[netsistemas]

My app check if are allowed location.

one part of code are:

Sub CheckLocationSettingStatus As ResumableSub
    Dim f As LocationSettingsRequestBuilder
    f.Initialize
    f.AddLocationRequest(CreateLocationRequest)
    flp.CheckLocationSettings(f.Build)
    Wait For flp_LocationSettingsChecked(LocationSettingsResult1 As LocationSettingsResult)
    Return LocationSettingsResult1
End Sub

but the cope stop in wait for (no return)

are any consideration special for android 12.
all permision (finelocation included) are allowed in device

Where are you initialising flp?

I have the same code in a class with android:targetSdkVersion="31" and it works fine.

However, I haven't tried it on an Android 12 phone though...

This other code:

    Dim p As Phone
    Dim T As String
        t = p.GetSettings ("location_providers_allowed")

return blank.. This is comment in

You can let apps use your device's location to take action for you or give you information. For example, apps can use your device's location to display commute traffic or find nearby restaurants. Imp

as you can read there

LOCATION_PROVIDERS_ALLOWED This constant was deprecated in API level 19. This setting no longer exists from Android S onwards as it no longer is capable of realistically reflecting location settings. Use LocationManager.isProviderEnabled(java.lang.String) or LocationManager#isLocationEnabled() instead.

You shouldn´t use this any longer. Instead we have to use LocationManager.isProviderEnabled(java.lang.String) or LocationManager#isLocationEnabled()
