I'm tring to get the location from the gps/netwrok by best provider but always it's return the same location, also i can see that on google map there is a sign to my right location. please anyone can tell me what i'm doing wrong?
My activity is:
public class MainMenu2 extends Activity implements LocationListener, OnClickListener
on my onCreate i have:
if(isGooglePlay()){
setContentView(R.layout.menu_2);
setUpMapIfNeeded();
}
isGooglePlay method:
private boolean isGooglePlay() { // looks if googlemaps is available
int status = GooglePlayServicesUtil.isGooglePlayServicesAvailable(this);
if(status == ConnectionResult.SUCCESS){
return true;
}
else{
((Dialog) GooglePlayServicesUtil.getErrorDialog(status, this, 10)).show();
//Toast.makeText(this, "Google Play is not available", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
return(false);
}
}//isGooglePlay
setUpMapIfNeeded method:
private void setUpMapIfNeeded() {
// Do a null check to confirm that we have not already instantiated the map.
if (mMap == null) {
mMap = ((MapFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.menu_map))
.getMap();
// Check if we were successful in obtaining the map.
if (mMap != null) {
// The Map is verified. It is now safe to manipulate the map.
mMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
locationManager = (LocationManager) this.getSystemService(LOCATION_SERVICE);
Criteria criteria = new Criteria();
criteria.setAccuracy(ACCURACY_FINE);
provider = locationManager.getBestProvider(criteria, true);
if (provider == null){
onProviderDisabled(provider);
}
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(provider, 100, 1, this);
loc = locationManager.getLastKnownLocation(provider);
//---here the privider is "gps" but always the same location---//
if (loc != null){
onLocationChanged(loc);
}
mMap.setMapType(GoogleMap.MAP_TYPE_NORMAL); // set Map Type
}
}
}//setUpMap
and override methods:
@Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
LatLng latlng = new LatLng(location.getLatitude(),location.getLongitude());
mMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(latlng));
mMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.zoomTo(10));
double pLong = location.getLongitude();
double pLat = location.getLatitude();
Latstr = String.valueOf(pLong);
Lngstr = String.valueOf(pLat);
latitude = pLat;
longitude = pLong;
}
@Override
public void onProviderDisabled(String provider) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Toast.makeText(this, "Please turn ON the GPS", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
@Override
public void onProviderEnabled(String provider) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
@Override
public void onStatusChanged(String provider, int status, Bundle extras) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
@Override
protected void onPause() {
super.onPause();
locationManager.removeUpdates(this);
}
@Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
myLatLng = new LatLng(latitude,longitude);
CameraUpdate update = CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(myLatLng, 15);
mMap.animateCamera(update);
mMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().position(new LatLng(latitude,longitude )).title("Find me here!"));
}
