When I open Virtual Earth Mobile i get the following error:

"An unexpected error has occurred in VirtualEarthMObile.exe.

Select Quit and then restart this program, or select Details for more information."

If I select details, it says:

"VirtualEarthMobile.exe

Exception

Application::Run+0xf

FormPocketEarth::Main_0xa"

I am running this on my samsung i730.

Thanks

This tool is awesome. But it always starts at Redmond. Looking at the source the initial coordinates are hard-coded. Probably the most immediate feature that is needed is to set a "startup" location which would involve only setting/storing two numbers (lat/long).

The license appears to allow modification so maybe at least for myself I can recompile with my coords (I've never written C# or anything for Mobile -- I do Java and C++). Also the MUI hires hack works very well with VEM except for the option dialogs. It would be nice to have native support. If I knew how to code these things I'd offer a fix myself.

Speaking of the GPS access: "(The GPS classes ship as sample code in the Windows Mobile SDK; they’re not in ROM)" - I understand here that you are referring to the managed bits (and I have found the sample), but where is gpsapi.dll? I cannot locate that DLL on my device (Qtek 9100) nor on any WM5 emulator.

It is my current understanding that a GPS receiver has to expressly support the GPSID for a WM5 device to be able to manage access to a GPS receiver (i.e. the WM5 GPS control panel applet will not be able to 'manage' a generic BT GPS receiver) - is my understading correct? ...which would explain why the GPS functionality in VEM appears not to work for my device/GPS receiver combination. Correct?

Thanks..and great post on VEM. I would be great if you guys (WM team) would blog abit about GPS / GPS control panel applet in WM5. :)

Hello,
Great software..
I have the hp ipaq 6516 messenger phone with pocket pc 2003 with a square screen (240x240) device. Is it possible to fix the virtual earth mobile to work with that square screen.
When can you add the GPS support for the pocket pc 2003 and can you add direction help with the GPS. The virtual earth software + GPS will guide the user to a given address.

Thank you,
Vlad.

windowsmobile — Fri, 06 Jan 2006 01:43:13 GMT

To respond to a few questions posted here:

1. Gpsapi.dll should be in the \Windows directory of any Windows Mobile 5.0 device. gpsapi.lib is in the SDK.

2. "It is my current understanding that a GPS receiver has to expressly support the GPSID for a WM5 device to be able to manage access to a GPS receiver (i.e. the WM5 GPS control panel applet will not be able to 'manage' a generic BT GPS receiver)" This is _not_ true. GPSID can talk to any GPS device on a COM port (which they all are). It should work with any Bluetooth GPS receiver. The catch is that Smartphone did not ship with a GPS control panel, and the control panel is what configures the API. For example, it tells the API what COM port the GPS is on. We have a control panel we hope to release soon as a power toy.

3. There is no direct way to save a map to your PPC. For what it's worth, the cached map tiles are stored under \Application Data\Virtual Earth Mobile.

Mitchell — Tue, 21 Feb 2006 00:13:14 GMT

I figured I might as well ask here, since although I've been looking around, I have yet to find an answer that works.

I have the Pharos GPS-360 (the one that ships with MS S&T 2005) with a Bluetooth dock so that I can use it with my WM5 PocketPC device. I have the following settings:

Pharos iGPS-BT (COM8)
Incoming Port (COM6)

I can get it to work just fine with Pocket Streets on COM8... but I can't for the life of me figure out how to configure the WM5 GPS control panel applet so that I can use the GPS with Virtual Earth Mobile. Any suggestions?

I've tried all the combinations with the following:

Programs: COM6/COM8/GPD6/GPD8
Hardware: COM6/COM8
Baud rate: 4800

Thanks!

re: Virtual Earth Mobile

Paul — Tue, 28 Feb 2006 01:53:21 GMT

I'm having the same problem as Mitchell. I have the Pharos GPS-360 w/ Bluetooth dock and can't get it to work with the WM5 GPS control panel and Virtual Earth Mobile.

I have Mapopolis and Pocket Streets & Trips working with the GPS receiver, but they don't use the GPS control panel. They use the COM ports I set up in the Bluetooth COM port setup. I'm using COM6 for incoming and COM7 (4800 baud )for outgoing in the Bluetooth COM port setup.

I've tried every combination of COM6 and COM7 in the GPS control panel with no luck. Can anyone help?

Thanks

re: Virtual Earth Mobile

Paul — Tue, 28 Feb 2006 02:45:25 GMT

A couple more questions...

In the Bluetooth COM port setup, the COM ports are referred to as "incoming" and "outgoing".

In the WM5 GPS Control Panel, they're referred to as "program" and "hardware".

How do they relate? Is the "incoming" port the "program" or the "hardware" port?

Do I need to set up different ports than the "incoming" and "outgoing" ports for the "program" and "hardware" ports?

Thanks

The driving directions and turn to turn map, totally handy.

However, I am from Malaysia and I really hope that i will be able to fully use this software. Is there any way that Malaysia/India/China map will be incorporated into this software?

THanks,

re: Virtual Earth Mobile

Thomas — Thu, 06 Apr 2006 00:53:24 GMT

On many Windows Mobile 5.0 devices the GPS control panel function is missing. To get access to the GPS control panel, you have to edit the registry. HKLM\ControlPanel\GPS settings. Delete any "Redirect" values, and add new DWORD value name: "Hide" value:"0" and name: "Group" value:"2".

When you setup a bluetooth device, add an outgoing port and assign a com number.
In GPS control panel the GPS hardware port should be set to the com port you chose during BT setup. The GPS program port is the port used by the applications.

OziPhotoTool takes the digital photos with EXIF metatdata, and tracks that have been downloaded to OziExplorer to determine where the GPS was when the photo was taken. As long as the GPS was in the same location as the camera this represents the location of the photo.

Does JavaScript work on Windows Mobile 5.0? An HP tech told me it was released in November 2005, but later you talk about Windows Mobile 5.0 APIs. So I do not know if you are saying that JavaScript does not work on Windows Mobile 5.

I am on Windows CE 4.21 where JavaScript does not work.

Wonderfull tool!! (I also use ArcPad, GPS Tuner, PocketEarth, VitoNavigarorII, VisualGPSce, LocBrowser, PocketNavigator)

I easily got it to work with my Holux Bluetooth GPS. I moved the install files to my SD card, so the software link to the help file is broken. It would be nice to have + and - icons side by side instead of the separatly located Zoom Out and Zoom In menu items. Moving (dragging) the map by hand would also be nice.) Got the driving directions done too. Wonder if I go out now, if all the necessary maps have been properly stored on my unit...

B. Graham — Fri, 04 Aug 2006 08:46:18 GMT

Brilliant software. It made me grin like a little boy again (and I cut my first code in 1968). I bought Pocket Streets a while back (as part of AutoRoute 2006) and VEM is what Pocket Streets should have been.

Now that Gigabyte storage cards are cheaply available, I wonder if an extra level of large cache on the storage card would be useful, so that you could always return to a previously visited place when away from the internet? (It may need an extra level of cache in RAM for performance?).

BTW, BT GPS worked great, in fact everything I tried worked on my iPAQ hx2190, except for find address/business, which I guess is for the US only at this stage.

Good luck!

I love the software, and I am running it with a Pharos GPS and Cingular 2125. I have one suggestion - can we have the GPS location update in real time, or once every 5 seconds? It would be a great effect to trace current location without having to click the button continuously.

re: Virtual Earth Mobile

Mike Botts — Fri, 25 Aug 2006 00:05:50 GMT

Super app guys.

I, like several others, have had trouble connecting BlueTooth GPS to the VEM (I'm on a T-Mobile MDA with an EarthMate BlueTooth BlueLogger GPS). Using Delorme Street Atlas 2007, I have successfully connected to the GPS, but am having trouble with VEM (I actually prefer to explore the world around me with VEM rather than Street Atlas, so I'm very interested in getting the GPS to work).

I did go into the Mobile5:settings/GPS and set up a hardware port of COM6 (which is the port I set up for the Bluetooth GPS) and a software port of COM7, and have the automatic configure checkbox checked.

In Street Atlas, I'm using COM6 for the GPS and it works find ... however, I did also try setting it to COM7 and it worked but not as consistantly. Either way, VEM always quickly pops up an error box ...

.... WHOA, WAIT, never mind ... it just worked. Let me see if I can make sense out of this ... VEM seems to like it when Street Atlas is already running. I noticed earlier that without Street Atlas connecting to the GPS, the GPS indicates that there is no BlueTooth connection (blue light blinks). When I start up Street Atlas, the GPS shows BlueTooth connection (blue light solid).

Sooo ... perhaps when VEM looks for the GPS, it needs to first somehow initiate the BlueTooth connection for the GPS before it decides that the GPS isn't there (???). Any thoughts?

Thanks. Again, great product.

On regard of the problem that I had with VEM:

"When I open Virtual Earth Mobile i get the following error:

Select Quit and then restart this program, or select Details for more information."

If I select details, it says:

"VirtualEarthMobile.exe

Exception

I was able to fix it, following these steps:

1- Uninstall VEM
2- Delete the install directory (if still exits after uninstallation)
3- Delete the follwing directory: "\Application Data\VirtualEarthMobile"
4- Reinstall VEM and run it
5- That's all that you need to do and now it should work fine (it worked for me).

Could you please add a "Follow me" function.

A current location cross hair would be required to pan the current display, so as to not require frequent map data. In other words the cross hair (cursor) could move within a bound region on the display without any map data download until the location would move outside of that boundary. The boundary could occupy about 80% of the total display area, before a map scroll and subsequent map data download would be required. I would also like a 1 line display of the current longitude and latitude at the bottom of the display.

Intrinsic cache limit of 60MB?

Chris N — Tue, 22 May 2007 15:39:05 GMT

Nicola, if you set the cache size large enough, and set it to be on your storage card VEM will use the previously stored maps.

However I have a problem related to that: I have plenty of space on my storage card, the size on my cache set large enough,but VEM crashes when trying to download new maps. Creating a new data directory fixes this but means I have to swop back and forth to access stored maps.

Does anyone know if there is an inbuilt limit of 60MB in the cache? My limit is set at just under 99MB so it is unlikely that that is the problem. The problem noted by others

is possibly related to cache size settings too.

Thanks.
