iOS 3.5.1 official feedback thread

[ahcheong]

actually what the "Searching network.." indicates for?

is it just indicates no network connection between client and waze server?
if like that, but why i still able perform downloading (refresh my map area to download the new map tile) and uploading (send log to waze server) while showing "Searching network.." on client?

please advice..

thanks..

Tonight I upgraded my phone. Old = iPhone 4. New = iPhone 5

Prior to activating the new phone, I did backed up to both iCloud and to my laptop (via iTunes).

History came over fine. I'm impressed. I didn't expect that. Thanks.

When activating Waze for the first time on the new phone, it asked about favorites. I said yes. I'm not sure if the question was 'restore' or 'copy'. But what I have is an old set of favorites. They are from September or so.

Any suggestions as to how I can get the favorites in the old phone over to the new phone?

Been working pretty great for me. The only thing I'd really like to see is a setting to enable/disable the ios status bar in app. It would be nice to use it for extra screen space and less distraction. Tomtom has this feature and I couldn't imagine it would be very much difficulty to incorporate?

Proximity sensor blanks Waze screen

When I move my hand near the ear piece on my iPhone4 to select an option in that part of the screen or even to just reposition the phone in my hand, the whole Waze screen goes blank. I'm assuming that Waze turns on the proximity sensor for some reason, but it's disconcerting to have the screen go blank all the time.

You can turn off the proximity sensor in the voice recognition options.


Via my iPhone 3GS.

You can turn off the proximity sensor in the voice recognition options.

To be clearererer: turning off voice commands will not stop the blanking, but turning the feature to 3-finger tap only will do it.

Here's yet another set of possible issues:

1. on my iOS local waze log files (postmortem) I have the following line, average one per second, but with periods of dozens per second, and periods of one per some seconds, filling up megabytes of disk space:
[11:01:53 Error] (sprite) no image found for small_yellow_arrow [poi.c:534 (poi_display)]

2. sometimes I loose the ability of getting the map scrolling with the car. Pressing the icon on the left side to center on my position does nothing, no scroll, no zoom back to my position. Need to restart the app to solve it. Sometimes it even switches to 2D. I can't yet relate if it's when a popup appears or something, but I do have these lines on the logs right before I restarted the client:

[10:22:52 Warning] Canvas module 3D is not ready!!! Can not call OGL functions! [canvas3d.c:347 (canvas3_ogl_updateScale)]
[10:23:31 Error] RemoveAlert() - Failed (List is empty). ID 185691169 not found [RealtimeAlerts.c:1063 (RTAlerts_Remove)]
*** Starting at 07/12/2012 10:23 ***

PS: this may be related to me changing the file "user:Map.Show top bar on tap: yes", which I turned off again, but "user:Map Icons.Show on screen on tap: yes" is correctly working (tap on map shows and hides the center/north/zoom in/zoom out icons correctly)


3. I'm pumping the waze voice instructions via bluetooth to my volkswagen based radio (no music from the iPhone though), and after I receive or make a call, waze stops giving me voice instructions.
I can only see these relevant lines on the logs. between 20:27 and 20:29 there was the voice call.

[20:30:40 Warning] OPENEARSLOGGING: The Audio Session interruption is over. [AudioSessionManager.m:530 (audioSessionInterruptionListener)

I've also sent my logs via client. case 1 happened a lot yesterday between 20h and 21h19 and this morning between 10h and 11h. Case 3 happened yesterday around 20h29 and 20h43.

i'm not sure if it was an upgrade with 3.5.1 specifically, or before that, but in the last month or two i notice that the warnings of upcoming accidents, police, speed traps, etc are way too far away - they seem to be triggering at about 1200 feet, and then a large part of the map showing where i want to go NOW is obscured by the bubble about the incident. was this purposeful? it makes it hard to correct the notification or say "Thanks", since i need to see where i'm going to turn off.

The bug is currently alerting in meters instead of feet.
