Hi Orux, in a few days I'm going to buy an ant+ power meter, I already did some testing and the power data are showed correctly, but without the rolling averages (3, 5, 10, 30 seconds window) data fields, as in the garmin units, it's almost impossible to use oruxmaps with a power meter because the power data in inherently too jumpy.

Thank you again for this amazing app :!:  and please consider adding these data fields. Thanks

Hello,



I love the program and use ist often.



That's why I bought an ANT+ sensor from Sigma Sport for the speed. The sensor is also recognized in the automatic search and a blue bar moves (but only max. 10% of the total) and I do not know how I can incorporate the sensor because the tap nothing happens!



So I entered the device ID manually at the ant+ speedometer. But when viewing it remains at "- - -"! For a test I have the GPS turned off and still had a speed display in the main window ?! Can it be, that the ANT+ display not used for the ANT+ sensor ??

Did you chose to display the "ant+speed" instead of the "speed" field?

Hi orux, when selecting "share as -> gpx", the phone takes a while (depending on the track length) to generate the gpx file and then a "send mail" menu shows up [where I can select whether to use gmail or Bluetooth or whatsapp (??)]. But if oruxmaps loses focus, because another app sends a notification or sometimes even if the screen gets locked, the "send mail" menu disappear and I'm forced to repeat the procedure starting from "share as -> gpx" and I must wait again for the creation of the gpx file (and for a 6 hours ride it's a long wait).



So, what I'm asking is: is there already a solution that I don't know about :oops: ? Or else, could you create an option to select the default mail sender, in order to bypass completely the "send mail" list/menu? Or could you avoid the re-creation of the gpx file if the "share as gpx" procedure is restarted after it's interrupted?



Tanks!

Hi Orux, thanks for your response.

So no plans for implementing this feature? Even with an alert like "Using the internal temp sensor of your phone could lead to inaccurate readings, you are advised"?

I found out that temp readings of my phone are pretty accurate if you don't keep it in your pocket.

Consider that every garmin edge unit with an internal sensor logs the temperature into the file.

Hi, this beta hangs on start, on xperia active with stock rom.

I tried downloading again and reinstalling, also deleted the app "data", but nothing.

Sorry, you are right!



updated to beta3b, please, try with this version.





orux

Thanks, it works perfectly

Hi, this beta hangs on start, on xperia active with stock rom.

....sorry for my bad english...((

I practice mountain bike and my phone is exposed to rain and sweat: I want to have the view of oruxmap in real time but the screen with touch disable (raindrops and sweat generate unwanted commands on the screen)

There is a remedy?

Thanks

Hi, I use Touch Blocker

Hi,



released rc3 version;



It should solve last bugs,





orux

Hi orux, maybe I found a problem and bug:

-if cadence=0 it's not written in the gpx, while in the 6.0 version there was an explicit cadence=0 in the gpx. Is it intentional? both sporttracks and golden cheetah don't like this behaviour.

-when cadence=0 and speed>0 (coasting downhill), speed is not written in the gpx, also if at that time the correct ant+ speed was displayed on the phone.



thanks.

Hi,  Thanks!





I was waiting the test of those sensors.



I will try to add the controls you tell,



I think I'll hide the possibility of adjusting the sensor from OruxMaps; I think all these devices have some own tools to do so,





orux

Hi, I think most powermeters don't have a dedicated tool, usually they are configured from a garmin headunit.



Thank you again for the great work you put in this app

Power sensor:

That sounds very interesting.

So far I have not decided which one to buy. Would you be so kind and tell me a bit about the hardware here or elsewhere?

Hi, the one I tried is a power2max, but it was just for a few minutes. The owner says it works great.

Speaking in general it's an extremely broad subject, different needs lead to very different advice..



Anyway, the best guide is, of course, from the always accurate dcrainmaker blog:

Hi, I briefly tried to use an ant+ power sensor, it worked without issues. I couldn't try to use the sensor settings (the sensor/bike wasn't mine), maybe next time.



As for the power data field, in addition to the instantaneous power it would be good to have a 3s 5s 10s and 30 seconds averaged power fields (usually a rolling average updated every second) as garmin does.

These average are needed because power data is extremely jumpy and usually cyclists choose to show the 3/5s and the 30s fields at the same time to have a decent understanding of fast and slow power trend. Usually the instantaneous power is used just for troubleshooting.



Thanks

Dunque, la versione nuova è uscita. A questo punto la traduzione è completa (nella versione Play Store), resta da ottimizzarla perché mi pare a tratti incoerente. Prima di procedere, visto che andrei a toccare il lavoro fatto da altri e le abitudini degli utenti, vorrei un parere su alcune cose.



Dashboard. A volte è al maschile, di solito al femminile. Di regola essendo neutro in inglese dovrebbe essere usato al maschile. Però alla fine vuol dire cruscotto, che è un termine di uso corrente per cui magari si potrebbe per una volta parlare come mangiamo. Oppure no, visto che anche Apple e Google lasciano in inglese nel loro software e gli utenti OM sono abituati così da tempo. Non riesco a decidere.



No dai, non facciamo come i francesi che traducono tutto (con risultati spesso comici).

Capisco che per un nuovo utente che non parla inglese (e che non ha mai visto un sw del genere) possa essere disorientato, ma dashboard non l'ho mai visto tradotto... probabilmente perché cruscotto non è una traduzione molto azzeccata (non che io ne conosca una migliore)



Alarm. Avviso o allarme? Sono usati entrambi una ventina di volte a testa. Allarme mi sa di guerra...



Concordo ]



Quota o altitudine? Tecnicamente mi sembrano corretti entrambi. In montagna di solito si parla di quota (che è anche più corto sugli schermi piccoli), chi vola cosa ne dice?



Io non volo, comunque quota è un termine generico che si riferisce alla distanza misurata sulla coordinata verticale, altitudine è la quota rispetto al livello del mare [quindi è la distanza verticale dal mare].

Penso però che sia invalso l'uso di quota e altitudine come sinonimi, quindi scegli tu. Io preferirei altitudine, ma se non ci sta nello schermo quota va bene.



Guadagno/perdita di elevazione (preferenze dashboard). In montagna/bici/sci si parla di dislivello positivo/negativo. Altri sport?



Velocità di salita/discesa (nelle statistiche). In bici si parla solitamente di VAM (velocità ascensionale media). Che ne dite? Troppo lungo?



Se non ci sta nello schermo è troppo lungo ] interessa solo ai ciclisti [solo per loro è costante/predittivo] e loro lo conoscono con quel nome.



Ci sono due stringhe che ho nell'elenco e non trovo nell'app, "round way" e "round-trip". Avete un'idea di dove sono?



Se poi avete voglia di perdere 10 minuti per dare un'occhiata alla presenza di errori, incongruenze, stringhe che vengono troncate perché troppo lunghe (specie se avete schermi piccoli, io sotto i 4.65" non ho nulla) o altro siete i benvenuti.



Ok, appena smette di piovere attivo la traduzione italiana sul mio xperia active (3")

Bravo, bel lavoro!

[could you add the new segment button also in the TC-1 view]

Hi Orux, I'm using the beta and the "new segment" button is perfect and very useful... but I'm here with another request :mrgreen: : could you add the new segment button also in the TC-1 view? I would love it to be next to the start/stop recording button.

Thank you again.

Fabrizio
