Title: Android 11 Locus crash
Post by: tannenzäpfle on May 06, 2021, 20:00:29
Hello,
today Android 11 has been installed.
Now Locus Pro and Locus 4 crash on start. The Directory Sdcard/Android, is shown but empty. As I see n the PC the files are still there.
Any solution?
Thank you

Have you checked the Locus permissions (look into Android App management)?
File system access (media etc etc.) must be granted.

Permissions are set, the problem as the change in the handling of the SDCard with Android 11.
The directory SDCard/Android/Data is shown on the Smartphone as empty, reading the card in the PC all subdirectories are shown.

Please update to the latest Locus Map version available on Google Play.
Does it help?

Sorry for the late reply but on the weekend we had summer and furthermore I tried to root my device.
Now I was successful, I set the Locus directory to SD Card (please see below)
But I have to state that starting Locus and opening maps will take a much longer time than with Android 10.
Thank you
Hartmut

Oki, little "hard" solution.
The slowdown is a problem I'm aware of. It happens on some device no matter which app you use. Nothing I may improve for now, sorry.
