Weather Update Connection Error?

[oneandsix]

nope.

I am on stock Sprint rom... what about everyone who is having problems with this fix?

I have the same problem of not being able to run the app. But installing it was enough to correct the weather updating problem on the TF3D. I do not really need the app's functionality, so I uninstalled it. But then the weather updates no longer worked. Re-installed. Updates work again. For me, a regedit would be best. There is some discussion of a regedit in the link above. I think I will pursue that.

Interestingly enough, I read this post and uninstalled it and my weather updates are failing again. I am with you and I am going to check into the regedit implementation...

Weather tab is updating fine without the hack/ program on XDA.

Yeah, I uninstalled it and it broke. So I went to the XDA link and tied the regedit, bit it did not work. I didn't get an update error; it just kept saying updating and never actually updated. I took the regedit back out and went back to getting the update error.

I am going to reinistall the cab and leave it alone, until another more straight forward resolution is found. I gotta have my weather!

I did the same fooling around with the edit with the same results. But the last thing that I did was uninstall the cab and check the weather function. It works now. You may want to check it. The server may be up. I will leave it alone for a while and look into it if it stops working again tomorrow.

I just activated my phone yesterday, and called Sprint when the weather wasn't working. I just got a call back that they are aware of the problem and are working on it. For whatever that's worth.

Here is what I finally did. I installed the Weather Editor app, then went to the Registry Editor. The app adds a key called Weather.ServerURLoverride. I renamed the key by removing the "e" at the end. Then I uninstalled the Weather Editor app. Finally, go back to the Registry Editor and rename the URLoverride Key back to what it was. This corrected the problem. I have tested it several times, did a soft reset, and it still works.
