I'm trying to get a GPS location using the Location package (Flutter 2.8).
When I'm using the (real) phone, it works with no problems.
However, on the (Android) emulator, a call to:
_currentLocation = await _location.getLocation();
never returns. The function just gets stuck and does not go to the next line.
I did all the needed changes to AndroidManifest.xml and I have all the permissions.
Any idea why?
Thanks a lot!

- Go to the emulator settings (usually three dots on the control panel of the emulator)
- Then go to the
Location
tab - Select a location on map and save it then select it and set it as
your location
