How to get continuous Location (Lat and Lng) along with location address in same project?

Question

I want to show a continuous update of Lat and long along with location address .

I was able to receive continuous lat/lng but wasn't able to find the location address .

Basically , want to combine these two : https://developer.android.com/training/location/receive-location-updates.html

https://developer.android.com/training/location/display-address.html

How can I achieve this?

Thanks.

Off the top of my head, use the lat/long that you continuously receive and follow the instructions in link #2 to get the address. — Matter Cat, Jul 16 '15 at 09:16

@Shipra_delhi you posted 2 good examples ... and you are unable to combine 'em ... what's you expect? a miracle? if you cannot do this by yourself how we can help you? giving a working code? it is not the way how SO works... — Selvin, Jul 16 '15 at 09:23
@Selvin: i expect you to combine 'em and show me a miracle . SIMPLE . — delhi_123, Jul 16 '15 at 09:24
as Matter Cat wrote ... you have to get results from 1st example and pass em to the 2nd example ... this should be simple enough ... — Selvin, Jul 16 '15 at 09:26

Hi you can get a location address using Geocoder class

Geocoder gcd = new Geocoder(this, Locale.getDefault());

List<Address> addresses;
String city;

try {

    addresses = gcd.getFromLocation(lat,lon, 1);

    if (addresses.size() > 0) 
        city = addresses.get(0).getLocality();

} catch (IOException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}
