Geolocation problem in iOS 6

Hi,

I meet a problem that the I can't get GPS info when using Geolocation api. My app is fine when using iOS 5 device, but our customers update their device to iOS 6 today and geo.setRequestedUpdateInterval never response this time.

Is this a known bug or I should use a new way to get GPS?

It's a very Critical problem for us. Can any one help me? Many thanks
