Answer 1

locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER, 300000, 500, locationListener);

In your code use this LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER when you testing that make sure that the network you are using like WIFI is available or you are inserted sim card in your device and network is available on it.

You may also test using LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER but make sure before use that GPS is ON of device

I think this may be an issue with the Android Emulator at present.
