I am trying to fetch location based on WiFi/3G/4G
connection but it always returns 0.0
as latitude and longitude
. If same code is used with GPS ON
then it works so something is changed from 4.4 onwards.
Also tried following link but its not working too.

Is there any solution to get location based on WiFi/Data
connection from 4.4 kitkat
onwards??
Any help/suggestion would be appreciated.
