I found the info I was looking for but it leads me to another question. In
the usage terms for the geocoding webservice it states : Note: the Geocoding
API may only be used in conjunction with a Google map; geocoding results
without displaying them on a map is prohibited. For complete details on
allowed usage, consult the
<http://code.google.com/apis/maps/terms.html#section_10_12> Maps API Terms
of Service License Restrictions. 

 

I am using this service to get the city and state name and show that in a
textview not a map. Since this way is breaking the terms of service I can't
really use this method. I was using the android geocoder class but half the
time it returns a null value back to me. Is there a better alternative that
could be used or am I stuck using the android geocoder and all its buggy
glory?

for using google maps.


Have you tried the website for these apis and / or searching Google?
