I'm still learning all about the TP and TF3d, having moved from a Treo 800. Any chance of being able to incorporate radar images? I mean, even if the URL has to be manually entered and not dynamically linked by the selected city?

RavenTBK,

Do not believe you can incorporate radar images with weather in TF3D. However, you can try WeatherPanel which is a today plug-in that you can use radar images pulled from websites such as weather.com.

here's a link to the thread: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=7357

Thanks. I've been a user of WeatherPanel for some time now, but havent gone back to it since my swap to the TP. I'm kinda partial to TF3d now that I've gotten used to it.

From my reading, there isnt much documentation on modifying tabs. My thought was a modification that instead of the current conditions image, maybe a radar image could be downloaded in its place. *shrugs* I'm still learning. Maybe eventually I'll figure how it all is supposed to work.

Yea, I do not really know anything about getting into the files and changing code and what not so I wish I could help you on that one but I would end up breaking the device I'm sure, haha. It would be nice if you could get to a radar image from within TF3D though since it does have a nice look to it. I myself use secondtoday so I can have TF3D still active and have weatherpanel open on my today screen for the exact reason that I like to be able to look at radar images.

  1. Disable TF3D
  2. Restart (Soft Reset) the phone
  3. Uninstall app (Start> Settings> System> Remove Programs)
  4. Enable TF3D

smotrs,

First of all, nicely done. I was hoping that someone might do this since I'm not quite sure I want to load the whole HD port and go through that ordeal (not that it is something awful). I have two questions for you.
1. When do you think you may have to "to-do" list finished? Not trying to push by any means.
2. I thought I read on the full HD port thread that the weather tab does not work with WeatherDatabase editor. Is that the case or do you know?

Thanks again for all the work.

I actually could never get Weather Database to work even when it was stock. However, there is a new one over at XDA called WeatherMaster that does work. So far, every city I have tried to add has been successful.

As for the ToDo, I'm not sure. The biggest problem right now is decompiling the LUA files. If I can manage to decompile them successfully, I can play around ad see what the changes affect. But right now the decompiles haven't bene 100% successful. The other option is creating an injector using the aul.dll to make my own calls and edits.

Status Update
 
Well, so far I've fixed all the images so that they are properly sized for our phone resolution.

I've also fixed the arrows so that they are properly positioned and visible now as well as repositioned the touch location so that pressing the arrow positions correctly moves between weather cities.

I've also made a CAB for that installs all languages for international support as well as a ZIP file where you will be able to locate and manually install just for your language.

Still need to resolve the issue with the text disappearing when you swipe or click the arrows to change weather cities.

Still need to fix the auto update issue.

See Post 1 for updated CAB(s).

smotrs,
Nice work, thanks for sticking with this and making it work! Great job on the cab for languages as well. Question, is your wiper working?
