Title: breaks in recording a track
Post by: perittel on January 26, 2020, 18:11:08
Hello,
I'm french and I use google translate  :'(
when I want to record a track during the hike, the recording will pause on its own.
I use locus map free, my phone is a Huawei P20 pro under android.
should you configure the phone so that it does not cut the recording?
Thanks for your help
Alan

You need to make Locus excempt from Huawei Battery Optimization.
In addition, in Locus Settings, you should activate "Locus as a service"

In addition yoy can check this page (https://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:faq:gps_lost_fix_android6#huawei_honor) and this page (https://dontkillmyapp.com/) too.

And to be sure you can check this settings (https://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:user_guide:settings:gps#disable_location) in Locus.

Resetting your phone will not help. Please do the recommended settings above.
