Strange as I use Google Maps for the mapping system !
If you know how to design vehicle cursors I'll be happy to add them for you.

Hi,
The app downloaded Ok, but the installation failed. I am on android 2.2 tablet with 3G dongle. I am having similar issue with 2 other traffic apps.
(Ye, I have re-flashed, unmouted / re-mounted SD card, cleared the various caches, ahve active gtalk / gmail id ..... ) and advice welcome!
Thanks.

Hi Ravrussell,
It's not working because on most of tablets Google Maps and it's API are not installed by default.
Try to install it and I'm sure it will work.
When I use Google traffic, I can select it so the traffic is enlarged and easier to see. However, if I switch to collaborative traffic + Google traffic, the traffic is normal size. Is it possible to have the enlarged Google traffic show up while using the collaborative traffic?
Thanks!
Thanks!

You're right the Google Traffic Layer can't be use with "Low Visibility" for some API limitations.
This option is only working with "Collaborative" or "Google Extended". I have a workaround but it uses too much memory at the moment so I prefer working a bit more on it before opening the feature.

Thanks, I have google maps installed, but have not yet run it since re-flash - not sure about the API. Can you tell me what to look for (I have all the default apps etc on my PC)?? (I am a complete adroid novice).

I don't have any tablet yet I only know what my users tell me so I'm sure you're an expert on tablets compared to me.
Can you tell me which tablet you have and I'll try to find the info for you?

The tablet is WITS A81G with Android 2.2 (GPS, WiFi, ....).
FYI, the first time I reflashed, I then reloaded all the apks with wierd results - it looped on the android logo for 30mins until I removed the battery ... I think I had multiple copies of some apks, so I flashed again and reinstalled the apks but omitted everything which said it was google or had _2_2 at the end of the name. This got me a working device, but I have probably omitted the critical API files.

It seems indeed, that WITS A81G with Android 2.2 can't get Google Maps and it's API.
The only solution is to try to install a custom version of Android having such version of Google Maps.
In the mean time I'm working on a version of Glob without any map (like the biker's mode does) to be compliant with any device as Google Maps is not supported by most of android device not verifying Google Prerequisites (less than 7 inch, 3G chipset, etc...)

Thanks for taking the time to research, and I look foward to the version that does not need the API. Just FYI, I have another app "gvSig MiniMaps" that seems (I emphasise SEEMS as it may be using other map resources) to tile over Google maps based on GPS location, and that has installed just file. You may get some useful hints by taking a look if you have not already. Keep up the good work!!

Hi Fiezta,
No it's not possible to use it as a navigation system but it include a very simple navigation suggestion by showing a simple route to go from your location to any point.
Go to "Menu" then "Search", type your destination and tick the box "How to go there?".
It will show a route on the map but will not update if you're leaving the route.
Anyway you can use Google Maps Navigation and leave my application in the background and you'll be warned while approaching accidents or speed traps.
The warning could be a simple popup or you can ask the application to popup. The Glob TTS plugin will allow you to be warned by a voice so you don't need to look at your phone to know what's going on.
You can also une "Notifcation shortcuts" or headset button to notify accidents or speed traps to other users. If you have a Sony LiveView you can also install te LiveView plug-in to be warned by an icon and notify using LiveView keys.
