You can also using telnet to set the emulator's location

  1. open a command shell

  2. conect to the emulator with the command: telnet localhost

  3. to enter a fixed location execute the command:

  4. geo fix longitude latitude

go to eclipse DDMS perspective,Via

Windows>Open Perspective > other > DDMS (You can type to filter the list)

find Emulator Control tab

then inside Location Control box

You can send lat, long to emulator to simulate gps changes.

if you cannot find Emulator Control, just open it via:

Windows > show view > other > Emulator Control (You can type to filter the list)

You'll find this window in the DDMS perspective in Eclipse. This way you can test your application with various location values.
