getLastLocation google service

Question

I developed an app to get current location however I got nothing for the location, I also tried the solution in GoogleService failed to initialize but it didn't worked for me.

here is my main activity:

import android.Manifest;
import android.content.pm.PackageManager;
import android.location.Location;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.design.widget.FloatingActionButton;
import android.support.design.widget.Snackbar;

import com.google.android.gms.location.LocationServices;

public class GetLocation extends AppCompatActivity implements     GoogleApiClient.ConnectionCallbacks,     GoogleApiClient.OnConnectionFailedListener {

public GoogleApiClient mGoogleApiClient;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_get_location);
    Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
    setSupportActionBar(toolbar);

    FloatingActionButton fab = (FloatingActionButton) findViewById(R.id.fab);
    fab.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
            Snackbar.make(view, "Replace with your own action", Snackbar.LENGTH_LONG)
                    .setAction("Action", null).show();
        }
    });

//        mGoogleApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(this)
//                .addApi(Drive.API)
//                .addScope(Drive.SCOPE_FILE)
//                .build();

    // Create an instance of GoogleAPIClient.
    //if (mGoogleApiClient == null) {
        mGoogleApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(this)
                .addConnectionCallbacks(this)
                .addOnConnectionFailedListener(this)
                .addApi(LocationServices.API)
                .build();
   // }

}


protected void onStart() {
    mGoogleApiClient.connect();
    super.onStart();
}

protected void onStop() {
    mGoogleApiClient.disconnect();
    super.onStop();
}

@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
    getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_get_location, menu);
    return true;
}

@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
    // Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
    // automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
    // as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
    int id = item.getItemId();

    //noinspection SimplifiableIfStatement
    if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
        return true;
    }

    return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}



@Override
public void onConnected(Bundle connectionHint) {
    Location mLastLocation = LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.getLastLocation(
            mGoogleApiClient);
    if (mLastLocation != null) {
        TextView mLatitudeText = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.mLatitudeText);
        TextView mLongitudeText = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.mLongitudeText);
        mLatitudeText.setText(String.valueOf(mLastLocation.getLatitude()));
        mLongitudeText.setText(String.valueOf(mLastLocation.getLongitude()));
    }

}

@Override
public void onConnectionSuspended(int i) {
    TextView mLatitudeText = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.mLatitudeText);
    TextView mLongitudeText = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.mLongitudeText);
    mLatitudeText.setText("onConnectionSuspended");
    mLongitudeText.setText("onConnectionSuspended");
}

@Override
public void onConnectionFailed(ConnectionResult connectionResult) {
    TextView mLatitudeText = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.mLatitudeText);
    TextView mLongitudeText = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.mLongitudeText);
    mLatitudeText.setText(String.valueOf(connectionResult));
    mLongitudeText.setText("onConnectionFailed");

    }
   }

and here is my Logcat:

Answer 1

after couple of days searching and trying different advises, this is what I found that solve my problem:

1. My AVD had not proper API installed, the AVD has to have the API with google play option.

2. The android studio can't get the location, it doesn't have the access to your laptop or PC location service. To test if the app works well and is able to get the location, we have to use tools>android>andriod device monitor, then in emulator control tab you can send the location manually to the emulator to get the location.

Answer 2

For current location u can try this code:

LocationManager location_manager = (LocationManager) getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
            LocationListener listner = new MyLocationListener();
            location_manager.requestLocationUpdates(
                    LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER, 2000, 2000, listner);
            location_manager
                    .getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);

 public class MyLocationListener implements LocationListener {

        StringBuilder str;


        @Override
        public void onLocationChanged(Location arg0) {

            latitude = arg0.getLatitude();
            longitude = arg0.getLongitude();

            try {

                geocoder = new Geocoder(MainActivity.this, Locale.ENGLISH);
                addresses = geocoder.getFromLocation(latitude, longitude, 1);

                if (geocoder.isPresent()) {

                    Address returnAddress = addresses.get(0);

                    String city = returnAddress.getLocality();
                    String zipCode = returnAddress.getPostalCode();



                }
            } catch (IOException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }

        @Override
        public void onProviderDisabled(String arg0) {
        }

        @Override
        public void onProviderEnabled(String arg0) {
        }

        @Override
        public void onStatusChanged(String arg0, int arg1, Bundle arg2) {
        }
    }
