Location Marker Erratic (Android)

Hi All, I'm running a Samsung Galaxy S2 Tab 9.7. When using Gaia Premium, the Location Marker (spearhead) is very erratic/wobbly while following the route. It follows the route just fine, but the marker just keeps spinning. I've tried zooming in/out and to no avail. I also went through location setting accuracy in the setting menu on the tablet and that didn't change anything either. I use a ram mount to hold the tablet in place in the vehicle. Any ideas on what's causing this? Thank you in advance for all your help/suggestions.

  I upvoted this. Please also see

  which is related to this issue.

  Perhaps our phones and tablets are not powerful enough to keep up with the demands of the app?

  I plan to do speed tests to see if this is related to speed or not...right now, I seem to recall that even at small speeds...walking...the location marker does not point in the correct direction. I get the same behaviour on my SigmaSport bike GPS, but not on any of my dedicated GPSRs. I'm running a Note 4 and a P580.

  I looked on my Note 4, and do not see "location setting accuracy"
