Here's a vote for moving it and re-titleing.

I've tried running on the TP and the only thing not working is the cell gathering.

Wifi works great and GPS seems to be, although I use my stand alone unit more, so I've not paid a lot of attention to Navizon's GPS feature.

ok, it's a little late in the game for this,

I can't believe I didn't try earlier.

Code:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Navizon]
"AutoStart"=dword:00000001

will "start" navizon when opened, but not @ boot.

Thanks for the info shaggy. But it doesn't work for me. I still have to push start after the program starts. And also I got a windows error when I closed the program.

i am not getting cells in this latest version.

I still get cells so I don't know on that one. Make sure you post on the Navizon forum your problems. That way they see them.

From the Navizon announcement...

Quote:

We released a new version:
Cab file:
http://www.navizon.com /downloads/NavizonCab_3 _5_2_0.CAB
Setup file:
http://www.navizon.com /downloads/NavizonSetup _3_5_2_0.msi

Changes include:
- automatic detection of GPS for devices with built-in GPS
- autostart added, or more exactly start/stop modes removed. Navizon doesn't need to be started
- few changes and enhancements to the location engine

Feedback is more than welcome. Once this version is confirmed stable, it will be moved to the main download section.

let's get a little feedback here before I update the op...

Issues.
1. I still get random freezes of the program. So the location updated time just freezes. Navizon is in local database mode and running with a gps, wifi, cell all green. When the freeze happens gps light is still blinking. So with the new version I went to menu then exit after the freeze. The menu stayed popped up and no other buttons would work. No windows wheel of death like in previous versions. The program completely freezes and I have to soft reset the phone to get anything to happen. (I think a problem might be that it seems to happen in areas of high numbers of APs.) These freezes have happened to me on 3.5.1.2 and 3.5.1.3 also.
2. When in local database mode the program tries to sync on startup which I don't want. There is no longer an option to control any sync times. I pick local database mode because I don't have a data package and don't want to sync. I sync only when connected via activesync.
3. Also the tracker status now shows a date and time. I am not using the trail feature so I didn't think this was supposed to update. The status never showed anything in my previous version.

I also get an error when i close the application sometimes.

I have talked to Bredo at Navizon and sent him an email with my problems. Maybe if I work with them they can have a stable program for once.

So far I have had 1 crash of the ap, I had not soft reset after the install so I went ahead with a soft reset, no crash since (used twice for short times).

Having a data plan and the buddies feature on, I notice that it now by default will show your buddies last locations. This feature is pretty cool, you can also view a list of your buds and locate them easily, although I am guessing it is really showing how many km away not mile like it says.

So far w/ remote database I am liking it, I also seem to be picking up more aps... About the same for cells.
