Have you set the permissions in the androidmanifest file
<uses-permission
android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_LOCATION"></uses-permission>
<uses-permission
android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_GPS"></uses-permission>
<uses-permission
android:name="android.permission.ADD_SYSTEM_SERVICE"></uses-permission>
