Get ride of 0.0 location using google locationManager - java

I am using google location to get the location based on the best provider, so i am running that on a service, the service is responsable to update location based on a defined distance and time.
Everything is working well when i update my location, but i wanna get ride of the 0.0 location, when i doesn't update the location i need to get the current location, or to use the lastknowlocation how can i do it using my code below?
public class MyService extends Service

When you get a location that is !=0.0, store it in a variable, or in Shared Preferences, or anywhere else you want. Then the next time you get 0.0 from locationManager, just use the latest real value that you stored previously.

Broadcast manager not working in Fragment

I have a BroadcastReceiver which is used to receive data from a BLE device. The same code is working fine in an Activity but not in Fragment.
Here is the code:
public class HomeFragment extends Fragment implements LocationListener {

The complete code in the same ay with a few changes in working fine in Activity. Any idea what might be the blocker.? Do I need to do something else in the fragment to receive the data from the Local Broadcast Manager.?
Please try this way :
Create class BroadcastHelper
public class BroadcastHelper {
public static final String BROADCAST_EXTRA_METHOD_NAME = "INPUT_METHOD_CHANGED";
public static final String ACTION_NAME = "hossam";
public static void sendInform(Context context, String method) {
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction(ACTION_NAME);
intent.putExtra(BROADCAST_EXTRA_METHOD_NAME, method);
try {
context.sendBroadcast(intent);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public static void sendInform(Context context, String method, Intent intent) {
intent.setAction(ACTION_NAME);
intent.putExtra(BROADCAST_EXTRA_METHOD_NAME, method);
try {
context.sendBroadcast(intent);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
And in your fragment :
private Receiver receiver;
private boolean isReciverRegistered = false;
#Override
public void onResume() {
super.onResume();
if (receiver == null) {
receiver = new Receiver();
IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter(BroadcastHelper.ACTION_NAME);
getActivity().registerReceiver(receiver, filter);
isReciverRegistered = true;
}
}
#Override
public void onDestroy() {
if (isReciverRegistered) {
if (receiver != null)
getActivity().unregisterReceiver(receiver);
}
super.onDestroy();
}
private class Receiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
#Override
public void onReceive(Context arg0, Intent arg1) {
Log.v("r", "receive " + arg1.getStringExtra(BroadcastHelper.BROADCAST_EXTRA_METHOD_NAME));
String methodName = arg1.getStringExtra(BroadcastHelper.BROADCAST_EXTRA_METHOD_NAME);
if (methodName != null && methodName.length() > 0) {
Log.v("receive", methodName);
switch (methodName) {
case "Test":
Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "message", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
break;
default:
break;
}
}
}
}
And to send your broadcast this this code :
BroadcastHelper.sendInform(context, "Test");
Or if you want to send data with it use :
Intent intent = new Intent("intent");
intent.putExtra("desc", desc);
intent.putExtra("name", Local_name);
intent.putExtra("code", productCode);
BroadcastHelper.sendInform(getActivity(), "Test" , intent);
I have a fragment where I do something similar. I put my code to setup the service in onCreateView and have a register and unregister in onPause() and onResume. Works good for me.
Can you check modify register receiver in service_init()
as
getActivity().registerReceiver(UARTStatusChangeReceiver, makeGattUpdateIntentFilter());
and for unregisterer receiver
getActivity().unregisterReceiver(UARTStatusChangeReceiver);

Firstly add this implementation in your build.gradle file
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:11.2.0'
After that implement, (implements LocationListener) in your activity or fragment and after that implement its function and then
call this method in your onCreate() getLocation();
and then in this function add these lines
protected void getLocation() {
if (isLocationEnabled(MainActivity.this)) {
locationManager = (LocationManager) this.getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
criteria = new Criteria();
bestProvider = String.valueOf(locationManager.getBestProvider(criteria, true)).toString();
//You can still do this if you like, you might get lucky:
Location location = locationManager.getLastKnownLocation(bestProvider);
if (location != null) {
Log.e("TAG", "GPS is on");
latitude = location.getLatitude();
longitude = location.getLongitude();
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "latitude:" + latitude + " longitude:" + longitude, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
searchNearestPlace(voice2text);
}
else{
//This is what you need:
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(bestProvider, 1000, 0, this);
}
}
else
{
//prompt user to enable location....
//.................
}
}
After that in your onLocationChanged(Location location)
add these lines of code
#Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
//Hey, a non null location! Sweet!
//remove location callback:
locationManager.removeUpdates(this);
//open the map:
latitude = location.getLatitude();
longitude = location.getLongitude();
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "latitude:" + latitude + " longitude:" + longitude, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
searchNearestPlace(voice2text);
}
and you are set to go!!!!
Cheers Happy Coding
If you want continuous location update you can use background service.below code is for location service

And in manifest mention that service

LocationManager locationManager = (LocationManager)
context.getSystemService(context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
return locationManager.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
}
}
By this code when my gps is off it dose not fetch the location details through the network though the network is ON. It shows both boolean variables of network_enabled and gps_enabled as false though the network is ON so network_enabled should be true.
I have added both the permissions of coarse location and fine location in the manifest.
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"/>
On the other side when I turn on the gps I get the location. Just not working trough the network.
Is there a problem in NETWORK_PROVIDER? What can be the problem?
Please help. Thank you..

Implementing a background service to catch location

I have an app that can capture fotos and send to the server.
I need to get location(lat,lon,alt) everytime i take a foto.
After a lot of research i understood that taking this data requires some time, the gps triangulation must run asyncronous, so i tried to figure out the best way to do this.
After some time, i had the idea, to start a service, everytime i run the aplication, this service will grab the last location everytime, and when i send a foto i will get the last location values.
So i did something like this(Service):
package com.example.afcosta.inesctec.pt.android.services;
import android.app.Service;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.location.Location;
import android.location.LocationManager;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.IBinder;
import android.util.Log;
public class MyService extends Service {
private static final String TAG = "BOOMBOOMTESTGPS";
private LocationManager mLocationManager = null;
private static final int LOCATION_INTERVAL = 1000;
private static final float LOCATION_DISTANCE = 10f;
private class LocationListener implements android.location.LocationListener
{
Location mLastLocation;
public LocationListener(String provider)
{
Log.e(TAG, "LocationListener " + provider);
mLastLocation = new Location(provider);
}
#Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location)
{
Log.e("asd", "onLocationChanged: " + location);
mLastLocation.set(location);
}
#Override
public void onProviderDisabled(String provider)
{
Log.e(TAG, "onProviderDisabled: " + provider);
}
#Override
public void onProviderEnabled(String provider)
{
Log.e(TAG, "onProviderEnabled: " + provider);
}
#Override
public void onStatusChanged(String provider, int status, Bundle extras)
{
Log.e(TAG, "onStatusChanged: " + provider);
}
}
LocationListener[] mLocationListeners = new LocationListener[] {
new LocationListener(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER),
new LocationListener(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER)
};
#Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent arg0)
{
return null;
}
#Override
public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId)
{
Log.e(TAG, "onStartCommand");
super.onStartCommand(intent, flags, startId);
return START_STICKY;
}
#Override
public void onCreate()
{
Log.e(TAG, "onCreate");
initializeLocationManager();
try {
mLocationManager.requestLocationUpdates(
LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER, LOCATION_INTERVAL, LOCATION_DISTANCE,
mLocationListeners[1]);
} catch (java.lang.SecurityException ex) {
Log.i(TAG, "fail to request location update, ignore", ex);
} catch (IllegalArgumentException ex) {
Log.d(TAG, "network provider does not exist, " + ex.getMessage());
}
try {
mLocationManager.requestLocationUpdates(
LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, LOCATION_INTERVAL, LOCATION_DISTANCE,
mLocationListeners[0]);
} catch (java.lang.SecurityException ex) {
Log.i(TAG, "fail to request location update, ignore", ex);
} catch (IllegalArgumentException ex) {
Log.d(TAG, "gps provider does not exist " + ex.getMessage());
}
}
#Override
public void onDestroy()
{
Log.e(TAG, "onDestroy");
super.onDestroy();
if (mLocationManager != null) {
for (int i = 0; i < mLocationListeners.length; i++) {
try {
mLocationManager.removeUpdates(mLocationListeners[i]);
} catch (Exception ex) {
Log.i(TAG, "fail to remove location listners, ignore", ex);
}
}
}
}
private void initializeLocationManager() {
Log.e(TAG, "initializeLocationManager");
if (mLocationManager == null) {
mLocationManager = (LocationManager) getApplicationContext().getSystemService(this.LOCATION_SERVICE);
}
}
}
and then i call the service when my app runs(at the moment i am testing this just with login(onCreate))
startService(new Intent(this, MyService.class));
i get this logTrace(with red):
`05-22 20:35:39.652 32426-32426/com.example.afcosta.inesctec.pt.android E/BOOMBOOMTESTGPS: LocationListener gps

`
i don't get any location, i don't know why, the onlocationchanged never runs, if the location doesn't change i want to get the last.
How can i accomplish that?
Thanks
Best regards

You don't need service class as you can get location in activity in which you are taking photos.
So first of all add permissions in manifest file
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
and dependencies in gradle
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:10.2.6'
Then in activity in which you are taking photos
Implement listeners
public class Activity extends AppCompatActivity implements ConnectionCallbacks, OnConnectionFailedListener{
protected Location mLastLocation;
private double Latitude;
private double Longitude;
in onCreate method ask user for location permission and call
buildGoogleApiClient();
and then define buildGoogleApiClient() method
/**
* Builds a GoogleApiClient. Uses the addApi() method to request the LocationServices API.
*/
protected synchronized void buildGoogleApiClient() {
mGoogleApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(this)
.addConnectionCallbacks(this)
.addOnConnectionFailedListener(this)
.addApi(LocationServices.API)
.build();
}
after that implements listener interfaces methods
#Override
public void onConnected(Bundle connectionHint) {
if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED && ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
return;
}
mLastLocation = LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.getLastLocation(mGoogleApiClient);
if (mLastLocation != null) {
Latitude = mLastLocation.getLatitude();
Longitude = mLastLocation.getLongitude();
}
}
#Override
public void onConnectionFailed(ConnectionResult result) {
// Refer to the javadoc for ConnectionResult to see what error codes might be returned in
// onConnectionFailed.
Log.i(TAG, "Connection failed: ConnectionResult.getErrorCode() = " + result.getErrorCode());
}
#Override
public void onConnectionSuspended(int cause) {
// The connection to Google Play services was lost for some reason. We call connect() to
// attempt to re-establish the connection.
Log.i(TAG, "Connection suspended");
mGoogleApiClient.connect();
}
then at the end
#Override
protected void onStop() {
super.onStop();
if (mGoogleApiClient.isConnected()) {
mGoogleApiClient.disconnect();
}
}
#Override
protected void onStart() {
super.onStart();
mGoogleApiClient.connect();
}
let me know if you don't understand anything

Android onLocationChanged does not called

I am trying to implement a background GPS location service in android using Service and LocationListener. The service is started (-> the onCreate and onStartCommand methods are called), but the onLocationChanged method never called.
Here is the code of my Service:
public class GpsHandler extends Service implements LocationListener{
private static final String TAG = "GpsHandler";
private LocationManager mLocationManager = null;
private static final int LOCATION_INTERVAL = 1000;
private static final float LOCATION_DISTANCE = 10f;
private final String LOCATION_BROADCAST_TAG = "android.LOCATION";
private final String LOCATION_EXTRA_TAG = "Location";
private Location mLastLocation = null;
#Nullable
#Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
return null;
}
#Override
public void onCreate()
{
Toast.makeText(this, "Service Started, onCreate", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
#Override
public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
// Let it continue running until it is stopped.
Toast.makeText(this, "Service Started, onStartCommand", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
if (mLocationManager == null)
{
mLocationManager = (LocationManager)getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
}
mLastLocation = new Location(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
try {
mLocationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, LOCATION_INTERVAL, LOCATION_DISTANCE, this);
} catch (java.lang.SecurityException ex) {
Log.i(TAG, "fail to request location update, ignore", ex);
} catch (IllegalArgumentException ex) {
Log.d(TAG, "gps provider does not exist " + ex.getMessage());
}
return START_STICKY;
}
#Override
public void onDestroy() {
super.onDestroy();
if (mLocationManager != null)
{
try {
mLocationManager.removeUpdates(this);
} catch (Exception ex) {
Log.i(TAG, "fail to remove location listners, ignore", ex);
}
}
Toast.makeText(this, "Service Destroyed", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
#Override
public void onProviderDisabled(String provider) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Settings.ACTION_LOCATION_SOURCE_SETTINGS);
startActivity(intent);
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Gps is turned off!! ",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
#Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location)
{
Toast.makeText(this, "Location Changed", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
if(isBetterLocation(location,mLastLocation))
{
mLastLocation.set(location);
Intent intent = new Intent(LOCATION_BROADCAST_TAG).putExtra(LOCATION_EXTRA_TAG, location);
sendBroadcast(intent);
}
}
#Override
public void onProviderEnabled(String provider){}
#Override
public void onStatusChanged(String provider, int status, Bundle extras){}
private boolean isBetterLocation(Location location, Location currentBestLocation) {
if (currentBestLocation == null) {
// A new location is always better than no location
return true;
}
// Check whether the new location fix is newer or older
long timeDelta = location.getTime() - currentBestLocation.getTime();
boolean isSignificantlyNewer = timeDelta > 1000*30;//30000ms = 30 sec
boolean isNewer = timeDelta > 0;
// If it's been more than two minutes since the current location, use the new location
// because the user has likely moved
if (isSignificantlyNewer)
{
return true;
// If the new location is more than two minutes older, it must be worse
}
// Check whether the new location fix is more or less accurate
int accuracyDelta = (int) (location.getAccuracy() - currentBestLocation.getAccuracy());
boolean isLessAccurate = accuracyDelta > 0;
boolean isMoreAccurate = accuracyDelta < 0;
boolean isSignificantlyLessAccurate = accuracyDelta > 200;
// Check if the old and new location are from the same provider
boolean isFromSameProvider = isSameProvider(location.getProvider(),
currentBestLocation.getProvider());
// Determine location quality using a combination of timeliness and accuracy
if (isMoreAccurate) {
return true;
} else if (isNewer && !isLessAccurate) {
return true;
} else if (isNewer && !isSignificantlyLessAccurate && isFromSameProvider) {
return true;
}
return false;
}
/** Checks whether two providers are the same */
private boolean isSameProvider(String provider1, String provider2) {
if (provider1 == null) {
return provider2 == null;
}
return provider1.equals(provider2);
}
}
Finally I have found the solution. I have tried to debug it with an other emulator (Originally I have used Pixel C emulator) and now it works flawless. So it is just a Studio Bug, the code is working.I have also restructured the code a bit, removing some useless functions:
Working code:
public class GpsHandler extends Service implements LocationListener{
private static final String TAG = "GpsHandler";
private LocationManager mLocationManager = null;
private static final int LOCATION_INTERVAL = 0;
private static final float LOCATION_DISTANCE = 0f;
private final String LOCATION_BROADCAST_TAG = "android.LOCATION";
private final String LOCATION_EXTRA_TAG = "Location";
private Location mLastLocation = null;
#Nullable
#Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
return null;
}
#Override
public void onCreate()
{
Toast.makeText(this, "Service Started, onCreate", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
#Override
public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
// Let it continue running until it is stopped.
Toast.makeText(this, "Service Started, onStartCommand", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
if (mLocationManager == null)
{
mLocationManager = (LocationManager)getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
}
mLastLocation = new Location(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
try {
mLocationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, LOCATION_INTERVAL, LOCATION_DISTANCE, this);
mLastLocation.set(mLocationManager.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER));
} catch (java.lang.SecurityException ex) {
Log.i(TAG, "fail to request location update, ignore", ex);
} catch (IllegalArgumentException ex) {
Log.d(TAG, "gps provider does not exist " + ex.getMessage());
}
return START_STICKY;
}
#Override
public void onDestroy() {
super.onDestroy();
if (mLocationManager != null)
{
try {
mLocationManager.removeUpdates(this);
} catch (Exception ex) {
Log.i(TAG, "fail to remove location listners, ignore", ex);
}
}
Toast.makeText(this, "Service Destroyed", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
#Override
public void onProviderDisabled(String provider) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Settings.ACTION_LOCATION_SOURCE_SETTINGS);
startActivity(intent);
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Gps is turned off!! ",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
#Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location)
{
Toast.makeText(this, "Location Changed", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
if(location.getAccuracy()<4*mLastLocation.getAccuracy())
{
mLastLocation.set(location);
Intent intent = new Intent(LOCATION_BROADCAST_TAG).putExtra(LOCATION_EXTRA_TAG, location);
sendBroadcast(intent);
}
}
#Override
public void onProviderEnabled(String provider){}
#Override
public void onStatusChanged(String provider, int status, Bundle extras){}
}
