Ryan Archer commented on CB-6529:
---------------------------------
Also I should mention that Geolocation call never works successfully the first
time on my testing. The whole page/screen/view needs to be (force) refreshed
for the function call to work successfully. Right now I have a timeOut going to
onError which then calls the refresh. Makes the page look a bit broken.
> Cordova geolocation API issue

> Hi everyone! Shazron has recommended I post the issue I am experiencing here.
> I am using Cordova 3.4 and calling Geolocation API.
> It is never successful the first time around, it always times out throws
> onError and I have to refresh the whole page for it to work the second time
> around. I am not calling geolocation on the onDeviceReady as I am calling the
> API on a separate view (multi page app with JQM) and also Google Maps API. If
> I call external scripts (google maps) on the first load, Apple App store will
> be sure to reject my app. Here is my stackoverflow post on it:
> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23292335/why-does-phonegap-geolocation-onsuccess-never-fires-the-first-time-around
>
> I really hope there is something missing here and I’ve forgot to implement it
> or something. I'm not the only one with the problem. It's happening on
> Android environment too. I hope there is a way we can make it more reliable
> and not rely on a refresh action.
