How to handle the result of an Activity?

I am starting the location services intent in order to get the location updates from the user:

Intent intent = new Intent(Settings.ACTION_LOCATION_SOURCE_SETTINGS);
startActivityForResult(intent,100);

enter image description here

I then try to check the resultCode inside onActivityResult method(for now I'm simply toasting):

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, @Nullable Intent data) {
   Toast.makeText(this, "Result Code: " + resultCode, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}

I was expecting the resultCode to show a different result if the user toggles the location on or off. However I only get 0 as the result.

What criteria should I use to get whether or not the GPS was enabled?

The documentation does not say that you get a result from that Intent.

Use LocationManager and isProviderEnabled() to determine if your desired provider is enabled.
