I have a weird bug. Maybe it's related to a missing font but I don't see the text inside the green boxes. For example the "Authorize" text when setting the services, or when I try to check-in to a facebook place. I only see the green buttons without anything inside.

The option to update location when cell tower changes doesn't work for me. It just activates the GPS every second (with the log message "Sleeping GPS for 0 minutes").
I wanted to take a look over the code to see what's wrong but you submitted pyo files which I don't think it's quite right for an application in free extras/testing repository (should to be open-source).

Having a curious problem at the moment. When starting the ZapLoc daemon from desktop (either via shortcut, Desktop Command Execution Widget or Queen Beecon Widget), it fails to kill the previously existing process, which means that after a few activations there are multiple daemons running.
However, running the exact same command from command line works properly and kills all the previously existing processes.
Not your problem exactly I know, but any tips/ideas?

Maybe I just need to kill it harder somehow

For reference, here's the command I'm using:
python /opt/zaploc/zaploc-daemon.py -i 60 --gps | echo "" &
(and other variations)

No I meant there is probably an issue in my code. I think that if you have started the daemon as root, my deamon run as user can't kill it. Or likely, doen't even try (the "-a" is missing in my "ps | grep" line used for the killing, methinks)

Great app, thanks.
I cover emergency and event communications so for instance if there is a charity event and help is needed I use a radio relay for support, but having a central control where they can see all support workers and their positions via Latitude comes in very handy.
Couple of questions though please. I would like to switch between other apps and leave this running in the background. I can switch by pressing ctrl-backspace on the keypad, but some other apps (particularly web browser) allow the title bar to appear by tapping the bottom right of the screen, yours doesn't. Would you plan to add that?
Also if I set the daemon to still run after the program exits, it seems to use a 'fast' GPS location which is generally the cell tower nearby. I can see the GPS fire up and shut down but it doesn't get a true lock, whereas if I leave the program running it gives an accurate lock.
Thanks again for your hard work, you are doing a great job.
