copied!<p>Do you have any logic to verify whether a new location is a better one to display? It may be that the old location is always regarded as a better location until hit some condition. Try below snippet : </p> <pre><code>private static final int TWO_MINUTES = 1000 * 60 * 2; /** Determines whether one Location reading is better than the current Location fix * @param location The new Location that you want to evaluate * @param currentBestLocation The current Location fix, to which you want to compare the new one */ protected boolean isBetterLocation(Location location, Location currentBestLocation) { if (currentBestLocation == null) { // A new location is always better than no location return true; } // Check whether the new location fix is newer or older long timeDelta = location.getTime() - currentBestLocation.getTime(); boolean isSignificantlyNewer = timeDelta > TWO_MINUTES; boolean isSignificantlyOlder = timeDelta < -TWO_MINUTES; boolean isNewer = timeDelta > 0; // If it's been more than two minutes since the current location, use the new location // because the user has likely moved if (isSignificantlyNewer) { return true; // If the new location is more than two minutes older, it must be worse } else if (isSignificantlyOlder) { return false; } // Check whether the new location fix is more or less accurate int accuracyDelta = (int) (location.getAccuracy() - currentBestLocation.getAccuracy()); boolean isLessAccurate = accuracyDelta > 0; boolean isMoreAccurate = accuracyDelta < 0; boolean isSignificantlyLessAccurate = accuracyDelta > 200; // Check if the old and new location are from the same provider boolean isFromSameProvider = isSameProvider(location.getProvider(), currentBestLocation.getProvider()); // Determine location quality using a combination of timeliness and accuracy if (isMoreAccurate) { return true; } else if (isNewer && !isLessAccurate) { return true; } else if (isNewer && !isSignificantlyLessAccurate && isFromSameProvider) { return true; } return false; } /** Checks whether two providers are the same */ private boolean isSameProvider(String provider1, String provider2) { if (provider1 == null) { return provider2 == null; } return provider1.equals(provider2); } </code></pre>
