you can try with the LocationManager.
LocationManager lm = (LocationManager)getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
Location location = lm.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
double longitude = location.getLongitude();
double latitude = location.getLatitude();
then you LocationListener which will give you asynchronous updates of your location.
private final LocationListener locationListener = new LocationListener() {
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
longitude = location.getLongitude();
latitude = location.getLatitude();
}
}
lm.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 2000, 10, locationListener);
also add permissions into your manifest file:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.location.gps" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
I hope this will help you.
Use the **LocationManager.**
LocationManager lm = (LocationManager)getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
Location location = lm.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
double longitude = location.getLongitude();
double latitude = location.getLatitude();
The call to getLastKnownLocation() doesn't block - which means it will return null if no position is currently available - so you probably want to have a look at passing a LocationListener to the requestLocationUpdates() method instead, which will give you asynchronous updates of your location.
private final LocationListener locationListener = new LocationListener() {
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
longitude = location.getLongitude();
latitude = location.getLatitude();
}
}
lm.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS, 2000, 10, locationListener);
If you want to use GPS, you'll need to give your application the ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION permission:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
