MTP is probably the most annoying thing I encounter lately on tablets, why don’t I get a simple USB mass storage when I connect my tablet? here some hints on how to get (maybe) rid of mtp in ICS (android 4.0) Just change the connection mode to Mass Storage or PTP instead of MTP, under Settings > Storage in the dropdown menu (or using the context menu button).
Yesterday I had the possibility to present QGIS on Android at the QGIS Swiss user meeting 2012 held at the Bern University. In the morning I held this presentation and in the afternoon I leaded a small workshop where we discussed more in depth how qgis of android works. I’d like to thank the QGIS user group Switzerland for organizing and the sponsors for supporting such a nice event.
So, after a very succesful rainy weekend the long-standing project of a new website is finally reality. Thanks to this project I had the chance to check out with no client constrains what was out there to allow me doing what I wanted. After an in-depth review I decided to use WordPress with the customized Shell-lite theme and some plugins. Now, to the why, well I really love the way WordPress has evolved from a Weiterlesen
Since September 2011, as a result of my Google Summer of Code QGIS mobile project, QGIS is available for Android. As the maintainer and main developer behind QGIS for android I’m striving to improve it as much as possible. All my work is done in voluntary base, so if you can, consider supporting the development by using the donate button on the right. Another great way of helping developing QGIS for android is sponsoring the Weiterlesen
Hi all, I’m remaking my site, so please apologize if you encounter any inconveniences. I should be done soon. Ciao Marco
One of the nice things of being freelance it that you can work on Sundays when the weather is horrible and get out on Tuesdays when it rocks 😉 . So Tuesday I decided to go test QGIS at high altitude and went to the Breithorn and the Pollux with my best friend for a nice winter end tour. At the summit of Breithorn I took out my Galaxy, started QGIS and opened my basic project, turned on GPS Weiterlesen
Thanks to FORNAT AG which sponsored me I could spend some time looking for solutions to make QGIS on android working with an external GPS receiver that sends NMEA strings. It all boils down to the following: via bluetooth works via USB not yet (as soon as I get more sponsoring or time I’ll look more into it since I’ve some ideas). To use an external bluetooth GPS you have to follow six easy steps: Weiterlesen
At FOSSGIS I was asked to try to install qgis on a very small android phone, I think it was a 3.2″ screen. the install went smoothly after making some space but then the problems came because of the small screen. Eventually I thought about setting a smaller font size to make the UI scale more, the problem was that it was impossible to get to the size setting because the UI was to big. Weiterlesen

7, my luck number… So here you are, the latest and greatest QGIS for Android. This release includes the super new pinch zoom tool, should have no blocking dialogs anymore (i fixed the attribute table) and the help->about shows now from which commit the package has been created. The packages containing armeabi and armeabi-v7a code are still less stable that the armeabi only packages (the ones with the -armeabi suffix) which are still the preferred. Weiterlesen
