using ILocationManager in Android - android

I tried decompiling an app posted on the playstore and the app has this code:
import android.location.ILocationManager
I cant replicate this on my app I get the error cannot resolve symbol. The app i'm looking at can be installed as a system app for some functions to work. Maybe this has something to do with it being a system app?
How can I get the ILocationManager class?

Late reply, but ILocationManager isn't actually a class, it's an interface. Therefore you can't instantiate it. The interface definition isn't in the android sources, but Google Sources has a version of it: ILocationManager.aidl
You can read about Android Interface Definition Language (AIDL) here.
Classes using the ILocationManager are among others Geocoder and LocationManager - have a look at them. It is used for communicating with a service on the Internet; in the case of Geocoder, to communicate with the google geocoder service.

Not able to create wcf service object/client for reference in xamarin android

i want to access a wcf service so i added it as a web reference in my xamarin android project but whenever i try to create its client it does not recognize it.
i am attaching screenshots in a step by step order
This is the working wcf service
I added it as a web refrence
whenever i try to create its object it shows an error
When i right click on the web reference and select view in object browser it shows nothing
I tried rebuilding my solution, disabling windows firewall..
The service is hosted on other computer. Shall i host this service on my system and then try again? or is there any other fix? i am in desperate help!!
Ap per you original question "whenever I try to create its client it does not recognize it", In third screenshot I have found that assembly reference is missing to WebReference1. Try adding reference to your namespace assembly
using UIDummy.WebReference1;
Now create its client and see whether it recognizes or not.

The added web reference functions as namespace, you need to access the specific class under this namespace, for example,If I have a HelloWorld class under this wcf service like:
public class HelloWorldService : IHelloWorldService
{
public string SayHelloTo(string name)
{
return "Hello World to you, {name}";
}
}
You can use it using below codes after you add it as web reference:
WebReference1.HelloWorldService service=new WebReference1.HelloWorldService();
service.SayHelloTo("name");

Unexpected grpc failed using geocoder

Following the line of code throwing: grpc failed error yesterday.but today it's working fine.
List<Address> addresses=geocoder.getFromLocation(location.getLatitude(),location.getLongitude(),1);
can somebody please explain?
It looks like native Geocoder of Android API periodically experiences this issue. It was reported to Google some time ago, but looks like the issue wasn't solved definitely:
https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/64418751
Feel free to star this bug to add your vote.
As an alternative you can consider switching to Geocoding API web service that seems to be more reliable. You can use the Java client library for Google Maps API Web Services to implement web service calls from your Android app:
https://github.com/googlemaps/google-maps-services-java
This library has reverse geocoding function similar to getFromLocation. Check the javadoc for more details:
https://googlemaps.github.io/google-maps-services-java/v0.2.5/javadoc/
I hope this helps!

How to integrate mirrorlink common api in android Application

friends I am new in mirrorlink common Api.I don't know to enable mirror link service in android application.Please anyone tell me steps and any tutorial link.
I already do following things :-
I get developer account from mirrorlink.com.
I attached certificate with my app(that get from software that available from https://causeway.carconnectivity.org) Documents.
I saved device EMI number in my ACMS account (https://acms.carconnectivity.org)
Now I know I missing mirror link code for launching and terminate all this code and permission in manifest file.
Actually, I don't know how to code in the application for mirrorlink. please help me for step no.4
The launch and terminate UPnP code should be placed in the MainActivity. For certification purposes, your app needs to handle the Terminate intent without coming to the foreground (if it is in the background). Even if you don't respond to the intents, the app should be usable in MirrorLink.
You don't need to do anything extra to enable framebuffer streaming, or audio streaming. (Though providing context information via IContextManager.setFramebufferContextInformation and IContextManager.setAudioContextInformation is needed to make sure that the head unit knows what is being provided to it.)

Samsung ChatOn API throws RESULT_CODE_FAIL_EXCEPTION

I am trying to integrate Samsung SDK in my android project. All I need to do is to send a text message with url to the ChatOn app using the Client ChatON API. On executing this call:
int nResult = MessageAPI.sendTextMessageWithURL (getApplicationContext(), "Hello",
"http://www.chaton.com");
It returns 3 (RESULT_CODE_FAIL_EXCEPTION) with this error message: "Exception!!\nPlease, check argument"
I couldn't find any relevant documentation also on what kind of exceptions can be thrown and reasons behind them. Does anyone know more about what is the problem because of which this error code (3) is returned?
You need to install the official application of Samsung ChatON. Utility api having a method to know, Is ChatON is install or not.
The Utility API Class provides typical tools that are useful for application development by using Client APIs.
UtilityAPI.isChatONInstalled(Context context)
Utility api also provide the method by which you can get the download link of ChatON application.
UtilityAPI.openChatONDownloadPage(Context context)

Tracking locations of Android applications with geolocation-API

Is it possible to use http://www.w3.org/TR/geolocation-API/ to track location of Android
application without using android.location.Location, android.location.LocationListener,
import android.location.LocationManager classes. I hope by using geolocation API can provide
same API for all mobile platforms to get the GPS. Appreciate if you can provide an example for
geolocation-API.
How can I get my android mobile location using geolocation-API.?
There is other thread on this topic , which does identify that this API should work just fine, provided that you are defining the permissions in manifest file.
Also as the API is used in web-environment, you would need to then have the code executed in one, for example by using the webview as was with the other question.
