Hi Chris, A mock location provider does not get included in a .apk file. For the challenge applications, it recommended to use the default mock gps provider which is in the sdk at /data/misc/location/gps/.
If you are using your own location providers, you will have to include step by step instructions for the judges to make a directory in the adb shell,etc in your documentation. Do this only if your application absolutely requires a new location provider. Include your location providers kml files separately in the submission and layout the steps that the judges should follow to create your location provider. http://code.google.com/android/toolbox/apis/lbs.html Thanks, Megha On Sat, Mar 29, 2008 at 9:44 AM, Chris D <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Megha, > > Will that new mock provider reside in your apk?
