Hi everyone,
now here's a strange one (well, honestly every problem I encounter without understanding it, appears strange to me )
I have an HTC P3300 with the official WM6 from the HTC Site. I also installed the HTC.Kaiser.Home..with the 6 buttons.
My Problem concers the Weather Updates. At the beginning everything went fine. I connected myself at home to my wireless router, and downloaded the newest weather informations. (At the beginning I had some trouble to add cities that were not on the preinstalled list, but in the end I resolved this problem too.)
Yesterday, after more than a month where nothing went wrong, I suddenly had to re-enter my WPA-Code to access the router (no idea why). And from that moment on, I can not download any weather data. It doesn't matter if it is a city that I added or a city from the original list. On the other side, I still can download the QuickGPS data, and surf on the net. So the connection should work properly,...
Any ideas?
I already thank you in advance. I always could rely on the perfect solutions on this site.
have the same problem.
all was working before but now since one week, i can´t download weather data.

I was in the same boat as you ... have just downloaded and installed the updated cab .. all is well now
Cheers

Okay, but do you know, why this suddenly appears? I mean is it only a program error, or has it something to do with the fact that it happened simultaneously with the need to re-enter the WPA-code?
I just want to know the reason, before reinstalling everything, or before following the recommandations of the above posted link,...
Do I have to presume that the fact that I can no longer download weather data and the fact that all of a sudden I had to re-enter my WPA-code, are not related? No dark connection settings ruling the special weather data download, while all the other downloads are running normaly?
And does the link posted before, with the updated HTC Homeplugin with the working weather tab, works for everyone? Not that I don't believe Mark, just wanted to check? No bad feelings Mark! ;-)
Thanks for the help.
Here I am again. I have just re-installed my Homeplugin and now the weather tab is completly empy! The first line with the city name is empty, I still can click on it to access the city list, but there will be nothing displayed in the tab. Also the big field where the weather forecast should be, is empty, even no "could not download data", nothing, just a big black empty tab. :-(
Now I presume I have to download the patched cab file at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319187
Somebody can help me which file/files I have to download, because I do not really have a clear view on the hole thing anymore? I have P3300 wit WM6 (official HTC WM6). :-S
Thanks a lot.

Just curious, but what file did you download? I've read this link before and today I've been reading the instructions he gave in that link to a separate page, and I'm totally confused as to what the H*ll I'm supposed to do! There are so many options and files. I thought I knew a little about this stuff but, right now, I'm just take his advice to just leave you phone alone if you don't know what you're doing. I've been contempating this for over a month now.
Everything just works fine again. Thanks for all your help.
Here's the detail what I've made, perhaps it will help you shawndh, but I have also seen that N2A has now transferred everything to a new page http://weather.not2advanced.com/files/
- I uninstalled my Plugin
- I downloaded and installed the SdkCerts.cab
- I downloaded and installed the Shen-6tab-cab v2.1 with the N2A weatherpatch. On the new page, it is the second link under "Released patched versions of HTC Home" (if you too have a P3300 this is your plugin).
Hope I could help you. I know the old page was not very easy to understand, N2A helped me, thanks again. The new page seems a lot easier for newbies like me.

hey this has happened to me also!
from a similar and different problem.
at first, after a hard reset, the gps doesnt work well also it keeps searching until failed for several times. then i go for quick gps. wa-la there you go! then after i got the gps signal, the quick gps app said the data is expired so i had to download again and i did. after i finished downloading, the gps signal vanished completely.
for 2 days i tried to get the gps signal but it always failed miserably.
then on weekend, i`went to the hills, in one of the restaurant there i tried the gps again, and in just 3 seconds i got the signal!!! when i went back home, the gps has worked again until now.
i still dont know what exactly happen thou, but it might help to go to a higher ground to find a fix.
Try download the NEW version 3.2.0 Google Map at m.google.com from you device.
Choose Google Map. Download it and install... Give it a try~
Or check if you have FM Radio installed. If you have it, uninstall it and try again
Thanks For the replys i really appreciate them..
i installed new version of google maps
3.2.0 at least now it shows my location
within 80 meters.. before was within 200...
but still keep saying seeking GPS satellites..
about the FM radio.. that came installed with the phone..
so i dont think i can unistalled it...
thanks any ways..
Hi there,

Hi all, sorry if this has been asked before but i HAVE searched for this in the forum but couldn't find anyone with the same question..
i have an unlocked orange HTC Touch Pro 2. There is an official Orange W6.5 ROM upgrade from HTC's website and it is the one that is supported with my serial number..
my question is, will i "lose" the unlocking (and therefore the device will be locked to orange sims again) if i upgrade my rom? or will that not be affected?
thanks
answer
ok so since noone answered and i had downloaded the update and couldnt wait any longer to try it out, i went ahead and did the update..
for anyone who has the same question as i had, i now have wm6.5 all went well, 10min update, no problems at all. sim is also still unlocked and all works well

too late now no slowness at all.. very responsive. i actually had the mobile for just 1 day before this update so i might not be able to tell any difference in speed but it seems to have remained exactly the same in my opinion.. in the 'today items' settings, it says 'HTC Sense' but it seems like a colorfull TouchFlo3D to me XD weather gets your location and shows you the weather on the home screen under the clock. 'start' menu and other menus like settings are now in honeycomb style..
still getting used to it and discovering new stuff but so far so good

as far as i know you will lose any installed apps, any files, messages, contacts etc that are stored on the phone.. so back-up all you need on the flash card before you do it.. software will probably need to be re-installed afterwards though..
Yes you will lose everything that is stored on main memory
Thanks for that...i guessed as much.
Leadign on from that...I can no longer conect via usb cable....hasnt beening working for about a week....wont activesync either.

Hi guys,
I've been having problems with the way my desire works on my gmail account. first of all, the marketplace is unreachable 75% of the time on my phone (with 3g or H). My phone will most of the time not shut down (it just hangs at the message "shutting down"). Finally it took a night for the phone to download my 800 contacts in my google account.
It is very annoying and i've been researching the problem. I've tried rebooting or returing phone to factory settings but nothing seems to help. It is important to mention that i have a steady internet connection so i can get on the internet without any problems, only when i go to sites like "www.android.com/market" the phone is not able to load the page.
Does anyone else have this problem? and i would really like some help with this.
Thanks
I've been having the same troubles for a couple of days now. Are you on T-Mobile Netherlands by any chance?
Yes I am,
I've also been searching the t-mobile netherlands forum, and tweakers.net. Both of them have a topic about this problem. Yay for stupid t-mobile.
Hi all,
have had my Desire for a couple of months now, well pleased with it. I have not in any way modified it other than installed some apps from market. This afternoon after lunch while it was in my Brodit car holder I suddenly noticed it was asking for PIN code. Entered it, fine. But then a couple of minutes later, same thing again. And again.
Just now I was typing an SMS to somebody and just before finishing screen blanks out, then the screen asking for PIN comes up.
What the heck?
Anybody who has had similar problems and knows what causes/caused them?
I haven't had the battery or sim card out or anything, it just suddenly started doing this.
Cheers
//Joris
*edit*
I have tested switching off the phone, removing battery for a couple of mins then reinserting and rebooting, but same problem persists.
Wonderful, we're going on holidays in 2 days.... :'(
Well I couldn't for the life of me figure out what the problem was, tested with another SIM but same. Completely random, sometimes it would last half an hour sometimes not even a minute.
Did a clear storage/hard reset and after that all seems fine. Except for that my conversations were still there, but somehow if I get an sms from somebody now it's added to the wrong conversation. Then if I reply to it, it goes to the person in the conversation, not the person who sent the msg
Deleted all msgs now so should be sorted. Think a problem with all contacts syncing to and from Microsoft Outlook, it messed up all phone numbers like this:
46 2342423423
so no + and a space between country code and phone number. ANnoying as heck but haven't figured out if there's a setting in outlook or htc sync to solve this.

What ROM/Radio is it running?? is it unbranded??
I have no idea. Bought from Komplett here in Sweden, i.e. unbranded and unlocked. It's running what it came with since there haven't been any updates and I haven't the balls to start experimenting about with it
Strange, I just picked up my Desire today. I rooted it this evening and only noticed it happening after rooting it. I didn't run it for very long unrooted though, so I don't know if it's related. I wonder what's causing it.
maybe this helps:

Thanks but it goes to SIM lock rather than phone lock... like when you first switch on your phone. The phone doesn't reboot though, it just asks for the SIM pin all of a sudden, even when you're doing something on it.

i also had this problem (well more or less) for me it happened when my cellphone signal dropped to limited service (or no services at all) after the phone picks up a signal again its asks for a pin. you mind want to check this out aswell. i fixed this by going into the settings and fiddling around with network/mobile operator settings and such, soz i cant remember exactly, but this did the trick for me.
hope it helps.
I was going to take it back to the shop when I thought I'd try a different ROM first. I installed the OpenDesire 3.0.1 Froyo ROM last night and so far it hasn't done it yet. Maybe the official Froyo ROM won't have that problem either.
Tester app
Hi
I've been having the same problem on my X10 Mini Pro for the last couple of days. To try and figure out what's causing this I've made a small app that checks the sim-status periodically. If it's not available or a pin-code is required for unlocking it the phone starts vibrating plus default notification-sound.
If you're fast you can check your device's LogCat with aLogCat (available from market). At least you'll get notified that you're unreachable
Since I have no Market-account yet you have to upload it to your phone manually with adb. Search google for a howto.
See attached file.
Hi!
Do you have Exchange 2010 sync?
Hi have the same porblem with LG Optimus 2x.
