I use MARSWARE Weatherpanel 2.5 trail version
http://www.marware.net
It works perfectly on my Wizard SPV M3000 (by orange france).
You can choose several cities, use cycle display, change themes, icon set, and the layout. By default, this software contains several themes, layout,...
The data update can be done by automatical connection programmed or by ask if you don't have data edge connection (Wifi and Activesync for me).
It supports the PDA proxy settings (useful for weather update during working times).
I searched through a lot of these weather forecast software and I'm having problems with most of them because I stayed in a 'small' city in UK, and most of the software just doesnt have my city in the chart.
So, can you check if this has the city "Exeter" in its list?

Yes, it is in the list. This WeatherPannel is the most complete. Give it a try. It´s fabulous. Tou can download satellite images with each city and lots of information. Very accurate

i agree with you. it's the best weather plugin, it has animated icons and it is very functional
anyone got a download link for the .cab?

I used to use the Marsware one as well on my old X50v. Then when I got my Vario I decided to try SPBWeather instead - might not have the fancy animations but takes up much less space than MarsWare. SPBWeather still has multiple city support and manual or auto updates for retrieving weather info.
I found a great template for it that grabs weather direct from the www.bbc.co.uk/weather and so you can find 99.9% of all UK towns and cities. It also supports other countries as well.
PC Install or PDA Cab : http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/weather/download.html?en

SPB Weather - BBC
I have just tried this, installed the app and downloaded the BBC weather 1.2 templates.
All I get is "Error downloading data from site", but it has definately been downloading some data.
I followed the instructions, word for word and they were accurate - but no weather.
Does anyone have any ideas... is it reallt WM5 compatible?

I mentioned in my post that I'm using it on my Vario so yes it does work on WM5.
Have you unzipped the templates and put them into...
\program files\spb weather\templates
...and added them to the programs like the instructions described?
Also, what city/town code are you trying? Let me know and I'll try it on my Vario.

I'd quite like a free or "free" UK weather plugin. I fear one doesn't exist, however. If anyone can assist, please reply (or PM )
Thanks

Meschle posted this one in here earlier...
http://www.sompy.com/sweather.html
...but strangely his post has disappeared. I've not personally tried that app so I don't know what it's like - but give it a shot
Hmm I noticed that, I assumed it was because the screenshot was American, so it did only UK weather, but a quick check shows that it says "around the world". The only other thing however is that it says
CPU: Intel Xscale
Does that mean it won't work at all, or just really badly on the Mini S? Mine is slow enough as it is without being any slower!
edit: I guess i found out myself. I tried to install and when confirming on the XDA, it said "Space Required: 1kb" which obviously isn't right, and nothing has appeared on my device at all. Damn
Well i tried MARSWARE Weatherpanel 2.5, however i have two issues with it; Firsty, it seems to really slow my MDA down and when i pull the keyboard out it takes much longer to flip the screen. Secondly, it has installed a strange hard to read font which Opera has seems to have adpoted to start using in its a address bar etc.
Anyone else has any of the probems or know a fix/tweak?
I have spb weather on mine it works great. I liv ein a small town in the south east UK and I simply did a search on weather.com for the code to enter and created a custom city in the software with this code and downloaded the weather.com forecast.
I highly recommend this for any UK dwellers as it works perfectly and weather.com covers the whole uk in pretty good detail.

yup
i found it quite well too
but now i switched to the SBSH PocketWeather as it contain more downloadable details. eg, satellite pics, wind speed, atm pressure, humidity, wind phetch in the today screen.
i think this sw is more suitable for someone who want the program looks more professional
btw, i m in kent too =)

Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. Just downloaded the 15 day trial of this and SPBs equivalent, no contest.
Marsware WeatherPanel is easily the best.
Is it possible to make a cab just for the htc weather only? I would like to install just the weather app as a standalone today plugin rather than the full htc home. Thanks
May not be the perfect solution but why not just disable all other tabs in the today settings. Then it only displays weather?

I'm trying to avoid having to install the HTC home to begin with because it coflicts with my customized today skin... Im assuming this is already a dead issue since I couldnt get any answers. Thanks for the effort
I would love to have HTC Weather as a standalone program for my XPERIA
I would pay a resonable fee, to get this done.
Thank you,
MTWIZARD
let me know where i can get thanks
Fizz software hase a great weather software.
I contact them last week to know if there were skins for there software, and they told me they should change the appearance of the ppc version to look like the iphone version.
... look's pretty promising !
Check out there web site :
http://www.fizzsoftware.com/products/weather/weather.html
SBSH PocketWeather has even a skin that looks like the iPhone weather app.
Check their forum
there is one for wp, but like the iphone weather itself, is boring and limited compared to other wp themes out there.
also, you are not likely to find it here. try weather panel forum.
Another suggestion might be to just by Iphone .....

I believe someone created a weather app called iWeather. Do a search for it.
There is also iALTWeather which is customisable....

does anyone know of a good weather app to use with iFonz? free or not, doesnt matter. i just want to kno which is the best or iphone look-a-like or so. if it doesnt look like iphone like software.... if its better, then it doesnt matter. thx in advance. anyone info?
Weather Watcher is free and is excellent for being free, or use SPB Weather or SPB Traveler. Weather Watcher basically is a window that will retrieve data from PIE, but gives you extra tabs to show, day, week, radar, alerts. SPB Traveler gives weather but also has a list of tools that most find handy. SPB Weather is weather, haven't really ever seen/used used it.
THX SO MUCH for the speedy reply, great info, and short round up review of these programs. u have been a big help since im so undecisive and didnt know just yet how where to start. its been deeply appreciated. thx!!
No problem , enjoy!
Hi all,
I would like to know if it could be possible to have an app able to update automatically our position in the manila weather tab in using the last GPS coordinate knows.
In that way we could have weather information everywhere without touching our diamond.
...and it would be fantastic if the weather tab could show current local time for the locations too
I can dream....but I dont even know if that is possible
