Tre, I think he's talking about finding location from the GPS (by satellite) or from the network (by base station and sector). He's trying to manage which mode to use in which situation and how/when to switch. On Sep 22, 7:44 am, TreKing wrote: > On Wed, Sep 22, 2010 at 6:30 AM, student wrote:

As Mike said, you will be able to use GPS even if you have no mobile signal or wifi connectivity, since GPS has it's own satellites, you can get coordenates as long as you have GPS friendly environment, some tips: you MUST be able to see the sky, no tall buildings around is better, and the bigger p

Rough, yeah. I'll have to look into the best way to throw out inaccurate values. Otherwise the application tends to look a bit ugly (inertial navigation). For instance, if I walk by a window while my application is estimating movements on its own and happens to get a gps signal for a moment or t

You might be better off checking the accuracy of your GPS location instead. Even though GPS is locked, your GPS accuracy may be too poor for what you need for your application. /* (non-Javadoc) * @see android.location.LocationListener#onLocationChanged (android.location.Location)

You will need to go with zero meters and 1 sec perhaps. But you can also use onStatusChange to see when the signal is lost. http://developer.android.com/reference/android/location/LocationListener.html On Jan 5, 2012 9:17 PM, "gotok" wrote: > James, > Thanks for your help. I have seen that link

It depends on how you mean about the GPS fix being good. If the provider goes to something other than available that may be a good indicator I believe. I look at the availability of the wifi and GPS to see if GPS is ready so I can possibly get some location info. On Jan 5, 2012 10:39 PM, "gotok"
