Along with the above trip object, you need to pass an additional parameter for trackingMode which is optional and defaults to active tracking mode.

                    @Override
                    public void onSuccess(RoamTripResponse response) {
                       //get trip details
                    }

                    @Override
                    public void onError(Error error) {
                       //get error details
                    }
                });

To start a quick trip in custom tracking mode, refer to the following code snippet block.

RoamTrackingMode roamTrackingMode = new RoamTrackingMode.Builder(distanceFilter, stopDuration)
                        .setDesiredAccuracy(RoamTrackingMode.DesiredAccuracy.HIGH)
                        .build();

Roam.startTrip(trip, roamTrackingMode, new RoamTripCallback() {
                    @Override
                    public void onSuccess(RoamTripResponse response) {
                       //get trip details
                    }

                    @Override
                    public void onError(Error error) {
                       //get error details
