Following should help, please note that this is available only on API level 19+:

private void checkLocationModeSettings() {
    int mode = Settings.Secure.getInt(getContentResolver(), Settings.Secure.LOCATION_MODE,
            Settings.Secure.LOCATION_MODE_OFF);

    switch (mode) {
        case Settings.Secure.LOCATION_MODE_SENSORS_ONLY:
            Log.d(TAG, "Sensor only mode");
            break;
        case Settings.Secure.LOCATION_MODE_BATTERY_SAVING:
            Log.d(TAG, "Battery saving mode");
            break;
        case Settings.Secure.LOCATION_MODE_HIGH_ACCURACY:
            Log.d(TAG, "High accuracy mode");
            break;
        case Settings.Secure.LOCATION_MODE_OFF:
        default:
            Log.d(TAG, "Location access is disabled");
    }
}
