i Guys,
I want to share with you this little app I've done to check the london tube status.
Any feedback very appreciated!
Cheers
Awsome. I don't use the tube that often but when I do there's always something wrong! Now if you could incoperate a tube route planner too that would be quality, one that would avoid lines if there where problems on it?
I assume it downloads data from london transport or something? They'll have to sort out a mobile signal in the tunnels now!!!

Thanks ...
Well I don't know if I'll have time to add that feature but...If someone wants to help me PM!
I forgot to say that if you click on the status gives you a description of the error...
It uses data provided by http://bendodson.com/ which are taken from TFL...(Thanks Ben!)
Hi Pureheart,
Good app, but I have experienced the following problem:
The app ran and provided an up to date staus. The next time I ran it, I get the error:
"OPS, Just close and reopen the app. Exception message: The remote server returned an error 403 Forbidden".
I have cleared the error once by a soft reset, but now I get it every time I run it.
Any thoughts?

MMMM I never had that error before...
Have you left the app running in the background?
Have you checked your internet connection?
Try to close it with the OK button and reopen it again....
Let me know how it goes!

Have a look at Métro - http://nanika.net/Metro/
THANKYOU! been looking for an app like this for ages! Saw one on the iPhone and for the first time was slightly jealous
hungry for more
that is a beginning of a great app ...as u probably could also add train service disruption status fetched from http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/service_disruptions/today.html and airports arrivals and departures....that app would rock
Good job Pureheart but another version already exists before:
http://www.davidwhitney.co.uk/conte...n-tube-status-updates-on-your-windows-mobile/
Mobile TFL utilises fullscreen completely with the tube lines. Looks great on my HD and been using for ages. Always use it when on train to London so I can plan which tube lines to take or avoid. One of my mostused apps ever.

Looks like Google released a new version of GMM. No longer do I get those pesky wininetread errors.
The new version is 1.2.0.2
I'm running Shadow as well.
Here's the link I used from pocket ie: http://www.google.com/gmm
The file is called: googlemaps_compressed
PM
Do you have a linky at all?
Matt
Link to new Google Maps
http://www.google.com/gmm/GoogleMaps.CAB
...or just go to google.com on your phone and you should get a link to if from there on the home page...
Smiffy.

Guy, that's lazy.
And then noobs complain when other members are blunt.
Google is google, and the biggest search engine in the world. Google Maps Mobile is one of their most famous --and only PPC apps-- how could you or anyone else not find the App? Type Google Maps Mobile on your phone or PC?
Sorry, to put this in the spotlight but this is an obvious example why members get upset at new users and don't worry it is not just about you. Currently there are been an ongoing issue about Noobs.
Plays nice in WM6
This new version seems to work better in WM6 ... I can now drag my screen to move the map without the annoying data/refresh errors I used to get in the last version.
Good catch.
The initial version of the program was pretty unuseable due to the error messages.
Hope this version is better!

Street view is so rediculously stupid. In fact I was talking to a director at Google a couple of weeks ago and told him to stop focusing on that poc street view and fix gmm. GMM, after their search engine and maps is probably the most useful thing they have going.
I then proceeded to show him how gmm was incapable of finding the party we were trying to go to because of all the errors. We eventually got there. This new gmm came so quick after that incident... hmm I wonder...
Seriously though, street view??? Can you think of a singe legitimate use for it beyond the cool hey there's where I used to live in manhattan?

But no new features
Yes, the new GMM is nice, in that the wininet error is gone. I haven't played with it too much yet, but the one thing I DID notice is that there is still no hybrid view, with streets superimposed over a sat view.
Again, haven't played with it too much yet, but I haven't seen anything new, outside of the error fix. Has anyone noticed any new functionality?
-pvs
[EDIT] Well, I clicked around with it a bit, and while I AM happy they fixed the glitch, I'm saddened that they couldn't add a few new features, for instance:
1) Hybrid view, as mentioned above
2) The ability to move it's cache to a storage card
3) The ability to preserve my historical locations, searches and directions between upgrades
But again, I'm happy they fixed the wininet glitch. And I guess ... what do I want for free, right?

Agreed, sorry to wander...
I'm just excited to try the new GMM.
How about a legitimate use for an average person. Everyone needs GMM, very few need street views. Street view is the kind of thing that seems cool and you can talk about at cocktail parties, but you will never use. I use mapping software nearly everyday. And if they get traffic working, could increase productivity in this country by millions if not billions of dollars.

yes. i love it. i live in nyc. now when i go somewhere that is unfamiliar i check it out on street view first so i know exactly what im looking for when i get there. i love it.
I will agree that the street view is not that important. It's more like a 'wow, this is cool' kind of feature.
All in all, this new release appears to be very stable. No annoying errors.
I think this is the future of GPS programs. It is much easier to distribute new maps when available, and add new features.
I envision a program similar to this which simply caches the maps you use most often on the device, and updates them via your data plan whenever an update is needed. If you go to a new city or state, the device starts caching the new area.
GPS works better. yey! You can now configure the GPS, so there's actually a chance of it working
new option in GMM
DTX is corrrect, there is now an option to specify which serial port your GPS is on unlike the previous version. I didnt find this useful because I always set my GPS up under Start-Settings-GPS but you do have an option now to over ride this setting.
I drove around all day yesterday trying out the new GMM to see if the WINNET error would reveal its ugly head and it didnt. I was even out in BFE yesterday and when I would loose cell coverage and then come back in the GMM went to work to catch me back up.
My only wish list thing would be to orient the map depending on which direction you are heading. This was a feature in Pocket Streets that I found very handy instead of playing a guessing game as to which direction to turn...
Enjoy!
I don't know about anyone else in the UK but I could really do with an app that allows me to search for train times.
http://www.nationalrail.co.uk just about works in Opera but it's slow to render and fiddly to have to fill in the boxes as it doesn't scale very well onto the WVGA screen. What I reckon would be great would be an app that can do the searching for you, with nice big boxes making it easier to type your start and end points.
I've searched around and not found anything out there that seems to do the job. I came across a .jar programme here (http://www.getjar.com/products/903/LiveUKTrainTimes) but It's not very user friendly and only does live departures/arrivals rather than a search of the National Rail Enquiries database.
Anyone know of anything out there that would do something like this? Or does anyone want to take a stab at developing it? I've seen the thread for the Australian train times but haven't tried it out as yet.

If you find anything, I'd also be interested.
What I've done is downloaded the timetable in pdf format and use adobe viewer to view this on the phone. Obviously there is more trainlines in the UK than there are in Ireland so this maybe wouldn't work for you. (Only 4 lines in Northern Ireland)
I would definitely use that! I love the national rail site because it lets you set favourite journeys. An app like that would be indispensable to me.
Have you tried the show directions option in google maps?
This uses the application Transit on the "Public Transport" tab and seems to work well for me in Switzerland. But, I don't know about UK - give it a go.
Have you seen this amazing application?

Looks good, I am also interested, especially since I use Chiltern, Virgin and TFL a lot. Being able to get train times in a minute on my phone would be great.

Annoyingly I don't think it does work in the UK (at least it doesn't for me). I can only use walking and driving. Mass Transit is a no-go.

Am I right in thinking this app lets you know how to get from a to b on underground systems? I'll have a look but I don't think it does the kind of thing I'm hoping for. I'd like to have an app that pulls data from the National Rail Enquiries website. Even better would be a push of any issues with 'Favourite' lines esepcially at rush-hour.
I'll have a look at that app; even a solid knowledge of the London Underground sometimes fails when meeting a friend at a pub in a random part of Town I seldom visit!

That is the dream my friend! I use a mixture of Southern, South Eastern and TFL. No so fussed about tube times; is there every such a thing as a timetable down there in reality? Certainly doesn't seem to be the case on the Northern Line coming out of London Bridge in the morning!
Use National Rail's WAP site which looks nice and big in WVGA -
http://wap.nationalrail.co.uk/
or you can text the station you're going from and too and it will tell you the next 3 train times - all the info is here:
http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/passenger_services/info_on_the_move/
Or try:
http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/mobile
It is a bit more user friendly

I don't own the Evo but I got a chance to play with one. I noticed the screen froze up every time I tried to download from Megaupload. I tried it again and the same thing happened. Was this just a fluke?
Trust me, Im loading mine up with "good" software and most of it is either torrents of file sharing sites like you describe and I have had no issues on either.
However, getting a good torrent app is a bit of a challenge. I ended up using andTorrent as aBTC kept force crashing.

I can't download from sharing sites because of their countdown timer, doesn't work right, so i just grabbed skyfire for those sites.
The countdowns are java based. As long as you have java script enabled in your browser it should work. I just grabbed a file last night off of 4shared with the stock browser with no problems.

I have found the timers will sometimes lock up is you zoom in or out on the screen. As loon as I leave the screen also (can switch windows though) it is ok.

Hello all, thought I come here and post this since the developer of the reinstaller app doesn't have any support email attached to the app.
The app had a v1.5 update yesterday and haven't been able to download any app from the marketplace since this V1.5 update. The app just quits upon tapping the download icon....it doesn't invoke the marketplace installer and it just dies taking you to the start screen.
Is this update bad? Too bad I have updated already but if you haven't don't till this problem is solved somehow if only the developer gets to know and if only I'm not the only one expieriencing it.
If anyone has a solution please help, don't know if i'm the only one with this problem.
Thanks and a happy sunday

I don't think it could be a matter of market, because before this update, I could use it without any problem...
I have the exact same issue and already contacted the dev. He says he didn't Change anything on the logic and means it could be the Website having issues. I doubt that though since I can Access it perfectly fine via IE mobile or from my notebook.
Here's the support email address as it can be found in the about page of the app : [email protected]
+1...same issue, login process is just fine but it can't connect to app scan process...!?!?
I don't like the developer answer...should dig his app a little more...hope he will fix that soon I was waiting for those new features!
The app update has brought us problems....too bad
I am in the US and having the EXACT same problem. Dev definitely needs to fix this!
Able to log in and do the app count and everything. Like the new layout. But when I pick an app and try to download it, it doesn't do anything. Just blacks out and goes back to the phone app list.
Hopefully a fix is out soon. Good thing I'm not planning on flashing any ROMs now.
Yep same problem over here!
I just downloaded it, because everybody told me that this app is great, if you are too old to remind all your purchased apps Even if in my case they are only a few..
I'm from Germany.
I'm able to log in, and it counts all the apps, but when i try to download or to show me the purchased apps etc. it unfortunately does not work anymore.. :/
But lately I remembered the name of most of the Apps..
I hope it will be fixed soon
Cheers!
Here is reinstaller v1.0 which actually works better than v1.5...what a shame...
Hope it will help...
Dev Response
All - I am the developer of this app and while I'm really sorry that some of you are running in to these problems, it seems it is not affecting everyone alike.
There are some reviews that report that the app works just fine for them even with the update.
My take is that some kind of hardware/software variation is involved in this problem (after all, it made it through certification).
I'm working on this problem and will submit another update today. However, it will still be a week before it reaches you.
Thanks for your support and sorry again for the incovenience caused.

Hi, first, thanks a lot for this app, it's a must have...
Secondly, thanks for your care, I'm so disappointed for not being able to test 1.5...and will see, today if I have enough time, if it's a matter of rom...but it would be surprising as 1.0 is just working fine...
Good luck, hope you'll find the way out of this trouble easily
Testers invited
Just fixed a few things and would like to know if you can test the XAP file for the following issues -
1. App not able to fetch app list for non-US Live IDs
2. App crashing when tapping the Install button after app scan is finished
3. App crashing when clicked on Install button on the app/games selection page
Drop me note as ashish [at] wpfied.com if you see any of the above issues along with your device, Live ID country and WP build number (if possible).
Thanks.
Thanks for that! I was having the same problem as stated. I'm so used to having an unlocked phone, with my Focus, that I tried to load the QR Xap on the Lumia 900! Can't wait for full access...

Good days folks,
I have a software called "Armor for Android" (which an antivirus) keeps dwnloading every while from unknown source!
I am attaching 3 pics to show you the problem. I even installed and run the application but still, it keeps downloading.
the application is not available in the play strore but the apk gets installed from a source which I don't know. I got the devise since one month only and I am new to android software.
please help me thankfully.
Someone on amazon put this in his review
This came with Tech Font, Clean Font, or Gothic Font for FlipFont, not sure which, but when I uninstalled them, it went away, so far. It hides itself from any application or process monitors, so I'll edit this review if it comes up again.

Seems like it acts more like malware than an antivirus. Could possibly be downloading virus database updates. But if you really wanna use an antivirus program use avast or avg not some random program you don't even know where it came from
I like to break stuff!
It doesn't even scan for viruses. the damn thing offloads work to a site owned by google (that explicitly states NOT to use for commercial purposes) and AFTER it has been scanned by the site, the program flags the files as clean and NEVER offloads the files to scan ever again. it's the most useless garbage i've ever heard of and any positive reviews are FAKE
Guys, Thank you for your replies but actually the problem not yet solved. I catched the website the file downloading from suddenly:
dl.trafficmanager.net
I tried to open this webpage but it keeps giving me server error. I am not sure if this thing would be helpful. If you have any ideas, I will be thankful if you could share it.

It looks like that's the download server. After playing around with it, I think I see what they're doing. You probably have your browser open on their download page. Every time you start your browser it downloads the install apk to your device again. I noticed it when I went back to my browser. Try closing that page or navigating away from it. The downloads should stop.
