Have you checked that OSMAND is excepted from any battery saving mode? Have you Greenify installed? Anyway, I prefer a different solution. I'm using "GPS Logger" which drains less battery. You can then copy the track saved by GPS Logger to the folder <OSMANDs data folder>/files/tracks by using any file manager (like FX). Helmut
