Version 3.0.1.1
Still zoom issue when running Waze, especially when using the bigger zoom and have some pop-up alerts in traffic jam.
Sometimes, zoom is not going back to initial value.
Sometimes, Waze starts with a little zoom (it was stopped with a big zoom).

Version 3.0.1.1
Some problems when starting Waze with no data available --> Waze unable to get a fix nor connect to data.
This can be repeated doing this :
1) Having a wifi connection, stop the wifi and while the 2G/3G/4G not still availbale, launch Waze.
--> Waze can't connect to the network (bec. no wifi and not yet data connection), can't get a position on the map, and do not connect by itself.
Need to stop Waze and launch again.

For those who are running Latitude and personal tracking, it seem that is makes Waze becoming very very slow. The map is not refreshed correctly and our icon is moving jerkily...
I had to disable personal latitude tracking.

I run Latitude and waze simultaneously with no problem.
Yes... Latitude works !
With the update that permits to track your personal device (I received the update yesterday from Google play), it makes Waze very slow in moving my car onto the map (my car do not moves regulary. It stays at the same position then moves to the other and wait a bit then moves again).

I made a mistake. The update is not this function. History of tracking was already existing into Latitude. It is just the fact I enabled it that makes my Waze running slow.

I was on the highway... But my icon was outside !

I made some tests, and found that accuracy is very dependent of the available memory.
If not much memory on the phone, accuracy is very poor.
If enought memory, no accuracy problem.

I sometime launch an application that consume too many memory (because of cache).
After this application is closed, there is no much memory available (< 10 MB).
If I use Waze, the accuracy is poor.
If I delete the cache for the other application, and give more memory to the device (> 20 MB), accuracy is still poor.
If I reboot the device, accuracy is good !

Already posted an issue on this...
This is what happen when long pressing or miss-pressing on this button, and of course no pop-up opens for describing the alert !

Zoom issues : found how to reproduce !

Version 3.0.1.1

When you are in this case (means no GPS fix), tap on the screen. New icons appear on the screen. Then tap on the left icon to return to geolocalized mode --> Zoom is reducing !

Had sometimes issues with GPS or Data... Had to stop Waze then start again to get it working.
Sometimes, Waze remains in this state... (same picture as above).
