[jira] [Created] (CB-12308) Unable to get gps position

Placido Curro created CB-12308:
----------------------------------

             Summary: Unable to get gps position
                 Key: CB-12308
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-12308
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Plugin Geolocation
    Affects Versions: 6.4.0
         Environment: Android 5.1
            Reporter: Placido Curro
            Priority: Critical


Hello,
on my Android mobile phone, a Meizu M3s Android 5.1, gps plugin doesn't work very well.

I have developed a basic app with just the gps plugin and a button to get the current gps position. I run it, and when I push the button to get current position, I get the 'on error' callback with timeout error.
Of course, the app has access to gps and global gps setting is on.

If I turn the mobile off and on, then the app works and I get the position. But, if I put the mobile in stand-by and I leave it for a while (10 minutes for example), then the app stops working and and gps requests expire per timeout.

Enableaccuracy, timeout and age options doesn't affect the bug. I experience the same problem, even if a try to reduce or to increase timeout and age, or set EnableAccuracy true or false.

Thanks for your attention.
Regards, plco.

P.S. Later, I have added the cordova-plugin-mauron85-background-geolocation plugin and while the cordova gps plugin still expires per timeout, this one manages to get the current gps position.
