Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

Am I the only one who cant see this app in Ovi Store?

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

No, I cannot see it either, and if I use the direct link I get redirected to the OVI store homepage. Sucks :)

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

I had the same problem with not seeing WeatherBug in the store from my N900, and being redirected after clicking on the link to the main store.

Here's what I did to solve this;

1. Access the Ovi Store from your N900.
2. Select the first app that you see (Firefox for me)
3. Edit the link now.
For example if you selected Firefox, delete everything on the URL and just leave http://store.ovi.mobi/content/26002
4. Replace 26002 with 36046 and hit ENTER.
5. Download WeatherBug.

Hope this helps!

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

The above method worked. I just don't understand why I have to do them to access app... that's totally against the purpose of Ovi Store, but we all know how crappy the execution of Ovi Store for N900 is anyway.

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

Can anyone share the .install file?

Being in the UK, I'd like to try it out for the widget but its not in the UK store yet.

I can find it on the store by doing what itsANDREW says but no download link!!

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

TheMathMan:

Per my knowledge, there is no widget available for the WeatherBug app yet.

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

I downloaded weatherbug's install file with my pc using firefox and user agent switcher add-on with this agent:

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux armv7l; en-GB; rv:1.9.2b6pre) Gecko/20100318 Firefox/3.5 Maemo Browser 1.7.4.8 RX-51 N900

With 900 and microb i can't find the weatherbug app in ovi store. Why ??

By the way, very good app. Thanks.

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

I totally agree... Jump thru hoops to download a program?? Really?? Anyway, I found it here yesterday (TheNokiaBlog) and here's a link directly to it.

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

if you go new in bottom of the page it shows

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

Nope. In my N900 with microb and default user agent the new option doesn't show the weatherbug app.

With the same (N900 v1.2) user agent but using my PC firefox web browser the new option does show the weatherbug app.

This is very odd as in both situations the user agent reported in whatsmy useragent.com is exactly the same. :confused:

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

Yeesh!

Just go to >> http://store.ovi.mobi/content/36046

...with your N900 as itsANDREW posted.

It works. Be thankful that someone still can think on his feet. Complaining about the OVI store or Nokia on this site is useless because no one here can do a dang thing about it. It's like complaining to the freakin' Post office because the cookies Grandma sent you in the mail were stale.

BTW, I'm glad it isn't a widget. Vlad's OMWeather Widget is still the best on my weather desktop.

But... Can you spot the weather bug in this pic? :)

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

Probably easiest going to the silly alarm program, because all you need to do is replace the last two digits. Installed just fine for me.

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

Yes, thanks for itsANDREW for posting the link. I think guys in WeatherBug should really do something about it, like burning down the entire OVI shop and piss on the ash of their corpse so as to set things right.

(Or just talk to them to save the fuel)

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

I would actually love it if it was also possible to be a widget. I know some people prefer it just being an application shortcut.

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

You're very welcome guys! Glad I could help in some way.

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

I agree that a widget is very convenient, but since widget drains electricity, I kinda like the app version.

Of course, it'd be great if it has both.

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

Using it as we speak. Excellent addition to the OVI store! :)

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

excellent app thanks for the link couldvbb

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

Explain the pic please. looks very nice, how can I get those icons and what app is it Omweather with weatherbug icon??

I'm confused, could you give us a walk thru, please!!

Thanks!

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

you have to select applications first then on the bottom new thats how it worked on mine

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

For some reason, it doesn't show up on the Ovi Store when I access from my phone and shows when I log in using my computer! :/

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

Download link for weatherbug: http://store.ovi.com/content/36046?c...a=applications

Thanks. I already have weatherbug installed and running on my N900.

However what i can't understand is why weatherbug doesn't appear when browsing with n900 microb even after clearing cache and cookies and selecting applications / new.
Only my pc can see it in ovistore. :eek:

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

ovistore is useless... I can't understand why we have to use this pice of [####] to install Applications for your N900?

Okay, 1995 was it okay. And it could look good at a marketing presentation. But we have 2010 and very good working repositories.

So why they have not uploaded Weatherbug to Maemo Extras?

It's annoying to get forced to use ovi-store to get such a great software on our Device!

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

About Weatherbug..

It's a really nice app. but I'd like the satview to default to "IR Sattelite" instead of the as far as I can judge quite useless (in Denmark at least) "US Dobbler Rader".

Also, if I switch to "IR Sattelite" it seems to drop back to the default "US Dobbler Rader" after some time..

Any hints on this? :)

Also, what is the camera-view supposed to do? I only get "No camera data"..

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

From what I've read, it should be the view outside your local weather station. Presumably yours doesn't have a camera.

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

Actually the settings are in ~/.config/AWS/WeatherBug.conf

It's pretty straigt forward to edit..

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
 

I don't know what to make out of this app. It doesn't seem to be showing the correct temperature in my area. It's reporting 6 degrees celsius when I know it's not that cold. It's a summer midafternoon today in Toronto !

Re: Weatherbug for N900, looks good!
