WinterBoard update does not show Wallpaper

[Bear Hunter]

I didnt notice any new 'private' folder in the theme I was using.

If you don't have one, put one in. It should work. Let me know, It is working for me.

It does work for me. I copied the LockBackground.html and Wallpaper.html files from Wbweatherwidget folder into my theme folder. I also copied the whole /private folder in Wbweatherwidget into my theme folder. Then I dragged my theme folder on top of my Wbweatherwidget folder in WinterBoard, I deleted the Wallpaper.png folder I had previously inserted in the Wbweatherwidget folder, and finally it all works, even without the wallpaper.png file in the Wbweatherwidget folder.

2nd update . . where isit . . i dun see any . . i tried ur method . . but its abit troublesome if i have to change wallpaper each time zz

As far as the weather widgets and time html

You guys have it backwards. There is no need to rename the "Wallpaper.png" to widget or copy any "Wallpaper.png" to where the widget is.

SSH into your phone and look at the folders inside your current theme. You will see that there is now a "private" folder there. All you have to do is copy the "Wallpaper.html" to your current theme and copy all the files from your weather or time widget into the "private" folder within your theme. Bam - your done and all your files are in one place and you don't have to have weather or time in the "Dim Wallpaper.theme" folder or have to rename anything.

In summary, the new widget functionality allows you to merge it to your current theme instead of choosing multiple themes in winterboard.

if lets say i do not have a theme ? where do i place the wallpaper.html file to ? there is not private folder

You must have al least one theme, otherwise you wouldn't be interested in things like WinterBoard and WbApp and WbWeatherWidget

wat im saying is that i do not have a theme eg. blackberry.theme in theme folder . . so how am i going to copy those files u mention into it ? i have actually selected "user wallpaper.theme" in winterboard so as to display my wallpaper in springboard . . but upon installing wbapp and on the weather widget . . my wallpaper disappear . . how to overcome it . . sorry abit noob

BTW, Bear Hunter's method is not immune from bugs. I found an incompatibility between Lock Status and WbWeatherWidget. On the Lock Screen, I can display one or the other. Possibly, this can be fixed by copying .html files and /private folder in the Lock Status folder. I haven't done it yet. I'll let you know. Indeed, I wonder if one should copy only Wallpaper.html in the main theme folder and only LockBacground.html in the Lock Status folder (but /private in both folders, of course). Anybody knows? Bear Hunter?

EDIT: it does not work for me. I copied the files and private folder in the Lock Status folder, but it does not fix the incompatibility between WbWeatherWidget and Lock Status icons on the lockscreen

i have install the new wbapp on cydia 0.76 . . the widget works . . go install that and forget all those copy here and there stuff

[netuser]

It is not logic to put weather and time widget inside you theme. This mean i have to copy X times my widget that as many themes i got. It is more logic to have a seperate widget theme so that it can be combined

Where is saurik ? is their any fix comming soon so that we can use weather outside please

UPDATE: New Winterboard in Cydia! Wallpapers are back!!!

Hello, how did you manage to change from

winterboard 0.9.2796-1 to 0.9.2939-1

how come it won't update or download?
I don't see the new one in cydia or icy even after a refresh of the source.
Thanks for the tips

[fleadog99]

i cant even get anything above .9.2397-1 cydia is not downloading updates for some reason.

[NSXrebel]

I just checked Cydia, the update is there folks. My wallpaper is working again!

iPhone 3G on 3.0, jailbroken with working Winterboard 0.9.2939-1 , all is good again.

[Atomic76]

Lucky you, still no luck to see the update after 24Hours, even after source refresh
Edit: Still no luck this Sunday! Nothing new
Edit2: After a new JB and Quickpn, everything is working, winterboard, Cycorder... I'm all set. Thx

Related question- I'm using the latest winterboard, as of today, and have a 2g running os 3.0. What I noticed was wallpapers were initially showing correctly as my background, and at some point they stopped showing. I have tried so many different things posted on these forums and elsewhere. Uninstalling/reinstalling winterboard, deleting themes, deleting various files suggested but to no avail. Is it possible some app I installed is conflicting, or rather causing my wallpapers to not show? Every other function of the themes work, lockscreen etc.

EDIT: skrewcommon was the culprit, just uninstalled it.
