You can get only details by getting LocationUpdates in textview maps won't give you updates in offline.If you are using textview for getting updates You may forgot this.

add CourseLocation Permisssion in Manifest.xml

ok. But why you are starting service and i dont know why you are doing. I think to get Location details there is no need of a service – Naga Lokesh Kannumoori Nov 28 '17 at 10:09

In onCreate()

LocationManager locationManager = (LocationManager) this.getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
LocationListener locationListener = new LocationListener() {
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
  // Called when a new location is found by the network location provider.
  makeUseOfNewLocation(location);
}

public void onStatusChanged(String provider, int status, Bundle extras) {}

public void onProviderEnabled(String provider) {}

public void onProviderDisabled(String provider) {}
  };
// Register the listener with the Location Manager to receive location updates
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER, 0, 0, locationListener);

and finally don't forget to add permission in manifest and handle the permissions in Java code too because of dynamic permissions.

That's it.

I hope it will work fine even in offline also.

Is it useful to you ? – Naga Lokesh Kannumoori Nov 28 '17 at 10:52 — Naga Lokesh Kannumoori, Nov 28 '17 at 10:52
