locationmanager

My Android app has two location listeners, one for fine and one for coarse listening. I want to be able to detect when the user turns their location services off and on. Whenever I turn my phones GPS or network location services OFF the onProviderDisabled method is called as expected. When I turn GPS or network services ON the onProviderEnabled is never called! I have put the code for one of the listeners below.... Update... I have discovered that the problem is related to unregistering the listeners in onPause. When I remove the code "locationManager.removeUpdates(myFineLocationListener);"

Take a look at this image. You see that some how LocationManager gives weird coordinates. It looks like they jump. But at the same time native google map app display correct location of the moving device. I tested app with 3 different smartphones under Android 7.0.0 and 7.1.1 and get the same result more or less. Please help me check my code to see which settings it is missing still. Thank you! import android.app.Service; import android.content.Context; import android.content.Intent; import android.location.Location; import android.location.LocationManager; import android.net

Good Day! I am working on an android app which monitors user location. I am using LocationManager to get users location, using the following method public void onLocationChanged(Location theLocation) {} Through the above method, whenever there was a user movement, I am receiving location coordinates. But, now I am planning to get user's location immediately after their app login. Is there any way through LocationManager through which I can manually get the location coordinates after my app launch? Use this technique : LocationManager locManager = (LocationManager)getSystemService(Context

I'm trying to get the user's current location via GPS capability, Wrote a simple class that implements LocationListener public class LocationManagerHelper implements LocationListener { private static double latitude; private static double longitude; @Override public void onLocationChanged(Location loc) { latitude = loc.getLatitude(); longitude = loc.getLongitude(); } @Override public void onProviderDisabled(String provider) { } @Override public void onProviderEnabled(String provider) { } @Override public void onStatusChanged(String provider, int status, Bundle extras) { // TODO Auto-generated

I've just started with Android programming and so far, I've just messed a little bit around buttons, textviews and some activities, but I would like to begin with services and GPS locations. In order to practise a little bit, I'm building a simple app that just shows the coordinates of the user. I've created my own service class with some methods, but whenever I try to implement the following one, my app crashes: @TargetApi(23) public Location getLocation(){ try{ locationManager = (LocationManager)this.ctx.getSystemService(LOCATION_SERVICE); gpsActivado = locationManager.isProviderEnabled

I have a problem with onLocationChanged event in Android. Here's the triggering: case R.id.start: { Points.add(overlay.getMyLocation()); // Points' type is ArrayList<GeoPoint> mgr.requestLocationUpdates(best, 0, 3, locationListener); } break; And here's the onLocationChanged method: public void onLocationChanged(Location location) { i++; Points.add(overlay.getMyLocation()); MapOverlay mapOverlay = new MapOverlay(Points.get(i-1), Points.get(i)); map.getOverlays().add(mapOverlay); //does the drawing mMapController.animateTo(Points.get(i)); } So, onLocationChanged is called only once and only
