How to get Latitude and Longitude of the mobile device in android?

Use the LocationManager.

LocationManager lm = (LocationManager)getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE); 
Location location = lm.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
double longitude = location.getLongitude();
double latitude = location.getLatitude();

The call to getLastKnownLocation() doesn't block - which means it will return null if no position is currently available - so you probably want to have a look at passing a LocationListener to the requestLocationUpdates() method instead, which will give you asynchronous updates of your location.

private final LocationListener locationListener = new LocationListener() {
    public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
        longitude = location.getLongitude();
        latitude = location.getLatitude();
    }
}

lm.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 2000, 10, locationListener);

You'll need to give your application the ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION permission if you want to use GPS.

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />

You may also want to add the ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION permission for when GPS isn't available and select your location provider with the getBestProvider() method.


Here is the class LocationFinder to find the GPS location. This class will call MyLocation, which will do the business.

LocationFinder

public class LocationFinder extends Activity {

    int increment = 4;
    MyLocation myLocation = new MyLocation();

    // private ProgressDialog dialog;

    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.intermediat);
        myLocation.getLocation(getApplicationContext(), locationResult);

        boolean r = myLocation.getLocation(getApplicationContext(),
            locationResult);

        startActivity(new Intent(LocationFinder.this,
        // Nearbyhotelfinder.class));
            GPSMyListView.class));
        finish();
    }

    public LocationResult locationResult = new LocationResult() {

        @Override
        public void gotLocation(Location location) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            double Longitude = location.getLongitude();
            double Latitude = location.getLatitude();

            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Got Location",
                Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

            try {
                SharedPreferences locationpref = getApplication()
                    .getSharedPreferences("location", MODE_WORLD_READABLE);
                SharedPreferences.Editor prefsEditor = locationpref.edit();
                prefsEditor.putString("Longitude", Longitude + "");
                prefsEditor.putString("Latitude", Latitude + "");
                prefsEditor.commit();
                System.out.println("SHARE PREFERENCE ME PUT KAR DIYA.");
            } catch (Exception e) {
                // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    };

    // handler for the background updating

}

MyLocation

public class MyLocation {

    Timer timer1;

    boolean gps_enabled=false;
    boolean network_enabled=false;

    public boolean getLocation(Context context, LocationResult result)
    {
        //I use LocationResult callback class to pass location value from MyLocation to user code.
        locationResult=result;
        if(lm==null)
            lm = (LocationManager) context.getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);

        //exceptions will be thrown if provider is not permitted.
        try{gps_enabled=lm.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);}catch(Exception ex){}
        try{network_enabled=lm.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);}catch(Exception ex){}

        //Toast.makeText(context, gps_enabled+" "+network_enabled,     Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

        //don't start listeners if no provider is enabled
        if(!gps_enabled && !network_enabled)
            return false;

        if(gps_enabled)
            lm.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 0, 0, locationListenerGps);
        if(network_enabled)
            lm.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER, 0, 0, locationListenerNetwork);
        timer1=new Timer();


        timer1.schedule(new GetLastLocation(), 10000);
    //    Toast.makeText(context, " Yaha Tak AAya", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        return true;
    }

    LocationListener locationListenerGps = new LocationListener() {
        public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
            timer1.cancel();
            locationResult.gotLocation(location);
            lm.removeUpdates(this);
            lm.removeUpdates(locationListenerNetwork);
        }
