Is there any way to jump to nexy activity after checking if GPS is enabled
or after turning on GPS.

float latitude = (float) location.getLatitude();
float longitude = (float) location.getLongitude();
Intent i = new Intent(Main.this, NextActivity.class);
i.putExtra("Long", longitude);
i.putExtra("Lat", latitude);
startActivity(i);
}

I think the problem is that you've forgotten to even use the LocationManager that you instantiated. Try adding this line after instantiating the listener (at the end of your onCreate):
manager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 0, 0, listener);
These will register for location updates using the named provider, and a pending intent.

Google Maps Android - tracking location changes

I'm developing a tracking application, for which I would also like be able to continue tracking when the application is sent to background. For this purpose I implemented a LocationListener. But clearly I'm missing something here, because during runtime none of the debug printlns appear, so the application never enters any of the inherited LocationListener functions.

It is also worth mentioning, that I already try to attach an OnMyLocationChangeListener to my GoogleMap object, and it did track location changes, but not if the application was sent to background. Any ideas?

Android Google Maps v2 not showing Compass and Location Icon

I am not able to show the compass icon and the my location icon either. I have the code googleMap.getUiSettings.setMyLocationButtonEnabled(true) and googleMap.getUiSettings().setCompassEnabled(true); but it is not showing on the maps.

#Override

// check if map is created successfully or not
if (googleMap == null) {

.show();
}
}
}

}
#Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
googleMap.clear();
MarkerOptions marker = new MarkerOptions().position(new LatLng(location.getLatitude(), location.getLongitude()));
marker.title("Current location");
marker.icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.defaultMarker(BitmapDescriptorFactory.HUE_CYAN));
googleMap.addMarker(marker);
googleMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(new LatLng(location.getLatitude(), location.getLongitude()), 16));
}

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
}
}
The rest of the code works such as markers and what not. I have tried putting the code for location and compass in initializeMap() but it still does not show up. I would appreciate any help. Thank you!

You havent enabled the my-location layer.Check this link for more details
So please do
googleMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
before
googleMap.getUiSettings().setMyLocationButtonEnabled(true);
googleMap.getUiSettings().setCompassEnabled(true);
This will make your setMyLocationButton come up..
And,the compass icon will appear only if you rotate the map to not align to north.

Publish libgdx game to Google Play

I just finished up publishing an app to the Google Play store, but when I downloaded it from the store on another phone, it didn't run at all. I set up my libgdx app project based off of this website:
http://obviam.net/index.php/getting-started-in-android-game-development-with-libgdx-create-a-working-prototype-in-a-day-tutorial-part-1/comment-page-2/
which basically had me type all my game code in a Java Project, then launch that from an Android Application Project.
Here is my code for the Android Application Project. Any ideas why this wouldn't launch from the Google Play Store? I'm guessing because the APK does not include the Java Project code, but how do I make it include that?
package ball.activity;
import greenball.activity.GreenBall;
import com.badlogic.gdx.backends.android.AndroidApplicationConfiguration;
import com.badlogic.gdx.ApplicationListener;
import com.badlogic.gdx.backends.android.AndroidApplication;
import activity.ball.greenball_android.R;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.content.pm.ActivityInfo;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MotionEvent;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnTouchListener;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class GreenBallActivity extends AndroidApplication implements ApplicationListener {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_green_ball);
AndroidApplicationConfiguration cfg = new AndroidApplicationConfiguration();
cfg.useGL20 = false;
setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT);
initialize(new GreenBall(), cfg);
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.green_ball, menu);
return true;
}
#Override
public void create() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
#Override
public void resize(int width, int height) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
#Override
public void render() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
#Override

}
#Override

}
#Override

}

It sounds like there may be a problem with how your app is signed. It would have worked on your test device with just a debug key, but not on any other device. Android requires all apps to be signed before it will install them.

Localisation Service doesn't start android

I'm working on an android map and i'm trying to use Service class to find the current location of users. I had already succeed to do that whitout Service (directly in the main activity) but given the fact that i'll do network operations to find adresses and points of interest i thinked it was a good training to try Service with current location.
But the problem is my service doesn't start at all even if i reported it in the manifest
my class which extends Service :
`
package toutel.testcarte;

// Context ctx = getApplicationContext();
GeoPoint myposition = new GeoPoint(location.getLatitude(),
location.getLongitude());
mapController.animateTo(myposition);
mapController.setCenter(myposition);
mapController.setZoom(17);
Marker marker = new Marker(mapView);
marker.setPosition(myposition);
marker.setAnchor(Marker.ANCHOR_CENTER, Marker.ANCHOR_BOTTOM);
mapView.getOverlays().add(marker);
mapView.invalidate();
try {
Thread.sleep(5 * 1000);
}
catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
mapView.getOverlays().clear();
}

super.onCreate();
}

return super.onStartCommand(intent, flags, startId);
}
public void onDestroy() {
super.onDestroy();
lm.removeUpdates(mylocationlistener);
}
}
`
Im starting the service in the main activity with
startService(new Intent(MainActivity.this, FindMe.class));
and i added the service in the manifest :
<service android:name = "toutel.testcarte.FindMe"> </service>
So what am i doing wrong ?
Thanks !
