I made a simple location service using Fused location, i test with a real device and with Genymotion's android virtual device.
The iterval for getting the locations are 5 seconds.
On a real device it is works nicely, the interval is almost exactly 5 seconds, check log: (onLC is for OnLocationChanged)

On Genymotions virtual device the interval is like 1 second:

Code for initalizing location requests:
mLocationRequest = new LocationRequest();
mLocationRequest.setInterval(5000);
mLocationRequest.setPriority(LocationRequest.PRIORITY_HIGH_ACCURACY);
Can anybody help me whats happening here?
Simply adding mLocationRequest.setFastestInterval(5000);did the trick, now Genymotion's Virtual Device also requesting location updates in a 5 seconds interval.
