We're trying to get the current location to show as a marker on the map, however it sets the location to 0,0 (long,lat) instead.
On the phone we get a notification saying "Searching for GPS" whenever we run the app.
This is all the code regarding permissions for GPS & the actual location requests:
public class MapsActivity extends FragmentActivity implements OnMapReadyCallback, LocationListener, GoogleApiClient.OnConnectionFailedListener , GoogleApiClient.ConnectionCallbacks {
private GoogleApiClient googleApiClient;
private Location mijnLocation;
private LatLng latLng;
private LocationManager locationManager;
private double latitude;
private double longitude;
@Override
protected void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.drawerlayout);
if(ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, new String[] {android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION}, 1);
}
addMarkerButton();
if (googleApiClient == null) {
googleApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(this)
.addConnectionCallbacks(this)
.addOnConnectionFailedListener(this)
.addApi(LocationServices.API)
.build();
}
googleApiClient.connect();
SupportMapFragment mapFragment = (SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager()
.findFragmentById(R.id.map);
mapFragment.getMapAsync(this);
locationManager = (LocationManager) getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
if(ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 0, 0, this);
Location location = locationManager.getLastKnownLocation(locationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
mijnLocation = location;
}
}
@Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
latitude = location.getLatitude();
longitude = location.getLongitude();
}
@Override
public void onMapReady(GoogleMap googleMap) {
if(mijnLocation == null){
mijnLocation = new Location("GPS");
mijnLocation.setLatitude(latitude);
mijnLocation.setLongitude(longitude);
latLng = new LatLng(mijnLocation.getLatitude(),mijnLocation.getLongitude());
}
else{
latLng = new LatLng(mijnLocation.getLatitude(),mijnLocation.getLongitude());
}
googleMap.getUiSettings().setMyLocationButtonEnabled(true);
googleMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().position(latLng).title("AP Hogeschool"));
googleMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(latLng));
}
@Override
public void onConnected(@Nullable Bundle bundle) {
Log.v("google api connected", Boolean.toString(googleApiClient.isConnected()));
try{
try{
mijnLocation = LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.getLastLocation(googleApiClient);
}
catch (NullPointerException e){
Log.v("error", "spoof toegevoegd");
mijnLocation = new Location("GPS");
mijnLocation.setLatitude(51.229791);
mijnLocation.setLongitude(4.416028);
}
if(mijnLocation == null){
Log.v("error", "spoof toegevoegd");
mijnLocation = new Location("GPS");
mijnLocation.setLatitude(51.229791);
mijnLocation.setLongitude(4.416028);
}
}
catch(SecurityException e){
Log.v("LOCATION ERROR", e.toString());
}
}
(In the last part we're also adding a "spoofed" location in case it can't find the current location or access the GPS, but it doesn't come that far)
There's a few more methods, but they don't affect the location. I can provide more code if necessary. Thank you
