ERRORES/BUGS / RTL bugs in 7.0.14 donate version
July 08, 2017, 04:14:07 PM
I'm using a Hebrew language version of OM 7.0.14 on a Samsung S7 with Android 7.0

In the new version clicking the right tool bar causes it to disappear and the left one apperas instead

In the statistics page, the texts runs on itself

The saved tracks list is empty

The Hebrew name of the new track is missing from the track list



Switched to English and everything is normal.

ERRORES/BUGS / Power consumption is up
March 13, 2017, 12:12:02 PM
My impression is that the power consumption went up in the last version.

I drain my battery in 4 h whereas it used to last 8. Same settings.

Galaxy s7 with android 7.0.

Thanks.

GENERAL / How do I disconnect ANT+ ?
August 22, 2016, 08:09:40 PM
I connected some Garmin ANT+ sensors.

I don't ride with them anymore, but OruxMaps keeps telling me that the sensors were disconnected every 20 seconds. Beeps too.

I searched high and low and couldn't find a place to disconnect the sensors.

Please help.

MEJORAS/NEW FEATURES / 512 px map tiles
July 09, 2016, 04:56:54 PM
Please support them.

This format is becoming increasingly popular, with mapbox maps and others.

Thanks

I used to be able to present Yandex maps correctly using this projection, now it appears as if it doesn't work and the result is a shift of some 20 KM to the north in my area.

Keeps showing me the cached tiles.

Only emptying the maps cache totally showed the new tiles.

MEJORAS/NEW FEATURES / Voice waypoint
December 28, 2015, 09:27:46 AM
I often ride my MTB fast while consulting Oruxmaps on the smartphone attached to my handlebar.

I'd like to record facts about the road to later incorporate into OSM.

Things like "vineyard on the right", "hiking path marked blue".

It would be great if I could record a geo-tagged message, hands-free, using Oruxmaps.

I'd put it in a shortcut button on the screen.



Thanks!

ERRORES/BUGS / dim wake lock bug
December 12, 2014, 02:18:36 PM
Bug with the "screen on while logging" feature.

It used to work fine, now when I put it in this position it doesn't use the dim wake lock, but stays bright and drains the battery.

Curiously, when I turn the "always on" feature off and on again, the dim wake lock it's working.

Samsung Galaxy S3.

Android 4.1.2

Same behavior for latest released version and 6.02 beta1

GENERAL / Can's open GPX files
November 19, 2014, 08:24:48 AM
When opening a GPX file on an Android phone (not from within Orux, but directly, after download or from DropBox for instance).

It lets me chose what application to use.

After choosing Orux, it opens the app but nothing happens.

It doesn't ask whether to import it to the DB, show it as a route or a track.

In contrast, Locus and Maverick handle the import fine.

Is this just my system, or the general behavior of the app?



How can I fix this?

MEJORAS/NEW FEATURES / rotating labels in vector maps
November 18, 2014, 08:43:24 AM
I noticed that mapbox GL allows vector maps rotation while keeping the labels level.

This is demonstrated, using the keyboard arrow keys, here: http://bennolan.com/experiments/walk/#17.50/-41.294436/174.772663/-124.0">//http://bennolan.com/experiments/walk/#17.50/-41.294436/174.772663/-124.0.

This would probably require extensive coding, but would be very cool and useful to have.

While mountain biking with the smartphone on the handlebar I usually keep orientation up, making upside down labels impossible to read.

GENERAL / Cumulative statistics
November 18, 2014, 07:28:36 AM
Hi Orux.



Congrats on the new version. Beautiful!



I noticed on the changelog that you added cumulative statistics, however, I couldn't find where to access this info from the app.



Can you help?

GENERAL / Which is better WMS or tile server?
June 08, 2014, 07:25:33 AM
I have a map source which can be accessed either way.

Which would be faster?

Any other considerations?

GENERAL / Calibrate maps without GPS fix
May 16, 2014, 09:09:54 AM
People usually calibrate maps at home, where there is no GPX fix.

I usually do it by comparing the map to a recorded route.

It would be nice if I could use the calibrate feature without a GPX fix.

Just drag the map around till it fits the route and hit OK.

Thanks!

COMENTARIOS/COMMENTS / Map mode in custom buttons
May 12, 2014, 12:59:05 PM
I use oruxmaps for navigation on a mountain bike.

One of the most common features I use is to change the map orientation from direction up (when I'm following a track) to north up (when I want to reorient in the area).

It would be great if this button - normally within the map menu, could be put as an option in the custom buttons for easier access.



Thanks!

GENERAL / How to save a searched route?
April 28, 2014, 11:34:55 AM
Hi,

Is there a way to save a route produced using the "search route" function from CloudMade?

That would be useful.

Thanks,

Guy

MAPAS/MAPS / Openstreetmap blokced?
April 22, 2014, 10:22:09 AM
Has the regular mapnik OSM map been blocked?

Can't download tiles anymore.

Is it the server denying access?

GENERAL / Route planner recommendations
March 25, 2014, 10:47:10 AM
This is a little off-topic but perhaps you can help me.



I'm looking for a good route planner for off-road trips (hiking and mountain biking).



The 3 things I need:



Support for custom online map sources.

Auto-routing on OSM roads - to save time when planning.

GPX export - so I can upload it to Oruxmaps.



Any recommendations?

GENERAL / Vector maps with non-Latin labels
February 27, 2014, 02:15:56 PM
I'd like to see vector maps labeled with local names (Hebrew, Arabic, Russian etc.)

Would that require changes in the theme or in the database as provided by openadromaps/mapsforge?
