I am trying to get to last known Location with the aid of GoogleApiClient
just when the Map
activity launches. I followed the guide in the link:
https://developer.android.com/training/location/retrieve-current.html
It works but the app craches sometime and I am getting the error below.
I tried to put mGoogleApiClient.connect()
inside the onReadyMap()
but this method is never called in my case.
How can I fix it?
Error:

Map activity:
public class Map extends FragmentActivity implements OnMapReadyCallback, ConnectionCallbacks, OnConnectionFailedListener{
GoogleMap map;
GoogleApiClient mGoogleApiClient;
Location mLastLocation;
Marker myLocatMarker;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.map);
SupportMapFragment mapFragment = (SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager()
.findFragmentById(R.id.map);
mapFragment.getMapAsync(this);
buildGoogleApiClient();
mGoogleApiClient.connect();
}
private boolean initMap() {
if (map == null) {
SupportMapFragment mapFrag = (SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager()
.findFragmentById(R.id.map);
map = mapFrag.getMap();
}
return (map != null);
}
@Override
protected void onNewIntent(Intent intent) {
super.onNewIntent(intent);
........
if (initMap()) {
gotoLocation(id, latitude, longitude, route_dirc);
} else {
Toast.makeText(this, "Map not avialable", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT)
.show();
}
}
protected synchronized void buildGoogleApiClient() {
mGoogleApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(this)
.addConnectionCallbacks(this)
.addOnConnectionFailedListener(this)
.addApi(LocationServices.API)
.build();
System.out.println("ABC buildGoogleApiClient map was invoked: ");
}
@Override
public void onConnected(Bundle arg0) {
mLastLocation = LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.getLastLocation(
mGoogleApiClient);
if (mLastLocation != null) {
double lng = mLastLocation.getLongitude();
double lat = mLastLocation.getLatitude();
if(myLocatMarker != null){
myLocatMarker.remove();
}
LatLng ll = new LatLng(lat, lng);
MarkerOptions markerOpt = new MarkerOptions().title("my location")
.position(ll)
.icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.fromResource(R.drawable.myloc));
System.out.println("ABC onConnected map: "+ lat + " ; " + lng);
myLocatMarker = map.addMarker(markerOpt);
}
}
}
When I call mGoogleApiClient.connect();
in this way, onMapReady() is not being invoked in my case.
@Override
public void onMapReady(GoogleMap arg0) {
mGoogleApiClient.connect();
System.out.println("ABC onMapReady");
}

Where are you hiding your onMapReady function? It isn't in your code.
This is correct implementation of what you need:
public class Map extends FragmentActivity implements OnMapReadyCallback, GoogleApiClient.ConnectionCallbacks, GoogleApiClient.OnConnectionFailedListener {
GoogleMap map;
GoogleApiClient mGoogleApiClient;
Location mLastLocation;
Marker myLocatMarker;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.map);
SupportMapFragment mapFragment = (SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map);
buildGoogleApiClient();
mapFragment.getMapAsync(new OnMapReadyCallback() {
@Override
public void onMapReady(GoogleMap googleMap) {
map = googleMap;
mGoogleApiClient.connect();
}
});
}
protected synchronized void buildGoogleApiClient() {
mGoogleApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(this)
.addConnectionCallbacks(this)
.addOnConnectionFailedListener(this)
.addApi(LocationServices.API)
.build();
System.out.println("ABC buildGoogleApiClient map was invoked: ");
}
@Override
public void onConnected(Bundle arg0) {
mLastLocation = LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.getLastLocation(mGoogleApiClient);
if (mLastLocation != null) {
double lng = mLastLocation.getLongitude();
double lat = mLastLocation.getLatitude();
if (myLocatMarker != null) {
myLocatMarker.remove();
}
LatLng ll = new LatLng(lat, lng);
MarkerOptions markerOpt = new MarkerOptions().title("my location")
.position(ll)
.icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.fromResource(R.drawable.myloc));
System.out.println("ABC onConnected map: " + lat + " ; " + lng);
myLocatMarker = map.addMarker(markerOpt);
}
}
}
