source will fail to connect to the cameras. Since the change has not been made open source on GitHub, there has to be another way to find and patch new kernel builds in order for them to work. Would your software be able to extract these changes? If not, do you have any other ideas which may? Much appreciated.
