LiteTrack - ver 0.7 - new features

Important: Uninstall previous versions and DELETE any map previously downloaded with Litetrack, they're not compatible with v0.7.
Saved tracks and POIs are still compatible.

what's new in 0.7 version:

- No more tiles' limit in map's download.
- Map is saved as a single file, to save space in your SD
- User's location added to Track viewer, to walkback even without map
- New scrolling system
- Bugs fixed, all regional settings (should be) supported
- Mobile Cells localization and caching


About Cells localization: even without GPS you will have an idea about your location. This feature can be enabled or disabled from settings. How it works: any new phone cell encountered is added to the app database; if online, also cell's location is obtained and added to database. (*)Cells' locations can even be added later (menu -> tools -> Update). Once the cells are registered with their locations can be used offline also.

* This means you'll be free to go around and around staying offline, LiteTrack still collects info about phone cells encountered (but don't forget to enable it from settings). Once at home, turn online and update the database, all the cells previously collected are now ready to be displayed on the map and used offline. In other words, you will have your personal database of mobile cells!

Hope you enjoy all the new stuff!

If you like this app please consider to eur, or usd, the amount you prefer. Thank you!

To Romeo Fox

Consider that
1) max size is 1000 tiles per map, in respect of OpenStreetMap rules.
2) at first launch of LiteTrack you have a global map, not detailed at all.

Well, to get detailed maps of towns and small areas follow these steps:
1) take an area from default map (e.g. your country or state) and download.
2) open the map just downloaded, select the area you're interested and download again. You will have more zoom options now.

Hope this help.

To HD2 users

I'm getting opposite feedbacks, there are hd2 users saying it works, and other saying it doesn't. I'll try to find the point and solve any issue.

Hello xdaid,

Anyway, i will follow your news as this soft is exactly what i'm looking for since longtime

Congrats for job done so far.

Renaud, the issue you encountered, almost sure, is related to the mouse pointer on capacitive screen. That's the reason you can't get the right coords when you select the area to download.

It would be helpful for me if you:

1) type manually into wizard's boxes the values
1 (W), 2 (E), 2 (N), 1 (S)
choose first zoom level available and let me know if download starts.
It should start.

2) draw a rectangle around France an let me know what values you read into
the wizard's boxes

Since i tested my app on resistive-screen devices only (ouch!) these info will help me to fix the issue.

regards

To Romeo Fox and other users who get "out of range" message

i found the issue, it looks really WEIRD

the problem is the conversion of text boxes' values into numeric floating values, weird cause the code appear to be right, and mostly cause my device, other devices i tested and wm 6.5 emulator work flawless.

I'll be fix it really soon, in the meanwhile try this:
select an area (France ), tap OK and then simply replace the characters '.' into the boxes (top, left, right, bottom) with the character ','

Let me know, but i'm pretty sure this works.

ver 0.2 - fixed!

I made some changes which should have solved issues encountered on hd2 and a couple of other devices:
- GPS handler fixed
- Map selection tool now working propely

Also app was succesfully tested on VGA square screen

Hope you enjoy!
waiting for some feedbacks, thanks
