@pichlo By the way the altitude is nan this means the position doesn't come from the gps.

About the instances I don't know I will try to run your script on the N900 with alarmed, no clue why it couldn't terminate.

Is it worth to try in another script after some timout.
Code:
kill -SIGTERM $(pidof gpscon)
Don't know if you are able to read the output.

It could be that the value will not change because it is a last known value (it shouldn't take it), or the value comes from a not very accurate positioning method. However the N900 and the N950 act different because of different qtmobility. Maybe Jolla also act different.

P.S.: Maybe the first value is the lastknown value could be a bug in the last version, I will look into the source code.
