Imperial unitsystem

I’ve just added support to the next patch to select either imperial or metric unitsystem (eg. MPH or km/h, feet/miles or meters/kilometres, etc).

I really hope to get the next patch ready soon. I have some more things on the todo-list before a release will become ready to hit the market because I don’t want to update-spam the users (you).

XMLSchema validated GPX 1.1 files

Several users have reported issues when trying to import the GPX files stored by Offline Logger into third party applications. It’s probably caused by the format not being validated according to the available xmlschema, this is the highest priority in the development right now and will be fixed with the next release.

Progress on Offline Logger 0.3

Hi everyone, I just wanted to let you know that I’m actually working pretty hard on getting the 0.3 version ready as soon as possible. It’s about to become a really major update so I really want to test things through before releasing the update. It has lots of new nice features and UI improvements.

It has a few more goodies except the previous published feature list, but they will remain a secret for now :) I can just assure you that this app will soon become your favourite logger !

Offline Logger v0.2 + some battery stats

A bug was found. An embarassing one, but now it’s fixed and a new update is available on market!

The bug caused the history log-files not to be saved, which made the applications main-task to fail, but the fix was easy and now it’s working again. The reason was that the application tries to access the memory card to verify that it’s available and writable before starting a log (so you don’t log for 5 hours and then not possible to store the coordinates), but it created a file with the same name as the directory it tries to save the log-files to later, which made the directory creation to fail. A file and a directory with the same name cannot exist in the filesystem.

Many excuses to the affected people (probably <5 people since the application is new :) )

Battery statistics

I’ve been testing the application with 5seconds interval on a fully charged HTC Hero running Android 1.5. The results were pretty impressive, allthough I was running without a SIM-card and with wifi off (like airplane mode). It ran for about 12 hours, and then I turned it off manually, but it will run for an estimated 15 hours @ 5sec interval before battery is fully drained.
