IMO, if that's required to get a GPS fix, something is broken in the
system. I understand that without AGPS we can't be faster with getting
a fix, however, "you have to keep the screen active, unlocked and the
app in the foreground" really can't be the alternative. Do we have a
bug report about this already?
