HI.
CommMgrPro is and one year old Hermes project. CommMgrPro is:
1) Automatic profile tool based on Location (GSM cell) and schedules.
2) Battery and Current draw monitory tool.
3) Communication manager.
4) -> It allow to upload cell changes to the server and if you have GPS It can take the coordenates so you can track your movements on the server using Google Maps. Apart of this we are creating automatically a big database matching CELL - OPERATOR - GPS coords.
So.....We are giving for free licenses to people interested on the project and interested on increasing the database. Simply install the program, use it to upload cells and if you ve uploaded cells you will get a free license. More info in www.commmgrpro.com
Thanks
It is interesting. However, I am concern about the privacy. Does the program upload ANYTHING else other than the Cells information?
How do you protect the information which user sends to your server? Can we delete the data completely off from your server?
EDIT:
I just checked your website and seems you allow user to login and check the cell info. However, the login and registration pages are not using SSL.
yes, thats truth.
User can choose which fields to be uploaded to the server (8 possible fields). But you can change the URL to test by yourself the data. At least users should upload Location (Cell/Lac), Phone operator, GPS coords and (owner_name and/or Device ID to identify the user who uploaded the data. Well, you can disable owner name and Device ID (imei) but we wont know who is upload that data). There are two main tables.
1) Cell-operator-gps. Thats the interesting table for CMP. No user data.
2) Location changes. Interesting for user to track movements on google maps. Data's rows are deleted each 72 hours but can be removed more frequently if users wants.
NO Https. Yes, we thought data was critial but We will put an special HTTPS port...

very interesting application Daniel!!
btw i have a question for you: is it possible to upload before a list of cells with also other informations included (like address, owner, power, or other) to display on screen once the bts is locked?
thanks
ciao

Well, currently It lets you upload 8 fields but I can more info if needed. This project is alive and I post new releases every two or three weeks.....

licenses
Are licenses still be given out for free? I already have a paid licence for bandswitch.
How does this compete with Navizon?
competition
Here's the differences. navizon uses a trial period program that supposedly gives you cash back for usage but the kicker is when the trial expires. CommMgrPro usage gets you a free license to the program itself since the database needs to be updated which is similar to navizon. What you're getting out of it is the difference.

Hello, since most of us have a new found GPS, I would like to use those programs that allows you people to go to a certain website to see where you are, and find friends that are close by, etc. This is specially useful to use it with family and friends or kids, when we want to know where are they located.
so far I have found out 2 programs, (FREE)
-Mologogo. http://www.mologogo.com/
-Livecontacts. http://www.livecontacts.com/
I was wondering if anybody found any others besides of these programs, because both seems to be very buggy and/or not so accurate. (mologogo showed like I was somewhere in the Atlantic ocean close to Nigeria!!!!)
Anybody had successful results with these?. Are there any other programs that anybody uses, free or paid?
Hi.
Next version of commmgrpro will include the posibility to send to CMP server Cell ID, operator and GPS coordenates (if available). In this way, with some weeks/months, the server will host a map of Cells (and operator) and GPS position in the world. So when the map is big then It wont be necessary to connect the gps. It will be enought to turn on the device. Then It will send the current Cell/Lac to the server and the server will convert it to geographical position. Then I will add buddy support, etc, etc and of course, posibility to see it using a web browser and google maps.

Try this, its works well...http://geocool.reperion.com/Web/Msgs/default.aspx?MessageID=24
Hi Guys,
I have been reading this forum for a while now and just made me member.
I was wondering why there no GPS tracking systems which can upload the GPS data to your own server. Just a very simple tool which is uploading the coordinates every X seconds to a SERVER OF FREE will
WHo can help on this?
Thanks very much

Wow, don't like to search it seems, since is right there on the first page.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=340667
That was one of the first version of the tracking software. If you download it the option has been removed. Seems to get more commercial.
So it looks like it but you have to use the server of the developer!!!
So my question still stands
Erm no, you can use your own server with it. Im just about to set it up on mine now
HOW TO USE YOUR OWN SERVER
By default, you can use TrackMe with my server free of charge. TrackMe is already configured
to use this server. However, if you want to use your own server, jcleek wrote an installation package for TrackMe.
Download Installation Package (Thanks jcleek)

His wooden shoes must be too tight.
I would like to use the GPS on my phone to map my position on a static map or a jpeg. I don't want to use the web at all, I want to store my maps in static images and pull up the appropriate map and be able to find my position on that map
Does anyone know if this is possible and how it would be done?
Thanks.
TW,
BeeLineGPS
I realize you want to be able to import maps, something you cannot do with BeeLineGPS (http://www.visualgps.net/BeeLineGPS/BeeLineGPS), but I'd still strongly recommend the program. It does not do anything over the Internet but it does do just about everything one could do with GPS data. As far as getting some kind of reference of where things are on a blank map, you can import waypoints or mark them on your phone and you can export the movement you've tracked into KML (Google Earth).
From their website: "BeeLineGPS is a high performance Pocket PC cache navigation and management software tool. Import GPX files and manage thousands of waypoints with the advanced Waypoint Manger. View, manage and hunt geocaches with ease and confidence while having fun, a perfect paperless solution. BeeLineGPS also includes active waypoint technology where a waypoint can trigger a warning window for speed traps, safety cameras or play a sound byte while on a guided tour. Other features include waypoint averaging, altitude profiling and a comprehensive trip computer. BeeLineGPS is the ultimate GPS tool for your geocaching and outdoor needs. BeeLineGPS waypoint database can support thousands of waypoints with over 120 icons to depict specific locations."
It's 30 day shareware that eventually turns into nagware but you may find it's worth the $30. Here's the cab: http://www.visualgps.net/BeeLineGPS/BeeLineGPSInstall.CAB
I have not used this at all, haven't even installed it yet, but you might want to look at MyMotion
Very interesting, thanks guys.
I think MyMotion is the closest I've seen yet. I don't really care about tracking where I've been - does anyone know of any open source similar to MyMotion?

I think you should take a look at GPStuner. It does a lot of things
- Maps can be downloaded from the phone, or from a computer and stored on memory card. (i currently have 50 JPG covering 200 sq km)
- It records your track, gives information about your current speed, altitude, average speed...
- You set up points aywhere on the map and it will lead you to them, or search nearby points. I use it for things that do not come on Tomtom, like bus stops, libraries or free WiFi hotspots
- You can save your track and open it on Google Earth
Another similar software is tracky, but I like GPSTuner more
chinomoreno, it's not polite to hi-jack a thread... start another with your question.
You can also use LEM's TrackMe, using it off-line it will store your data on your device until you decide to upload it (by example when connected with Wifi or ActiveSync). It also stores .kml files you can use in Google Earth.
We've kind of moved off topic to tracking software as opposed to being able to find a point on a static map or image... is it really that difficult to do???
TW,
Desktop app exportable to kaiser
I use Memorymap on my desktop and it can be fully exported to pda. Incorporates standard maps and arial photographic images which you can flip between:

PathAway, but it's way more than what you're asking for. You can create a map, calibrate it, then upload it. You can do large maps, small maps, etc.. And you can pull in topo or sat maps in on the fly over the data connection too if you don't happen to have a map already made.
Hello, is there a coocked ROM which include an anti theft tool ? or a way to add it easily because of course it needs a personnal configuration file...
thanks
Antiteft
Hi,
I played with Antiteft software a few times.
Problem is I think, if you cook it in the personal setting should be cooked in as well other wise you lose your settings after a hardreset.
These ones I tried:
Remote tracker, made by Joubervasc:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=394203
Also Sprite Terminator commercial:
http://www.spritesoftware.com/
This one I didn't try yet but looks good:
JRTRemote - J2ME Remote Tracker Client App, made by Alt236
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=462597
Is it complicated to add a config file to a cooked ROM?
for the moment I use IIWPO (the cab it's easy to customize) associated to UC compliant ROM...it's better than nothing while waiting a real solution from xda monsters
I think you misunderstand, a personal config is complicated to add.
Personal password/settings, it's different for every person.

a possibility: sending IMEI to a central server, where individual users with individual passwords could access the information....
One could also save on the SIM an encrypted IMEI. if it doesn't match the one of the telephone or it is absent - then the telephone could send its GPS position to the server and inform the registered user.
....unfortunately, everything relies on a server --> service...

that's a good idea because it won't need any personnal settings to be cooked inside the ROM but as you said we need a common server to be setup... but the best is surely to send info via SMS I think and then it needs a phone number to be setup...

in fact the IIWPO cab it's customizable with personal owner info before installed into device so, when added to SDconfig.txt list, after a hard reset it's immediately operative
After enrolling my Lumia 920 to the corporate Exchange email, new MDM (mobile device management) policies are applied to my phone. It's OK but company administrator(s) set the unlock password (pin) expiration time too short. Every damn month I should choose and remember a new pin... And I can not use the old pins (or I don't know what is the time for "clearing" my old passwords).
Do you know/could you suggest any tricks/hacks to get around this situation? I want to reuse my old pins.
Hey Dude,
I don't think that you can do anything. And this is not the correct thread for such questions.
In the MS World the recommended value for reusing old passwords is 24 so after 2 years
(if 4 weeks was choosen) you can use the first one again.
Why do you think it's an incorrect forum? This forum is about "hacking", and I need a hack. It's definitely not a "Q&A" or "General" forums question...
Hmmm this WOULD fall under the Q&A because it is technically asking a how-to although it involves hacking. Typically the threads under the Development and Hacking are threads that start projects with the hopes of hacking instead of asking how to. With that said, I'll move that over there for now and if there is some development that comes out of this, it can be renamed and moved back to Development and Hacking.
If you have a registry editor, it's pretty easy to tweak those settings. Unfortunately, you're on a Lumia so right now that's not possible (we're working on it!)
The only other option I can think of right now is to try intercepting the communication between the phone and the corporate server. Exchange ActiveSync uses HTTPS, so any standard HTTPS proxy (like Fiddler or Burp Suite) should work. You may need to set the proxy to use a client certificate (if one was provided for your phone), and you definitely need to install the proxy's certificate on the phone (so the phone trusts it to spoof the corporate server). Anyhow, once you have interception set up, it should be pretty easy to modify the policy rules that get pushed down.
In either case, though, the changes will only last until the next time the phone checks its policy rules. I don't know how often that happens - it *might* even be only at initial enrollment, in which case if you un-enroll and then re-enroll you should be fine - but it could be a problem.
GoodDayToDie, thanks for reply. Could you remind me: is it possible to just read values from registry on the Lumia handsets? At least I want to know value of the DevicePasswordHistory settings (according to this article).
[UPDATE] I installed Fiddler's root certificate on the phone, and able to catch & decode https traffic; however there is nothing about provisioning xml in the content, account synchronization produces 3 https requests, first response is a short binary data, second contains an email body (or header) etc. , no xml at all. Looks like MDM policies are applied only on service discovery (I should google for that). Will try to remove this Exchange account and add it again. By the way, I'm not very familiar with the Fiddler: can I change https XML response on the fly?
