Q:

Location Service doesn't work in fragment

I'm trying to get a location to show the three closest restaurants in a fragment.
The location should be get before load the View because the position of the resturants depends on the location.

The location received is 0.0 because the View load before getting the location. How can I solve it?
Thanks in advance

A:

You're using the broadcasts, this would work as well. you just need to update the LocationReceiver.onReceive method to update the Views there. basically your saying "hey LocationService, get my restaurants. The LocationService Broadcasts it to you saying, hey you these are the restaurants. " And you're only storing the coordinates, but not refreshing the Views. you need to take into consideration that this process takes time, and your views will be already drawn. Just refresh all the views after receiving the broadcast. It will do it. Sorry, only understood your code now ;)
