Hi F1n1sha and welcome to 4WM

I can't be held responsible for where you live!

If you have tried everything possible I am sure that it cannot be done then, if your nearest city forecast is for somewhere an hour away then surely the weather cannot be that much different.

The only option you have as far as I can see is to get a paid for application that may have your location included.

I've tried using the link that you've provided but it takes me to a site called megaupload. I take it something is wrong there?

I'm looking forward to installing this on my HTC Touch.

Hi clarkkent93 and welcome to 4WM

No it is ok, the download is at Megaupload.

This tweaked HTC Home plugin will be useful only if your telco provider uses proxy for data access - should work through 3G/GPRS/Wap connections.

I found this on XDA-Dev. Idsk initially developed patched version, and later Phouki made cabs for adding the patch without the need to reinstall HTC Home plugin.

For me worked reinstalling HTC Home proxy patch version - tested on my Hermes (SoftBank X01HT), personally was not lucky with adding the patch cab from Phouki, but it works for others.

If using Idsk vesrion, firstly should uninstall previous version of HTC Home and install HTC Home weather proxy patch version. Some connections customization is possible tweaking registry keys:

[HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\HTCHome\Weather\Settings]
"ProxyType"
0 = auto proxy config (system config*)
1 = direct to net (without proxy, default)
3 = via named proxy

* It is recommended if you use system config proxy, first to start PIE, and then everything should be running well. This is the default parameter.

Using parameter "3" in [HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\HTCHome\Weather\Settings] "Proxy" must add IP:PORT (e.g. 10.0.0.100:80)


HTC Home weather proxy patch by Idsk - download and further details here
Patch for already cooked/installed HTC Home plugin by Phouki - download and further details here

Enjoy

EDIT: Just found that installing Idsk version of HTC Home plugin "erase" all info in Device Information (Start>Settings>System). Haven't noticed any impact on device functioning.

Thanks for that Marttin, I have moved it into the HTC Home thread and I will also post it in your second post in this thread.

Hi Boz, you are very welcome. In this thread the finding/info will get better visibility. BTW, what about adding some info in the first post - could be even more visible. Honestly, the option to download weather data behind telcos proxy was only thing I was missing from HTC Home. Now it is a perfect pluging

I just saw your signature - did you sold your Hermes and Kaiser? Why - my impression these two are best HTC devices

Yes I got rid of both devices as I have decided I can do without the added bulkiness of the hardware keyboard, the only thing that the Tytn got used for in the end was for testing software and roms. I find that the Orbit 2 is perfect for me as it has everything in it I could want and is very light to carry, and I have the Trinity for backup phone wise.
