I installed teh touch today plugin, but when I was going to sellect my city it was not in the list. Then I tried the same as alanp23 sugested in: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=310661&highlight=accuweather
I allso tried to change the settings directly in the registry, but still no luck...
Tried to type the same as alan23 (<city name="Helsinki, FI" locationcode="EUR|FI|FI002|HELSINKI"/>) and it worked fine, but when I type in my location in Norway "EUR|NO|NO007|SUNNDALSØRA" I get "Unable to retreive data for selected city" I allso tried other cities in Norway, but got the same error...
Someone who got a tip?
MOD EDIT: Please post in the proper place and don't start a new post until you've at least read through the first page. I found these three different posts in the Wizard Mobile 6 child forum and NONE of them had anything to do with Windows Mobile 6 in particular.
did you try editing the xml file instead?
Weather for HTC Home plug-in (Merged from 3 separate threads)
Hi All,
I have just put together a .xml file for the New HTC Touch Today plugin's weather feature! This file contains UK Citys Only, just thought it would come in useful, just copy it into your Windows directory on your device and away to go! Please make a backup of your existing file.
Also does anyone know how to change the Temperature measurement from fahrenheit into degrees celcius? The options button on the today menu screen in control panel is greyed out.
Thanks
AJ.
When selecting the citie you want, you have options, and this is explained in other thread.
A lot's of threads about the weather panel are being created because lots of people don't search before post!
Yes, as "alanp23" suggested.
After I wrote my post I read that some people allso had problems adding smal cities... Strange
thanks and Doh!, i did search but could not find any threads which told me how to change it, but thanks anyway.

What about the weather for areas with no location code such as smaller cities in the US?

You can use regions of states, but smaller cities don't. That's the same all arround the world, not only for the US.

How can change weather Unit for HTC Home plug-in
hi all
i installed HTC Home which have weather panel.
the question is: is there any way to change the unit from Fahrenheit to centigrade !!
Tap where city is listed then menu in lower right corner then weather options
I don't know about centigrade (never heard of)
But for Celsius go to:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\HTCHome\Weather\Settings]
Create a new DWORD-Value called "Celsius" value "1"
Vi

Andrew - thanks for the file - saved me a lot of bother. BTW I have read numerous posts about messing with the registry. I found the UI easier. When you select the city in the dialogue box use the menu command in the bottom right then select weather options - its a radio button selection - so much for the geeks solutions

Thanks for the hint.
Centigrade & Celsius are the same. Centigrade was widely used in the past, but not anymore.

personaly i find the only show 1 days weather like the default touch plugin seem to do kinda useless unless you work underground and cant look out the window
it's what tomorrow and the day after brings that i wanna know about
SPB Weather is the one I have gone back to time and time again, although saying that I don't currently use it.
The problem I find is that whatever it says changes from morning to afternoon since weather is so unpredictable.
Now I simply use weather plugins on www.google.com/ig and view that on Opera.
I'm still using PocketWeather with the radar images configured on my Today Screen. I have two images for each city -- one regional and one local so I know what's coming during the day and how long it will take for anything showing on the regional radar to get here. I also have it set to update weather conditions and radar images every 15 minutes so the info is always up-to-date. . . wouldn't leave home without it.
Hi!
Am in Goa at the moment and want to use the Weather part of HTC Home... yet I cannot find any of the major cities for the state of Goa listed in the HTC Home Weather settings.
There are many Indian cities shown (including Mumbai, where I was last week), yet I do not know which one to use for Goa; not even the capital of Goa is on the list!
Can any Indian users check the HTC Home Weather city list and tell me which city is closest to Calangute, or anywhere in Goa?
I promise that doing so will positively increase your karma
/me having fun in sunny Goa (32 deg C all week!)
Turns out there is a standalone app that lets one add custom weather entries...
http://electrogeek.com/blog/2008/04/10/free-htc-home-customizer-for-wm6/
Goan' to try it now!
Unfortunately even after using the editing app, the info is still not found.
No reason why, and the devs are quiet.
Anyone here use HTC Home weather in Goa?
I have problem with Manila Weather.
Today in the morning i updated manila weather - everything is ok, temputere etc, but there is no sun only moon (like at night). All my locations has the same "bug". Moon is also on a new locations, which I added. In my location is almost 12 am.
I deleted forecast_cache.db file and it didn't help.
Is it sth wrong with my phone/soft or with this weather service?
I have hd2 3 months and this happened first time.
funny same for me today i upload every hour and still the moon !!
cannonbal, I think this is a problem with the service, not with our phones....
But, i dont know if the weather will be fixed by itself or we will have to do something.
I live in poland.
Does anyone have such problem?
Same for me in Austria.
Don´t worry, must be a bug in the external weather-server and can´t be corrected on HD2. Maybe a time-code is transmitted wrongly.
Let´s see if it is still the same in a couple of days then we´ll have to contact HTC service to check the weather data provider service if they didn´t got to it already.
Best You change to Dunc´s and Davej´s DDT-Weatherpanel Ultimate 2 threads above ir´s the best and most reliable weather app You can have on this planet.
This is a global issue!! Some server problem just like My Location couldn't be updated last time and now fixed. So not your phone's own problem.
Thx for your answers!
Fixed today!!
Same happens here in my case.It seems that Accuweather is the most unreliable service...Does anyone knows how to change weather provider in manila?

It´s not possible without changing the weather application itself
Same here sun at night moon during the day lol but hey they'll sort it out.
I bought weatherbug elite since it has way more features and a city list that comes in handy.
My HTC sensation arrived yesterday, however after the 2.3.4 update I seem to have some weird issue.
While the gps is super precise in finding my location the meteo (which if i got that right works using the the wifi) seems to find a whole different area. The plan was to overcome the issue by setting my own location on the widget which unfortunatly is not present in the device archive (Alessandria Italy).
Is there a chance to add it ?
The location updates correctly if I decide to use only the GPS to determine my location, it works perfectly with the meteo application but the widget (the clock one) does NOT work with wireless location deactivated.
It would just be a lot easier I could add my own city to the database using weather codes, isnt there a way to do so?
