First thing no need MapAcitvity for get current location, you just have to use LoacaionManager, but you have to use GoogleMap API

This is best question for getCurrentLocation.

Using LocationListener you can get Location Updates, from The Location Manager. You need to get Location from GPS PROVIDER, which returns location from gps receiver, and another option you have by NETWORK PROVIDER, which will return location of network, which is tower, wifi point, etc.
