Sounds like really bad luck, Clemens.
This /Android/data location is the unsafest place for an install, regardless if on external or internal SD (and Locus documentation and I think even the installer warn about the deletion in case of de-install).
Moving an SD from one phone to the other can be like wiping the /Android (may differ with different vendors, though).
There may be a chance to recover the SD data via a PC plus an SD card undelete software. In any case I would remove the SD for now and NOT store new stuff on it, because that may prevent above recovery.
thanks for your feedback and suggestion ....
The /Android/data location was chossen by Locus Map iteself .. (and not from me!) by changing the standard internal storage to external SD card storage .. ! --> so this seems for me a big gap of the app during this time ... This was about some years before, when I install the previous handy ...
-- it seems to be that is now better solved with the standard location at /Locus directly under the root of the SD card.
I have some luck, because I find the SD card that I used in my handy about ~3 years before (I buy a new SD card) and can recover all maps that a have at this time, so now I only lost the maps, that I buy during the last ~ 3 years, but this was not so much ...
Thanks to you and all others for help and suggestions ... I hope I remember, when I have to transfer all data next time :-)
