@domubpkm When I had this issue in the past, I always could reliable "fix" it with deleting the cache. I don't had to restart several times or something like that.

@kugiigi That's right, I know So the next person which is having trouble with that, should not shoot at the whole ".cache-Folder" so that we could localize what specific cache-Folder is causing this issue. I think it has to do with mediascanner or components like that.

@kugiigi I don't remember correctly which special cache I've deleted, because I hadn't had this bug for a long time. But removing

~/.cache

should definitely work. But this way will also clear caches from other apps...

@domubpkm I've experienced this bug several times on several devices under several versions of UT
I don't know what's the cause of this and if it ever will be fixed, but clearing the cache always worked for me.

@domubpkm have you tried deleting the cache?

@AppLee said in 20.04 Focal: uNav freezes with GPS enabled:

I don't remember exactly but I think I make my search before asking to locate me.
Basically there is an order that work ; search the location, then start the navigation, then location activation.

That was the way I thought it would work reliable, but also this order freezes sometimes.
When you first locate your position and then try to do something else (e.g. search a destination, calculate a route ...) the crash is save for about 99,9%.

Long story short, there's nobody who can say, that the navigation is working for him like expected and without issues. And for me, that was the case under Xenial. There have never been any freezes in conjunction with GPS. So, how can we figure out what causes this freezes?

@lduboeuf Yes, he said it's working for him under noble. But It think he's using a Fairphone 4 or 5.
I don't think it's a device issue because there are multiple affected devices and under these, there are Mediatek and Qualcomm chipsets.
But, like @haagch said, it would be nice to know, how to debug this issue to help get this annoying bug fixed.

I also think RCS is one the next "big things" after VoLTE, but in my opinion the only variant that makes sense is 1. (modify existing messaging-app to be capable of RCS).

@CiberSheep @TheBird @zubozrout Can you please mention on which device these freezes happen to you? I've opened a bugreport but it seems to work on a Fairphone 4 (qualcom device...).
For me these freezes are happening on Vollaphone and Vollaphone22 running Focal and Noble.

@CiberSheep I think that's also the wrong place, because it must be a problem in the location-daemon/gps-daemon.
I've tested it again with todays build of noble and it's the same behavior like under focal: unav, puremaps and even morph are freezing once you have searched your position and want to do something with it (e.g. calculate a route from the actual position). Maybe @peat_psuwit does have an idea or can even take a look at it?

@ezst036 You have to unlock the phone first and then you can directly access the files on your phone via the filemanager on your computer.

The last days I've used the navigation a lot for a motorcycle tour and it was very annoying when the navigation freezes.
I've played around with noble on my spare phone and it seems, that this bug is present there as well
So hopefully we'll get this fixed in near future, to have a reliable working navigation again (as we had in 16.04).
Is there anything we can provide to the devs @costales @rinigus or help in any other way?

AFAIK it will move to noble, but it won't get VoLTE (like the Vollaphone). First it's nice to know that these devices are kept alive with the move to noble, but on the other hand it's a pity that they won't get VoLTE (even if they are capable of that under VollaOS). So they will be up to date from the software-side, but can't do a simple phone call or sending a message/SMS because of the 2G shutdown

@Vlad-Nirky I'm using the calendar of my E-Mail-Provider (posteo) and it's working like expected with caldav.

@arubislander For @Salah EVERY bug get's fixed with the release of 24.04

@arubislander I'm pretty sure there is a bugreport anywhere. As I said, the bug is in Focal, was in Xenial and I think also in Vivid/Trusty.

Edit: Here is one bugreport for this.

And that's an old bug: Shutdown the OS with more than three opened apps crashes Lomiri.

@Vlad-Nirky That's the same for me. When you wan't to change the keyboard-layout in system-settings you are not able to do so. But when you try it through the keyboard-indicator you can select your layout. After that system-settings etc. is not available anymore (crashes directly after starting the app).

According to the question @domubpkm : Will the milestones be updated to the actual release schedule? These dates and milestones are outdated but in earlier days it was a nice place to look at which OTA will land at aprox. what time.

@Salah Then it seems for me that it's not related to the cache.
