Question

I’m currently coding a GPS application on Android. I’ve successfully getting the current location of the user, but it wont stop updating the location. How do I stop the onLocationChanged() once I get the user’s current location?

You can use removeUpdates() for removing any current registration for location updates of the current activity with the given LocationListener. After getting the Location for the first time you can unregister LocationListner updates by,

locationManager.removeUpdates(listener);
listener = null;
