Yahoo! Weather

Search for a city (ie.: New York). Once you are on the city page (ie.: http://weather.yahoo.com/forecast/USNY0176.html), take note of the location code (ie.: USNY0176). This is what you need to put in QL.

I tried that. it does not work. the accelodex is not listed and i have the app open.

I will try to look into this issue. You may also want to try to contact CheetahAce (QL Developer) by sending him an email.

I added a video file, and through the sub menu it doesnt launch. Is that a known issue?

Does it launch from the media manager? (Media > > Explore)

The reason I'm asking is that it might be an association issue versus a QL issue.

Visit Mobihand, login with your Crackberry Store Information. Click on change next to your PIN, input your current PIN (even if it's the same, in caps) and click Confirm. This will force Mobihand to generate a new code for QuickLaunch, regardless of if it is the same PIN or not.

No, it should be the same as your Crackberry App Store account. Try login then on http://software.crackberry.com/ and changing your PIN there.

Contact the store support. They might be able to answer faster then the developer (which is currently overwhelmed with requests).

One more issue to report. QL 2.0 does not honor the Orientation Lock. Previous version did. So I know that it will work.

Here is the scenario. Normally I keep the orientation locked to portrait on the home screen. When rotating the phone it stays in portrait as expected.

While the phone is physically rotated (the image on the homescreen is still in portrait) and I launch QL it appears, on the right side in my case, but it in a proper vertical mode.

What I expected, and what it used to do, is appear on the right side of the screen as though the phone was physically in a portrait orientation.

That's an Orientation Lock issue, not a QuickLaunch issue. Contact Orientation Lock's developer.

Wrong. Did you read where I said that the previuos version of QL worked correctly.

So considering the only thing that has changed is QL to V2 then it must be a QL issue.

How about you let Cheetah answer since he is the developer.

You don't need to do that - you can simply enter your zipcode (as noted in the QL2 Options Instructions - works for me and is easier too

I have just downloaded QL 2.0 from App World. If I am reading the posts correctly, you have to wait 2 weeks for RIM to approve this new application before it will work properly?? I have it on my phone and when I click on it to run the app, it just flickers! Anyone have a solution for this?
Thanks!

tried it. It works though media player explorer. I tried different videos and they all played fine. With QL it wont load any of my videos though. the images load fine, it just doesn't launch any videos. I've tried a few too
