location not retrieved by geolocator

[sami7568]

geolocation.getCurrentLocation is not working in my flutter application.

i am using geolocator ^6.1.2 compileSdkVersion: 30 minSdkVersion: 21 targetSdkVersion: 30

[afxgroup]

Same here. But with latest version. It is stuck in await Geolocator.getCurrentPosition(); and never returns

[zs-dima]

if i use ACCESS_FILE_LOCATION i can get the location while if i use ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION nothing is returned in the android emulator an it remain stuck in getCurrentPosition().

I have the same issue from 7.0.0 version to 7.0.3 geolocator version

[florissmit1]

Can you provide more information about the device you're using? Be more specific about the issue, by providing your flutter doctor -v and maybe some example code. I must mention that there are known issues with Xiaomi devices.

[zs-dima]

@florissmit1 thanks for reply I have this issue on default Android emulator as well.

geolocator: ^7.0.3

[nikhiysham]

I try set forceAndroidLocationManager to true and its working. Not sure why

Position position = await Geolocator.getCurrentPosition(forceAndroidLocationManager: true);

[zs-dima]

@nikhiysham forceAndroidLocationManager:true does NOT work for my case

[anjanpatel79]

I try set forceAndroidLocationManager to true and its working. Not sure why

Position position = await Geolocator.getCurrentPosition(forceAndroidLocationManager: true);

This is working. Use: Position position = await Geolocator.getCurrentPosition( forceAndroidLocationManager: true, desiredAccuracy: LocationAccuracy.best, );

[florissmit1]

I suggest looking at the Geolocator example application. For me it's working fine on Android emulator / Samsung / Oppo test device using flutter 2.2.1. @zs-dima also, you're using an unstable version of Flutter, can you try using a stable version of Flutter?

@sami7568 @zs-dima can you provide a code snippet of the code you're using to get the currentPosition?

[barbalex]

I have the exact same problem. It worked yesterday or the day before. Today await Geolocator.getCurrentPosition seems to do absolutely nothing. I changed nothing apart from updating flutter_map.

Why was this closed?

[barbalex]

So I saw that this bot seems more intelligent than expected. I will try to give you more information:

derterminePosition.dart:

import 'package:geolocator/geolocator.dart';

determinePosition() async {
  bool serviceEnabled;
  LocationPermission permission;

  // Test if location services are enabled.
  serviceEnabled = await Geolocator.isLocationServiceEnabled();
  if (!serviceEnabled) {
    // Location services are not enabled don't continue
    // accessing the position and request users of the
    // App to enable the location services.
    return Future.error('Location services are disabled.');
  }

  permission = await Geolocator.checkPermission();
  if (permission == LocationPermission.denied) {
    permission = await Geolocator.requestPermission();
    if (permission == LocationPermission.denied) {
      // Permissions are denied, next time you could try
      // requesting permissions again (this is also where
      // Android's shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale
      // returned true. According to Android guidelines
      // your App should show an explanatory UI now.
      return Future.error('Location permissions are denied');
    }
  }

  if (permission == LocationPermission.deniedForever) {
    // Permissions are denied forever, handle appropriately.
    return Future.error(
        'Location permissions are permanently denied, we cannot request permissions.');
  }

  // When we reach here, permissions are granted and we can
  // continue accessing the position of the device.
  // use getPositionStream for updates
  return await Geolocator.getCurrentPosition();
}

Do you need more info?

[florissmit1]

@barbalex Thanks for the extensive information you provided. Your code seems good to me to be honest. Just to be sure, did you add:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />

to your AndroidManifest? And:

<key>NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription</key>
<string>This app needs access to location when open.</string>
<key>NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription</key>
<string>This app needs access to location when in the background.</string>

To your info.plist? Also, are you able to provide your flutter doctor -v and which version of geolocator you're using?

[barbalex]

@florissmit1 Yes I did.

It seems to be related with the (configuration of the?) virtual device used. My usually used one crashed yesterday and I started one I use rarely. Here it does not work. Even though a location is set.

I now wiped all user data from the usual one I use which enabled me to restart my app in it again. And now it works.

So it seems to have nothing to do with my code and neither with flutter-geolocator. Sorry for bugging you.

And thanks a lot for giving us this great tool!

Can you please tell where can i get the app from? I am new into these environments and i have not been able to use geolocator in my emulator in few days and its bugging me a lot. No data is returned by await statement

had the same issue, in my case it's because my device was not connected to the internet

[reschaefer]

I had the same problem and since it doesn't show any errors, to solve it I include the method inside a Future.delayed, I determined a duration, and if there is no response, the application continues working normally

[EmmanuelO11]

Still now resolution for this?

[beamlakTadesse]

I am facing the same issue any resolution?

[SunlightBro]

Reported by user in app that is in production: • EDA71 G (mobile) • 21113B1FCB • android-arm64 • Android 8.1.0 (API 27)

Tested the example app on this exact device, and getCurrentPosition() never returns.

Then did a lot of test with real devices with Android 9 and before:

• EDA71 G (mobile)  • 21113B1FCB         • android-arm64  • Android 8.1.0 (API 27)
• SM G930F (mobile) • 988674424b56494e49 • android-arm64  • Android 8.0.0 (API 26)
• SM G955F (mobile) • ce021712daadea0f02 • android-arm64  • Android 9 (API 28)

[sami7568]

@SunlightBro use geolocation version 8.0.1, and use this code will work now, I have solved it by using this specific version if you are using latest version or older version, await Geolocator.getCurrentLocation() it may be never returns. also use the solution provided by @nikhiysham

[JeroenWeener]

I have tested the newest version of the plugin (9.0.2), using the example application.

• ✅ iPhone 13 emulator (iOS 15.5)
• ❌ Pixel 5 emulator (Android API 33)
• ❌ Motorola Moto G8 plus physical device (Android API 29)

This seems to confirm that Geolocator.getCurrentPosition() is not working on Android devices.

[AliEasy]

Still experiencing this.... This repository is 2 years old

[tyanochkuby]

I have the same issue except that even await Geolocator.isLocationServiceEnabled(); stucks.

No worries, Geolocator.getCurrentPosition() stucks as well

[JeroenWeener]

Today I have tested the example app again (both the example app in geolocator and the example app in geolocator_android). To my surprise, it worked on both iOS and Android.

✅ iPhone 13 emulator (iOS 15.5) ✅ Pixel 5 emulator (Android API 33) ✅ Motorola Moto G8 plus physical device (Android API 29)

It might be a permission issue, where behavior is different depending on the exact permission that is provided by the user (Allow only while using the app vs Ask every time).

[mutairibassam]

@JeroenWeener; thanks for the support.

I want to tell you about my experience while I am using the package which might give you more hints to fix the issue.

First, my use case I want to send user's location every 2 mins in foreground mode and every 15 mins in background mode. getCurrentPosition() is working with fine in foreground mode for both Android and iOS but in background mode always keeps do nothing (waiting for something and never return something at this moment) and keeps adding all the requests once I bring the application to foreground starts triggering all the pending requests at the same time based on last location. This is happening for both Android and iOS.

I switched to use getLastKnownPosition() but always return the same last position which make it pointless for my use case.

below is my configuration:

[tyanochkuby]

Oh yeah. I have pretty much the same issue.. I want to send notification with weather forecast (so obviously I do this task in the background and I need to know user's location). And it's kinda shameful I have to 'lie' to the user that I'm using his location while I am not. Does anyone know what am I supposed to do in this case?

It seems to work fine on my Android 13 device too. However, we could inform the user when he has switched off the google location service with the same Dialog as we do with the getCurrentPosition() call.

have the same problem, " await Geolocator.getCurrentPosition(); " dont return Position, with mobile from OPPO PEMM20， also dont callback from "Geolocator.getPositionStream". and i also find that some OPPO device did not work while 5G been open

Seeing this problem on a couple of different devices:

• OPPO
• Galaxy A33, A32, Tab S5e, A7,
• Motorola G 5S
• Huawei P Smart Z
• Nokia C2 2nd Edition

This is our piece of code.

@override
  Future<LocationTrackingData> getLocation({bool forceRefresh = false, bool useTimeout = true}) async {
    if (!forceRefresh) {
      try {
        if (_hasMergedCurrentPositionStream) return _currentPositionStream.first;
      } catch (e) {
        logger.debug('Failed to get the current location from stream: $e - falling back to getCurrentPosition.');
      }
    }
    Position? position;
    try {
      position = await Geolocator.getCurrentPosition(
        timeLimit: useTimeout ? ThemeDurations.locationFetchTimeout() : null,
      );
    } catch (e) {
      logger.debug('Failed to get current location: $e - falling back to last known location.');
      position = await Geolocator.getLastKnownPosition();
    }

    if (position == null) throw ArgumentError('No location found');
    final location = _getLocationFromPosition(position);
    _currentPositionStream.add(location);
    return location;
  }

Resulting in an ArgumentError

We're now trying to solve this by adding a fallback on the legacy location manager

/// Force the user to fetch the location from the Android Location Manager
    if (position == null && Platform.isAndroid) {
      try {
        position = await Geolocator.getCurrentPosition(
          timeLimit: useTimeout ? ThemeDurations.locationFetchTimeout() : null,
          forceAndroidLocationManager: true,
        );
      } catch (e) {
        logger.debug('Failed to force get current location: $e - falling back to force last known location.');
        position = await Geolocator.getLastKnownPosition(forceAndroidLocationManager: true);
      }
    }

I'll update my response if tests with physical devices give more insights.

have the same problem on physical xioami mi t10,on emulator works without any problems

worked on phisical device after adding it to AndroidManifext.xml(don`t works only with ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION and ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_LOCATION_EXTRA_COMMANDS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permissio.WAKE_LOCK" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.hardware.location.gps" /> 

• geolocator: ^8.0.1

@ZhupaninGit Thanks it worked on my VIVO and XIAOMI.

[aly7yaNasser]

using latest version of geolocator and flutter but can,t get the location after applying this code 'await Geolocator.getCurrentPosition(); '

Thank for this notice it was helpful

[Rajaotix]

I got this issue when I have no internet. But When I put on my internet first then launch getCurrentPosition() it works. But I need to get the device pure location .. someone know how to do that ?Thanks

[alladyaditi]

i am currently facing the same issue with the geolocator version 12.0.0? any body else having the same issue?

[aly7yaNasser]

Use Geolocator.getCurrentPosition(). Then Instead of await Geolocator.getCurrentPosition();
