From some time ago, one of the requirements of the applications hosted at Play Store is that access to the different URLs has to be through https connections. In the latest gvSIG Mobile version, the OSM Mapnik layer that appears as base layer by default is an http connection, so it is not shown in the viewer.
The solution to show that layer is the following one:
- Download the following file from your mobile device (in case that anyone doesn’t work you can check another one, since as sometimes they make changes and url stop working):
- Access to gvSIG Mobile base layers menu, and add that file (it usually will be located in Downloads folder).
- Then select that layer ( “mapnik10”, “Carto_OSM” or “Carto_light”) as base layer, and now if you open the viewer, the OSM layer will appear (if you have an internet connection).
Here you have a video about how to do it:
