[Solved] Fused Location always returns null

by


Add this code to your onConnected, thats where it would get Last Known Location.

private static Location mLastLocation;
private static GoogleApiClient mGoogleApiClient;
private static Context context;

// added
private LocationRequest mLocationRequest; 
private Double latitude;
private Double longitude;
private String TAG = ""; // set your TAG

@Override
public void onConnected(Bundle bundle) {

    if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(context, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED && ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(context, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
        return;
    }
    startLocationUpdates();
    mLastLocation = LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.getLastLocation(mGoogleApiClient);
    if(mLastLocation == null){
        startLocationUpdates();
    }

    if (mLastLocation != null) {
        latitude = mLocation.getLatitude();
        longitude = mLocation.getLongitude();

        // set your tag
        Log.d(TAG, String.valueOf(latitude));
        Log.d(TAG, String.valueOf(longitude));

    } else {
        Toast.makeText(context, "Location not Detected, Did you turn off your location?", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }
}

protected void startLocationUpdates() {
    // Create the location request
    mLocationRequest = LocationRequest.create()
            .setPriority(LocationRequest.PRIORITY_HIGH_ACCURACY)
            .setInterval(30 * 1000)
            .setFastestInterval(5 * 1000);

    // Request location updates
    if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(context, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED && ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(context, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
        return;
    }
    LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.requestLocationUpdates(mGoogleApiClient, mLocationRequest, this);
}

And remove synchronized from your method, Just make it public. Something like this below:

public void buildGoogleApiClient() { }
