Fixing Weather Locations in TF3D?

I could've swore a while back I read you could add to the limited weather choices on the TP1 (I thought about getting it, but stuck with my 800w until something better came along...now I have the TP2).

I'm wondering, is this fix is possible using the TF3D on the TP2? If so, anyone mind posting the how-to for a new TP user?

Thanks in advance!

Cosmo

Re: Fixing Weather Locations in TF3D?

I followed these instructions carefully; however, when I try to launch the weather database editor, I get the following error message:

"This application requires a newer version of the microsoft .NET Compact Framework than the version installed on this device."

I noticed in the link provided, that another user had a similar problem. Any advice for a new TP2 Sprint user?

Thanks in advance!

Re: Fixing Weather Locations in TF3D?

I downloaded this, and it stated it would transfer over during the next sync. Well, I sync'd the device and can't tell if it was pushed to the phone or not. I tried again to launch the weather database editor, and got the same error message....

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Fixing Weather Locations in TF3D?

Okay, finally got it to work. Reading microsoft's website, it stated to ensure the device was connected to the computer when you install the .NET Framework.

Therefore, I uninstalled it off the computer (with the device hooked up...while connected via ActiveSync --Vista). Then I left the device hooked up to the computer and reinstalled it. This time, the device asked for me to click "install" which was different than before.

Now all is good and it is working!

Hope this helps someone else having similar difficulties!

Re: Fixing Weather Locations in TF3D?

I have the latest dotNet framework but I used the weather database editor from my original TP. It recognized the existing database and I was able to add the new cities. However when I went to weather my TF3D restarts. I did a soft reset and again TF3D restarts. It sits on the weather screen for a second or two attempting to load and then it restarts TF3D. I already have done a hard reset to fix the problem.

Can someone confirm that the weather database used for TP2 is a newer one? If it is the same one used with TP then I won't install it and try again. Thanks
