locationmanager

I am writing an Android app that returns longitude and latitude, however location holds a Null value. Please see if you can see why, Its been bugging me all day. Code below: public class example extends Activity { public static double latitude; public static double longitude; LocationManager lm; LocationListener ll; Location location; /** Called when the activity is first created. */ @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.questions); lm = (LocationManager)getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE); ll = new

I am using Significant location services in my app. If my app killed by system or force close by user, using event of Significant location change services I am sending location data to my server,in iOS 6. In iOS6 my app sends data to server after force close also. But in iOS 7 I am not getting this significant location change event. Legoless As iOS 7 SDK is not under NDA anymore, I'm posting the answer here, for the sake of completion. As mentioned in answers here: Monitoring regions but location icon disappears when app is killed iOS 7 does not allow significant location changes in background

We have an app that upon user action tries to get a location fix. It listens both on GPS and network and has a time/accuracy based decision matrix to determine when to stop listening and what fix to return. We have noticed, on occasion, a very strange behaviour. We use the classic way to see how old the fix is, like so: long age = now - newLocation.getTime(); if(age >= prefs.getLocationMaxAge()){ Log.d(TAG, "location too old."); return; } But sometimes, the location.getTime returned from the OS has an age of perhaps 15-20 seconds, according to the returned timestamp, although we can tell for

I'm developing an Android application; this App needs to send periodically (every 10 minutes) the current position (coordenates) to a web service. But ... I'm a little confused about the more correct way (and friendlier to the device battery) to do that. I read this answer and her method _getLocation() looks well; but I don't know whether that method could get the availability of the location I need; total availability... I would like, if the location is not available using GSM / WIFI, application choose the GPS method. Is that what makes this method? private void _getLocation() { // Get the

I am writing a code that brings current location but it is not giving me the location because it never calls onLocationChanged() .Is there any way to find the location. mobileLocation is coming 0 for this case, so the execution goes to the else block. My code is public class FindLocation { private LocationManager locManager; private LocationListener locListener; private Location mobileLocation; private String provider; public FindLocation(Context ctx){ locManager = (LocationManager) ctx.getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE); locListener = new LocationListener() { @Override public void
