Hello,

Can any buddy help to resolve the issue when app kill from background (by 
swipe from recent) then i am not getting any location update? This is the 
problem i am facing in Kitkat and Lollipop version of android.

I am using GoogleApiClient for location update. Also i am using in service 
for get the location.

Thanks,

Ajay
