It works just fine with GPS. > What's the deal here? Was this deprecated or something? getCurrentLocation() was removed. My guess is that they didn't want this to be a blocking call, waiting for GPS to get a fix. > I have tried sample code and everything and it throws > an error before I can even launch the code...? You didn't provide us with the error message. You didn't provide us with sample source code that raises the error message. As a result, it is somewhat difficult to provide concrete assistance. Generally speaking, you need to do two things: 1. Ensure you have the appropriate permissions (e.g., ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) in your AndroidManifest.xml file. 2. Ensure somebody is asking your desired location provider for updates, otherwise getLastKnownLocation() may be perpetually null. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com Android Training on the Ranch! -- Mar 16-20, 2009 http://www.bignerdranch.com/schedule.shtml --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
