Any help is appreciated.

Answer 1

In your Activity, add this receiver method:

@Receiver(actions = "GPSLocationUpdates", local = true)
void receiveLocationUpdates() {
 // TODO
}

And broadcast your Intent as usual from the Service:

Intent intent = new Intent("GPSLocationUpdates");
LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(context).sendBroadcast(intent);
