I am developing using Eclipse targeting a Samsung Moment M900.8.0
running 2.1-update1. The value I get when I do a location.getTime is
WAY off what it should be when compared to the System time. The Lat
and Lon are reasonable, the time is crazy! I have read and re-read
the documentation. It is supposed to return a long UTC time.
Location location =
locationManager.getLastKnownLocation("gps");
String lat = String.valueOf((long)
location.getLatitude());
String lon = String.valueOf((long)
location.getLongitude());
String tim = String.format("%d", location.getTime());
String tim2 = String.valueOf((long)
location.getTime());
System Time (tim2) = 1279766311579
GPS time (tim) = 316928601523679
It doesn't matter whether I use the format or the String.valueOf. I've
scoured the internet looking to see if anyone else has had this kind
of problem and have come up empty. I could use the System Time but I
really want to know when the last fix actually occurred so I know if
it is stale. I suppose it could be a hardware problem. Am I missing
something? Does anyone have any suggestions? Is anyone else having
this issue?
