The so-called network provider uses either WiFi hotspot proximity or cell tower triangulation. The latter is definitely not possible if you lack the chips to talk to cell towers. The former assumes that there is a back-end service provider with location data for hotspots, such as Google or Skyhook Wireless. Perhaps your device manufacturer does not have deals with such a service provider. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ Version 3.8 Available! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
