Hi,
in SBP mobile shell's weather preferences it's possible to see when the data was last updated. However, since I work in an EMP-protected area i have no reception during my working-hours, so the application can't connect to 3G and update this data.
The presented time for the last update is always the last time the application tried to update, not when it actually succeeded.
Is there any way to correct this? Perhaps I should issue this as a bug to the developers?
Does anybody know how long the TRIAL of SpB Weather lasts???

Spb weather is not working, i have a msg on my today screen saying; "no data to show, probably wrong date"
any ideas on whats the cause; problem..?
thanks to all...for any ideas..., i miss my spb...!
Try downloading the new version from the spb-site....works fine for me
Cheers
Ok in new versions of SPB weather there is a problem of getting weather data for some countries/cities, and even they are explaining how to solve this problem manually (by downlaoding some specially written data files from some other website). I am personally using SPB Weather which is not the new because I dont want to be bother to setup cities data files manually, I have just switch-on 4 cities and the software has automatically taken their resourses.
My version 1.1.1
Latest ver: 1.6.2 (I haven't tried this one yet) http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/weather/support_articles28.html?en

Can anyone recommend a good, simple, customizable weather plugin for the Today screen? I've been using HTC Home, but it takes up too much room on the screen.
There's always Spb Weather:

I think it's been discussed a few times on the forum.

Thanks, mrlease! I had tried SBP Weather, but couldn't get it to work. Weather to Go does what I need it to do, and the price is certainly right. (Though I would have paid for SBP the other day if it had worked.)
Thanks again!
OK, maybe I spoke too soon. Weather to Go works fine, but it has limitations. It doesn't appear to update over a cellular connection (ActiveSync or WiFi only), and it doesn't show current conditions.
So, I guess I'm still searching. Again, SPB didn't work for me (couldn't get it to connect), so that's not an option.
You might try: http://www.sbsh.net/products/pocketweather/. It is cheaper than SPB by $5. I heard it has a smaller memory footprint than SPB, but I can not vouch for that. I tried it and liked it, but decided I could just use weather on mobile google.

I like SPB shell as well. I flash so much though that Ive gotten to where I dont even bother putting it back on. It's a pain to keep settting back up. The weather for my city though never seems to be even close to what it is. I have just found Marsware WeatherPanel. Seems decent enough. Still taking any other suggestions though.
Fizz Weather?

I'm using WTG with WM6. I can update the weather through my data connection, wireless or ActiveSync. You might be confused when you look at the detailed weather drop-down for a city. The update date and time shown is the last time that NOAA updated the information for that city. BTW, most weather programs only give you a simple graphic with the high and low temperatures,
I really like WTG because I travel through connecting cities and it gives me a look-ahead for potential weather delays for multiple cities. Having to update manually is a small price to pay.

I tend to agree here. SPB weather was very inaccurate for me. Sometimes it would be as much as 10 degrees off. They use some weather source that is based in germany by default I believe I heard. There are user made weather sources that seemed to work better, but they were a pain in the neck to weed through, install, and configure in my opinion. SBSH's pocketweather worked great for me. But I ended up just using either the web or googlesms for weather. I'm in Dunbar, WV USA.
try weatherpanel 2.5
www.marsware.net.
The software is now free so you don't need to purchase. Its customisable and can have animated icons. I used with no problems but now use htc home.
I went back to SPB Weather, because I don't like how SBSH weather shows the detailed information, besides, for unknown reasons made my virtual page (I use WAD) really slow, changed to SPB again and everything works ok now.
PS: Nothing against SBSH, I moved from SPB Diary to PocketBreeze.

we can't help you unless you help us with what rom...radio....ect
I have the same problem. I added my city (Boxmeer, The Netherlands) to my list after installing some cab (Boxmeer isn't in the standard list).
It does display today's weather, but if you tap the 5 day forecast, nothing happens... and the weather tab kind of freezes.
ROM: 1.93.404.1
Radio: 1.00.25.25
The natural question would be: Does it work for any of the other, more major, on the list already, cities? For example, does it work for London?
I would suspect that it's just getting the 5 day forecast from some weather service. If Boxmeer wasn't on the default list then perhaps the weather service doesn't provide any more than one day's worth of weather info for that city.
Maybe there is a slight error with accuweather code, it has to letter perfect. I would try re-entering that in the weather database editor and see what happens. Remember to use the international site for the correct code.
As the title says, I am looking for some software to monitor my usage to suit my HD with WM 6.1. I did a search and there is an old thread about a year ago, but it really does not mention any software. Any thoughts and opinions would be welcome. Thanks
Doesnt your HD come with GPRS Monitor already pre-installed?
No such thing on mine. It originally came from Singapore. Cheers.

not sure what you searched for but I found this on first search its what normally comes with the HD on a cd didnt you get a CD?
anyway its only a couple of months old thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=502567 it has a link for the GPRS Monitor software
Thanks for that. I will check this out. Maybe it is a Diamond only thing!
i couldn't find anything free :/ you can use SPB Traffic Monitor trial version :/
I have managed to find the spb monitor for the HD and will give it a go and report back in a few days time. Thanks again for your replies.
SPG GPRS Monitor is the best one I've tried so far..
I use Spb Wireless Monitor....it gives you info on all the phones connections, gprs,wi-fi etc....even notifies you when you exceed certain limits....good piece of software
I use HomeScreen++ to monitor my GPRS usage. It can be setup so that you can have just one line on the Today screen with the usage details for the day and month.

yeah i have that mate, even after updating the database its not listed. i dont live in a city, just a small town in the uk. i was hoping i'd be able to use the same kind of program sense uses for the weather, that just seems to register where ever i am, including my own town. any more ideas bud...?
well then, I'm affraid you won't be able to do so with SPB Weather. Maybe you can locate your town by GPS data though. but I guess this option will show you the nearest listed town.
Then you will need a diferent app to watch weather for your town...
Did you think that you might find your answer at the SPB forums?
