How to get address location in lollipop and above using latitude and longitude?

I am working with Geocoder to find exact address of a location using latitude and longitude, but it didn't support in lollipop and above
Geocoder geo = new Geocoder(getApplicationContext(), Locale.getDefault());
String mylocation;
if (Geocoder.isPresent()) {
try {
List < Address > addresses = geo.getFromLocation(location.getLatitude(), location.getLongitude(), 1);
if (addresses != null && addresses.size() > 0) {
Address address = addresses.get(0);
String addressText = String.format("%s, %s, %s",
// If there's a street address, add it
address.getMaxAddressLineIndex() > 0 ? address.getAddressLine(0) : "",
// Locality is usually a city
address.getLocality(),
// The country of the address
address.getCountryName());
mylocation = "Lattitude: " + location.getLatitude() + " Longitude: " + location.getLongitude() + "\nAddress: " + addressText;
address1.setText(addressText);
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}

You can use following code for Address:
//Set Address
try {
List < Address > addresses = geocoder.getFromLocation(location.getLatitude(), location.getLongitude(), 1);
if (addresses != null && addresses.size() > 0) {
String address = addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(0) + " " + addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(1);
if (address != null) {
textViewAddress.setText(address);
} else {
textViewAddress.setText("Not Available");
}
String city = addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(2);
if (city != null) {
textViewCity.setText(city);
} else {
textViewCity.setText("Not Available");
}
String state = addresses.get(0).getAdminArea();
if (state != null) {
textViewState.setText(state);
} else {
textViewState.setText("Not Available");
}
String country = addresses.get(0).getCountryName();
if (country != null) {
textViewCountry.setText(country);
} else {
textViewCountry.setText("Not Available");
}
System.out.println("Address >> " + address + " " + " \n" + state + " \n" + country);
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Or
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(); // Only if available else return NULL

How to extract location attributes using Geocoder?

When I try to get default locale it returns "zz_ZZ":
countryCode: "ZZ"
languageCode: "zz"
Code is:
private String getAddressFromLocation(Location location) {
Geocoder geoCoder = new Geocoder(this.getApplicationContext(), Locale.getDefault());
List<Address> matches = null;
try {
matches = geoCoder.getFromLocation(location.getLatitude(), location.getLongitude(), 1);
Address bestMatch = (matches.isEmpty() ? null : matches.get(0) );
if (bestMatch != null){
String fullAddress = bestMatch.getAddressLine(0);
for (int i = 1; i <= bestMatch.getMaxAddressLineIndex(); i++){
fullAddress += ", " + bestMatch.getAddressLine(i);
}
return fullAddress;
}else{
return Constants.EMPTY_STRING;
}
} catch (IOException e) {
ACRA.getErrorReporter().handleSilentException(new MyGeoLocationAddressException(TAG + " ERROR CREATING ADDRESS - " + e.getMessage()));
return Constants.EMPTY_STRING;
}
}
Do I need to setDefaultLocale? What does ZZ_zz mean?
Second problem is:
If I use the "ZZ_zz" default locale, I don't get any address but if I use:
Locale.setDefault(Locale.ENGLISH);
I get the exact address.

ZZ_zz is the identifier for the Accented English locale and is mostly used for finding missing translations in your app.
I don't think there's a best practice on how to handle accented english, but treating it as english would probably be the best option.

You must handle locations in this way, check the scenario when no address is returned
List<Address> addresses = null;
try {
addresses = geocoder.getFromLocation(
location.getLatitude(),
location.getLongitude(),
// In this sample, get just a single address.
1);
} catch (IOException ioException) {
// Catch network or other I/O problems.
errorMessage = getString(R.string.service_not_available);
Log.e(TAG, errorMessage, ioException);
} catch (IllegalArgumentException illegalArgumentException) {
// Catch invalid latitude or longitude values.
errorMessage = getString(R.string.invalid_lat_long_used);
Log.e(TAG, errorMessage + ". " +
"Latitude = " + location.getLatitude() +
", Longitude = " +
location.getLongitude(), illegalArgumentException);
}
// Handle case where no address was found.
if (addresses == null || addresses.size() == 0) {
if (errorMessage.isEmpty()) {
errorMessage = getString(R.string.no_address_found);
Log.e(TAG, errorMessage);
}
deliverResultToReceiver(Constants.FAILURE_RESULT, errorMessage);
} else {
Address address = addresses.get(0);
ArrayList<String> addressFragments = new ArrayList<String>();
// Fetch the address lines using getAddressLine,
// join them, and send them to the thread.
for(int i = 0; i < address.getMaxAddressLineIndex(); i++) {
addressFragments.add(address.getAddressLine(i));
}
Log.i(TAG, getString(R.string.address_found));
deliverResultToReceiver(Constants.SUCCESS_RESULT,
TextUtils.join(System.getProperty("line.separator"),
addressFragments));
}
}

How can i get address from LatLng

I want to get location address from LatLng
I tried some ways but i did not get answer, because it seems this service closed by google, so i getting timeout error when i using following code, is there another solution?
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).getAddressLine(1);
String country = addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(2);

private String getCompleteAddressString(double LATITUDE, double LONGITUDE) {
String strAdd = "";
Geocoder geocoder = new Geocoder(this, Locale.getDefault());
try {
List<Address> addresses = geocoder.getFromLocation(LATITUDE, LONGITUDE, 1);
if (addresses != null) {
Address returnedAddress = addresses.get(0);
StringBuilder strReturnedAddress = new StringBuilder("");
for (int i = 0; i < returnedAddress.getMaxAddressLineIndex(); i++) {
strReturnedAddress.append(returnedAddress.getAddressLine(i)).append("\n");
}
strAdd = strReturnedAddress.toString();
Log.w("My Current loction address", "" + strReturnedAddress.toString());
} else {
Log.w("My Current loction address", "No Address returned!");
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
Log.w("My Current loction address", "Canont get Address!");
}
return strAdd;
}
Try this function, it is working fine.

This is working fine, check code below and keep your geocoder.getFromLocation() method in try block

Try this one
public static String getAddressInString(Context context, LatLng latLng) {
Geocoder geocoder = new Geocoder(context, Locale.getDefault());
try {
List<Address> addresses = geocoder.getFromLocation(latLng.latitude, latLng.longitude, 1);
if (addresses != null && addresses.size() > 0) {
return convertToString(addresses.get(0));
} else {
return "";
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return "";
}
public static String convertToString(Address obj) {
String add = "";
if (obj == null)
return "";
add = obj.getAddressLine(0);
if (obj.getSubAdminArea() != null)
add = add + "\n" + obj.getSubAdminArea();
if (obj.getPostalCode() != null)
add = add + " - " + obj.getPostalCode();
if (obj.getAdminArea() != null)
add = add + "\n" + obj.getAdminArea();
if (obj.getCountryName() != null)
add = add + "\n" + obj.getCountryName();
return add;
}

Can't get the cityname of a particular area in android google map

In my app i have used google map, based on the latitude and longitude successfully i can get the Area,Sate,pincode, country, my code is below
Geocoder gcd = new Geocoder(Map.this, Locale.getDefault());
List<Address> addresses;
try {
addresses = gcd.getFromLocation(draggedlat, draggedlng,
1);
if (addresses.size() > 0) {
Log.d("CityName", "---->"
+ addresses.get(0).getLocality()
+ addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(1)
+ addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(2)
+ addresses.get(0).getFeatureName());
Log.d("Locality", "Locality"
+ addresses.get(0).getSubLocality());
} else {
Toast.makeText(Map.this,
"Try with some other city..",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
Now my problem is have to find the city name of a particular area. is that possible?? kindly help me.
My OutPut Is:
VanapatlaVanapatla, Andhra Pradesh 509235,India,Kollapur Rd
Thanks in advance!

Try this with different points:
List<Address> list = geoCoder.getFromLocation(location
.getLatitude(), location.getLongitude(), 1);
if (list != null & list.size() > 0) {
Address address = list.get(0);
result = address.getLocality();
return result;

How to get the address by latitude and longitude using openstreetmap in android

In my app I am using osm map. I have latitude and longitude.
using this method
proj = mapView.getProjection();
loc = (GeoPoint) proj.fromPixels((int) e.getX(), (int) e.getY());
String longitude = Double
.toString(((double) loc.getLongitudeE6()) / 1000000);
String latitude = Double
.toString(((double) loc.getLatitudeE6()) / 1000000);
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Longitude: "
+ longitude + " Latitude: " + latitude, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
toast.show();
So from here how I will query to get the city name from osm database. Please help me.
How can I convert this into human understandable form. Here is my code which I am using.link

Try this code for getting address.
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).getAddressLine(1);
String country = addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(2);
for openstreammap
final String requestString = "http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/reverse?format=json&lat=" +
Double.toString(lat) + "&lon=" + Double.toString(lon) + "&zoom=18&addressdetails=1";
RequestBuilder builder = new RequestBuilder(RequestBuilder.GET, URL.encode(requestString));
try {
#SuppressWarnings("unused")
Request request = builder.sendRequest(null, new RequestCallback() {
#Override
public void onResponseReceived(Request request, Response response) {
if (response.getStatusCode() == 200) {
String city = "";
try {
JSONValue json = JSONParser.parseStrict(response);
JSONObject address = json.isObject().get("address").isObject();
final String quotes = "^\"|\"$";
if (address.get("city") != null) {
city = address.get("city").toString().replaceAll(quotes, "");
} else if (address.get("village") != null) {
city = address.get("village").toString().replaceAll(quotes, "");
}
} catch (Exception e) {
}
}
}
});
} catch (Exception e) {
}

here is my solution. i think it works for you also.
public String ConvertPointToLocation(GeoPoint point) {
String address = "";
Geocoder geoCoder = new Geocoder( getBaseContext(), Locale.getDefault());
try {
List<Address> addresses = geoCoder.getFromLocation(
point.getLatitudeE6() / 1E6,
point.getLongitudeE6() / 1E6, 1);
if (addresses.size() > 0) {
for (int index = 0; index < addresses.get(0).getMaxAddressLineIndex(); index++)
address += addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(index) + " ";
}
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), address, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return address;
}
