QUESTION
I'm experiencing some strange behavior with our Android app using Fused location Provider Api.
In some devices this api is not returning the altitudes
I can check it on Moto G 2d generation but our users report the same behavior at least on Moto G 3d generation, Nexus 6 and Moto X Play. In the great majority of other devices altitudes are returning well so I'm pretty sure that my implementation of the Api is correct.
The funny part is that I realized that if I use android.location.LocationManager
, for example, like this
ANSWER
Answered 2020-Jan-15 at 13:34Since hasAltitude()
returns false
there are parameters missing to the FusedLocationProvider
that would make it possible to provide a confident altitude. This depends largely on the manufacturers setup and devices capabilities which is one of the reasons the Provider exists.
The reason could also be an insufficient GPS-lock or something else but since you could narrow it down to certain devices I would expect that not to be the issue.
You can try (as you already did) other location data sources and check if their results return an altitude, but keep in mind that that might be less consistent. My first try would be the old Location provider.
But there is no way for you to fix the misbehavior of the FusedLocationProvider
it is a manufacturer config fail.
QUESTION
So sorry if this is really simple (also failing to install google play services on Marshmallow emulator, and getting a tad wound up!).
I am aiming to get GPS data in a Xamarin Android C# project on Visual Studio 2017 (15.6.3).
I am following the Xamarin Location Services walkthrough (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/xamarin/android/platform/maps-and-location/location#using-the-fused-location-provider) and source code examples. I have tried targeting Android 6.0 (my preferred) and also 7.1 and MonoAndroid6 and MonoAndroid71, respectively.
I have definitely installed the NuGet packages for Xamarin.GooglePlayService.Location, .Maps and the required 'base' libraries (.Base, .Basement and .Tasks) - versions 32.961.0 and 42.1021.1 (target dependant).
The following code tells me "The type or namespace name 'FusedLocationProviderClient' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?"
...ANSWER
Answered 2018-Apr-02 at 18:59There are three APIs levels involved in a Xamarin.Android
project, one is Xamarin specific, that is the one Target Framework
, not to be confused with the Target Android Version
that sets the targetSdkVersion
in the app's Manifest.
Target Framework
– Specifies which framework to use in building your application. This API level is used at compile time by Xamarin.Android.
Minimum Android Version
– Specifies the oldest Android version that you want your app to support. This API level is used at run time by Android.
Target Android Version
– Specifies the version of Android that your app is intended to run on. This API level is used at run time by Android.
Set your Target Framework
to the latest and greatest (currently 8.1), the Target Android Version
to 6.0
and (re-)install your packages.
