 LocationManager mlocManager = (LocationManager)getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);   
      LocationListener mlocListener = new MyLocationListener();
      mlocManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER, 0, 0, mlocListener);
}
 public class MyLocationListener implements LocationListener
    {


        @Override
        public void onLocationChanged(Location loc)
        {
            Log.i("**************************************", "Location changed");

            loc.getLatitude();
            loc.getLongitude(); 
            String Text = "My current location is: " +"Latitude = " + loc.getLatitude() + "Longitude = " + loc.getLongitude();             
            Toast.makeText( getApplicationContext(), Text, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }

        @Override
        public void onProviderDisabled(String provider)
        {
            Toast.makeText( getApplicationContext(), "Gps Disabled", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT ).show();
        }

        @Override
        public void onProviderEnabled(String provider)
        {
            Toast.makeText( getApplicationContext(), "Gps Enabled", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }

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

    }
