No tracklog on Android phone
-
Hello!
I‘ve been using MRA for a while to planning of routes. The GPX files were then loaded into Garmin Zumo XT (I hadn‘t been pleased with that device), which I sold and instead got me a Gigaset GX6 Smartphone with Android operating system, and installed the Myroute-app.
To my great chagrin I could never get a tracklog when navigating using that app. I tried different settings, de- and re-installed the app. I did sent my complaint to the developers of Myroute and since we’re trying to find a solution. Thank you, dear Jarnick!
However, until to date we’re not having any idea as to how to fix the problem. Thus I’m posting this request asking whether anybody else would have or have had a similar problem of being unable to record and to save a tracklog on Android smartphones.
Left hand to greeting!

@Reinhard-Grossmann-h-0 Do you see a green spot in the ETA box after you start navigating? This indicates that you are tracking your route. And have you selected to Show tracklog in Navigation settings > Screen layout > Lines? This will show a yellow line when you are tracking.

Thank you.
No, I never saw that green dot, which puzzles me ever from the beginning.
Yes, I’ve switched on “Lines” -

@Reinhard-Grossmann-h-0 Do you have location services set to allow all the time?
And do you have Accuracy set to use precise location?

@Reinhard-Grossmann-h-0 I suspect the problem lies within your phone then.

@Reinhard-Grossmann-h-0, What exactly happens when you try to start a tracklog, by manually pressing the tracklog button?
I have some experience with a finicky tracklog start, but I thought that was limited to some of the beta versions. The tracklog would not start (not automatically nor manually) and the button would refuse to turn green. After a forced close (not the swipe method, but from the apps section in your Android system settings) it would work once, but then the problem came back.
If you recognize what I describe, I am pretty sure it will be solved in the upcoming V6 version of the app. And if you do not recognize this, it will probably be fixed in V6 too
