Last post by ThomasD. - Today at 16:49:50I went thousands of kilometers in eastern Europe with RAM-Mounts. Cradle is the RAM Mount Quick-Grip XL. Because of the 2-ball construction and the inner arm, the mount kills some of the vibrations.
For my Doogee V20 Android rugged phone with QI-charging I stripped a Car Phone QI Charging Pad. However, you can buy a ready to go holder, if you don´t want to DIY.
Fast QI-charging delivers enough power for navigation.

Troubles & Questions / Fieldnotes and personal notes ...
Last post by quake_88 - Today at 16:00:55Hello everyone.
I've recently switched to a new Xiaomi phone and am using Locus Maps Classic.
I mainly use Locus for geocaching and am now experiencing the following problems:
When I try to upload field notes, the process aborts and I get error code 400.
There's also a problem uploading personal notes, as I get an error message there as well.
I'm using the latest version of Locus, 3.70.18, and Field Notes version 1.4.6.2.

Last post by quake_88 - Today at 12:12:42Hallo zusammen.

Wenn ich die fieldnotes hochladen will bricht er den Vorgang ab und folgender Fehler Code 400 zeigt sich.
Des Weiteren gibt es auch ein Problem beim hochladen der persönlichen Notizen. Da auch hier ein Fehler erscheint.
Ich verwende locus die aktuellste Version von locus 3.70.18 und fieldnotes 1.4.6.2
Ich wäre sehr dankbar, wenn mir hier jemand weiter helfen könnte.

Hardware / What device do you use for Loc...
Last post by BMWGS_girl_rider - Today at 11:02:37Hi bikers,
I'm currently choosing a device for longer trips (Balkan, Eastern Europe, gravel and asphalt). So far, I've been using a classic TomTom navigation or my phone. I'm afraid to use my phone because I don't want to damage my iPhone, and I know vibrations aren't good for it. TomTom has very limited maps, especially in the East, where the map often loses detail or coverage.
I've used Locus map before and it suited me very well, so I'm looking for a device that works well with these maps. I really like the offline map functionality. I don't want to mirror my phone, I don't want to charge two devices and deal with cables everywhere. I'd prefer something that can be directly connected to the motorcycle. I've also considered Garmin, but I don't want limited navigation again. So I prefer using Android.
My ideal setup:
-something readable in direct sunlight
-powered directly from the motorcycle
-resistant to vibrations
-capable of running navigation and apps long-term without issues
I've been looking at Carpe Iter, they have a new device that looks like exactly what I'm looking for. Does anyone have experience with them? Does anyone use their products? How does it work, and how is their support and warranty service? I really like it..So far, it seems like the best option I've seen. But I'm still gathering experiences.
What has worked well for you long-term in adventure travelling?
Many thanks to all!

Locus Map / Re: Re: [APP] - version 4.32.+...
Last post by Tapio - Today at 08:08:57Track display of geotagged photos. great feature, did I say that already? 😁 👍
Maybe it's a good idea to include it as a display option for tracks and folders (like the track coloring, thickness etc.)
Reason: I also store tracks of other people. Locus ofc shows my photos also there.

Troubles & Questions / refresh custom online map list
Last post by jpicheral - Yesterday at 22:44:02It seems that the map list is not updated when I modify the XML definition files for the custom online maps. I made several attempts, including with the example file from the help section.

Last post by Graf Geo - Yesterday at 20:39:51Gar nicht. Da Google rumzickt, hat das Locus Team Google Drive für Auto-Backups rausgenommen. Nimm One Drive oder Dropbox, die werden weiterhin angeboten und funktionieren.
Oder synchronisiere deinen lokalen Backup-Ordner mit einer Drittanbieter-App wie z. B. FolderSync oder AutoSync. Da kannst du auch WebDAV nutzen.

Nicht jeder möchte lokale Backups, die viel Speicher belegen.

Locus Map / Re: Re: [APP] - version 4.32.+...
Last post by Tapio - Yesterday at 14:43:41Menion, I noticed a side-effect regarding the track-display of geotagged photos.
If I made manual extensions to tracks in the past, e. g. because a part was missing, geotagged photos do not show up.
Either it does not like the internal additional track segment or it gets confused because the track has 1970-01-01... timestamps in trackpoints. So what I did to resolve this was: gpx export, merge track segments, replace 1970 dates with surrounding ones, then gpx import.
