Moderator Approved Badges can be turned off, if you do not want them popping up. Tap the options button, then "Display" you will see the option to turn off the "Trap Badge"

Re: Customizing Trapster 3.6 for BlackBerry

hi anoud,

Be sure to check out our support site: http://getsatisfaction.com/...

This means Trapster can't determine your GPS location. First, make sure location is turned on. If you have the new Verizon BlackBerry Storm or Tour, location is off by default.

Finally, go into Trapster > Settings > GPS and make sure Allow Assisted GPS is set to No and then restart Trapster.

If that still doesn't fix the issue, try a battery out restart of your BlackBerry. Also make sure compatibility mode is off. Many BlackBerry Models are "GPS Ready" but do not actually have GPS hardware inside them.

The TMobile Curve and most carrier's Pearls do not.

You can check by clicking on the BlackBerry icon Options | Advanced Options | GPS | GPS Source. If it says "Internal" or "Device" then your BlackBerry has GPS hardware in it.

Also, Verizon BlackBerrys have internal GPS but in models other than the Storm and Tour, Verizon blocks access to it by 3rd party applications (except for select fee based ones like Verizon Navigator).

If you don't have internal GPS hardware, or you have a Verizon BlackBerry other than the Storm or Tour, then to use the Trapster GPS application you will need to purchase one of these external Bluetooth GPS accessories, sometimes called the "puck".

Hi tshililow2,

Yes, Trapster works worldwide. Sounds like you are not getting a strong GPS signal. Please send us an email: Contact@trapster.net with details of your iPhone, which carrier, which version of the operating system, and which version of Trapster you are using. Thanks

Re: Trapster: Turns iPhone Into Police Speed Trap Scanner

Awesome Post!

Only one mistake "enable the compass (iPhone 3GS only)."

We use vectors calculated from the direction of travel, like a car navigation system, instead of simply using the compass (which also means it works on the $99 iPhone). The option for map facing North is still available but to change the map to rotate dynamically to your direction of travel, select the top blue “N (with an up arrow)” icon on the right side of the screen.

Re: DC police chief calls iPhone users "cowardly"

Funny story - While we (Trapster) were setup at SoCal Euro in San Diego, the police officers patrolling the event drove by and took a picture with our "Trapster Girls". One of the officers told us his wife just received a $470.00 ticket from a Red Light Camera... So now his wife uses Trapster. :-) I Love it.
