Thanks to @usman 's answer we can apply the solution without extends the class by the following way;

class (I never tested);

public class LocationProviderChangedReceiver {

    private mLocationManager = (LocationManager) getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
    private BroadcastReceiver mReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
        @Override
        public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
            String ability = (isGPSProviderEnabled() && isNetworkProviderEnabled()) ? "CAN" : "CANNOT";
            Log.d("", "The location " + ability + " be caught in high accuracy!");
        }
    };


    public startProviderChangeObserving () {
        registerReceiver(mReceiver, new IntentFilter(LocationManager.PROVIDERS_CHANGED_ACTION));

    }


    public stopProviderChangeObserving () {
        unregisterReceiver(mReceiver);
    }   


    /**
    * Method to verify that the location providers wheter on or not on the device
    **/
    public boolean isGPSProviderEnabled() {
        return (Boolean) mLocationManager.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
    }

    public boolean isNetworkProviderEnabled() {
        return (Boolean) mLocationManager.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);
    }

}
