Please Use below code for get address.

try {
    Geocoder geo = new Geocoder(youractivityclassname.this.getApplicationContext(), Locale.getDefault());
    List<Address> addresses = geo.getFromLocation(latitude, longitude, 1);
    if (addresses.isEmpty()) {
        yourtextfieldname.setText("Waiting for Location");
    }
    else {
        if (addresses.size() > 0) {
            yourtextfieldname.setText(addresses.get(0).getFeatureName() + ", " + addresses.get(0).getLocality() +", " + addresses.get(0).getAdminArea() + ", " + addresses.get(0).getCountryName());
            //Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Address:- " + addresses.get(0).getFeatureName() + addresses.get(0).getAdminArea() + addresses.get(0).getLocality(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        }
    }
}
catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace(); // getFromLocation() may sometimes fail
}

And see below link for more information and complete example.
