Thank you very much. It worked exactly like you said for my Verizon 8830. BBWeather rocks.

[exsterminator]

What is the Over the Air Wireless Link? I still cannot work out how to do this bloody thing! Someone pls give me the ABC walk-through . . .

I just loaded BB Weather onto my 8830. Went thru the step by step instructions and got to the Options screen and there is no Location ID or Description field to be found. Just the INtervals, Temperture Colors and Disable MDS.

Any ideas? Seems like it didn't load right.

[bigfattony]

Nevermind. That's what I get for getting up early in the morning to do this stuff.

It helps if you click on the *Empty* Profile field and add that "missing" information there!

Duh!

Download OTA through your default browser (not opera mini) or via DM 3rd Party Application List - BlackBerryFAQ.com

Thanks for the advice, I know of someone that cannot get BBWeather to work for the life of him, apparently it used to work until he did a OS update. I will point him to this thread and see if it helps him out.

[davidlleroy]

Thanks for the details! Worked without a problem

[bolistik]

i got the app via DM and followed the walkthrough. WOrked like a charm.

[Kcorbett]

Thanks for the walkthrough! I was pulling my hair out with that initial error message/freezing up. Works perfect now.

[camattin]

Same here... I tried it once and experienced the lockup on my 8830. Now it's working like a charm!

Got everything to work except getting an "Open tunnel - failure" message. Does anybody know the TCP settings for Rogers? Called Rogers - as usual they are unable to help!

[John Clark]

Carrier specific APN/TCP settings - BlackBerryFAQ.com

[alanta]

To John Clark - thanks for tip to carrier specific TCP settings. After several calls to Rogers, got them to add internet.com access to my account. "Open tunnel - failure" message now has turned into "Malformed address - Returning null connection". Any ideas?

Duh!

i highlight empty and click the trackball and it ask me to save or close? im going to start pulling my hair.

[alanta]

OK - so put it down to sloppiness. All my troubles with TCP settings, etc. was due to an inadvertant space after the "internet.com" in the APN field for Rogers TCP setting. Thanks to all for the expert advice.

BBWeather is a very impressive little program.
