Local Weather with Touch Flo 3D

tsantacruz · #1 (**permalink**) 01-09-2009, 10:28 PM

Sorry if this has already been resolved but I cannot find it in the posts. I would like to know how to add my local city or cities to the Touch Flo Weather application. I downloaded and installed Net 3.5 CF but not sure what to do next. Any help would be appreciated. There are about 4 cities i would like to add and remove all of the cities that comes with the phone.

you need to search for the weather data base editor.. install and then add the cities with the editor.

to remove the ones that are on there now, goto weather tab and hit menu. there you can delete the ones you dont want. wasnt sure if you figured that or not. can you also change your phone info? thanx

You don't need the city codes if you're in the US.. you can get by with just entering the zip code.

Thanks to all of you who responded so quickly

I will save this and try it this weekend. also, I tried to change my phone name in my profile but it will not let me. I will work on this.

Thanks!!

I installed the fixweathedatabaseeditor cab file on my phone and rebooted my phone. i deleted all the existing entries ad when I went to add it just lists the same cities that comes with phone. Am i doing something wrong?

yeah.. you have to use the editor to add the cities then go to the weather tab to choose them. the Editor is a standalone program itself. you should find it in your program files list.. when you open it you are in afghanistan.. scroll to US (assuming) then go to the bottom right and edit/add city type in city name and state initials as you'd want it displayed in the first two fields then in the third field where it asks for the code put in the city zipcode. OR follow this format
NAM|US|STATE|CITY use the 2-letter abbreviation for state. use a space where a city name space would be but if you have an abbreviated city name like St Cloud use a dash. The simplest thing is to use the zip code because that is ALL that is necessary.

I think I got it now. You go to programs and run the weather editor icon there and enter your city then go to add location in the Touch Flo Weather app and add it there. Cool!! I am stoked now!!
