Bluetooth remote controler does not switch screen ON
Known
I occasionally use a small Bluetooth remote control on my bike for rudimentary control of Locus Map. I currently use a waterproof version with 5 buttons, which is actually intended for media control. The middle button is used to answer phone calls and transmits the code 25.
In the expert settings, I have used this button for Screen on\off. Switching the screen off works immediately, but switching it on never does.
All other buttons work as usual. I have had similar experiences with various remote controls, but I don't understand the (in)logic behind it, as the explanation of this function actually says “send xy and the screen goes off, send xy again and it comes on”.
Does anyone have any enlightening ideas?
The same problem 
Hello,
unfortunately with one of recent Android updates (few years ago) app stopped receiving key events from remote controllers when the app is hidden on background (or when the screen is turned off).
For now, we unfortunately do not have a working solution to this, sorry.

It works for me when I deactivate the lock screen. There are also ways to deactivate the _lock screen when locus is active. To do this, you have to use Tasker.
