[Bug]: TimeoutException after 0:00:10.000000: Future not completed

[jenilAipxperts]

Please check the following before submitting a new issue.

• I have searched the existing issues.
• I have carefully read the documentation and verified I have added the required platform-specific configuration.

Please select affected platform(s)

• Android
• iOS
• Linux
• macOS
• Web
• Windows

Steps to reproduce

Use the getCurrentPosition method with the following code:
userPositionData = await Geolocator.getCurrentPosition(
locationSettings: LocationSettings(
accuracy: LocationAccuracy.high,
distanceFilter: 10,
timeLimit: const Duration(seconds: 10),
));

I don't want a limit I want to connect the user's location in my app but on an Android Redmi(Android 13) device it will not get the user's current location

Expected results

want to connect in every device

Actual results

I do not want to timeout my app content force location tracking so for this issue my app was stuck

Code sample

userPositionData = await Geolocator.getCurrentPosition(
locationSettings: LocationSettings(
accuracy: LocationAccuracy.high,
distanceFilter: 10,
timeLimit: const Duration(seconds: 10),
));

I got this error in my app. The future has not been completed for a long time. If you fix the error, let me know.

temporary solution
the error was in the ios simulator. I changed simulator location settings to custom location value and error fixed.

I’m experiencing the same issue when running on the iOS simulator. The location request doesn't seem to work as expected. Has anyone found a workaround or a potential fix for this?

Hello @br-programmer
In iOS, I’m not facing any issues. Please verify it on a real device.

position = await _geolocatorPlatform .getCurrentPosition( locationSettings: const LocationSettings(timeLimit: Duration(seconds: 10))) .catchError((e) { });

Hi,I also had this problem on my android test machine, my realMe phone model: RMX 3357, android version: 13. It doesn't work.
Also my vivo Y10, android version: 11, it doesn't work either.
But it does work on the iOS.
Please help to look at this question, because I have the same situation as the author of this question, thank you.

@jenilAipxperts,

Please play around with the location settings, if you are testing indoor or outside would also generate different results. Try to lower the accuracy and distance filter first.

Kind regards,

@TimHoogstrate

Same issue.

Also can not get position with await Geolocator.getCurrentPosition().
Without timeLimit, await this means forever waiting.
Im sure location service and permissions went well, and other app can locate my position immeditly.
iOS works.

mee too

After some test, GMS phone can't get position in China, after I solved "network connection" problem, it works.

经过一番测试，GMS手机在中国无法定位，解决“网络连接”问题后，就可以了。

这个是怎么解决的呢，我测试过华为、小米、还有其它机型，貌似只要没有Google服务的都不行

I have the same situation as the author of this question

[Aliffter]

I have the same issue.
On devices such as iPhone, Xiaomi, and Huawei, Geolocator.getCurrentPosition can return the longitude and latitude normally.
But on Vivo devices, the longitude and latitude cannot be obtained.

解决了吗？

[longzhenqi]

这是因为geo用的谷歌地图，国内访问不了，你试试翻墙看看，翻墙应该是没有问题的。 猫吃小鱼干 ***@***.***

@langyuxiansheng 解决了吗？

没有 解决不了。。。 安卓端，暂时用的是百度地图的定位SDK来处理的。

但是正常用户谁会去翻墙呀。。。 大部分使用APP的用户可能都是普通用户，特别是国内的。
