The browser does not start the location service at all. The Here apps
timeout period is just too short, Google Maps default timeout value
while waiting for a location update is significantly larger. With that,
you are seeing a timing artifact here.

Title:
location service appears not to start occasionally
Status in location-service package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
ubuntu-touch/ubuntu-rtm/14.09-proposed #258 (krillin)
Bootstrap your device, so you walk through the welcome wizard. Be sure
to accept the additional check box for HERE services.
Open system settings/location. Observe that the location settings do
not include here. select the here option before moving on.
Open Here app, and observe that it can't get your location, even when
you press the 'move to location' circle bottom left.
Open the browser, and go to maps.google.com. After accepting the
location access prompt, observe that the browser obtains a location.
Now return to the here app, and see that the location is now working.
Expectation:
It should not require the browser to start up the location service.
Here should be able to do this itself.
It is not clear to me if the inconsistency in the system-settings
(with the wizard selection) is the cause of this bug, or a separate
bug.
Reproducibility: rare.
