        String str = "Latitude: "+location.getLatitude()+"Longitude: "+location.getLongitude();

        Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), str, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    }

}

In this part exactly:

locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 1000, 3, this);

It says cannot resolve the method. I tried some "solutions" I found here, but none of them worked! Can you help me please

Answer 1

dont pass this param;(remove implements LocationListener from that activity) instead do like this

LocationListener myLocationListener= new LocationListener() {
        @Override
        public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
            Log.d("dj","on location changed: "+location.getLatitude()+" & "+location.getLongitude());
            toastLocation(location);
        }

        @Override
        public void onStatusChanged(String provider, int status, Bundle extras) {

        }

        @Override
        public void onProviderEnabled(String provider) {

        }

        @Override
        public void onProviderDisabled(String provider) {

        }
    };
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER, 2000, 0, myLocationListener);


 private void toastLocation(final Location location){

    Handler handler = new Handler(Looper.getMainLooper());

    handler.post(new Runnable() {

        @Override
        public void run() {
            Toast.makeText(ServiceProvide.this.getApplicationContext(),"Location latitude: "+ location.getLatitude()
                    +"longitude: "+location.getLongitude(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }
    });
}
