I've even tried editing the sqLite db on my PC. I can see the data, but for some reason can't add a row to the db!

@Drewcam888 - I've been a little hesitant to use Conflipper's db, because it's pretty hefty. I guess I'd prefer just to add a few cities to what I have.

I also noticed that Conflipper uses another data source??? I saw something in his post about that he had changed the source url. Are there any accuracy issues with the source he is using? I know by default, VZ uses Accuweather. Not sure what he is using.
I was in the exact same boat as you, just wanted to add my own. I used Andreas' with 6.1 and liked it alot, but it didn't work in 6.5.
I then found the JVH3 solution on xda. His program also doesn't currently worth with 6.5, but he found a work around. Apparently 6.5 is missing the 'countries' table, so on page 37 of his thread he posts a replacement manila file that you copy to your device, and then you can use his application.

Remember that you must turn OFF sense before you run his app.

I did it tonight and it worked like a charm.
