yes.. its getting the locations all right..but i am unable to save the location somwhere so that i can use it later. thats the whole issue....
I just thought of something... if I start a service that does the onLocationChanged stuff....it would get the gps locations and store it (somewhere in the system) and later if i just start an acitivity that would do getLastKnowLocation() , shouldn't that fetch the location for further use.
