FusedLocationProviderClient gives inaccurate location

I have made a simple sample of the FusedLocationProviderClient according to this: https://developer.android.com/training/location/request-updates#java
The issue is that I get a location every now and then (waaaay above an interval of 4000ms) and the accuracy is 2000 meters. I need a more precise location and more often. I get the feeling that the location client is not set up properly but at the same time, when using the locationmanager I also get a slow update rate on gps when using the gps provider, network provider also gives me an accuracy of 2000 meters.
Here is my code:
public class MainActivity extends Activity implements ActivityCompat.OnRequestPermissionsResultCallback {
Context context;
private LocationCallback locationCallback;
private FusedLocationProviderClient fusedLocationClient;
private LocationRequest locationRequest;
#Override
protected void onCreate(final Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
context = this;
locationRequest = new LocationRequest();
locationRequest.setFastestInterval(2000);
locationRequest.setInterval(4000);
locationRequest.setMaxWaitTime(5000);
locationRequest.setPriority(LocationRequest.PRIORITY_HIGH_ACCURACY);
fusedLocationClient = new FusedLocationProviderClient(this);
locationCallback = new LocationCallback() {
#Override
public void onLocationResult(#NonNull LocationResult locationResult) {
for (Location location : locationResult.getLocations()) {
Log.e("Got location from provider " + location.getProvider(), location.getLatitude() + ", " + location.getLongitude());
Log.e("getAccuracy", String.valueOf(location.getAccuracy()));
}
}
#Override
public void onLocationAvailability(#NonNull LocationAvailability locationAvailability) {
super.onLocationAvailability(locationAvailability);
Log.e("asdf", "available");
}
};
}
private void startLocationUpdates() {
if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED && ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(context, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
String[] PERMISSIONS = {android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION, android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION};
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, PERMISSIONS, 112);
return;
}
fusedLocationClient.requestLocationUpdates(locationRequest,
locationCallback,
Looper.getMainLooper());
}
private void stopLocationUpdates() {
fusedLocationClient.removeLocationUpdates(locationCallback);
}
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int i, #NonNull String[] strings, #NonNull int[] ints) {
Intent intent = getIntent();
finish();
startActivity(intent);
}
#Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
startLocationUpdates();
}
public void onPause() {
super.onPause();
stopLocationUpdates();
}
}
How can I resolve this?

Marker disappearing and title not showing

I am trying to add a marker on my Google maps by long-pressing on the location and displaying the name of the location, however, whenever I long-press the marker appears for a split second and then goes away (disappears).
I understand after the long-press the marker is supposed to stay and then show the title as well, but that is not working.
Please do let me know if anyone is facing any such issue and can help me with it.

}

You are clearing your map every time your location changes here:
#Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
centerMapOnLocation(location, "Your Location");
}
That's why your marker disappears right after you add it to the map. If you remove or comment out this line within your centerMapOnLocation method:
mMap.clear();
Then the markers no longer disappear.
Hope this helps!

Start Gps Tracking again when the android application On-Resumes()

I have build a system which is based upon tracking users current location dynamically as they move around places. The system works perfectly and updates current location of the users time after time into the firebase database. however when the application is minimized and resumed again to the same activity which is a map of course, it only shows the location of the user but does not update it in the fire-base database. now i know that the activity starts again from the OnResume() method, i have tried several things but every time i try to do something, it most of the time says that googleapiClient is not connected and then crashes right away. without manipulating the onResume, the app works perfectly but that does not update user position into the fire-base when the app is minimized and reopened from the onResume method. What should i do to the onResume() method that it starts sending user dynamic location into the firebase???
Below i have posted my code. Any help would be appreciated Thank You.

The problem with your app is that in the lifecycle method onStop() you request to stop receiving location updates from the FusedLocation API, but in the reciprocal method of onResume(). you never request for location updates. Furthermore, with the way your code is structured even if you did register for location updates inside of onResume(), you'd run into a problem with the GoogleClient API because it may not (more than likely, isn't) connected by the time onResume() gets executed.
I recommend that you call the method buildGoogleApiClient() from onResume instead of onCreate() (still perform the permissions check). This way the GoogleClient API is always connected while the activity is resumed. Remember to call "disconnect" on the GoogleClient API inside of onPause(). Inside of the location listener callback method you should perform a null check on the GoogleMap reference to prevent any NP-exceptions. GoogleMaps may be null during the first few executions of onLocationChanged(Location) because it may take more time to initialize the MapFragment than it does to receive the first location update from the FusedLocation API. I've seen the location API deliver a location update milliseconds after I requested updates.
Also, just good practice you should pair lifecycle methods with their reciprocals:
onCreate() -> onDestroy()
onStart() -> onStop()
onResume -> onPause()
Mixing and matching lifecycle callbacks can bite you down the line when you expecting a happens-before relationship, such as registering and deregistering for location updates when the app is paused and resumed.

How to track friends location?

I am new in this field and I am trying to make application to track my friends like "snap-map". I am able to get my real-time location but I don't know what should I add to get real-time location of people who are using same application.
Here is my Java code, it will really helpful for me if you guys give me a code.

Current location shows on emulator but not on phone

I am setting up my map to track my location. Right at the start I want it to detect my Lat and Long and show where I am and update the marker location when I move.
When I test this on GenyMotion emulator and input my own positions, it works and shows updated location accordingly. But when I test it on a mobile device, I do not get any marker and get the "Location null" Toast message.
Since it is the first time on the device, there is probably no last known location. Thus wanting to make sure, I took the device and moved a distance (probably 50 meters or so back n forth) and still nothing updated on the device.

do you put the permission for using the gps :)
The main permissions you need are
android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION or
android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION.
