While it looks like the app surely collects info while it is running, if you switch to any other app or even press Home, it looks like it stops collecting data and is even sometimes killed. This prevents me from playing music or using navigation and still mapping while I drive automatically.

That's what "Map trip" is for : start the app, go to map trip, press start.

Then when you exit the app, it keeps running. You're notified by the icon in the status bar.

Exactly. The whole point of my posts was that I would like the addition of a setting that forced "map trip" to start automatically and immediately when the app was launched. This would allow me to make a profile to start the app when my phone was docked and have it constantly tracking without ANY user intervention while I drive across the country.

Ok, I understand.

Did you install the latest version ? That version should always start collecting data when you dock the phone. If not, can you please email us at contact@... so we can work this out ?

So, you should totally update that list at the beginning of the thread; I think I hit a new high score. 63,839 data points (combined) in the past 31 days. :lol:

 

Oh, and the 2.1.10B2 showing signal when tapping on the map is now working great!

Where/when/how did you get 2.1.10B2? This version doesn't show upon their web site, nor does my GS3 show an available update. :wacko:

Not sure what does that but I had a problem with a site that would show up on the free wifi at home but not on the phone. Still does it just checked www.emcu.it It must be DNS related for me cause when I set my computer to use google dns 8.8.8.8 it will then load it while tethered. Not sure how to set a dns on the phone

Not sure how to set a dns on the phone

From the Home Screen > Menu (button) > Settings > Wi-Fi > Pick the Network (access point) you want > When you go to enter password, there is an option for "Show advanced options", checkmark that option > Choose "Static" from the IP Settings dropbox > Scroll down to DNS1 and enter 8.8.8.8 .

Thanks but I want to change the DNS I use while on 3G/LTE not on wifi.

 

that's out of your control. It's on Sprints side.

Actually, you can change the DNS for all network activity. It just requires you to be rooted and that you add a few lines to the build.prop.

I uploaded a bunch of results today (12-15 hours ago), but they haven't appeared on Sensorly as quickly as they usually do. Anyone else seeing this issue?

 

I'm uploading another few thousand as I type this. Don't want them getting lost..

Alright, points I've uploaded ~24 hours ago are up, but not the ones from 12-15 (again, coincidentally) hours ago. Think it's just a huge delay.

 

Edit: now those are up

Edit2: and now my most recent set of points appeared almost immediately.

Hi,

Indeed, we weren't updating maps for a about a day and then the servers caught back up in the next couple hours. Let us know if you see anything missing.

Sensorly,

 

When ever a new tower comes online and makes a stronger signal in an area that use to have weak signal, why does the stronger signal not overtake the weaker on the map??

 

thanks!

Rickie

When we get multiple readings in the same area, we average them. So if lots and lots of readings were made in an area, it may take a little while to increase the average. We're going to improve that in 2013.

Sensorly, why did the "grey" feature go away?

 

That is, previously if you mapped wimax, it showed purple, and if wimax fell, it would map grey (for mapped, but no wimax). Now, new wimax and new LTE simply show no mapping in areas with no signal.

Yeah, that was a better way. It lets you know if someone has mapped that area or not. Instead of guessing if you could get coverage there you know that the signal was lost.

It's there but doesn't work well with CDMA voice networks. We're trying to get it to work.

If you look at GSM maps, you will see a little.

      Kind of amazing that T-Mobile is still holding onto that speed title despite Verizon all but killing off lowband 5G on their network. While Verizon is mostly being evaluated on mmWave and C-band performance, T-Mobile and AT&T's average 5G speeds include their massive lowband 5G networks that are significantly slower.

      Yup. Very true. We were originally on an Everything Data 1500 Plan, which got Unlimited Minutes thanks to Marcelo's "Loyalty Benefits" offer. We then switched to Unlimited Freedom (with the Free HD add-on that Sprint originally wanted $20/month per line for.... remember that?) because the pricing was better with "iPhone for Life", vs. the "Loyalty Credit" for staying on a Legacy Plan. After that, I ran the numbers and switched us over to Sprint MAX, especially for the international travel benefits. There's absolutely no reason for us to switch to Go5G Plus or Go5G Next if we're going to do BYOD by purchasing from Apple/Samsung/Google directly as we've been doing. These new plans aren't priced for current customers to switch to. They're priced for new customers, where they throw in a free line, etc. It's gone from "Uncarrier" to "Carrier". What a shame.

      Strange business model that they keep around all these pricing plans. 1000s of plans per carrier is reportedly not uncommon.  Training customer support must be a nightmare. Even MVNOs have legacy plans. A downside of their contract mentality I guess. Best to change contracts during a recession. But then all carriers try to squeeze out legacy plan benefits as they grow old.

      Everything "Uncarrier" is becoming "Carrier" again. Because of the Credit Limit that T-Mobile put on our account for no reason at all (and wouldn't change/update the last time I checked all the way up to the CEO), I don't plan on buying/upgrading our iPhones through T-Mobile. I'm going through Apple directly. Looks like I'll be going through Google and Samsung directly for our other lines for upgrades. Also, we're staying on Sprint Max given the ridiculous pricing for Go5G Plus. On Sprint Max, we currently pay for our Plan: $260 for 7 Voice Lines $25 for two Wearable Lines. (One is $10/Month. The other is $15/Month because the AutoPay discount only applies up to 8 lines.) Total: $285/Month vs. Go5G Plus (Per the Broadband Facts "nutrition label" on the T-Mobile Website): https://www.t-mobile.com/commerce/cell-phone-plans $360 - ($5 AutoPay Discount x 7 Voice Lines) = $325 The Watch Plans show as either $12/Month or $15/Month: https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans/affordable-data-plans/smartwatches So this is about the same for the wearables as what we're paying now. Overall, it's quite more than we're paying now to switch plans. Ridiculous....
