Google Map on VZ90?

[bunbuns]

Has anyone got google map working on the VZ90?
http://www.google.com/gmm/index.html

Every time i try to run it i get the following error

palmgstring.cpp:217
error == errNone

I tried even doing a hard reset and install it from there but no luck.

Any one else have better luck?

[dragonsgames]

Nope... can't get it working either... maybe the Japanese OS? idk...

[intellidryad]

Same here with a Japanese version of TH55 and NX73v...

exactly the same error message

[dragonsgames]

Well, then it must be the Japanese OS... :(

[bunbuns]

Hmm, i might post a bug report on the google map website in the hopes of getting it fixed.

If you get any reply, please do let us know, thanks!!!

It's not even designed for the Clie, I bet they couldn't care less if it's working on a rare-Japanese one... :(

Hi. :)
It is a patch that uses GoogleMaps with Clie Japanese version.

GoogleMaps.prc ver1.1.1
33B2A:6604 -> 4E71

Please look at my homepage.
Sorry Japanese only.

Oh, wow. Too bad I don't have the VZ90 anymore... :(

[intellidryad]

Hi, mini, thanks a lot, Arigatou gozaimasu~ m(_ _)m

I read your site, yet don't know what is the "proper binary editor" mentioned there?

By the way, do you also read SPA san's So-Mo blog? :)

[intellidryad]

OK, got it done with HexEdit ( http://hexedit.sourceforge.net/ ) for Mac, and it worked!!!

Here's a screenshot:

This is so cool~

What a shame the maps of Taiwan are all empty (showing only white space), but, well, I'll be moving the the states soon, so, I'm keeping the app :D

Hmm? I wonder what kurie means?

[intellidryad]

That [kurie] thingy is actually, "Clie", sounds similar, right? :D

And the "love house" thingy in the 4th line is actually "lover", thus the whole line means: "For every Clie lover..."

[mini]

Exactly, "Kulie" is a meaning of "Clie".
And, "love house" is a meaning of "For every Clie lover...".
You are great translator. :cool:

This patch is popular among the Clie users in Japan.
Please enjoy GoogleMaps with VZ90.
Thanks.

Thanks, I guess one year of college Japanese course does pay off, and besides, I can read the kanji as Chinese characters :)

Actually, I'm using it on my Japanese TH55 (I really like ATOK and Decuma Japanese, so I got a Japanese model), since the Google Maps error is a problem with the Japanese OS, not the VZ it self.

I'm curious how you found that fix though, I don't even understand a bit of all that hex code...

[bunbuns]

hot dog!

mini さん　ども　ありがとう　ございます！

Awesome app! Blazingly fast and efficent! Did it have some specific device ID value or something that prevented it from running on CLIE?

Windows users can try http://www.physics.ohio-state.edu/~prewett/hexedit/ to do a quick change to the hex values in the PRC.

Hoooo, hoooooooo,

Furansu no mappu arimasu ka ?

I read your blog.
The comment was written in Japanese.
Can you understand?

I think that GoogleMaps doesn't check device ID.
There was a problem because it was a Clie Japanese version.
A patched GoogleMaps works well by the Japanese version Clie of VZ90, TH55, UX50, and NX.

I'm impressed that you can write the hiragana. :) Good!

You are also good at Japanese. :)
Of course, the map of France can be seen with GoogleMaps.

You might have been surprised because there were a lot of travelers in Kyoto.
Please go sightseeing in Osaka, Nara, and Kobe when you will come to
Japan next time.

[totololo]

Hahaha, last time, i visited maybe too often around " den den town " ...

(for everybody : den den town is a kind of akihabara, but in Osaka and not Tokyo) ... Lot of second hand clies and many many good stuffs !

I love KAKIGOORI

Thanks for the comment, I understood it, with a few lookups on my TH55's dictionary :P

By the way, as you mentioned Osaka, Nara, I just went there this winter. I like the dear in Nara park :) It's a shame that my TH's camera died on a rainy day in Kyoto during that trip, though...

[totololo]

Especially for Intellidryad ...
And for those who are curious about Japan.
