Use the LocationManager.

LocationManager lm = (LocationManager)getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE); 
Location location = lm.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
double longitude = location.getLongitude();
double latitude = location.getLatitude();

The call to getLastKnownLocation() doesn't block - which means it will return null if no position is currently available - so you probably want to have a look at passing a LocationListener to the requestLocationUpdates() method instead, which will give you asynchronous updates of your location.

private final LocationListener locationListener = new LocationListener() {
    public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
        longitude = location.getLongitude();
        latitude = location.getLatitude();
    }
}

lm.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 2000, 10, locationListener);

You'll need to give your application the ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION permission if you want to use GPS.

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

You may also want to add the ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION permission for when GPS isn't available and select your location provider with the getBestProvider() method.

This code works just fine in one of my projects:

Copypublic class LocationManager {
        private static LocationManager requestManager;
        private FusedLocationProviderClient mLocationProviderClient;
        private Location mLocation;
        private Location mMyCurrentLocation;
        private locationSuccessListener mListener;

    public Location getLocation() {
        return mLocation;
    }

    public void setLocation(Location location) {
        mLocation = location;
    }

    private LocationManager(FusedLocationProviderClient fusedLocationProviderClient) {
        this.mLocationProviderClient = fusedLocationProviderClient;
    }

    public static LocationManager createInstance(FusedLocationProviderClient fusedLocationProviderClient) {
        if (requestManager != null) {
            return requestManager;
        } else {
            return requestManager = new LocationManager(fusedLocationProviderClient);
        }
    }

    public static LocationManager getInstance() {
        return requestManager;
    }

    public void setLocation(Activity activity) {
        mListener = (locationSuccessListener) activity;
        LocationCallback callback = new LocationCallback();
        LocationRequest locationRequest = new LocationRequest();
        Task<Void> r = mLocationProviderClient.requestLocationUpdates(locationRequest, callback, Looper.getMainLooper());
        r.addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener<Void>() {
            @Override
            public void onSuccess(Void aVoid) {
                mLocationProviderClient.getLastLocation().addOnSuccessListener(activity, new OnSuccessListener<Location>() {
                    @Override
                    public void onSuccess(Location location) {
                        mMyCurrentLocation = location;
                        mLocation = location;
                        if (location != null) {
                            mListener.onLocationReceived();
                            mLocationProviderClient.removeLocationUpdates(callback);
                        }
                    }
                });
            }
        });


    }

    public Location getMyCurrentLocation() {
        return mMyCurrentLocation;
    }


    public interface locationSuccessListener {
        void onLocationReceived();
    }

You need to do something like that:

Copypublic class PlacesActivity extends SingleFragmentActivity implements NavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener, LocationManager.locationSuccessListener

and then in your activity you will get this:

Copy@Override
    public void onLocationReceived() {
         Location l = LocationManager.getInstance().getMyCurrentLocation();
             if (l==null){
                 Toast.makeText(this, "unable to get location", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                 
             }
    }

to get permission you suppose to do something like this:

Copyif (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(Objects.requireNonNull(getActivity()), Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)
                != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
            ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(getActivity(),
                    new String[]{Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION},
                    0);
            

This information, and more, is available in the Location object that your app can retrieve from the fused location provider: https://developer.android.com/training/location/retrieve-current.html.

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