I want to make an android program in that I get latitude and longitude in Toast after each 1 minute interval and populated on toast even after my application closed.
I have tried as below,But I only getting on time latitude and longitude,Please tell me what should i do for it to get continuously lat long in toast.My code is as below:

Gratia
Replace your TimeDisplayTimerTask with following code:
Initialize gps within run method.
class TimeDisplayTimerTask extends TimerTask
{
#Override
public void run()
{
mHandler.post(new Runnable()
{
#Override
public void run()
{
gps = new GPSTracker(getApplicationContext());
// check if GPS enabled
if(gps.canGetLocation())
{
double latitude = gps.getLatitude();
double longitude = gps.getLongitude();
// \n is for new line
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Your Location is - \nLat: " + latitude + "\nLong: " + longitude + "\n\n"+getDateTime(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
else
{
// can't get location
// GPS or Network is not enabled
// Ask user to enable GPS/network in settings
gps.showSettingsAlert();
}
}
});
}
}
Wait sometime because getting gps-coordinates from gps takes some time.
I am getting a diffrent latitude and longitude when i click the button but all are round about values to the exact location where i am. i saw all these location on google map. i want exact latitude and longitude that point me on google map accuratly where i am.

To getting fine locations you can use a nice library named LittleFluffy
also google recommended strategies for getting most accurate location in : location strategies
I am currently working on a coding project that requires the following:
Map the user's location (GPS) enabled with a button
Hard code a list of GPS points onto a map
Calculate the distance from the user's location to the hard coded GPS points on the map
Currently, I have code concerning the user's location (GPS) with a button:

My biggest concern is figuring out how to hardcode the gps points into the application. I have found similar code in the following post. As for find the distance, I think using the Location.distanceBetween() will be sufficient. Your help is much appreciated.

I use this code in MainActivity to get location
//object in mainactivity
GPSTracker x=new GPSTracker(MainActivity.this);
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Latitude -> "+x.getLocation(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
but it gives me null
here`s my mainactivity
package com.example.b;
import android.location.Location;
import android.location.LocationManager;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
GPSTracker x=new GPSTracker(MainActivity.this);
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Latitude : " + x.getLocation(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
return true;
}
}
Try this, the listener passes the location object to onLocationChanged() callback, Change your onLocationChanged() callback to this and see if you get the Toast or not:
#Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
this.location=location;
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Latitude : " + location.getLatitude(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
I tested your code on my Galaxy S3. It worked.

i am developing a location base application. which determines the latitude and longitude.
now i want to compare it with same values and if matched i want to call event.
i try it in many ways but unable to do it. kindly give an idea and code plz.

Use the onLocationChanged()-method that is already in your code. If the user moves, you can do your coordinate-comparison and then fire your event.
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/location/LocationListener.html
Update: This is the code that you could use to detect whether you reached a certain destination:
Make two variables for latitute and longitude in your class. So for example:
double lat=10.0;
double lon=5.0;
Then modify the onLocationChanged()-Method to something like this:
#Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
double currentLat=location.getLatitude();
double currentLon=location.getLongitude();
//you will need to create or reuse a distance-function... this should be easily findable...
if (distance(lat,lon,currentLat,currentLon)<2.0){
//do what you want to do...
}
}
So for every location change that the phone detects, it will compare the distance to the last distance and fire the event...
