Joe Bowser resolved CB-9424.
----------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Cordova's Geolocation plugin only turns on Geolocation on the WebView, it does
not provide any additional functionality. This is a problem with the Chromium
implementation of Geolocation, and is not something that we can fix.
I would recommend either upgrading your System WebView or using the Crosswalk
engine and seeing if that resolves your issue.
> Speed is “null” with geolocation plugin on Android 5+
> -----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-9424
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-9424
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Android, Plugin Geolocation
> Environment: Samsung Galaxy S4 (A5.0.1), Nexus 5 (A5.1.1), LG G3
> Stylus D690 (A5.0.2).
> Reporter: Anton Trutnev
>
> “Speed” value is always “null” in Android 5+. We use these:
> • Core: Cordova - 5.1.1
> • Platform: Cordova-Android 4.0.2
> • Plugin version: 1.0.1
> • Devices: Samsung Galaxy S4 (A5.0.1), Nexus 5 (A5.1.1), LG G3 Stylus
> D690 (A5.0.2).
> After updating few of our test devices to Android 5, “Speed” value from the
> plugin is always “null”. Works fine on Android 4 and iOS though. We tried
> both getCurrentPosition and watchPosition – no luck. HighAccuracy is “true”.
> No matter what we try, we always receive speed as “null”. We had to implement
> workaround for Android 5 using getCurrentPosition (instead of perfectly
> working watchPosition for other OSes), which in many times results in
> calculating speed for some intervals as up to 400 km/h, while calculating
> more or less accurate speed overall.
> Are there any permissions for Android 5 we are missing? What can we do to
> resolve this issue? We’d like to use one code for all platforms as it should
> be, and keep using watchPosition as it works good. Any suggestions? Is this a
> known issue?
> On a related note: are there any known bugs/issues for Cordova with Galaxy
> devices in general? Thanks!
