I believe you have to register for multiple location providers (network, gps).
In my code, I call requestLocationUpdates() on each provider, but they all share the same LocationListener. My LocationListener keeps track of the highest quality fix received so far (via getAccuracy()) and discards fixes that are worse than that. -Timo On Fri, Feb 13, 2009 at 4:06 AM, muckwarrior <muckwarr...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I want my app to be able to retrieve a fine location, but also to be > able to get it's location as quick as possible.
