Incorrect color of satellite button

Andrew Heard shared this problem 6 years ago
Solved

I have only noticed this incorrect color indication twice - yesterday and a few weeks ago. Maybe since major satellite code change in 3.30.0? Below the satellite screen shows all is good: my normal signal strengths; last GPS fix is incrementing each second; usual #satellites; usual accuracy; and there has been no GPS dropout notification/ alarm:

And most important indication that Locus also thinks GPS is valid - when I zoom my walking position on the map is updating OK.


However the satellite button is orange instead of green:

I tap on Satellite button and quickly tap on Satellite map - disable/ reenable, return, and button is now green:

0f7d4efd647695d04d71993b0af76732

I can't tell how long the button was orange, anywhere from 0 to 15 minutes, but it had been green from start and for +30 minutes.

Good day Andrew,

complicated task to solve without clear steps to reproduce it (complicated, I know).

Same problem happens and it happen to me few days ago as well. I made another small improvement, that may help here, so we will see.

Currently icon in panel indicates if GPS is "fixed" or not, but icon on the map is based on source, so blue means data from GPS (may not yet be fixed). Will have to unite it.

I am glad you have observed this issue too. I have never seen this problem until recently.

Well it happen, but just for a while out in the field and never later at home.

I've at least united system of top status icon and icon on the map. System of something like "GPS fix" is for some time not a valid. There are only two options ... you have a location from GPS or not. Based on this will be coloured icons and map cursors.I'm marking this issue as "solved", anyway because it's hard to simulate, feel free to re-open (or anyone other) and continue if the same issue happens again.
