Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
@peterleinchen - Have you checked the version which I pushed yesterday to extras-devel?
@rob_kouw - Well, depends on what "enough" is :-) I'm certainly not making a living of it, but that's okay because it is not my full time job. There are about 2 to 5 donations in the range of 0.5 to 5 Euros in the weeks after each release, and occasionally some huge amounts (like 50 Euros). And, as you may know, someone even gave his spare N900 so that I can develop for it ;-) So - all in all, I'm quite happy with it! |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Yep, just reinstalled once again. And searched for any other icon and found new icon with different (old) name. But in desktop file still the new name used. See below.
So please change either of them in next release. For now i just modified manually. Thanks. Code:

Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
I recently upgraded to the N9 version and it is very nice, thanks for your continued work!
Something that seems to be missing from it however is offline maps and local caching of tiles. Are there plans to introduce these? The caching qml does seems to be very ineffective and the constant map tile loading is eating a lot of battery not to mention losing the maps when in a location with no cell signal. Also a minor nag I have is that the currently targeted geocache marker covers quite a lot of the map. I have some high res satelite images in my tileserver but sometimes the large marker with color fill etc. tends to make it hard to see the exact spot where it is pointing (like to a corner of a building). In the N900 version all the markers disappeared when dragging the map, I guess this wasn't an intentional feature but it made it easy to "peek" behind all the markers :) |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Hi!
I have updated to the recent version of AGTL. And I have emoved the old config file. Nonetheless AGTL can't load map tiles. Any ideas how to fix that problem? Thanx in advance! Lemieux PS: My config file.... Code:

Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Which version exactly?
Extras-devel repo enabled? Run as user (not as root)? |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
I could resolve it. I had to delete all folders in the .Maps folder. Now it works fine. :)
|
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
I could use my old already downloaded map tiles ...
|
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Hi! Today I pushed out a new version of AGTL to extras-testing and extras-devel. Please vote on this page if you find the new version to be good, we really need a new version in extras.
|
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
After upgrading to the new version (0.9.1.1) on my N900 I cannot download geocache details any more. It gives the error message "_parse_logs_json() requires exactly 2 arguments (3 given)" and bails out.
I am going to file a bug report on github also. Still, this app is really great and I've had much fun using it. Thank you very much for it :) |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
I have to confirm that. :(
Going back to previous version, which was stable for me. Error occurs also after removing .agtl/config and even whole .agtl. Another error (a float is required) pops up when trying to download overview for visible area. Pressing download details for all visible caches does not do anything. But taking new way of downloading into account, this is not needed anymore at all (webhamster?).? |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
webhamster has pushed another version into extras-devel (already a few days ago) and this seems to be the one which should be in testing.
It works as it should, flawlessly (as I could check shortly). Only same question open to me: the "download all details for visible caches" does nothing. It is not needed anymore (new download behaviour) or a bug? |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Dear peterleinchen,
Some time ago I think the functionality of "download all details for visible caches" on the N900 changed to: - All caches in view that were not updated recently: check their availability on the geocaching site. If necessary: archive or disable. This is just my interpretation of what I saw happening in some cases. I must say I like it a lot. Although it would be perfect if the original function would work on top of it. Thanks for the message, I will install the new version swiftly, before placing a new geocache this morning ;) |

Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Hi!
Using the latest version of AGTL on my N900 I have problems with the position accuracy. The values vary from 30m to 130m. This is not suitable for geocaching. ;) What values do you have? Can this be a software bug or does it indicate a hardware failure? Thx! |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
I think it indicates "trees/clouds over your head" ;)
Nah seriously, my accuracy is also not the best and I have to walk a lot of times forth and back and to the sides to get an impression where it might be. (no details about accuracy in mind!) Remember it is still a phone, not a GPS receiver. And I accepted that 'flaw'. Did you consider weather? Or are you sure it was better before? I do not see any possibility AGTL is causing this. Neither I see a hardware problem (but cannot exclude)... |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Try installing GPSData to see raw info of GPS. This should clarify whether it is a AGTL problem or not.
Accuracy improves a lot with mobile internet (aGPS). I find accuracy in city better than usual GPS because of open street maps and mobile tri-angulation. Under the trees everybody has problems, also Garmin. |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
I couldn't even vote for agtl in the maemo competition. Now who compiled the list of projects to nominate?

Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
It's definitely not an issue of clouds and trees and aGPS is on. I will try GPSData to figure out....
By the way: What are your accuracy values? Just for comparison..... |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Same accuracy values with GPSData...
|
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Instantaneous values of location error range from 5 to 100+ meters on my N900. Typical values in the city 20-25 meters and more. Nonetheless I have no problems at all thanks to the OpenStreetMaps.
As said, Garmins have their problems as well. I saw people walking to and fro to find the right spot, and they claimed walking at 5 km/h helped getting more accuracy. Out in the open, with hardly any trees around. So we're doing quite well with the N900, IMO. |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Is there a way of disabling the (power consuming) GPS functions in AGTL? My GPS is broken, but maybe I could still use AGTL for paperless caching, geocaching database and online tool for anything (anything but the GPS, indeed).
(Yes I do have a Nokia N9 as well. After 2 hours of geocaching in the cold, it just gives up. No battery change possible, so that is pretty hopeless...) |

Any news about this app? I've been using it on my n9 and it is almost perfect.
It keeps asking for internet connection, doesn't keep any map info for offline use, it doesn't download any logs for any cache, and it doesn't actually refresh the cache list (I have actually tried to refresh it and it keeps telling some caches are online when they already are offline in the website). Other than that, I think it is pretty much the best geocaching application for the n9, and I've been using it extensively. Just wondering if it is still on development or just stopped, since I haven't seen any updates for quite some time. |

Dear all, it seems to me that the cachedownloader no longer works. Geocaching.com proudly announced a new geocache details page, and as far as I can see a lot of anchors changed.
Does anytime have an old html source of a details page? I'm volunteering to search for differences, and suggest changes to the code. |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Oh no!
But that was expected to happen sooner or later, or? I fear I have no site cached here, maybe ask webhamster/daniel? Will he support you? Or hopefully he may throw together an update? And if you need any help/tests/..., contact me. |
Partially working AGTL
Today, i succesfully downloaded geocaches for my rainy trip. I have PARTIALLY working agtl. It's available at http://pedro.propsychology.cz/agtl . There are some changes for my environment. I don't have Maemo, Nokia etc. I run AGTL on Neo FreeRunner and on ordinary PC with Slackware linux.
Probably it's enough do download cachedownloader.py. Because i don't have archived groudspeak web pages, it was i little bit diicult to explore the changes. The major change todays is that on list of geocaches there is no GUID. It's only at geocaches with some trackables inside.Because the print-friendly version of listing of single geocache probably requiere GUID (http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cdpf.aspx?guid=%s], it's not usable. I changed the parser for list of geocaches and, because i don't have GUID, a call function _parse_cache_page instead of _parse_cache_page_print. Download geocaches now implies downloading all details. I also changed the method for status of the cache (disabled, archived). It seems to be working. Fetching logs doesn't work. Downloading images is disabled (i don't need images). This is hardcoced (by Webhamster, i don't know why]. You can simply change "download_images = False" to "download_images = True" in cachedownloader.py. Sometimes on some geocache there is error "list index out of range". I don't know why yet. Don't use "Fetch details for visible". All details are fetched already when "Download geocaches" function is used. I'm sorry, i'm not programmer and my english is terrible, but i hope, someone (maybe Webhamster) can use ideas in my version. |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Daniel has updated the Python scripts from version 32 to 35 and it should work now. At least I got everything working by installing 0.9.1.1 version and then updating scripts from the app.
|
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Using 0.9.1.1 v.35 on N9 (MeeGo)
I have returning core.py don't answer messages round 10-15 seconds between!:confused: Anyone knows what's wrong? |

Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Completely missed N9 version, downloaded today and dowloading cache info works for me on both devices (N9 and N900).
But have problem with N900 version 0.9.1.2 -- clicking on update just hang app and cannot be killed by Ctrl+backspace (no "X") and must wait for app hangup info to appear. Also, OpenStreetMaps are not working neither on N9 nor N900 (N9 show "Error", N900 "Could not load image"). OpenCycleMaps are OK. |

Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Hi,
since about 4 weeks I have promlems with AGTL vers. 0.9.1.2 on my N900. Download Overview for the visible aera crashes by producing an error: "Error: list index out of range" why? How can I solve the problem? Thank you pterozaurus |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool
Quote:
Are you using free-account (of geocaching.com) and is it crashing every where or only if one of the caches in selected area is premium only? Can you start agtl from command line and post full error with line numbers? I can then tell you what rows you need to modify with root-access, can you do that? |
Re: [Announce] Advanced Geocaching Tool

I have problems to obtain the errorlog, agtl-maemo > agtl.txt writes only the text of the downloaded caches, not the error. I have root access on my N900 so modifying should not be a problem. Thanks pterozaurus |
