BerryWeather 2.2.01 Released Brings With It Great News For Developers

Bellshare has released their latest version of BerryWeather. This update is a little different from the standard operations of an update however. Bellshare has decided it's high time they opened up their awesome Weather application for other developers to make use of the information it provides. Developers now have the option to use data from BerryWeather in their own applications.

One of the first apps to make use of this integration is Ultimate Lock, which was also updated to coincide with the new BerryWeather release. I'm quite certain as newer applications are released, quite a few other developers will be making use of the data BerryWeather can provide much like how theme developers are now requested in droves to include a dedicated weather slot in their themes. If you're a developer, you can read more about the BerryWeather 3rd party app access via the Bellshare forums.

This 1st thing is truely Whack... Great you are the first to place a comment down.. Dont understand the importance of being First. Especially when you offer nothing of importances on the topic at hand.. Is your life that in need of an ego boost, that you waste your time trolling the boards hoping to get your chance to type 1st down.. Anyone partaking in such things really needs to find a life.. Or simple grow up.. The pre-teen antics are tiresome.. Good luck with that...

I feel that I need to mention it is not 'one of the first' but THE first and ONLY for now!

what theme that is. Looks like a droid theme but I like the little bit of info on the left side. Is it available for the storm?

Posted by sokar42 Friday, Mar 05, 2010 709 days ago

That is the storm version as I recall.

That is the lock screen for Ultimate Lock illustrating the integration of BerryWeather with the App.

i love it when people assume there is something to be won in every post

So is there still a free version of this app? Is this the upgrade to the free version as well?

Posted by rcocchiararo Friday, Mar 05, 2010 708 days ago

how does this work on non touch devices ?

more importantly, since .484+

the lock button can't activate it...

kinda bummer, until it gets updated.

Posted by Fargo Friday, Mar 05, 2010 708 days ago

This will be a very nice feature for dev's to have available. Good job, Bellshare!

Benexus... pretty cool theme. Icons are a little large and with they changes the "X" when highlighting/selecting an icon, but otherwise its near perfect.

Recently purchased Berryweather..is there still another upgrade chage for the 2.2.01?

Posted by savjr Saturday, Mar 06, 2010 708 days ago

This is a great app; works well for when I travel, but this most recent update gave me troubles with BES.

Posted by Nelimungous Saturday, Mar 06, 2010 708 days ago

Is it sucking your battery dry by constantly using data? This app seems to be my latest battery sucker.

Updated to this version of Berryweather OTA from 2.x (don't remember) via the app store and Berryweather no longer works on my Tour

Verizon Tour 9630 v4.7.1.61 (cause I run Mac and can't update to leaked 5.X easily)
Facebook, Ubertwitter, Viigo

Here's what I get-

Error starting Berryweather:
Class
'net.rim.device.api.ui.TransitionContext' not found

Restarted BB twice. Removed Berryweather and reloaded with the same issue. Surly this is an isolated incident but it always seems to isolate me...grrr

Posted by CurlyFatAngry Saturday, Mar 06, 2010 708 days ago

This home screen/theme looks so cool. Can someone make this into a theme and post it?

Posted by rcocchiararo Sunday, Mar 07, 2010 707 days ago

WOW

ultimate lock, and 9700 5.0.0.536 = SUPER long reboot time

it stays there on the full bar for 7-10 minutes.

removing it makes the next reboot equally long, but it stays on 3/4th

then all is back to normal.
