Track recording looses GPS position

Walther Schubert shared this problem 8 hours ago

Since awhile track recording quite often looses GPS position, allthough the sky view shows a lot of satellites. I have to switch off and on GPS in Locus. Recording resumes, but with a straight line from the last known position.

All settings are unchanged ( Battery optimisation off, ...).

I noticed this issue since about January, using Locus on this phone since two years without javing any issues.

Hi,

please get Locus Map permission for all-time access to the location and exclude Locus Map from all means of battery optimization so that the app can run in the background, see http://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:faq:gps_lost_fix_android6. Also, switch Google Services assisted location off in Locus settings - GPS&sensors.

As said, I never changed these settings: locaton always allowed, battery optimisation off, Google off. What more?

Can I provide any debug logs or the stuff?

It's probably the phone. The S24 has had a bug since Android 16. https://forum.locusmap.eu/index.php?topic=9452.30
