Then stop location updates in onStop(). This will get invoked: -- when the user presses HOME -- when the user pressed BACK (en route to onDestroy()) -- when the user takes a phone call -- when the user responds to a notification that brings up an activity -- etc. The one thing you may want to do is handle configuration changes yourself, so you won't be called with onStop() when the user rotates the screen. > I need to do this just in case any user while in that activity clicks > on home button and changes the location settings. I'm not sure what "the location settings" are. If you mean they disable GPS, your LocationListener should be notified of that. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android Training in US: 26-30 April 2010: http://onlc.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
