Answer 1

LocationClient is deprecated. You have to use GoogleApiclient, like this:

1: Declare a GoogleApiClient variable

private GoogleApiClient mGoogleApiClient;

2: Instantiate

mGoogleApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(mThisActivity)
     .addApi(LocationServices.API)
     .addConnectionCallbacks(this)
     .addOnConnectionFailedListener(this)
     .build();

3: Implement Callback

public class YourClass extends BaseFragment implements
    GoogleApiClient.ConnectionCallbacks,
    GoogleApiClient.OnConnectionFailedListener, LocationListener {

    @Override
    public void onConnectionFailed(ConnectionResult result) {
        // your code goes here
    }

    @Override
    public void onConnected(Bundle connectionHint) {
        //your code goes here
    }

    @Override
    public void onConnectionSuspended(int cause) {
        //your code goes here       
    }
}

4: Start to get Location Updates:

LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.requestLocationUpdates(
            mGoogleApiClient, mLocationRequest, this);

5: Remove Location Updates:

LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.removeLocationUpdates(mGoogleApiClient, this);

6: Get Last Known Location:

private Location mCurrentLocation;

mCurrentLocation = LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.getLastLocation(mGoogleApiClient);
