Your question isn't really clear: are you asking, how do I know which to use? You can query to determine which location providers are available. You can also provide a set of Criteria objects, and ask the system to find the provider which matches you best. There are a host of other options, passive providers, etc... Typically people just use a simple requestLocationUpdates() or requestSingleUpdate(), though you can always just do a getLastKnownLocation (or maybe it's just getLastLocation, oh well, you'll find it..).
I suspect you'd like to find which are available on the device, I don't know about vzw, or google, are they just in API, then you should be able to know based on API level? (They sound like custom libraries to me..), but I suspect it shouldn't be too hard to compile. In any case, you'll probably want to abstract this somehow..
