I haven't been using custom manila since I assume it's completely different. I've knocked out all cities and have only MyLocation set to do it's jobby job and I've had good results.

I'm mostly convinced that MyLocation is pulling some sort of tower information and that's why everyone gets a different bag. I also notice that as it triangulates, the information changes depending on which towers it picks up. So at my office it may say "Rosslyn [VA...just over the river]" "Washington [DC]" or "West Over Place". It's all accurate within reason.



Check my Guide for the instructions.

OR...the hot new Thread I just created specifically for this ROM and 2.5. I'm keeping the 2.1 Thread and Guide in place until they're fully phased out.

Eat it up.
The world clock is off by 5 hours. MyLocation would not consistenly find my hometown so I used WeatherDatabaseEditor to add my city. I now get weather updates regularly and was actually surprised that my city was now an option in the world clock database. However, it's off by 5 hours from the nearest city to me. Not a big deal...just selected the San Francisco on world clock instead.

Thanks for the info!
