[UPDATE] Guardian Beta 4 by Symbian Toys

Guardian by Symbian Toys has been updated again !

Fixed bugs:

- Localize Command correctly sends the Cell-Id after the desidered timeout for gps.

- Delete Command doesn’t “freeze” the device during it’s operation (note that, like in Localize, to correctly test this command, you have to keep the Guardian’s interface opened until the operation has been finished…)

New:

- Registration menu’ is now avilable and partially working…
After you’ve selected “Register -> Via Internet”, enter this LicenseID “AAAAAAAA-AAAAAAAA” and a “Registration Complete” message will appear.
Entering any other LicenseID will result in an error message.
- Alarm Command has been introduced. Will sounds a loud alarm for 5 seconds.

Known Issues:

- Some navigation softwares, communicates directly with the Bluetooth GPS, (eg. tomtom) in such cases Localize will not be able to use the Bluetooth GPS device to provide the Location.
