Subject: | Problems exiting TMJ-mobile | |
wojsyl 19:20 | Since I upgraded to 0.5.4 I'm occasionally experiencing problems exiting TMJ-mobile. Upon pressing "9" (exit) in the main menu it simply says "Exiting TMJ-Mobile Please wait ..." and seems to be doing nothing. Other times it exits all right. It never happened with 0.5.2 to me. Anyone else had this ? Thanks. | |
wojsyl 19:24 | P.S. It does not really "hang". The application seems to be running behind the "please wait" window. It seems this happens after a longer use, but I've not been able to find the exact conditions of when it exits all right and when it does not so far. | |
Stephen 20:23 Location: Phone Model: | I'll look into this - which handset are you using by the way? When it does this how do you eventually get it to end - do you have to completely reset the phone? And when you then restart the program is the previous track still recorded up to the point where you tried to exit? Thanks, Stephen | |
wojsyl 6:57 | It is SE K600. I have to reset the phone. I'll try to reproduce the sequence that leads to this behaviour. I suspect it has something to do with when/how I connect to GPS. Yesterday I've seen TMJ reporting it is BT connected to GPS but zero satellites, I don't know why. I probably wrongly thought it was a receiver problem (Holux M-1000) and I reset it but it did not help. Then I had the problems exiting TMJm. I'll need to see if this happens again in similar circumstances and will report. Many thanks. | |
wojsyl 7:55 | It still happens occasionally but is non-deterministic so far. One theory I had was that this happens when I have a larger number of waypoints loaded, but again, not always. | |
wojsyl 16:48 | OK, I believe I've collected enough evidence to believe this is bound to the waypoints. I'm using TMJ-mobile 0.5.4 on SE K600i. Normally, I have "connect GPS" and "enable upload" set on when starting the app. When I have a larger (some 400+) number of waypoints loaded, the TMJ-mobile does not connect to GPS upon start. I also cannot connect "manually". I don't know the program's internals but it seems as if the waypoint importing thread gets stuck. Otherwise the program seems to work, however I cannot exit it. I can only kill the program or restart the phone. The way around this is to flush the waypoints ("clear waypoints"), kill the program, start it again, connect to GPS and then read the waypoints file again. I think someone else already reported having similar problem and not being able to exit TMJ-mobile 0.5.4. Can you confirm that you had waypoints preloaded as well ? I'm happy to supply the one of the waypoint files that I'm experiencing the problem with. Many thanks. | |
oldgeek 12:13 | I have the 8300 and if I enable the check mark on "Enable Upload on Start" it will cause the same situation, it just hangs on exit but I can click my trackball and I get 1 option, "close" and that forces it to close. Hope this helps | |
