Hi There
Ive tried searching high and low for this type of feature and I cannot find anything. Let me explain..
What I want to do is on my Pocket PC with a GPS unit, is basically have a program running that grabs the Long/Lat data from the GPS at a specified time interval (say every 60 mins) and uploads that to a website or FTP via GPRS.
What I plan to do on the website side of things is to have the website read from that data and load Google Maps to show where the person is!
Anyone already know a program to do this kind of thing?
Thanks in advance
Gary
Hi
I have made a program that will get the gps pos of a device and send it back to a pc via SMS it can send it to a server over gprs.
pjcltd is there any chance of a copy of the program.
Darthgus, hers a laptop solution, I am sure there is a pocket pc solution somewhere.

Try www.pocketpccreations.com
I have used it to get the location of an operator when tacking data. I have not tried to run a timer it get the data when a user clicks the button. You have to add the gps custom point.
Let me know if you need any further info.

Heh, thats exactly the sort of thing but with Pocket PC. I wanted to get the POS to a website, then use the API of Google maps to show the position.

Yea, Im not really wanting to run a program like that to do it, basically I just want something sitting in the background dropping the GPS point every x mins or x hrs type thing to a website/ftp.
We use this for our workers on the road. They send back positions every 10 seconds via their XDA & we track them on maps in the office.
However, it's part of a larger 2-way data app.

Cool will be good to have a look at, but not much use without some code or whatever as I dont want to send sms's but upload the data to a http/ftp site.
I look forward to testing this program. How do we get the unlimited version if we find it useful?

Has the program been posted :?:
If im reading this right (click the link below) has anyone tested this hack on both the wizard and Universal (exec/Jasjar etc)
http://msmobiles.com/news.php/4826.html
Be good to know, and be great if the Exec allowed this also!

Bryson, seems to work fine on Uni according to this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=216334#216334
I suggest you use only the necessary registry tweaks, not the Wizard specific cab in that thread (which also tries to enable the Uni's non-existant keyboard indicator)

im off reading up on this now, thanks for letting me know!

Just to say that I added a new post to my original one later that day just in case people start rushing off with duff info:
Well I could see my g only network before and no matter what settings (54g-Auto, 54gLRS, 54g only) I tried I couldn't connect but now I can connect and surf brilliantly using either 54g-auto or 54glrs but after changing my router to g only it will not connect so it has definitely changed something but maybe I was hasty to say is now 54g - my bad

Soince i used this cab on the universal icannot connect anymore to my wifi router. I see the network but cannot manage to log to it.
Could someone give me the original registry values of the qtek in the com in order to restore them to their normal settings in te registry.
I made a mistake and used the cab for the wizard so more registry tuning has been done without my knowledge.
But beware of trying the cab on your unversal and sequel as the effects are a bit surprising: you can see your network but cannot log in.

i know im a noob but i have a few important questions i need to know.
1st. Can you use wifi without the data plan? I bought a unlocked qtek to use on cingular and i was wondering if using the wifi on my home router was free. I really dont want to see a surprise data charge on my bill lol.
2nd. If i bought my qtek unlocked, does that mean it comes already pre registered with the wifi G or do i have to install the cab i found on xda forums to make it G. Thanks again!

Hi ipodlover77 - welcome to the forum. Using wifi as you describe is free. With some of the newer roms it is already set to G, but if you have the same rom as me (see my signature) it will not and then install the cab you found - if you use the one i made it will affect the wifi settings only
oh, then can you please give me the url of the wifi settings you made? will the settings work on a unlocked qtek, used for cingular? thanks. and also, is it possible to stream youtube videos form the site on ur qtek? and finally, (sorry, i always have a lot of questions ) how would i know if im using cingulars data charge on wifi or my own? when i scan for networks on wifi, will it says like "pay"? thanks again for all the help.

My cab is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=254420&page=15&highlight=wlan
Yes the settings will work on an unlocked qtek used for cingular. You should be able to stream youtube videos via your wifi router although only those that suit your screen size will prob work properly.
You should never have to pay to cingular for using your wifi on your home router - to test this you can switch your phone to flight mode (phone radio off) and wifi will still work. The only time you would have to pay for wifi is when you connect to a pay wifi hotspot and then you would have to subscribe to the service first.
so what is the difference between the wlan g tweak and the wireless plugin tweak? and also after downloading the right one, do i just move it to the memory card via usb and open the .cab over the phone? thanks

wlan g tweak - sets wlan to g mode and wireless plugin is a today screen plugin showing operator, bluetooth and wifi status. Yes that is correct way to install

No problem, this forum helps noobs period!
With the registry wizard this can do the g tweak for you, so you wont need my cab if you are going to install registry wizard.
Sorry dont know mms setting for cingular as i am uk - do a search it will be on the forum. What is book up? - do you mean look up? = google.
Ah ha quessed it now - backup! I use Spb backup and find it very good - http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/backup/?en
Others use Sprite backup - also very good i believe - http://www.spritesoftware.com/sprite-backup

Try this then - (from coolsmartphone.com) TinyTube.net continues to get better and better. They've now made it even easier to find, send and watch your fave YouTube videos on your mobile. Take, for example, this YouTube video. Notice the URL - it's http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCLYGoM1GrU. Now, if you'd like to watch that on your mobile all you need to do is type http://tinytube.net/watch/RCLYGoM1GrU into the address bar. Just copy the "RCLYGoM1GrU" bit and stick it on the end of http://tinytube.net/watch/ - this can then be used or forwarded to any mobile user via text or email as the address to get the video.
TinyTube fill a very important "gap" that other sites such as Google video have already plugged - being able to convert the Flash-based videos into 3GP format for viewing on mobile devices. TinyTube.net have now added an "SMS this video to a friend" feature for the USA with plans to roll out elsewhere soon.
Boot up software = how do you mean? for what purpose?

2nd) what is the fastest rom? Im using the updated qtek firmware and it is VERY slow. And i was wondering if there is a rom, that does everything the qtek rom does but alot faster.
3rd) how do i take that fricken vibration when i send a text message? I hate feelings the vibration for only sending a message.

Hey you have set up your own thread for Q's lol. First change your name to Wizardlover77 and we are in business!
If you just turn your wifi on via comm manager it will automatically search for you. Others use wififofum http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php?soft=1020
Plenty of roms out there - which rom are you using? i.e. the numbers
There is molskis rom that gives you 30mb free ram and farias new 3.2aku rom just to mention a couple. Browse the wizard upgrading for a week or so before deciding to upgrade and you will need to decide if you have a g3 or g4 chip - ipl numbers - .001 = g4
Change your notification settings for messages in settings\sound and notifications not to have vibration.

Sprite is the only app that can restore after a ROM upgrade
ok. So when i turn off my phone, it says some data will lose? which exactly will the device lose?
and also if i turn off my phone. does meschles Wifi G tweak, erase? it says its still installed but are the settings messed up or is it perfectly fine still?
ok I thought of another problem. like I said before I don't have any data plan on my package so I'm surfing wifi over my own home router. ok so I found this really cool site that actually streams the videos to my phones WM. is this costing me data I don't have? the videos streaming url was like mms something. just want to make sure its not costing me money. and lastly do they charge me for downloading stuff from the internet straight to my phone while using my router connection? thanks in advance!! happy thanksgiving everyone!
Usually I only need Agile messenger running as far as my need for data services goes. I find GPRS to be just fine for this but my device always connects to UMTS which kills my battery.
Is there a program out there that will allow me to easily switch between the data services? I thought I remembered seeing something like this but have searched to no avail.
Yeah, I also saw this kind of app that allows you to switch it right from the today screen, but don`t know actually where I saw it..
I am also looking for this app..

Hello all,
i'm searching for a tool that would avoid/prohibit automatic Internet connection.
I'd like to have a little window with a button for me to click to allow 3G connection.
I don't want for applications to connect without my knowledge.
The best example is when i'm using Wifi, i'm i'm too far and Trinity looses the Wifi connection, it connects on 3G without asking me. Then i have to quicky cancel the connection.
Is such a tool existing already?
Up!
Am i the only one who needs such a tool?
