Return blank location packet for ping/manual location even though there is no location or accuracy is poor about android HOT 6 OPEN

In 2.4.12, the app will eventually stale out and get stuck with "no locations" in the log and never call home. If it did report something, you could send back a restart command to address this.

I'd want to wait and see how upcoming 2.5 behaves. The location reporting should hopefully become more reliable.

What this addresses is the ability for the app to pull back configurations are indicate that it is still alive. The ping message is create, but it gets suppressed if the phone is misconfigured or gets bunged up.
