Here you might need to install both. Can't remember where I found them so credit to whoever created them. Worked for me!

Any chance you could make this work in Canada?? Thanks, looks like a great app!

Thanks, I hope it works on a german rom.
I can install the prog an I can install the widgets, but I can`t start them. I start the widget, than comes the message from the cost for the datas and than the widgets doesent starting. Any idea perhaps ?

Here's how I do it. Using SkyFire Browser, Go too www.radioreference.com . Sign up for an account (it's free) You may want to use your PC to sign up for the account just because it's easier, and follow the steps to get to your area and choose from all of the scaner feeds in your area, find the best one and favorite it in your skyfire bookmarks. I live in Pittburgh PA and I have it favorited where I can hear all the police, fire, and ambulances in the entire city, it works great. Just make sure you use skyfire becuase the scanner player uses Flash.
I hope that Helps..
Thanks.

EDIT: Never mind I just noticed it does have Canada listed in the countries but I still can't seem to get it to work. Can anyone who has this working post instructions for the rest of us? Thanks!

Fire Brigade will, as well as some things like Airports & Trains, but Police & Ambulance use encrypted digital radios here now.

Use weather watcher instead, it's better and free.

Good job of suppling the requested information.
You can use weather.com to get the info. Here is yours: USMA0502

I know, right?
Why bother to supply the information when weather watcher is better software, uses up less resources, is free, and doesn't require you to know any codes to begin with?
I figured I was doing him a favor hehe
Can weather watcher be used like spb in Ultimate launcher?

Not familiar with ultimate launcher. What is exactly do you want it to be able to do?
Ultimate laucher is a tab interface...I want a 5 day forcast displayed on the today screen along with some buttons..I have it set up and working with Spb weather...and i did figure out how to put the source code in..however the template im using seems to be off a little..but it works for now unless i can find something better

a while back i wrote a script that you can use with spb weather. It will pull information from environment canada website. There is another script, with that you can pull information from theweathernetwork.com website. You can find those on spb forums.
Weather Watcher is not a today screen plugin and doesn't have support for that, so if you want it displayed on the today screen then you're out of luck that way. But I will tell you, I've used both of them, and I highly recommend ww over spb as I don't need my weather taking up room on my today screen. Have you already purchased spb or using the trial still?
Howto - your zip from weather.com

*you can find the info here --> http://www.spbclub.com/forum/viewto...&start=0&sid=68ff6a30254c9d517b2d25a30fcc9d87
There is a weather.com template as a file download half-way down the page
*Alt support (just in case) http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/weather/support/support_article388.html
*Also, how to get your weather.com city code (I think someone already gave it to youbut here)
"You have to use the weather.com city code... not the zip code. Go to weather.com and search for your city/state without the zip code. Then look in the address bar for the code. It will start with US** then 4 digits where the ** represents the 2 letter abbreviation for your state."

No I havnt bought it yet (seems to work forever for me anyway wink). after using it for a few days i can see that i dot really need it on my today scree...but i seem to have a memory leek somewhere...not using the phone for 6 hours after a soft reset i go from 22 ram to 16
spb site
SPG+B has a forum where you can find custom templates and data for adding cities
http://www.spbclub.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=28
I use spb weather as a tab on my spb plus as it is nice on the today screen.
I use weather watcher for the detailed data, but it is slower as it must be loaded. Both have a valid use.

Any GPS software for this phone???
Anybody?

Links are on 1st page, link takes you to 22nd page. Install everything from page 1, and then you have link on 22nd page for apk, or just google for NDrive-9.3.02_HP_rc1.apk, and install that apk, not one from the 1st page.

I have the same issue above, I can see users on the hub. But cannot see anything no matter what I type.
I also tried Touchwords from april32.com and it crashes on my hd2
15touch works great though..
noellenchris, please re-download and try TouchWords again
try one of these hubs:
hub.ghostland.ro
kupchino.sknt.ru
myhub.se
some other hubs do not allow to search while you have not share
i have tried all hubs, and still no results

Omg I think I love you! I've been looking for something like this for ages!! Cheers man, ill try it out soon!!
Awesome! I had been looking for a program just like this.
It works really well on my Touch Pro.
After it is connected, it is very fast.
The preloaded hubs didnt work for me, but after I added and tried a few others it was working great.
This is great, beats out PocketDC with ease - working fine for me on HD2.
Any plans to add chat functionality? That's what I primarily use DC for.
Thank all of you for your kind words =)
onslaught86,
Chat functionality can be added right now, but we thinking about interface
Downloaded and installed. Everything looks awesome and runs pretty snappy.
Problem though, I can't connect to any of the hubs, they all say offline. Anyone have a list of hubs i can try? I'm kinda new to this...
Thanks!
awesome !! i would like to say a big thank YOU !!! really really great app !!!! 10*

[Q] Facebook places

Hi guys, done a search so don't think this has been asked before. Has anyone managed to get facebook places working reliably on the hd2? From my initial hunting around I've been trying various html5 enabled browsers with intermittent success. Any advice appreciated.

I'm sure I've read they have to support HTML5, so anybody know which ones do. HTML5 is very new and AFAIK there is no browser for WM with full HTML5 support, there may be some betas with partial support, they would need the geolocation part of HTML5 to be implemented. I'm about to try Iris now
maybe this'll help some of you (PM by Xenton; thanks!):
I couldn't post this as I'm new here and it has links so here ya go:
Right been at this most of the day now, the most promising course of action would be to google gears which adds geolocation functions to browsers. It only works with very specific browsers though, one being Opera Mobile 9.51 (Presto build 2.1.0+) it's available via Opera's FTP site at ftp://ftp.opera.com/pub/opera/winmobile/951b2 download "opera_v9.5beta2_gears.cab" and install launch the browser then goto gears.google.com and click install. It will prompt you to reboot your phone. Now relaunch the browser and navigate to touch.facebook.com try to use places, you should get a warning that your location information is being accessed via gears, click okay and you should be good to go.
I got as far as a suggested list of places for my location but nothing on the screen would respond.

It's been a while since I was trying to get this to working and I gave up, so this information may not be up to date but there were no apps that worked with places, the touch.facebook website did but needed a browser with HTML 5 support, I tried many browsers, finally a combination of browser and addon that should of worked but didn't. I think I'm correct in saying android and iPhone have browsers that work nicely wptg the Facebook touch site but WinMo has neither a browse nor an app that works wptg places. I did give up on this a while bin now, and would love for someone to tell me I'm wrong...
......EDIT: It works!!! I installed 4.1 from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6392459&postcount=2 (this is the page the download app button on their facebook page links to) and it prompted me to update to the latest version and then, places was working, just like that amazing, I'm well pleased. Also had a play with the latest better, kept freezing and crashing but it looks very promising, an awesome app!
yeah i was using it for places but now when i go to places it locks up
It's still working for me, try uninstalling and they reinstalling, that might fix it, it is a beta still and is not rock solid stability wise yet.

Just bought this phone

I bought this phone on ebay a while back and i'm just wondering can anybody give me some information about the phone e.g. Best GPS program , best audio player etc .
This is my first time having a Windows Mobile phone and also my first time even having a smart phone ..
As mobile browser I got Opera mini, works great. Think you can get it from m.opera.com.
For movies use CorePlayer. Best mediaplayer IMO.
I got NoData for when I'm traveling, and don't wanna end up with a huge bill.
SMSBubbles is a tiny bit buggy but it works. It allows a popup with the incomming text to appear on your screen, so you can read what the text says without having to navigate.
McGuider: great navigation; make sure you get the smartphone version
If you intend to use your own headphones to listen to music; use this here. There's a coupon; SH5OFF which will give you 5% off everything. Free shipping worldwide.
For the software I suggest you use the search button to get the most recent versions.
Good luck
thanks great reply !
I checked out McGuider earlier but didnt see this phone in the list of compatible devices ?
you just try to go to ---> http://www.freewareppc.com/download/utilities/cabinstl.shtml there you can find many free applications that are compatible for your device
Can anyone tell me does Google Maps have a sat nav feature or is it just like basic maps?
