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

LocationListener mlocListener = new MyLocationListener(context);

mlocManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 1, 1,mlocL istener);

// syntax: mlocManager.requestLocationUpdates(provider, minTime, minDistance, listener)

you can set time and distance both in this method see ths syntax

you can use LocationListener which gets called when your location get changed and moreover you can provide time interval too

public void requestLocationUpdates (String provider, long minTime, float minDistance, LocationListener listener, Looper looper)
