hmm,
  I wrote quickly short manual how to run OpenWIG on desktop computer here.

  hope this helps ...

[Why test on java OpenWIG core?]

Why test on java OpenWIG core?
Core of WhereYouGo is based on work of Matejcik. Person who created OpenWIG project. Why test? Answer is simple. If you have any troubles with WhereYouGo, firstly test this on OpenWIG! If All works fine, problem is with WhereYouGo, so write me and I'll fix this. If OpenWIG have same issue as WhereYouGo, you have to post your issue on OpenWIG google code page here!

How to test your cartridge on OpenWIG core?

• download Java WTK 2.5.2 library from here.
• download newest OpenWIG.jar and OpenWIG.jad files from here.
• install Sun WTK 2.5.2. Then go to install folder bin (on my computer - c:Program FilesJavawtk_2.5.2bin) and run ktoolbar.exe.
• click File and Create project from Jad/Jar and choose your downloaded OpenWIG files.
• click run on top panel and voala ..
• directory which serve as card in emulator is on my computer c:Usersmenionj2mewtk2.5.2appdbDefaultColorPhonefilesystemroot1

hope this simple tutorial helps you!

Hi technetium,
  I'm currently fully focused on Locus, so may you do some more testing? WhereYouGo core is based on OpenWIG, so when something do not work in OpenWIG, it'll not work in WhereYouGo too!! otherwise, if something work in OpenWIG and not in WhereYouGo, I'm sure that this is my mistake and should be solved!

  so please test your cartridge also in OpenWIG (phone with Java ME or emulator). If you have same problems in OpenWIG, write this issue on OpenWIG code page here or let me know if it's problem only in WhereYouGo and I'll fix this! Thanks

[6.1.2011 - Locus 0.9.0]

Hi to all,
  hope you've got nice start of new year. Me ... yes

so ... some news are coming. It'll take same time since new version will be on market. I really want to test some features. If you want, you should help with developing by testing new versions of Locus from this topic!


6.1.2011 - Locus 0.9.0

• uff ... enough waiting. New version is on Market and I hope that all will work well or at least, no angry one star comments, will not appear on market!
• small info: myTracks support is currently removed. I did great work on this today but I need to new version of MyTracks release on market. Until that, I cannot release my version with this support

5.1.2011 - Locus 0.9.0.4

• adding paths to MyMaps (filled or just lines)
• new dialog for adding point to MyMaps
• ability to export MyMaps data to Locus database
• many others fixs ... ufff

4.1.2011 - Locus 0.9.0.3

• improved ability to add points. Now use correct icons.
• ability to DELETE points.
• ability to add Points from database to MyMaps! (Start editing any map and then click on item from database)
• fixed many bugs with showing maps
• added ability to cache calling to show MyMaps from SMS, email, ... (for example previously sended by Locus 'any MyMaps -> Share')

... and c'mon guys, any feedback is needed

3.1.2011 - Locus 0.9.0.2

• impoved MyMaps support!!!
• fixed problems on A2.1 and lower
• ability to create NEW maps in application
• ability to ADD POINTS into MyMaps from application
• some fixs and improvements

1.1.2011 - Locus 0.9.0.1

• basic support for MyMaps (viewing)!!!
• basic integration of MyTracks
• ability to import and show tracks on map
• offline mod for online maps (in settings)
• changed style of bottom menus (two lines now)

about MyTracks integration - version that support this integration is not currently on market, so you have to use attached, UNSIGNED MyTracks (you need to remove old MyTracks and install this), otherwise, Stop recording function will not work. Also track is not visible on map, even in MyTracks. It's just for start and stop recording. System of MyTracks is still in developing, so I'm waiting with integration to final version!

what I want before release?

• tune MyMaps integration, with ability to share maps and delete them
• wait a while for MyTracks release and improve MyTracks integration (viewing recorded tracks on map, ability to show another recorded tracks on map, ...)

done, since version 0.9.0

Hi eXXon,
  as I see, this maps have very coplicated url syntax and isn't allowed to use them simple as google maps or osm maps ...
  are they really so good that much work that is needed to add them to Locus worth it? If yes, I can try to add them but I hope that no

Hi,
  I'm glad you like it

  about downloading maps ... what is problem? Exist two versions of SQLite download, precisely described here. If it is not perfectly understandable, let me know. I'm not sure about my english but I hope that you will understand differences between both SQLite methods ...

Hi,
  whole topic in english so ...

  I'm currently testing using of MyTracks to record tracks. It seems for me best solution. Release time depend a little on release time of new MyTracks version which will bring support for this external usage. If will be problems with using MyTracks, I'll do own implementation, so track recording will be surely!

hi,
 sorry to all, my mistake. On 2.2 desire all works fine ... hope that I'll find time and fix this issue today ...

hmm,
  I'm not sure from which sources, android system takes it's location. For taking position from Cell-ID, I think you don't need to have internet data connection. It's just basic trigonometry from power of phone signal. There is question about position of sending towers...

Position taken from wi-fi signal, pretend just connection to wi-fi network, but it do not mean that internet connection is also available. So, I'm not perfectly sure how whole this basic network location think work, but it will be weird, when internet connection have to be available!

spawny,
 I thing that when you don't want to use your gps and want only network/wi-fi/cell-ID ... you the disable gps in system. When you do this, you'll see that Locus use your network location. You can also see this when you enable gps in locus, green circle will be displayed almost immediately. Green circle is position from network. When you receive position from GPS, green change to blue!

  enough?

Hi,
  it's weird, because every map is testing if it was changed during last run and if was, only then new initialization is starting. It do not depend on application updates! Hmm, so I'll have to look on it closer, but this have not to do!

  I understand that 2GB of maps takes too long to initialize, so please look if new update do same thing. If so, we'll have to do something with it

Hi Puma,
  firstly I moved your topic to Locus -> Question forum from Smartmaps forum.

  then, to remove adds you just look into settings, there is possibility to disable by checkbox button.

  and about downloaded maps - it depend on method you used for download. Here are described method of download. If you choose first one, there will be no new map in custom maps tab. This method share tiles with online maps, so you just select Google earth from online maps, and your downloaded tiles will be used!

Hi Seam,
  it's not for the first time I see that users have problems with uderstanding of three bottom buttons. First button is for map centering, as described here. It center map after 5 seconds. So if you need to move to another location, just disable first bottom button (centering). Hope this helps!

[online režim (ano/ne)]

ahoj,
  tohle určitě udělat chci. Taky jsem nad tím už přemýšlel ale nevím kam dát nějaké zaškrtávátko online/offline režim ...

 nějaké nápady? Asi to není něco co by člověk měnil 10x denně že? takže možná to dát až do nastavení, nějaký online režim (ano/ne), s popisem: při zvolených online mapách stahovat chybějící dlaždice. Defaultně zapnuto ... hmm to by možná šlo
