Hmm. Have you tried first installing the dependencies before installing the new version? The cert is not required by the way. Can you also try installing via Windows Device Portal website (enable in Developer Settings), http://127.0.0.1/ if you do it on your phone.

doing it via Device Portal did the trick, thanks...
for some reasons seems I'm not able anymore to install from total commander or file manager :S (not only your app)

I like the app a lot and it's better than the Android version in many ways, but what is the proper way to shut it down? I think it's running in the background even when I close it. My battery is draining very quickly even when I close the app.

Thanks!

One way to stop it from running in the background is to turn off recording by pressing the Record button. Or you can press & hold the back button and swipe the app away from there.

And thanks for your comment! :)

So is it safe to buy any Win 10 Mobile phone for cellmapper mapping?
Whats about Dual SIM Variants, like Lumia 640/650?

Yes it's safe, you should buy a x50 Lumia for best experience but any Windows 10 Mobile phone will work. Dual SIM works, but as I don't have a Dual Sim phone myself there might be some bugs when using 2 SIMs.

App installing is easy, follow instructions. What you mean "for block bands"?

So you mean locking to a specific frequency band? On Lumia x50 devices you can open Edge and type the url mmo-ftdapp://test and use the Band Locking. Other Lumias may or may not have the diagnosis dial code enabled. You can try by entering ##3282# in the phone dialer.

this ;) but lumia 550 is x50 no? ;) in setting i can set a second to maps example 1 sec ?


thanks

Hi, on 950 dual sim, installed via Windows Device Portal website, ( tried to install appx via file explorer but istantly closes when I push the confirmation button).
- There isn't notification or log file to say if the data have been correctly uploaded :s
- The different colors of the 4 buttons aren't very clear, red and green are for example
- How many time between data uploaded and data available on the map ?

Thx a lot for this app on Windows phone!

I have not tried Lumia 550 but should work fine. CellMapper always uses 1 second data saving interval for now.

Have been using this app off and on with my 950 XL dual sim and IDOL 4s. Thanks.

Glad you found it useful! :)

The File Explorer installer just works that way, it closes and does not say if it succeeded or not. But good that you got it installed, now app updates should install fine via file explorer.
Answers to your questions:
- The upload button has a tiny progress bar in the bottom part of it, when the button is fully blue the upload has completed successfully. The bar is only visible if upload is turned on and there is something to upload.
- Colors are: grey = off, blue = on.
- Generation is randomized, so it could take from minutes to days. Usually around a day is to be expected. This is due to the constant server load. If you want to help with the server operating costs, you can do so here: https://www.cellmapper.net/donate (Don't donate to me from my XDA profile as I'm not the one running the servers, unless you really wanted to donate to me)

    Hello everyone, I'm back with an app (beta) for you!

    CellMapper displays advanced GSM/CDMA/UMTS/LTE/LTE-A cellular network information and can also record this data to allow you to contribute to our crowd-sourced coverage maps.
    Link to website: https://cellmapper.net

    The Windows 10 Mobile version supports Live Upload, CSV upload is not possible.

    Installation:
    1. Download the zip from the download link
    2. On your phone open and install the .cer certificate file
    3. On your phone open and install the appx file

    Usage:
    • Install using the above guide or use Device Portal to deploy
    • Open the app, turn Record on (blue)
    • Run around the town with GPS on and CellMapper running
    • Turn upload on (blue), optionally log in (account), and wait for the datapoints to be uploaded.

    CellMapper BETA 1.1.13.0 on 950XL/14965.

    Crashes after splash screen if High Contrast theme is ON.

    There is a ticket open for the high-contrast issue.

    The app refuses to install even after installing the certificate

    Did you enable Developer Mode on the device? If you do not, it will simply not install without any error messages.
