That's a good way, but an easier way to do it is if you don't mind opening an intent is to

open the url in the browser, which invokes google maps or any other navigator.

Like the following,

 Uri uri = Uri
                    .parse("http://maps.google.com/maps?&saddr=" + mCurrentLatitude+","+mCurrentLongitude+"&daddr="+ mLatitude +"," +mLongitude);
              Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri);
              startActivity(intent);
