MrRalphMan Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 (edited) Hi, Here is the next release of hdSpeedo. It has been tested on a HTC Touch HD and Diamond, but should work on any WM device with a GPS feed. New Features Journey stats saved in /My Documents/hdSpeedo Tidied up the /My Documents/hdSpeedo folder. Error logging to file Display of Max speed. This swaps every 15 secs with the AVG speed Planned Features Looking at making the application skinnable Bug Tracking None noted at the moment Please see attached file for full version history. There are two buttons on the speedo page, one will log your current position, the other will start logging your track. These write to KML files which you can load into Google Earth as below. Please bear in mind that I have written this for my own use and am quite happy to put this out for others to use. I will take on board suggestions, but will continue to develop this at my own pace. Many Thanks, Paul Ryder.hdSpeedo v0.62.zipSpeedCams.ziphdSpeedo v0.71.zipChange History.ziphdSpeedo Install v0.73.zip Edited May 3, 2010 by Lbm New version out (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imi Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 looks good, will give this a try over the weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRalphMan Posted September 23, 2009 Author Share Posted September 23, 2009 Excellent, just let me know if there are any issues or any features you'd like me to add. Another forum have asked for a Max Speed warning, but not sure if that's wise with Soops.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 In stead of max speed warning, perhaps could change the colour of numerals, one colour up to 30 another to 40 another to 50 etc , red after 70. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRalphMan Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 Maybe, as long as I can turn it off.... oh hang on... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRalphMan Posted September 27, 2009 Author Share Posted September 27, 2009 First change. Removed one of the fonts as it was making other apps unusable, thanks MS.. Also changed the name as GPS_Speedo isn't unique by any means. Remove previous version if installed. Unzip the cab file, copy to device and kick off install with file manager. Cheers, Paul.

Todd Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 Oh new toy to play with, downloading now then off for a scoot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 Wouldn't auto rotate on my topaz but may be down to custom rom. Like the way it cycles through mph/kph/knots and so on when taping on speedo. Must soak the power up, got home and connected it to PC and got a warning message about power consumption, never seen that before on! All in, cracking wee app and look forward to the updates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 I don't get it, is this for a mobile phone? How does that work then I didn't know you could copy programs from a PC to a phone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 This might sound like a moronic question, but would it work on an android phone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRalphMan Posted September 27, 2009 Author Share Posted September 27, 2009 It's for a Windows Mobile based phone or PDA. As for the power I run this for approx an hour in/out of work and it soaks up the same % that TomTom uses, I think I'll have to look at cutting the CPU cycles.

MrRalphMan Posted October 8, 2009 Author Share Posted October 8, 2009 Guys, New version up. Main change is that it will now allow you to log your current position or journey, please see image in first post. Many Thanks Paul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRalphMan Posted November 22, 2009 Author Share Posted November 22, 2009 Ok a new version is now up. New features and fixes. New Position page. Ability to flip screen to use as a HUD. Installed Font should no longer get used as default by other programs. Negative Lat/Lon positions were being changed to positives, fixed. Not 100% happy with the new font, but at least it's not being used by other programs, well the few that I have installed and have tested don't. Cheers, Paul.

MrRalphMan Posted November 27, 2009 Author Share Posted November 27, 2009 Right, well I am overwhelmed with the responses to this new release.. Hopefully either this weekend or early next week I can release the next version with Speed Camera... er I mean POI warnings. BTW, is there anything else you would like to see in it? Journey logging etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Geocaching with the ability to export a .kml file and show thumbnails of any photos taken on route on a small overview of the route taken. Basically Nokia Sport tracker for Windows Mobile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRalphMan Posted November 27, 2009 Author Share Posted November 27, 2009 I'll have to look at the NST, but it already exports KML files. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbryant_knight Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 I was after a GPS speedo for ages. I know that some Speed camera detectors had them on with red or green LED numbers but i couldn't find any. I ended up buying a Heads Up Display for about £140.

michael Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Installed on my Omnia, seems to work OK, runs, rotates, displays fine - just one potential bug I've found in initial indoors testing with no GPS lock... If I change the colours the night "btn TXT" seems to change the Day option as well - changing the "btn TXT" under the Day side doesn't seem to do anything.

MrRalphMan Posted December 3, 2009 Author Share Posted December 3, 2009 Good news.. I have the Speed Camera alerts working. Bad New.. My phone is knackered and being repaired so I cannot test at the mo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRalphMan Posted January 6, 2010 Author Share Posted January 6, 2010 Ok, Speed camera alerting is now out. Attached are the new install and a list of speed cams to use. These are in Garmin CSV file format, (lng/lat/info). My app only uses the first two fields, so if you create your own files, please put anything into the third field. Also if you get a incoming call, the app will minimise while it is active. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrRalphMan Posted May 3, 2010 Author Share Posted May 3, 2010 Latest version is out. A few behind the scenes changes to try to make it less of a resource hog. Added Journey logging and MAX speed logging. The Max speed will display on the main window and swaps with the current AVE speed every 15 seconds. ** Note ** I have tidied up the /My Documents/hdSpeedo folder. I have added two additional folders. warnings - This is where the CSV files go for the speedcam warnings. mapoutput - This is where the KML log files go The Warning .wav file, the Settings XML file and the Journey stats .csv file remain in the root of this folder. The Database folder remains as it is and contains the SQL CE database that holds the loaded speed camera locations. Please let me know what you think of this application. Cheers, Paul.
