DroidMod 1.0 Question

[Marine One#AC]

Hey all. First post in this section.
I installed DroidMod last night. It was my first time rooting my phone. All went well, but I do have one question. When I now put my phone in the cradle, the temperature shows only celsius. I have both the 2.1 desk clock and the News & Weather Widget installed. I've gone in everywhere I can find to ensure that the right boxes are checked/unchecked to get the temp to show farenheit, but can't seem to make this happen. Otherwise everything is working just fine. I'm starting to wonder if I should go back in and uncheck the News & Weather Widget.
Any thoughts?

What does the news and weather widget display c or f

 

[meshp1318]

It can display both, C and F. It's default to F on DM 1.0

I've had the same issues with DM and Sholes. The weather app is in F but the dock app shows in C. Everything I've seen so far shows it set to display in F.

Then go and check the settings on the news and weather widget. I just verified with my phone the clock gets its weather setting from news and weather widget

Then its most likely broken in those roms

Done all that, still shows in *C when in the cradle, *F when out. Same issue was posted at www.droidmod.org>bugs in droidmod v1.0...

Yeah its just a bug kinda weird I know mine functions correct

I also noticed that and removed the apk from system apps (and added the working one).
You could reinstall the rom without the news and weather and install the working one as an app.
Pretty easy.
or
manually remove it and install the correct one.

Has anyone sent the dev a note on this? They seem respoinsive and really plugged into the community using their product. I don't use docks. So, it's really not an issue for me. Someone with first hand knowledge should tell the dev.

I'll probably reinstall w/o the news and weather. Any idea what the name of the app is?

Its not in the market.
This is a modified OEM apk.

the news and weather wiget eats batteries anyway.. better off without it..

 

[Roy Aguilera]

You need it to display the weather on the media dock. I have it installed but don't use the widget.

 

[Marine One#AC]

If you don't mind, please walk me through how I do this?

 

[Roy Aguilera]

How to remove it?

Or how to get it?

How to get and install so it will show on the desk clock. I've removed by reinstalling the ROM without it.
