Android :: Get Street Name From Address / Location Object In Droid?
Nov 23, 2010
I'm trying to get the street name of my current location but I can't seem to get it.
I use this method to retrieve the Address. code...
And then I can do things like. address.getLocality() and address.getPostalCode()
But what I want is the street name. Like in "Potterstreet 12". When I print the AddressLine(0) and AddressLine(1) I only get the postalcode, city and country.
How can I retrieve the street name of the position I'm currently at?

Is there a way to find out the final location of my animated "object" after the animation? Let's say I am animating an ImageView with location in parent as (0,0 - 20,20) using TranslateAnimation and ScaleAnimation over 1 second with setFillAfter(true).
How to I find the final location of this "object" (since the View location itself does not move)? I need to continue the animation from this point based on an user input.

I have an activity that implements LocationListener in my application and my onLocationChanged method has been working perfectly up until recently. For some reason the Location object being passed into the method is null. My question is, why is it null? Does it pass in a null object if it cannot acquire a location?
My GPS is on and I have it set to pull a location from the GPS, and I know my GPS can get a fix on me as I used Maps and had it locate me.
Also, I have the permission for my app set as:
CODE:.................
I don't believe permissions is the issue though, as my activity was working beforehand and I have not altered the permissions since then.
Here is the code that determines the provider of the location object:
CODE:.............
Here is the LogCat output of the error:
CODE:..............
I have tested the same code on another device (an HTC MyTouch 3G to be precise) and it works flawlessly with the GPS, however on my Motorola Droid it crashes.

I've done a lot of searching and I don't think this app exists yet and I was wondering what everyone else thought as to whether it was a good idea or not. Basically it would be a "My Locations" app where you could save the address of places you have searched or have been to before so when you wanted to get directions to there from your current GPS location you could do it without having to search for it again. Also, similar to Shazaam, when you were somewhere you could just "save as current location". It would be structured similar to your contacts so you could have a picture and have categories like restaurants, bars, etc. Let me know what you guys think.

I am writing an app that requires to get the current map location. My Map file works fine by it self, but I need to get the address (see addressString below at the buttom) from another Activity. I tried getAddress/setAddress (setters/getters). They do not work. They always return 'no address' (the default).

I would like to save a street view image of a local sandwich shop so that I can use it for the contact photo. Is there an easy way to do this or do I have to go through that longwinded process of taking a screenshot?

i've had my phone about 3 weeks now. up until last week, the htc weather widget would update to my current location. when i was home, it would show the town i live in. i also had the google internet option to use my location and this would also work perfectly until last sunday.now, the weather location was stuck on miami no matter where i went (as far north as west palm beach) and the internet shows up 'location unavailable'. i have found out that the gps is picking up where i am in goggle maps but it seems that the cell towers are not as far as weather and internet location are concerned. i have tried all of the obvious settings.i did a factory reset and now my weather says ft lauderdale which is closer to me but still not my town. it does not update (manually either) as i move. the internet location still says location unavailable although for a fleeting minute after the factory reset, it DID locate me....then it was gone so i called verizon, they didn't have a clue. then i took it to the store and it turns out EVERY phone the tech tried in the store had the same problem, including his. he told me it was a google problem and there was nothing he could do about it. i felt if i tried explaining how that would make it a verizon problem as well, it would be a losing battle

I like to add addresses to my phone book in Android. As a lot of my contacts live in buildings i also like to add the floor and apartment number to the address: Looking like that:
Street and Number, Floor and Department number
Town, zip code
State
Country
Example;
Av. Whatever 12345, Floor 5-A
Buenos Aires 1007
Argentina
When clicking on the address the GPS of my wish opens , finds the country, city but not the street because of the additional Floor and department information. Without this additional information everything well with Google Maps or Sygic.
So, how should i add this additional Floor and department information to my address without the GPS has problems to find the main location.Also from ICS on there is only one filed to add the whole address not as with Gingerbread where you had a field for street, city, etc.

I am trying to get a FileInputStream object on an image that the user selects from the picture gallery.
This is the android URI returned by android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.INTERNAL_CONTENT_URI content://media/external/images/media/3
When I try to construct a java URI object from this object, I get an IllegalArgumentException with the exception description Expected file scheme in URI: content://media/external/images/media/3 whereas the android URI shows the scheme as content
Never found a solution for the original question. But if you want the byte stream of an image in the pictures gallery, this piece of code will do that.
CODE:...................

My version of Maps already has Street View, so does the add-on act any differently than what I can already do?

In my work, I've to store some addresses and display them on the map. Some addresses we get are street intersections. GeoCoder does not give any addresses for street intersections. For example, the following does not work. addresses = geoCoder.getFromLocationName( "Broadway and 42nd, New York, NY", 1); Are there any alternative to use geoCoder for such lookups? Am I doing anything wrong?

I discovered an option in street view that is called "Compass View". Not sure what use it is but I thought it was cool. You have to hold the phone in portrait as opposed to landscape for the compass to work...check it out.

Just getting used to my HTC Desire, after reading your forum I was comforted regarding battery life and it seems much better now than the first few days.
I see another post on this but no answer, the address book only gives one line of the address is then any way round this? Even my first pda a Psion 3 had the option of which fields to display etc. there seems very little option to format what is seen, not that I am unhappy about the rest but to have to edit to see all the address is barmy.
Another thing way back then that still is not found is search all fields of the contacts, i.e. to find a number of someone that rang on another phone.

When I'm at work, street view can be fun for filler time. Or if I'm looking to go on vacation it's handy to see what's around the area.
But really tho what are you guys using street view for on your phone other than to show you friends who own Iphones how cool it it? Are there functions that I'm missing?
To me it almost seems useless for a handheld device. Even if it moved real time as your walking all it will show you is what you would see right now ... only 6 month to a year ago.
So my question .... is anyone using street view for anything useful .... or am I missing something.

It's not in the Layer menu. If I hold finger down on a location it doesn't come up in a menu from that either So how to I get it back?

Is there any possibility to highlight a street using the Google Maps API? I want to set a color on a street, similar as it is done in the navigation function of Google Maps.
If there is no generic implementation for this - and I guess there probably isn't - is there any good/simple solution for this? The only thing I could think of was reverse geocoding coordinates and see if those coordinates resolve to the street I want to color and if they did I would then draw some color on to those points. But this is a really ugly solution.

Is it possible to pass a JavaScript object from JavaScript to Java using addJavascriptInterface()? Something along these lines: var javaScriptObject = {"field1":"string1", "field2":"string2"}; JavaScriptInterface.passObject(javaScriptObject); How would such a call be captured on the Java side? I have no problem setting up the interface to send a string, but when I send an object, I receive null on the Java end.
