Bakground Location Fetching not working

Background location fetching ends after 1 or 2 minutes. It does not turn the GPs on, or the tracking unless i go to the app screen again and again. It showing the ‘Exit message’ toas in 1- 2 minutes.

Context

Expected Behavior

It should continue work in the background, even if i turned off the screen, until i stops background tracking.

Actual Behavior

It shows the background tracking info even though the app is in foreground. It continue to show the toast messages after 1 minute till i exit from the app screen. After that most of the time it says stationary exit. The GPS signal is no longer in the navbar of my device.

Many others are having the same problem as well. This really sucks.

Have you tried any other provider than DISTANCE_FILTER? Try new RAW_PROVIDER, so we can isolate it to specific provider or plugin issue.
