Hello, i recently developed a location based service in android, my apps works with GPS signals in conjunction with google maps.
problem is that, it takes lot of time to get the gps signals, when you are in a dense area (sorrunded by buildings) u dont get any signal at all, BUT if we talk about google app "Latitude" , whenever we start it, it catches the GPS signal at a very fast rate no matter if we are in dense area or not. if we use location sources as NETWORK_PROVIDER instead of GPS_PROVIDER then accuracy of location is the issue. how can i get fast GPS signals? or Latitude app works with special premium mapView key , if it is , can a developer get that sort of key which enables the app to get fast GPS signal receiving? please also tell me, what is the minimum and maximum error that can possibly occur in accuracy if we obtain our location by NETWORK_PROVIDER instead of GPS_PROVIDER -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
