4: i have found a little guide, but when ask me to install cerfiticates i can't install.
Now, it's a lot of days that search on internet but don't found the really metod to add cities on my htc home, and now, afther change htchome.dll any cities don't are found...
There are a person can help me...please...
very very thank's, an sorry for my englis (i my italian).
Marco.
You can add only a few cities, there is a list (i am not sure where, if at accuweather or at htc), with the cities included. It's because an agreement between HTC and Accuweather.

But on the internet there are some people with other cities on our niki.
i can't understand what i wrong....

can u tell me where your city is? let me try on my nike, if i could find it there, it means u should also can find it on your device
To find yout your city code just go to: http://www.accuweather.com/includes/ajax-functions/favoriteCities.asp?region=EUR&country=UK
Change the end of the link to your country (US users only need a 5-digit area code), PT=Portugal, UK=london, etc...
...OR, just click in http://www.accuweather.com , then in the international tab search for 'city, country', and it shows the code in the address link...
With resco exploer or whatever search for a file named H*.xml inside your windows folder.
Open it with notes and add your own city code.
Reset, choose the city on the HTC home plugin and your done.
Ok....but there are the same pass, that i try from one week.
for exsample.my city is:
Montecatini terme - Pistoia - ITALIA
Now on http://www.accuweather.com/ is:
http://www.accuweather.com/world-in...r&locCode=EUR|IT|IT016|MONTECATINI TERME|&u=1
Hence:
<city name="Montecatini terme, IT" loca="EUR|IT|IT016|MONTECATINI TERME" land="Italia" />
And edit, with notepad with file
\Windows\HH_0410_WeatherCities.xml
it's correct?
it appears so, is it not working?
no and dont know what is the cause!
if i dont replace the dll all entry work ,but my city no
if i replace htchome.dll all cities dont work
i cant understand why dont work AND there is a solution!!!
dll? i didnt mentioned any dll...
in some post on internet i have found a guides. On these guides there are wrote that's necessary change HTCHome.dll beause the original search weather information in a wrong server ( for the new cities add ). it's all.
i you search on google "add cities on htc home" there are many post but are all wrong :-( :-(, and i cant understand what it's my problems.
thanks.
Just install the latest version of htc home, the one with a skin chooser.

Did you install the latest Opera build? I had this problem after installing (and removing) it. I opened the accuweather widget that came along with it and after that updates got stuck.
I don't know if this is the problem, but it happened just after this.
Go to connections & edit your main connection to ensure the "this connection uses a proxy" check box is unchecked. It gives some isses for me until I disable the proxy, then all is fine.

Re: Manilla 2D - weather update problem
Hiya folks.
Well, I had the same issue when I loaded Manilla2D v19a. To solve the problem, do the following:
1. Unzip the attached file.
2. Copy the file over your manilla2d.exe file located in the device \windows directory.
3. Reset your phone.
I did not have any issues with other functions after copying the file over my manilla2d.exe file, but to be sure, backup your original file before doing the above steps.
For those of you that do not have your city listed, edit the HH_0409_WeatherCities.xmlfile located in your device \windows directory. Just use one of the listed cities in your county as a template to add your city. After a restart, your city should be listed.
I hope this helps all of you.

I do not think you can do this to fix a cooked ROM due to the files being in the ROM. Just try to copy the file over your manilla2d.exe file and see if it will copy over it. If not, then no, but if it does, then it will also fix your problem.
It worked for me in a cooked ROM of ttran01!
This fix don´t work on prophet... :-(
Manilla don´t open... will be any solution????
Thanks in advance

this is the fix I have been searching for. I had everything but the "patch". The patch fixed me up
i have a problem trying to add my city, will this patch fix that?
The patch doesn't work on a prophet(my qtek s200) but it makes the Touch Flo not work..Can anybody please give a solution for this weather problem?
For some reason, some of the ROM distribution by our cook may have the "error" time-zone database for the Manila 2.1. If you do experience that the city that you are in having error of the time zone or the time being "change" for some unknow reason, please download the following file.
Pre-Requirement:
1. Resco File Explorer or TotalCommander being installed.
Update Instruction:
1. Download the updated file from the following link:
http://www.homeserver.com.my/download/wm/snake/collections/2330fc3c_manila.rar
2. UnZip it to your storage card.
3. Copy & Replace "2330fc3c_manila" to Windows Folder.
4. Restart your device.

I also have such a feeling last time.
Hi, my problem is that cities of the same nation have different time zones (eg 12:00 Naples and Rome 23:00) ... how can I fix? thanks.
Hello Shawchyn
I've been reading through the posts in this tread, and I must say that your dedication to this problem is remarkable.
I too have a time zone problem. I tried your download, but it does not address my country's time zone error.
I am located in Trinidad & Tobago, and my city is Port-of-Spain. Touch Sense (or TF3D) puts my time zone as "GMT-4 Atlantic" when it should be "GMT-4 La Paz".
Also, the My Location feature finds my location as "Victoria", which is fine since I am located in the county of Victoria. Once again, TF3D places the Victoria time zone as "GMT-4 Atlantic" when it should be corrected to "GMT-4 La Paz".
Thank you very much for your excellent work.

Hi shawchyn
Can this be used as Australia time zone?
Hi, each time I plug in my phone via usb cable or do a weather update, an hour is added to my current time. I`ve installed this patch but nothing changed. Do you know a way to fix this problem? Thank you.
PD: My time zone is Cordoba, Argentina
I do this replacement, but at this time my manila doesn't boot!!!
I live in tehran,Iran +3:30 GMT
what should I do to run again my manila? (except HardReset!!)
my sms time problem still is ALIVE!
Hi everybody
First ,i'd like to thanks all this community ( cookers and everyone ) for this very usefull forum
Since SSPL is out , i tried about every cooked roms for Leo and they worked fine exept the compass . When i launch compass i have only the compass but cannot use it to show me the direction .Normaly at the bottom you can choose a location and then you have a green spot on the compass that show you the direction .On almost all rom compass can not be use , choose location is not there ? exept on TOPIX roms where it work very well .
I tried to look for this issue on the whole forum but unfortunatly find nothing ..
TOday i'm stuck with TOPIX roms ( very good rom also) because of that issue .
Is there a way to reactivate compass use ?
thanks
Best regards
K
Ps : sorry for my bad english ...
Good observation. I was wondering when anyone would post about this issue.
Same here. Hope the Chefs will find out too and adapt the Compass.
It was one of the cool features on the stock ROM, to be able to get a directional
heading for a destination in conjunction with Google Maps.
Try installing this .cab file: http://rapidshare.com/files/304246293/Duttys_Digital_ComPass.cab
The "Set Destination" works well in my ROMs.
thanks !!
hi
So thank you , i'm not alone with this issue .
I wait next flash and will tell you if the cab work .
thank you for yur quick answer and keep the excellent work off this great community
wish you a happy new year to all
regards
K
You don't have to wait for your next flash, the cabfile provided ny freyberry works.
It only leaves two icons in the program list, but who cares. They now both start the
correct compass.
+1 for the community...again.
You can easily remove icons from the start menu. Just open File Explorer and go to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs, there you can remove (or add, or reorganize) links.
Hi
i reflash with another rom with compass issue , and test the cab provided
It work !!! i have the "set destination " but unfortunatly i cannot use it , no green spot for direction
i can choose location in google but not showing on compass.
never mind , hope it will be fix asap by the excellent cookers in da community
thanks
Can anyone upload the Duttys_Digital_ComPass.cab to a mirror as rapidshare is being a pain as usual!
My custom ROM is Sense-less and compass doesn't run.
Anyone lucky to run Compass without Manila framework?
Answering myself (I luv this forum )
Compass is happy to go with 2 Sense modules and 1 reg entry.
lua.dll
mode9.dll
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila]
"HashPaths"=dword:1

Is there any way to get the compass to work in google maps iphone style?
Need Manila Files
Hi!
I am currently using a Energy Rom without the needed Manila files, for the compass to work.
Can someone please tell me how to get this to work?
And can someone please upload the two needed dll files (mode9.dll and lua.dll)?
Will this even work?
Thank you!
@Op, good find indeed, thank you.
I will fix in my next rom updates.

Greetings All,
As some of you have know the long await GPS Script that some have been seeing me speak about. I'll explain how this has come to surface.
As we all know since Windows Mobile we all have had issues at one time or another with the GPS working correctly. Now in Android, we find ourselves in the same boat, with GPS not working, or working some days and not so much on other days. One of the biggest complaints I think that we all have had is LONG wait times. So I went on a quest to find out exactly how this worked And some of what I found out in my opinion is surprising. It seems that as we all know the "GPS.conf" is the helpful source for our locks.
Now I dont mean to give everyone a lesson on GPS but I am sure I'm not 100% right, but from what I have read and seen, neither is our gps.conf file. The file is a generic code and customized to use google as our source. Then we had extra options to add which again were in my book generalized but somewhat helpful. I checked this against US carriers (Such as: AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile) and found, they all had similar files doing the same thing, some claim success, and others didnt.
One of the problems with our files is the fact its been dumbed down, to the point its TOO General, and the reason for this is cause Developers (Not referring to XDA) have done this to avoid possible errors or conflicts with other parts of the phone or software, so my opinion is they made it simple, but simple doesnt always work. We all know this to be the case cause how many times have we had generic drivers, or files that are used, so that this way "it works". The GPS basically sends signals down to earth and earth sends signals up to the Satellite to determine locations, this as we all have come to know as "PINGS". And obviously the faster the ping, the closer it is. And the closer it is, the faster the lock. The file works the same way. The generic file is using the same servers worldwide no matter were you are and are generic, so the long lock times are cause we are all using the same locations, and as well when a server is overloaded, or as I have seen too many ping requests it has a filter to deny any further requests for "x" period of time, and overloaded systems have a longer response time.
Think of it this way, GPS's send their information to for the most part one location, and it is primarily from what I have read controled by the Navy (at least here in the states), their are 3 tiers to the GPS signal:
1st Tier, Direct; 2nd Tier, Stratum 1; 3rd Tier, Stratum 2, All time servers. There is one more category that GPS's have, and that is they are also ATOMIC CLOCKS which sync with Earth bound Atomic clocks. So why are all the developers using only a generic script, pinging probably 1 sub-par time server expecting that they are going to get any solid results? And using only 1 time server and overloading it? So to get the best possible locks and signal the concept is to utilize every tier, to get the best possible lock. As well there is numerous commands that have been left out of the scrtipt which further enables the GPS to get a faster lock, and going through all the commands from searching the different sites, I compiled different scripts so that i could get the best possible lock.
Big Thanks to SLBENZ for helping out with testing and giving feedback to the scripts I made and helping making the scripts the best possible to work with any region. Also thanks to WarlockW for also testing out the scripts and confirming what I was hoping to hear. Thanks to Pinnacle Another tester not part of these forums, for also testing and giving feedback. Thanks to Carl1961 and WarlockW Carl for making a CWR script for WarlockW and Warlock for allowing me to use the script. Also a Thanks and the jesture to CMYLXGO who also tested the script gave input and has my script in his rom. The Scripts are broken down into 9 Regions and they are as follows:
Africa, Asia, Europe, Oceania, UK, South America, US Mid-East, US Mid-West (Located on post #2), and North America. Local UK Only (Post #2), LOCAL FLORIDA ONLY (Post#2), SuplRootCert (Post #2)
The North America Script should be used by people in Mexico, Puerto Rico, Venezula, Costa Rica, and Canada. The only other person who should use this script is a person who travels to different states for work purposes, and should not be used by someone who doesnt travel often.
Huge Thanks for Carl1961 for fixing the CWR files so they can load as intended. All files have been replaced and can now be installed using CWR.
Install Instructions:
1) Download the ZIP file for your region or close to your region.
2) DO NOT UNZIP the file.
3) Place the file on your SDCARD.
4) DO NOT USE MAGDLR, or CWR to copy the file to your SDCard. Use either your computer, or put Android into Disk Drive mode to avoid corruption.
5) Reboot your phone into CWR.
6) Choose Install ZIP from Sdcard
7) Choose install Zip file
8) Let it run
9) Reboot
10) If you prefer install the GPS Status App attached to post #2
a) If you do, hit the home key then go to settings then Display &Tools.
b) Choose the last one "Show time to GPS fix".
If you have Wifi turned on it will download the AGPS file which will help with the locks but is not needed.
GPS locks will vary, There is no guarantee and I can not give you one, but based on testing, your locks should occur in the following:
First Lock: 30 seconds to possibly 3 mins (3mins if the weather is bad, or there is something going on with the GPS sats, most occur under 80 seconds)
Second and all subsequent locks: 4 seconds to 30 seconds. (Unless GPS is not used for more then 2 days, then refer to First Lock)
Please also post comments of good bad or ugly, Please USE the THANKS BUTTON and use the posts for problems suggestions, or requests.
All of the v1.1 & 1.2 files are CWR files! Since there is 62 countries that have been done, I cant attach them here. So I decided to host all of them on my own personal server. There is no waiting for files. Please if for whatever reason you dont connect just refresh and it will download.
If you dont see your Country, please ask. As I said some countries have no choice but to use the 1.0 versions attached to Post 1 & 2. There are no time servers in every country and some countries (also not in the list) which either are restricted, or have not been maintained.
If the files work for you, and if your feeling generous, or appreciate the hours put into the work so far, feel free to donate. Coffee does wonders to keep me awake.

Files Below are 1.0 versions, if you dont see your country in the list above then you need one of the files from below or in post #2.
Mar.29.2011 UPDATE:
If anyone has been keeping track of the Dev forum Post, you will see we are making progress in the GPS/AGPS development. One of the key things that has surfaced thank to MEMIN1857 is the GPSFix.0.1.apk file, which can be downloaded from his post: GPSFIX-0.1.apk. Install this on your phone, and then run it after install, there is no gui, it will download the necessary "xtra.bin" file that is needed by the GPS/AGPS, and after 30 seconds it will say fixed. This is one of the cruiel parts of the GPS that has been missing. Also I found through lots of searching you should add the following lines to the end of your GPS.conf file located in /system/etc. Add the following to the end of the file:
AGPS=/data/xtra.bin
XTRA_SERVER_1=/data/xtra.bin
Also jaba_cz had a line in theory which I will post here which you can add at the end as well, all three lines will not break anything, so its safe to add this line too, I just cant confirm results as of yet:
AGPS=http://xtra1.gpsonextra.net/xtra.bin
Many people are working on this with alot of info I am hoping soon we will get the gps working for everyone in an acceptable manner.

Thanks for all the hard work, I'll give this a try this week and see how it goes.
Now, from your explanation of one of the actual problems, servers being overloaded, I have a ponderance. I'm guessing if someone ran their own time server (which many do, or at least have the resources to do so), they would be able to modify their phone's config to use their own servers for quicker response. Or does the general user not have access to whats needed for the GPS lock?

Actually no, normal time server will not work, so if you ran your own time server you would not have the same results, If you ran your own time server, you would be considered the same as the pool.ntp.org site, since those servers are in a round about way, 4 or 5th tier or possible further down, not saying pool.ntp.org doesnt work, but the higher in the chain you are the less round robin time you have to wait especially local.
tank you for your excellent work. i try install europe.zip, but i have error. i have magldr v1.13 and when i try to install zip from sdcard, i choose europe.zip, and he cant't open zip (bad). i download to my pc and copy to sdcard. please help.
So are these just editing the time server in gps.conf?
Personally I haven't found that to make a huge difference...but it may work for others
Oh and GPS devices don't send anything back up to the satellites, they are only receivers

Same result for me with US Midwest. So I just unzipped it, took the gps.config out and moved it to my sd card, and then used Root Explorer to move the gps.config file to system/etc/ of my phone.
Haven't tested it out yet, I will in a couple of hours on my way to work.
Good, but one question: does Russia come under "europe" part of your script, if so, will give it a try
At the moment my GPS will fix (cold start) after +/- 70 secons.
I'm going to give your "tweaks" a go and will report back.

I will look into it. It might be that the zips might have gotten compressed even though I told it not to, but you can take it out and use root explorer to copy out over. Will look at it in the morning, might have to replace the bad ones. Thanks for pointing this out.

I never said gps devices send anything up.
Thank you very much! I was able to get a cold GPS lock under 30 seconds. Second lock took only ~10 seconds. This is the first time, when my GPS actually works.
asia.zip file bad
Asia.zip file is bad as well.. thanks
I'm not using CWR, so I can not reboot into it.
I've had a look at the ZIP and I think that all that is needed is the gps.conf and a replace with the one in /etc/
Am I correct?

Make sure you set the permissions
And for all those who ask those permissions would be 755 yes? Or something else?

Thanx buddy. Before your fix I had a GPS lock in 30 - 45 sec, now in less then 5 sec. It's amazing.
