Question by LT23Live · Aug 06, 2016 at 05:05 AM · androidinputlocationgps

Unity Input.location is not updating on Android - Galaxy Note 4

I have been trying to detect walking through the GPS location of my galaxy note 4. I am using Input.location to gather the latitude and longitude. My issue is that it only updates on initialization. It never updates again except for random times.

 IEnumerator GetLocation ()
     {
 
         if (Input.location.status == LocationServiceStatus.Stopped) {
             if (!Input.location.isEnabledByUser) {
                 yield break;
             }
             // Start service before querying location
             Input.location.Start (gpsAccuracy, gpsUpdateInterval);
         }
 
         while (Input.location.status != LocationServiceStatus.Running) {
             audio.PlayOneShot (dingTone);
             yield return new WaitForSeconds (1f);
 
         }
 
         if (Input.location.status == LocationServiceStatus.Failed) {
             tm.text = "Location Has Failed";
         }
 
         if (Input.location.status == LocationServiceStatus.Running) {
             lastPosition = currentPosition;
             yield return new WaitForSeconds (0.01f);
             currentPosition = new Vector3 (Input.location.lastData.longitude,
                 0,
                 Input.location.lastData.latitude);
             hasLocation = true;
 
         }
         StartCoroutine (GetLocation ());
 
     }

I have set: gpsAccuracy = 1; gpsUpdateInterval = 1;

This is the code I call on start if gps is toggled. I have run numerous checks. It is looping properly, but no matter where I move, it won't update. I have noticed it will have to reset the GPS if I go to the home screen, then back into the app, the GPS updates immediately. Probably because it has to reconfigure.

So after doing more research, it didn't work for me because my compass was off. Enable it with,

Input.compass.enabled = true;

The project is working like a charm.
