The GPS demands that you go back to the last spot you were tracking (hike from a week ago). Another problem is that it will not start tracking after you clear everything. When the temperature is low, it will not start tracking. Takes quite a while for it to come up to the correct temperature. On my last update, they reset the temperature to 37 degrees when you turn it on. Unless you have the very latest computer operating system, the updates DON'T work or leave your GPS worthless. Each update you get, they might solve one problem, and create a whole bunch more. Many of the mistakes are classic negligence. Whoever is in charge of their software engineering should be fired. But, if you need a GPS, then Garmin is the most likely choice. Customers deserve a lot more then Garmin is willing to do. They continue to get horrible reviews, and yet they do nothing to correct the problems.
Or, maybe it's because Garmin truly doesn't care about it's products or customers. With marble I can find more location options like “qt positioning” - which somehow tells me my position, but there is another option called “gpsd”, that I didn’t get to work (and I think It’s the real GPS positioning).The problem with most GPS devices is that they were designed by people who don't hike. The thing is, that the preinstalled maps (I believe these are gnome maps) just show me where I am and if I move, they don’t display it. I know that GPS (location services) are below some “security settings” and I can enable it there. I also wanted to try GPS, because I want to use it in the future - but I’m not an expert about GPS things and don’t know exactly how to make it work. (if I didn’t mention it already, the default maps kindda work - only with internet connection). I wanted to try maps, so I searched for them and tried to install OffRoad (de facto OsmAnd) - didn’t work at all (didn’t even launch), so I tried to install things like marble.
I was impressed with the stability and with working cellular data connection (because plasma “stable” behaves like dev and the “ real dev” even worse ) I wanted my PinePhone to be more “daily driver ready”, so instead of beautifully looking plasma-mobile I installed manjaro phosh.
