GeOrg version 1.1.6.4
Just another small bugfix-update for two crashes you reported via mail and one that I found when implementing the new SunMoon-Solver for 1.1.7. Seems like nobody has ever tried to create a waypoint north or south of the 60th parallel. Only traditional caches there? 😉
The fixes are listed in the changelog.
Happy caching! 🙂
GeOrg version 1.1.6.3
Some of you have reported crashes which should be fixed with this small update. Also, GCVote is working again. The fixes are listed in the changelog.
Happy caching! 🙂
Connectors updated
Today we updated the OC.de-connector as well as the sample-connector. A czech user notified us about a bug when using providers with proxies that compress HTTP-responses. He also was so kind as to provide us with a “ready to merge”-patch for the problem – thank you very much! 🙂
If you don’t have problems with connectors right now, you don’t really need to update.
GeOrg version 1.1.6.2
There’s another small bugfix for the latest GeOrg release. It fixes:
- A crash when returning to list-activites like CacheDB or WaypointDB
- A crash when trying to import empty routes
- A crash when a wrong cachetype was returned by the Opencaching.de-connector.
Thanks to all, who sent in crashreports – this really helps to resolve matters quickly!
Georg version 1.1.6.1
We’ve had reports of people not being able to migrate their database from 1.1.5.1 to 1.1.6. While we are not able to reproduce the problem here, yet – we have an update ready that should stop the error from occuring.
GeOrg – connector sample updated
We upgraded the connector-sample to show how spoiler-downloads can work in custom connectors.
GeOrg – Opencaching.de-Connector released
We have published our connector for the german geocaching-website Opencaching.de on the Android Market. If you are geocaching in germany you might want to install it to get live-access to the opencaching.de-database from within the MapPage and the FindNearestPage.
GeOrg version 1.1.6
There’s a new version of GeOrg available in the market. It has several new features and bugfixes, all of which are listed in the Changelog. For the next release, we plan to complete support for additional waypoints by letting you edit/add/delete waypoints to caches.
Here’s an overview with the most important changes in the new release:
- Additional waypoints
Additional waypoints are shown on the map, if you select a cache that has any. To keep the display from becoming to cluttered, waypoints are only displayed for one selected cache at a time and the cache you are navigating to right now. - Clipboard support
You can now select and copy parts of the cache-description to the clipboard. - Comment caches
Ability to add comments to caches. For example, you could save information about multi-stages or just make a note about the condition of the cache. (These notes are currently available offline only. Support for field-notes is planned, though.) - Solvers
Solve riddles with the new GeOrg-Solvers. This is a growing list of small tools that help you solve common geocaching-problems. This initial release features Caesar-decryption (can also decypher geocaching hints), roman numbers, vanity numbers and morse-code. - Improved visualisation of signal-quality
The quality of your currently determined position is now signalled with easy to recognize colors in the MainPage, CompassPage and MapPage. - Quick jump to cache
Clicking on the name of your current navigation-target in the Compass- or MapPage takes you to the corresponding cache or waypoint. - Multi-select on map
If there are several waypoints/caches next to each other on the map, clicking on the cluster lets you now select your target from a list. - Static routes
With this version you can import routes from GPX in the new RoutesPage. You can display these routes on the map. Also, you can save calculated can-navigation routes as static routes for later use. (Currently the distance to your destination is not displayed when using static routes). - Mark caches as DNF
- More import-options
You can now import Waypoints directly to the waypoint-list and GPX-routes from within the RoutesPage. You can opt to import all GPX-files in a given directory to your CacheDB at once and last but not least there are new import settings like “Keep Found-state for existing caches” or “Delete caches that have not been updated by GPX for a configurable amount of days” - Health-Check
GeOrg can now identify corrupt CacheDBs and fix them
Happy geocaching with the new version. If you have questions or problems, feel free to contact us!
GeOrg 1.1.6 is beta / Documentation
Just wanted to tell you that we are done with implementing 1.1.6 and now starting to test the new version. There are several changes, both visible and under the hood, so this might take a few days. We began testing by taking GeOrg out for a few caches yesterday (our first night-cache this year, due to the large amounts of snow we have this winter).
Thanks to everyone, who sent in ideas and bugreports, a lot of what’s new in 1.1.6 is based on your feedback!
As always the ChangeLog is up to date with all the changes in 1.1.6. Also, the documentation for the internal/external-storage-feature is now online.
GeOrg version 1.1.5.1
Just a small bugfix for an incompatibility with the GCVote-service that occurred since yesterday whenever you open the DetailPage for cache and had GCVote enabled in your network settings.
The code was secured, is compatible with the GCVote-service again and the annoying “Can’t connect to GCVote”-Toast was replaced by an icon.
