I recently got myself a Polaris (original danish ROM), and would very much have my own city in the HTC Home Weather tab. I've tried to edit the Windows\HH_0406_Weather.xml. Couldn't edit it with Total Commander so I edited it on my pc and uploaded it to my device. This doesn't work, all I get is an error saing that it can't retrieve information at the time and i should retry. I also tried Shap's Advanced Configuration Tool, and added my city there, but that doesn't work either.

How can I add my city to HTC Home Weather tab?

Ps. My Accuweather code is: EUR|DK|DA009|STRUER

thats a bit tricky you have to patch your HTCHome.dll with a new URL which does not limit the Cities. I've done that i can upload this dll if you want.

If you've got an originial ROM then HTCHome Plugin is found in the programs folder otherwise most likely in the windows folder.

if you will use the patched DLL you have to switch off these things with singed drivers or software. otherwise execution will be prevented by windows.
