HTC Home Weather XML Files

I Thought It Would Be Good To Have A Thread Where People Can Post The XML Files For Their City For Others To Download. It Would Cut Down On The Number Of People Who Query If Their Town/City Is Supported.
So Please Reply With Your City And Country (Theres More Than Just One Birmingham In The World ) And The XML Files You Used.
Cheers

Visit AccuWeather.com - World Weather
Find your city and bring up its weather forecast in your browser.
Look at the URL and copy the location code from the end of the URL (will look something like locCode=OCN|AU|TAS|HOBART)
It should consist of 4 sections eg: OCN|AU|TAS|HOBART (Region|Country|State|City)
Go to the windows directory on your PPC
Copy the HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml to your desktop
Open in Notepad and insert an XML tag in to the list.
For Hobart, it would look like this:
Code:
<city name="Hobart, AU" locationcode="OCN|AU|TAS|HOBART"/>
Make sure that the tag starts with a < and ends with a />
Replace the file in your windows directory
All done

List of different provider store names

Everyone knows this url:
catalog.zune.net /v3.2/ en-US/apps?clientType=WinMobile%207.0&store=<storename>
But I haven't found a complete list of store names yet, so I wanted to start one. Help is appreciated!
TMODE - T-Mobile Germany
Samsung - Manufacturer store
HTC - Manufacturer store
LGE - LG Electronics Manufacturer store
Dell - Dell Manufacturer store
ATT - US AT&T
TMOUS - T-Mobile US
Starhub - Starhub Singapore
O2ODE - O² Germany
I would be especially interested in the store name of SingTel...
Maybe someone knows the store name for "Orange UK"?
"ATT" for US AT&T
"TMOUS" for T-Mobile US
Does someone know the name for Telstra? I'd like to have a look at Whereis Navigator...
Download the garmin xap from the US store, it contains resources for the Whereis app and may be useful to you (unless you want to use the xap to navigate of course)
Telus

What is the purpose of this? I have sprint if you tell me how find it Ill try to post
Singtel and M1 Singapore.
does someone knows the register key to change the provider? I can't find it anywhere on the forum..
What about NOKIA?
HKLM\System\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo\MobileOperator
Be carful with changing the MobileOperator. Doing it too often, it will invalidate DRM store (and ANY marketplace application will stop working).
There is a topic about this on xda.

New Dev Tools! Coming May 2011!

Yay! As from mailed by: "[email protected]" (dev)
"
New Windows Phone Dev Tools for the next version of Windows Phone Available in May
Earlier this month at MIX we announced that we will release in May a new set of Windows Phone Developer Tools for the next version of Windows Phone. Developers can use the new tools to create the next-generation of Windows Phone apps and games, which will be faster, more capable, and more deeply integrated with the next version of Windows Phone.
The next version of Windows Phone will be available to consumers later this year and will introduce many features, such as multitasking, the best mobile Web experience with IE9 and HTML 5, support of real time communication and messaging, twitter integration with the People Hub, and a broader connectivity to Skydrive.
The new Developer Tools will allow you to write apps that make full use of multitasking via fast application switching and background agents; runtime and framework enhancements with over 1,500 new APIs and the support of Silverlight 4, access to new sensors, on-device SQL CE database, and Phone Contacts and Calendar stores; socket support to enable networking communication beyond HTTP; XNA/Silverlight Integration; and an improved Push Notification and Live Tile experience. The new Developer Tools will also include a new emulator will full support for accelerometer and GPS location data.
We are very excited about the opportunities the new release will create for developers, and we look forward to the next wave of innovation in apps and games.
For more details on the new features supported by the next version of Windows Phone and the new Developer Tools check out the MIX Webcasts!
Extended Marketplace Opportunities in the next version of Windows Phone
Also at MIX, we presented a comprehensive list of new features that will improve the Windows Phone Marketplace experience for both consumers and developers with the next version of Windows Phone.
For consumers, the new Windows Phone Marketplace experience will include an improved design with panes and more panoramas, a better search experience with autocomplete queries and search results grouped by app, music, or games sections. A new jump list and a soft-search button will make it easier to find installed apps on Windows phones. (fiinix: well, the leaked search button, that a guy by accident cam'ed (Link to post))
For developers, the new Windows Phone Marketplace experience will introduce new Beta and Private Distribution services and a more streamlined app submission flow. More details on the certification status of apps will be available in the App Lifecycle tab and an updated Dashboard will provide notifications and important performance indicators. Developers will also be able to perform more granular data analysis and filtering with the ability to export data from the download and payout reports to XML.
Finally, we will extend the reach of the Windows Phone Marketplace from 16 to 35 countries, increasing the market potential for your apps and games. The 19 new end-user countries are:
Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Greece, Hungary, India, Japan, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Russia, South Africa, South Korea, Sweden and Taiwan. (fiinix: Yay! Netherlands and Sweden (My countries get Marketplace, no need to cross UK account anymore?))
"
Nice!
Chile will have full marketplace support now!
Can we imagine hackers May be port Mango on devices from the SDK tools release in May?
Thanks for the info
Will developers have access to mango beta at the same time ? I think it was mentioned in MIX 11 that there will be a beta version available for download.
I have asked the WP7 support via Twitter and they said nothing has been announced officially :-(
Anyhow I think there will be a beta version before the official, we just don't know when.

yeah saw that email. Nice cant wait to play with it.
What I dont understand is if you compile an app using these new apis will we be able to test it on a device and submit it to the marketplace or do we need seperate tools and compile for pre mango without those apis and post mango?
That will be a bit ****, certainly if there is no mango for devs so we cant test on real devices.

It will be the same as when devs were given access to the emulator before the RTM release of Windows Phone. Some developers will be given Mango to test on - just like some people received developer devices.
Most of us will not be able to test the changes on devices until Mango is released. Only high-profile clients and a limited number of developers will most likely have access to a Mango build.

highly doubt that rumor is true. Microsoft nl said dutch language support will come, this is why existing users bought wp7 they promised the support coming in april with nodo but it became mango. It would be stupid not to give them the native language support after promises and delays of approx 6 months (assumin mango in september). We will get our dutch language support, thats what I read and what I believe. It wont boost sales if they will treat their customers otherwise. Just a brainless rumor and I believe they even misquoted their french source (bad translation, causes a bunch of brainless panic). Certainly in our country and the other new language supported countries being multi-lingual is very important so those languages (the current plus the native) are essential.

SMR Update Schedules and Bulletins

Here is a list of the major Canadian carriers and flankers update schedules. They should be similar for the rest of the Americas at least.
Please add to this list for your region or carrier.
Some are more thorough than others, some less.
I've also included LG's SMR bulletin and Android AOSP SMR bulletin.
Google devices will almost always get updates first. SMR, OS and otherwise.
I actually think LG isn't doing too bad for this device, glad I chose Android one.
