Re: [android-developers] Re: How to make a Service That will periodically send the Users Location on a server

I guess the problem is, if your location is unavailable, how are you expecting that that will be fixed?  This doesn't make any sense, if it's not available, it's not available,

Bro , Don't dramatize things out here. I have asked a question thats it.

How is asking for relevant details dramatizing it?

It's spelled "that's".

 

For the first the first time I have asked a question on any forum regarding a help in my 8 months of development time.

Not important.

 

I was not able to make a code because the code which I have made is not working.

That's like telling a doctor, "I don't feel well" and expecting a diagnosis. You need to provide details.

 

If you can provide the code than it will be really be helpful or I can also post my code out here than you can tell me where I am doing it wrong

 

:)

Since that's what the guy was asking for, why do you give him a hard time?

You are more likely to get help developing your own service if tell us in which areas you have been less than successful.  If you are looking for a full piece of code already written for you then try Google ;-)

Follow his advice.
