VinceRafale updated CB-5760:
----------------------------
Description:
Even after following steps here
http://docs.phonegap.com/en/3.1.0/cordova_geolocation_geolocation.md.html#Geolocation,
I never get a GPS fix (Error Code 3, Position retrieval timed out).
# cordova plugin add org.apache.cordova.geolocation
# cordova plugin ls
[ 'org.apache.cordova.geolocation' ]
in AndroidManifest.xml
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission
android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_LOCATION_EXTRA_COMMANDS" />
in app/res/xml/config.xml
<feature name="Geolocation">
<param name="android-package"
value="org.apache.cordova.geolocation.GeoBroker" />
</feature>
It seems that downgrading to 2.9 does the trick.
Please note that with cordova 3.1 and higher geolocation works in genymotion
(when gps enabled) but not on a real device.
So fake positions are correctly interpreted.
Keeping the same html/js code, if the geolocation plugin is removed from the
project (cordova plugin rm org.apache.cordova.geolocation), then the app uses
the webview integrated geolocation.... and then geolocation works as expected.
As a reference... other people also complain of similar issues
