Does the update to Pure Maps 3.4.0 require the latest version of SFOS?
I have SFOS 4.5 and there was no Chum updates from Pure Maps 3.3 (but it did found updates for MapLibre and Mapbox)

#280

which 4.5 version do you have? we may reduce in chum number of repositories soon and Pure Maps is not currently compiled for all versions. See Show sailfishos:chum / pure-maps - SailfishOS Open Build Service - only ones marked “succeeded” have new Pure Maps

I have 4.5.0.21. Today I was able to find the update for my version.
Thanks!

As we had most of the libs compiled for .21 as well, I enabled other releases accordingly. So, it should be installable on all releases that it supports.

I’m having some issues where Pure Maps is getting randomly SIGKILLed by something, despite having plenty of free RAM available. It never happens during navigation itself, but navigating the preferences, or looking up addresses will often kill it.

I’ve checked with htop, and while it happens there’s always over 2GB of RAM free, so I’d imagine it’s not a low-memory kind of situation. I’m kind of puzzled on what’s going on.

Seems SFOS is also lacking auditctl. Any clues as to how to track this down?

#284

I’m pretty sure that has to do with this, I’ve followed those tweaks and now only get applications to auto close if I have a lot of heavier applications running.

#285

Well, I can’t find anything in dmesg regarding to either “memory” or “oom”, so unless the logger also got killed, I’m assuming it’s something else.

Also: There’s over 2GB of memory free - which is a lot - and even with the tuning it still happens.

Edit: Seems it’s actually this: Xperia X 10 II GPU heavily affected by GPS fix (Pure Maps and other GPS related apps)

Did someone try Pure Maps on the Jolla C2 yet? For me the latest version from Chum crashes after briefly showing up.

Same happens on mine. No time yet to investigate.

Does it still crash if you use ‘online’ profile and OpenTopoMaps?

#289

How do I change the profile without starting the application?

#290

Hm… I’d say: go offline and try until it works. Don’t scroll in the app until you changed mode and map provider.

… at least in offline mode.

Thanks for the tip! Pure Maps works with OSM Scout Server without any trickery.

Mixed and Online modes crash - maybe because OSM Scout (default) is the only Map option (on the 10 III there are 12). Starting from command line there are nags about several missing libraries but most of them are in /system/lib64 - iggzackly like the 10 III.

I did not get any working OSM-Scout On my Jolla C2 from one of the 3 known stores (Jolla, Chum, Storeman aka Openrepos.net).

#295

Thats funny, because OSM works wunderful and flawless on my X10 iii and X10 V ( via Storeman).
But I do not get Rain Viewer to work, only black screen.
Sometimes it appears erratic what works and what does not.

#296

It’s OSM Scout Server.

#297

On the Jolla C2:
Jolla Store: No OSM Scout server there to Download for the Jolla C2.
Storeman: Installation-Error: libicui18n.so.68()(64bit) missing.
Chum (from Website, because GUI doesn´t show up): Installation failed (without any detailed infos why).

Use Chum directly not with the Installer.
