[Bug 1387708] Re: [TOPBLOCKER] Location services not getting location

 

> 1) when gps interface is started, start function never returns. Even
if gps stack fails to initialise, it should at least return. Or in other
> case location service needs to initialise providers asynchronously to
prevent one misbehaving provider taking whole service down. > Ideally
both should be done, with priority on gps stack always returning from
start. Thomas any opinion here?

Bug description:
  Failing to get location fix from application.
  Neither network based nor gps location works.
  Bug has now been seen on 3 phones with and without SIM installed.
  HERE service seems to be running, but no reasonable location is reported.
  GPS is failing to get fix, tested with phone placed for 2 hours outside.

  On two of those phones location was working fine, but with OTA update to ~135 stopped working.
  hard to guess working image but somewhere around 129~131

  
  Problem is now reproducible on RTM release 137
