Android: Facebook SDK make a post with location on the bottom

I'm trying to integrate posting to the users wall from within my app using the Facebook SDK. Simple Posting is no Problem but I'm trying to add the Location (on the Bottom of the Post behind the time) where the user actually is.

Any ideas? Thanks for the help!

This is simple, whenever you are making the Graph API POST call to https://graph.facebook.com/me/feed you should include a parameter place with a value of a Page ID associated with a Place. This is shown in the Graph API User documentation.

You can use Graph API search to locate any Page IDs near to a specified location by using a Graph API call like this:

https://graph.facebook.com/search?type=place&center=37.76,-122.427&distance=1000

Where center is the latitude and longitude and distance restricts how far away the place can be from that center.
