qypy - alpha available
 

Hi
Qypy is a maemo application for qype service.
Qype provides reviews on many places like restaurant, bars, hotels...

Qypy is a very fresh application.
Actually, it has been tested by only some french users.
So, there are some bugs.

Some screenshots :

People might be sceptical of adding yet another repository/catalog to their devices. You'd probably see better results if you added it to extras-devel then promoted to extras-testing. At least, that's what's keeping me from installing it. Otherwise, it seems like a very cool application.

Re: qypy - alpha available
 

Ok, it's now in extras-devel.

Re: qypy - alpha available
 

It doesn't work. when I click on the near by me nothing happens and then the application stops working.

what am I doing wrong?

Re: qypy - alpha available
 

Does the gps fix ? (is the gps indicator blinking ?)
Run it in xterm :
qypyapp
Is there error messages ?
Sometime, qype.com take time to reply....

great application, I love Qype.

one issue though, does anyone else have lockups of the application after clicking on "near by me" ? The first time I invoke the program, all worked fine. After that, starting it again, and choosing the "near by me" button, I had to kill the application. The close button doesn't work. Completely stuck.

Update : Aaah, after long time I'm getting a HTTP error 504:Gateway timed out. Maybe the paid wifi hotspot I'm using here has broken the connection, requiring to logon again. That's a point of improvement for the program then, don't wait 'blindly' on an HTTP response but allow the processing of all incoming events, and maybe put something on screen saying you're making contact with the Qype server or so, so people know what's happening.

Update 2 : the wifi is still ok, so that's not the issue ... Maybe timing problems on the Qype server side ?

Another thing, I installed (by accident) from your repository. Will your rep. also be kept up to date ? Or will all your new versions go only to Extra-Devel ?

Anyway, thanks for the tool. Very usefull here in London :)

Update : It now works again, after rereading I see more people have the same bad behaviour. Maybe server issue ? GPS fix is fine, no problem there.

Re: qypy - alpha available
 

You can remove my repository from your device.
Qypy is actually in extras-testing.
Next updates will be done in maemo repositories.
I should add a waiting indicator, instead of a non responding window.

Thanks for Your feedback.

Re: qypy - alpha available
 

it works if i run the app from xterminal......thanks.

I can click on the icon as well...hmm. maybe a server issue.

would it be posible to make a copy function. To copy the address etc.
