I am trying to build an app from here, where the user clicks on a button and get the current latitude and longitude but the problem is that I am getting 0.0 for both latitude and longitude. I have one activity and one service in my application. The code for activity and service is given below :
GpsActivity.java
public class GpsActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
Button show;
private static final int REQUEST_CODE_PERMISSION = 2;
String mPermission = Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION;
GPSTracker gps;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_gps);
try {
if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, mPermission)
!= PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, new String[]{mPermission},
REQUEST_CODE_PERMISSION);
// If any permission above not allowed by user, this condition will
// execute every time, else your else part will work
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
show=(Button)findViewById(R.id.showLocation);
show.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
gps=new GPSTracker(GpsActivity.this);
// check if GPS enabled
if(gps.canGetLocation()){
double latitude = gps.getLatitude();
double longitude = gps.getLongitude();
// \n is for new line
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Your Location is - \nLat: "
+ latitude + "\nLong: " + longitude, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}else{
// can't get location
// GPS or Network is not enabled
// Ask user to enable GPS/network in settings
gps.showSettingsAlert();
}
}
});
}
}
GPSTracker.java
public class GPSTracker extends Service implements LocationListener {
private Context mContext;
// flag for GPS status
boolean isGPSEnabled = false;
// flag for network status
boolean isNetworkEnabled = false;
// flag for GPS status
boolean canGetLocation = false;
Location location; // location
double latitude; // latitude
double longitude; // longitude
// The minimum distance to change Updates in meters
private static final long MIN_DISTANCE_CHANGE_FOR_UPDATES = 10; // 10 meters
// The minimum time between updates in milliseconds
private static final long MIN_TIME_BW_UPDATES = 1000 * 60 * 1; // 1 minute
protected LocationManager locationManager;
public GPSTracker() {
//mContext = null;
}
public GPSTracker(Context mContext) {
this.mContext = mContext;
getLocation();
}
public Location getLocation() {
try {
locationManager = (LocationManager) mContext.getSystemService(LOCATION_SERVICE);
// getting GPS status
isGPSEnabled = locationManager.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
// getting network status
isNetworkEnabled = locationManager
.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);
if (!isGPSEnabled && !isNetworkEnabled) {
// no network provider is enabled
} else {
this.canGetLocation = true;
// First get location from Network Provider
if (isNetworkEnabled) {
if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(this,
Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)
!= PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED && ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(this,
Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
// TODO: Consider calling
// ActivityCompat#requestPermissions
// here to request the missing permissions, and then overriding
// public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String[] permissions,
// int[] grantResults)
// to handle the case where the user grants the permission. See the documentation
// for ActivityCompat#requestPermissions for more details.
return location;
}
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(
LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER,
MIN_TIME_BW_UPDATES,
MIN_DISTANCE_CHANGE_FOR_UPDATES, this);
Log.d("Network", "Network");
if (locationManager != null) {
location = locationManager
.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);
if (location != null) {
latitude = location.getLatitude();
longitude = location.getLongitude();
}
}
}
// if GPS Enabled get lat/long using GPS Services
if (isGPSEnabled) {
if (location == null) {
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(
LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER,
MIN_TIME_BW_UPDATES,
MIN_DISTANCE_CHANGE_FOR_UPDATES, this);
Log.d("GPS Enabled", "GPS Enabled");
if (locationManager != null) {
location = locationManager
.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
if (location != null) {
latitude = location.getLatitude();
longitude = location.getLongitude();
}
}
}
}
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return location;
}
/**

public void stopUsingGPS(){
if(locationManager != null){

public void showSettingsAlert(){

// On pressing Settings button
alertDialog.setPositiveButton("Settings", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog,int which) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Settings.ACTION_LOCATION_SOURCE_SETTINGS);
mContext.startActivity(intent);
}
});
// on pressing cancel button
alertDialog.setNegativeButton("Cancel", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
dialog.cancel();
}
});
// Showing Alert Message
alertDialog.show();
}
@Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
// TODO: Return the communication channel to the service.
return null;
}
@Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
}
@Override
public void onStatusChanged(String s, int i, Bundle bundle) {
}
@Override
public void onProviderEnabled(String s) {
}
@Override
public void onProviderDisabled(String s) {
}
}
I have mentioned all the permissions required for the location updates in the manifest file. The only problem here is that latitude and longitude shows 0.0 on clicking the button.
Can anone help? Thank you :)
