iOS version / Wierd behaviour of track racor...

Last post by PieroA - Today at 11:58:32

Hello,
quite often I keep experiencing the same issue while recording a track on a normal walk/hike.
The attached screen shows the latest 2 issues I had, looks like crazy gps  but actually it records correctly with other apps like Garmin and etc. running at the same time.
This issue leads to totally wrong overall data like distance and climb.
Please note that as suggested, I am using only the offline maps.
Recoridng in this way is quite useless.

HW: Iphone 16 Pro 18.7.1

Hope to solve this issue
Thank you very much for your support
Piero

Themes - Vector maps / Re: [Theme] Map-Themes OUTDOOR...

Last post by tumic - Today at 11:08:49

This is actually not what I meant with "Please test and give feedback.". I though more about testing the themes on your favorite maps and give feedback about the colors, symbols and so on.

Well, if the theme does not work at all in the application I was trying to test it (GPXSee) because it is not a valid Mapsforge theme, than you can not do much more other testing...

Posting long error messages for themes which are working perfectly fine does only confuse "normal" people. I rather would prefer if these error message posts would "disappear".

If you want such message posts to disappear, then simply fix your theme to be a valid Mapsforge render theme. Because an invalid theme may break in Locus at any time as the Mapsforge rendering engine evolves during time and it may stop accepting invalid render themes like other engines already do.

Could you please elaborate a bit more on the checks you did? I use "circle" and "radius" as described in the renderTheme reference.
What kind of checks did you perform? Did you check something just in the .xml file? On which machine?
For me, both themes run without problems.

What more info do you need?! I have simply checked your map theme for validity against the Mapsforge render theme XSD using xmllint (the tool does not matter, you can use any XML validator, but you have tho complete command in the original post) and your theme is not a valid Mapsforge render theme.

The HR - Heart Rate Push application must be started on the zepp os device.  Then it works.  Tried with Amazfit Active 2. Bluetooth visibility enable and some bluetooth restart ...

In Czech language application name is "Tlak na srdeční tep" ;-)

Crash on navigation would indeed be serious. Cannot confirm after a quick check though. I started navigation, then turned off screen for some seconds and then back on. Manually.

So I did some testing: crash only happens when a dashboard is Active. It does not matter what is in the dashboard - even a completely empty one triggers the crash. If I disable the dashboard, crash is gone.

Can someone confirm this?

Greetings, Ulrich

This workaround is only valid for guidance mode. Navigation always crashes, regardless of the dashboard (or anything else navigation draws on the screen).

Maybe also related to the Android version (S23, Android 16).
