[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _Rayman_:
The new finger scrolling feature is absolutely great! Thank you very much!

(Solving one wish leads to some other ;-) It would be nice to have the gesture scrolling also within the cache log's where a left/right gesture flips through the log entries. Currently one has to select the back menu, and the select the next item, again and again when reading the cache logs ..)

Best,

Stefan

I did the upgrade, but sill have my WM6.5 phone for geocaching. I use .gpx files, or do the scraping while connected to my netbook. WP7 is sweet, but sometimes I miss WM6.5 (only for geocaching though).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nsa_sailor:
Did you know that Geocaching.com has an application for geocaching using WP7?

Tom,

You are amazing!!! I love this app and have been using it religiously since I had to give up a work iPhone (and this is so much better than the official app!)

Your dedication is definitely appreciated! I've got my Treo Pro for at least 4 more months, and I don't know how many caches I'll log using this app by then!

本当にありがとうございます！
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SdKfz.171:
Hi,

as I remember from my schooldays, there is no such thing as "zeměpisná výška". Instead of this Czech language uses "zeměpisná délka".

So, it would be better to use:

"Zem.délka" instead of "Zem.výška"

"Zem.délku" instead of "Zem.výšku"

"Zeměpisná délka" instead of "Zeměpisná výška"

"Zeměpisnou délku" instead of "Zeměpisnou výšku"

"délka" instead of "výška"

"délku" instead of "výšku"

I am sorry I've noticed this a little bit late, but I tend to use the English version of GCzII.

Hi, I have problem with this error, appears every time when i press "Go", does the same on 3G and Wi-Fi: "Internet connection [ConnMgrMapURL] failed."

the app was working flawlessly (I had version 54). After some time (few weeks ago?) it stopped working with this error. So today I uninstalled the old version, installed ver. 64 and hoped it will fix it, but it didn't..Any help/advice? I googled for this error, found some posts but they all were unanswered.

Omnia b7610, WM 6.1

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
That error relates to a function that helps a program determine the network to use when a programs sends a URL request (i.e Internet, work network, etc). It's not likely that function broke in GCz, since it seems to be pretty much working for most, so think about anything else that might have changed on your phone around the time it stopped working (i.e. new programs loaded, etc).

Is this an intermittent problem, or is it totally broken?

A couple things come to mind:

1 - Soft reset

2 - Turn off wifi and try with a STRONG data connection.

See THIS POST. PM the user and see if/how they resolved the issue.

Hi, Tom,

please, can you provide me with resource file for Czech skin? I believe that as a part-time translator I can help you with some review or check-up. Although I'm using default English skin of GCzII, I want to correct such nonsenses as "longitude" translated as "výška".

is there a better way for downloading updates?

Hi all.

Just one more time: Thanks to Tom an all others helping me to perform geocaching with such a great tool.

BUT:

Due to often changes on GC even GczII has to be updated very often (which fortunately is done by Tom).

Since I haven't got the possibility to load my PDA through a PC (on work)

I have to use the PDAs browser.

Downloading the major releases through nicque isn't an issue, but did anybody try to hunt for updates in this forum with only having the PDA? :eek:

I'd like to know how others perform their updates.

Can anybody think on an better/easier way to get informed and updated?

Maybe a kind of newsletter, topic: (GCZII new version 0.2.35.65! Download here) that's send out automatically each time an update (new version) occures?

I'd like to have it easier for everyone, - ALSO for Tom.

So if anybody has an idea/knows a tool or script: You're welcome. :)

Maybe we can find a solution.

"personal cache Note"

Hi Tom.

Thanks for that quick reply.

So on twitter... maybe there's no longer way for me to get around things like twitter and facebook ;)

I just installed the .65 (previously to my post I have just installed the 64++++)

I can see what I once noted in "Personal cache note"

But is there any way to write to that field from GCZII?

The Button "Notiz" (note) is still greyed out, but I can see the note somewhere within "Beschreibung" (Description)

regards

Andre
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Gech:
Hi

There are 2 kind of note.

1) Note is just memo pad. (with Hand writting)

2) Personal Cache Note. (in Cache Detail, Description)

There is no relation between those 2 items.

If "Note" button is grayed out, you can create it from Menu.

Once make a note, it should be enabled.

thanks

tom
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Andreha:
Aaaaah! :-)

I thought that "note" and "personal cache note" were the same.

OK.. so there's no way to edit "personal cache note" from within GCZII?!

Maybe there's some more I missunderstood:

From Cache-screen > menu > logging/fieldnotes >

> mark > fond/not found

this is only local function?

> logging

similar to "log your visit on GC?

> fieldnote

local or similar to "personal cache note"?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Gech:
>> > mark > fond/not found

>> this is only local function?

>> > logging

>> similar to "log your visit on GC?

>> > fieldnote

>> local or similar to "personal cache note"?

"Personal Cache Note" is just read-only in "Description" of Cache Detail.

There is no way to post it to GC.com from GCz.

You can find "FieldNote.txt" in GCz folder.

This file is results of cache hunting. (Found/DNF)

You can post the text file to GC.com from WEB Browser.(Not from GCz)

All results can post at once.

Also, you can re-use the results to post GC.com from Cache Detail but one by one.

thanks

tom

e.g)

Imagine, you are out of 3G signal because in deep forest now.

And you found(or DNF) several caches there but you could not post the result.

You used "Mark" to save the result in local.

After that, you are in 3G area now.

You can post the result to GC.com one by one from Marked list.

or

You can post "FeildNote.txt" via Web browser.

FieldNote.txt contains all results. so you can post all results at once.

thanks

To use Skin, you need to be match the version between GCzII and Skin.

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

that is really great: V .65

So many improvements!!

Thank you!!

I want to bring three functions into discussion:

1. An auto update function for "sort by distance from current location"

Perhaps it's possible to set an interval (for example 30sec, 1min, 5min, etc) to sort again.

If you walk, drive by car or by bike the list will then show the cache nearest to you on top automatically .

2. This is a function I've already posted some times before:

If you solve a "mystery cache" (normally at home), you'll get final coordinates.

On caching tour this cache is then treated like a "traditional cache". For example with google maps.

Normally I store this coordinates (sometimes with additional notes, for example a nescessary unlock code) in the "personal cache notes". Now, with the new functions it's easy to generate (from the PCN) a new Waypoint for the final.

It would be very useful to exchange the coordinates of the cache by that of the final.

3. Perhaps it is possible to you an offline map, like xmaps or something like that.

@ all

I would like to hear your opinion.

docfred
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] martinhe:
It is possible to fieldnote wrote to automatically date and time as text to the log?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Nebias:
I agree :D

Too much of an overhead for me. My list has 500+ caches and takes about 30secs sort. :eek:

Would be good if it sorted by distance from last Found cache tho'.

i.e. When you flag a cache as Found it automatically re-sorts the list to show the next nearest.

Definitely, cachemate had a flag to indicate Final coords had been updated.

Very useful...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] docfred:
This function should be optional (activate/deactivate)

docfred
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nsa_sailor:
+1

It would be better to display the found/not found icons on the scrolling log pages as well.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nsa_sailor:
For my two cents, I think that this would be too annoying to have them jumping around all the time.

Using Google Maps to see where you are and where the caches are in relation to your position is a lot better.

(Don't you just hate it when someone rags on your idea?)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tr8000:
Maybe it's possible to add an "Online" option to this improvement: "search for nearby geocaches" with auto update...

Always know which geocaches are around you a.t.m. - dreams come true... :rolleyes:

+1 for me! in suburb or rural regions mobile internet is so slow... and it's a mess walking around without maps... OSM support would be amazing! :cool:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Titus_Andronicus:
I aggree with nsa_sailor. Have you ever used C:geo? it does that auto update. It ends up being a resource hog, slowing the phone down to a crawl. I have never had a problem with the way GCzII does it.

I agree! this would be great. The current method of using GSAK is annoying.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] docfred:
autoupdate:

I don't want a new online search. I only want to sort the current cache list frequently.

I should be able to activate and deactivate the function.

The interval should also be variable. If I want to sort a list with 500 caches or more, this will not be useful. But a list with <100 caches(google maps also displays only 100 Caches) and update every 1 minute should work. For example the Garmin Oregon shows the cache nearest to my position.

docfred
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
Updates come in 2 forms. The first is where the new app gets posted on the GCzII web site. You can monitor that page using www.changedetection.com. It will send you an e-mail when that page changes, which is likely to be when a new version is posted.

For new versions where the cab file is posted to the web site, you can use the AppToDate app, which is run on your phone. It will search for new versions of GCzII and will install them for you. The idea here is to run AppToDate after you get an e-mail from changedetection.com.

The 2nd type is where Tom posts just the .exe that has to manually copied over the existing one on your phone. I've been referring to these as interim releases. AppToDate won't help you here. If you can't connect your phone to your PC at work, but you do get e-mail on your phone, try e-mailing the .exe to yourself. Then just copy the attachment over the existing .exe.

I understand why Tom doesn't want to cab up every release he does, but maybe we can talk him into doing it just a bit more frequently!!! :D:D:D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
1. Try taking EVERYTHING out of your inventory.

2. Also, when you say Language is English, that's what's set on GC.com, right? (i.e. not what you're using with GCzII.)

3. On the home page in the lower left corner, the version does end in ".65" right? (Don't mean to offend you, but crazy things happen here . . . )

4. Are you running a skin?

Max
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
No. In GCzII. I don't have any bugs in my possession now, so it's a bit hard for me to describe because I don't have the menus enabled.

In GCzII, you can get to your inventory of TBs from a cache page. Select the "Inventory" button. If you have more than 5 TBs in your inventory, GCzII may have posting errors. To fix this problem, you can move some of those from your inventory to your collection to get to 5 or less. I can't tell you how to do this since my Inventory isn't enabled, but maybe you can figure it out from what I've told you.

I think Titus A figured this out, so hopefully he can explain it better.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
Lets try this again . . . ;)

Earlier, you said that you could not post a log, getting a "log submit" error. But now you said you couldn't log in, which is a totally different problem.

So as of right now, what is the exact error you are getting and when do you get it?

Have you gone through one of my summary posts and tried everything mentioned there?

1 - Make sure you are not running a skin.

2 - Do you have any travel bugs in your inventory?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] LittleJohn_099:
thx

1. no skin is running

2. yes, there are 9 total TB (Overview -> Trackable)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
I think your problem is the number of TBs you have. See THIS POST where I try to explain what to do. Basically, in GCz you need to reduce your inventory to 5 or less by moving TBs from your inventory to your collection.

Titus Andronicus on this forum can explain it a bit better. I'm sure he'll post shortly. PaulLoft can probably weigh in here, too.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] docfred:
The TBs in Overview-> trackables only show the TBs you own and the TBs you've found.

The problem is the amount of TB you hold at the moment. On geocaching.com you'll see this on the page "your profile", the right side "your inventory".

In GCzII you'll see it-> Post Log-> Inventory.

docfred
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ladroege:
In gc.com there are direct links at the top of your overview page to your Trackables Inventory and your Trackables Collection.

Unfortunately you can only move trackables to collections if they have the "collectible preference" set. If this attribute is not set (and you are not the owner, so you could set it yourself) you will need to log via gc.com and drop trackables there until your inventory dropped to 5 or less items.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] LittleJohn_099:
That's it.

A simple solution, for that Problem. Thanks so much for that.

Slightly off topic - TBs Collection vs Inventory

Thanks Docfred and Ladroege for jumping in with the TB explanation. I very seldom have more than a couple TBs in my possession.

What's the purpose of having an inventory AND a collection? Seems confusing to me . . .
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] docfred:
Normally TBs and coins travel from cache to cache. Some trackables have a special mission, some not.

You can also collect trackables, if this is allowed (You can mark your own coins as collectable.Then it is allowed to remove the coin from circulation. I myself never have done that for one of my own coins!) Sometimes there are coins that are very seldom. For example a special coin of a mega event, you can buy such a coin an collect it. This trackables are stored in your collection. You cannot drop such a coin until you move it to your inventory. Coins in your inventory can be dropped by logging a cache. The amount (>5) of these trackables causes the problem.

cache->overview->trackables is neither you inventory, nor your collection.

The trackables on the top of the page are that you own. the ones on the bottom of the page are the trackables You have grabbed or seen. (Like the caches you own and the caches you've found).

docfred
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Indianajoan:
Sorry it took so long to get back to you. I meant that when I have a list of caches they are sorted from the distance of the original search parameters. When I then put 'Sort by... Distance from Cache' I get 0s and no direction indicator. Not even when I Reload from Cache Data. This would be helpfull when I am spontaniously caching or wanting to cache in a specific direction
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Yorkshiretaff:

Just wanted to say thank you to Tom for once more providing a top quality application. Having used the official geocaching app on Windows Phone 7 I can honestly say that GCzii blows it out of the water.

Also a big thanks to Paul for all the support you provide.

Just one 'little' question if I may... I've been having trouble keeping up with the rate of updates to GCzii (the updates being a massive PLUS for the app) as I usually only have phone access. Is here any way a twitter account could be setup for notification?
