Status: Fixed in Unity 5.6.0
I did download 5.6.0b6, but still not working.
Do I need to wait till 5.6.0 beta will be finished or where i can download 5.6.0?

We are also going to make a project around using GPS and nothing is working. The app keep crashing on every update.

Congrats folks. This is now the fourth highest issue of all time. Twenty-one votes until it reaches number one.
The folks at Unity do know this is an issue and are actively working on it. It's just a much tougher problem than they were expecting. We got confirmation that they're working on it back on January 24th, but no new news since then: https://forum.unity3d.com/threads/5-5-released.443545/page-4#post-2932911

Broken in Unity 5.6.0b4 (64-bit), it does not crash immediately though. It crashes after I want to read the location values.
