Strange GPS/Position behaviour on screen

M. Schrijver

I've talked about this behaviour before but it was only text. Now i had the opportunity to make a video of it.
Sadly the video is not a sharp as i would like but it is what i could do at that time.

What you see in the video.
The zoomlevel jumps around a lot and the GPS speed indicator lost its mind. One moment there is no speed and one second later the indicator says 183 kph.
You see also in the video i'm driving behind a car. So the speed is more or less constant.

If you think it was a brief moment. Nooo. It lasted for at least one hour before i was very irritated and stop the route, killed the app and rebooted the phone. After this is was better but not totally gone.

@M-Schrijver Thanks for sharing

@M-Schrijver I had something similar. Are the offline Maps ook your phone. In my case that was the cause and when I put them on the phone instead of the sd card the problem was solved

M. Schrijver

I use offline indeed. But no SD-Card. It is not supported by the phone. The offline maps are on the phone

@M-Schrijver I have also seen similar several times, not noticed the speed jumping but then I was probably too busy trying to figure what was happening with the rest of the zoom / position display.
No SD card, updated maps also on the phone & running in offline mode.

You might want to consider recalibrating your GPS as a first step. Google how to do that for your specific device.

Ik could do but it is a MRA and/or Here problem. Never had this problem with other apps. More than once with MRA.
