getLocation() never return if user don't accept to use Google location service

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug On Android, when user is prompted to enable Google location service, if say “No Thanks”, the getLocation method hangs and never return. No error is throw.

Expected behavior Must return the location or some error if it’s not possible.

Tested on:

Android, API Level 28, simulator and Moto G device
iOS, Version 12, simulator and real device (SE). Works fine

Additional logs

There’s just one log that would indicate something…

W/System  (15921): A resource failed to call release.

Workaround:

bool getloc = false;
if (await _location.serviceEnabled()) {
  getloc = true;
} else {
  getloc = await _location.requestService();
}
if (getloc) {
  currentLocation = await _location.getLocation();
}
