I am new in android and recently start learning about Android and I am trying to get location of any android device by its unique android id. By that I can track the approx or exact location either by GPS or network provider. In detail I mean to say that whenever i enter any Android id in my app i can get device location in my application. Thanks for your kind help.
Finally I am able to do with this code:
public class MyService extends Service implements LocationListener{
String GPS_FILTER = "";
Thread triggerService;
LocationListener locationListener;
LocationManager lm;
private static final long MINIMUM_DISTANCE_CHANGE_FOR_UPDATES = 10; // 10 meter
private static final long MINIMUM_TIME_BETWEEN_UPDATES = 1000 * 60 * 3; // 1 minute
protected LocationManager locationManager;
boolean isRunning = true;
Calendar cur_cal = Calendar.getInstance();
Location location;
double latitude; // latitude
double longitude;
UserFunctions userFunction;
private JSONObject json;
private AlertDialogManager alert = new AlertDialogManager();
private static String KEY_SUCCESS = "success";
private static String KEY_ERROR = "error";
private static String KEY_ERROR_MSG = "error_msg";
private static String KEY_FLAG = "flag";
String android_id ;
String userName;
@Override
public void onCreate() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate();
Intent intent = new Intent(this, MyService.class);
PendingIntent pintent = PendingIntent.getService(getApplicationContext(),
0, intent, 0);
AlarmManager alarm = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
android_id = Settings.Secure.getString(getContentResolver(),
Settings.Secure.ANDROID_ID);
if (getAccount() != null) {
userName = getAccount();
}
GPS_FILTER = "MyGPSLocation";
// locationManager = (LocationManager)
// getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
// locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(
// LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER,
// MINIMUM_TIME_BETWEEN_UPDATES,
// MINIMUM_DISTANCE_CHANGE_FOR_UPDATES,
// new MyLocationListener());
cur_cal.setTimeInMillis(System.currentTimeMillis());
alarm.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, cur_cal.getTimeInMillis(),
60 * 1000*3, pintent);
}
@Override
public void onStart(Intent intent, int startId) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onStart(intent, startId);
//turnGPSOn();
/*Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Hello1", Toast.LENGTH_LONG)

locationListener = new MyLocationListener();
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(
LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER,

if (locationManager != null) {
location = locationManager
.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);
if (location != null) {
latitude = location.getLatitude();
longitude = location.getLongitude();

new YourAsyncTaskLogin().execute();
}
}

locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER,
MINIMUM_TIME_BETWEEN_UPDATES, 1.0f, locationListener);
}
