Update GPS Listener every 5 seconds

Question

I\'m supposed to update the listener every 5 seconds. But it doesn\'t. What could be wrong with my code?

Thanks a lot for any help!

package com.example.a

As stated by David Olsson, MINIMUM_TIME_BETWEEN_UPDATES only prevents the listener to be requested too often. If you want to regularly requestLocationUpdates, you should use Timer and TimerTask and have requestLocationUpdates run once every 5 seconds

schedule(TimerTask task, long delay, long period)
Schedules the specified task for repeated fixed-delay execution, beginning after the specified delay.
