I need to get the current city, state, street, building info. I don't need to reinvent the wheel so I would be happy to just launch Google Maps (or similar), let the user identify their location then return the text info to my app (ContentChooser?).

I have looked at Geocoder but this seems to require that I know the lat and long.

You dont need to launch any app you just need to get the gps values and convert to string. I wrote a class for that in b4j. It should also work on b4a. Will need to dig for it in my folders later when i get home.
