Are there any apps for Android like this one for iPhone?
AccuTerra Mobile | Home
I know about MyTracks, but it doesn't have access to maps in when you have no service.I would LOVE to find an "AccuTerra-like" app for Android that could replace a stand-a-lone GPS.for hiking specifically.

Is Google Latitude available in the UK or not, because it doesn't seem to be working for me? I have received the RC9 update for G1 and have Google Maps 3.0. Is there an a Google Latitude application that I should have or do I access everything through Google Maps? When I go the www.google.com/latitude on my G1, it offers me the option of "launching" Latitude but it just takes me to Google Maps. From there, I cannot see the locations of my Google "friends" (who have agreed to show location), neither does my own location show up on the Latitude homepage on the web (I have settings turned to "detect my location automatically").
View 13 Replies View RelatedI am new to Android and so I may be missing some very basic things here. I am trying to host custom KML files on a server behind my firewall and display those KML files on the Android emulator. I started by writing a simple app that uses an Intent to display the overlay and pointing the app at geo:0,0?q=
http://code.google.com/apis/kml/documentation/KML_Samples.kml. This works in the emulator.
Next I downloaded that KML file and posted it on my web server (Apache 2.2 on Fedora). I added an AddType directive for the .kml extension and restarted HTTPD. When I point my simple app's Intent to my internally hosted KML file I get the error "The community map could not be displayed because it contains errors." I added some code to try and download the KML file independently of the KML so I could check the status line and the like:
final HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
final HttpGet get = new HttpGet("http://mycompany.com/data/KML_Samples.kml");
try { final HttpResponse resp = client.execute(get);
android.util.Log.e("MapOverlays", resp.toString());
} catch (Throwable t) {
android.util.Log.e("MapOverlays", "Exception", t);
}
With a breakpoint on the first Log message line I can inspect the results:
statusline = "HTTP/1.1 200 OK"
Content-Type: application/vnd.google-earth.kml+xml
Here's the Intent I'm using:
final Intent intent = new Intent(
android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("geo:0,0?q=http://mycompany.com/data/KML_Samples.kml"));
startActivity(intent);
So the two main questions are
What do I need to do to get KML loaded from a private server?
What tools are available (if any) to determine what is wrong with what I've done (something more informative than "The community map...")?
Has anyone been able to get this new version of Google Maps that syncs Starred places from your desktop to your phone? Official Google Mobile Blog: Take your places and searches to go with Google Maps for mobile). This feature (accessing starred places) is one of the few things I miss about my Windows Mobile phone.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have fairly large map overlay that I am displaying over the google maps data but would still like to see the country/state/province lines through my overlay (so the lines would essentially be on top of my overlay).
As I understand, these lines are simply polygons drawn over the maps. Is there any way to access these? If so, how do I get them to show up through my overlay images?

Is there an easy way to access "my maps" (that I have saved in Google) from Android 2.0 Google Maps App? Seems like there should be. I can go through the browser, and it takes a few clicks to get to there, but I can't even click anything when I find the map I want. It doesn't go anywhere, just stays on a Google screen with some text about the map.

Anything like that available ? For example, is Google Earth downloadable ?
I'm trying to access the google 'my maps' I've created on my new Droid Eris. I don't see a layers option in google maps.
I downloaded my maps editor, and if I try to load a map, it just says "loading" indefinitely and never actually pulls up the map. There are only a couple dozen points on the map I'm trying, so it shouldn't take that long to load. I've tried deleting the app and re-downloading it. I've tried restarting the phone. I've tried accessing it by clicking a link in an email, all with no success.
I'm just dumbfounded that google's OS is making it so difficult to access a google map. Even my piece of crap WM5 phone could do that.
So I cancelled my all access trial, I don't find it useful to me, even though I cancelled it, I'm still seeing radios, and other all access features. Will it disappear from my Google Play Music after it's supposed to expire (06-07-2014)? My account type still lists as All Access...

I'm using the latest version of Google Maps on JB 4.2.2 [Nexus 4]..I noticed that I cannot edit the names of my locations in "My Places" in the phone app. So I used Google Bookmarks (google.com/bookmarks) from my PC to edit/rename My Places. However, the names do not sync or carry through to the Google Maps app on the phone. The names in the app are still the generic names, coordinates or street names.
Is there any way to change the names of My Places and get them to sync with the phone app? Really baffling!

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am working on an app where the user inputs some numbers, my app performs a few relevant calculations, and displays the result. However, I would like it if the user could somehow save this value to a Google Spreadsheet.My problem is, I have no idea how to authenticate with Google. I have been Goggle'ing this for awhile, and found: http://code.google.com/apis/documents/docs/3.0/developers_guide_proto.However, when I try to use the command ClientLogin in my code, it tells me this is undefined. I have the Build set to SDK 7, which is Android+Google, and I have: import google.*; (I did this just to play it safe); Anyway, I would appreciate any help I could get. If there are any tutorials or code snippets out there that can help, please send me the link.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am using Sygic Mobile Maps 10 on my N1 and now got if for my girlfriend's i7500. It installed fine but when I start it up and try to activate a map, the screen where it should show the device id is just empty (it shows a -). If I go to the About screen, it also doesn't show a device id. I contacted Sygic already but they don't know anything about the i7500 and Google doesn't really help either. My current guess is that it doesn't work with the internal memory card as the device id is apparently generated based on the sd card's serial number (Sygic used to distribute the software pre-installed on a sd card). So maybe the software can't recognise the serial number of the internal card and hence can't generate a device id...but that's just my guess. I just want to avoid wasting money to buy a microsd to install it on there if it turns out that the app is just not working with the i7500 for other reasons...

View 9 Replies View RelatedWhen I first ran across PhoneGap, I was excited because I envisioned simply dropping in the URL of a mobile site and simply updating the mobile site to use the devices capabilities when available.
Alas, it seems it is not that easy.
From what I understand (and I could be incorrect), any HTML/JS access to the device's hardware is limited to local 'pages'. So essentially create a HTML/JS local 'web' app to access the 'real' mobile web app by AJAX like calls. It seems a little redundant (at least to me) when the point is to simply extend the interface an existing mobile site.
Not trying to knock PhoneGap here, just wondering if there's a similar framework that allows a remote site to access the phone's hardware directly. Or if I've missed how that can be done with PhoneGap.
(Sure, I know "allows a remote site to access the phone's hardware directly" sounds scary - but the URL is hard-coded in the app, and HTTPS could provide authenticity. Of course, security is probably why this isn't supported by PhoneGap.)
