You need to read the documentation of the Geocoder component very
carefully. It states that it is basically just a stub. The presence of a
real implementation depends on the device. Some devices do not have an
implementation at all and therefore you'll always get null as a result.
If you are coding for API level 9 you can check the presence of an
implementation with the "isPresent" method. If you really need to provide
this location service for any device you'll have to bite the bullet and
code your own fallback solution that queries geolocation web services like
GeoNames.org or similar.
