SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

Thanks to notaliberal over on XDA you can get the weather to update
automaticaly now!

"Had been trying for some time to get the weather tab (and therefore the weather under the clock) to update more frequently than every 2 - 3 hours. I added the reg entry from a Sense 2.5 ROM, and can confirm that I've got it auto updating weather every half hour!!"

Nice find! Thanks!

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 / 2.5 weather update frequency!!
 

Such an easy fix... we need to be trying to do this with all the different 2.1/2.5 Packages and seeing how we can get them to work together.

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 / 2.5 weather update frequency!!
 

good find!

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 / 2.5 weather update frequency!!
 

Does anyone know the exact default update frequency?

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 / 2.5 weather update frequency!!
 

3 hours.

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 / 2.5 weather update frequency!!

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 / 2.5 weather update frequency!!
 

awesome thanks

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 / 2.5 weather update frequency!!
 

how come the title says 2.5... 2.5 already has these frequencies doesn't it?

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 / 2.5 weather update frequency!!
 

Appreciate the info.

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 / 2.5 weather update frequency!!
 

Will try this later.

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 / 2.5 weather update frequency!!
 

Yes, it does.

that was one of the reasons I originally switched from Mighty to Juicy...

this is cool, but ion need my weather updated, 24/48/96 times a day. lol. seems like over kill especially when im sleeping.

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 / 2.5 weather update frequency!!
 

Well its not just the weather .. its the sun/moon/night/day/ thing thats updated too!

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

Mine still doesn't update at the hour interval. Yes I have soft reste since I made the change. I manually entered the entry and also tried the cab and neither work. Using Verizon tp2 with stock rom.

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

great find!! thanks posted!!!

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

I can't say that surprises me.

I am on VZ also & when I was running MightyROM (manila 2.1) my weather never updated once (it didn't even update at the 3 hour intervals although I had auto-update checked)

Now that I run Juicy's ROM with manila 2.5 set to update every 15 minutes it finally works the way it's supposed to.

For the first few days, I was checking on it constantly comparing what it said on my home screen to the temp/conditions from weather underground to see how it was doing. Everytime I checked, it was right on & now I finally know what the outside temp is from within my office (with no windows)

When I was running MightyROM it was not unusual for the home screen temp to be off by 12 degrees or more.......(& still showing a moon at 11AM)

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

I'm running Mighty 2.1 12/6/09 and the 15 min cab doesn't work for me either... Prior to this install, it didn't install every three like it was supposed to either...I would love to get this fixed...

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

Thanks for sharing this. Always like to make the phone easier to use.

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

I hate to do this but... I am running the 12.06 mighty rom and mine is updating evry 15 min. I installed the cab and reset the phone. When it came back up it did not update and showed the last update was 4 min ago which was correct. I let it set and it whent to sleep. I let more than 15 min go by and when I pressed the power button the time flipped forward to the correct time and the weather updated while I was watching it. I would say that it works now.

Edit: Okay well it updated on it's own at 15 min one time but now it's showing 20 plus min and no update. Sorry about the quick draw on the post.

Edit 2: It finaly updated at the 30 min mark on its own. Not sure whats up.

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

Mine still updates at the 3 hour mark. So I don't understand why this works for some and not others. It doesn't work on the imagio either. I guess it is nonworking on stock verizon phones

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

Are you sure the reg. edit took ? go and look .. and make sure you have..

HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\

Weather.AutoDownloadInterval

Just to check ..

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

I do have it and it doesnt work. I used the cab and I also made the entry myself. Neither work

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

Well thats sad .. works really well .. for many people .. and me!

:(

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

What version of tf3d do people have this running successfully on? My unsuccessful version is 2.1.38420.2

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

I can confirm that it does not work on the Imagio.

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

I've now had it for about 24 hours............It may not work right on schedule, but it is definitley updating much more often than it was, and never getting to the 2 hour mark.

I'm on the 30 minute cab...sometime it updates every 30 minutes, sometimes 45, 1 hour ect....but not too much past that yet.

Thank for the cabs.

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

work for me on my tmo tp2

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

does anyone have it working a a similar version of TF3D

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

So no verizon stock rom users have this working?

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

does 2.1 weather settings have the auto update drop down menu in settings like in the stock tab settings

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

My stock verizon 2.1 TF3D has the update automatically option

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

So did mine, but it never worked & was useless anyway as it only updates every 3 hours.

~John

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

yeah but does it give you an option to set the time like in the stock market tab settings

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

Yes but doesn't it effect the stock tab and not weather

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

no, it doesn't

~John

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

It does give you an option for updates. Jmorton is misspoken. That option is only visible after you add a stock

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

Just wondering....How often does the data source update? If you are updating every 15 minutes but the weather channel data (or whoever is providing it) only updates once an hour, the phone can be updating but the data being displayed will only change once an hour.

Re: SOLVED - 2.1 weather update frequency!!
 

what i meant is in the weather tab settings does it give you an option to download weather every 5 min 10 min 15 min 20 min ect ect
