In my Service I track my location every X minutes. I Try with 

LocationManager lm=(LocationManager)getApplicationContext().getSystemService(LOCATION_SERVICE);
Criteria criteria = new Criteria();
criteria.setAccuracy(Criteria.ACCURACY_COARSE);

criteria.setAltitudeRequired(false);
criteria.setBearingRequired(false);        
String provider=lm.getBestProvider( criteria, true );
if (provider!=null){

    lm.requestLocationUpdates(provider,5000,1,locationListenerNetwork);
}

Using Network location, and if it's not avaible i try with gps location.

The problem is that when provider is avaible, i try to ask for a location with

lm.requestLocationUpdates(provider,5000,0,locationListenerNetwork);

where LocationListenerNetwork is my LocationListener, but nothing happends, my 

onLocationChanged(Location location)

inside LocationListenerNetwork is never called

If I Use GPS (with ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION permissions) onlocationchanged is called and everything works fine.

This happends only in Galaxy S3 jb (4.1). (correctly setted) Before update, and on other smartphones, everything works fine:

I Tried on

  • Galaxy Nexus 4.2
  • Galaxy Nexus 4.1
  • Nexus S 4.1
  • Galaxy S
  • Galaxy Note

Everywhere my code works fine, but in S3 JB I can't understand how to solve. Another strange thing is that gmaps perfectly tracks position also without gps, so it can't be a device problem.

This is not really an answer, but it might help....

As per this post: Has NETWORK_PROVIDER behavior changed in Android 4.1.1?

I and he had similar problem on Galaxy Nexus - and a reboot fixed the problem.
