LocationServices.SettingsApi deprecated

Question

My code is:

if (mGoogleApiClient == null && checkGooglePlayService()) {
        Log.d(Utils.TAG_DEV + TAG, "Building GoogleApiClient");
        mGoogleApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(this)
                .addConnectionCallbacks(this)
                .addOnConnectionFailedListener(this)
                .addApi(LocationServices.API)
                .build();
        mLocationRequest.setInterval(UPDATE_INTERVAL_IN_MILLISECONDS);
        mLocationRequest.setFastestInterval(FASTEST_UPDATE_INTERVAL_IN_MILLISECONDS);
        mLocationRequest.setPriority(LocationRequest.PRIORITY_HIGH_ACCURACY);
        LocationSettingsRequest.Builder builder = new LocationSettingsRequest.Builder();
        builder.addLocationRequest(mLocationRequest);
        builder.setAlwaysShow(true);
        mLocationSettingsRequest = builder.build();
        PendingResult<LocationSettingsResult> result =
                LocationServices.SettingsApi.checkLocationSettings(
                        mGoogleApiClient,
                        mLocationSettingsRequest
                );
        result.setResultCallback(this);

    }

but unfortunately the LocationServices.SettingsApi is deprecated. How can I replace deprecated code with the new one?

I found reading docs that the solution can be to use SettingsClient but couldn't figure how to do it.

Any ideea what to do to can update my code?

LocationServices.SettingsApi deprecated

Yes, LocationServices.SettingsApi is deprecated

How can I replace deprecated code with the new one?

You need to use GoogleApi-based API SettingsClient

FROM DOCS

SettingsClient

public class SettingsClient extends GoogleApi<Api.ApiOptions.NoOptions>

The main entry point for interacting with the location settings-enabler APIs.

This API makes it easy for an app to ensure that the device's system settings are properly configured for the app's location needs.

When making a request to location services, the device's system settings may be in a state that prevents an app from obtaining the location data that it needs. For example, GPS or Wi-Fi scanning may be switched off. This intent makes it easy to:

Determine if the relevant system settings are enabled on the device to carry out the desired location request.
Optionally, invoke a dialog that allows the user to enable the necessary location settings with a single tap.

I found reading docs that the solution can be to use SettingsClient but couldn't figure how to do it.

Follow this steps

To use this API, first create a LocationSettingsRequest.Builder and add all of the LocationRequests that the app will be using:

LocationSettingsRequest.Builder builder = new LocationSettingsRequest.Builder()
     .addLocationRequest(mLocationRequestHighAccuracy)
     .addLocationRequest(mLocationRequestBalancedPowerAccuracy)

Then check whether current location settings are satisfied:

Task<LocationSettingsResponse> result =
         LocationServices.getSettingsClient(this).checkLocationSettings(builder.build());

the new code is

 protected void createLocationRequest() {
    LocationRequest mLocationRequest = LocationRequest.create();
    mLocationRequest.setInterval(10000);
    mLocationRequest.setFastestInterval(5000);
    mLocationRequest.setPriority(LocationRequest.PRIORITY_HIGH_ACCURACY);

    LocationSettingsRequest.Builder builder = new LocationSettingsRequest.Builder()
            .addLocationRequest(mLocationRequest);

    SettingsClient client = LocationServices.getSettingsClient(this);
    Task<LocationSettingsResponse> task = client.checkLocationSettings(builder.build());

    task.addOnSuccessListener(this, new OnSuccessListener<LocationSettingsResponse>() {
        @Override
        public void onSuccess(LocationSettingsResponse locationSettingsResponse) {
            Toast.makeText(MapActivity.this, "addOnSuccessListener", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            // All location settings are satisfied. The client can initialize
            // location requests here.
            // ...
        }
    });

    task.addOnFailureListener(this, new OnFailureListener() {
        @Override
        public void onFailure(@NonNull Exception e) {
            Toast.makeText(MapActivity.this, "addOnFailureListener", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            if (e instanceof ResolvableApiException) {
                // Location settings are not satisfied, but this can be fixed
                // by showing the user a dialog.
                try {
                    // Show the dialog by calling startResolutionForResult(),
                    // and check the result in onActivityResult().
                    ResolvableApiException resolvable = (ResolvableApiException) e;
                    resolvable.startResolutionForResult(MapActivity.this,
                            REQUEST_CHECK_SETTINGS);
                } catch (IntentSender.SendIntentException sendEx) {
                    // Ignore the error.
                }
            }
        }
    });
}

I use this code after deprecation of LocationServices.SettingsApi and FusedLocationApi

This code provides :

1) Request last location

2) Location update periodically with FusedLocationProviderClient

All codes in your Activity

//create this at top of onCreate 
private FusedLocationProviderClient mFusedLocationClient;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    //...
    SupportMapFragment mapFragment = (SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map);
    mapFragment.getMapAsync(this);
    //ADD THIS LINE
    mFusedLocationClient  = LocationServices.getFusedLocationProviderClient(this);
    buildGoogleApiClient();
    createLocationRequest();
    Loc_Update();
    //...
}



protected synchronized void buildGoogleApiClient() {
    mGoogleApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(this)
            .addConnectionCallbacks(new GoogleApiClient.ConnectionCallbacks() {
                @Override
                public void onConnected(@Nullable Bundle bundle) {
                    if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(getApplicationContext(), Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
                        mFusedLocationClient.getLastLocation().addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener<Location>() {
                            @Override
                            public void onSuccess(Location location) {
                                if (location!=null){
                                    LatLng loc = new LatLng(location.getLatitude(), location.getLongitude());
                                    mMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(loc, 16.0f));
                                }
                            }
                        });
                    }
                }

                @Override

                }
            })
            .addApi(LocationServices.API)
            .build();
}
protected void createLocationRequest() {
    mLocationRequest = new LocationRequest();
    mLocationRequest.setInterval(30000);
    mLocationRequest.setFastestInterval(10000); 
    mLocationRequest.setPriority(LocationRequest.PRIORITY_HIGH_ACCURACY);
}

private void Loc_Update() {
    LocationSettingsRequest.Builder builder = new LocationSettingsRequest.Builder()
            .addLocationRequest(mLocationRequest);
    Task<LocationSettingsResponse> task = LocationServices.getSettingsClient(this).checkLocationSettings(builder.build());
