MobileTracker for BlackBerry 8800 and BlackBerry 8830…

Finally I can break my silence! Having be involved in a silent beta test is good to get in tough with new technology but is really hard for a blogger…

Quote: “One more thing to say: It is currently only compatible with the BlackBerry 8800 and BlackBerry 8830. Unfortunately I had to experience that some BlackBerry 8830 devices have a deactivated built-in GPS receiver. So you check if your built-in GPS is active”

I believe my GPS on my new 8830 may be deactivated. How do I verify if it is or isn’t, and if it is, how do I activate it?

Hi Rob,

that can only be verified by your network carrier. It is a pitty that they have the right to deactivate the GPS receiver because they want to sell so called “GPS-subscriptions”. Those subscriotions just offer access to a service that is usually free! (or do you pay a monthly fee for your car navigation? )

Anyway, please check on your network carrier and you will be certain is deactivated or working.

I just purchased it.

Seem like a great application!

However, I have a problem. It does not track any points for me! My other GPS applications work fine on my Blackberry 8800, but MobileTracker always exports 0 points in my files. I have a 1GB microSD cards and the file it creates contains a bit of XML, but not coordinates. If I ask it to track each 1s and notify me each 10 points, still nothing happens after starting the tracking…

The only thing I could see, is that the first time, I would have made a mistake and did not allow it to access the GPS (I am pretty sure I did), but I cannot see this screen again since I checked the “do not ask me again” checkbox. I don’t know how to check if I got this right.

Does someone has any hints to help me?

I cannot wait to use it!

Thanks

I had this problems occasionally but it was my fault as I didn’t have GPS-Coverage in my room. Therefor, I went out and tried it outside.

Right now, it works fine for me. Sometimes I need to press start and stop before starting the actual tracking. I don’t know why but I am sure they will figure that out.

So, you get some indication when it is tracking? At least, if I know when it is actually tracking, I won’t start it for nothing.

Thanks.

Hopefully they will fix the app to be able to run on older BBs utilizing bluetooth GPS and without SD cards. I have been in touch with them and they are interrested in fixing these problems, but I don’t know when it will happen. AFAIK, to save to internal memory, they’d just need to change /SDCARD to /Device, but I don’t know the specifics. From there, it’d be easy to grab the files using the media manager or eFile.

I hope they fix it soon…I’d love to have it working by the time I go on vacation!

[...] Einige Anwendungen benötigen ein externes Bluetooth-Gerät, damit sie funktionieren. Die meisten von Ihnen werden ein Bluetooth Headset benutzen, um bequem anrufen zu können. (Ich bevorzuge das mit meinem Pearl mitgelieferte Kabel-Headset, denn es muss nicht aufgeladen werden und schaltet sich nicht mangels Strom ab). Um GPS Positionierungs-Funktionalitäten in einem BlackBerry zu integrieren, das über keinen eingebauten GPS-Empfänger verfügt, benötigt man einen externen Bluetooth-GPS-Empfänger. Auf dem Markt gibt es viele GPS-Anwendungen und wir haben sie alle getestet : BlackBerry Maps, TeleNav, Spot, BerryVine, MobileTracker, Naggie, etc… Seitdem ich den Artikel“MobileTracker auf Ihrem Pearl und Curve” geschreiben habe (der eigentlich noch nicht offiziell supportet wurde), empfing ich viele E-Mails, in denen ich gefragt wurde, wie man eigentlich das Bluetooth-GPS-Geraet zum Laufen bringt. Technisch gesehen ist es ziemlich einfach. [...]

[...] That’s great news! I was looking for such an device for more than a year! Now it is available at the shops of HK CSL in Hong Kong. Unfortunately, I could not find its BlackBerry OS for download – so I could upgrade my old BlackBerry with the new software. However, the 8120 in Hong Kong comes with features like: Wireless email Organiser, Browser, Phone, Camera, Video Recording, BlackBerry® Maps, Multi-media player, Corporate data access, SMS, MMS, and Wi-Fi! The missing GPS receiver is a huge contra argument for not buying this device. I just like to track my trips and play around outside. [...]
