I'm trying to use the new google maps android api v2 and i'm developing an app for android 2.3.3 or higher. It's a very simple app: it takes the user current location (using gps or networks signal) it gets from db a POI using direction api, it drives the user to the POI.
My problem is get the user current location. thanks to this post How to get the current location in Google Maps Android API v2? I learned that i can't update current position using new google api.
Another problem is that I can set my position using GoogleMap setMyLocationEnabled(boolean enabled) but I can't use getMyLocation() to know where user is.
I used this guide http://www.vogella.com/articles/AndroidLocationAPI/article.html#maps_mylocation to get my location, and i tried to integrate inside my Activity to draw user position.
here my code:

It works but not so good, as you can see in the pictures eveytime there is a new location it adds a new Marker (ex Overlay I think... I never use old google maps api).
How can I show only one markers?
In addition on my map i need to display also POI's marker, so i think that it's not a good solution delate all marker and redraw it on the maps. There is another best way to get user current location, updating it every moment displaying just one custom marker?!
You can call startPerc.remove(); to delete only this marker.
From here
Why not just use startPerc.setPosition to move the marker instead of keep adding and removing...
set the position of the marker when you get another location by this method
marker. set position (location)
you should use googlemap.clear() before adding the marker because everytime when location changed it add new marker on map with oldest marker. so use googlemap.clear() before add the marker in location changed. it will remove oldest marker and add new marker. googlemap is the instance of GoogleMap Class.
You could replace the marker with a new one:
if(userMarker!=null) userMarker.remove();
userMarker = theMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions()
.position(lastLatLng)
.title("You are here")
.icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.fromResource(R.drawable.your_loc_icon))
.snippet("Your current location"));

}
First of all in map api v2 use LocationClient to retreive your location, see: http://developer.android.com/training/location/retrieve-current.html
Iportant: to kick start API, call this in onStart of main Activity:
private void kickStardedLocationManager(){
// Acquire a reference to the system Location Manager
LocationManager locationManager = (LocationManager) this.getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
// Define a listener that responds to location updates
android.location.LocationListener locationListener = new android.location.LocationListener() {
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
// Called when a new location is found by the network location provider.
//MainActivity.this.makeUseOfNewLocation(location);
}
public void onStatusChanged(String provider, int status, Bundle extras) {}
public void onProviderEnabled(String provider) {}
public void onProviderDisabled(String provider) {}
};
long l = 10;
float f = 100;
// Register the listener with the Location Manager to receive location updates
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER, 0, 0, locationListener); //LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER
}
