You need to get out in the field and move

on iOS, background tracking won't be engaged until you travel about 2-3 city blocks, so go for a walk or car-ride (or use the Simulator with Debug->Location->City Drive)
Android is much quicker detecting movements; typically several meters of walking will do it.

When in doubt, remove & re-install the plugin and platform

// Remove & re-add the plugin
$ cordova plugin remove com.transistorsoft.cordova.background-geolocation
$ cordova plugin add [email protected]:christocracy/cordova-background-geolocation.git

// Remove, re-add and re-build your platform
$ cordova platform remove ios
$ cordova platform add ios
$ cordova build ios
