what i should know to do this in android - android-gps

Question

i wanna ask you exactly about the action that when i click on the button, the result will be inserted directly and automatically into their "input id" ... how can i do it in the android??

Answer 1

Well, if you are not familiar with Android, then I will advise you to take some tutorials about Android basics and Java.
Apart from that, Android does provide geocoding functionality, you should have latitude and longitude to run the following code:
Geocoder geocoder;
List<Address> addresses;
geocoder = new Geocoder(this, Locale.getDefault());
addresses = geocoder.getFromLocation(latitude, longitude, 1); // Here 1 represent max location result to returned, by documents it recommended 1 to 5
String address = addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(0);
String city = addresses.get(0).getLocality();
String state = addresses.get(0).getAdminArea();
String country = addresses.get(0).getCountryName();
String postalCode = addresses.get(0).getPostalCode();
String knownName = addresses.get(0).getFeatureName();
If you don't have the latitude and longitude of the user and wanted to access it also from an android device, you can use the following process:
AndroidManifest.xml
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
Activity
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
TextView textview;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.geo_locations);
// check if GPS enabled
GPSTracker gpsTracker = new GPSTracker(this);
if (gpsTracker.getIsGPSTrackingEnabled())
{
String stringLatitude = String.valueOf(gpsTracker.latitude);
textview = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.fieldLatitude);
textview.setText(stringLatitude);
String stringLongitude = String.valueOf(gpsTracker.longitude);
textview = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.fieldLongitude);
textview.setText(stringLongitude);
String country = gpsTracker.getCountryName(this);
textview = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.fieldCountry);
textview.setText(country);
String city = gpsTracker.getLocality(this);
textview = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.fieldCity);
textview.setText(city);
String postalCode = gpsTracker.getPostalCode(this);
textview = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.fieldPostalCode);
textview.setText(postalCode);
String addressLine = gpsTracker.getAddressLine(this);
textview = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.fieldAddressLine);
textview.setText(addressLine);
}
else
{
// can't get location
// GPS or Network is not enabled
// Ask user to enable GPS/network in settings
gpsTracker.showSettingsAlert();
