Since many years ago I have used the free
Opencpn version on my laptops with CM93 world chart sets.
Then I bought a Samsung J7
phone and as a backup I installed your version. with a subset of CM93
charts for the
caribbean, located on the SD card in the
phone.
Worked fine, very happy with it.
Recently I changed the J7 for an Itel A50 A667L with Android 14, and again installed your Opencpn from the appstore. Everything worked fine but the detailed
charts did not appear. (I had put the same SD card with the CM93 subset into the new phone). I tried several times to associate the chart files from the "charts" section of the settings, it seemed to precede normally, no error messages, but the detail charts still did not appear.
At some point I got a message to migrate the chart files, so I blindly followed the instructions to do so. I got a display showing the progress of the migration counting down the seconds, but when it got to 2 seconds left it stopped, stuck, with no way get out. (See screenshot)
Closing the app, restarting the phone, and reopening the app results in "Opencpn needs to update the chart directory", I click OK and the same countdown displary runs, again sticking at 1,2, or 3 seconds.
Help!
