After installing CoPilot (maybe after installing a new version of Googlemaps ?) I have a problem with Footprints, suddenly disappeared from the Footprints menu item "Show on the map" and I have no connection with Googlemaps. What should I set to be able to move to the position on the map again ? Googlemaps is operating normally as a separate application.
I installed the latest Google maps over my existing version, but now the map search from the bottom slide menu no longer works. I also installed Opera 10, but did not overwrite the existing version (because its a beta) and the bottom slide menu still launched Opera 9.
I'm guessing I need to edit something, but can't find what, even after a couple of hours on Google.

AFAIK, if you invoke internet using the bottom slide tab (of TF) it defaults to opera 9 because of its setting in the registry. I've tried to change the default browser to Opera10 but encountered several instabilities. You'll have to invoke Opera 10 from the programs menu.
Can you invoke google maps from the programs menu? If you can, then google maps is working fine, regardless of what browser application.
As a workaround I have added Opera 10 as a custom option in the registry for the internet widget (like YouTube), so I can select it from the in internet widget page. Opera 10 is the default browser launched by other programs, but I still can't find a way of launching Opera 10 by touching the "Launch Browser" globe in the internet widget, or from any of the bookmarks in the internet widget.
Google Maps works fine when run from the Program Menu, but the Maps Search widget no longer works.

Try changing this registry:
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila2D\InternetWidget\OperaEXEfile.
Edit the contents of <OperaEXEfile> and point to Opera10.exe location. (the default is \windows\operaL.exe)
Thanks!
I didn't have that key in the registry, otherwise I would have already tried it. I added the OperaEXEfile string and it works. Can you have a quick look through your registry and see if there is one for Google maps, please?

Unfortunately, the "Map Search" was not featured in this part of the world. I installed the Google Map application and invoke it via the Programs tab, which automatically brings up the browser. It works equally fine.
Hi. I use the blackstonehenge rom and have installed the google maps cab file but i only get maps, there is no setting to enable the satelite photo view. Has anyone been able to get this working? Thanks.
Try the following :
Menu > Layers > Satellite
I use McGuider for navigation and removed the Copilot application. I like to see that this change has effect in all options. This means that I like to start McGuider from the Navipanel. Also I like to start McGuider (instead of Copilot) from the Footprints application. Wo knows how to achieve this?
Hi there,
I Have made a small gps logger application for android, hope you like it.
Features:-
Get Latitude, longitude and altitude.
Change there format to Degree, Minutes, or Seconds.
Stop and Start GPS Service.
Add the location with date and name to a list.
Save the list to user defined file.
see the current location in map in both satellite view and map view.
ability to hide any of the parameters.
Get distance between two location form the list.
I have made it for my own use during ecological survey, but hope you might find it useful, so please if possible tell me what else should i add to it.
And yes the back key wont exit the application, implemented it so that accidentally we I don't exit it, Exit the application through exit option in menu.
Download it from my website:-
ww.planetngp.com/p/download.html
Click the GeoInfo Link.
Thanks for sharing. I was wondering if there was a way to log the accuracy of the GPS?
What I mean is that although I don't have any use for such an app I am always wondering how well a new Rom/Modem performs. I normally just use GPS test in the car and look at it while I am driving (still safely ).
If this feature is already in there just ignore my comment (and thank you for the app).
K.
