Is it me, or is the custom database function of HHC for weather not working on the tilt with wm 6.1? It worked great on 6.0, but after installing 6.1 and running hhc and re-building my cities none will work when I select the custom database.(the default database cities work)
Thanks.

It's working great on my tilt, I think it's just you, where did you get your rom at?

It is not working for me either. I had used htchome-2.1-hermes-n2a on my 6.0 Tilt and it worked great. From what I can tell, the n2a is a service provided by a forum member for using custom cities. I have tried his process for patching the htc_home.dll on the 6.1 Tilt, but it did not work. My Tilt froze on reset and I had to do a hard reset.
Has anyone been successful at using all functions of HHC with the AT&T 6.1 Tilt rom?

look for HTC Home plug in. Save it to computer, drag it to your tilt.
Move it your windows file. Run HHC to put in your custom city.

It's not working here either. My cities show up but it won't download the weather for any of them. Luckily I have the HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml file and can at least add my city again.

The HTC home plugin workaround is linked in my signature.

the poster above was correct, the n2a version of HTC Home is a modified version that allows you to pull weather from a different source then HTC.
It's kind of crappy for AT&T to put a plugin that only works with certain cities and is not customizable by the user. I edited the HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml file to add my own city, even that won't work.
Note to AT&T... call HTC and have them add more cities to their db!
EDIT: And talk about slowing down a device... wow! I haven't used the HTC HOme plugin for a while and now I remember why I hated it. When it's updating weather, it's slow as hell....

I used the method toward the bottom of the first post from the fallowing thread to get it to work:

Good luck...
