Submit Log Failed

If anyone is having problems with log submit failed error after reducing their TB inventory:

I had this once when my fieldnotes.txt file became corrupted.

It had some spurious characters in it.

I never did find out why it became corrupted but I deleted the fieldnotes.txt file completely and then rewrote the log I was trying to submit.

This created a new, clean, fieldnotes file and uploads all worked after that.

Now I tend to delete the fieldnotes.txt file every now and then so it doesn't become too large and if there is a problem it's easier to fix if the file is not too full.

Just an idea if anyone is still having problems.

Thank you so much for the continued updates and in particular the scrollable update. This will make an already fantastic program so much better.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Micha_X1:
Oh yes, please! That's my wish too! Sometimes when I have only a GPRS-Network it needs so long to load 20 caches and I only want to know, is there a cache near here.

Thank you in advance!

Hi

I will check "Post Log" submit fail issue.

But I only have 5 trackable, it might be difficult to check it if need 6 or more.

I need to get another trackable items.

Also, I'm working on new features. will release next version within few days.

thanks

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] docfred:
That sounds very good.

WE CAN ONLY SAY THANK YOU!

At the moment you spend very much time for programming. Is that o.k. for you? Month ago you havn't that time.

I have seen many apps for winmobile, for android, for iOS, for Garmin, but your app is still the best!

Sometimes I feel a little bad because we always have new requests. (e.g. compass support, Mystery-Coords a.s.o.) But these are only ideas that arise from the use of your program. Perhaps they are useful and realizable.

Thank you

Thanx

Hi i´m not really new here, but i started geocaching 3 month ago.

I was searching for a good geocaching app for my hd2.

i tested a lot, even with Android,

but the best, the very best is gczii.

So i want to say thanx for this great app

Tried to follow "GCzII" on twitter but it tells me "No people results for GCzII".

Can anyone tell me why?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] vidvandre:
Don't know why it failed. Though I cannot get Twitter people search (a.k.a "Who to follow") to play nice with neither GCz nor GCzII.

Have you tried by using the follow button on @GCzII's profile/page?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chrysdm:
Followed your twitter profile link for GCzII (@GCzII) and am now able to follow it.

Thanks...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Stoerner:
general question:

is CczII against the Terms Of Use ?

Groundspeak only allows PocketQuerys for getting cache-information.

But GczII "spiders" all the cache-info. So it could happen that your account will be banned from Groundspeak.

what version of GczII can I use for my WM6.5 Omnia2 Touch-Phone ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nebias:
It can be. :)

When they supply a WM6.5 Official App, I'll stop using it. :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Indianajoan:
Oh geez, maintenance today. *gears up for a Cache not Found weekend*
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] vidvandre:
I beleive Groundspeak more or less have grown to accept GCzII (as the only proper Geocaching solution for Windows Mobile users). While GCzII previously was banned on their forums (as discussions of all un-approved software is), discussions of GCzII have flourished on Groundspeaks forum since early last year. For instance see the following topic on Groundspeaks forum; GCzII is now Approved! :)

Furthermore, I wouldn't classify GCzII as a spider. I see it more as a very specialized web browser... ;)

See SecretAgentMan's latest summary post for information about the different variants of GCzII and other basic information...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nsa_sailor:
As long as you import files from pocket queries and post fieldnotes, it shouldn't violate the TOU. Only when you use it to download/upload information to your device, do you (potentially) violate the TOU. So you can use the latest version.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nebias:
Don't worry, that'll be to make the Public API available.

Oh look, there goes a flying pig. :cool:

As long as you import files from pocket queries and post fieldnotes, GCzII will work just fine. :)

downloaded caches store location

Hello, on my PDA I have main memory (64 MB), ipaq file store memory (1,8 GB) and storage card. When I am installing the great application GCzII from CAB I am not asked where I want install the application to (main mamory/storage card/build in memory). Thus the application is installed to main memory. When I am downloading the caches then, the data are stored in main memory what limits me /now I have free 10 MB in main memory (=downloaded 20 caches). In settings I didn't find the possibility to choose location for downloaded data. Is there a way how to change the downloaded data location, or Tom please could you made this possibility? I would like if the downloaded data could be stored on storage card or build in memory (1,8 GB in my case) instead of main memory. Thanks a lot, bye.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Gech:
Hi

Just move GCz folder to somewhere you want.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Gech:
Or in settings.

Download or something like that.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jake Bullit:
Try cabinstl,then you should be able to install program and data to your storage card.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
Can a Geocaching.com Basic Member please read the "Distance Measurements in Lists" section of my summary post and tell me if it's still needed? At one point, basic members had to "Download all Caches" or "Reload from Cache Detail" to get distance information in a list. I am thinking that this might have been fixed, but I'm not sure.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] LittleJohn_099:
Thank you Tom for the new GCzII.

It is the best tool fpr geocaching.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ladroege:
Keeping the full quote for context...

I just downloaded a set of caches from a dedicated set of coordinates and was given a list that included distances. However, if you want to re-sort the list towards current location or distance from a specific cache, you fail. Yo will first need to load cache details to complement the individual cache's data with actual coordinates.

The cache ratings (T/D) are only updated when loading details as well.

HTH,

Lars

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] docfred:
Hallo Tom,

I've seen, that you added the favorite rating in the list view and in the detail view. Thats great!

My suggestion is to display this like "F:10/D:2,5/T:1,5" instead of "F:[10] D:2,5/T:1,5"

On the detail page like "F:10 / today".

Perhaps there is a posibility to sort "sort by -> cache -> cache rating (or favorite rating)

Thank you

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michaelbr:
Hello,thanks Gech (Tom), Jake Bullit and SecretAgentMan. With your help I managed to change data store location. First I tried Toms advice - I took the whole GCzII folder and I moved it from main memory to ipaq file store memory...GCzII worked well, thus this is the way how to download caches not to main memory. Then I left GCzII in main memory and I just changed "Download Data Stored Folder" to "\ipaq file store\GCzII" ("/ipaq file store/GCzII" worked as well-different is in slash) and the data were downloaded to new location - perfect! The folder "GCzII" I had to create manually before. Then I tried "cabinstl" program - this is really great program - I installed "Qippda" (icq client) and Skype to different than main memory, thus I can managed which programs will be installed in main memory and which in different place and thus I can manage free space in main memory. Thanks a lot, GCzII and Trekbuddy are the programs are I use for GC.

Will you go out the screen where the installation destination is chosen when the CAB file is installed?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nebias:
Imagine this scenario.

A cache has a Waypoint on it that is for Parking.

You set Gcz to go to the Parking point.

GPS Monitor takes you there.

You cannot now tell Gcz to go to the cache point.

You have to go to another cache use GPS monitor and then go back to the original cache.

From the main cache description page:

Basic member. But these parameters are available to me as well in a list => available to GczII which uses Advanced search.

Check out the attached image.

EDIT: ahh, now I see. They have some sort of a protection. The d/t and container size is all in one image which is generated by the server and has a random name. Well, I understand, it would be hard to do OCR on these images everytime GczII loads a list.

OK, this is not a bug, it's a necessary feature. :(

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] docfred:
Hallo Tom,

I have tested this function. Works good without problems on my HD2 (performance etc)

Two Questions on this topic.

1. Is it nescessary to lock other funnctions when "sort by interval" is active?

Perhaps its is possible to stop the "sort by interval" function by tabbing a list element in order to show cache details.

2. If [1] is possible, perhaps you can store this setting (eg. [10 sec]) an reuse it when you go back to the list view.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] pfosser:
Thanks and tips

At first, I must thank You Tom for amazing GC application. I'm using it everyday.

At the second. I will add some tips or ideas, some user experiences.

Create Waypoint from cache coordinates

Now it is not possible. On cache screen i can't copy the coordinates into c'board. In Waypoint menu is no option with cache coordinates using.

? Allow "Duplicate Waypoint" without waypoint selected.

? Add "Add from cache" into waypoint menu.

? Add "Fill cache coords" option somewhere in Waypoint editing screen and in Calculate Waypoint screen.

? Allow copy to clipboard on cache screen.

Add "Waypoints" option into menu of "Description" screen.

All mystery caches have specification in cache description. When I'm final waypoint calculating, I need quick access to waypoints. This option will be very handy.

Favorites flag

When I choose some cache to solve/search, I add it into favorites list. But when I make another cache list, I don't know that some of the retrieved caches ar in the favorites list too.

? Some "In favorites" flag on the cache header should be good. Character "f" on the folder icon?

Final coordinates flag

I like mystery caches, so I often have a couple of solved and unsolved mystery caches in one cache list, but I don't know, what is already solved.

? Possibility to choose/set some waypoint as "Final"

? Show on cache header in lists, the "Final" waypoint presence.

It is no task description, Tom.

Take it only for inspiration please. :)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Gech:
Hi

>> Now it is not possible. On cache screen i can't copy the coordinates into c'board.

Which cache screen? List/Detail/Description?

>> ? Allow "Duplicate Waypoint" without waypoint selected.

I don't see it. What is the difference "Add Waypoint"?

>> ? Add "Add from cache" into waypoint menu.

Which is the origin coordinates of several type of cache?

Traditional/Multi/etc...

Need more detail!!

>> ? Add "Fill cache coords" option somewhere in Waypoint editing screen

>> and in Calculate Waypoint screen.

????

>> ? Allow copy to clipboard on cache screen.

same as above.

>> Add "Waypoints" option into menu of "Description" screen.

>> All mystery caches have specification in cache description. When I'm final waypoint

hmmm....

>> Favorites flag

:D

>> Final coordinates flag

>> ? Possibility to choose/set some waypoint as "Final"

>> ? Show on cache header in lists, the "Final" waypoint presence.

:D

thank you for the tips!!

tom
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] docfred:
From the cache description screen you can mark the coordinates of the cache (third line on the description page) -> copy to clipboard -> on the page waypoints-> Add from Clipboard. Then you have created a new waypoint with the coordinates of the cache.

Normally it is not nescessary to generate a waypoint with the cache coordinates.

- Allow "Duplicate Waypoint" without waypoint selected.

In my opinion, that doesn't make sense. If you haven't selected any waypoint you will generate a new waypoint an this is possible.

"Duplicate waypoint" is good for multi caches, if the cache have Stages without coordinates. Then you can copy the Stage waypoint an fill in the calculated coordinates.

We have already discussed the topic "final coordinates" of a mystery:

Post 4837

Perhaps Tom will find a solution. But this will not be easy, because several lists (xml-files) will be affected.

-If you exchange the original coordinates with that of the final and then update a cache list you will overwrite this.

-It is difficult to generate a "new cache" from the waypoint with the final coordintes.

docfred
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] pfosser:
Hi Tom,

I have described possible options for the problem solving. Imagine the mystery cache "bearing 70 grades and 210 meters from origin coordinates". So I can use the Calculate Destination, but the problem is how to set up the origin coordinates.

The origin coordinates are the first coordinates from gc.com.

The only place I can see the origin coordinates is "Detail" screen. But there is not possible to copy text into clipboard. But, is it the best solution to transfer the origin coordinates into waypoint?

I vote for "Add from cache origin" option in waypoints menu.

I think the same situation as "Note" menu option. As I can jump from "Description" into "Note", I want to jump from "Description" into "Waypoints".

Off topic:

Are You thinking about some calculating engine for typical mystery formulas ( e.g.: A+B+C*2-D ) ?

BTW: I have found some issue. I have had one cache, which was not able to keep the "Note" content. Reload not helped. The problem was in Cache_DB. There was the correct folder named by cache, but was empty. When I deleted the cache's folder and reloaded the cache, then was all right.

Richard
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] pfosser:
Thanks docfred,

I was totally blind. Yes, it is usable option. Thanks.

I need it very often, because many mystery caches have only fractional part of minutes diffrent from cache coordinates. So I compute the fractions in "Note" and then I must construct there whole coordinates in some "Cache detail" <-> "Note" iterations because I remember only 2 digits :D and then I copy the constructed coordinates into clipboard and go to Waypoints. Little bit tricky.

Yes, that were options for "How to initially fill the waypoint by the cache coordinates" issue.

I will read it.

Only... to replace the original coordinates with the final coords is another issue for me. My concept is some halfway solution, only how to differentiate caches with final coords calculated and not calculated. It is only flag on waypoint and showing this flag in lists, like presence in Cache_DB.

I think, that replacing origin coordinates with the final calculated, is issue which must be supported by GC.COM. All another solution cause strong application support.

I can imagine some "Final_DB" with stored final coordinates and changing all engines which calculates with origin cache coords to lookup the Final_DB whether there are coords and use it instead of origin.

Feasible in strongly object developed application, but...

Thanks docfred.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] docfred:
I have the same Hardware as you (HTC HD2 and WM 6.5). I have installed Toms latest version .68. Finger scrolling works pretty good! Perhaps you have installed the wrong version.

You have to install xxxx68_GS.zip If you take the first version without an extension, you will not have gesture scrolling

I can approve that. No additional pictures (eg. hints) are shown underneath the maps!

After the last update gc.com has got a new feature:

If you click on the blue favorite icon, you`ll get a percentage value. This represents more likely the quality of the cache. But I think this is too difficult for tom to get. They use an ajax? script.
