A bit of marketing and a few apps that support it, and you could probably get a decent number of these sold to non-jailbroken device owners (iPhone 2G and iPod touch owners who dont want to JB)Skyenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6975675032996285431.post-62721060541040922232009-04-18T12:38:00.000-07:002009-04-18T12:38:00.000-07:00@Plak: Regarding the mobile substrate trick, I hav...@Plak: Regarding the mobile substrate trick, I have been picking my brain over it trying to find what needs to be done. I suspect it to be something simple I am overlooking to get the location to update automatically... I was hoping on some more community support of developers who might know what needs to be done to get it working. Maybe you can lend a helping hand and search on some of the forums?<br /><br />Regarding other apps, I have been contacting a few app companies about implementing code to make their app compatible with the iGPS360 module. Unfortunately, I haven't gotten any responses back besides an acknowledgement of my request saying they will need to have an engineer look at it...<br /><br />One of the reasons I hope to free up some of my time by getting distributors so I can spend time on programming. Maybe I should make a serious effort in getting together a team of a few serious app developers who want to work on developing new apps for the module. They could then optionally sell them on Cydia so they will actually get something back for their hard work. Volunteers out there?GPShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12331238936838868419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6975675032996285431.post-88816228562652552792009-04-18T10:50:00.000-07:002009-04-18T10:50:00.000-07:00So, we have to forget any mobile substrate trick a...So, we have to forget any mobile substrate trick and wait when and if the xGPS is developed in an actual GPS app.The other options for our little passion will be just a dream...Plaknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6975675032996285431.post-85281901034733913032009-04-16T09:57:00.000-07:002009-04-16T09:57:00.000-07:00@Tom: Xwaves has corrected the bug now and says, "...@Tom: Xwaves has corrected the bug now and says, <I>"... the bug was actually because a lot of processing tasks have to be made at each pos. update and your GPS deliver position information incredibly fast so there was an overflow of information and thus a huge lag which can be percepted as freeze."</I> <br /><br />It might take a couple of hours for it to show up on Cydia.<br /><br />@anonymous: If a certificate warning appears when you try to access the Orange Gadgets Online Store, you can "add an exception" or click "accept" or something similar with respect to the certificate security notice. The certificate is from Globat.com who is our web-provider so it is perfectly fine to add the exception (your security is not compromised). Actual payment for your order is done on PayPal's website (either with credit card or PayPal account). We are currently in the process of getting our own certificate such that the warning will disappear in the near future. We are planning on switching over after the first production run modules are sold out.GPShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12331238936838868419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6975675032996285431.post-81120590717521222832009-04-16T06:07:00.000-07:002009-04-16T06:07:00.000-07:00The http://www.orangegadgets.com/ www site seems t...The http://www.orangegadgets.com/ www site seems to be having reported SSL problems.
