Details

(Whiteboard: [Flatfish])

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:31.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/31.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20140715214327

Steps to reproduce:

Open an URL that uses geolocation on Flatfish device. For example http://html5demos.com/geo
Accept to grant access to geolocation
After a few seconds, it should display your position on a map (based on your IP address).
Now reload the page


Actual results:

Geolocation fails : it never gives the position
If you reboot the device and try again the same URL : it works again (but only the first time)


Expected results:

Geolocation should work even if it's not the first time you use it.

Tested on FxOS 2.1.0.0-prerelease build 20140626015928, Flatfish device
OS: All → Gonk (Firefox OS)
Hardware: All → ARM
Whiteboard: [Flatfish]
Is Geolocation also turned on in the settings while doing this?
Yes, Geolocation is turned on in the settings.
The geolocation icon appears in the top-right of the screen when used by the website.
I tested only indoor : the device could not see any satellite
