I think you'll be able to get it to work with the following steps 1. Copy a properties file into /data/misc/location/myGPS. (You can look at the properties file in /data/misc/location/gps for an example) 2. rename the kengps.kml file as kml (with no extension) 3. restart the emulator On Mar 24, 6:48 pm, "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > On the Location-based Service APIs doc page, under Creating mock > LocationProviders, it's stated that: > > One way to generate a suitable KML file is to get directions in Google > Earth.

You need to place the kml file in that folder and name it "kml".
