Did you install the updated SDK (NOT update via B4A SDK Manager)? https://www.b4x.com/b4a.html

Are you trying to turn on/off the GPS directly with some library like ToggleLibrary?
I think it's no longer possible due to google restrictions

Maybe with the new version of B4A you've updated the manifest?

ToggleLibrary was there I remove the library which didn't give me any errors but when I run the program I still get the same error

Uncaught translation error: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: already added: Lxtremelyvirtualstudio/xvs/Tracked/TurnGPS;

Looking in the libraries I am using TurnGPS which is obviously the problem remove the entries to this and re-instated ToggleLibrary and the app compiles okay now but when run I can't get my Lat and Long location

It's probably better you show your code or upload a small project showing the error.

Do you have some widget or try to check or modify the GPS status in some way?

It looks like you have a duplicated type definition called TurnGPS.

Haven't got a clue why it was working and then wasn't, I've removed the only link to the library turnGPS, and to a Type GPSLocation entry in the Process Globals, didn't expect it to work but it does

Could it have something to do with my phone settings? I haven't got a clue but at least it's working,

Thanks for the input and pointing me in the direction that got it working,

You cannot turn on GPS programmatically.

The best you can do, which is quite good: FusedLocationProvider + Resolution Dialog
