Question

I try to send gps longitude and latitude to the android emulator with eclipse, but the values seem to never be set. Instead the onStatusChanged method of my listener is called. Edit I send those values through the emulator controls in the ddms view in eclipse.

If I send data via telnet I get the correct data shown and the onLocationChanged method of my listener is changed.

Was it helpful?

Solution

There is a bug with location controls of ADT in Eclipse if you're using a locale other than English. To fix it, you have to add "-Duser.language=en" (without the quotation marks) on a separate line to your eclipse.ini file. You can take a look at this issue for details.

OTHER TIPS

Make sure you got your permissions set 

android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION  
android.permission.ACCESS_MOCK_LOCATION

i have same problem but it solved now just because my emulator not using google API mode

adt bundle from developer.android running smoothly
