www.apsquared.net. App is saying free preview has expired?

Have not used / tried it but I am very sure you are aware of PocketDay Sports! I love it!!!

Yes, I am aware, but I like the way this autoupdated with the play by play. Seems to be dead.

Let me DL it real quick to confirm for you....

Just downloaded it and here is what i get right off the bat....

"The application's free preview has expired. Please visit http:// apsquared . net for update"....

Must be busted SD........

That's what I got. Bummer.

Hi all,

I'm the author of MLB Tracker. I hope to release a new version of it early in April - the software works by scraping various other sites and so I need to verify that the sites I used still are using the same format and if not make some updates (unfortunately most of the sites don't use the same format during pre-season, so I have to wait for real games to try it out).

Thanks for your interest.

Great app - I hope you get it back up and running. Thanks.

You might want to post a note on your website or some will think it's dead.

This looks like something I can make good use out of when it gets back up and running.

Keep up the work, looking forward to the updated version!

Woot for another Stros fan!!

MLB Tracker 2007 should be ready now. I haven't had a chance to do much testing but feel free to give it a try and let me know how it goes.

We've decided to keep it free again this year, but we do ask those of you that like it to do us a small favor and support our new website. I don't want to spam the link here but you can find a link from our MLB Tracker Page.

Enjoy!

Was very happy to see this. Unfortunately, while it allows it me to add teams, I can't watch any games. It throws a java error. I am on an 8800 with 4.2.1.72.

I get a java error also, running a pearl with .71

Hmm, things look good on my 8700.

Does the error happen when you click watch game or when it tries to show the summary screen with just each game and the scores?

Any more info on the error?

Does anyone with a pearl or 8800 have this working?

nope Pearl, just opens up with
"Unable to connect to MLB data source. Please exit this app and retry again.
Error:java.IOException:Invalid url Parameter."

I can see the game list, but when I try to play games I get the error. Uncaught exception:3>=3 for LAD and OAK, but for SF the numbers are 0, and no module name shows on top. Also the module installed is numbered .72 while the app is .74.

AGAIN THANKS FOR THIS NICE APP

This is exactly what I get too. Wish it worked, sounds fantastic! Reminds me of the old mlb pager-type device I had back in the day.

I've got the simulator up and running and showing an error but not the URL error you guys are talking about.

I get the array index out of bounds error.

Is everyone who is getting the error on an 8100 or 8800?

The program is working fine on my 8700.

Same here, also on a Pearl.

Ok.. well I'm working on it. Unfortunately I'm not a BB coding expert and don't have an 8100 or 8800 to test with... the simulator is giving me different results than what you all are seeing.

If you happen to know (or know somone) about BB development please see my post on the developers forum.

One last question, are you using BES?

I'm on BIS and am having the same issue with the Pearl

Am I the only person with an 8700, or is it just working for everyone with an 8700 ?

Btw - Lets go Mets!

If you want to walk me through what to do on my pearl I can troubleshoot for you. PM me and I'll send you all my contact stuff and you can pick how you want to reach me

Using BIS on my Pearl. Good luck hunting this down...sounds like a cool app!

I think its an OS issue. 4.2.1 is probably throwing the errors.

So, does that mean you can get it figured out?

There is a new version on the site, I was able to reproduce the Array error (the one that showed 3>=3) and then fix it with the simulator. I never saw the error with regards to the URL parameter (that may be a different issues).

If someone who had the array (3 >=3) error before could download the app again and let me know if it works I'd appreciate it, once I have that issue solved I'll move on to any other issues.

I get it to work on my pearl, BUT, the times for the games are wrong. I went to the wap.mlb.com on my computer, and the game time are off by 1 row.

Do you have the Yankees or Devil Rays in your list, they got PPD and that may cause a bug to show up in that portion of the code.

Did the watch game feature work now for any of the games that are in progress?

"Unable to connect to MLB data source. Please exit this app and retry again.
Error:java.IOException:Invalid url Parameter."

BIS with Cinular 8800

Still getting the URL parameter error on the latest version with my pearl.

Ok, now this I don't believe is a 4.2 vs 4.1 OS issue but rather BES versus BIS. Something with BIS makes it cause problems for people. Two suggestions to start:

1) After you get that error, if you click your track ball / wheel you should see the menu, if you chose options and set the use device side settings to true and restart MLB Tracker does that help?

See http://www.blackberryforums.com/blac...t=APN+Settings for more info setting up your device.

2) If you check invalid url parameters blackberry - Google Search you will see other apps that have similiar issues and the steps that users have to go through to get them working. Perhaps one of those will help.

Yeah, it was the yankees, and they were rained out.

I dont have any "options" all I have is close when I click the trackball

Really no options? On the simulator I see the options screen... I did find a bug that when you change the option and hit the back button you get an error (but the next time you start it the change has taken effect). I'll get a fix out for that error shortly.

Anyone else try to hit the options screen with no luck?

Another way we can figure out what is up is to try this testing tool I built:

http://www.apsquared.net/BBHTTPTester.jad

Load it on your BB, first try to just launch URL with the basic google.com address, on BIS that probably won't work (just curious what the error you get is though).

Next rerun the app and click Append device side, then click launch url (you need to first set the APN settings on your phone via the TCP options). Does this work? (If you see an error about a 302 code that is fine, that means it worked).

Last but not least you can manually add the APN settings for your phone, I've included them for TMobile but you should be able to add Cingulars manually.

Let me know if any of those work, if so I can adjust MLB Tracker accordingly.

I downloaded the latest version (0.78), set the device side settings to true and verified that the tcp setting is correct, but still no joy. Still getting the invalid url message on my Pearl (with BIS). Incidentally, if I proceed anyway and add a team I get the error "java.lang.RuntimeException: blocking operation not permitted on event dispatch thread"

Sorry, this is real difficult to debug b/c there is no way (at least that I know of) to simualte a BIS connection. If you could download the HTTP Tester:

http://www.apsquared.net/BBHTTPTester.jad

if you can play with adding the WAP Gateway settings to the url on the line (as mentioned in Disclaimer ), if we find a setting that works for your phone then I can update the MLB Tracker to work.

Thanks!

I tried the BBHTTPTester with the following results:
1) straight out of the box with the google address I get the "invalid url parameter" message
2) selecting "Append device side" I get "java.lang.RuntimeException: blocking operation not permitted on event dispatch thread"
3) selecting "Append device side" and the T-mobile WAP settings (I'm on Tmo) I get the 302 error

Hope this helps!

Mine is working with .78 on an 8800/BES. Note though that SF doesn't show up on the games list but its in the menu and I can watch the game. LAD and OAK show up fine.
