[android-beginners] simple web search based on location
Hi Folks, wondering if any of you can help. This is what I am trying to do: simple app to get list of addresses I am interested in based on my current location. I get the current location using location services. Now, based on this current location I want to do a search on business places without really using the SearchManager's triggerSearch. The problem with the triggerSearch is that it launches the googlemap and show the business address I am looking for and it is blocked. I want to get the control back. I do not want to launch the map with the listing. all I want to do is the get the Geopoint of the business address I am interested in using a simple web search. I tried reverseGeocoding , but it is does not work with business address. It needs full address. any suggestion?. Simply put, all I want to do is a simple websearch , say query="whole foods, los gatos, CA" to get its full address. and then use it to get the GeoPoint. I am stuck and wondering if anyone can give me some pointers. thanks a ton in advance. Sunny. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.

[android-beginners] Forward GeoCoder usage for listing business..
Hi Folks, anyone had luck using forward geocoder calls to list business address latitude/longitudes using ..getFromLocationName(address, maxresults).? what i found out was that the above would work if we have a specific address , say ,"1600 amphitheater way, mountain view, CA" or just use the locality address , say, " Mountain view, CA" but does not work for example if you say " wholefoods , mountain view, CA.". any tips on how to make business search.. thanks Sunil. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.

Re: [android-beginners] Geopoint not giving the correct location
