UPDATE:
Please try both and report back how it works :) And update to 3.4.6 ;)

tl;dr: “remove system package”, update to v3.4.1, report again!
-

This is just AMAZING! Thanks everybody for the awesome feedback!

This is obviously a delicate issue and there are a number of problems to address, so it’s better to handle them one at a time.
Let’s start with the lost-after-reboot one. It took a lot of checks and workarounds coding but 3.4.1 should survive reboots (and updates). It’s been tested on CM6.1.1 and stock Gingerbread – but I’m sure all the ROMs out there do things differently, so keep the feedback coming!

IMPORTANT: “About”/scroll to bottom/“remove system package” BEFORE upgrading to v3.4.1 (or you’ll have to delete a spurious apk with other means – not sure if its presence is harmful for v3.4.1).

To completely remove JD you will probably need to reboot after “remove system package” and before uninstall with the usual means (Android’s Manage applications etc.) – share your experiences on this.

Also, feel free to experiment with and without USB debugging on. I’ll do some testing on my own.

Then we’ll see if the r/w vs r/o (@Tracy any more info on this? It’s the first time I hear of it) is indeed a problem.

I’m pretty sure other problems (corrupt files etc) are caused by timing issues. You could test whether a high vs. low

UPDATE: v3.6.8 is out (latestdev) with a brand new Location algorithm. For the sake of testing, please clear all your locations (or try the new view/auto-reset) and restart from scratch :)
Training works as before (conceptually) but the uber-expansion should be prevented in most cases.
Share your results!

Ah, that’s interesting! (@Bubo)
This is what I mean by “location gets polluted by stray readings” – for whatever reason (ahem radio firmware bugs) the normal cell kicks out the phone, which then connects, even if for only a couple of seconds, to a cell much farther away; in the long term this will result in pitiful Location accuracy.

So, some possible ways to circumvent this:
- have an option to set lat/lon/accuracy manually
- have a manual ‘freeze’ button for each location that would prevent further “expansion”
- have a global “max radius” option for all locations
- have a supersmart and complex algorithm doing the “freezing”/max-radius-enforcing automatically by keeping track of location reading accuracies over several days (my favorite solution as it would imply me going into deep-coding mode possibly for weeks – it would also surely introduce bugs and unwanted side effects, at least for a while until they’re ironed out)

What’s your vote? And what are, in your opinion, the pros and cons of each solution? Or do you have a wholly different idea? DIZCUZ! :)
