hi,

ok, but where run the following code show a Application Closed:
Py_num KERN-EXEC 0

import positioning
import socket
import appuifw
import time
import e32
import thread
import sysinfo


def startTracking():
    print "2"
    #positioning.set_requestors([{"type":"service", "format":"application","data":"WifeTracker"}])
    print "3"
    positioning.position(course=1,satellites=1, callback = locationCallback)
    print "print positioning.position()"
    print "4"

def testThread():
   global lock
   e32.ao_sleep(5)  
   startTracking()
   lock.signal()    
     
def locationCallback(event):
    lock = thread.allocate_lock()
    e32.ao_sleep(1)
    position = event['position']
    course = event['course']
    satellites=event['satellites']
    posTuple = (position['latitude'], position['longitude'],position['altitude'])
    velocidad = course['speed']
    rumbo = course['heading']
    date = satellites['time']
    la,lo,al = posTuple
    lock.release()
    e32.ao_sleep(10)
    lat = '>R4'+','+str("%.5f"%la)+','+str("%.5f"%lo)+','+str("%.5f"%velocidad)+','+str("%.5f"%rumbo)
        

lock = e32.Ao_lock()
thread.start_new_thread(testThread,())
lock.wait()

Have you updated to the latest PyS60, version 1.4.5? It has some bugfixes concerning the positioning module:

* The positioning module has been made safe to use from several threads.
