Still having issues when ZapLoc is running in background mode and fails to get a perfect gps lock, e.g.
- In offline mode (no signal)
- Indoors (coarse location)
It seems the daemon keeps trying to get a lock for a long time (gps icon is almost constantly flashing in status bar), which quickly drains the battery.
Is there or should there be some kind of a timeout in place for when the phone fails to get a location or gets only cell location?
Anyone else having the same issue?

I still havn't solved the offline thing.
Also, I simply wait until 3 samples come in. I guess when it finds zero GPS, then there will not come in any samples. So yeah, a timeout..... sounds smart.
Can anybody help me figure out how to detect off-lined-ness from Python? I sure can't.

I'm less worried about the offline thing, since for now I can just turn off background updates, in the future command line options will make this even easier, and anyway I'm sure you'll find a solution sooner or later.
But do you think the same issue can be causing the battery loss during weak signal? This is my biggest/only concern currently with the otherwise excellent software ;)

Code:
dbus-send --system --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.mce /com/nokia/mce/request com.nokia.mce.request.get_device_mode
Edit:
Just tested it, and it returns "flight" or "normal" depending on device mode (flight === offline)

" Unexpected error: <class ´urllib2.HTTPError´> "
Anyone knows what the problem is here?
sorry for asking once again, but as you haven´t replied so far I assume you missed my post!?
Just updated to latest version and still have this urllib2 error - any idea whats wrong?
EDIT:
SOLVED by purging, reinstalling and reauthorizing to Facebook using MicroB instead of Opera Mobile. Seems like authorization does not complete correctly.

EDIT 1: I will try to remove e install ZapLoc again.
EDIT 2: Version 0.9.4-27 installed: Same error.
EDIT 3: From terminal and ZapLoc showing "Loading":
~ $ /opt/zaploc/zaploc.py
Daemon is not running - starting it

The trick is that my code is totally based around a sort of loop that enables the whole location subsystem at given intervals, which is backwards to the way it need to be if I need to listen to location changes instead... so either way it's a bit of "turning the code inside out" to make this do what I want for cell tower changes.
Not a high priority to fix, but I'm surely thinking about it.
But many thanks!!
