bump for awesomeness.

 

[rick311]

dont know why you people are letting this drop to the bottom.

DL'ing now.

Do you guys think this will work on the Eris? I DL'ed but haven't tried it yet. I'm guessing the processor won't be able to handle this very well.

 

[Cajun83]

Gonna wait and see when I drive home from work. I don't see how it wouldn't, its just a vid feed coming from the camera with an overlay on it. Not like it is streaming a video feed over the air...

anyone get this to work? i tried it and it kept telling me to download the latest version of the software.

I tried and had a force close. Didn't have time to try again. Tomorrow...

D/L'd for eris. Got about halfway home with it before it force closed. Seems like a cool app idea. Hope I can play with it some more soon.

Mine was working great for most of the day until the last couple hours. Now it's telling me the same thing. I wonder if everyone else is having this issue. It also can't be just an Eris issue because I'm using an Incredible.

That's probably why its still in beta.

I wish I could try this, but I have no way to mount my phone in a way that it can "see" the road in front of me. Its a pretty cool idea though.

I tried to get it today but no such luck, I was to late. LOL, all we need is a good samaritan to upload it here so we can try it out.

 

[Jeep297]

How do you upload it? I tried to save it to my memory card and computer but it says that it's protected and won't let me do it.

 

[rick311]

if you can walk me thru on how to get it i will try and upload it for y'all. this is why you should have payed attention to my post when i first posted!!

I guess they only offered 2,000 for download, then took it off the market.

 

[cevMkV]

[Crash27]

Used it yesterday... if I had a nice mount to put it in, it would likely work very well... don't like the text to speech program though. If they would do like a normal navigation system and record voice commands it would get five stars from me. Worked well in both modes with no force close or lag at all.

 

[Crash27]

I love it, it works amazing, I thought it was going to be one of those over hyped apps but it is what they say, And the camera mode just makes it amazing, What I would like to have for a good app would be something along the lines of the Google Street View and the ability to plot your course and view it at the street level and see what it is going to look like before you drive it, You can view most of the areas but the street views are outdated, My location is from last winter and I can see my old van still. They need to have these updated every few months to keep them current.

 

[Jeep297]

So it's still working for some people then? When I looked at the reviews under my downloads it seems like everyone is having the same issue as me. However some of you seem to be saying it's working fine right now. What gives? Why does mine still say it needs to be updated?!

 

[rick311]

yea, still dont know how to get past the update prompt im getting.

 

[Crash27]

Works for me, had to turn on gps and point out window but it works
