I'm having some problems getting atlas to create proper tiles for caching. After selecting the area I want along with zoom levels I set it to Andnav atlas format and start downloading the tiles. But I notice that the tiles come out with different numbering to what they should be. Ie when I try caching a certain area using Atlast I may get a folder with the numbers 22107 and inside that ill have 157283.png.andnav however using brut to cache that exact area the numbers will be different. I'm assuming this is the reason why I can't get brut to work properly offline using caching tiles. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong or any other suggests would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Can't get it to install

removed prevoius Brut.map in recovery mod , rm shell / system/app/maps.apk

but still can't install the new version ,

and cannot install from market either

Wiped cache & dalvik but still no success in installing

any help would be appreciated
[G1 Android Development] kenkiller:
just my own update, installed the newer 4.7 update, then installed the renamed-tagged version of brut17.

ANRs up the wazoo with brut. In the end, trashed the 4.7 stockified maps, back to good old -brut version.

Same here. I've tried every method in this thread and none work. Made sure to delete apks from the /sdcard/download/ folder and everything. Can't someone make a .zip for flashing?
[G1 Android Development] Surgent:
Confirmed ^_^ (AUS)
[G1 Android Development] Lazat:
did you follow all steps? are you sure you dont have any maps.apk / com.google.android.apps.maps-1.apk laying around in /system/app/ or /data/app/. maybe you could try do clean up dalvik cache with titanium backup (or just clear the whole dalvik cache) before trying to install maps from market. you could also try to clear data and cache for market.

hope any of that would solve it =)

1: used root explorer to remove maps.apk from /system/app/

2: reboot

3: reinstall maps from market.

4: uninstal maps.

5: install bruts version of maps
[G1 Android Development] kenkiller:
Nice..... :D

Brut best improve on the map caching to keep his audience, it's the main difference between brut and stockified for those countries that navigation has been opened to.... :D
[G1 Android Development] endolith:
Yep.

Did that.

Just tried that, but neither the Market Maps nor the Brut maps.apk will install. :(

Wiped , and flashed the ROM again , and could finally install BrutMaps ( normal version )

works great , downloaded all the tiles using PC and then moved the files to the phone , the only thing that i can wish for is offline navigation , and search ...

thanks for all ur work brut !

[G1 Android Development] endolith:
It's been said that the AndNav format with so many tile files is slowing down the entire phone. I have 2 GB of map tiles, and my phone certainly tends to slow down at the launcher screen, etc. Is this true, or is it something else?

Hi!

Thank you for this excellent mod.

My problem is that I tried to copy to the SD some maps of 700Mb and now I can not open Brute mod menu. I tried to delete any *brut* folder from the SD but still it hangs.

I even uninstalled and reinstalled the app but the problem remains. Any idea on what should I try next?

Thank you

Could any one show me a way to delete the stock Google Map 4.7 on a 2.2 HTC Legend. them I can install this Mod?

I've try to remove the Maps.apk but It still don't let install this mod.
[G1 Android Development] pigfoot:
The same here. I'm afraid zip support is limited as long as it cannot handle larger size. If this issue cannot be solved, it will still need huge storage while using lots of files, especially cluster size of FAT is 4096 by default..
[G1 Android Development] SkyWalker1726:
i read somwhere that it helps , thought it could be useful !

installed successfully brutmod , but when in navigation , the maps do not load from the SD card , and when i choose Brut mod , from Menu~Options , it FCs

anyone else ?
[G1 Android Development] cocchiararo:
brut mod under navigation FCs, was this normal, and i missed it, or do i have a problem ? :P
[G1 Android Development] chanshui:
dear,

it is really a great application. i am using the previous version which is fine, but i have uninstalled and upgraded to this latest version, 4.6. however, i have tried renamed and renamed-tagged version as i am not a rooted machine, both version cannot work as it just got hanged after i pressed on the google map brut icon. my machine is a hong kong version Desire with official 2.2 Rom from HTC. anything i have missed? thanks a lot.
[G1 Android Development] mad-murdock:
Don't defrag an sdcard. It helps for sure, but defrag will bring your sdcard much faster to it's end of life cycle. What you want to do is, copy all data to pc, format sdcard, copy it back. Best defrag ever and only one additional write to your fragile sdcard.

Swyped with HTC Desire. Excuse typos.
[G1 Android Development] Peptis:
I have installed Brut-17-renamed-tagged on my N1 and it is not stopping the GPS when I exit the application (by pressing either the home or back buttons). This means that my battery is being drained until I either close maps in a task manager or Android closes the process for me (many minutes later).

Brut-16 used to quit the GPS as soon as I exited the application. Is the Brut-17 behaviour intended? If so, could we get an option to quit the application in those cases where we are trying to conserve our battery?

Aside: This is my first post here and I wanted to thank you for making the most useful app on my phone.
[G1 Android Development] algisas:
miles and kilometers

Hi,

Brut thank so much for your mod.

It's great.

There is one issue with g-maps goolge doesn't want to fix for years.

Even after countless complains.

Mabe you can?

With any english metric locale e.g. en_AU, en_DE, etc. latitude and distance measurement tool works in miles, not kilometers. While de_DE shows kilomwters fine... but all the menus are in German ;(

Could you fix that? :)

Google doesn't seem to care :(

Thank you,

Algis
[G1 Android Development] soder:
I would like that to. I use en_SE (sweden) and I hate the miles in maps.

Also, will you do a brut18 brut? With the latest maps 4.7 ?

Not reading Ziped map

Hi,

I've download and make zip of maps put it in folder tiles.

I tried to change format Andnav/Custom.

Put the directory path also w/o path.

nothing works.

In Brut Mod option I select Custom maps then enteres path in

Database Name :" /sdcard/brut.googlemaps/tiles/map-en_GB-andnav.zip"

Also I tried only zip file name

Please Guide Me. Please Please Please

:confused::confused::o
[G1 Android Development] duongla:
You have to use the default settings:

Format: andnav

And remember to enable read map from cache, the zip file name, zip folder structure.

Hi, I am new to Android and just bought Nexus one.

I like every features of the phone. However, I switched off Autosync with google account and turned off even background data. Lastly I killed all of the background running apps except 3G watchdog (to check 3G usage).

And this F nexus one still downloading some data!!:mad::mad: its downloaded like 200kb for an hour. Last week it chewed up 50MB on a day when I used data for an OTA update which was around 15MB.

I had an iPhone 3G and 3GS before, but I used iphone with push notification on and never had problem with data usage.

Why my nexus one is keep chew up my data? Am I doing something wrong?

I am sad that I need to run gmail app to see if I received new email.:(

PS. Last 3 days, I used data for like 5min per day and it chewed up 30MB per day. -_- Root the phone and flash with custom rom could help me out please!
[Nexus One General] teihoata:
download toggle data from the market place and itl switch off any data connections for you
[Nexus One General] reservin:
Is there any other way other than just blocking 3G connection? I wish I could just use internet when I need it and download only what I used. little over is ok, but 20MB per day for nothing is not alright for me.. sigh..
[Nexus One General] teihoata:
hmm I guess you can just use the toggle data widget and turn the data off when you are not using it, when you want to however just tap the widget and it'll turn back on for you. Is that what your looking for?
[Nexus One General] bofslime:
Can I ask why it is you wish to do this? Do you pay per MB?

I can understand the latter, however there is a great deal to switch off if you want to stop the phone from syncing

everything

.
[Nexus One General] teihoata:
try these

* Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Mobile networks, uncheck 'Data roaming'

* Settings -> Location & security, uncheck 'Use wireless networks'

* Settings -> Applications -> Running services, stopped all except Adriod keyboard & Live Wallpaper

* Settings -> Accounts & sync, uncheck 'Background data' and Synch is off for the accounts I have (facebook & gmail)

* Settings -> Privacy, uncheck 'Use My Location'

* Facebook -> Settings, 'Refresh interval' set to "Never". 'Notifications' set to "Inactive"

* Gmail -> Settings, 'Email notifications' set to "Never"

* Email -> Account Settings, 'Email check frequency' set to "Never"

[Nexus One General] reservin:
I just do not understand why Nexus one is chewing my data while its just sitting in my pocket, when iPhone did not. Imagine 10MB per day is equal to 300MB per month. I saw someone used 3weeks with 7MB download, which is understandable. Why mine doesn't..
[Nexus One General] alithenake:
A simple method without rooting or any other application would be:

1. Dialpad *#*#4636#*#*

2. Phone information

3. Menu

4. More

5. Disable Data Connection or Disable Data on Boot

There you go. You can enable it same way ;). Choose first option from 5. if you want to re-enable it without a reboot.
[Nexus One General] grainysand:
Ran into this problem, too. Slapped APNdroid on it since to toggle data connections, which works great except the app can be a little glitchy.
[Nexus One General] reservin:
I downloaded APNdroid as well, but it blocks 3G phone as well. I assume that it also toggle phone connectivity.
[Nexus One General] uansari1:
I think it's hilarious that you're getting so upset because your SMARTPHONE uses DATA. 250mb for a month isn't nearly enough. Do yourself a favor and get 1gb at least... and enjoy your phone!
[Nexus One General] reservin:
Well, 250mb for you maybe not enough. But I used it kind of enougly with iPhone. Also, it chewed up for no reason? I did not get any benefits with the usage. I wouldnt be upset if the data that spent by nexus one was beneficial for me. It's just leaking and I wanna know why is it leaking.
[Nexus One General] nmesisca:
man, really..

my phone is on 24/7. all day with 3G, evening with wifi.

at the end of the day i never am above 5-6 MB of data transferred in total.

Im not sure what you've installed but its not the default experience.
[Nexus One General] bofslime:
I'd argue there is reason. The major focus point of the phone is so that you can receive your data on the go. I get my email, weather, news, IM, sports scores, twitter updates, etc, etc... instantly and automatically. Not only that, but my phone backs up my settings, and contacts automatically so I don't have to even think about anything when I wipe my phone to reflash a new rom.

Frankly without all that, there's not much point to the phone. You might as well just check those things from a full scale computer, and just carry a dumb phone.
[Nexus One General] GlenH:
Really can't see why you'd want to limit the data usage of a N1 (or any other 'smart phone'). It's completely useless without a data connection!

That said, it really shouldn't use much if you aren't doing anything with it. I only use 400Mb ish a month with plenty of use including mail/calendar etc sync all the time, plenty of web browsing, google maps, podcasts and streaming music for last fm.

Maybe you have something installed that's doing something in the background (like your data monitor!?).
[Nexus One General] AudunXetrov:
I have to agree with the OP; There are cases where one would want to not get constant updates/have constant data usage, e.g. if you travel a lot (internationally), or if you're on a low budget for a period, or if you just don't have the subscription to cover it yet.
[Nexus One General] reservin:
Well, I would not start this thread if my nexus one transferes data like yours. Also whatever app I've installed, I killed all of them and still chewing up data. I know this is not the default expereice, so I wrote my exprience to see if anyone else is having similar problem and to find answers from other nexus one users who spent more time with the phone than me.
[Nexus One General] reservin:
When my nexus one had setting like your nexus one (first day I received), it chewed up 70mb on that day. I would be happy if my N1 uses the data like yours.

(This is for everyone who read this thread)

By the way, why the hell people replies with their opinion about the data plan for N1? I wrote this on the other forum and I am getting completely different answers. I did not started this thread to ask how much data plan do I need for N1. Why is everyone is just saying get a more data usage plan, smartphone needs a huge data plan. Well, N1 is not my first smartphone and I know I need bigger data plan one day. But before I get a bigger data plan, I want to find out why my N1 is using more data than other users
[Nexus One General] untrueparadox:
does it have to do with the rom ur using?

maybe weather update plugin or something random like that?

why dont u try flashing it to the stock rom with no apps installed and give it a try?
[Nexus One General] mskovrinskie:
I'm using the stock N1 ROM on ATT in the US (so only Edge). With no changes to my instaleld apps, push data, etc, I've had a few days where the phone will show constant data use for sustained periods of 4+ hours. This results in a dead phone battery within 6 hours and missed calls since the data blocked incoming voice.

I've never figured out what caused this, but clearly some background app was just needlessly chewing through data.

Is there any way to find out which process is using the data connection at any given moment?
[Nexus One General] reservin:
Its stock rom. I did not even unlock the bootloader(?). my N1 seems alrite now and I think the reason was google map. I turned on the GPS satellite thing and within 10min it chewed up 4MB, while it was idle.
[Nexus One General] reservin:
The second night with N1, it went flat from fully recharged in 8hours with 40-50MB data. Download advanced task killer to kill backgrounded apps.
[Nexus One General] moSess:
How are you guys finding g out how much data you're using on a daily basis?
[Nexus One General] grainysand:
Through an app, usually. There's a free one called NetCounter on the market, pretty handy.

You can turn on View Full Screen with the Adobe Reader 2.5 LE. Should have a button for its easy access, but I can survive that. After I get full screen, how do I get back? The menu is gone. I don't find any way to get back to normal. Since I cannot going back to normal (non-full screen), I cannot find out the current page number. Without a bookmark, how else can I resume reading?

On the other hand, the reader sometimes spontaneously switches back to normal mode. I don't know why, and I need to use the long sequence to get inside full screen mode again. So it is rather annoying. I suppose there is some notifications on the task bar.
