[Bug 1462664] Re: Geolocation app is freezing in a few mobiles

 

Yesterday I had 4 freeze error (with needing to restart the app) and 3
times with no problems.

The freeze errors always happened when driving in a town, not on the
road. So I think what Edwin says is possible.

I have a question:

      It is necessary to have 3G all the time or the app has the ability
to work with just the GPS signal (without refresh the map)?

Bug description:
  Hi!

  With the app GPS Navigation a few users have problem with a freeze
  issue, because of 100% CPU usage or heavy swap usage (I don't know,
  because I can't reproduce it.

  For some users, it is working perfect, for other is freezing after a few minutes. You can see here the user reviews:
  https://uappexplorer.com/app/navigator.costales

  The code is here:
  http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~costales/unav/trunk/view/head:/www/js/geolocation.js
  It's just a simple HTML5 geolocation code. Even I added a reject control for more that 1 request by 800 microseconds.

  I think it could be the GPS doing a lot of request by second or the
  web container is freezing waiting for GPS.

  Thanks in advance!
