Hi manu EL, have you tried at the moment the issue appears on your Samsung A3, any other smartphone device, to see the GNSS receiver capabilities ? Don't forget that the GNSS receiver on any smartphone works without the need of GSM modem. You may have the device into airplane mode without any problem for navigation needs. Exactly as i am doing from 2012 into my 4 smartphone different devices i had. Also, i can track my route with the screen off, to save battery.
At the end i remind to you the company Garmin. Devices like the new GPS Map 66S, can work from 8 up to 20 hours. The working hours depends from the user navigation needs. Into track recording mode with the screen off, can last a lot of days. Just only with 2 AA batteries.
