In my bq Aquaris E4.5 Ubuntu Edition with Ubuntu 15.04 (r296) I have
done these tests:
A. uNav running alone:
- A few times it has arrived to a state of not receiving new positions. I
think this is due to not having access to AGPS because the network is down or
the phone has not access to a network.
B. uNav and SensorsStatus running at the same time:
- With uNav on the foreground and SensorsStatus on the background, after a
while uNav arrives to a state of not receiving new positions.
- Changing to SensorsStatus it initially doesn't show any position and
immediately it receives new positions.
- Changing to uNav it starts again to receive new positions and after a
while it stops receiving new positions.
- If you change again to SensorsStatus and after that to uNav, it starts
again to receive new positions.
- If you kill SensorsStatus uNav receives new positions and it works well.
C. uNav and HERE Maps running at the same time:
- You can reproduce the same described in B with these two apps.
D. uNav and Google maps (in the browser) running at the same time:
- If you permit to Google maps to access to your location you can
reproduce the same described in B with these two apps.
- If you do not permit access to your location uNav gets positions as
expected.
I hope this to be useful to resolve this bug.

Title:
Two GPS compatible apps conflict and loose GPS
Status in Canonical System Image:
Incomplete
Status in location-service package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Meizu MX4 with Ubuntu 15.04 r2
1. run OSMscout (for example)
2. drive/cycle a distance to confirm that GPS tracking is working fine
3. run the camera app (for example)
4. take a few photos (they'll be tagged with GPS info)
5. switch to OSMscout
6. drive/cycle and OSM will now not update from GPS
Haven't tested this with other apps as yet, but it seems that one app
will take control of the GPS and not hand it back. (For want of a
better explanation.)
