Please post your /home/user/.cloudgps/cloudgps.ini here and then delete the file a try running CloudGPS again.

If that does not help please try deleting /home/user/MyDocs/.maps directory with its contents (this is offline map cache).

Hum.... i can't understand why someone should say to all where he is in every second of the day....

When i want to meet someone i call him or her(usually is better :D )... to me, it seems enough, BUT sure, it's only my opinion. ;)

This was to be kept secret, but it already is public news. Sorry Nokia, even MWKN wrote about it.

I have only one thing to say about the prize: HURRAY! :)

Great work, Damian :) I hope I can help you with some bug reporing :)

version 0.6.5
1) search is not working correct. the wrong position will be shown something about 50km in the south east of each query. also switched the search service by pressing s. app crashes when trying to switch search service via preferences.

Confirming. Is the bugtracker at garage.maemo.org the official one?

stdout when searching "Київ":

Quote:

Search URL: http://geocoding.cloudmade.com/e4b17..._location=true
Segmentation fault

The segfault happened only when I closed it, it's some different bug.
config:

Quote:

$ cat /home/user/.cloudgps/config.ini

[CurrentView]

tilex=296
tiley=169
x=9.9999103546142578

[Options]
tileProvider=OpenStreetMap
geocodingProvider=CloudMade
routingProvider=Google
loadLastRoute=0

And the location returned is really greatly displaced (screenshot attached). But I didn't check if it's cloudmade's error.
Some minor enhancement suggestions:
a) cyrillic symbols in the search input are being displayed as squares;
b) I didn't realize that it was search button until I switched to portrait. IMHO, the icon is misleading.
c) bug tracker link in the 'About' screen would be great :)

UPDATE:
The location shown is http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=50.0000&lon=30.0000&zoom=10
So there is some rounding somewhere.

Re: [WIP] CloudGPS 0.4.8 - smoothest maps for N900

great app. congratulations!!!

for the moment I am having two problems with the new version.
1. the search text box writes only vertically and not horizontally. (the text box is horizontal but the text goes vertical)
2. the search box shows squares when I try to type Greek letters.

p900	2012-02-18 11:35

Re: [WIP] CloudGPS 0.4.8 - smoothest maps for N900

another problem I have found. the app sometimes does not use either GPS or network to get the position. when this happens, it does nothing and I get "position unknown"
and yes the GPS and Network are enabled through the phone's settings

Temporary instant fix for positioning:

Code:

$ sudo sed 's/Exec=.*/Exec=env LD_LIBRARY_PATH=\/opt\/qtm11\/lib \/opt\/cloudgps\/cloudgps/' /usr/share/applications/hildon/cloudgps.desktop -i

UPDATE: added a patch for vcs.maemo.org/svn/cloudgps

Could you share your Cyrillic keyboard setup? Is it Russian?

In some early versions I cared to close the app cleanly. This unfortunately lead to issues regarding some lenghty operation. When there was an unfinished download the app would wait for it to finish before closing. Users reported that the GPS was still on after closing the app when in fact the app was still trying to finish what it started.

Recent versions gracefully save the state and then force the shutdown without caring for background running threads. You can safely ignore that segfault for now.

It is probably because the bundled Nokia Pure font does not support Cyrillic characters. Could you try to change the font in /opt/cloudgps/cloudgps.ini (last line IIRC) and report back if the characters are shown correctly?

Landscape search is broken in 0.6. Will be fixed in 0.7.

Here is this location (crosshair center) using CloudGPS and the config you provided. After pressing C key the coordinates are shown on screen:

And here is the same coordinates (green arrow) using Google Maps:

http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/8678/74964440.png

The maps differ but it seems to me that there is no significant displacement.

Could you try to change the font in /opt/cloudgps/cloudgps.ini to something else that supports Greek letters and report back if it renders correctly?

Would you care sharing your Greek keyboard layout so it could be included in next version?

The problem is not in the difference between providers, it's some rounding going on. Cloudmade returned 50.44998, 30.5235 but CloudGPS showed 50.0000, 40.0000. The same for requesting route, but it looks like it's the same problem.

I've skimmed through code at garage but nothing looks like rounding or integer. Is it the code for 0.6.5?

See the end of the first post in this thread. Also beside ModRana you can try Mappero or Marble.

It exits when going to search provider options. (Segmentation fault).

Any plan to support sql based tile storage as in (or created by) modRana?

Dear guy,

need some input
1)not managed to download the map using Modrana in order to enable utilized it in offline mode http://tah.openstreetmap.org/Tiles/tile/%d/%d/%d.png

2)did the cloudgps support rerouting if accessing wrong path from the exact route?

3)offline search?

Your cooperation is highly appreciated and thanks a bunch to the sofware developer for such a good app and willing to share it with other.

as openstreetmap's osmarender (t@h) is dismissed now, i think u can remove it from the app.

( HTTP status 404 for url: 'http://tah.openstreetmap.org/Tiles....." )

I think that the best solution would be to use the "_OLD_" version of MOBAC....(the one before the provider's cut)

Re: [WIP] CloudGPS 0.4.8 - smoothest maps for N900

Hi, new to this. Looking for a maemo-mapper equivalent for the N9.

Just installed CloudGPS 0.6.4 from "Store" on the N9 pr1.2, but only get a white screen (edit: ) with OSM. Have google map tiles working now. I'm in Australia.
After deleting config and restarting:

Code:

[CurrentView]

zoom=16

tilex=53860

tiley=38897

x=0

y=0



[Options]

tileProvider=OpenStreetMap

geocodingProvider=CloudMade

routingProvider=CloudMade

loadLastRoute=0

OSM and cycle maps fail to load. Lots of errors like:

Code:

D/l error 7: Couldn't connect to server for URL: 'http://c.andy.sandbox.cloudmade.com/tiles/cycle/16/53860/38898.png'

D/l error 7: Couldn't connect to server for URL: 'http://tile.openstreetmap.org/16/53861/38901.png'

The same URLs load OK using wget.
Plenty of Dbus errors too.

Code:

process 7269: arguments to dbus_move_error() were incorrect, assertion "(dest) == NULL || !dbus_error_is_set ((dest))" failed in file ../../dbus/dbus-errors.c line 280.

This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library.

Google maps do load though. In "change maps" the icons for the 3 OSM maps do not load, and buttons often do not respond (dbus errors?).
CPU is running around 50% idle.

Help!?

Sometimes it tries to connect using IPv6 and fails. I have no idea why this happens but you could workaround by adding the following line:

Code:

forceIPv4=1

to [Network] section in /opt/cloudgps/cloudgps.ini (needs to be done as root). I think it should help if wget does work. Please not that tiles@home are apparently no longer alive.

If this does not help then you could try adding

Code:

curlVerbose=1

to the same file/section and then paste the output from stderr here.

Thanks. that fixed the main OSM map. Still have:
- "2 batteries found" stderr, and "battery: -1%" on screen.
- lots of dbus errors, e.g. when I click a button and click ignored.
- tries to fetch from c.andy.sandbox.cloudmade.com and tah.openstreetmap.org which are down, but no useful error message for user.
- change map: map icons sometimes loading very slowly.

Having played with it, it does not appear to do what I needed. Will need to keep Android and N900 around for mapping, by the looks of it.

Dear dwaradzyn,

Thanks for the input.
Susgestion hope you can add the offline rerouting since it very usefull and make the navigation more reliable and also with offline poi. It will be best if clould gps can utilized the Garmin map and poi since its free and also always updated and make the Clould gps be more usefull and reliable navigation system.

Thanks

Re: [WIP] CloudGPS 0.4.8 - smoothest maps for N900

Is there any way to makes the blue line of the route visible during all the navigation time ? I'm on the 0.5.5 and that line just disaper when i'm moving. Since i can't read the litle font on the turn by turn box when i'm driving, i missed so much that blue line :o(
Many thanks to the author and sorry about my bad english.

Você acha openstreetmap gratuito para o mundo todo mas não são tão legais quanto o Google maps. Com o CloudGPS prefiro deixar baixando o googlemaps em tempo real pois uso um plano daqueles de 50 centavos/dia da TIM.
