Weather Tab - SPB Mobile Shell - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Has anyone successfully integrated the weather from the HTC Home to display as a weather tab in SPB Mobile Shell? The default weather source in SPB is Gismeteo.ru and it is a terrible source. It's readings are constantly off by 3-4 degrees and the current conditions & forcast is far from accurate.
I have tried SPB Weather program and successfully installed it, but after several hours I could not get any custom templates to work. After searching I can see that people seemed to stop developing templates for this program at the end of 2007.
If no one has been able to integrate HTC Weather from the HTC Home, then does anyone know how to change the source of the weather information in SPB Mobile Shell?
Many thanks.

Any weather programs that provide a text forecast

Ive used both spb weather and Im currently using the sbsh pocket weather but neither one of these programs provided an actual text forecast. Im looking for something like 'Partly cloudy, evening showes possible. Chance of rain 45%. Tomorrow, sunny with a chance of rain'. Something like you see on the weather channel. Anyone know of a program that provides info like this?
I just have a shortcut to accuweather, and I access it when I want to know what the weather is going to be.
Here is the accuweather link to their PDA formatted forecast. Just replace xxxxx with your zipcode:

Weather Panel - use as stand alone app?

I am currently using a rom with touchflo2d built in and it has been great. But I miss using weather panel for its forecast and radars. Is there any way to make this a standalone app to access through programs instead of only on today screen? I've searched around and haven't been able to come up with anything any help is appreciated.
i would be interested in this also spb mobile shell weather never seems to work for me since i've been in the us so i'd like to use another program in to run with s2u2
there are weatherpanel forums that are independent of xda devs, try asking your q there and u might get an answer.
On my diamond I use "second today", Works great with battery status. It's around somewhere but i don't know how it is with non vga devices, can't see why it would make a difference though.
I am using a TILT with Hyperdragon III. I have Weather panel and battery staus on SecondToday.
Second Today worked
Thanks Uniqueboy and Mcfarlan........ secondtoday worked great, now it is one of my "programs" in touchflo2d. Even changed the icon in the .exe file to a weather icon so it looks proper..... thanks again
it's kind of sad that the weather panel skin by rumball isn't included in Manila 2D. they should've taken it.

Second Today Panel

Hi guys
I was wondering .. do u know if there is any way we can create a second "today" panel? ... I got so many cool programs and so much cool software now that it just doesnt fit on one screen anymore.
For example I would quite like to have one today panel which uses Resco contact manager spb weather windows live, calendar .. and another where I use maybe the bell interface or spb phonesuit, galarm etc.
any ideas if this is possible?
thanks
you know u could use one of the other SE Panels and disable all the extra stuff and just use all the rows for programs...
Maybe you should give second today a chance?

I have PDC clock, SPB Phone Suite, HomeScreen ++ and two rows of shoertcuts on one tab, Calendar + with 6 appointments on a second and SPB Weather and SPB time on a third.

SPB Mobile Shell - Weather widget of SBSH Pocket Weather?

I have used all weather apps for PPC and I have found the best one to be SBSH Pocket Weather. The real time updates and the forecats were most accurate and customizable. However the weather widget in SPB Mobile Shell is lame. Doesn't give me current temperature. Displays Rain as the current condition even though it's not even about to rain in 8 hours time.
I was wondering if there is a widget of SPB Mobile Shell. It's a great program but the lack of widgets and not being able to use today plugins is withdrawing a lot from it.
I also didn't find a good Tasks widget and the Time widget doesn't display the day in the way I would want it to.
Thanks

How to show many weather city in SPB mobile shell as Manlia

Hi Every,
Does anyone have solution to put different weather city as widget to SPB mobile shell? Mobile shell can get "SPB TIME" as widget to show many city time. But SPB weather can not, why? Please help.
Jack
I think you need to get SPB traveler for that. SPB traveler includes SPB weather and you can display the weather from many different cities with it.
why? To get you to pay more of course!
I just wish the mobile shell would display the current temp and let you choose from more sources. It's silly that they haven't worked this out considering the number of people griping about it since the earliest versions. I though 3.0 would fix it...then 3.5....still no joy. Good thing that weatherbug direct has a small cab that puts the current temp in your taskbar.
