Longitude and latitude GPSTracker Android always return 0,0

Question

I am implementing GPS Tracker for getting Longitude and latitude from http://www.androidhive.info/2012/07/android-gps-location-manager-tutorial/.

To get value Longi

Answer 1

use play service

compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:11.0.4'

updated way to getting lat long in android

1 . Access the permission, 2 . GPSTracker code,

public class GPSTracker extends Service implements LocationListener {
  private final 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
  // Declaring a Location Manager
  protected LocationManager locationManager;

  public GPSTracker(Context context, ActSignIn actSignIn) {
    this.mContext = context;
    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) {
                locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(

                        MIN_DISTANCE_CHANGE_FOR_UPDATES, this);

                Log.d("Network", "Network");
                if (locationManager != null) {

    }

Answer 3

You're not updating received location in onLocationChanged(), try this:

@Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
    this.location = location;
    getLatitude();
    getLongitude();
}
