I’m creating an app where the user needs to see his/her geo location with getMyLocation(), but this is returning null. Is there any solution for this, because I did read that the getMyLocation() method is always returning null. I’m new to Google Maps, so any help will be appreciated!

Code:

GoogleMap map = ((SupportMapFragment)  getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map)).getMap();
map.setMapType(GoogleMap.MAP_TYPE_HYBRID);
map.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
Location myLocation = map.getMyLocation();

if( myLocation != null ){
    helper.showToast( "Latitude: " + myLocation.getLatitude() + "\nLongitude: " + myLocation.getLongitude() );
}
