wake lock does not seems to be working

[mdakram]

I am using this application with some extension.

1.added mapview user track on map.
2. and a list view to see which provider is generating the fixes.

but i find out while service is running in background.
gps is not getting fixes. might be the case library is not using wake lock concept.

tell me if i am wrong

Thanks

Hi, what happens when you notice this? Is onLocationChanged not triggered or something? What tracking profile do u have set?

[mdakram]

Hi phpmaps, thanks for your response this fast

profile was Adaptive and yes onLocationChanged was not triggring after 1hrs in background.

Let me know the device specifications when you get a minute including the manufacturer, model and droid version... I don't think we use wake lock, but may use partial wake lock when managing power settings. I can check to see.

Out of curiosity, does the problem go away when your app is open and running in the foreground ? Is this just a background issue? I'd like to narrow down if this is a device specific issue or not, so please let me know information about the device when you see this behavior.

[mdakram]

Yes its problem when application is in background for long time.
My device manufacturer is samsung and model is gallaxy s and droid version is 2.3.
Thanks

Was the device stationary or had it moved more than a few city blocks? The adaptive profile turns down the frequency of location fixes to conserve battery when the device hasn't moved for a while.

Device was on the move and when i opened application it started logging my location again thats why i wonder gps fell asleep and was not logging. My droid version is 2.3 device galaxy s.

Network location is also not being update when device(4.2.2) is in sleep mode

Hi mdakram - Would you provide some details as to what you do to surface this issue you're reporting?

[mdakram]

hi Doug,
actually i have been using this to track my location from long time.
initially i had droid version 2.3.3 now i changed my device(droid 4.2.2) and set my tracking Profile to adaptive.
i did't turn the GPS on as i have not been doing it since my first use.
i found our location gets updated only when device's screen is turned on.none otherwise
