Seems like someone has finally made a start on developing a PPC version to the CellTrack app which was only available for smartphones running Windows Mobile from http://celltrack.spv-developers.com.

I found this while googling CellTrack for a PPC version. There is a beta version out for the I-Mate Jam which will work with other PPCs running WM 2003. The app ran on my MDA II (ROM 1.72.170/Radio 1.17.00) but would only show the LAC and the CellID since it is a testing version while the bugs for transitioning the program from Windows Mobile for Smartphones to the PPC Editions are worked out.

Check the bottom of the page:

I haven't found anything close to this yet so for the moment, it looks like this is the best we'll get.

Yes, I use it and have a lot of fun with it, specially when I travel to the areas that have no native Cingular (blue or orange). It's fun to record what I am roaming on.

hmmm, that sounds cool, thanks for sharing.

ShoresGuy · 01-16-2006, 7:18 PM

Yep I used CellTrack a lot on my N-Gage before that phone conked out on me after nearly 2 years. At least now I can track my local cell towers again and check to see where they're located.

n7ryy · 01-21-2006, 3:29 PM

I am playing around with it too, but it seems to be a static display. The LAC and CID do not seem to change as you move around. You have to quit the program and rerun it to get updates. I am also playing with cell profiler. It has a toolbox function that shows LAC, CID, and signal strength in dBm. It also does not update automatically, but it does have an manual update button. http://www.cell-profiler.de/

I hope the Cell Track for PPC has some upgrades soon, it seems to have real possibilites by looking at the screen shots for the other devices.

ShoresGuy · 01-22-2006, 5:31 PM

Cool, thanks for the hint n7ryy

Did you download Cell Profiler without purchasing it?

n7ryy · 01-22-2006, 9:32 PM

Yeah I think it is a 30 day trial off handango. You have to tap the question mark on the far right and then toolbox. I am hoping there are some updates to Cell Track, also would like to find a Series 60 phone for a reasonable price.

ShoresGuy · 01-23-2006, 9:04 AM

Sounds like a good deal, I will try this out when I have a chance

. Thanks for the info.

Which S60 handset are you after?

n7ryy · 01-23-2006, 12:24 PM

No problem! I am after whichever one I can get my grubby hands on, though it needs to do 850 GSM. I ultimately would like a Nokia 6682, but would be happy to find a 6620, 3620, 3600, or N-Gage QD. I believe all those are 850 capable.

ShoresGuy · 01-23-2006, 6:44 PM

Yep, the 3620 was the 65k color screen update to the 4k color screen that the 3600 had. The QD, 3600 and 3620 are GSM 850/1900. The 6682 and the 6620 are GSM 850/1800/1900.

Charlyee has the 6682, ask her a few direct questions since she's had it for a while.

n7ryy · 01-23-2006, 7:07 PM

Yeah I read her review and some others. Also played with it at the Cingular store last week. Unfortunately I don't have $300 burning a hole in my
pocket

I just spent nearly $600 a little over a month ago for my I-Mate JAM, only to see it drop $100 in price the following week.

Basically my only purpose for a Series 60 phone, unless I find $300 laying around and buy a 6682, is to use for CellTrack and as a backup phone when I am having problems with my JAM. I seem to be having some poor reception issues with it compared to a Nokia 3595 or 6200. Not sure if it's the metal case or not?
