Android Geofence not triggers once location OFF and ON again [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
How to check if Location Services are enabled?
(23 answers)
Closed 7 years ago.
I am using Android Geofencing API.After add geofence it works fine when location is ON.But If I OFF location and ON again,afterwards Geofencing not triggers when enter or exit.I have tested on my Moto G with Android 5.0.2 device. Is it Geofence will expire If location is off?
I have seen on Android document as,
In case network location provider is disabled by the user, the
geofence service will stop updating, all registered geofences will be
removed and an intent is generated by the provided pending intent. In
this case, the GeofencingEvent created from this intent represents an
error event, where hasError() returns true and getErrorCode() returns
GEOFENCE_NOT_AVAILABLE.

Yeap, geofences will be removed once location is switched off.
You should listen for location provider broadcasts using a BroadcastReceiver in your manifest, something like:
<receiver android:name="your.Receiver">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.location.PROVIDERS_CHANGED"/>
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
and then register your geofences again.
public class LocationProviderReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
public LocationProviderReceiver() {
}
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
if (action.equals(LocationManager.PROVIDERS_CHANGED_ACTION)) {
// if location services enabled
// restart geofences
}
}
}

Add this to the manifest:
<receiver android:name="com.aol.android.geofence.GeofenceReceiver"
android:exported="false">
<intent-filter >
<action android:name="com.aol.android.geofence.ACTION_RECEIVE_GEOFENCE"/>
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
Then in the GeofenceRequester class you need to change the createRequestPendingIntent method so that it goes to your BroadcastReceiver instead of the ReceiveTransitionsIntentService
private PendingIntent createRequestPendingIntent() {
// If the PendingIntent already exists
if (null != mGeofencePendingIntent) {
// Return the existing intent
return mGeofencePendingIntent;
// If no PendingIntent exists
} else {
// Create an Intent pointing to the IntentService
Intent intent = new Intent("com.aol.android.geofence.ACTION_RECEIVE_GEOFENCE");
// Intent intent = new Intent(context, ReceiveTransitionsIntentService.class);
/*
* Return a PendingIntent to start the IntentService.
* Always create a PendingIntent sent to Location Services
* with FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT, so that sending the PendingIntent
* again updates the original. Otherwise, Location Services
* can't match the PendingIntent to requests made with it.
*/
return PendingIntent.getBroadcast(
context,
0,
intent,
PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
}
}
Then I added the GeofenceReceiver class that looks something like this:
public class GeofenceReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
Context context;
Intent broadcastIntent = new Intent();
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
this.context = context;
broadcastIntent.addCategory(GeofenceUtils.CATEGORY_LOCATION_SERVICES);
if (LocationClient.hasError(intent)) {
handleError(intent);
} else {
handleEnterExit(intent);
}
}
private void handleError(Intent intent){
// Get the error code
int errorCode = LocationClient.getErrorCode(intent);
// Get the error message
String errorMessage = LocationServiceErrorMessages.getErrorString(
context, errorCode);
// Log the error
Log.e(GeofenceUtils.APPTAG,
context.getString(R.string.geofence_transition_error_detail,
errorMessage));
// Set the action and error message for the broadcast intent
broadcastIntent
.setAction(GeofenceUtils.ACTION_GEOFENCE_ERROR)
.putExtra(GeofenceUtils.EXTRA_GEOFENCE_STATUS, errorMessage);
// Broadcast the error *locally* to other components in this app
LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(context).sendBroadcast(
broadcastIntent);
}
private void handleEnterExit(Intent intent) {
// Get the type of transition (entry or exit)
int transition = LocationClient.getGeofenceTransition(intent);
// Test that a valid transition was reported
if ((transition == Geofence.GEOFENCE_TRANSITION_ENTER)
|| (transition == Geofence.GEOFENCE_TRANSITION_EXIT)) {
// Post a notification
List<Geofence> geofences = LocationClient
.getTriggeringGeofences(intent);
String[] geofenceIds = new String[geofences.size()];
String ids = TextUtils.join(GeofenceUtils.GEOFENCE_ID_DELIMITER,
geofenceIds);
String transitionType = GeofenceUtils
.getTransitionString(transition);
for (int index = 0; index < geofences.size(); index++) {
Geofence geofence = geofences.get(index);
...do something with the geofence entry or exit. I'm saving them to a local sqlite db
}
// Create an Intent to broadcast to the app
broadcastIntent
.setAction(GeofenceUtils.ACTION_GEOFENCE_TRANSITION)
.addCategory(GeofenceUtils.CATEGORY_LOCATION_SERVICES)
.putExtra(GeofenceUtils.EXTRA_GEOFENCE_ID, geofenceIds)

// An invalid transition was reported
} else {

Log.e(GeofenceUtils.APPTAG,

transition));
}
}

private void sendNotification(String transitionType, String locationName) {

How to stop Service Intent and cancel pending Notification

I have followed tutorial in http://developer.android.com/training/notify-user/index.html
It works well. But what I want is : when I click ping, the old service will we stopped, and then create the service again. So if I clicked id multiple time, It will notify me only once.
Problem: If I set time 10, then I click "Ping" button. Then after 5 second, I click it again. It will notify me twice.
What I want : If I set time 10, then I click "Ping" button. Then after 5 second, I click it it will notify only once, 10 secondds after the last time I click the button.
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
private Intent mServiceIntent;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
// Creates an explicit Intent to start the service that constructs and
// issues the notification.
mServiceIntent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), PingService.class);
}
/*
* Gets the values the user entered and adds them to the intent that will be
* used to launch the IntentService that runs the timer and issues the
* notification.
*/
public void onPingClick(View v) {
stopCurrentService();
int seconds;
// Gets the reminder text the user entered.
EditText msgText = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.edit_reminder);

if (input == null || input.trim().equals("")) {
// If user didn't enter a value, sets to default.

} else {
seconds = Integer.parseInt(input);
}

I have called stopService(), but the old notification shows up again.
What I want is it will notify me once, 10 seconds after the latest click.

You can use handler in order to stop/start your service.
Please look at my code. It's not exactly related to your code but you can get the idea.

You can do checking in Run method of Runnable.

not able to get alert in geofencing

I have run a sample of Geofence and I have assigned two set of Lat , Lng and radius and run the sample. When I tap over register geofence I am getting following things in my log
Location Services is available
Client connected
Add Geofences: Success GeofenceRequestIds=[1, 2]
com.example.android.geofence.ACTION_GEOFENCES_ADDED
but nothing happens after that, I don't know what the issue I am passed the current location by enabling gps but no effect.
I don't know when I am gonna get the notification when a fence is crossed, to test it I have passed the same geo coordinates that are in fencing but still no alerts I am getting.
I have tried even replacing getService() by getBroadcast() inside createRequestPendingIntent function after reading few threads over stackoverflow , but no luck.
I have also tried it with
**Geofence #1 and Geofence #2**
Lat : 23.039568000000003
Lng : 72.56600400000002
Radius :1
and I have also set my current position in genymotion to above co ordinates to make it work but no notification.
Even on a real device my 3G is enable and I am moving with the device but no change so far.

you are set radius too small google-play service not give notification for 1 meter when you are increase radius its give better result for that and try it for geo-fencing.

Hey once check whether access to my location is selected. Ie in setting -> Location access

Android Geofence cannot call IntentService and cannot work inside BroadcastReceiver

I have problem when I'm trying to use geofence with my app. I have succeed to register geofence but I have never get the notification.
First I follow the example that provide in http://developer.android.com/training/location/geofencing.html ,but the code never trigger intent service even I'm walking toward or away from area.
My code for register geofence and calling the intent service as follow :
inside manifest :
<service
android:name="com.example.zukami.apps.blynk.geofence.ReceiveTransitionsIntentService"
android:exported="true" >
</service>
in my MainActivity
private boolean registerGeofence() {
mRequestType = GeofenceUtils.REQUEST_TYPE.ADD;
if (!servicesConnected()) {
return false;
}
SimpleGeofence testGeo = new SimpleGeofence(Flag.GEOFENCE + "_"
+ 1, Double.valueOf("1.317342"),
Double.valueOf("103.841998"), (float) (200),
GEOFENCE_EXPIRATION_IN_HOURS,
Geofence.GEOFENCE_TRANSITION_ENTER);
mPrefs.setGeofence(Flag.GEOFENCE + "_" + 1, testGeo);
mCurrentGeofences.add(testGeo.toGeofence());
SimpleGeofence testGeo2 = new SimpleGeofence(Flag.GEOFENCE + "_"
+ 2, Double.valueOf("1.303961"),
Double.valueOf("103.909356"), (float) (200),
GEOFENCE_EXPIRATION_IN_HOURS,
Geofence.GEOFENCE_TRANSITION_ENTER);
mPrefs.setGeofence(Flag.GEOFENCE + "_" + 2, testGeo2);
mCurrentGeofences.add(testGeo2.toGeofence());
// end deleted this code after testing
try {
mGeofenceRequester.addGeofences(mCurrentGeofences);
Log.e(TAG, "ADDING GEOFENCE ??? YES WE DID IT");
} catch (UnsupportedOperationException e) {
Toast.makeText(this,
R.string.add_geofences_already_requested_error,
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
return true;
}
#Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
// Register the broadcast receiver to receive status updates
LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(this).registerReceiver(mBroadcastReceiver, mIntentFilter);
in my GeofenceRequester
private PendingIntent createRequestPendingIntent() {
Log.e(TAG, "CREATE REQUEST PENDING INTENT");
// If the PendingIntent already exists
if (null != mGeofencePendingIntent) {
Log.e(TAG, "PENDING INTENT NOT NULL");
return mGeofencePendingIntent;
// If no PendingIntent exists
} else {
Log.e(TAG, "PENDING INTENT NULL, LET'S CREATED IT");

Intent intent = new Intent(mActivity,
ReceiveTransitionsIntentService.class);
Log.e(TAG,

}
and in class that subclass from IntentService remain same as an example.
I do search for this problem and found this solutions that describe on this link :
Android Geofence eventually stop getting transition intents ,so I change my code exactly as per suggestion, but still I cannot getting the notification, from my code inside GeofenceReceiver class, the code in this line
LocationClient.getGeofenceTransition(intent);
always return me -1 that means I never enter or leave the area (indicate GEOFENCE NEVER_EXPIRED),so I never get the notification. Please find below my GeofenceReceiver class :
public class GeofenceReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
public static String TAG = GeofenceReceiver.class.getCanonicalName();
Context context;
Intent broadcastIntent = new Intent();
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
this.context = context;
broadcastIntent.addCategory(GeofenceUtils.CATEGORY_LOCATION_SERVICES);
if (LocationClient.hasError(intent)) {
handleError(intent);
} else {
handleEnterExit(intent);
}
}
private void handleError(Intent intent) {
int errorCode = LocationClient.getErrorCode(intent);
String errorMessage = LocationServiceErrorMessages.getErrorString(
context, errorCode);
Log.e(GeofenceUtils.APPTAG, context.getString(
R.string.geofence_transition_error_detail, errorMessage));
broadcastIntent.setAction(GeofenceUtils.ACTION_GEOFENCE_ERROR)
.putExtra(GeofenceUtils.EXTRA_GEOFENCE_STATUS, errorMessage);
LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(context).sendBroadcast(
broadcastIntent);
}
private void handleEnterExit(Intent intent) {
int transition = LocationClient.getGeofenceTransition(intent);
// Test that a valid transition was reported
if ((transition == Geofence.GEOFENCE_TRANSITION_ENTER)
|| (transition == Geofence.GEOFENCE_TRANSITION_EXIT)) {
// Post a notification
List<Geofence> geofences = LocationClient
.getTriggeringGeofences(intent);
String[] geofenceIds = new String[geofences.size()];
String ids = TextUtils.join(GeofenceUtils.GEOFENCE_ID_DELIMITER,
geofenceIds);
String transitionType = getTransitionString(transition);
for (int index = 0; index < geofences.size(); index++) {
Geofence geofence = geofences.get(index);
geofenceIds[index] = geofences.get(index).getRequestId();
}
sendNotification(transitionType, ids);
// Create an Intent to broadcast to the app
broadcastIntent
.setAction(GeofenceUtils.ACTION_GEOFENCE_TRANSITION)
.addCategory(GeofenceUtils.CATEGORY_LOCATION_SERVICES)
.putExtra(GeofenceUtils.EXTRA_GEOFENCE_ID, geofenceIds)
.putExtra(GeofenceUtils.EXTRA_GEOFENCE_TRANSITION_TYPE,
transitionType);
LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(context).sendBroadcast(
broadcastIntent);
// Log the transition type and a message
Log.e(GeofenceUtils.APPTAG, transitionType + ": " + ids);
Log.e(GeofenceUtils.APPTAG, context
.getString(R.string.geofence_transition_notification_text));
Log.e(GeofenceUtils.APPTAG, "transition");
} else {
// Always log as an error
Log.e(TAG, "TRANSITION = " + transition);
}
}
Kindly advise what should I do for fix this code and really appreciate for any kind help.

for me I just changed some lines of code in createPendingIntent method
private PendingIntent createRequestPendingIntent() {
Log.e(TAG, "CREATE REQUEST PENDING INTENT");
// If the PendingIntent already exists
if (null != mGeofencePendingIntent) {
Log.e(TAG, "PENDING INTENT NOT NULL");
return mGeofencePendingIntent;
// If no PendingIntent exists
} else {
Log.e(TAG, "PENDING INTENT NULL, LET'S CREATED IT");
// Create an Intent pointing to the IntentService
Intent intent = new Intent(mActivity,
ReceiveTransitionsIntentService.class);
Log.e(TAG,
return PendingIntent.getService(mActivity, 0, intent,
PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
}
So in place of return PendingIntent.getService(mActivity, 0, intent,
PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
use this piece of cake
return PendingIntent.getBroadcast(mActivity, 0, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
and make sure you have declared your BroadcastReceiver in application manisfest file.Good luck!!!!

Beware: Geofences are indeed being removed when Location Provider Settings change or the device is restarted. Unfortunately the Android documentation doesn't mention this anywhere.
To counter this, you can register for a Boot-Completed Receiver and a Location Provider Changed Receiver:
<!-- Boot Completed Receiver -->
<receiver android:name="com.mydemoapp.geofencing.BootCompleteReceiver">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
<!-- Location Service Provider Changed Receiver -->
<receiver android:name="com.mydemoapp.geofencing.LocationProviderChangedReceiver">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.location.PROVIDERS_CHANGED" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
Inside these two BroadcastReceivers you can implement your logic of re-registering your previously deleted geofences.

In the Manifest you have registered the Service.
<service
android:name="com.example.zukami.apps.blynk.geofence.ReceiveTransitionsIntentService"
android:exported="true" >
</service>
But you have used broadcast receiver so can be an issue there. I am not sure about the broadcast receiver but with ReceiveTransitionIntent it does work as per the documentation.
However now i am stuck because when Location Service is Disabled or When Device is restarted i think Geofences are removed and I am not able to Add the Geofences back in Background.

Android onNewIntent always receives same Intent

I have 2 Notifications: one for incoming messages, one for outgoing messages. On Notification click, it sends the PendingIntent to self. I put in an extra value to determine which of the Notifications was clicked:
private static final int INID = 2;
private static final int OUTID = 1;
private void update(boolean incoming, String title, String message, int number) {
notificationManager = (NotificationManager)getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
Intent intent = new Intent(this, Entry.class);
intent.putExtra((incoming ? "IN" : "OUT"), incoming);
PendingIntent pi = PendingIntent.getActivity(Entry.this, 0, intent, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
Notification noti = new Notification(incoming ? R.drawable.next : R.drawable.prev, incoming ? "Incoming message" : "Outgoing message", System.currentTimeMillis());
noti.flags |= Notification.FLAG_NO_CLEAR;
noti.setLatestEventInfo(this, title, message, pi);
noti.number = number;
notificationManager.notify(incoming ? INID : OUTID, noti);
}
And capture the Intent in the onNewIntent method:
#Override
protected void onNewIntent(Intent intent) {
setIntent(intent);
if (intent.getExtras() != null)
for (String id : new ArrayList<String>(intent.getExtras().keySet())) {
Object v = intent.getExtras().get(id);
System.out.println(id + ": " + v);
}
else
log("onNewIntent has no EXTRAS");
}
plus the manifest line that makes sure that there's only one task (in activity tag):
android:launchMode="singleTop"
I logged that it runs through the onNewIntent method, but always use the same intent (IE if I click either the IN or OUT notification, the intent extra always contains the same bundle(logs: OUT: false)). It's always the Intent that was created last, which I found out because the initialization of both intents happens in another sequence than when they are changed:
private void buttonClick(View v) {
update(true, "IN", "in", 1);
update(false, "OUT", "out", 3);
}
private void setNotificationSettings() {
update(false, "IN", "===out message===", 0);
update(true, "OUT", "===in message===", 0);
}
Why do I always receive the same (last created) Intent?

You are passing same requestcode for all intent that why you reciev last intent everytime, so you have to pass different requestcode in pending intent..
like as below code
Your code:
PendingIntent pi = PendingIntent.getActivity(Entry.this, 0, intent, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
Need to change:
PendingIntent pi = PendingIntent.getActivity(Entry.this, your_request_code, intent, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
