OSM Scout Server: offline maps

Same thing? What do you call convergence?

The N5 has the ability to work with an external keyboard and monitor. I have never tried it on my N5 either. I have seen reports of it working properly. I suppose it's possible this capability was removed in the process of making upgrades to new LTS releases. I do not know the current status of this feature.

convergence: plugging in a screen, mouse and keyboard and use it like a computer.

pure maps works great indeed. but convergence does not, the nexus is not powerful enough...

@magdesign - Your comment regarding the N5 being insufficient is unexpected. I do not know that it is or is not from the perspective of development. However, it makes me wonder what have I observed others accomplish.

@magdesign said in OSM Scout Server: offline maps:

This should work fine with the N5.
Using it like a computer (i.e. running LibreOffice) here I agree it is not powerful enough (but I don't know many phone with enough juice in order to give this kind of experience).

Hi there,
anyone ever had the error code 99?
I had successfully downloaded two maps and tried them in offline mode. Everything worked fine. I was very very pleased. After that it was not possible again to download any other maps. It says "Network access disabled". However, the wifi network is on, and I didn't change any settings. Of course I restarted everything a few times.

Any idea what happened?

@Taiga-Woods I experienced that today, too.
At the end I deleted and reinstalled OSM Scout Server (rebooted in between).
Everything worked again afterwards and the maps I had downloaded were still there.

But I'm also interested if there's another solution...
