Android Question Does Gps coordinates(lat and lng) take time to load on the screen?

[fricentric]

Q1. Does the gps coordinates(lat and lng) take time to load the screen? 15 mins after running the project i get the gps coordinates. y so?
Q2. if i implement the api call inside the gps project that has to send the current gps coordinates(lat and lng) to the server, i get an error. The error snapshot is attached. The longitude is not displayed on the screen leaving behind the json response which is in the snapshot.

Without seeing your code it's impossible to give a concrete advice.
Where do you test your program?
You should test it outsides, insides you my get no signal.

The code goes here:
Public Sub LocationChanged(Location1 As Location)
lat= Location1.Latitude
lng= Location1.Longitude
lb1.Text=lat
lb1.Text=lng
Dim job1 As HttpJob
job1.Initialize("Job1", Me)
job1.Download("http://abc.com/abc?latitude=lat&longitude=lng&distance=5") //api call to the server
End Sub

Sub JobDone (Job As HttpJob)
Log("JobName = " & Job.JobName & ", Success = " & Job.Success)
If Job.Success = True Then
Select Job.JobName
Case "Job1"
'print the result to the logs
Log(Job.GetString)
End Select
Else
Log("Error: " & Job.ErrorMessage)
ToastMessageShow("Error: " & Job.ErrorMessage, True)
End If
Job.Release
End Sub
Log("Error: " & Job.ErrorMessage)
ToastMessageShow("Error: " & Job.ErrorMessage, True)
End If
Job.Release
End Sub


after executing this i get an error which i attached previously.

Please use code tags when posting code

I suppose that the problem is here:
"http://abc.com/abc?latitude=lat&longitude=lng&distance=5"
Shouldn't it be something like this.
"http://abc.com/abc?latitude=" & lat & "&longitude=" & lng & "&distance=5"
lat and lng are variables.
