Try this code,

 LocationManager locationManager =(LocationManager) getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
 locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(
                LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, WLConstants.DELAY_HOUR, gpsl
                        .getMinDistance(), gpsl);

and to stop the GPS try 

locationManager.removeUpdates(gpsl);

Give this after u complete ur time period.
