Android killing background location app after awhile

[James]

Device: OnePlus running android 10

I am experiencing issues with prolonged background app tracking on Android 10. It seems that after a period of time, the app is killed entirely and the background locations stop coming in.

In build hints, I have android.xpermissions set to:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" /><uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />

I am starting location tracking like so:

CommonUtil.log("Starting Tracking"); LocationManager.getLocationManager().setLocationListener(new LocationListenerImpl(), new LocationRequest(LocationRequest.PRIORITY_MEDIUM_ACCUARCY, 1000 * 60 * 5)); LocationManager.getLocationManager().setBackgroundLocationListener(LocationListenerImpl.class);

I am also starting geofencing like so:

LocationManager.getLocationManager().addGeoFencing(GeofenceListenerImpl.class, revisedGeofences.get(id));

Upon entering a geofence, I simply increase tracking accuracy

LocationManager.getLocationManager().setLocationListener(new LocationListenerImpl(), new LocationRequest(LocationRequest.PRIORITY_HIGH_ACCUARCY, 1000 * 60 * 2));

All of this works fine for the first several hours, and then it suddenly stops until the app is manually opened. Any thoughts?

These can be a little tricky to debug.  Especially if it takes a few hours to occur.  Can you access the DDMS log from your device?  It will probably offer some clues as to what it going on there.
