If you are using ADB, make sure to copy (back) BOTH files to the mapsVector folder.
No "import" needed, as Locus scans those folders fully with each start.

I think there is a good reason to have both. Help desk typically is for the official app users, while the forum folks walk on the bleeding edge. Different audience, different topics.
And if the forum virtual team (incl. Menion and team of course) do well, the official app will not be bleeding re. the topics already ironed out in betas or re. specific use cases.
Just my 2c.

Ahh, root. Dann hast Du sicher keine Probleme mit einer AFA-Version.
Oder aber /Android/media nutzen. Die 11 GB (World ZL 11 also) sind also wahlfrei auf INT oder EXT SD zu haben.

@Joska: tap track, select share symbol, at the bottom of the popup you'll find external share with this addon offered.
Tested with LM 4(!)

Ich denke, Menion hat da einmal systematisch aufgeräumt, und bietet die freie Auswahl nur noch in der AFA-Version an (für manuelles sideloading der App).
Aber Locus bietet seit längerer Zeit auch /Android/media-Orte an für die Verzeichnisse. Dort können sich file manager-Apps lesend und schreibend zugreifen.
Backup, SRTM und wohl auch Vektorkarten nutzen andere Zugriffe auf Dateien, die offenbar nicht von den kranken Einschränkungen seit Android 11 betroffen sind.

The fraction separator in international libraries typically is ".", not the German Komma

@michaelbechtold:

4,50 is my setting in walking profile.
In bike profiles the brf file shows the double value of my setting (14).

Walking and hiking profiles show correct value in error message, all internal bike profiles the double value. Strange.

My point was "," versus "." - does it make a difference?

28,0 - 4,50 ? Is there a way to specify 28.0 and 4.50 resp.?

HYPER COOL, this Text Rotation. TXs a lot, Menion!!

@Andrew: even unzip is causing heavy CPU load (zip is multiple times harder, BTW). And when you use lower zoom levels, you'd need a number of those ZIPs ...

...
Extra question: is it possible yet to keep each HGT file within a ZIP file? I know it has been discussed & I did a search but could find no answer. I could test myself, but it's pretty slow. I suspect not possible.

I remember, too, this has been discussed. However, turned down. For a good reason: hgt 1" on ext SD can already be a performance challenge, let alone putting unzip on top of that. Not feasible.

If your (iliketrains) database is in Tapio's location, you are doomed, most probably.
As you have Android 9 and maybe it was an old install, you might be lucky to find the Locus root on the uppermost level of your storage and then "inherit" that after re-install.

Good stuff, Menion!
Will you also update the MapsForge library so that label rotation is possible in Locus?
TXs and cheers
