Android Question GPS Solution

[edgar_ortiz]

Hi,

I'm looking for the best GPS solution... I figure a service runing every 'n' minutes...

I know that GPS library form android is NOT the best solution.

Any example is helpfully.

Please any comments are welcome.

Regards,

Edgar

It is the best solution if you are only interested in GPS position. Otherwise use FusedLocationProvider.

Erel,

I know the knowledge you have (and I appreciate the contributions you make) ... but I CAN NOT believe that GPS library is the best solution.

When GPS library does not work indoors, when the response time is VERY slow, etc.

I take the opportunity to ask: Can you think of a "mixed" solution? (GPS library and FusedLocationProvide).

Regards,

Edgar

This is is not related to the GPS library. It is related to the fact that the GPS hardware doesn't receive the satellites signals.

The best way to find the current location is with FusedLocationProvider.
If you are only interested in GPS position then you should use GPS library.
