I've just updated my Nexus 7 to v5 or lolipop or whatever Google's latest iteration is called.
The problem is non of the 'keep screen' apps seem to work on it now, including the one I had on the machine.
This is serious for navigating as the most you can hold the screen for using the settings screen is 30mins.

So if you're asked to upgrade don't, unless you know more about this stuff than I do ( not difficult)

And if you do know about this stuff can you help me with something that will keep the SkyDemon screen alive for more than 30 mins.
SkyDemon 3.2

Tim,
I can reliably get a crash by selecting "simulate" before the route and maps have had a chance to complete loading. LogCat dump attached.

Yesterday I made a 90min flight with several sharp tuning points of 90d or more. I had one single BT XGPS160 hooked up to 3 Android tablets. All running SD 3.2.1.22629. Tablet A is running 4.4.2, tablets B and C are running 5.0.2. Tablet B is Nexus7 2012 and tablet C is Nexus7 2013. Tablet A is Lenovo Yoga2 10".

Tablet A behaved very well with only one crash right after takeoff. Tablets B and C crashed multiple times during the turns, my logs are divided over 5-6 sectors, none of them showing anything but almost straight lines. On the Nexus SD is very susceptible to crashes during turns. I am running Bluetooth GPS Provider at 10Hz refresh rate. I will now bring it down to 1 Hz to see if it was overwhelming SD at 10Hz.
Running Google Tracks with the same hardware during a 45 main bike ride was absolutely steady and precise.

I understand that Android 5.1.0 has been released and is due to be pushed out to Nexus devices in the next few days. Hopefully, this will solve the stability problems, but I'm not going to hold my breath...

Mike
