I looked at this Q&A here: GoogleApiClient is throwing "GoogleApiClient is not connected yet" AFTER onConnected function getting called
As it seemed to be similar to what I was experiencing but, it's not. The issue with that user was that they were declaring their api client in the onStart() method, I create mine in the onCreate() method like suggested by the answer. I am still however, getting the same error.
Here is the code I have for these three methods:
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
/* Butter knife creates the variables */
ButterKnife.bind(this);
/* Startup location services */
locationRequest = LocationRequest.create()
.setPriority(LocationRequest.PRIORITY_HIGH_ACCURACY)
.setInterval(10 * 1000) // 10 seconds, in milliseconds
.setFastestInterval(1 * 1000); // 1 second, in milliseconds
mGoogleApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(this)
.addConnectionCallbacks(this)
.addOnConnectionFailedListener(this)
.addApi(LocationServices.API)
.build();
progressBar.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
refreshImageView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
getForecast();
}
});
}
@Override
protected void onStart() {
super.onStart();
mGoogleApiClient.connect();
Log.i("Connected!!!", "WERE CONNECTED");
}
@Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
if (!mGoogleApiClient.isConnected()) {
mGoogleApiClient.connect();
}
resumeLocationUpdates();
}
private void resumeLocationUpdates() {
Log.i("RESUMING", "RESUMING LOCATION UPDATES");
LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.requestLocationUpdates(mGoogleApiClient, locationRequest, this);
}
This is what the logger shows, which is confusing me since it shows were connected but the app crashes saying were not connected...
