Location update event not fired

[panteparak]

I have just set up on my Android Emulator (Genymotion) and tried changing GPS location from command line tool as well from provided Genymotion GUI but the location doesn't seem to be updated. Did i missed config something?

BackgroundGeolocation.configure({
  desiredAccuracy: 0,
  stationaryRadius: 30,
  debug: true,
  distanceFilter: 30,
  startOnBoot: true,
  interval: 1000,
  notificationTitle: "Location Service",
  syncThreshold: 1,
  maxLocations: 1,
  locationProvider: 1,
  fastestInterval: 1000,
  activitiesInterval: 1000,
  stopOnStillActivity: true
});

BackgroundGeolocation.on('location', (location) => {
  console.log("Callback -> Lat: " + location.latitude + ", Long: " + location.longtitude)
  Actions.sendLocation(location);
});

BackgroundGeolocation.on('error', (error) => {
  console.log('[ERROR] BackgroundGeolocation error:', error);
});

BackgroundGeolocation.start(() => {
  console.log('[DEBUG] BackgroundGeolocation started successfully');
});

I have checked device log, only the start message came up

Please test on a real device.

@mauron85 Sure, I'll test on a device and get back to you if the problem continues.

This is something strange with Genymotion. When I have just discovered this plugin it worked. However about a week ago I have noticed that it stopped working and I can't explain why. So I have only the first location and no updates as well.

@priezz read my answer regarding genymotion. it is probably the same thing.

Same issue with android 6.0 API 23. Location update not firing.
