No as not all of the platforms allow you to make a distinction between the
WiFi locations and the GPS, so on platforms that do (like Android) we're
hiding the details from you.
The numbers you are seeing after it has lost its signal are most likely
from the wifi location system, you can filter out
Thanks for the fast response Eric :)
Is there anyway to tell when the GPS has lost reception after a successful
fix?
This is what I'm experiencing:
1) The GPS icon stops flashing indicating a fix.
2) PositionChanged fires as I would expect and all the values from
PositionEventArgs.Position look
Hi Derek,
Be sure that you also listen for Geolocator.PositionError, add a handler
for that and make sure you're not getting any errors.
You're correct that GetPositionAsync is for one-off requests.

A quick question about the geolocation API - I couldn't find any docs :)
I'm grabbing GPS positions in a service using this code:
geolocator = new Geolocator (this) { DesiredAccuracy = 50 };
if (!geolocator.IsGeolocationEnabled)
return;
geolocator.PositionChanged += gps_LocationChange
With MonoTouch and Mono for Android, you can already share a huge portion
of your code across iOS, Android and Windows Phone. There is, however, this
middle ground of APIs that are present in all three platforms, but you
can't share your code that utilizes them. You currently have to write
separate
