Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)

< Weather Panel Widget SPB Mobile Shell 3 spb3 Lifestyles Screen Auto Update Widget cab install >

Sprint HTC 6800 Mogul Titan Windows Mobile 6.1 WM 6.1

Update 2009-06-25 : Installed Commuter theme, nice, re-ran WP Widget cab.
It worked fine, but then when I clicked on the widget or WP-Activate a window
saying something like retrieving weather panel or whatever then a ping sound
and finally nothing, no new window with WP. In addition the widget was not updating.

So I uninstalled the theme back to the original and wa-la, now when I click the widget
or WP-Activate the weather panel, default theme, opens in a new window; ???

BUT, the widget still didn't update and I didn't touch anything while sleeping.

So on my way to work on the cable car this morning, I re-ran the widget cab
again and chose Windows Queue for the update instead of silent script,
and wa-la again, the widget update works. :->

So I'm still a bit confused on the 'necessity' of a custom theme for
the widget running in spb3 because I get updates, from the WP in Today screen I believe,
and when I click on the widget or WP - Activate the WP app out of the Today screen opens
in a new window; good?

Is something stuck in the registry from the first mis-install of the older version found on XDA?
The cabs do say uninstalling older version when installing or re-installing.

If the latter is not the correct case then after I install a theme do I have to regedit
the widget link as in post 3?

Additionally, how do you set links to traffic cams for the selected city, SF in my case,
in the various themes or should I say pass on the link to the tutorials.
I did read the zipped readme file.

Finally, are there other icons available for the widget to use?
I saw that there's icons for the themes.

As far as I can tell, this widget is working just fine.

Thanks again.
