I have search for similar threads. Didn't find any solutions. I have a
working app, but the geolocation does not work in Android. From what I'm
reading iOS 4 and Android 2+ should be able to use navigator.geolocation .
The script I implemented is the one below taken from the Google Maps v3 API.
It works in iOS, and Chrome/Safari/Webkit on the desktop. For some reason it
does not appear to work on Android phones (Tested 3 so far).
// Try W3C Geolocation (Preferred)
if(navigator.geolocation) {
browserSupportFlag = true;
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(position) {
initialLocation = new
google.maps.LatLng(position.coords.latitude,position.coords.longitude);
map.setCenter(initialLocation);
}, function() {
handleNoGeolocation(browserSupportFlag);
});
// Try Google Gears Geolocation
} else if (google.gears) {
browserSupportFlag = true;
var geo = google.gears.factory.create('beta.geolocation');
geo.getCurrentPosition(function(position) {
initialLocation = new
google.maps.LatLng(position.latitude,position.longitude);
map.setCenter(initialLocation);
}, function() {
handleNoGeoLocation(browserSupportFlag);
});
// Browser doesn't support Geolocation
} else {
browserSupportFlag = false;
handleNoGeolocation(browserSupportFlag);
}
