How can I check the current status of the GPS receiver?

Question

How can I check the current status of the GPS receiver? I already checked the LocationListener onStatusChanged method but somehow it seems that is not working,

Answer 1

so many posts...

GpsStatus.Listener gpsListener = new GpsStatus.Listener() {
                        public void onGpsStatusChanged(int event) {
                            if( event == GpsStatus.GPS_EVENT_FIRST_FIX){
                                showMessageDialog("GPS fixed");
                            }
                        }
                 };

adding this code, with addGpsListener... showMessageDialog ... just shows a standard dialog window with the string

did the job perfectly for me :) thanks a lot :=) (sry for this post, not yet able to vote)
