How can anyone participate in this thread? It is a mix of completely disconnected thoughts, responses to questions that don't exist, posts are not in order, what a freaking mess. WTF :shock:

At the bottom of the screen, make sure you have the forum set to display posts sorted by post time and not something else like by author.
Thank you sir,

I am positive I have not changed sort order on my own. :P

This is a "feedback" thread, in which each post is assumed to stand on it's own as official feedback for the 3.7 release of Waze on Android. If someone is responding to another, they should quote, or at least name the person they are responding to, to show the connected thoughts.
Sure, some of the posts stand on their own. ;)

Random thought.

Funny, how ever since the "merge" Waze does not show as battery consumer. It is considered part of the "Maps".

Favorites are stored in file called "history". Always keep backup of this file. Just copy "history" file into Waze folder.

I don't even have "Maps" show up in my consumer list...

Like everything in this life it all depends who is counting the beans. :)

I am running HTC One with Google Edition ROM. Waze does not show up as battery consumer at all.

Running WAZE 3.7.2 on a Samsung Galaxy S4. When the phone is positioned on its side so the display is in landscape mode, there are graphics that overlap one another that interfere with normal use of the interface. Specifically, the lower left-hand menu icon overlaps the 'my location' icon and the lower right-hand icon overlaps the 'zoom out' icon.

Is this something requiring a software update, or is this something I can adjust, and if so, where?

This problem exist since November 2012. Ever since Droid DNA (1920x1080) has entered the market. Waze acknowledges the problem but they refuse to do anything about it.

Let's hope that ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) will move them forward.

The question isn't "can it be fixed" because any IT professional knows that it can with some code tweaking. The question is "will it be fixed". That one hasn't been answered yet.
What's extremely disturbing is the fact that other hi resolution devices are treated right. It's 1080p devices that suffer from wrong UI layout.

I am having the same issue.
It will be fixed, sometimes in the future, but probably on the next major release like 3.8.

Don't get your hopes too high. Those now highly paid Google employees will look more at their wallets then at their code. :mrgreen:

Lot's of crash reports lately. I am sailing smooth with no stability problems.

Just for the record. When was last time someone from Waze participated in this thread? :?:
