NetworkLocationProvider

lisztkao — Tue, 11 Oct 2016 05:33:43 GMT

As far as I know, NetworkLocationProvider has been phased out since android 1.5. However, there are many network location providers such as :

com.google.Android.location.network.NetworkLocationService
com.baidu.map.location.BaiduNetworkLocationService
com.amap.android.location.NetworkLocationService
com.qualcomm.location.nlp.NlpProxyService

Does Freescale codebase support network location? How we to add such provider in our codebase?

GitHub - microg/AppleWifiNlpBackend: UnifiedNlp Backend that uses Apple's service to resolve wifi locations. Location ca…

Note that it's available on F-Droid store which also works fine on i.MX BSP:

F-Droid – Free and Open Source Android App Repository
