Hello @kibotu

In new android 12 version this error is occur dew to pending intent message log show this

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: : Targeting S+ (version 31 and above) requires that one of FLAG_IMMUTABLE or FLAG_MUTABLE be specified when creating a PendingIntent. Strongly consider using FLAG_IMMUTABLE, only use FLAG_MUTABLE if some functionality depends on the PendingIntent being mutable, e.g. if it needs to be used with inline replies or bubbles. at android.app.PendingIntent.checkFlags(PendingIntent.java:382) at android.app.PendingIntent.getBroadcastAsUser(PendingIntent.java:673) at android.app.PendingIntent.getBroadcast(PendingIntent.java:660) at com.sprotte.geolocator.tracking.LocationTracker.getTrackingPendingIntent(LocationTracker.kt:32) at com.sprotte.geolocator.tracking.LocationTracker.requestLocationUpdates(LocationTracker.kt:93) at com.sprotte.geolocator.tracking.LocationTracker.requestLocationUpdates(LocationTracker.kt:68) at com.royalways.montecarloretail.activity.LoginActivity$3.onResponse(LoginActivity.java:314) at retrofit2.DefaultCallAdapterFactory$ExecutorCallbackCall$1.lambda$onResponse$0$retrofit2-DefaultCallAdapterFactory$ExecutorCallbackCall$1(DefaultCallAdapterFactory.java:89) at retrofit2.DefaultCallAdapterFactory$ExecutorCallbackCall$1$$ExternalSyntheticLambda1.run(Unknown Source:6) at android.os.Handler.handleCallback(Handler.java:938) at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:99) at android.os.Looper.loopOnce(Looper.java:226) at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:313) at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:8663) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Native Method) at com.android.internal.os.RuntimeInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(RuntimeInit.java:567) at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:1135)

    my some R&D show this code 
    
     val updatedPendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(
    applicationContext,
    NOTIFICATION_REQUEST_CODE,
    updatedIntent,
    PendingIntent.FLAG_IMMUTABLE or PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT // setting the mutability flag 
    )

Since you are using AlarmManager you should be able to use the IMMUTABLE flag.

Please look in to it.

thanks

Hello @kibotu

Library is very accurate but the Lat Long and Address not coming properly from Library. library give location update with that manner

E/LocationTrackerService: onLocationResult [Location[fused 37.422065,-122.084084 hAcc=603 et=+2h8m29s292ms vAcc=??? sAcc=??? bAcc=???]]

Please make some methods in lib to fetch lat, long and address with functions (methods)

for example getLat(); getLong; getAddress();

Thanks

There is an issue with any geofence library that it doesn't work when the device is in doze mode. If the device is in the car and person is going to office from home, then because of the doze mode state, geofence doesn't trigger. You can also try that use case, by forcing your phone into doze mode using adb commands.

Hi Is it possible to supply the values that determines how long before we get a location update at runtime instead of using config.xml ? I am trying to allow the users to specify these parameters , so it's not convenient to have them hard-coded in an xml file

Thank you

How to you configure for use of GPS and other Location strategies such as

criteria.setPowerRequirement(Criteria.POWER_LOW); // Chose your desired power consumption level. criteria.setAccuracy(Criteria.ACCURACY_FINE);

Is it possible to use multiple transition types? like:

return new Geofence(
                String.valueOf(id),
                latLng.latitude,
                latLng.longitude,
                radius,
                name,
                name,
                GEOFENCE_TRANSITION_ENTER | GEOFENCE_TRANSITION_DWELL | GEOFENCE_TRANSITION_EXIT);

And then check the transition type on the service:

 private void handleEnterExit(Geofence geofence) {
            int transitionType = geofence.getTransitionType();
        
            if (GEOFENCE_TRANSITION_ENTER == transitionType || GEOFENCE_TRANSITION_DWELL == transitionType) {
Log.d(TAG, "Triggered enteringa geofence location: " + locationFound.getName());
}
}

same error we are getting in this dependency implementation 'com.github.exozet:Geolocator:latest'

Hi I have changed the xml values as follow: `

<integer name="location_update_interval_in_millis">180000</integer>
<integer name="location_fastest_update_interval_in_millis">180000</integer>
<integer name="location_max_wait_time_interval_in_millis">300000</integer>
<integer name="location_min_distance_for_updates_in_meters">50</integer>

EDIT: I've noticed that the first three integer values are used here: https://github.com/exozet/Geolocator/blob/master/Geolocator/src/main/java/com/sprotte/geolocator/tracking/LocationTracker.kt but the location_min_distance_for_updates_in_meters is not used. Could this be it? How to solve it?

Thanks very much

This is not an issue really, I am just wondering if this library can be used on Wear OS devices. I am trying to use the Geofence but I am not getting any hit. By the way how do you set the LoiteringDelay for delay between GEOFENCE_TRANSITION_ENTER and GEOFENCE_TRANSITION_DWELLING? I am running it on a Fossil Falster 3, Android 9, API 28.

Would be cool to also set the expiration duration, and loitering delay on the Geofence object.

For example:

.setExpirationDuration(Geofence.NEVER_EXPIRE)
.setLoiteringDelay(3000)

Hello @kibotu

Hello

In android background location not working, I am didn't get any location after the version 31 (Android 12) on higher version form android 12 location service not working. please look in to it.

Thanks Bishal Malick

I am not able to get callback when i am enter or exit in geo fence location class GeofenceIntentService : GeofenceIntentService() {

override fun onGeofence(geofence: Geofence) {
	Log.v(GeoFenceIntentService::class.java.simpleName, "onGeofence $geofence")	    
}

}

this method not called . so please help

Permission needed :- ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION

if we don't add this permission ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION in manifest & don't take permission from user at runtime then lib. is not able to add geo-fence

see this stackoverflow answer.

so please update the lib for this and mention the permission that user need to declare this in manifest.
