I haven't seen the issues with concurrent GPS access that you describe.
nevertheless you may want to anticipate a situation when another program is
currently actively using the GPS. In such a case you could ask the passive

I hoping this was fixed along the way and the issue not updated. I had to
drop a part of an internal application for a company because of this bug.
And like lbendlin said, you could just check the last known and see if it
was recent enough to use.

use the requestLocationUpdates().
See this bug I logged:

I'm not sure if that was a hardware driver or software, but I know you can
reproduce that on plenty of
That's exactly what I wanted to know, thanks a lot!
