My wife is traveling and I wish to be able to locate her. She's gotten lost twice already and she's traveling for SEVERAL hours from Indian to Minnesota.
She has an AT&T Epix with GPS integrated.
Is there software that I can install on my AT&T Tilt that will allow me to locate her? Her GPS is working, but the Google Maps is a little hard for her to track.
Thanks for your help.
have you tried altenative..
have you tried an alternative or checked this out ,( if so, ignore my suggestions.) as a backup ,if you cannot find what you are looking for ?
the name is the same as your heading..."GPS LOACATION..BY HIGHWAY "
of xda ,found under development and hacking, or try link...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=549517
example ..your wife could send you sms /email with link , which is just case of selecting, email or sms option on the software tab,
when you receive email , click on relevant link ,and you can see her position on google..? ( you dont have to do no tracking ? it pinpoints you with , street name and no ..)
i find this "gps location application ", very handy (works perfect on my hd )
hope this helps
Google maps with Latitude ?
gpsed
Try gpsed, http://gpsed.com/downloads. Free version allows tracking in as little as 1 minute incrememts. Installs on her phone, she activates and you follow along on any web browser. Works well.
Thanks for the reply. I don't know what happened. I've got my notifications set to INSTANT notifications and I didn't know anyone replied.
Well, she's traveling now and we don't have the option of installing the program. We have AT&T Navigator on her phone, and it's SUPPOSED to be able to SHARE the location, but the AT&T reps who PUSHED this product on us HAVE NO CLUE as to how to make it happen. And tech support hasn't returned my call.
I also want to install a program on my son's phone so that I can track his whereabouts WITHOUT his knowledge as well.
I thought there were programs out there that would allow that.
gpstoday.. www.geoterrestrial.com .. awsome app and will tell you down to the address of where she is.. and you can see her on a map all for free.. you will need to have internet access on the phone though..

Thanks Chris. I'll take a look at it now. My wife and I both have data plans. Is there something to install on EACH phone, or just MY phone since I'm wanting to track her?
Thanks for your help.
Havent been able to find anything related to the G1 for this and am wondering if some one has or has any work around ideas. This app was one of the working apks that we were able to use off the sprint hero dump from last month but now they have put out an upgrade file to download, once u download this upgrade from the prompt in the app it will install then telll u this is for sprint customers only
So u can uninstall then reinstall the original apk and still have the widget work but anytime u try to launch the Nfl mobile it will require the "updgrade".
Really stinks, was a great app to use, hoping some one has some skills to figure this one out!
i had the same problem before cause i had the sprint updater app installed but, without the updater installed it gave the the update speech again... it was good while it lasted...
you might be able to edit the build.prop so that the phone recognizes as a sprint device.... I am not really too sure though.
This should be moved to the applications forum....Also, the sprint apps, I believe are considered warez, and therefore you probably won't be able to find them on these forums.
Try editing the build.prop and faking the carrier (getprop & setprop)
awesome maxisma thanks for the suggestion! Im going to do some research on how to execute that and give it a try. ill let yea know how it goes Reg442
I didnt get any prompt for that upgrade?
...it works on g1/dream. I am not sure it is 100% functional but it does what i need it for, i use it every sunday...
if its still working for you it wont for much longer. The new version doesnt work and the old version forces you to upgrade. The original apk needs to be edited to not force the update. I dont believe this belongs in the app section since it requires development to get this app working again

I did this, then went back tot he original apk and every weekend it works for me or when a game is on. At least getting all the scores of the game works that's all I really used it for anyways.
Ya I used this app for awhile. I know that it was fully working on rogers roms, but the nfl network live stream and vids dissappered when using a hero rom (well sense hero by cc). I used the build.prop from eno rogers w/cc's sense hero and nfl network part started working again. Then I got the dreaded update. I assumed something can be edited in the build.prop, but haven't tried yet.
Might want to start by replacing ur current build.prop with the one from sprint hero dump, but be ready for fc's. Also going to have to have wifi as it is cdma and u won't have a radio signal, but its a good starting point...
Anyone have any luck on this? ** BUMP **
I figured this one out long ago: edit the build.prop. This worked for the videos and everything else before the update, but the update checks for something else outside of the build.prop now. I suppose it wouldn't be that difficult to disable the updating part; I'll try to take a look at it again this weekend (possibly tomorrow) but no promises on how quickly I'll solve the problem as I have exams next week.
I already have it dissected, so it'd just a matter of finding what either:
A) the new app is checking for to validate that you're a sprint customer
or
B) disabling the updating part in the older app (but this might not be part of the app, as it could easily be part of the webpage, making this option a lot less viable)
Too bad...
This NFL app was very good. I was disappointed when the upgrade came but figured something would be done eventually to take that away from us. There are some other great apps out there and I would imagine they will only get better. This Monday night I was in the car for four hours on a business trip and used SportsTap to keep tabs on my Patriots and it was a fairly good experience. Also, the NBA has started putting out some of its own apps that are pretty good, so I can't imagine it taking much longer to get an NFL app in the market that will be as good if not better on all Android devices.
Hey rockdevourer, got an update on this at all?

Sorry, didn't recheck this thread. But as of now, I DO have an update
So here's been my work from the past few weeks (al beit, not much lol):
I figured out several different possible methods to either disable the update check in the original APK and also a different method to disable the check for the sprint customer check. For some reason, the NFL_prod (newest version of it as far as I know) is looking for some Sprint file that doesn't exist on the G1 (obviously) and it seems that it uses a boolean to check it so that's a cake walk.
Here was my problem of not being able to do anything about it: I couldn't install either of the APKs due to not having the original key. But a few minutes ago, I found the stupid key. They left it in the APKs for my viewing pleasure apparently
Soooo, long story short, I pretty much figured it out. I haven't recompiled the APKs with the new keys yet because I probably have to redo all of my modifications on both of the APKs and test which ones work. Sorry about not updating, life has been hectic. Expect another update here soon (probably not tonight because I'm going to go watch the Colts game at a local restaurant)
Feel free to follow me on Twitter as well, that way it's easier to give updates and let you know when my work is completed.
http://www.twitter.com/rockdevourer
Edit: it appears the Sprint TV app thing has the key in it as well, but I haven't touched that one yet and dunno if I will. Maybe if there's a lot of people wanting it I suppose I could take a look at it. The security measures in these programs are God-awful.

Sweet success! Working out a few last bugs then it shall be ready
The only two bugs that I'm aware of at the moment include:
A) Widget doesn't work at the moment (this is definitely not a high priority on my list)
and
B) NFL Network doesn't show the video part yet, but audio is functional. The featured videos, etc, all work properly with the video and audio; it's just the NFL Network Live part isn't fully functional yet. This should be fairly easy to fix, as I have done this before.
Just wanted to post an update real quick Back to squashing B first and then A if it's not too time consuming. This project has been a real nightmare, but oh-so worth it!
Edit: Forgot to add, the NFL Network is fully functional on the Droid according to a tester, many thanks to aimbriano!
Has anyone used this app. I have used it for a few days and it is alright. It works good when I go shopping with my wife. You just open the app and click the store your in and scan the items it tells you for points. You are supposed to be able to cash points in for gift cards and what not. I have a referral code that gets your 50 points to start. Pm if you want it. I don't know if am able to post it to everyone.

Been using is for awhile now, there are some bugs here and there, and when you switch roms, make sure you are logged in again when using it.
Otherwise the main annoying thing, it is pretty darn difficult to "walk-in" to a store with captivates craptastic gps, either that or their entry points are way off. I have only successfully walked into 2 stores, and can't even repeat that success at the same stores.
Shopkick Walk-ins
I just started using shopkick. Did some research on how it works, the walk-ins use an audio sound from what I've read. It's frequency that's above our ability to hear.
Shopkick
Also, if you're interested, I have links to the bar codes of many of the items to scan. I use Location Spoofer to set my location close to store location so I can scan the bar codes off my computer screen.
gps 100% better on newer models
I got a captivate back in september and recently I hard bricked it. So Iwent to the store and they gave me a new one for free under warrenty (they couldn't even turn it on and apparently the power back on was a known issue for the model I had, even for now rooted users). Well long story short, even before I did the kies mini update to froyo I noticed the GPS was spot on, really fast before and after update. I think the older ones suffer from hardware issue more than a software issue.

For a week? HA! That's awesome, you can use it only when you're on a trip

I'am interested in comments too. I'm using version 8 and happy with that version until now.
I've bought the european premium version yesterday for my HD2 and Galaxy Tab.
As far as I can say already, it is working absolutly brilliant on my HD2, but on GT I have some graphical issues, mostly caused by the 7" resolution.
I haven't had much chance to test the navigation itself but as far I haven't seen any issue beside some missing german translations with HD2 and CoPilot Live 9.
Upgraded from v8 to v9 Premium and glad that I did
When CoPilot v9 was first released, I refused to buy. Because there was no way to transfer my ActiveTraffic subscription and the reviews on Android Market were looking pretty dismal. But ALK came up with an easy way to transfer ActiveTraffic subscription within v9. And I did see some favorable reviews over time, although it seemed most reviewers did not like it.
So I took the leap and purchased CoPilot Live USA Premium (v9 premium). I've used CoPilot Live v8 on WM on my HD2, moved over to CoPilot Live v8 on Android when I switched to running Android late last year. Now that I have v9 Premium myself. I am glad I didn't listen to the nay sayers. The bottom line is this, if you LIKE Copilot v8, you'll likely enjoy v9. And don't get the Standard version unless you want to be limited on features. The Premium version is an upgrade. But if you go from v8 to v9 Standard, you're really going to be taking a downgrade. Because the Standard version does not come with features such as 3D Maps and Text to Speech. V9 has everything built in with the only exception being that you have to transfer or buy an ActiveTraffic subscription, and it also does not come with gas prices. (Gas prices cost an extra $4.99 if you want that. ActiveTraffic cost $9.99 if you don't already have it.) I'm a no ethanol guy, so most places I get gas from don't spend to report gas prices digitally anyway, so I don't need gas prices. And you who have v8 already know the gas price reporting stopped working in v8 long ago.
Upgrading to v9 Premium, I've got all the features I had in v8 and way more. There's now Bing local information you can pull up for an area you're in. It's literally the "Local" features of the Bing app built into CoPilot. It also has Wikipedia information for local attractions. It has a feature to find your parked car. It has a means BUILT IN to the app to report map errors. So now they've made it super easy to report any map errors and get them updated. You point out the error directly on their map and tell them what the error is, hit send and they promise to fix it .
CoPilot never had the world's most up to date maps, you're not going to get anything different in regards to maps from v9. But I do feel the built in means to report map errors will help v9 to get way better than v8 ever was with maps. I've already reported issues in the maps that I've known were in my area. Some issues I never reported before, because it was never this easy to report them before.
You can't import your Favorites or anything from v8 into v9. So with the move to v9 you do have to setup your favorites and such again.
There's a lot more in v9 that I'm not going to type all out here. But I'll be happy to answer questions. I'd recommend if you have v8 that you make the move to v9 while it's still just $9.99.
Using at the moment. Works great
New In Tunnel Mode.
Found out yesterday when I entered a tunnel, that v9 has an "In Tunnel" mode. So you don't get errors about GPS connection being dropped. It tries to estimate your time through the tunnel and continues the moving graphic as if it knows where you are at .
Can any one upload it ?

No. It's not freeware and was not developed by an XDA Developer. So you have to buy it.
Changing to a new device can be a pain with CoPilot
I just upgraded from an HD2 running a NexusHD2 ROM to an HTC Sensation 4G (T-Mobile USA).
I got temp root on the Sensation and restored CoPilot from Titanium Backup. I had already copied the entire copilot app folder from the old SD card, to the SD card in the new device. When I started CoPilot, it was not registered. (That alone was a surprise, since usually on my HD2 no matter the ROM I could restore from Titanium Backup and CoPilot would work.) I tried to register with my CoPilot account and got a message saying that the registration was already with another device and had to be deactivated there before I could activate on the new device. (So I feel they must be storing a unique device ID when you register. And it seems that must be checked in the app every time it's started up.) Given the issues on my old HD2 (Nexus) deactivating was not an option.
I had to contact CoPilot support, tell them my Nexus One is dead and I need my account and license keys freed up so I can use them on the new device (Sensation). They asked for my license keys, which I gave them. They then told me things were freed up and should work, but still nothing would register. Contacted them again, they said they freed things up (again) and to try again. I was able to activate CoPilot, but my Live Traffic subscription would not transfer over. Had to contact them yet again, they freed up the Live Traffic subscription and I was able to transfer that over to the Sensation.
So it took some back and forth, but I finally got everything working. Keep in mind, this thing is a pain when you have to change devices. They really need to improve the method that has to be used when changing devices. But at least their support staff didn't give me a hard time once I explained the situation.
Also it is completely stand-alone... Not using the phone service. I switched too. Love it
Works fine! Have it on my HTC FLyer en HTC HD2 with rom NexusHD2 gingerbread v2.8.
You should be careful though. I bought it when it just came out, and it worked fine for a bit, but after the latest update to 9.1.0.119 it doesn't work anymore, and customer support is non existant. Try and take a look here:
http://getsatisfaction.com/copilotlive/topics
It's their official community driven forum. Just take a look at some of the problems that people are having. Both software based and with the support.
I've always received good support when I open a support ticket with them via their dedicated support ticket page.

I opened a ticket 10 days ago, and got an answer yesterday, and that was just some standard installation procedure mail they sent me. They didn't even bother to read my issues and respond to them.
5 days ago I opened another ticket, demanding a full refund, as the product doesn't work on my phone (which is on their compatibility list btw). They haven't reacted to that as of yet.
And they promise answer within 48 hours.
Understand my frustration now?

Yes, they must hate you .
I submit a ticket and get a respose usually in under 24 hours. And they charge way more for your version of their app than the US version. You'd think I'd be the one waiting...
"transfer" Licence between Devices / ROMs
Attention to all ROM "changers, testers, updaters ...":
in CoPilot Live Premium (v 9) there is no possibility to de-activate the licence to "transfer" the licence to another Device (ROM). You have to contact CoPilot CustomerCare to de-acticate your licence and re-activate it on another Device (ROM).
I use dungphp's Pyramid HTC WWE 1.35.401.1 - Real 3D [V2.3][RAF 1.9GB] and had this Problem while upgrading from 2.2 to 2.3. Normally, I chnage the setup-script so it will not delete my personal stuff and settings - but this time I deleted everything to do a clean update. CoPilot won't activate after this again!
So I contacted CoPilot CustomerCare about this. I get an answer within 12 Hours, that they have de-activated my licence in i can activate it again. I asked them where I can de-activate my licence before i change the ROM - the answer was, that there is no possibility to de-activate the licence within the software - you have to de-activate your licence over CoPilot CustomerCare.

Use Titanium Backup. You can backup before flashing a different ROM and when you restore to the new ROM you'll have everything working just fine and activated.
I checked out various apps which can locate lost phone(after stolen).
All work on the premise of installing app remotely from google play, and then sending SMS to your phone etc.,
However, there are a few caveats(with all such apps, and others too). they work for brain dead thieves.
Professional thiefs will throw away your sim card, and then put in a new sim(prepaid sims freely available).
For security, the owner of phone will obviously change the gmail password, right?
So if thief factory resets and wipes data, and then logs on with a different google play account, can you still track it?
Is there any app which allows to do the same?
Casual thieves can be caught, but what if somebody does a full wipe?
I think google tracks phones using device ID. Is it possible to track phone through google, even if android account(google account) being used on the phone is different?
Need help please.
Prevention is better than the cure.
If the phone has been stolen without any tracking software installed, then the chances of recovering it are a lot smaller than if tracking software was installed before it was stolen.
The best thing you can do is call your carrier and ask them to block the IMEI, if they care about you they may also track it down... Or at least do some kind of deal to get you a new phone.
The best tracking app in my opinion is Avast! Its free too !
There is an anti theft feature, which requires root, But it will install as a system app so a factory reset wont remove it. You can do a whole range of things via the webpage, such as activating mobile data, Turning GPS on so you can track it, You can also make the phone scream and shout 'warning this device has been lost or stolen'
This is a useful feature as only you can disable it, You can also enter a message which will be displayed on screen for the theif to see!
You can remotely lock and wipe the device, so the theif cannot change gmail account.
Its does a whole lot more too!

Will it work in the following scenario
1. thief Steals phone
2. Puts phone in custom recovery
3. Flashes a new ROM
4. Puts in a new SIM
5. Uses a different google account.
Google has IMEI number of devices used. So can google let me know which user has the phone after its been stolen, if I give them a copy of the police report or something.
Actually Samsung have a free tracking and after-theft service.
You can set it up on the phone and on the samsung website.
It works even if they use the phone on the moon after having it
flushed through a toilet....So why bother in using third party apps and services ??

This is an old 'howto'. The samsung dive also works for the Note.

Google are a massive company, I doubt they will help 1 individual person, but its sure worth a try
as for the scenario, If the theif flashes a new ROM, it will overwrite /system so any previous system apps will be removed.
But, bear in mind, not everyone is an android freak like us most people wont know what recovery is, or how to flash a ROM, so this should give you enough time to track it down via the website.
For the freaks that do know what they're doing, Well I guess thats unfortunate, No security can withstand the knowledge we have, You will just have to hope they have a nice heart and will return it.
How about 'android lost' application?

I have changed my google password. So thief will probably use new market account. Now the question is, if phone comes online via a different market account, can I still control it?
lost my phone (galaxy S2) yesterday or it got stolen - i dont know excactly.
BUT the phone is still on, even 3G.
so is there any app which i could install through the market and track it?
plan b won't work because i have android 4.x

I checked out various apps which can locate lost phone(after stolen).
All work on the premise of installing app remotely from google play, and then sending SMS to your phone etc.,
However, there are a few caveats(with all such apps, and others too). they work for brain dead thieves.
Professional thiefs will throw away your sim card, and then put in a new sim(prepaid sims freely available).
For security, the owner of phone will obviously change the gmail password, right?
So if thief factory resets and wipes data, and then logs on with a different google play account, can you still track it?
Is there any app which allows to do the same?
Casual thieves can be caught, but what if somebody does a full wipe?
I think google tracks phones using device ID. Is it possible to track phone through google, even if android account(google account) being used on the phone is different?
Need help please.
