error on public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String[] permissions, int[] grantResults

private final Context mContext;

// flag for GPS status
boolean isGPSEnabled = false;

boolean isNetworkEnabled = false;

// flag for GPS status

Location location; // location
double latitude; // latitude
double longitude; // longitude

// The minimum distance to change Updates in meters
private static final long MIN_DISTANCE_CHANGE_FOR_UPDATES = 10; // 10 meters

// The minimum time between updates in milliseconds
private static final long MIN_TIME_BW_UPDATES = 1000 * 60 * 1; // 1 minute

Answer 1

onRequestPermissionsResult is a method which should be outside the current method

public Location getLocation(){
    //...code
      if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermissio... ) {

    // ERROR : cannot have function declaration inside another function
          public void onRequestPermissionsResult(...) {
                switch (requestCode) {//..code}
          }
}

Note: you cannot have this in a Service class , you need some Activity to ask permission

ActivityCompat.OnRequestPermissionsResultCallback is implemented by FragmentActivity which is a parent of AppCompatActivity so it's not implemented by Service so you need to implement the runtime-permission code is some FragmentActivity | AppCompatActivity or you can check and show a notification (in case of no permission or probably a dialog) and redirect user to Activity to proceed with permission code.
