I used this code to show my location on map but map is not visible in app. App is running fine. I don't know what i am doing wrong. please help me.Thanks in advance.
public class MapsActivity extends FragmentActivity implements LocationListener,OnMapReadyCallback{
GoogleMap mMap;
LatLng myPosition;
Location location;
LocationManager locationManager;
double latitude = 0, longitude = 0;

mMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(new LatLng(latitude, longitude), 16));
Timer t = new Timer(false); //To show text for required time

});
}
}, 10000);
}
}
And also mMap.getMyType gives '1' value means normal map. But map is not visible. Further I pass latitude and longitude value to another activity. In that activity it will print address of latitude and longitude provided. This part is working fine,it means app is correctly locating my location but map is not visible.

Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you
Save the marker object after adding to maps.
myMarker = mMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().position(currentLocation).title("Current Location Marker"));
After getting new location in location updates callback update marker's position.
.....
myMarker.setPosition(newLatLng);

You should use Google Play services location APIs
Setup your Google play services: https://developers.google.com/android/guides/setup
Add to your manifest
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.google.android.gms.location.sample.basiclocationsample" >
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"/>
</manifest>
Declare the location client
private FusedLocationProviderClient mFusedLocationClient;
// ..
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// ...
mFusedLocationClient = LocationServices.getFusedLocationProviderClient(this);
}
Getting user last location
mFusedLocationClient.getLastLocation()
.addOnSuccessListener(this, new OnSuccessListener<Location>() {
#Override
public void onSuccess(Location location) {
// Got last known location. In some rare situations this can be null.
if (location != null) {
// ...
}
}
});

I am a beginner Android developer. I'm using Android Studio to build an app that gives you the exact location and keep updating it every time period. I used GPS and network provider by creating a GPStracker class that gives me the latitude and longitude. And then display these coordonites on map fragment.
The problem is that I keep getting the same location again and again witch correspond to longitude and latitude equal to zero. I know that there many questions about Android location but I can't find help there.
This is where I update my map
private void updateMap() {
mMap.clear();
double latitude = gps.getLatitude();
double longitude = gps.getLongitude();
// Create a LatLng object for the current location
LatLng latLng = new LatLng(latitude, longitude);
// Show the current location in Google Map
mMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(latLng));
// Zoom in the Google Map
mMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.zoomTo(1));
mMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().position(new LatLng(latitude, longitude)).title("You are here!").snippet("Estimated location!"));
//camera settings
CameraUpdate yourLocation = CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(latLng, 1);
mMap.animateCamera(yourLocation);
CameraPosition cameraPosition = new CameraPosition.Builder()
.target(latLng) // Sets the center of the map to LatLng (refer to previous snippet)
.zoom(1) // Sets the zoom
.bearing(90) // Sets the orientation of the camera to east
.tilt(30) // Sets the tilt of the camera to 30 degrees
.build(); // Creates a CameraPosition from the builder
mMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newCameraPosition(cameraPosition));
}
And this is my GPStracker class
public abstract class GPSTracker extends Service implements LocationListener {
private final Context mContext;
// flag for GPS status
boolean isGPSEnabled = false;
// flag for network status

Try to use Android emulator or genymotion emulator. They have a an excellent feature to inject locations to the emulator.
This link helps you to enable genymotion's GPS

What i did wrong?
First of all you need to run your app in a real device rather then virtual device and by keeping GPS on from settings. Then you can use the following methods that did the work for me.
private void createMap()
{
TotalDistance.setText("Distance:");
SupportMapFragment supportMapFragment=(SupportMapFragment)getChildFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map);
//SupportMapFragment fm = (SupportMapFragment) getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map);
googleMap=supportMapFragment.getMap();
/* googleMap = ((SupportMapFragment) MainActivity.fragmentManager
.findFragmentById(R.id.map)).getMap();*/
locationManager = (LocationManager) getActivity().getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
// Creating a criteria object to retrieve provider
Criteria criteria = new Criteria();
// Getting the name of the best provider
provider = locationManager.getBestProvider(criteria, true);
// Getting Current Location
if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(getActivity(), android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED && ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(getContext(), android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {

googleMap.addMarker(marker);

public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
// Getting latitude of the current location
double latitude = location.getLatitude();
double longitude = location.getLongitude();
finalLatlang=new LatLng(latitude,longitude);
// userlatLang.add(finalLatlang);
CameraPosition cameraPosition = new CameraPosition.Builder().target(finalLatlang).zoom(15).build();
googleMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newCameraPosition(cameraPosition));
Log.d("Latitude", " " + latitude);
Log.d("Longitude", " " + longitude);
// Showing the current location in Google Map
googleMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(finalLatlang));
if(flag==1) {
// Zoom in the Google Map
googleMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.zoomTo(15));
flag++;
}
}
Also pls implements LocationListener into your Activity or Fragment
Criteria crit = new Criteria();
crit.setAccuracy(Criteria.ACCURACY_FINE);
String best = mgr.getBestProvider(crit, false);
the above is to get the best location provider.
You may give your locationManager request in onResume();
#Override public void onResume() {
super.onResume();
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(, 10000, 1, locationListener);}
Hope this may help you.
I am new to android. I am developing an application which displays users current latitude and longitude even without using internet.
It works fine but the latitude and longitude changes everytime i refersh or start the app again... Please help me.. Why is it so?/
This is my GPSTracker class
public class GPSTracker extends Service implements LocationListener {
private final Context mContext;
// flag for GPS status
boolean isGPSEnabled = false;
// flag for network status
boolean isNetworkEnabled = false;
// flag for GPS status
boolean canGetLocation = false;
Location location; // location
double latitude; // latitude
double longitude; // longitude
// The minimum distance to change Updates in meters
private static final long MIN_DISTANCE_CHANGE_FOR_UPDATES = 10; // 10 meters
// The minimum time between updates in milliseconds
private static final long MIN_TIME_BW_UPDATES = 1000 * 60 * 1; // 5 minutes
// Declaring a Location Manager

Have a look at http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/location/strategies.html ... it helped me understand geolocation states in Android recently.
