Romain Garrigues commented on CB-5977:
--------------------------------------
I think this is not a good idea to remove native GPS support on Android devices.
Currently it maybe has better performances, but we don't know about the
future...
And if its just a performance issue, users can choose themselves on JS side if
they want to use native support or HTML5 one. And android platform stay
consistent with other ones on geolocation management.
> Deprecate Android Geolocation plugin

> Key: CB-5977
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5977
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Android, Plugin Geolocation
> Reporter: Mike Billau
> Assignee: Joe Bowser
> Fix For: 3.5.0
>
>
> Lets deprecate the Geolocation plugin on Android since the Web Geolocation
> works just as well as our implementation. See
> http://markmail.org/message/ketdgrzm2dcpxfo2 for further discussion.
> We need to keep the config.xml in order to continue adding the location
> permissions. We should zero out the rest of the code since it shouldn't be
> used.
