You can detect GPS on/off event/status with GpsStatus.Listener and register it with the LocationManager.

LocationManager lm = (LocationManager) getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
lm.addGpsStatusListener(new android.location.GpsStatus.Listener()
{
    public void onGpsStatusChanged(int event)
    {
        switch(event)
        {
        case GPS_EVENT_STARTED:
            // do your tasks
            break;
        case GPS_EVENT_STOPPED:
            // do your tasks
            break;
        }
    }
});

thanks,for you contribution.but i want when gps off then fuesed location notify and then notify the server. – Suman May 21 '16 at 06:37
no override method available to detect the GPS is off. You try trick, onConnectionSuspended and onConnectionfailed and check your GPS is off then notify to the server. I think better to add GPS listener – USKMobility May 21 '16 at 06:51
