how to add a new city to the weather plugin - HTC Wings

hi,
ive read plenty of articles how to add a new custom city to the htc home weather plugin, ive found the current city on the
my city isnt in this list:
http://www.accuweather.com/includes/ajax-functions/favoriteCities.asp?region=EUR&country=SK
but if im using the search form, i find it:
http://www.accuweather.com/world-index-forecast.asp?partner=accuweather&traveler=0&locCode=EUR|SK|LO000|ZILINA
1. problem if i want to add my city in the .xml file inside the windows dir in the rom, i cannot change it, cause, its rom, also no the file attributes, i thought, maybe i create a new file with a new language code and use this, somehow, but i dont want to change my current language: english
2. ive tried to set it in the registry:location and locationcode, but the plugin writes eveytime: unable to retrieve data for selected city...
any ideas?

1. Have you searched the registry? There may be path of the .xml file so you yould just "redirect" to your modified file. (I dont know if there is such key or not, but you can try that...)

Have anyone succeed to add a new city? I have changed the xml file but the new city isn't visible? Tried reboot after the change.
Why are there several files with similar name but same content?

mine windows doesnt allows to overwrite or change this file...

Now I hade edited the file, i copyed the file thru active sync and then back to Storage Card and then used Total Commander and copyed it to \windows.
But when i select the city it can't get the information for selected city.
Is there something else i have to change?

you can try to set the settings direct in the registry, its already a thread about it, here somewhere...

i now tried to change the url in the htchome.dll but i wont find the url to replace.
Someone must have solved this problem?

I am one of the folks here who wish to be able to add different cities. If somoeone figure out how to perform it, please just let us know

I have been able to copy to my desktop HH_0409_WeatherCities and HH_0809_WeatherCities (not sure witch one attributes to english language) I added the strings related to my city and now i try to replace them on the s730 but as other found, it is in ROM and i cannot chage its properties with total commander....need help, maybe i am not so familiar with TC. I am so close!

I added my city to the HH_0809_WeatherCities.xml file by copying it to my desktop and then copying it back into the smartphone. I think the edited file shadows the file in the ROM. I can now select my own city from the list, but the weather program still cannot update.
I can see that when I select a city, the registry values
HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCHome\Weather\Settings\Location​
and
HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCHome\Weather\Settings\LocationCode​
get the right values, however the registry key
HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCHome\Weather\Settings\CityIndex​
doesn't change, and I suspect that this is not good. I haven't been able to correlate this city index with a location code. I think it might be the index of the entry in the .xml file.

CityIndex is the position of the city on the list. But it doesnt matter, you can have any number and it will work.
When I change LocationCode to another place which is in the list, it displays it. It seems it's problem of the server, they just do not provide data for other cities this way. If I change LocationCode to my city, I get this message: "Unable to retrieve data for selected city."
EDIT: Here is some more info... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319187
The library needs to be modified to connect to different server. I have just tried the DLL from Kaiser but the weather plugin just disappeared. I will try to modify Wings's HTCHome.dll.

When u fix de htchome.dll I wont that file =) I tried to modify my file but i dosen't work.

WORKING!!!
1. Instal certificate
2. Instal Resco Explorer
3. Get loccode of your place on accuweather.com
4. Switch to non-HTC homescreen
5. Copy WeatherUpdateService.exe to temp dir on your smartphone and check it is set as system and read-only
6. Copy WeatherUpdateService.exe and replace the orignal in the Windows directory using Resco Explorer
7. Modify HH_xxxx_WeatherCities.xml (or registry - HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCHome\Weather\Settings\LocationCode and HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCHome\Weather\Settings\Location)
Refresh data.

Kaiser Splash Screen Repository [Pictures & Files]

Splash Screen (Boot) File Repository.
I Thought I would start a thread for the splash screens that people are using or those that people have designed for others.
Essentials for creating the splash screens are:
An art program to create the picture that you want, please make sure that your image is 240x320 pixels 24bit colour depth and save it as a .bmp
Follow the instructions in this post by pof (not exactly clear on the HTC rom tool section, just pick anything for the fields in the program and load the correct splash.nbh file by clicking the ... to the right of the splash1 field)
Here are a couple of pictures of some splash screens to get started with.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Put one of these files in the same directory as KaiserCustomRUUv1 and then run the program it will ask you questions make sure you answer yes to them all and then patch the phone. Once done it will automatically reboot your phone and show you the new splash screen.
Russ
Please make sure you edit your original post to add more pictures & files to save having lots of pages per person.
Is this for the first screen where it says 'smart mobility' or is for the animated HTC screen? If the latter, how do you make (which format) & upload an animated one?
I have no idea on the animated one but I am only guessing when I say that its the smart mobility one at the very beginning when you power on the phone on.
As for the animated one if it is the windows start-up then that is a 320x320 pixel 24 bit .png file called welcomehead.96.png on my T-Mobile UK phone so I would suggest starting there in your search for replacing the animated one (if its a .gif then you are ok).
Russ
Thanks mate!!
Awesome stuff
Here's my appreciation in the form of some Anime fan service shots
If I knock up any more I'll share them
There are also some animated ones in this thread.
my theme
great!
Post your splash
I like the easy way.
Just make your picture 240x320, save as welcomehead.96.png and copy to \windows\ on the Kaiser.
Bob's your Uncle.
I've always liked this one, it goes well with the Stock ROM's HTC logo when booting into Black. I believe that the welcomehead png's need to be 320 x320 to cover things when booting in landscape. These welcomehead splashes are so easy to just drop into the windows directory, no rom burning needed, getting the original file's read only attribute turned off is the only hurdle. I used resco file explorer to do it.
Due to the limitation of 4 images per post I guess we are going to have to make more posts per person.
Here are a couple of windows based ones I made. I actually have the carbon one on mine at the moment and it looks alot better on the device.
The animated gif does not work on my t-mobile even adding the registry key of hklm/software/htc/startupanimation/giffile and pointing it to the relevant named file so I guess thats only for those who have changed their roms (unless your on t-mobile rom and its working please correct me if i'm wrong)

A little contribution for the third splash screen...
Here is my work :
All in .png format, 240x320 pix, rename it welcomehead.96.png and paste it in the windows directory.
I've tried to keep the TyTN II'spirit ~smart'n'pro !

You can't have two file with the same name so something must be different (unless the 2nd one has a (2). I found that I had to use resco file explorer to change the original welcomehead file's attributes and remove the "read-only" flag. Then I was able to copy over it with my own splash .png files.
Also the welcomehead files "should" be 320x320 to give you a correct image if booting in landscape but I never boot this way and I imagine others don't either.
Hey Deathace, do you have this screen in a plain version with no logos, just the swirl?
RemE: here you go.

Perfect Thanks!

welcomehead.96 read only
I got Resco File Explorer, I went to the windows directory and changed welcomehead.96.png to read only, but it doesn't stick. It immediately reverts back to read only. So, I can't copy the new file in.

copy the new file from your PC to the 'My Document' folder on the Tilt. Then on Tilt, copy (or move) the file from the "MY Docs" folder to the \windows directory. You get a prompt ot overwrite, say yes to that, then you will get a second warning about the file being replaced is a ROM file, say OK to this too....

HTC Audiomanager 480x640 here

Hi,
Been looking for a version of the old Audiomanager for ages but in the end gave up and have modified it myself.
This is if anyone else misses it...
I've only tested on my Diamond using Bepe's ROM so please use at your own risk.
Download from here:
Improved version (smaller file sizes + cab update)
www.ziggyred.com/audiomanager-vga.zip
An interpretation in 480x640 or Poorlyduck's skin with both portrait and landscape (shown below) is here:

http://www.ziggyred.com/Audiomanager-480x640.zip
Install the cab to your storage card and then install the "update-to-vga" cab to the same folder. This way you will have this version plus the new TF3D version.
Cheers - A.
Fuller Instructions:
(1) Install the HTC_Audiomanager cab to your Internal Storage card!
(2) Install the second cab ("Update-to-vga") to teh SAME FOLDER
Please be careful not to copy to your main Windows folder!
If, when starting audio manager you see "Load RC fail" in the titlebar and nothing happens...
try renaming audiomanager.exe.0409.mui (again in the windows folder on the card) to audiomanager.exe.0407.mui
¨Sorry cant get it to work on my Diamond from sweden
I've tested it again on mine with no problems - what error message or problems do you get?
Doesn't work on bepe's bElite ROM either.
The top bar shows the "Load RC fail" message for half a second and that's all.
And i use original ROM
And doesnt get any error at all.
just wont start.
It works now after I have renamed the audiomanager.exe.0409.mui file
0409 probably only works on WWE ROMs
But there is another problem: The audiomanager only uses a quarter of the screen, the rest is black.
Strange, I'm running it on Bepe's ROM with nothing else on it...
What language are you using? Mine is WWE
Someone has suggested doing this:
"...if i will start audio manager i can see "Load RC fail" in the titlebar...by the startmenuebutton... but the program dindnt start.. .any ideas? ANSWER: ...renaming audiomanager.exe.0409.mui (Windows folder) to audiomanager.exe.0407.mui did the job !
Hi, now you need to copy all the files in the Images folder in my zip file to the Windows folder on your Internal card (where you installed Audiomanager).
Just replace teh existing ones.
This will make the resolution work fine in VGA...
I renamed the ...0409.mui file to 0407.mui because I have the german version of bepe's rom. It should work for you without renaming.
Hi, I think you need to do step (2):
(1) Install the HTC_Audiomanager cab to your Internal Storage card
(2) Copy the contents of Images (not the folder itself) to the Windows directory on your *** Internal Storage Card ***
(you will want to Overwrite existing files)
Please be careful not to copy to your main Windows folder!
If, when starting audio manager you see "Load RC fail" in the titlebar and nothing happens...
rename audiomanager.exe.0409.mui (again in the windows folder on the card) to audiomanager.exe.0407.mui
Use at your own risk.
Still wont work after renaming the file.
I performed step 2 first so the installation has overwritten the files. Now it works fine.
Good job!

Do you get the "Load RC fail" message in the title bar when you try to execute the audiomanager or is nothing happening?
Nothing happends at all.
will give it a try tomorrow at work thou.
Just got it, Ill check it out.
Hi,
I've updated the Set as Ringone and Trim MP3 screens now so whole thing should be properly sized for Diamond VGA.
Cheers - A.
Whats the advantage of this product? worth installing? screens?
Hi, Just type HTC Audiomanager into Google and you'll find hunderds of screenshots.
I suspect if you don't remember it from your last phoen you probably won't want it...
It's a step back for those of us who dislike the new TF3D version.

PLENTY of us dislike the forced usage of a crappy TF#D combined with an old school WMP.
Can you confirm when installing this older version ,it over writes WMP as main player and that AVRCP and A2DP support is working for Bluetooth devices?
Meaning, if you use a bluetooth stereo headset with A2DP control on a Diamond, it only links to Windows Media Player and I (we) hope it will now start-up the known fluent functionality from HTC (old) Audiomanager?
Don't have any BT devices I'm afraid but suspect they will work as this is merely the complete player from the Kaiser.
I simply re-edited the screen xml and pngs and included them in a folder so that it works in VGA format.
As installed on the Internal Card is is NOT a default player but runs additionally to teh newer version.
I suspect default player setting is a reg key somewhere...

Hehe..actually i felt a lil lazy..so i just removed the stuff from the dump folder and left the initflashfiles like that

so it means:
1: i can remove these codes form the file
or:
2: i can add the programs ( but still not understanding how to put new programs in dump folder)
well yes you can remove them..becareful though
to add the files..i explained you earlier
place all the files in the dump folder except the option.xml and in the initflashfiles.txt
discard the option.xml and open the initflashfiles with a text file and copy its contents..then paste it in the MAIN (which u get before compiling ) initflashfile and ur done
again, BE SURE TO REMOVE THE 2 EXTRA BYTES ADDED BY NOTEPAD, which are FF and FE

ah-ha
i wish it was that simple for me
but i am trying hard..
i have the cab files... dump folder has exe.....bit lost here

Hi jirrah, for cooking the rom, you have to use OEM packages, you have a very useful list made by Ather at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=333359

and thanks to ather for his wonderul rom, which i am trying to understand and not to mention his kitchen.. great stuff...
i am still trying to figure out to edit initflashfiles.dat by IBE (what does it means),,,
is there any way to manually edit the initflashfiles.dat and delete the last 2 bites mentioned...
thanks
jirrah, maybe ather can explain how to use the IBE, I use the tools provided at the "C:\ather\Himalaya Kitchen\Hex Edit" folder to edit my initflashfiles.dat.txt.
I've copied a initflashfiles.dat.txt file to "C:\ather\Himalaya Kitchen\Hex Edit" folder. I always make my changes in this file, and at the end (save and close) I run a new batch file (in the same folder) with this code:
Code:
CLS
@Echo This Will Remove the FF and FE from your InitflashFile
@Echo Place the File here
@Echo njoy Automation
@pause
@explorer.exe C:\ather\Himalaya Kitchen\Hex Edit
@CLS
@Echo " Press any key to Remove the Bytes "
@pause
XVI32.exe initflashfiles.dat.txt /S=del.xsc
@pause
At the builing process, when we are prompted to edit the initflash.dat.txt file I just copy the file from the "C:\ather\Himalaya Kitchen\Hex Edit" folder to "C:\ather\Himalaya Kitchen\Tools" folder.
some oem packages contain dll files, rgu, dsm without an initflashfiles.
as far i understand i hve to copy all dll, rgu,dsm in dump folder .. even the dsm or rgu are of 0 bytes...
rgu contain the registry keys setup for that dll..
then we have to process the HKCU and HKLM in the kitchen...
But when i open the HKCU and HKLM those rgu enteries are not added up.... or the add up later,, i even checked after reassembling...
am i doing something wrong.
thanks
yes..you have to import it by Registery Workshop after you get the prompt to Edit HKLM and HKCU
Oh i see
as i remember inanother thread you advised to:
"
as far the OEM pacages are concerned..its a lil bit hard..first download the required OEM then extract it in a seperate folder...then delete the option.xml from it..then copy the files,shortcuts,RGU's,DSM's and paste them into the dump folder..dnt touch the initflashfiles.txt file yet !
"
and that i was doing, thanks for clearing
Now do we have to mention any thing in the initflashfiles about these dll or rgu files which are dumped
im sorry for that..i must have been sleepy that time
nono..no refrence needed in initflashfiles file for this..the initflashfile file only holds the shortcuts
alright....
what about dsm files, do i need to put them in dump even they are of 0 bytes...(in dump of your rom, i dont see dsm files)
and in RGU where should i import when i am processing HKCU or in HKLM, as many RGU have HKLM enteries while others have HKCU enteries...
the DSM are useless for this kitchen..but are useful for others (if they want to extract the packages using PKGTool by Bepe)
as for the RGU's its better export in both, HKCU and HKLM..but i think one would be enough ...you can always try and tell us

[THE] TF3D Fire Icons (Update 25th Nov - Call History & Calender support)

hey folks,
after some long waiting, here is the long promised fire theme
i also revisited the landscape icons to make them even better and match the new theme
****************************************************
UPDATE 25th November!
I Uploaded 2 more zip files
"Fire v2.1 (Calendar & Call History included).zip"
The same as the original version, however it included Calender and Call History
"All Files in 1 folder.zip"
This file ONLY contains the required system files. Everything is in 1 folder so that you can install it faster. Please read the "Read me.txt" included.
****************************************************
PLEASE READ ALL MY NOTES AND INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE INSTALLING!
Instructions:
1. Download my file and unzip it on your Storage Card on your mobile
2. Disable TF3D (Settings-Today)
3. Open Total Commander and navigate to the extracted folder
4. Right click on the manila file that you want to use (you can use the ctl button on Total Commander for multiple selection). Do NOT copy the whole folder containing the manila files; copy ONLY the manila files instead!!!!!! For extra information on the way i organized the zip file check Note 2
5. Click on copy/move. Then select the Windows directory on your phone & overwrite if prompted (Caution: your storage card might also have a windows folder. You need to select the one on your phone!)
6. Re-enable TF3D[/B].
7. Soft reset (only if it is not working yet)
8. Installing the volume control icon
(Volume bars from Prewien..I modified the colours to my needs )
Move the bmp file with Total Commander to the windows directory of your phone and then reboot
9. Red Selection in phone dial
Use a registry editor and navigate to HKLM-Software-HTC-Phone and change "highlightcolour" to 861600 in hex mode
Notes:
1. Landscape mode will NOT work on the Diamond by default (only if its modded to do so. Do not ask me how to do it, i have no idea)
2. Folder Content: The zip file contains separate folders each of which includes the files for a different mod. So for example, the folder "Fire Slider" ONLY includes the files required for the slider to work. you ONLY need to copy the manila files. I included the PNG icons in the zip just in case someone wants to mess around with them.
3. In case the icons don't work, use Diamond TF3D config-->Appearance-->Restore Default and then follow my steps.

Thanks!!
That's definitely a cool theme, gonna try it out. Isn't a burning snowflake kinda strange though? A picture of the sun would be more logical. Or is it a joke I'm not appreciating

I felt the irony when making that icon too
the reason for choosing that was that it was the only weather icon that i could find that did not look cartoony
i will see if i can find more during the weekend
Updated instructions!!!
Next update: Calender & Call History!
Update
Call History & Calender
I also added another file for simpler and quicker installation
please make this TF3D Config compatable!
where can i find the landscape for these icons
i have installed the icons i just would like to have the landscapes to i have the htc touch pro
Is there a way to go back to the original TF3D after installing this?
@pittaman:
i have no clue on how to do that sorry
@bandit
the zip files include landscape support..check the instruction for more detail on how to install them
@sypod
yes there is..here are some ways
1. Backup the manila files that you want to replace. If you want the stock theme you can always use the same procedure to copy the backup files to windows
2. Delete the manila files that were in the zip file from the windows directory..manila files are by default stored on your ROM. Deleting them from your windows directory will result to the ROM restoring the original file automatically
3. Use Diamond TF3D Config and click on restore default theme. Essentially this does the same as 2 but then quicker and automatically for you

Comm Manager & Audio Settings
Hi, really nice Theme. Are there icons for COMM MANAGER & AUDIO SETTINGS, too? On my phone these two tab icons are grey (default).
I have two questions:
1. What is total commander and how do I use it to get the firetheme on my phone?
2. Where is the windows directory on my phone? (sorry i'm really a noob at this stuff...)
@stelzi76:
i dont have icons for those sorry. i dont know which manila files are responsible for them..
there is call history, calender and all the stock tabs
@crown:
total commander is a file explorer
its freeware, you can get it here http://freewareppc.com/utilities/totalcommander.shtml
how to use it: follow the instructions that i posted above.
you can also take a look at these screenshots that i made in the following link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3144608&postcount=62
thanks that helped alot i hope this works....
ok i encountered another problem...my phone doesn't have the folder windows that I see in your screenshot.
Do you have a file for the Sprint TV icon? It's the only one that is still grey when it's not selected, but when Sprint TV is hightlighted it does show the fire icon.
Newbe!! need help in installing icons
@Giannis86
I need some help how to install this app to my htc touch pro, refer to your notes step by step,
1. OK
2. OK
3. Fail (where I can open Total Commander), instead I opened extracted files from File Explorer.
4 & 5. I followed the instruction, when I selected the manila fles and copy to Windows directory >> ACCESS DENIED >> it says (Cannot copy ..... manilas: acces denied. Make sure your mobile devise has sufficient memory, that the file is not as read -only, and that you have permission to copy this file type).
Help me please, really want to use this icons look awsome
thanks

If you don't have Total Commander, then you're going to have problems using it, aren't you, lol? Try searching for Ghisler's Total Commander. It's not hard to find. File Explorer won't work (hence, the instructions, lol).
its awsome

Open a buildprop editior and change the value of ro.nfc.icon.enable to false. You need root for that
You need to be rooted and edit your build.prop. An easy way to do this is with Build Prop Editor.
You need to find the entry -
ro.nfc.icon.enable
Change the value from true to false, then reboot.
Edit - Beaten to it. ?

Nice idea! but some what it didn't work for me.
It was already on false when I first saw it.
I tried to 'true' it and re'false', tried to change every one there except the first but nothing worked (I restarted each time ofc, I've played with build.prop many times before)

I was sure that the Gravity Xposed tool is related to that but disabling it didn't help.. any idea?

hmm i have a bit HARD way for that but im sure you can do it!
take systemUI.apk from system/priv-app or system/app
then rename it to SystemUI.zip then extract it in empty folder
then open folder called "res"
you will find alot of folders! open them ONE BY ONE and delete every NFC icon you find!
after you finish deleting all NFC icons go back to the place you extracted SystemUI.zip
select all the files and folders and compress them (put them in zip file) and select store compressing mode
after you finish rename the zip to SystemUI.apk ( the upper case letters keep them upper case!!)
download zipsigner app
install it and open it!
click CHOOSE IN/OUT button! and select the place the you put the new SystemUI.apk and select it
click the sign the file button
when finish open your file manager and go to the same folder you have SystemUI.apk
you will find apk file with the same name with extra SIGNED text!
rename it to SystemUI.apk and move to system/app or system/priv-app and REPLACE the old one then set the permissions to rw-r-r
reboot and enjoy it!
ps. i didnt tried it for sure but i found the icons inside the apk
BACKUP THE ORIGINAL SYSTEMUI.APK BEFORE TRY!!!!!!!

Well done my friend !
I feel like an hero after proccessing this and succussing.
I didn't completely followed your guide because the saying of "search every NFC icon and delete it" gave me a red light that this might be bad..
after done I can say that the only needed files for deleting are
stat_sys_nfc_forum.png and they are in 3 places:
SystemUI\res\drawable-hdpi
SystemUI\res\drawable-xhdpi
SystemUI\res\drawable-xxhdpi
Trying to zip it / unzip it apk it and sign it didn't work.
After renaming it once the file is ruined and can't use it anymore no matter signing or not.. (I probably didn't do it right but I couldn't do it that way..)
So what I did was copying the apk file to PC, opening it with winrar and deleting the files through it without changing the apk extension.
After that I sent back to phone and went to system/priv-apk folder, renamed the original systemUI.apk to .BAK (so I won't lose it)
and copied the edited 1 to there.
set permission to:
owner: read+write
Group: read+wrote
others: read
only this way it works, don't know what rw-r-r means but putting owner: r,w and others only read didn't work.
(I simply watched the premission on the original and did the same for the modified)
reboot and bam! it works!
Huge thanks for your guide !
