[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gyokov:
The application logs the current CELLID, RXLEVEL, MCC, MNC, LAC of the UMTS/GSM network.

In [<Application Directory>\logs] folder two kind of log files are created:

- KML file - for using with Google Earth or Google Maps on you mobile device

- Tab delimited file

For kml file new point is created when the distance difference is >15m or cellid has changed. The size of the point depends on RXLEVEL

For tab file new row is created when cellid has changed.

Attention: Make sure you closed the application before opening the log files. Exit the application from Menu->Save Log and Exit

Requires Compact Framework 3.5

In version 3.5:

-added location map (zoom in and out with the slider) from Google Maps - the location map is updated on cell change only if tab "Map" is selected.

Hi gyokov

can you add rxlev?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fxdadbrowser:
thanx....will try it.....

Was looking for an app like this....
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gyokov:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gyokov:
Make sure that you got GPS coordinates at least once while you were recording. The program creates new point if you moved for at least 15 meters or serving cellid has changed. Also make sure that you closed the application properly (not running in background)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] qwerty00:
I don't receive coordinate. I receive only CellID, LAC, MCC, MNC :confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gyokov:
kml file needs you to have coordinates. Do you have GPS?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] qwerty00:
I don`t have GPS

coordinates problem

Hi I like it your work it´s very good. But when i can use work perfect, and after i reed the .kml on the google earth or google maps the coordinates on the sea.

I live in Argentine, my phone have a GPS, but when go to google maps mobile the coordinates can´t view same to .jpg, only view a one point by point, and the waipoints on the sea, and when i put on the coordinates on the google earth too see on sea.

I need view the correct coordinates on my country but i can´t.

Can you help me my phone is a HTC HD2 Leo

I wait for you request.

Sincerly, Merche
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] maraca:
the problem is here, missing the point on the coordinates of log that creates the soft, the coordinates are well just missing the point. I too am from Argentina

.excellent software, keep upgrading please!!!!!

bad:

<coordinates>

-588545,-274745,0

</coordinates>

good:

<coordinates>

-58.8545,-27.4745,0

</coordinates>
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gyokov:
I managed to recreate the problem when I switched the Regional settings to Argentina. I'll fix it and update it
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gyokov:
Try version 3.1. It fixes the problem.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] merche8371:
g nettrack 3.1

A lot of thanks, i download the 3.1v and later comment, Thanks. Merche

i can download v 3.1 and work it very good, now the coordinates are correct and i can view on the google maps google earth and google maps mobile, but a cellid change the number but not change the coordinates. i can view on the one coordinates diferent numbers tower cellid that's it's correct?

your work are wonderfull.

i wait your request sincerly, Merche

i wrote to you a email julian....@gmail.. but i couldn't
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gyokov:
Yes, viewing different cellids while staying in one place is normal, because radio conditions change and the mobile reselects a new cell when the cell becomes best.

Also if the mobile loses the GPS fix the new cellids are written with the last known coordinates. The idea is to be possible to view on Google Earth or Google maps how many cells serve the specific building (for example) inside which no GPS coordinates are available
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] maraca:
Exellent work!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] merche8371:
perfect i can understand to you. i have the other question if i give the cellid and mnc lac and mcc to my company cell provider, the company know what tower i talk it? Becausr i have a poor signal and i think give it the mcc mnc lac and cellid and the coordinates and the compnay give me the correct solution, it's my think good idea?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fxdadbrowser:
Thanx for the updated ver.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] maraca:
I would like to make another suggestion, the colors of the circles would have to indicate the quality of the RX signal going, for example, from green to red, green (-30 db) red (-100 db), because the cells are differentiated for number of BCCH of each. With the colors could see at a glance as the signal quality on the map. Thanks for the great job!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gyokov:
Yes, it is. You can give them only LAC and CELLID, because this is unique combination in your wireless provider (MCC is your country number and MNC - your network ID)

Also inform them about all cellids that your mobile selects. It will help them investigate the problem.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gyokov:
Yes, there is only one problem - you can choose only one property for coloring the placemark and I chose cellid, because on first glance I'd like to see different cellids that serving the mobile. There are possibilities to vary the icon or its size though...will think about it. Other problem is that you have to take into account if the serving cell is 3G or 2G, because level -100dBm for GSM is weak while for 3G is ok.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] maraca:
Is true, and there is some possibility that the application for us to choose whether we will do a test drive on 3G or GSM?. or we can choose different colors if cells or RX power?. thanks gyokov!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] xmaxin:
hello

very useful.thanks for sharing
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kniemczyk:
Is there a possibility to receive other values like: RNC or PSC in UMTS?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gyokov:
I would like to add new elements, but RIL is quite limited.

By the way the levels reported by RIL_GetSignalQuality are like 14-15dB higher than actual.

Does anybody has information about conversion of nSignalStrength to dBm?

In the description in

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa922384.aspx

there is nothing said.

For the values described there I have:

nHighSignalStrength: 4

nMaxSignalStrength : -1

nLowSignalStrength: -60

nMinSignalStrength: -51

and for example nSignalStrength: -41, while in the Field Test I have -65dBm
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gyokov:
Updated the version - 3.3

In version 3.3:

- the RXLEVEL is calibrated with FieldTest and now shows correct values

- the problem with kml file in HTC HD2 is fixed

- the size of kml point changes with change of RXLEVEL

Hi, i'm not sure i understand what is for? !!

It's for follow my device if someone stole this one or follow another device (not mine) ??
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] maraca:
Very usefull gyokov!, tanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] maraca:
apparently there is a problem with the positioning in the version 3.3

in version 3.1 when exporting the KML file to google earth positioned himself coincided with the streets not now. has changed something about this?

thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gyokov:
No, nothing has changed in positioning. The precision of positioning depends on the current radio conditions of GPS receiver. Maybe when you tried the GPS could not catch so many satellites and the position is not exactly on the street.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] maraca:
yes, you right, work perfect.

there is a chance that you can choose whether to display colors signal quality or if they will show that cell is taking the phone?, may be an option?, because the dots of different sizes do not permit to distinguish. sorry for all inquiries and complaints. awesome application!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gyokov:
Yes, for sure in the next versions. I am thinking more into incorporating the log file in G-NetLook:

http://www.gyokovsolutions.com/G-NetLook.html

in order to see the Base Stations and for example distance to serving cell.

And of course to be possible to create thematic maps (different color, size, symbol)

based on whatever element you decide (CELLID, RXLEV)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] merche8371:
Hi Julian

I wrote to you, the coordinates on .txt when i write on Google Earth i view on the see, and when i view the .kml i view on only place all towers cell. I attached to you the archive .kml and .txt if you can see.

Sincerly, Merche8371
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gyokov:
Yes the "all cellids in one point" problem in HTC HD2 is fixed in 3.3

Regarding the coordinates: in kml file the order is Longitude, Latitude while in Google Earth is the opposite - first Latitude then Longitude

I've never tried it on Windows 7. If you have such device try it please and post if it works
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fshami:
Amazingggg

Hi Gyokov,

I must say that your work is AMAZINGGGGG.

Few suggestions / queries regaring your amazing tools:

1. In G-NetSpeed: If you can also include Rxlev so that it will be easy to benchmark.

2. In G-NetTrack: Adding RxQual & Current ARFCN will be great for investigation purpose.

3. In GNetLook: What is the max. no. of Neighbor relations i can check for a single cell? Like in our case we usually have all 32 Neighbors defined in 3G to 3G / 3G to 3G. And incase of 2G the neighbor list is some what near 64.

Thanks again for the amazing work. Thumbs Up.

Regards,

FS
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fshami:
One more thing.. can i get Map integrated with GNetTrack?

I mean i can get my Rxlev & poisition displayed live on Google Map?

There is one App in Android "RF Signal Tracker" may be you can check it & understand what i mean
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fshami:
G-NetLook not working

Its me again.... :-D.

I just tried G-NetLook on my Windows 7. Every time i try to run it, it says i need Google Earth Plugin (which is already installed) & so is the netframework.

Any solution?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gyokov:
Fshami, Thanks for your suggestions. Definitely will try to embed Google Maps window in G-NetTrack.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kniemczyk:
Application should have an option to disable GPS, to store only CellID, to improve battery performance.

Also, is it possible to get information about base station from clf (clf 3.0) file, like Celltrack:

Here is an example:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Contactor-E:
Hi,

I checked the whole thread but couldn't find an explanation for the colors in the kml file. I thought that it's related to the RX-level, but i found kml points with green and dark-red with the same rx-level.

Did I miss something or is there a short description how the colors are used?

P.S.: I tested with v3.3

Regards,
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gyokov:
There is no specific coding for the colors. Just the color is diifferent for different cellids
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Contactor-E:
Oh, thanks for this information.

Any chance to make the color in the KML file rxlevel (signal strenght) dependable?

I found this information for a classification for the levels:

-105 to -100 = Bad/drop call

-99 to -90 = Getting bad/signal may break up

-89 to -80 = OK/shouldn't have problems, but maybe

-79 to -65 = Good

Over -65 = Excellent

Maybe you could combine the color with the level?

Just an idea.

Regards
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sis651:
Hi.

This application is really great, that is really what I needed for some time. Thanks a lot for sharing this freely. :)

I used it and recorded some tracks. The only signal levels it recorded was -73, -86, -99 and -113. But in phone's field test application signal varies between -49 to -113 and more... If is there a such limit, can you increase the limit so that the application can record more rxlevels.

And it would be better if it was possible to use it without running GPS, especially for indoor use. As indoor, GPS doesn't work or fix. It will be great if you put a setting for switching on and off GPS function.

My Wildfire he thing is... loud just isn't loud enough for my liking. My last soft-modded mobile ended up with a significantly louder maximum volume output due to a modified "gaintable". Is there any such thing that can be altered to increase the Wildfires maximum volume and do any modded ROM's have this in them already?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phsteve:
Is there a way to add text to either the slide or the PIN lock screen? Basically I want to add a note saying "If found call (xxx)xxx-xxxx" I want the security of the PIN lock but if I lose my phone and an honest person finds it they'll have no way to contact me to return it.

I'm using Warm 2.2.

I tried Widget Locker but its too clunky with the PIN unlock. The banner hex-edit method doesn't have enough space. I'm considering just adding text to the picture I use as wallpaper but then it would look weird when I was actually using the phone. And there is no way I'm giving up my transparent clock for an opaque one to hide it! It would also show up on other home screens. I've returned many a phone I've found on the street and it'd be almost impossible with a PIN locked phone.

Thoughts?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xHausx:
On some ROMs it's possible to use a different background for the lock screen, you could try adding that in or seeing if Myn would be willing to do it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DraginMagik:
WaveSecure can place a screen above your lockscreen. it does cost money, but that was the only solution i found when i was looking. perhaps Gingerbread will be of help when it hits.

you can look into Tasker. it may have an SMS based alert solution you could implement.

[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] jdmadonna:
Just spoke with the tech support department at tmobile... They say the tab will do voice but it has had the software removed from the build... Can someone please pull the phone apk and the phone utility apk from a euro build so we can test it on wednesday when it comes out. Hopefully this will solve the issue of no voice. He also confirmed it has all for gsm radios onboard and will work with the standard android data plan... Heres hoping...
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] ConceptVBS:
Hells yeah!

XDA GO GO GO GO GO GO !! :D
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] jdmadonna:
Just came back from demoing the Tab at my local tmobile store. It does use a standard sim. However the update is this: in the apps management screen, it seems that the only thing missing is the actual phone apk. The phone utility apk is there and the contacts apk is there. It looks like we just need the phone apk and then possibly the contacts merge apk to get voice enabled. Anyhow, the phone is being released at 11am pst tomorrow in my town, mine is on reserve so I will have it by 11:05am pst. anyone who wants to guide me into activating voice on this baby, send me a message and i will be happy to assist with trying some methods out.

I will need to try the following apk's from the euro version:

phone.apk

contactsmerge.apk

oh, the local reps looked on the computer and said that this device WILL require a webconnect data plan, not the unlimited android. There is a work around though... with voice enabled, you can call tmobile and ask for a tech support supervisor, open a trouble ticket and request an engineer to change your device ip range to that of a smartphone... then data and voice should work together. I had this problem on my aws version of the dell streak and it fixed it using unlimited voice and unlimited android data plans.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] ayman07:
i would appreciate any help you can give me. i tried pushing a modified phone.apk that was on this forum but with no success. i put my nexus sim card in there and when i launched my browser i was able to go to google.com and do a websearch. but when i clicked on a link i was sent to a tmobile site with a 404 error. not the same error that you get when u try to use a $10 data plan on a mytouch (it says u need to upgrade ur plan). it was an actual 404. but i am actually using the $10 data plan on my nexus, but since i was able to go to google.com i think theres away around this.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] shollywood:
Why don't you just flash it with the EURO firmware??
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] epakrat75:
Is it known for sure that the hardware is identical? If not, I'd say that might be a good reason. This could lead to reversed buttons, inability to get into hardware, recovery mode, etc. Also, the system dates would likely display backwards from from the US does it too. Just my 2 cents. ;)

It seem a much better idea to just pull what you want from a system dump of the euro firmware.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] maxtcee:
can someone please post these apk so we the U.S can work on calls thank you
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] xexes:
I second that request... the guy I was working with yesterday and I were stopped at loading the phone apk as well...

Does anyone know if anyone else (anywhere) is working on a fix? I've googled and googled with not much success.

jdmadonna... all of the Euro firmwares are posted on samfirmware.com ... have you checked there?
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] jdmadonna:
I loaded the phone.apk onto the tab after rooting it with z4root. Then using root explorer. It loaded fine... but then a really wierd thing happened. The tab vibrated every couple of seconds and kept showing the message : android.phone has stopped working. This kept happening over and over. Finally I turned off the tab, and rebooted... that's when all hell broke loose... lost the network provider and lost the whole baseband on the tab. Nothing would bring it back... bricked the tab. I took it back today, will wait for more to come in stock and for a REAL developer to figure out how to bypass this problem... sorry guys, I tried... and it killed the tab!!
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] clubtech:
Sorry you bricked your tab :|.

I wished you would have tried to flash the Euro firmware before taking it back to see what happens as it was already bricked.

If the euro firmwares are flashable on the T-mobile model, voice should work just fine.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] xexes:
Geez jdmadonna.... WHAT a drag... I admire you trying...

I'm hoping some developer somewhere is working on this...

I made the decision today that I'm just not going to pay ~$1000 for the Euro Tab in order to get a phone... I love the tab.... but $599 tmo off-contract is all I can justify... I can afford more, but will not spend more.

So... if we can't get the t-mo working with phone... it's going back...

effing greedy US carriers who didn't want to "cut into their smartphone sales"...

thx again for trying... will they replace it?

btw... was that the Euro version phone.apk?
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] ayman07:
You didn't brick your galaxy tab. All you had to do is push the original files back. I pushed a modified phone.apk and got constant crashes. I made a backup of the original, you should always make a backup.

:D I did it! I rooted my HTC Evo using UNREVOKED3 on Linux (Ubuntu Netbook Remix). It was tricky because I couldn't find any video tutorials of users rooting using Linux--only Mac and WIndows. It wasn't as straightforward as I'd hoped and it had me a little scared (:eek:) for a bit. It took several reboots and then it finally kicked in. Eventually it worked.

:confused: Any mod recomendations?

You're using Linux and opted for rooting with Unrevoked instead of doing it yourself? It sounds like it would have been easier.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drdrewdown:
unrevoked3 on linux couldn't be any easier. not sure what you were having problems with, but it should've taken about 3 minutes.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] semperlux:
It was easy and took about 5 minutes because my phone required two reboots where all the demo videos(Youtube) I saw (Windows and Mac) only required one. Thinking back, I didn't really have problems but when you're not sure what's happening, the entire process looks like a problem. I know what root access is on my phone is but I don't know "how" UNREVOKED3 achieves it, nor do I know how I would do it just using Linux.
