Could you please detail what you would like to achieve?
Origin and destination are just 2 positions on the map. You can retrieve these in multiple ways. You could select them by clicking on the map, entering an address into a geocoder that would translate the address to a geolocation. Therefore you could make use of the Mapbox Places Plugin.
This example lets you select features of the map by clicking on it. You can adapt it and return the geolocation, which in turn you could use as your destination: https://docs.mapbox.com/android/maps/examples/query-a-map-feature/
You can make use of the Mapbox locationComponent and retrieve the current device location, which you could utilize as your origin.
See this example: https://docs.mapbox.com/android/maps/examples/show-a-users-location/
In below snippet, you could use the location loc as origin:
private void enableLocationComponent(#NonNull Style loadedMapStyle) {
if (PermissionsManager.areLocationPermissionsGranted(this)) {
LocationComponent locationComponent = map.getLocationComponent();
Location loc = locationComponent.getLastKnownLocation();

Android Google Places: Not returning selected place

Followed the tutorial here.
http://www.startingandroid.com/google-places-api-tutorial-for-android/
However, when searching something in the search bar, selecting one from the suggested list, then pressing the Pick Location button, the map displays the user's current location and not the place he/she selected. Can anyone provide a solution for this?

Mock Location using FusedLocation

My question is I've got my method for mock location setup to an onclick button, however, I've got a location that is stored in a variable called lbldummylocation. both latitude and longitude coordinates are in one textview.
When I click my button setPhoneLocation (the method of the same name)
is invoked and the location stored in that textview(lbldummylocation) becomes my phone's location!
My Location Manager points Null and can't set textview in lat/long? I am using GoogleMPIClient and FusedLocation. please help! any ideas?

This is very easy to in Google Map API V2 . If you would like to do this then you can follow this reference link:
Go this stackoverflow link
This man already give useful solution. I have done the same way as this site told.
For your facility I have written the main things:
1.create a list of LatLng points such as:
List<LatLng> routePoints;
2.Add the route points to the list (could/should be done in a loop):
routePoints.add(mapPoint);
3.Create a Polyline and feed it the list of LatLng points as such:
Polyline route = map.addPolyline(new PolylineOptions()
.width(_strokeWidth)
.color(_pathColor)
.geodesic(true)
.zIndex(z));
route.setPoints(routePoints);
Try this and give feedback!!!

Google Maps v2 my location with Google Play

I would like to ask about a strange situation, that happened during usage of Google Maps API v2.
There is an error in logcat that says:
The Google Play services resources were not found. Check your project
configuration to ensure that the resources are included.
The things that I have:
Google Map is displayed perfectly along with markers - I have acquired relevant code from Google.
google-play-services.jar library is included perfectly with Eclipse
(project->properties->android->add...).
The checkboxes in Eclipse (project->properties->java build path->order build path) are all checked properly.
The code
GooglePlayServicesUtil.isGooglePlayServicesAvailable(context);
returns true.
This code is running at a device, Nexus 4, not emulator.
I am trying to invoke event, that would allow me to get current position by this class:
public class FindMyLocationManager implements LocationListener, LocationSource
{
private OnLocationChangedListener mListener;
private LocationManager locationManager;
private GoogleMap map;
private Context ctx;
private int intervalTime;
private int intervalDistance;
public void setMap(GoogleMap map)
{
this.map = map;
}
public int getIntervalTime()
{
return intervalTime;
}
public void setIntervalTime(int intervalTime)
{
this.intervalTime = intervalTime;
}
public int getIntervalDistance()
{
return intervalDistance;
}
public void setIntervalDistance(int intervalDistance)
{
this.intervalDistance = intervalDistance;
}
public FindMyLocationManager(Context mContext)
{
this.ctx = mContext;
locationManager = (LocationManager)mContext.getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
}
#Override
public void activate(OnLocationChangedListener listener)
{
mListener = listener;
isGooglePlayOk(); //returns true
if(isGPSAvailable())
{
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, intervalTime, intervalDistance, this);
}
else if(isCompassAvailable())
{
Log.d("DEBUG", "No GPS here");
}
else
{
Log.d("DEBUG", "Nothing here");
}
}
private boolean isGPSAvailable()
{
return locationManager.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
}
public boolean isGooglePlayOk()
{
int isAvailable = GooglePlayServicesUtil.isGooglePlayServicesAvailable(ctx);
if(isAvailable == ConnectionResult.SUCCESS)
{
Toast.makeText(ctx, "Can connect to Goolge Play", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
return true;
}
else if(GooglePlayServicesUtil.isUserRecoverableError(isAvailable))
{
Dialog dialog = GooglePlayServicesUtil.getErrorDialog(isAvailable, (Activity)ctx, 9001);
dialog.show();
}
else
{
Toast.makeText(ctx, "Can't connect to Goolge Play", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
return false;
}
private boolean isCompassAvailable()
{
PackageManager pm =
ctx.getPackageManager();
return pm.hasSystemFeature(PackageManager.FEATURE_SENSOR_COMPASS);
}
#Override
public void deactivate()
{
locationManager.removeUpdates((android.location.LocationListener)this);
mListener = null;
}
public void restart()
{
locationManager.removeUpdates((android.location.LocationListener)this);
if(isGPSAvailable())
{
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, intervalTime, intervalDistance, this);
}
else if(isCompassAvailable())
{
Log.d("DEBUG", "No GPS");
}
else
{
Log.d("DEBUG", "Nothing at all");
}
}
// the compiler never enters here
#Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location)
{
Toast.makeText(this.ctx, location.getLatitude() + " " + location.getLongitude(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
if(mListener != null)
{
mListener.onLocationChanged(location);
}
map.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(new LatLng(location.getLatitude(), location.getLongitude())));
}
#Override
public void onProviderDisabled(String arg0)
{
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
#Override
public void onProviderEnabled(String arg0)
{
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
#Override
public void onStatusChanged(String arg0, int arg1, Bundle arg2)
{
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
}
And here is the usage of above code:
// this method is called in many places in the program, like onCreate of my view with map or onResume
private void setUpMapIfNeeded()
{
if(map == null)
{
map = ((SupportMapFragment)getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map)).getMap();
if(map != null)
{
map.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
locationManager.setMap(map);
locationManager.setIntervalDistance(0);
locationManager.setIntervalTime(0);
map.setLocationSource(locationManager); //Here I apply the object from above class
//if(currentModel != null)
//currentModel = getCurrentModel(); TODO
//moveCameraInstantly(map.);
focusCamera();
fillMapWithMarkers(FindMyApplication.MAP_MARKER_MODELS);
}
}
}
UPDATE
So it seems that the error itself is harmless, but I still don't get the onLocationChanged event.
UPDATE 2
This code is based on How to get My Location changed event with Google Maps android API v2? .

If i understand correctly you have defined the location update method, but have not started requesting the location updates.
To send the request for location updates, create a location client and a request in onCreate():
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
...
mLocationClient = new LocationClient(this, this, this);
mLocationRequest = LocationRequest.create();
}
Then connect it in onStart():
protected void onStart() {
...
mLocationClient.connect();
}
Then make the update request in onConnected():
public void onConnected(Bundle dataBundle) {
...
mLocationClient.requestLocationUpdates(mLocationRequest, this);
}
Here is a complete guide on how to do this correctly:
http://developer.android.com/training/location/receive-location-updates.html#StartUpdates
The Google Play services resources were not found. error is a common bug in the library.

if the map shows like it should then you did everything correctly, there is something in the library that is causing the problem that google needs to fix. I get this error in my app even when I dont use google maps.
since you have google play service you should be using the new location API and not the old one.
http://developer.android.com/training/location/index.html

EDIT
Also this piece of code seems suspicious:
if(map == null) {
map = <something new>;
if(map != null) {
<do thing>
}
}
Is your map always null before entering this method?
EDIT2
map.setOnMyLocationChangeListener(new GoogleMap.OnMyLocationChangeListener() {
#Override
public void onMyLocationChange(Location location) {
Log.d("DEBUG", "setOnMyLocationChangeListener");
setUpMapIfNeeded();
}
});
if it doesn't work, then try also:
map.setOnCameraChangeListener(new GoogleMap.OnCameraChangeListener() {
#Override
public onCameraChange(CameraPosition cameraPosition) {
Log.d("DEBUG", "setOnCameraChangeListener");
setUpMapIfNeeded();
}
});
I need log results on this.
