I'm still getting nowhere with Samsung :/ They've thrown the app out of the Bada marketplace because it doesn't work with 2.0

Breaking every GPS app is crazy by them. Just crazy.

And luckily I still haven't been able to upgrade my phone to 2.0 - that Kies thing won't let me!

Hi!!!!

The problem is the Bada 2.0.

I try runningfree (which I unnistalled without know I can´t download it again), runstasticc, smartrunner, badatrakcer, Imapmyride..... and all of them have the same bug: At 10 minutes more or less the GPS does not work, or give incredible reads. I buyed (4 €) badasports thinking it will work better, and it is the same.

But I think I have solved the problem. I start a long play-list in the audio player, put the volume at the minimum or mute, and then I star the badasports. Doing this yes, it works!!! So I think the trouble is the opperating system. I think that the audio player not allow the phone to suspend it at all, and the gps go on running.

Yes, doing this the battery runs out faster, but, at least, it works. If I could, I´d came back to bada 1.0. It have not this bug. My wife´s wave is bada 1.0 and it runs ok. My last ride I used the two phones (wave with bada 1.0 and wave with bada 2.0) and they works ok. The differences was the bada 1.0 catch gps signal a little later than bada 2.0, but the bada 2.0 battery runs out very faster because I used the "cheat" of the audio player to avoid suspend the phone.

I think it´s time to Samsung fix this bug. The gps can not turn off when there is a program using it. No matter the screen is locked, the program is using it.

The only program which does not need this fix is "Smove" beacuse it not allow the opperating system to block the screen. but the trouble is that not block phisical buttons. So you can accidentally exit the app or turn off the phone.

I think if Samsung fix this bug the runningfree app would work properly.

Note: sorry for my english. I don´t use it to much.

Dear wishes, and enjoy your runs!!!!!!

Hi wilq

I´ve reading about returning to bada 1.2. It´s possible, yes. Thanks

On the other hand the problem is runningfree is not in samsung apps, neither in web nor mobile app. If I return to bada 1.2, I will not be able to download it again.

The idea of an app about a random number is a great idea, but I think is an idea to solve a bada´s trouble, not running free app´s trouble. But It could solve our problem.

I think the solution is in the hands of Samsung, they must fix it soon.

My wife is bada 1.0, and her runningapp is not working no more since last sunday. I tried to restore files from a backup, but it did not work. And in Samsung apps is not it, or I can´t find it.

Thanks for your answer.

Time to wait for Samsung.

Good Morning!!!

Thanks for your work, Hollywoof.

Good luck in this.

Hi cernicalo! I wish it was not, but this project is apperantly dead. I am thinking of both "wave" and "runningfreeonline". There are no new "waves" released at all. Samsung abandonded wave and bada and said it officially. Then.. Look at the total kilometers at runningfreeonline and discussions. No doubt that this is the end :( Sad - because I liked runningfreeonline very much but as for the moment I changed to android and endomondo. Sad but true.
