Locus Map / Re: Re: [APP] - version 4.31.+...

Last post by slarti76 - Yesterday at 17:27:34

Hi Locus Team!

I just deleted three larger GPX from the folder "Gesamtstrecken". Now there a four Trails. Going one step back in the folder Hierarchie, the amount of files in the folder "Gesamtstrecken" is still seven.

Because the trails are really large, Android did ask me if I want to stop Locus or just wait. I did stop and restarted Locus.

Speaking as a programmer myself, but you can't really expect all internal bookkeeping in a database to be correct if you kill a process while manipulating that database.

No offence meant.

I ignored it maybe twenty times before I stopped Locus.

Best regards, Dieter

Fair enough, I apologize. It sounded like the delete took a little longer, Android complained a little eagerly and you killed the process immediately, which would be, well, a little quick.

Ich habe die "wipe cache partition" heute mit Hilfe der KI  durchgeführt ...

Und ein erster Test heute zeichnete über eine Stunde und 20 km reibungslos alles auf (incl. Navigation und Zielführung) 👍
Ich hoffe das bleibt so

Hello Slarti76,

please unterstand, that I'm a user, not a programmer. I do not know, what a App does in the background. The tracks were already deleted before I went one level back in the file system. There I saw the mismatch and maybe 10 seconds afterwards Android showed me the message:

You cannot view this attachment.

I ignored it maybe twenty times before I stopped Locus.

Best regards, Dieter

Wipe phone cache partition unless already done
Power off the device.
•  a USB-C cable to a PC or another device.
• Hold  Up + Side Button until Recovery Menu appears.
• Select Wipe cache partition/ Confirm Reboot system.

Ich habe das in einem Samsung Forum gefunden.
Werde ich morgen probieren, vielleicht hilft es ja.

I also had an "System UI" error today while using Locus. Android gui restartet afterwards.

Let me know if I can provide more infos etc.

Android 14
Locus 4.31.3.12

PS: The "0/4 Files in Folder" label has an x (2. screenshot). I just clicked it and now the label is gone ( 3. and 4. screenshot).

Troubles & Questions / Locus Map Add On for Tizen OS ...

Last post by Flore88 - November 18, 2025, 22:22:53

Hi all,
does anybody know where I can find the Locus Map add on for my Samsung Gear S3 Frontier (Tizen OS) since the Galaxy app store was closed for older models? Would be nice to get the apk from an alternative app store  or sources would be highly appreciated as well.

I was using the add on for many years but Samsung stopped the app store for old watches. Now the smartwatch is pretty much useless.

Thanks a lot!
Florian

Developers / I need help Locus Live Trackin...

Last post by xjhelp - November 18, 2025, 16:01:28

I am developing a real-time location tracking website that works with Locus Map. The current workflow is as follows: the Locus Map app periodically sends user location data (including longitude, latitude, altitude, nickname, etc.) to my server, and the server is required to return a response upon receiving this data.

I have tested responses in both KML and GPX formats, and Locus Map can parse and display them on the map without any issues. However, I now wish to use JSON format for the server's response, and I am unsure whether Locus Map supports directly parsing JSON-formatted response data.

If it is supported, what specific fields are required in the JSON response? Is there any official documentation or example available for reference?

Troubles & Questions / Re: Questions Size Navigation ...

Last post by earnestbrock - November 18, 2025, 05:18:05

I'm glad you brought this up, because I'm kind of stuck with the same things.
That navigation window in the top-left feels really tiny to me too, and I haven't found any setting to increase its size. If there is one, it's pretty well hidden. And yeah, about the long-press → "Navigate to"... I'm seeing exactly what you described. It always jumps into the Route Planner instead of opening the simple navigation menu like it used to. At this point I'm not sure if it's a new behaviour, a bug, or if I accidentally changed something in the settings. If anyone knows how to switch it back or make that widget bigger, I'd appreciate some guidance as well.

Das Gerät reklamieren bei Samsung. Geld zurück verlangen.
