Re: Wayfinder map app update (2.2.8.604) - thoughts
 

I just downloaded and started playing around with Wayfinder today on my N800, and have a problem when I go to find an address. If I click in the street field, the online keyboard that comes up doesn't have numbers on it (the number pad area has symbols instead) and I can't figure out how to input numbers. The fields for city and number both work fine. Anyone else seen this or have a suggestion for a fix?

I noticed that too. I think the reason is because it puts the on-screen-keyboard in uppercase mode, which also replaces the numbers with symbols (just like when you press shift). To enter numbers just press the shift button, which will put it back in lowercase, and enable the numbers again. (It's quite annoying, especially if you live in a city where the streetnames are numbers.)

Anybody notice behavior like this?

- Tap find something
- Tap favorite.
- Tap the push pin, select Navigate to
- Rather than computing a route it goes back to the find favorites/address/town/etc screen.
- Re-tap favorite and maybe after two or three tries it goes to compute the route.

This might happen most often when GPS location hasn't established. Not sure about that.

I have 2.2.8.604 on an N810 with diablo.

Had an email from wayfinder saying that there had been a server problem, but that traffic updates are now back online again. Not tested yet though.

Yes, its very annoying. Only happens when GPS is starting up and hasn't yet fully initialised I think.

The navicore application is in fact capable of avoiding ferries as well as congestion routes.
However the wayfinder UI does not provide buttons for this.
It is possible to change settings manually in /home/user/.navicore/settings.txt
0=avoid
1=allow
2=ask
Nevertheless, in my case the programm avoided the use of a ferry even set to "shortest way".
The sollution was to choose the ferryhouse as the first waypoint, resulting in a much shorter route.
Using "bicycle" mode, the app used the ferry connection right from the start.

Hopefully this information is of interrest at least to someone ;-)

That setting is editable from the UI; in Menu -> Settings.
