Not able to get the geolocation in Android emulator

I'm doing a small sample app which displays latitude and longitude in a popup when i click on the button here is my code

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8" />
    <title>BlankCordovaApp1</title>

    <link href="css/index.css" rel="stylesheet" />

    <script src="cordova.js"></script>
    <script src="scripts/platformOverrides.js"></script>
    <script src="scripts/index.js"></script>

    <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
        var alertmsg = function (position) {
            var msg = 'Latitude: ' + position.coords.latitude + '<br />' +
                'Longitude: ' + position.coords.longitude + '<br />'
            navigator.notification.alert(msg);
        }
        function geoLocation() {
            navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(alertmsg)
        }
    </script>
</head>
<body>
    <input type="button" id="btnClick" onclick="geoLocation()" value="click" />
</body>
</html>

It is working in Ripple emulator But it is not working in Android emulator and Genymotion

Solution

  • I figured out the problem. If i use this code it is working fine

    navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(alertmsg, onError, { timeout: 30000, enableHighAccuracy: true });

    It is working in all emulators(Ripple,Android,Genymotion)
