Get address from LatLng - android

Right now I currently am displaying the Latitude/Longitude within my Android Studio MapsActivity Marker by using the following:
LatLng latLng = new LatLng(location.getLatitude(), location.getLongitude());
MarkerOptions markerOptions = new MarkerOptions();
markerOptions.position(latLng);
markerOptions.title(String.valueOf(latLng));
markerOptions.icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.defaultMarker(BitmapDescriptorFactory.HUE_AZURE));
currentLocationMarker = mMap.addMarker((markerOptions));
mMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(latLng));
My goal is to display the entire address.

Use geocoder to get address from latlng
Geocoder geocoder;
List<Address> addresses;
geocoder = new Geocoder(this, Locale.getDefault());
addresses = geocoder.getFromLocation(latitude, longitude, 1); // Here 1 represent max location result to returned, by documents it recommended 1 to 5
String address = addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(0); // If any additional address line present than only, check with max available address lines by getMaxAddressLineIndex()
String city = addresses.get(0).getLocality();

maybe using google map api can help you to get location detail
Geocoder geocoder;
List<Address> addresses;
geocoder = new Geocoder(this, Locale.getDefault());
addresses = geocoder.getFromLocation(latitude, longitude, 1);
String address = addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(0);
String city = addresses.get(0).getLocality();
String state = addresses.get(0).getAdminArea();
String country = addresses.get(0).getCountryName();
String postalCode = addresses.get(0).getPostalCode();
String knownName = addresses.get(0).getFeatureName();

How google map fetching address even android device is offline

I just created a map activity with some markers and while click on marker title fetching address of marked position for educational purpose,Everything works fine.
It's fetching address even if device is not connected to internet. I didn't given internet permission in manifest.
ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION is the only permission given to the app.
My Question is: How application able to get address even device is in offline mode? What's the idea or technology behind it!!?
Nb: I never used getLastKnownLocation method in my code. Both Wifi and gps off and no sim card inserted.
Here is my code :
public class MapsActivity extends FragmentActivity implements OnMapReadyCallback {
private GoogleMap mMap;
TextView mapPosition;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_maps);
mapPosition = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textplace);
// Obtain the SupportMapFragment and get notified when the map is ready to be used.
SupportMapFragment mapFragment = (SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager()
.findFragmentById(R.id.map);
mapFragment.getMapAsync(this);
}
/**
* Manipulates the map once available.
* This callback is triggered when the map is ready to be used.
* This is where we can add markers or lines, add listeners or move the camera. In this case,
* we just add a marker near Sydney, Australia.
* If Google Play services is not installed on the device, the user will be prompted to install
* it inside the SupportMapFragment. This method will only be triggered once the user has
* installed Google Play services and returned to the app.
*/
#Override
public void onMapReady(GoogleMap googleMap) {
mMap = googleMap;
// double lat = Double.valueOf(8.524139);
// Add a marker in Sydney and move the camera
LatLng sydney = new LatLng(-34, 151); LatLng ind = new LatLng(8.524139, 76.936638);
mMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().position(sydney).title("Marker in Sydney"));
mMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().position(ind).title("Marker in Trivandrum"));
mMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(ind));
mMap.setOnMarkerClickListener(new GoogleMap.OnMarkerClickListener() {
#Override
public boolean onMarkerClick(Marker marker) {
return false;
}
});
mMap.setOnInfoWindowClickListener(new GoogleMap.OnInfoWindowClickListener() {
#Override
public void onInfoWindowClick(Marker marker) {
Geocoder geocoder;
List<Address> addresses;
geocoder = new Geocoder(MapsActivity.this, Locale.getDefault());
try {
addresses = geocoder.getFromLocation(marker.getPosition().latitude, marker.getPosition().longitude, 1);
// Here 1 represent max location result to returned, by documents it recommended 1 to 5
String address = addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(0);
// If any additional address line present than only, check with max available address lines by getMaxAddressLineIndex()
String city = addresses.get(0).getLocality();
String state = addresses.get(0).getAdminArea();
String country = addresses.get(0).getCountryName();
String postalCode = addresses.get(0).getPostalCode();
String knownName = addresses.get(0).getFeatureName();
String countrycode = addresses.get(0).getCountryCode();
mapPosition.setText(""+ address);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
});
}
}
It appears to be cached memory is the answer . I have checked first time with internet, So app stores it cache thats why i still get map loading and getting address of the same lat and lng in device offline.
Code mentioned in the question works fine. Thanks to #pskink.
You can get latitude and longitude it by network, gps or location.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER) (without internet).
See this https://stackoverflow.com/a/22085632/3864698. Maybe it can help you.
and then from latitude and longitude you can get full address using geocoder class as :
Geocoder geocoder;
List<Address> addresses;
geocoder = new Geocoder(this, Locale.getDefault());
addresses = geocoder.getFromLocation(latitude, longitude, 1); // Here 1 represent max location result to returned, by documents it recommended 1 to 5
String address = addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(0); // If any additional address line present than only, check with max available address lines by getMaxAddressLineIndex()
String city = addresses.get(0).getLocality();
String state = addresses.get(0).getAdminArea();
String country = addresses.get(0).getCountryName();
String postalCode = addresses.get(0).getPostalCode();
String knownName = addresses.get(0).getFeatureName();

android-How to check location is in special area?

I want to use google map in my android app in specific area. for example in special country. How can I check that my current location is in that place?
updates:
for example how to check that I am in New Delhi city
You can try using LatLngBounds and LatLngBounds.contains()
private LatLngBounds NewDelhi = new LatLngBounds(your special area SE LatLng , NE LatLng );
if(NewDelhi.contains(your location LatLng))
//Do something
Get city name from Location:
Geocoder geocoder = new Geocoder(this, Locale.getDefault());
List<Address> addresses = geocoder.getFromLocation(myLocation.getLatitude(), myLocation.getLongitude(), 1);
String cityName = addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(0);
//String stateName = addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(1);
//String countryName = addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(2);

Getting current location in textview

whenever I click on a particular location in Google Map, I want that location's name to be displayed in a text view. Is there any way I can do it?
Get lat_lng value for particular location, then lat lng value pass to geocoder method.
public void getgetLocationAddress(Context context,double lat,double lng){
Geocoder geocoder;
List<Address> addresses;
geocoder = new Geocoder(context, Locale.getDefault());
try {
addresses = geocoder.getFromLocation(lat, lng, 1); // Here 1 represent max location result to returned, by documents it recommended 1 to 5
address = addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(0); // If any additional address line present than only, check with max available address lines by getMaxAddressLineIndex()
city = addresses.get(0).getLocality();
String state = addresses.get(0).getAdminArea();
country = addresses.get(0).getCountryName();
// System.out.println("SDK_DATA"+address+"..."+city +country);
//Here address set to your textview
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} }

Error in getting address of a location in android

based on this tutorial: http://www.androidhive.info/2012/07/android-gps-location-manager-tutorial/. I can now get latitude and longtitude based on location. Now I', trying to get the exact address with Geocoder: (Main is the class code above belongs to)
GPSTracker GPS = new GPSTracker(Main.this);
double latitude = GPS.getLatitude();
double longitude = GPS.getLongitude();
Geocoder geocoder;
List<Address> addresses;
geocoder = new Geocoder(Main.this, Locale.getDefault());
addresses = geocoder.getFromLocation(latitude, longitude, 1);
String address = addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(0);
LogCat says:
07-06 11:29:41.911: W/System.err(1670): java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException: Invalid index 0, size is 0
I wonder what am I doing wrong?
GPSTracker GPS = new GPSTracker(Main.this);
double latitude = GPS.getLatitude();
double longitude = GPS.getLongitude();
Geocoder geocoder;
List<Address> addresses;
geocoder = new Geocoder(Main.this, Locale.getDefault());
addresses = geocoder.getFromLocation(latitude, longitude, 1);
if(addresses!=null && addresses.size()!=0){
String address = addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(0);
}
//if(addresses!=null && addresses.size()!=0)...check this portion..your address cannot be null and and the the size of array should not be zero...
