not really, I think 3.5.1.1 had some major bugs, maybe screwed up their servers, I don't remember, but the last 2 versions are as good as it gets so far.
I would suggest posting in the navizon forum. the more users that report issues there, the more attention winmo versions will get.

Shaggy is on point, my bad...

I have made a partial break though of sorts. I know how to freeze Navizon everytime. I just have to run the program in an area of high numbers of APs like an apartment complex. The program locks up. Also I discovered this same error is what causes the blank screen where no buttons work. Well when navizon freezes it pretty much shuts down my phone. Task manager really doesn't even close it. So since the program is frozen it doesn't run my power setting and the screen shuts off like the phone isn't in use. I then can't turn it back on since Navizon is still frozen. So a soft reset is my only option. Can anyone replicate this theory?

thi ssofware sucked on all the phones ive run it on... i could never get it to be stable at all made me mad.. i was getting so many points then it wouldnt run at all the week i went on a huge trip.... it never ran right after the first few days

Has anyone tried or been able to replicate my problem?

[shaggylive]

yes, that's what happens when it freazes. the points it collected be for the freeze should still be in the database and should upload the next sync. in fact since i've been using cameraware buddy I just kill navizon, then sync every time when I start it.

has anyone tried turning off the navizon pwr mgmt? I was always afraid the wifi would kick off, but now with the buddy i'm not concerned. I will be trying it this way and report back. otherwise I just have wm pwr mgmt set to not turn off when plugged in.

No I was saying can anyone go to a heavy area of AP and get Navizon to freeze instantly. And by freeze i mean the location updated time freezes and you cant stop Navizon. I think Navizon loses its mind when there are to many AP to log at once. Let use know how the power management goes.

I've never had a problem with Navizon freezing because of too many Aps. Usually if I come upon an apartment complex I'll drive into the middle of it and stop for a few minutes. Never had an issue when I did that.

[drewcam888]

Hmm well I don't understand then. Because it did it today when I was testing at to separate areas of high numbers of APs. Popdog what version do you run currently?

[popdog54]

I'm running 3.5.1.3 with dcd's 3.3.4.
