You'll need to download the HTC patched home dll for the touch and the custom weather database. Copy both files to /Windows,wait 1 minute or so, and soft reset. It should work fine after that.

Hello and thank you very much for responding to my post on another thread.

Can you please add Novato, California and Mount Pleasant, South Carolina to the database?

Thank you for your consideration,

Chris

I have created an extensive database. it lists every city and zip code in the united states. Some zipcodes cover more than one city. Also, some (a lot) cities have more than one zipcode.

it can be found here.

Feel free to incorporate as much or as little as you'd like into your updated cities file.

I downloaded the latest city database file from the link in the first post, since this latest link doesn't work (for me), but now my main big city (Raleigh, NC) doesn't show correct high/low temps. Both are 32 degrees now. I added my local small town, and it shows somewhat OK high/low temps (compared to local forecasts), but the current temp is 32 (NOT).
I also don't get the pretty weather graphics for my location (Four Oaks, NC 27524), although accuweather has no problem with this zip in a browser.

Maybe the whole shebang could be pointed to another weather source, like weather.com.

What does it take to make a location work properly these days, anyway?

EDIT: Solved my problem with the latest link, and got the new database. Didn't fix the other issues, though. Bummer.

EDIT: Got a look at the new database, and my state capital isn't even in it. Used to be. I was using it for weather, since it was the closest to me, and it's raining there. The rain drops and the wiper are a pleasant surprise and almost make this whole experience worthwhile.
