Can you help me please and explain me in details what i do now?

Thank you very much

Answer 1

I am using this code to get the Latitude and longitude of current location:

LocationManager locManager = (LocationManager)getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);

locManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER,1000L,500.0f, locationListener);
Location location = locManager.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);

double latitude=0;
double longitude=0;
latitude = location.getLatitude();
longitude = location.getLongitude();
