---------------------------------------

[~tss], are you still experiencing the issue? Could you please specify environment you're using - is that a Cordova CLI project or VS project, created with Tools for Apache Cordova?

> After updating to the latest Cordova versions (cordova-cli 6.0.0, cordova-windows 4.3.1, cordova-plugin-geolocation 2.1.0), the location capability is missing from the appxmanifest file.
> In the platforms/windows folder, the file "package.windows.appxmanifest" contains the following region:
> <Capabilities>
>   <Capability Name="internetClient" />
>   <DeviceCapability Name="location" />
> </Capabilities>
> The file "package.phone.appxmanifest", which seems to be relevant when building for the ARM platform, is missing the location entry:
> <Capabilities>
>   <Capability Name="internetClientServer" />
> </Capabilities>
> I don't know whether this is a bug in the geolocation plugin (which should add the permission) or in the windows platform. I was able to fix the problem for me by extending the plugin.xml of the geolocation plugin and adding:
> <config-file target="package.phone.appxmanifest" parent="/Package/Capabilities">
>     <DeviceCapability Name="location" />
> </config-file>
> This seems to be a bug because the existing extra with target="package.appxmanifest" works for the file package.windows.appxmanifest but not for package.phone.appxmanifest.
> Edit: The build target was "Windows Phone (Universal)" from Visual Studio 2015, which results in creating an app package with the following name: "CordovaApp.Phone_<version>_arm.appxupload
