Before couple of months, I created GPSTracker library to help me to get GPS locations. In case you need to view GPSTracker > getLocation

Note

If the method / answer doesn't work. You need to use the official Google Provider: FusedLocationProviderApi.

Article: Getting the Last Known Location

If you are running your app on the simulator, then you should send a location to simulate it. The default is the location of GooglePlex, which is the one you are receiving.

Otherwise maybe your precission is not correct.

try to check this question for simulating locations.

Hope it helps.

In 2019 Best Offical Solution in Kotlin

Google API Client/FusedLocationApi are deprecated and Location Manager is not useful at all. So Google prefer Fused Location Provider Using the Google Play services location APIs "FusedLocationProviderClient" is used to get location and its better way for battery saving and accuracy

Here is sample code in kotlin to get the last known location /one-time location( equivalent to the current location)

 // declare a global variable of FusedLocationProviderClient
    private lateinit var fusedLocationClient: FusedLocationProviderClient

// in onCreate() initialize FusedLocationProviderClient
    fusedLocationClient = LocationServices.getFusedLocationProviderClient(context!!)

 /**
     * call this method for receive location
     * get location and give callback when successfully retrieve
     * function itself check location permission before access related methods
     *
     */
    fun getLastKnownLocation() {
            fusedLocationClient.lastLocation
                .addOnSuccessListener { location->
                    if (location != null) {
                       // use your location object
                        // get latitude , longitude and other info from this
                    }

                }

    }

If your app can continuously track the location then you have to receive Receive location updates

Check the sample for that in kotlin

// declare a global variable FusedLocationProviderClient
        private lateinit var fusedLocationClient: FusedLocationProviderClient

    // in onCreate() initialize FusedLocationProviderClient
        fusedLocationClient = LocationServices.getFusedLocationProviderClient(context!!)


      // globally declare LocationRequest
        private lateinit var locationRequest: LocationRequest

        // globally declare LocationCallback    
        private lateinit var locationCallback: LocationCallback


        /**
         * call this method in onCreate
         * onLocationResult call when location is changed 
         */
        private fun getLocationUpdates()
        {

                fusedLocationClient = LocationServices.getFusedLocationProviderClient(context!!)
                locationRequest = LocationRequest()
                locationRequest.interval = 50000
                locationRequest.fastestInterval = 50000
                locationRequest.smallestDisplacement = 170f // 170 m = 0.1 mile
                locationRequest.priority = LocationRequest.PRIORITY_HIGH_ACCURACY //set according to your app function
                locationCallback = object : LocationCallback() {
                    override fun onLocationResult(locationResult: LocationResult?) {
                        locationResult ?: return

                        if (locationResult.locations.isNotEmpty()) {
                            // get latest location 
                            val location =
                                locationResult.lastLocation
                            // use your location object
                            // get latitude , longitude and other info from this
                        }


                    }
                }
        }

        //start location updates
        private fun startLocationUpdates() {
            fusedLocationClient.requestLocationUpdates(
                locationRequest,
                locationCallback,
                null /* Looper */
            )
        }

        // stop location updates
        private fun stopLocationUpdates() {
            fusedLocationClient.removeLocationUpdates(locationCallback)
        }

        // stop receiving location update when activity not visible/foreground
        override fun onPause() {
            super.onPause()
            stopLocationUpdates()
        }

        // start receiving location update when activity  visible/foreground
        override fun onResume() {
            super.onResume()
            startLocationUpdates()
        }

Make sure you take care about Mainfaist permission and runtime permission for location

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/>

and for Gradle add this

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:17.0.0'
