Position Icon Orientation Stuck During Navigation

Dollarius commented 4 days ago

Description

When in (cycling) navigation mode, the orientation of the position icon gets stuck to a random angle (blue arrow in the following screenshots taken while moving):

This usually happens a few kilometres AFTER starting the navigation. My usual use scenario is:

Set navigation
Turn screen OFF and ride for a while
Manually turn screen ON to check that I am following the correct route
Turn screen OFF again

I noticed that for the first few kilometres (when the icon works correctly), the elevation widget restarts from 0km every time I turn the phone screen back ON. Once the icon is stuck, it stays stuck forever unless the navigation is ended, after which it re-orients correctly.

Steps to reproduce

Set navigation on a gpx route
The position icon correctly rotates following the direction of motion
Screen OFF
Ride for a while
Screen back ON
The position icon is frozen in a random orientation

This bug possibly started 1-2 months ago, when the following options were introduced

Position icon/View angle
Position icon/Location radius

Actual result

The position icon is frozen to a certain orientation.

Expected result

The position icon should rotate following the direction of motion.

The bug could not be reproduced. For testing, I used the bicycle profile, enabled map orientation as North is Up, and turned on 3D Relief, Hillshade, Contour lines at Zoom 13, and Weather. I also added the Elevation profile widget at the bottom of the screen. Then selected a GPX track for navigation in portrait mode, enabled simulated navigation, and repeatedly turned the phone screen off and on manually during the route.

Throughout the test, the position icon continued to follow the navigation and rotated correctly in the direction of travel after turning the screen back on.

To help us better reproduce the issue, could you please share your bicycle profile settings by exporting them via Menu → Settings → Export, and attach the file here? Additionally, we need the GPX track you're using for navigation.

Thanks for looking into this. The arrow correctly follows the direction of motion for the first 10-15km, only after that it gets stuck. It happened with many different GPX files, but please find attached the one used in my example, along with my exported cycling settings. StuckPositionArrow.zip

P.S. I just noticed that someone reported a similar issue, though in my case I am manually turning the screen ON/OFF. https://github.com/osmandapp/OsmAnd/issues/20858
