How to customize weather database - HTC Vox

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.

MiniWeather for the VOX

Hey guys... just released a new chome weather version that should work with the VOX also. Can somebody give it a shot ?
I can't seem to get it to install,
Installation was unsuccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions.
I'm using version 3 of Zeeshee ROM.
Cheers,
Same for me! Same rom. Btw, both weather progs delete my clock icon and blackscreen is not possible to load. (mini with dr.gonzo 6.1 rom)
Everything works!
Extract from cab all files for Windows directory and place them into the device.
Delete this files from cab and save cab.
Modify cab working.
Works brilliant .. Thanks a lot keep it up ... i like the background on the pictures what you post there . it will be great if you send it as well . cheers
I'm being stupid here.

Can someone upload the modified cab please.
Thank you.
Unzip attached file.
Copy files from 'Windows' (archive) to 'Windows' (device).
Copy cab to device and run it.
Reboot.
Enjoy!

Thank you it works perfect now.
Got it to work, sort of, so please help.
weather.yahoo.com gives me NLXX001 as code
Doesn't seem to do anything
(And so is c>f not working)
Are we still using weather.yahoo.com as source?
I had already installed the original MiniWeather on my on my vox (Orange E650) and all was OK except that in portrait mode the weather image didn't show on the clock tab whereas it did in portrait mode. So I decided to install the vox version to see if it would be fixed.
Unfortunately I've found that the files can't be copied over to the device's Windows folder because Resco says they already there as read-only files in ROM and therefore cannot be overwritten. So after installing the 1.0b CAB I get the following error when I initially select options:
Unknown command: "nu=timestamp"
Line 13(\program files\nrg\chomeminiweather\SetOptions.mscr):nu=TimeStamp()
Is there anything that can be done? Would the clock/weather Image have been fixed anyway? If not I'll revert to the previous version
Thanks and nice program !!!
can someoene post a home screen to show how this should look. Its messed up on mine i believe I get 2 panels - the first one works but the image is messed up. The second one says "forecast" but in there it just says "push centre button to update, push right softkey marked options to set your options"
I had trouble copying the two chome files to the windows directory - it said I didnt have permission to copy them.
can anyone assist ?
Frottage........ It sounds like you've had a similar problem to mine above.
If you can't copy the files over the install doesn't work properly.
I've reverted to the non-Vox version and all now seems OK on my Orange E650 with Dr.Gonzo's 5.2.19195 Rom
Try using the Resco Explorer trial to copy them across. It's because the files it's trying to replace are in ROM. Resco worked on my Dr. Gonzo E650.

HTC Home Plugin Help

Dear All.
I am using HTC Home Plugin v.2.10 which allows to modify tab quantity.
I am very pleased with this verison. It's working fine, ecept brigthness function, but there is a solution for it, I don't need it, because I don't use to change brightness from HTC Home.
I need only to change Install Directory on this verison. It's not possible. After changing default install directory from /HTCHome to /Program files/HTC Home nothing appears on the screen. I have tried to make soft reset several times, but no result.
Who can change default install directory /Program files/HTC Home
for HTC Home 2.10?
Please...
I am attaching cab file to this message.
Thanks in advance.
you can unpack it using Package Creator and then repack it using the same app or CeCabManager
Thanks, I will try ...
Didn't work. Same problem.
If change install directory to /Program files/HTC Home the Application HTC Home doesn't appear on the device screen...
how did you initially change the installation directory?
I have never changed installDIR before. I used ready cab file.
But I don't like when programs(software) are installing to other directories. I like to see all the software on Progam Files folder.

I have changed installdir with help of Win CE Cab Manager.
On the files selected all files which were on /HTCHome directory and changed to /Program Files/HTC Home
It seems that it was not enough, it's needed to change some other setting but which settings I don't know.

Add cities

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?

[Q] mms settings, custom xml file

I've been struggling to get my mms setting configured for a year now with no luck. I have a LG Optimus 7 from 2010 pdc conference.
I'm trying to configure mms settings for the carrier Viaero (small nebraska/colorado carrier). The settings i need are defined at http://viaeronetops.blogspot.com/
The device is ChevronWP7 unlocked. and Interop Unlocked.
I've tried all the suggestions out there, set ADC (no luck), select the provider xml in mfg - Set network profiles (no luck, need different settings). Lg Network Setup app (doesn't list the carrier settings i need)
I've come to the conclusion i need to copy a custom xml config file to the phone then select the xml file in mfg - Set network profiles. I believe i have created the xml config file i need (see attached file) based off of the post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1022833&highlight=mms+settings&page=3
Now how to get the file to the phone. I have windows phone device manager 1.8 from TouchExperience installed. I can copy the file to \My Documents but not to \Windows. The file never shows up in the mfg - Set network profiles. Do i need to copy the file to \Windows (How do i do this) or can i select the file that i copied to \My Documents a different way.
I've seen other paces that say to use Wp7UsbStorageEnabler.exe to show you phone in explorer, tried this but i only see a single directory, tried copying the file into the directory, no luck.
Please help this is really my only complaint about wp7 and would really like to get this solved.
To sum it up, how do i copy a custom carrier xml confg file to the phone and select it.
thanks
scott
I've been trying to get copy files to work using DiagProvXML (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1238519&highlight=provxml) but i can't get any file copies to work.
Is this because of the LG phone?
Are there special steps i need to use. Currently i'm using
-File Operations
-Click the + symbol
-Click save provxml
-Go back to the main screen provxml
-Click the save icon at the bottom of the screen
I get no errors but the file operation never works.

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

Also while the app's internal update mechanism is broken, we can update manually, here is the most recent currency database file :
https://www4.bcb.gov.br/Download/fechamento/20180927.csv
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!
