GPS resetting #6

Closed aprsandrew closed 4 years ago

aprsandrew commented 4 years ago

Installed the test version (apk I have is from Dec 18) and noticed GPS seemed to be crashing repeatedly. (ie, GPS Status would pop up and disappear over and over). Restarted the app and issue went away. Need to do some further testing and make sure this is not going to be happening in the field.

So on the current APK (2020-02-05), it still does this on initial start up. I installed the apk, went in and set all the settings as usual, backed out of the app to home screen and it started cycling the GPS on and off over and over again.

Went back into the app and "End Program". Then re-ran the app and backed out to home screen and GPS seems to be working normally again.

Also restarted the tablet and let it start up automatically and it seems to be running ok.

So perhaps just something related to first run, but still need to make sure it's not going to be doing that in the field.
