New issue 1586 by djvn...@gmail.com: In Android 5.0.1, selecting ANT+
sensor in Settings crashes My Tracks
https://code.google.com/p/mytracks/issues/detail?id=1586

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install current ANT+ Enabler (v2.0.5)with Bluetooth Patch (v1.07)
2. Launch My Tracks with Sensor set to "None" and begin recording a new
track
3. Change Sensor setting from None to ANT+

What is the expected output? My Tracks should begin logging data from ANT+
Heart Rate Sensor (Garmin)when this is present.
What do you see instead? Crash Notification "Unfortunately, My Tracks has
stopped".

The screen offers to Report the Crash to Google, which I have done several
times. However, it does not seem to let me save a copy.
Partial Stack trace is:

"Caused by java.lang.IllegalArguementException:Service Intent must be
explicit: Intent
{act=com.dsi.ant.IAnt_6}
at
Android.app.ContextImpl.validateServiceIntent(ContextImpl.java:1674)

...
at
com.google.android.apps.mytracks.services.sensors.ant.AntSensorMannager.setUpChannel(MT:131)

... several more "at"

This crash occurs whether or not any ANT+ sensor is actually present. Just
switching the My Tracks Sensor Setting to "ANT+" is sufficient to make it
occur in either case. The crash gets "reversed" and My Tracks begins
running again if the Sensor Setting is switched back to :"None"

Separately from the issue with My Tracks, the Garmin Heart Rate Sensor is
detected normally by ANT+ Plugins Service and is able to send HRT data to
the ANT+ Demo app with no problem. This would appear to indicate that the
bug is in the the ANT+ interface of My Tracks, rather than in ANT+ enabler


What version of MyTracks are you using? 2.0.9
On what version of Android? Android 5.0.1 LRX22C
On what phone? Nexus 5

I have since found the problem can be resolved by reverting from Android 5
to Android 4. 4. 4. Not a great solution but at least it does resolve it
temporarily. Moreover it does demonstrate that the problem lies in the Ant+
interface of Android 5 and not with any of the Ant+ utilities.

djvn...@gmail.com This solution is unacceptable.

In the case of Nexus 5 this is a problem in the app My Tracks and Android 5
too.

I use other apps - Orux Maps and Pulsometer - that work seamlessly with
Ant+ through patch called Ant+ Enabler.

The fact is that app Google My Tracks is not working even through patch
Ant+ Enabler.

It is an annoying flaw we need paid third-party patches to enable the Nexus
5 Ant+ and there deficiencies in ecosystem apps like My Tracks.

That's a shame and we need support and immediate correction.
