[Announce] Waze for N900/N9/N950 - Page 27 - maemo.org

gill_za | # 261 | 2012-06-12, 21:49 | Report

Am I the only one who is getting "Failed to communicate with the routing server" error on n900 past couple of days? I tried clean install, removed all the waze folders and purged the configs... nothing...

I know this is a little OT (im really really sorry) but have any of you been able to build waze for android ? I believe the last open official version was 2.4.0.23 or 26

Some of the needed files seem to be in older versions of the source.

Thanks for any and all thoughts.

The ability to set location by UI element or config file, for use without attached GPS.

I have had Waze crash at least three times approaching the same intersection on my way home. It has happened whether I am using navigation or not, but does not happen every time . Is this a known problem or should I try to capture the terminal output?

sorry for the long delay in response but i was and still am busy with packing my home and moving to a new town. anyway:
1) the ability to disable auto set for day and night already exist in map settings if i remember correctly
2) you can also change the schema files yourself, its quite easy. set the colors in /opt/waze/data/skins/default/night/schema and copy the new file as MyDocs/.waze/skins/default/night/schema . i promise to add it

3) please set the log level to 1 (search this thread for instructions) make it crash again and upload the log to the issue tracker in the waze-qt project at google code. i will check it out

sorry to disappoint you, but the official waze was never fully opensourced (and they violated GPL license doing so). a lot of bugs that are fixed in the android version are not reflected in the released code. for that reason i had to bust my head many months and rewrite logic that they never released. Unlike the official waze, this port is fully open sourced and fill the gap that waze left. i have never tried compiling it to android as i never needed to so atleast for me the answer is: sorry, i havnt tried

even though i despise microsoft products, i find thier metro style ideal for the grid mode (in other words, ideal for ppl with limited hand movement) - see attached image

The compression was not on. I did enable and disable it with restarts with no improvement.

It pulls traffic info and updates, warnings about cameras and such, shows my position but no navigation.

from Yappari thread i found a way to fix definitely the segfault issue, now i can also choose "go to contacts" and navigate without crash!

They should export the contacts, go to Contacts -> Settings -> Delete all contacts from device, and re-import them, or maybe, import them one by one until you find the offender contact.
