If you're using the emulator, then you have to manually trigger GPS events using the emulator UI. On devices, there are many reasons why you may not be receiving GPS updates. If you're using course mode (high accuracy disabled), then you may need to actually travel a significant distance before receiving an update. If you're using high accuracy, then your environment is the biggest factor. Being inside a large concrete office building for example hinders the phone's ability to communicate with the GPS satellites. Ensuring the phone has A-GPS features enabled (wifi/bluetooth/mobile network) assistance will help reduce reliance on the GPS satellites. These settings will vary by device, but I don't think I've seen a modern phone without these features. Do note that these are user settings in the OS, and not controlled by the app. This issue doesn't include our issue template so I'll be closing this issue.
