this is probably not in my power ... after vector maps will be officially released in Locus, almost all requests should be shifted to mapsForge (creator of vector map library) issue tracker

jasné, pravda ... mělo by být opraveno

hi, try to look here if this helps you ... http://locus.asamm.cz/?p=154

hi, no it looks like problem in YOURS (http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/YOURS) service that I use for track compute. Thanks for info, you're second person who noticed me about it today. Have to check it ...

hmm this is weird. There is also possibility (in preferences) to set font size and color, so don't you have some really small font there? If not, you should try also reset all preferences in application. Maybe this should help

yes there is a cache, but is 100% control by android system (it's not exact but for examination), so I have no control over this (now).

I know about this, have to disable error logging for this

hmm, Locus do not cache images into any folder. This works in simple way now. I use just internal WebView component, that allow to display web pages and also handle all data by itself. Also a cache. So there is no place where to put these image data now. Anyway looks this is really a trouble for a lot of you . Ok, I'll look if there is any chance to insert any images into WebView cache or to redirect donwloading of this images to any folder on card. Should this be ok?

Also about the database from GSAK. It looks for me too complicated for basic user.

hmm interesting. Looks like some problem on their server.

on some tiles, it occasionally return HTTP response 503 (http://www.checkupdown.com/status/E503.html). Looks like server have some problems with handling to much request, or maybe someone is rapidly downloading data, which I hope not. Anyway if you have problems with this map, that is not caused by Locus, I suggest to use another map for download. Best servers for this offer MapQuest and ArcGIS so look at them if you do not find their maps useful

to be true, I don't want to read whole long text of this app description. What's the point? To support database of another program? And this database contain all geocaching data or just a pictures?

1 time trouble should became everyday trouble .. so no need to sorry. when this happen again, try to find way to reproduce it and immediately write me

thanks guys (berkley also for email) ... should be fixed in last testing version

more then one similar topic ... viewtopic.php?f=13&t=532&hilit=geocaching+spoilers

This version of Locus API is deprecated and will not be developed anymore

Check new version on Google Code repository together with How to

Hi,
  I have started to work on simple API that allow use some extra Locus features directly without need to create manually some byte array or similar as in previous attempts. So, count that this is just an Beta version, but what it contain:

Locus API, now moved to code.google repository - http://code.google.com/p/android-locus-map/
- if you'll be interested in publishing data here, together with some more info, tell me, otherwise I'll probably place all on code.google.com site

9.12.2011 - VERSION 9
- require Locus 1.15.0 (or at least testing version 1.14.6.6)
1) new "mExtraOnDisplay" callback on Point object. Allow to send only partial data to locus and load them only when needed
2) Intent call 'INTENT_ON_POINT_ACTION' now receive complete point also with GC data!
3) new possibility to send data to locus. Store byte[] on card and send link to Locus by EXTRA_POINTS_FILE_PATH. Sample under button 10
4) some minor improvements on Locus and API side

24.11.2011 - VERSION 8
1) actualized Geocaching attributes and also constructor needs to be used now for creating

21.10.2011 - VERSION 7
1) added support for older intent-filters directly into API
2) added support for new intent-filter - MAIN_FUNCTION that allow add your app directly into list of functions and also to right quick menu

VERSION 5/6
1) added function to import file directly into locus
2) some small refractoring and update of sample

VERSION 4
1) thanks to Arcao, for some Locus check functions (check menion.android.locus.addon.publiclib.LocusUtils file)
2) added boolean value "found" to set if cache is already ... found

VERSION 3
1) some minor changes that fits actual Locus, changed time format in geocaching data

VERSION 2
1) improved sending to Locus, not thanks to ContentProvider so almost unlimited amount of data (limit is around 4MB as I noticed, so more then enough)
2) ability to call intent with parametr "Import to database", which lunch direct import to Locus point database

VERSION 1
1) Ability to send points into Locus. It's similar to this http://forum.asamm.cz/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=34 but much simplier (callback is still supported, but it's named as 'extra')
2) You can send also complete Geocache with all information
3) Sample application contain whole skin for top bars, so you can inspire and create addon with same design as have Locus.

this API is just library you attach to your project. Look at sample and try to run it to see what is and isn't possible now. Comments and discussion are of course welcome.

sorry not needed. Good you found old topic instead of creating new. So same problem occur for you? To fix it (I thought that this is for a long time fixed), I need exact location you try to download (center coordinate) and zoom levels, to simulate same behavior as you
