locationmanager

I have created a location listener by 'LocationManager' with this code: mLocationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER, 100, 100, mListenerNetwork); and the listener: LocationListener mListenerNetwork = new LocationListener() { public void onLocationChanged(Location location) { // New Location by LocationManager } public void onProviderDisabled(String provider) { } public void onProviderEnabled(String provider) { } public void onStatusChanged(String provider, int status, Bundle extras) { } } And I have a listener by google maps API: getMap()

In the application I'm working on, one of the features is to notify the user when they reach a location that they have set prior. The code below is in addProximityAlert in Activity: final Intent intent = new Intent(PROX_ALERT_INTENT); final PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast( InfoActivity.this, 0, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_ONE_SHOT); LocationManager locationManager = (LocationManager) this .getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE); locationManager.addProximityAlert(18.7726271, 98.9738381, 5000, -1, pendingIntent); this.locationReminderReceiver = new

I wanted to get my GPS coordinates using Android App. I started developing, and I can get GPS coordinates, but they are not accurate. I wanted to use NETWORK_PROVIDER, but the Location by this provider is always null. More interesting, isProvicerEnabled returns true. I used example from this thread (best answer) enter link description here private void _getLocation() { // Get the location manager try { boolean isGPSEnabled = false; boolean isNetworkEnabled = false; locationManager = (LocationManager) getApplicationContext().getSystemService(LOCATION_SERVICE); Location location = null; double

I am looking at LocationManager to get best location for periodical reporting location. I am curious about LocationManager.requestLocationUpdates method. What would it happen if I invoke this method several times with different minTime and minDistance without calling removeUpdates? Will it add new request or just update the existing one? I am trying to test this, it is not bit easy at the moment. Your answer would be appreciated. It will update the existing request. You could register it multiple times. see my code below. package com.test.locationmanager; import android.app.Activity; import

I'm trying to get the current location in android using LocationManager and LocationListener as described at http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/location/obtaining-user-location.html However, onLocationChanged method of the LocationListener is never called. I've used a real android phone / also used the emulator and simulated location changed using telnet, as described in the link above. Here's my code: public class MyActivity extends Activity { @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); /* Use the

Before I go into location based mode I check for existence of any location providers by calling List<String> android.location.LocationManager.getProviders(boolean enabledOnly) //enabledOnly = true and checking the size of the resulting list. Now I tested my App on a HTC Desire with Android 2.2. The system settings don't allow any location tracking (GPS and mobile is turned off). However, the list get returned has 1 entry, whose value is "passive". What is it? Can I work with it? The provider seems to be slow / not working.
