Yes, I get frequent updates. My test program implements the
interfaces GpsStatus.Listener and LocationListener on my Activity
class.
In onCreate
locationManager = (LocationManager) getSystemService
(LOCATION_SERVICE);
In onResume() I do
locationManager.addGpsStatusListener(this);
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates
(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 1000, 0.0f, this);
and in onPause() I do
locationManager.removeGpsStatusListener(this);
locationManager.removeUpdates(this);
My onGpsStatusChanged method in my Activity class contains:
gpsStatus = locationManager.getGpsStatus(gpsStatus);
My onLocationChanged method in my Activity class contains:
myLocation = location;
I then do "stuff" with the results.
You probably don't need the GpsStatus information, I am using it to
plot the position of the satellites and show their signal strengths
graphically in a custom view.
