googleMap.getMyLocation(); cannot get current location

android, eclipse, google-maps-api-2

Solution

Try this...I hope this will be help to you

LocationManager locationManager = (LocationManager)
        getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
Criteria criteria = new Criteria();

Location location = locationManager.getLastKnownLocation(locationManager
        .getBestProvider(criteria, false));
double latitude = location.getLatitude();
double longitude = location.getLongitude();

Problem

i want to make a program to calculate the distance between some places to my current location, but my googleMap.getMyLocation(); doesnt work properly. ``` googleMap = ((MapFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map)).getMap(); googleMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true); googleMap.getUiSettings().setCompassEnabled(false); mylocation = googleMap.getMyLocation(); direction = new GMapV2Direction(); LatLng from, to; from = new LatLng(-7.26071409, 112.80674726); for(int i=0; i<lat.length; i++){ to = new LatLng(lat[i], lon[i]); doc = direksi.getDocument(from, to, GMapV2Direction.MODE_DRIVING); distance[i] = (double)direction.getDistanceValue(doc) / 1000; } ``` i saved the latitude and longitude of some places in lat[] and lon[]. LatLng 'from' is mylocation and 'to' is my destination places. the problem appear when i change ``` from = new LatLng(-7.26071409, 112.80674726); to from = new LatLng(mylocation.getLatitude(), mylocation.getLongitude()); ``` i want to do the calculation without opening the googlemaps. the google maps will appear when i touch the map button as pop up window. so the calculation will happen without opening googlemap please help me
