== TIPS / TROUBLESHOOT ==

• If the "Install" step fails; go to Android settings > Security and make sure "Unknown sources" is enabled.
• The apps must obviously be installed in your device already to launch them. The skin won't install it.
• To change temperature unit between Celsius and Fahrenheit -> Launch UCCW app itself. Tap Menu, tap settings. 3rd option from top is "Celsius". If it is selected, temperature will display in Celsius. If unselected, Fahrenheit.
• If weather info is not displayed/updated, Launch UCCW app itself. Tap Menu, tap settings, tap location. Make sure "Auto location" is checked. If it is already selected, unselect and select again.
• Send me a mail if you have ANY issues.
