Assuming Ava's zip is 65608 here is and updated file. Just use total commander or equivalent and put it into your windows folder to overwrite the current one. Then all you have to do is select the city in the weather tab:)

I figured out how to make the second weather tab work with another theme. If anyone is interested this is how I did it. I'm sure there is an easier way but this worked for me.

1) Back up current theme in M2DC.
2)
a- With total commander go into windows>themes you will find the backup you just made and rename it to "originalbackup"
b- (optional) copy originalbackup.m2dct and go into program files and create a folder called M2DC. Now put all your .m2dct themes in this folder and when you have time direct M2DC to that folder to add all the themes in it. This just keeps things clean.
3) Go into settings>today and disable touchflo.
4) Take new theme files and put them in the windows folder or the m2dct and put that into the new M2DC folder you created.
5) Go into settings>today and turn touchflo back on. (now when you go back to your home screen some of the tabs will be messed up. This is ok for now.
6) Go into M2DC and create a back up of the current theme (the new one loaded)
7) Now go into M2DC and add the originalbackup.m2dct and apply it. (You will now notice your second weather tab is not there)
8) Reboot
9) Go into settings>today and disable touchflo.
10) Take attached HTCHomeSettings.xml and put it into your windows foler. You may have to overwrite the original.
11) Go into settings>today and turn touchflo back on.
12) Reboot
13) Back into M2DC and choose the backup of the newer theme and hit apply.

You should now have your new theme with the second weather tab:)

In my theme to make things cleaner I copied-
hh_fw_bigicon_weather
hh_fw_tabbg_weather
hh_fw_tabicon_weather
Then I added a 2 to look like
hh_fw_tabicon_weather2.png
Disable touchflo again and copy those three files to the windows folder and now they all look uniform:)

I am using this theme here.. Here are some screenshots. This whole thing was much easier than it seems:)

yes you will be able to go right back to sprint that will not be a problem at all. that is what so great about this community and windows mobile phones. No matter what you do, someone is there to help you, and you can always go back to the orginal rom, to fix any mistakes you might have.

Hey con, I was wondering if you could tell me what the "pagepool" is and iv been reading about "D3D" drivers installed on custom ROMs, but I dont really understand what that is either? could you explain please?

Re: UPDATED 10-21-08 Manilla 2D Alltel 6.1
 

pagepool is the system memory set on the device. i use the standard almost always, I do not see a real speed differnece in the mb file.

what the pagepool does is it sets aside an amout of memory, and when the device is trying to load a program it will call on that extra memory to load that program faster. the standard size is 12 mb, and you can change it up to around 64 mb. you set the pagepool before you flash the rom.

D3D drivers will not work on the vogue. they are the direct 3d drivers that can be used on the 7500 chipset, but HTC never released the drivers with the device, and no one has been able to get them ported over, and i really doubt it will ever happen. people are now moving on to the diamond and touch pro. I include a differnet version of d3d, it is from the omnia phone. and it is said to help speed up the overall UI of the phone. if it is true or not i am not sure. but it is there anyways.

Awesome,thanks. I been wondering about that for a while now. BTW did you notice the MSG sent bubble is back on. I think you had it off on the last update.
