I wonder what the internal themes are doing.

left "internal cycle" theme vs. right Volatile_Cycle_MTB. (with openandromaps)

@jusc:
Where can I get your Volatile_Cycle_MTB theme?
Is there additionally a hike theme available in your style?

Post by: jusc on December 07, 2012, 12:31:08
It´s still not published at the moment, because I´m waiting for kech61. He still optimizes his OpenAndroMaps.
But you can test or compare already the maps with the older Volatile_Cycleroutes Theme and off course with his original andromaps_hc theme.
I ask only, because I´m not sure what is the diffrence between internal "Rad" (cycle) and "Tourist" (hike?) theme. In my eyes they should include special informations for cyclists like cycle relations or for hikers the hiking relations. But maybe, that menion has other reasons?

Hi,
New intern styles work correctly only with new "Locus" vector maps that are available via Locus store. I'll prepare more information about it. Locus vector maps have some new tags and for this reason there is no backward compatibility with OpenAndroMaps and vice versa. Intern style cycle with new vector maps in attachment

Post by: jusc on December 07, 2012, 14:28:00
That is good news. Thank you for information. I missed "cycle maps" in the past One reason to come back to Locus store. ;)  
So one question for next updates. Is it possible to get Information about used theme and/or overlay on map screen, possible next to name of used (vector) map?

fine. Just for your info. I have now probably (again some troubles https://getsatisfaction.com/locus/topic ... y_10756467 (https://getsatisfaction.com/locus/topics/pro_2_7_4_incompatible_with_sony_xperia_s#reply_10756467)) updated Locus version to 2.8.1. In this version anyway all will works wrongly for you as now. I have anyway this issue fixed in my current test version, so you'll be able to check it once new version will be on dropbox for testing, not in new 2.8.1

Are you sure that your example was correct measured? For me it worked only if I added a waypoint, but not while a track was recorded.

Are you talking about copyright for reported bugs? ;-)
I only wanted to crossreference because Menion answered there recently.

Quote from: "jusc"Are you sure that your example was correct measured?
How can I know? A different setting on my side could be switched off altitude filter.

I definitely only recorded a track.

Hi Menion,

It seems that, after installing the new version, the default setting for the themes switches to the internal ones.
I received several Mails that after installing the openandromaps are no longer working correct.

This could be easily solved by switching back to the andromaps_hc.
However, it would be great if the choice of the user would stay as it is till one of your maps is bought.

Hello Christian,
  your post is quite surprise for me. To explain: locus stored last selected vector map theme as a string to theme file or empty if only one internal was selected. Because we added three new internal styles, I needed to change way how this information is stored. So fact, that locus when updated to 2.8.0 forget it's previous settings, wasn't because I wanted to, but because I needed to store these data in different format.

  so sorry for troubles, but surprising for me is fact, that users that downloaded maps and installed theme, aren't able to check which theme is selected and rather write email.

Hi Menion,
Thanks for clarification - no problem at all, I just made a note on my website concerning this issue.

As for the EMails: This is OK for me - I just C&P and its done  ;)

It did not happen before I upgraded to Jelly Bean ROM from Gingerbread. I used Locus Backup manager to migrate my settings only, the data stayed the same on external sd card. Is anything migrated in wrong way or this error does not have to do anything with that?

Hello Mek,
  other operations with points works correctly for you? Problem is simply in putting new point into database. So it may happen mainly in cases you have generally some problems with space on card, database corruption etc. Is some other problems happen to you? And also is this happening only when you add new point directly in category? Because this should then happen also with every operation with points ... weird
Title: Re: [APP] - version 2.8.X
Post by: Mek on December 30, 2012, 22:45:28
Well, most of the time it works now but yesterday it didn't. I didn't test other operations at that time (like deleting points etc)... so it must have been some random stuff. Or perhaps a hidden bug in that custom ROM, who knows... So no bug in Locus, to be more precise. That's what I needed to know :)
Title: Re: [APP] - version 2.8.X
Post by: Menion on January 01, 2013, 11:10:08
hmm "no bug" ... it's a question. I think that even if there is problem with SD card, or whatever, good app should withstand this only with some notification about problem etc. Not with these crash errors that Locus sometimes have. Anyway let me know if there will be still this problem. Don't have idea what to do with it now except testing your SD card or restoring previous data, but maybe we find something :)

With 4.0.4 you have Locus (with apps2sd) at /sdcard/external_sd/Locus. With 4.1.2 it is/storage/extSdCard/Locus. Maybe the problem is here?

Yes, I noticed the change of paths as well. But if that was the problem, it wouldn't work at all, right? But it works correctly for more than a week so... looks like the problem fixed itself? :D

edit:
Oh, well, just now it happened again. After inserting a new point into a category - crash. But then, I saw the point was inserted properly (it was not checked to show on map intially) and everything was working okay. So I checked it (the other points were already checked), gone from points screen back to map and then exited Locus. After starting Locus again, all points from that category were unchecked (points from other categories were left intact).

edit 2:
Now I was adding two points using coordinates - the same steps for both. First point was inserted OK, second crashed. Then I renamed the point and it was renamed OK, however, checkboxes of other points got lost. I got up (to list of categories), where I saw 1/49 - that was the number of "checked" points under my category. I entered the category again, chose Select all which checked the checkboxes of all points. Then I got up to list of categories again and there I saw 1/49 - expected 49/49. After opening the category, only the one (freshly added) point was checked.

I can't start any version of locus since 2.8.1. Any later version brings this error. I tried reinstalling locus pro, but this didnt solved problem.

Im using cyanogen mod 7.2 stable.

Hello,
  I'm sorry that this happen to you. It's a rare issue with database system that should never happen. But it happen usually because of Task killer applications or errors with communication of SD card. I wrote about it here http://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php/manual ... d_database (http://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php/manual:how_to:corrupted_database). Solutions are at bottom, but common solution is restoring previous backup. If you'll have more problems with this, write me and I'll try to improve description on dokuwiki
