Hi Mark, Thanks for the answer. But still its not working. I included the code segment that updates the code. But still not working. Following is the code :
LocationManager lm = (LocationManager) getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE); LocationListener ll = new mylocationlistener(); lm.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 0, 0, ll); Location l = lm.getLastKnownLocation(lm.getProvider(LOCATION_SERVICE).getName()); Log.w("LocationTracker", "The value of Location returned by getLastKnownLocation() is : " + l.toString()); Log.d("Current Location", l.getLatitude() + ""); Log.d("Current Location",l.getLongitude() + ""); Toast.makeText(this, l.getLatitude() + "" + l.getLongitude(),Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show(); Regards, Prayag On May 5, 2:20 pm, Prayag Pathak <prayag.d.pat...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi guys, > > I am trying to get the latitude and longitude of the current location. > Let me clarify, I dont want to implement a listener that will create > an event when the location will be changed.
