If I determine the phone is active by reading the accelerometer, I want to update the location of the phone every 30 seconds. If after a while, I determine it's not moving, I stop the location updates.
Is it better to leave a LocationListener on during that time, or is it better to register a LocationListener every 30 seconds, get an update, and unregister? For both methods, I would timeout after a while if I can't get a location update. I want to know which method is better in terms of both getting consistent updates and battery life. And I'm trying to get updates through GPS satellites, not network, even though I know network is faster and less battery consuming, but I need to get it through satellites. Please keep that in mind. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
