GeOrg - Geocaching with Android

GeOrg 1.1.9.7

rflexor — Thu, 25 Apr 2013 16:33:36 +0000

Just a small update fixing display of Mapsforge-maps without themes.

GeOrg 1.1.9.6

rflexor — Wed, 24 Apr 2013 17:08:52 +0000

Following the last release, here’s an update mainly providing some necessary bugfixes:

Support for Mapsforge-Themes. Online-Documentation is still on my ToDo-List.
Faster GPS-shutdown when GeOrg gets backgrounded
Bugfix when trying to open cache online
Crashfix when doing car-navigation
A lot more bugfixes. Read more

I’m not quite done fixing all the stuff that you people report, so expect at least one more bugfix-release.

GeOrg 1.1.9.5

rflexor — Wed, 03 Apr 2013 06:56:34 +0000

It has taken nearly a year for a new version of GeOrg. Sorry I left you waiting so long. Hopefully the next update is coming up quicker. This is what’s in the new release:

Support for Mapsforge-Maps. This is pretty straight forward to use. Expect a short tutorial here on the site soon, though. Warning: Larger maps might lead to OutOfMemory-problems on older devices (e.g. full germany map on HTC Desire)
Cache-Page remembers last fontsize set
Automatically determining name for offlinemap
Reworked Location-Code to be more consistent and avoid error with android 4.1.2
Reworked attachment-import, hopefully finally fixed now
When routing-calculation fails, don’t automatically switch to offroad, but ask the user instead
Tons of bugfixes. Read more

I’m currently working on a new connector-sample. In the meantime – there is a 3rd-party connector using the official GC-API available at Google Play.

GeOrg version 1.1.9.4

rflexor — Mon, 09 Apr 2012 15:53:37 +0000

I just uploaded a new version of GeOrg to fix some serious issues that a few of you reported. Some features also crept in ^^

The state (scrollposition, content shown) of the last 5 listings you viewed is now remembered by GeOrg and restored when you next open these caches.
Support for new Groundspeak attributes
The theme is displayed correctly at the settings pages on devices from all manufacturers.
Fixed problems related to Android 4.0 and related to the GPS-implementation of some of the newer phones
Fixed a problem with automatic Day/Night-Theme-change.
Fixes for german translation

Next on the list is the broken connector-sample as well as the official Groundspeak API. Stay tuned.

Connector sample updated to 1.0.9

rflexor — Mon, 02 Jan 2012 20:05:50 +0000

Updated the connector sample to version 1.0.9. Changes:

Fixed a bug related to Android 4.0 and HTTPS-Requests.

There are some more bugs occuring with some of the newer devices and android-versions. An update for GeOrg is on its way.

Happy caching!

Connector sample updated to 1.0.7

rflexor — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 14:29:09 +0000

The connector sample is now at version 1.0.7. Changes:

Fixed a bug with spoiler-handling.
Fixed a bug concerning userdata.

Many of you have contacted me asking if GeOrg will continued to be maintained. It has been a pretty busy time for me lately and I couldn’t put as much effort into GeOrg as I would have liked to. Of course, development on GeOrg will continue. Please be patient if some updates take a bit longer.

Happy caching!

Connector sample updated to 1.0.6

rflexor — Mon, 09 May 2011 04:52:08 +0000

The connector sample is now at version 1.0.6. Changes:

Fixed a bug with some URLs …

Happy caching!

GeOrg version 1.1.9.3

rflexor — Mon, 25 Apr 2011 16:51:03 +0000

Another bugfix for some devices that would not display the settings-theme correct and for an annoying bug that would prevent GeOrg from starting up.

Happy caching!

GeOrg version 1.1.9.2

rflexor — Mon, 21 Mar 2011 15:59:35 +0000

This is a minor bugfix release, which mainly targets crashes that occur when importing caches from mail-attachments. Apart from that – the order in which field notes are displayed has now been reversed – latest founds are displayed first.

Happy caching!

GeOrg version 1.1.9

rflexor — Sun, 27 Feb 2011 09:24:26 +0000

GeOrg 1.1.9 is available on the Android Market. For a detailed list of changes, please have a look at the Changelog. These are the main features in this release:

Internationalization:
GeOrg can now be translated to other languages. 1.1.9 has been translated to german, something that has been requested a lot from our german user-base. Generally GeOrg determines the active language by checking your system-settings. If you do have a phone set to german locale but would like to keep the english version of GeOrg that you got used to, you can switch languages in the Settings.
Solver: ASCII:
The “Char to Number”-Solver now features an ASCII-mode
Navigation by 3rd-party apps:
In the Settings you can activate a new navigation-option, that gets displayed whenever you initiate a navigation. Selecting this option issues a so-called “Intent” to the operating system, signalling that you “intend” to do a navigation . Apps subscribe to these “Intents” and offer to take over the task: you get a popup listing the apps that are able to do navigation. Choose your preferred app and that app will be started – hopefully in navigation-mode. We already tested this with the “Navigon Select” app, if you have feedback for other apps that work or don’t work, we’d be interested to hear from you.
Support for Locus-SQLite-Maps:
You can now create offline-maps with the Android app Locus in SQLite-format and then select these maps as offline-maps in GeOrg.
Bugfixes:
A lot of bugs got fixed in this release. For a more detailed list, check the Changelog

Next, I will finish the german translation of this website and try to answer all the emails that kept piling up during development for 1.1.9 before I start with 1.2.0. Happy caching!

UPDATE::
A bug with the Zip-Import from email-attachments has been reported and fixed. GeOrg is now at version 1.1.9.1.
