Smartgpx on a Nokia

The Rats · Post by **The Rats** » 31 January 10 11:52 am

I'm using smartgpx software on a nokia N97, which I must say is great. My problem is and I hope someone can help, is exporting my field notes. I export them to a folder in the memory of the phone, but the folder seems to be a closed or a hidden folder. Its icon is a closed folder while all the other folders on the phone are an open folder.
When I try to find the folder or file viewing them through the PC they are not visible and thus I cant download my field notes. I cant seem to find anywhere on the phone which shows me the properties of the folder.

Anyone else using smartgpx on a nokia and experiencing the same issues. Ant help greatly appreciated

Don't stress I've solved the problem.

That's a relief!

Sorry I couldn't help. Did install Smartgpx once but never really used it. Didn't find it very easy to use.

I've been using SmartGPX on a Nokia e51 for the last couple of months since I finally gave up on the sluggishness freezing and crashing of my Windoze Pro Dumbphone

There's a bit of a learning curve due to a few gaps in the documentation but overall I'm very impressed by SmartGPX - it's as good as Cachemate for the s60 devices IMHO

With Nokia now offering free lifetime navigation I'll be sticking with Nokia when I next upgrade phones

- there will also be no need to buy the TomTom I was thinking of either

Been using it on an Nokia E61 for 2 1/2 years.

All good although working out how to add images would be handy.
Currently use one 2500 Geocache export out of GSAK to populate it.

Now that I didn't know, time to investigate! $\:D/$

Me either and I am due for a new phone soon. I have been tossing up between the iPhone and another Nokia.

Do you know if it is on selected models or all GPS capable Nokia's.

From the Nokia website it's the following models: Nokia X6, Nokia E52, Nokia E55, Nokia E72, Nokia N97 mini, Nokia 6710 Navigator, Nokia 6730 classic, Nokia 5230, Nokia 5800 XpressMusic

I'm thinking seriously about an E72

They'll probably include new models as they are released

I'm slowly warming to the smartgpx app. Like Rhinogeo sai, there is a steep learning curve. My first trip with it and I came back hoping to upload the field notes but since my gpx query was created using the cache name and not the code I wasn't able to upload them, but thats all part of learning.

I would recommend the phone and the app. to others.
