**suemer** · 9th December 2008, 10:39 AM

Velox v.2.0.2 *updated*

Supported Features:
* display speed
* display total time
* display travel time (= time with speed > 0)
* display daily distance
* display total distance
* display gps information (number of satellites, height, travelling direction)
* display average speed
* record gps tracks

How to Use
After starting the software for the first time , it starts searching for bluetooth gps devices. If it doesn't find a gps device, the software connects with the first found bluetooth device. After successful pairing with a gps device, the phone creates a connection with this device and starts reading gps data from this device. Make sure bluetooth is enabled on your phone !

On gps enabled phones , internal gps will be used , but a bluetooth gps device can be paired via the options menu.

GPS Tracks can be recorded via Options >> Record (Start/Stop) and recorded tracks can be displayed with Options >> Tracks. Tracks can be transmitted to pc via bluetooth. Make sure your pc is visible and an OBEX server (e.g. gnome-obex-server) is ready to accept files.

After transmitting the track to the pc, it can be analyzed using the velox-gps-tool.jar (requires Java 6 , start with "java-jar velox-gps-tool.jar"), which generates a speed/height profile , a [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
and a [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] which can be viewed in Google Earth. An example can be found [Only registered and activated users can see links. ].

Please Note :
1. The bluetooth gps receiver must support the nmea protocol and output rmc data.
2. Not all phones support uploading files via bluetooth.
3. If you want to include Google Maps file on your homepage, then you have to change the API key. Otherwise , it won't work.

ChangeLog v2.0.2 (December 2008) :
* Reduced memory usage
* Added support for some motorola and samsung phones
* Fixed a possible dead-lock in velox-gps-tools.jar

Velox is a speedo clone which uses a Bluetooth or internal GPS receiver to display speed, calculate distances and record GPS tracks.

Velox supports recording GPS tracks and GPS tracks can be transferred to the PC via Bluetooth. A tool for analyzing GPS tracks is available here:

. This tool allows the creation of speed/height profiles and generates Google Maps HTML files, KML files which can be loaded into Google Earth and GPX files containing the waypoints.

Notice: not all compatible phones are supported (e.g. the SonyEricsson C902, which provides the Location API, but doesn't have an internal GPS receiver). Some useful hints:
If no OBEX device is found when uploading a track to the PC, then make sure the PC is visible and an OBEX server is running. You can also try to turn off the Bluetooth GPS receiver and restart Velox, then try to upload the track again. Some phones have problems scanning for devices when another connection is (or was) established (e.g. Samsung F480).
When no Bluetooth GPS device is found make sure it's turned on and visible. Try to go to a place where only this GPS device is visible and no other Blueooth device is in range.
Some phone have a memory limitation for MIDlets, e.g. Motorola limits the memory to 500 kB although several MB would be available.
