I am new to android and I am trying to build an app to show my current location and I am following the setup in apidemos from google linked here. This is part of an assignment so I do not want to disclose what my ultimate goal is. For now I want to be able to have gps location working on my app. I will post my activity code, xml layout code, manifest code and gradle code. If there is anything else I need to post please let me know. I have tried searching but I couldn't find anything. Also if it helps I am mainly making this for my phone. Nexus 6p Android 6.0.1
EDIT:Got OnRequestPermissionsResultCallback Working but still have PermissionUtils giving me an error.
I will comment where my errors/cannot resolves are occurring
