I'm using my old Samsung S5 phone as a GPS on my motorcycle. I is not my active phone, so no SIM card. Has almost no apps on it after a full wipe. GPS on, Bluetooth/WIFI/Cell off. I'm powered by a Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 charger (phone only makes use of 2.0 I understand). Maps are offline. No routing happening. Track is being recorded.
My problem is that my phone isn't taking in more power than it is using. I bought a fresh battery and it still will only run for 4-5 hrs before the phone dies. Shouldn't it be powered up and running indefinitely as long as it is receiving power?
Also, every now and again, Locus Pro just quits. When I restart it, it seems to keep on with the track recording. Not sure why that is happening.
Are there more things I should be doing/turning off in order to have the charger keep up?
