locationManager.getLastKnownLocation() return null

Question

i dont understand why locationManager.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER); return the location null. I gave all permission but its reutning

Answer 1

Accoding to the documentation, it returns null, if the device is not aware of the last known location. Probably the GPS can not locate you. It takes about a minute or more, anyway. So try to go outside, under the clear sky, away from tall buildings, and wait until GPS can locate you.
