Device: Android

Cordova version: 7.0.1

I'm using cordova-plugin-geolocation https://www.npmjs.com/package/cordova-plugin-geolocation but with some devices doesn't work. I tried the application with these devices:

  1. Huawei P9 Lite VNS-L31 Android 7.0 ---> work
  2. Huawei P9 Lite VNS-L21 Android 7.0---> work only if i disallow the battery optimization of the application.
  3. Huawei P9 Android 7.0--> doesn't work
  4. One Plus 3 Android 7.1.1 --> work
  5. Samsung S8 Android 7.0 --> work



CODE:

navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(onSuccessPoint, onErrorPoint,{ timeout:10000 });
 var onSuccessPoint = function (position) {
///SUCCESS CODE
}
function onErrorPoint(error) {
//ERROR CODE
}

You app must run in background mode , if your app not white listed under battery optimization your app won't run. use this cordova plugin to white list your app from battery optimization,

Install 

cordova plugin add https://github.com/thomas550i/cordova-plugin-doze-Optimize

Javascript code 

cordova.plugins.DozeOptimize.IsIgnoringBatteryOptimizations(function (responce){
  console.log("IsIgnoringBatteryOptimizations: "+responce);
      if(responce=="false")
      {
        cordova.plugins.DozeOptimize.RequestOptimizations(function (responce){
          console.log(responce);
        }, function (error){
        console.error("BatteryOptimizations Request Error"+error);          
        });
      }
      else
      {
        console.log("Application already Ignoring Battery Optimizations");
      }     
}, function (error){
console.error("IsIgnoringBatteryOptimizations Error"+error);    
});
