Here's an idea: In Android, whenever you have a separate logical component shared between multiple activities, factor its interface out into a Service.
In this case, you would have a Service which controlled the LocationManager (as in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8672736/starting-locationmanager-as-service-android). You can have intents to interface to the Service, or bind to it and do communication that way.. kris On Tue, Jun 5, 2012 at 1:17 PM, Manuel Ángel Garcia Gallego <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello everbody > > I am a newbiew developping applications in Android.
