So I bought the X1 last week and I have to say that I’m very impressed about it. I first didn’t know which one to choose: the X1 or Touch HD but after I had seen the HD…. It is just too big and therefore not practical anymore.
So after playing around with the X1 I have a couple of question and maybe you guys can help me. Until now I am not able to change my default weather location to a city which is not in the default list. When using the SPB panel I can choose my city but because most of the time I use the standard X1 panel I like to change it here also. Does somebody know if there is a fix/patch available for changing the default weather location to a city that is not in the list?
I also changed the default button actions where I changed the right button to contacts. However after using the TF3D panel for a while it is resetting the button settings to default when switching to the X1 panel again. Does somebody know is this is a bug in de TF3D panel?
I like to know if it is possible to permanent suppress the ‘making connection to gprs, 3G’ message when connection to internet. I don’t like the message because once an hour I connect to check my mail, update weather etc. and also use the ‘automatic disconnect after idle’ to save battery power.
Is there a way to change the default language of windows mobile without flashing the ROM? I heard there is a registry tweak for this but can’t find anymore info about this.
The last question I have is about the usb-pc connection setting. When I connect my girlfriends mobile (Touch Diamond) it every time asks if you want to use activesync or use it as a diskdrive.
I like to enable this option on my X1 also because now I every time have to go to settings to change the way the phone has to connect (active sync or diskdrive). I though this was a default feature of windows mobile but don’t have the checkbox to enable or disable this question. Does somebody know why?
I hope some of you can help me out with these questions.

The weather locations in the X1 panel is a hardcoded list in the SonyEricssonPanel.dll and CITY.dll files. They collect the weather data from AccuWeather.com so maybe by patching these files with a location that AccuWeather supports it is possible?

Ok, this doesn't sound like something I can do myself.
Do you mind to tell me how to set the auto-disconnect after idle? My X1 keeps the data connection open permanently after periodic mail checks etc... How to do it?

This is not a WM feature, it's a Diamond/TouchPro feature. But I also miss this too (having both a TP and X1) There have been a lot of Diamond features ported to the X1 so I too would appreciate anyone having found a way to include this.

You are right, this morning I discovered that is is a Diamond/TouchPro feature. I tried to install the htc usbtopc popup application found at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427956
After installing you will see the option that we are looking for. However when connecting the usb cable nothing happens. It still connects as you have specified under usb to pc settings. and is not coming with the question: activesync or diskdrive

I think this is because that cab file is just a pop-up which does not link to the actual required program/libraries. I read through the post you mentioned but could not see (for the time being) how it would work on the X1.
Thanks a lot. Unfortunately GPRS seems to suck at my cheapo provider today, so I couldn't quite verify it yet...
Hello all!
I started a new project named OpenCellClient. This application is a scanner for the open service http://www.opencellid.org. This project wants to create a complete database of CellID worldwide, with their locations.
This is very useful for a lot of things, working like a "second GPS", for devices without build in GPS receiver.
More than this, RemoteTracker (version 0.3.0-0 and above) can use this database when the GPS receiver could not find the signal, or if the device does not have this radio inside.
Thinking about the great help this project gives to us, I decide to contribute creating a client for Windows Mobile.
How it works? Start the application and go walk, drive or whatever you want do to outside. You GPS will be turned on and the software will scan for cell towers. Each tower found is stored with their coordinate. You don't need to stay connected to internet spending money transfering data to the opencellid website. You can send the collected data later, in your home, work or any wifi spot. After that, you can make searchs using opencellid web site. And we can't forget: this location will be used by RemoteTracker too.
If you want to give a try, please go to http://opencellclient.sourceforge.net and download the cab file.
Requirements:
- .NET CF 3.5;
- SQLServerCE 3.5.
Keep OpenCellClient up to date!
There is an integration with AppToDate. This application verify if configured softwares are up to date or not. If not, you are alerted, and invited to download the new version! Very cool and useful.
You can download AppToDate here.
After install AppToDate, please download and run OpenCellClient to configure AppToDate.
Try this and don't forget a new version never more!
--> It is a work in progress. In future versions I will make a lot more.

looks great thanks for the contribution! i'm getting ready to download it now.
I drive a lot and i'll be more than happy to contribute for France ID's
Very good
Please don't forget this is my first version and may have bugs. If you find one (or more, of course), let me know!
Cheers,
Joubert
Alas, I am not on GSM, but it is fantastic to see you continue to put out fantastic open-source code and tools. Keep up the great work... RT will be built into my ROM always!
Very nice! Will try it on my way to work.
Question: Will it continue to scan when I 'close' the applciation, i.e. put it in the background and use the phone for other tasks, like - äh - doing a phone call or, surfing the web, etc?
Another application using GPS in longer intervals to conserve the battery found out that the initial fixes after the GPS was powered up again (after 3 secs of no GPS usage, the GPS powers down) can be off a bit. I need to check what they did.

Ok, I found a small problem: Although WiFi is enabled and a cell is found, the 'Sent to OpenCellID' menu entry is grayed out.
Klaus
Question: Does the API actually give you the Cells 'in view' or only the cells the device is connected to? Because the first would only give you the cells of your provider and not those of competitors.
Although, I understand this would be out of your control, as it happens behind the scenes.
Klaus
How can I send the collected date to the website? This part is always grayed out and not selectable? Still a bug?

When I exit the app, WiFi gets disabled.
I do have the impression the app stops logging when send to the background, or when the device goes to sleep.
Furthermore my device reacts very sluggish when the app is running in the background.
I hope this feedback helps.

Hi!
This option would be grayed ONLY if your device is not a GSM device. I will release a new version without this rule. I think the test I did is not the same for all devices.

The API I used only show me the tower I'm connected. I didn't search for triangulation, but it would be a good idea.

Hi Klaus!
There is a debug option you can turn on. With this option the program create a txt file with debug information you could send to me.
Thank you for your tests

I have tested OpenCellClient and have found the following issues:
1. When I am closing the program with the x-Button (top right corner), OpenCellClient is still visible in the process list and use 1,74M of RAM (visible with TaskManager). When closing with the Exit-Button (down right corner) everything is fine. The process/application is not visible in the Taskmanager.
2. When closing the application the WiFi will be disabled also (already found by other users). The debug-Log does not say anything about WiFi.
3. When enabling WiFi (registry key: wifi) the application crashs after starting the scan process. I know that wifi is not yet enabled, but I have tried it .
I have also 2 wishes:
1. I can change the width of the columns, but after restarting the application I have to change the width again. It is possible to save the width of the columns ?
2. All new CellIds should be visible at the beginning of the list, not at the end.

kuzco
I have a little remark on the way it works.
Currently, when i click start, it opens the table with cell IDs, starts finding etc. Then i click Send and it brings me back to the welcome screen with the progress bar, ok. But after that i'm unable to go back to the table without stopping and restarting
I'd rather have some kind of tabs so i could swap between screens at will, if possible
Otherwise it worked fine, i sent around 50 different IDs today, no problems so far.

Hi All,
As requested, find attached weather sources for SPB weather.
There are two scripts below, one basic and one detailed. Instruction on how to use are in the the templates, so just open in notepad to view the 'how to'. I use the basic one, but have a play as you can go down to each states weather centres.
Weather is then sourced from www.weatherzone.com.au.
I take no credit for this script and a big thanks to recrem (from the now closed Mtekk forum) for updating a while back.
Enjoy,
Dev
Thanks for the good work. Good to see an Aussie Weather Source
Thanks again Dev,
Just downloading your weather files now (after trawling through whirlpool all morning looking for your post). I was happy using the one in SPB mobile shell until today... it forecasts 30 for today and it is much closer to 34... all the news channels were saying 34, so obviously they got their data from a more reliable source.
Works great with SPB Traveler, but has anyone made it work with the SPB panel's weather? It seems to take its data from Traveler when Traveler is installed, but if you select a custom city, the panel's weather screen just tells you that "No weather data has been downloaded".

There is no need to create a custom city (unless it's not in the list).
There are full instructions in the template file (open with notepad).
It is working fine for me... apart from a few issues with weather icons not showing up from time to time.

As I said, it works fine in SPB Traveler. Where it doesn't work is with SPB's custom X1 panel. The weather icon on its "Today" screen is just a sun with N/A where the temp should be. Tapping on that icon, which normally shows the next 4 days, has a message along the lines of "The weather data hasn't been downloaded.
I'm assuming it's because those scripts produce temperatures and icons in a slightly different format. Traveler can handle it but the Panel can't. It'd need someone with a bit more script nerdery than me to reformat those scripts to something the Panel's weather routine can read.

Yes, only SPB weather can read the scripts to display the correct icons. So if you don't have SPB weather loaded, its no good as Shell Panel doesn't work with it.

Revised Detailed Script to fix missing codes
Hi all,
It would seems weatherzone.com.au have now stopped displaying the city code number in the URL address as per the instruction in the template.
So I have modified the template so you can now get it to work if you don't know your suburbs code.
Instructions are at the top of the file, so just open with notepad and you'll be off and running.
Enjoy.

You have proved yourself yet again dev.
SPB Weather was giving me the #$%s on the weekend, but I was house hunting and didn't have time to play around with it.
Looks like you've done the job very nicely.
Thanks again
For reasons I can't begin to understand, it would seem the issues with SPB Traveler messing with the SPB Panel's weather are resolved by installing SPB Weather.
If I was being scientific about it, I'd see if it works in isolation without Traveler or if this new version of the script has anything to do with it. But I'm not.
So for now, the combination of Traveler + Weather + current script by TheDeva = correct weather now being displayed in the SPB Mobile Shell Panel. Some weather icons are N/A, but at least the temperature is correct and not 10 degrees out like it used to be. (What are these other websites using as the source of their information??)
Thankyou to 'thedeva' for the modified spb weather script... the programs now works and it gives the same forcasts that we get on ABC weather.. so that accuracy helps alot.
One thing I have noticed is that there is never an icon for the next days weather. e.g. today is tuesday, and there is no icon for wedneday's forcast. Tomorrow after I update, there will be no icon for the next day. I have Ballarat and Melbourne as the cities I watch, but neither will display the next day's icon using this template... when i go back to the default spb scripts all is good, just lousy weather forcasts...
I have looked at the script, but I can't see where the fault lies... any ideas please ?

Hi All,
I have read all the templates and comments and cannot get the weather to display correctly. I have mobile shell installed as well as SPB weather. The custom city of melbourne has been added with directions supplied by 'thedeva'. I get the dreaded N/A on the professional Now screen. Any ideas?
Thanks!

SPB v1.7 with Melbourne?
Hi guys,
I have SPB 1.7 (which is more lightweight than the current) and am trying to get it to work with the script.
It doesn't say in the script which "City Code Type" to use but I've tried all 3 (user defined, ICAO and GisMeteo.ru) with no luck.
I've set Custom City with "vic/melbourne/melbourne".
I get a "Error downloading data from site". I'm pretty sure I have connectivity as I see the HSPDA connection go and if it's in the crade the sync marks go (and other apps update).
Can anyone assist?
Cheers,
Gavan
I believe SPB Wather older than version 2 are obsolete and don't have any support/sources for them.
Thanks Orlesi - can anyone else also confirm it won't work with v1.7? I've been deliberately running the older version for a smaller simpler lightweight forecaster.

Yep.
The custom template is for 2.0 on only. It's still a little buggy though.
I've come late to this, so hopefully someone is still monitoring it. I installed the script and my forecast now comes from the BOM. The only part I didn't understand when reading through the script is how to get the Mobile Shell widget to display the weather. I simply get N/A. Is this by design and unavoidable, or is it possible to fix it?
More importantly, my current temperature seems to be wrong. It seems to still be getting that part from the 'Default Source', even though I've disabled that. It's 37 degrees here today right now, and Weatherzone agrees. But SPB Weather is showing only 31, which is the temperature the 'Default Source' thinks it is. Also, when I tap the current temperature, it says the 'location' is 'Adelaide Intl', which again is the location of the 'Default Source', not the Weatherzone source. So even though I've set Weatherzone as default, and all the long range forecasts seem to be using it and are correct per the BOM site, the current temperature seems to be sourcing from the standard SPB Weather 'Default Source' still, even though I've said 'Don't use this source' (and under sources, it shows as 'This source is not used'). Is there something I need to change in the script to get it to display the current weather from the weatherzone source?
Sorry if I've missed something obvious.
EDIT: Please forgive me, I realised that I had used the default city in SPB weather, which I think is why I was getting the Default Source data for the current temperature. I set up a custom city and it seems to not be be drawing from the default source now. Except now, there seems to be no current temperature. Well, the field is there, but it's actually only showing the forecasted maximum there, not the actual temperature. When I tap it, all I see are the forecasted maximums, no data for when the reading was taken. I'll keep looking but if anyone has any idea why this is happening, I'd appreciate your input. I see there is something written about exactly this behaviour in the script, but I can't work out if that's just saying 'that's how it is' or whether there is a way to fix it? Sorry for being such a noob!
Over the last few days or so, this weather template seems to have stopped working. I suspect that there have been modifications on the weatherzone.com.au website. If anybody has managed to fix the template, I would much appreciate it

Yep. I have found the same thing. Today is the last date for which data was downloaded and I guess that it was downloaded about 7 days ago. Without a fix I guess I will be forced to use a US source which will in fact render SPB Weather useless.
For the record I found that this one (http://www.pdagold.com/themes/detail.asp?t=16497) still works at least for Melbourne but it doesn't provide detailed weather the way the weatherzone one used to.
Hello,
I am trying to add a user defined city to the HTC weather widget app on the HTC Incredible. I know that it gives you weather for your current locations, but i would like to know what the weather is at my father's house (Mathews VA) which is 300 miles away. The closest city in the default list is newport news, or richmond, which just isn't right. Or for another example, the closest city on the default list to christiansburg is not even Roanoke VA, it's probably Richmond. Anyways, you can see how the ability to add cities to the database would be beneficial.
As a reference, my previous phone was the Touch pro 2 and i used JVH3 weather editor http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=546141 and/or methods like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=523698&highlight=weather+city+editor to add cities that are not in the default HTC database (this worked on the windows mobile TP2 - but obviously not on android). I cannot seem to find a way to do this on the HTC incredible (or on any other android phone for that matter). If anyone has come across this problem and found a solution, i would really appreciate it.
Thanks for your help
I second that request
I also had a TP2 and still do, but on my DINC would love to know the weather at the house 500 miles away. When I am there (Tuscumbia alabama) it shows up but I can not find a way to save the location, and it is not in the list either.
Adding cities to DB does not work
I was able to locate the database of cities and add new entries. However, when the new entries where selected in the widget, AccuWeather refused to return data for the new entries. It appears that HTC may be using an interface to AccuWeather that tells them it is coming from a phone and AccuWeather will only respond to approved cities. My new entries were identical to existing entries and I was able to select the new cities but they would not work. Thus my conclusion that there is an issue with the interface to AccuWeather. For anyone wanting to try some more, the db is located at: /data/data/com.htc.provider.weather/files/WP_0409WWE.db The file is in SQLLite format

Thank you for this tip.
It’s working just fine! I used the SQLite Administrator 0.8.3.2 (PC)
The biggest challenge I had was to copy the WP_0409WWE.db to my PC.
With the help of Root Explorer it finally worked.
After editing the WP_0409WWE.db with my locations, The location codes I get from the AccuWeather gadget for Vista/Windows 7, I’ve copied it back to my Android phone, Rebooted it and everything is working fine!
Now we need a on phone app to be able to edit these just like the WM devices have.

Here you are
I am very interested in doing this because my town cannot be searched for in the widget, it only pops up if I am in the exact right spot. I have downloaded root explorer and the sq editor and located the WP files. I assume I need to open the Accuweather program on my pc. What do I need to do next? How do I enter the code for my town on the phone so I can actually search for it?
Anybody? Just need to know what I'm looking for
So, just edit "WP_0409WWE.db" - and all will be ok? I have same problem - my city isn't in list.
One question - is it possible to create an app to edit "WP_0409WWE.db" on the phone that doesn't have root?
I don't want to root my phone. By now.
No, you need root access to edit the file.
two months now and we don't have any news about the editor for default weather widget. Does someone know if there is a project which deal with this issue. I am not rooted and I want to add new cities in the default weather and until now I cannot do it except if I root my device.
Any news?
thanks in advance

There's nothing we can do about this. You need to root in order to change the cities. It's a hard requirement.
I was able to add cities into the weather database. It's quite simple. I followed the instructions in this post. Thanks to all who contributed to this post.
Hey guys! Out in the Leo thread is the perfect weather widget that we have. The only problem is that its a HUGE data hog!!
The original developer might have abandoned the project, and us users are left trying to make it right.
The problem is that the weather update script is called based on conditions no one really knows. I have personally seen that data is accessed on anyof the following conditions:
The weather widget is pressed manually
The device wakes up from sleeping
