I am using Google's FusedLocationProvider API to receive location updates
on user's device. I am switching between PRIORITY_HIGH_ACCURACY and
PRIORITY_BALANCED_POWER_ACCURACY when device GPS is on/off.
//location manager for GPS events
locationManager = (LocationManager) getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
//request to FusedLocationProvider API
if(locationManager.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER))
sendLocationRequest(createLocationRequest(LocationRequest.PRIORITY_HIGH_ACCURACY,
interval2, fastestInterval2));
else if(locationManager.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER))
sendLocationRequest(createLocationRequest(LocationRequest.PRIORITY_BALANCED_POWER_ACCURACY,
interval, fastestInterval));
The problem is when I register to receive location updates on 3G network
and Wifi & GPS turned off, then priority being set to
PRIORITY_BALANCED_POWER_ACCURACY, the FusedLocationProvider asks for
RESOLUTION_REQUIRED, and it is to enable Wifi. I want to receive location
updates on 3G network also without wifi or GPS, i.e to 100 meters block
level accuracy as stated in the API documentation.
I am using these intervals:
private long /*BALANCED_POWER_ACCURACY*/interval=3600000,
fastestInterval=300000, /*HIGH_ACCURACY*/interval2=10000, fastestInterval2=5000;
These are the corresponding methods:
//creating location newRequestprivate LocationRequest createLocationRequest(int
priority, long interval, long fastestInterval){
LocationRequest locationRequest = new LocationRequest();
locationRequest.setInterval(interval);
locationRequest.setFastestInterval(fastestInterval);
locationRequest.setPriority(priority);
return locationRequest;}
//sending location newRequest with needed quality of serviceprivate void
sendLocationRequest(final LocationRequest locationRequest){
LocationSettingsRequest.Builder builder = new
LocationSettingsRequest.Builder().addLocationRequest(locationRequest);
PendingResult<LocationSettingsResult> result =
LocationServices.SettingsApi.checkLocationSettings(googleApiClient,
builder.build());
result.setResultCallback(new ResultCallback<LocationSettingsResult>() {
@Override
public void onResult(@NonNull LocationSettingsResult
locationSettingsResult) {
Status status = locationSettingsResult.getStatus();
switch (status.getStatusCode()) {
case LocationSettingsStatusCodes.SUCCESS: {
//requesting location updatesPendingResult<Status>
statusPendingResult =
LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.requestLocationUpdates(googleApiClient,
locationRequest, CurrLocationService.this);
break;
}
case LocationSettingsStatusCodes.RESOLUTION_REQUIRED:
{
Toast.makeText(CurrLocationService.this,
getString(R.string.app_name)+" Error: Try using
GPS/Wifi" + status.getStatusMessage() + " " + status.getStatus(),
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
stopSelf();
break;
}
case LocationSettingsStatusCodes.SETTINGS_CHANGE_UNAVAILABLE:
{
Toast.makeText(CurrLocationService.this,
getString(R.string.app_name)+" Error: Unable to get
your location updates", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
stopSelf();
break;
}
}
}
});}
