    LocationManager locationManager;
    Location locatio;



locationManager = (LocationManager)getActivity().getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);

location = locationManager.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);





String product_latitude     = "3.121191";
            String product_longtitude   = "101.673298";

            Double latitude     = Double.valueOf(product_latitude);

Try this

double latitude=lat;
double longitude=lng;    
float distance=0;
Location crntLocation=new Location("crntlocation");
crntLocation.setLatitude(currentLatitude);
crntLocation.setLongitude(currentLongitude);

Location newLocation=new Location("newlocation");
newLocation.setLatitude(latitude);
newLocation.setLongitude(longitude);


//float distance = crntLocation.distanceTo(newLocation);  in meters
distance =crntLocation.distanceTo(newLocation) / 1000; // in km

You can use static method of Location: distanceBetween to get distance between 2 locations.

float [] results = new float[5]; 
Location.distanceBetween(startLatitude, startLongitude, endLatitude,
endLongitude, results)

Use Direction API to find to the distance from your current location to the destination. It returns a JSON object as distance which gives you the distance in mile, you can parse that JSON and display that on your app screen.

For Google's official documentation read here.

And for a tutorial read here.

Hope this would help!!!
