Ive noticed when my Android phone gets to be about 2 years old or almost paid off Strava will stop tracking my rides and I have to restart the ride.  I notice that it happens when I take a photo it seems to stop my strava.  I usually have to hit stop and resume ride to make sure im connected. 

The weird thing is its happened to me and my wife with all of our phones that we have had since using Strava   We have Verizon and reception is good.  As soon as we get new phones Strava works perfect.  Any thoughts on why this happens other than a possible scam by cell phone.

Check out this tread regarding Strava stopping the recording when the camera is used.  There looks to be a couple suggestions.  One is to turn off the auto-pause feature.  Another is to adjust the location services setting.  Would be worth looking at the discussion there and seeing if any of those suggestions help fix your issue.
