I’ve created a service implementing LocationManager. I have a question though.

Let’s say I ask for a location update, but the user can’t get any GPS connection where he/she is. In order to save battery life, how to define I would like the app to look for location datas for example 60 sec? If a location is found below 60 sec, it is signified to the user and if the 60 sec limit is reached, it will be signified to the user.

    • In the absence of a data connection please consider running the timer longer as SUPL fails.
