Working on a project that gets the address from a database.
From those addresses i get the LatLng and pin them on a Google maps Activity.
I use this method to get LatLng from the address :
public LatLng getLocationFromAddress(Context context, String inputtedAddress) {
Geocoder coder = new Geocoder(context);
List<Address> address;
LatLng resLatLng = null;
try {
// May throw an IOException
address = coder.getFromLocationName(inputtedAddress, 5);
if (address == null) {
return null;
}
if (address.size() == 0) {
return null;
}
Address location = address.get(0);
location.getLatitude();
location.getLongitude();
resLatLng = new LatLng(location.getLatitude(), location.getLongitude());
} catch (IOException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
return resLatLng;
Until 2 days ago, it gave me 164 correct coordenates from 285 addresses. Some of the addresses gave LatLng null for some reason.
Without changing any code, now i get the following error for the first 8-10 calls to the geocoder :
W/System.err: java.io.IOException: Timed out waiting for response from server
W/System.err: at android.location.Geocoder.getFromLocationName(Geocoder.java:178)
After that, the rest give this error:
W/System.err: java.io.IOException: RPC failed with status 102
at android.location.Geocoder.getFromLocationName(Geocoder.java:178)
The exact line that gives the error is :
address = coder.getFromLocationName(inputtedAddress, 5);
EDIT:
After some more investigating i've found out that the Geocoder.java class has errors, missing some methods:
Would reinstalling Android Studio Work?
