Toast Widget on Android 2.3.3

Hi I have a problem with my app. When I create a new project for Android 2.2 or lower my app works fine and my toast shows on screen but when I create a new project for 2.3 or 2.3.3 with the same code the toast does not appear at all. Also I have added the Textview update with in the main OnCreate thread but still me textview does not update. I need to solve the toast issue mainly though. thanks

public class Location extends Activity  {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
static String Text;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main);


    LocationManager lm = (LocationManager)getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE); 
    final TextView tv = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.textView1);

    lm.requestLocationUpdates( LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 0, 0, new LocationListener() {



    private final String TAG = null;

    @Override
    public void onLocationChanged(android.location.Location location) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub

       Text = "My current location is: " + "Latitud = " + location.getLatitude() + "Longitud = "   + location.getLongitude(); 
       Context context = getApplicationContext();
       int duration = Toast.LENGTH_SHORT;
       Toast.makeText(context, Text, duration).show();
            tv.setText(Text);
        try
        {
            File root = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
            File gps = new File(root, "log.txt");




        BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(
                new FileWriter(gps,true)) ;

        out.write(Text);
        out.write("");
        out.close();

        }


        catch (IOException e) {


            Log.e(TAG, "Could not write file " + e.getMessage());

        }
    }

You have to call show() on the Toast.

Toast.makeText(context, Text, duration).show();

All you are doing is creating the Toast and not showing it.

The TextView update might be failing because of an Exception.
