This only works if you are using Manila 2. If you are using the regular Manila, then go here for instructions. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=408918

Get this database editor for Manila 2/Rhodium

4. Just pick State, Add your city and zip code and everything should work.

Could you list a city you tried to add and got that error? Let me try on my phone and see if I get the same problem.

This really depends on what version of TF3D you are using.

All those worked for me. Which custom ROM are you using? I am using Merdin's 4.0 with Manila 2 TouchFlo.

Yes, I got the weather for all the cities you listed. Did you delete the cached database? Also, try using a dash instead of the space in the city name.

I think the connection error has something to with the ROM. I get intermittent DATA problems with it.

lehigh-acres

That's how Accuweather has it in the URL.
