emunutz,
I think hacking the dll for weather isn't the best option. The Pocket Hosts method is better because if that server ever goes down, it's a lot easier to change that than re-hexedit a dll.
The good thing about the pocket hosts method is that you don't need pocket hosts to do it. All that app does is give you an easy UI to add a reg entry. I already put that reg entry in the last kitchen by default, and it can very easily be added to a cab file.
I'm not sure why the people at xda didn't think of that, but this is all you need to add:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Tcpip\Hosts\htc.accuweathe r.com]
"ipaddr"=hex:40,3e,9e,6c
Voila! No hacking or anything else needed. If that server goes down at some point all people would need to do is change that reg entry.
