20210126 Android 11 update done. Samsung Health tracking of walk progress does not work unless I am holding my S10e. Before 11, walking progress tracked when S10e in my pocket. Also, AutoPaused kept stopping my progress while walking. Spotify may be affected by 11, too but can not identify exact problem.

20210205 Always use Verizon MiFi before and after Android 11-Samsung Health Walking map and location can not follow progress unless walking in straight line. GPS does not capture movement correctly. I walk 2 miles and map shows only 0.1 miles walked. Spotify collection of Liked Songs plays 2 tracks then stops. Have to stop then start 3rd, 5th, 7th, etc tracks to resume playing. This Spotify interruption happens whenever update to Android rolls out and developers made aware of bug, so next update removes bad code until next update version released. Ongoing interruptions to Spotify Liked tracks caused by Android updates.

20210321 Android software update G970USQU5GUBH baseband version applied 20210319 - Earlier updates now require device to NOT be in pocket or under umbrella; overhead coverage interferes with GPS locator. Samsung Health Walking exercise with GPS does not track correctly unless screen display stays active, so screen timeout blocks location. No way to set screen timeout to 0 minutes after setting it except with factory reset. If other apps displayed, GPS locator disrupted until Samsung Health app displayed. Spotify app signal gets disrupted when airplanes fly through air signal. Needs restart of track then make sure Samsung Health displayed for GPS to track correctly.
