LocationSettingsRequest.Builder has a method setAlwaysShow(boolean show). While the document indicates it's currently doing nothing(updated 2015-07-05: updated Google documentation has removed this wording), setting builder.setAlwaysShow(true); will enable Google Maps behavior:

Here's the code that got it working:
if (googleApiClient == null) {
googleApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(getActivity())
.addApi(LocationServices.API)
.addConnectionCallbacks(this)
.addOnConnectionFailedListener(this).build();
googleApiClient.connect();
LocationRequest locationRequest = LocationRequest.create();
locationRequest.setPriority(LocationRequest.PRIORITY_HIGH_ACCURACY);
locationRequest.setInterval(30 * 1000);
locationRequest.setFastestInterval(5 * 1000);
LocationSettingsRequest.Builder builder = new LocationSettingsRequest.Builder()
.addLocationRequest(locationRequest);
//**************************
builder.setAlwaysShow(true); //this is the key ingredient
//**************************
PendingResult<LocationSettingsResult> result =
LocationServices.SettingsApi.checkLocationSettings(googleApiClient, builder.build());
result.setResultCallback(new ResultCallback<LocationSettingsResult>() {
@Override
public void onResult(LocationSettingsResult result) {
final Status status = result.getStatus();
final LocationSettingsStates state = result.getLocationSettingsStates();
switch (status.getStatusCode()) {
case LocationSettingsStatusCodes.SUCCESS:
// All location settings are satisfied. The client can initialize location
// requests here.
break;
case LocationSettingsStatusCodes.RESOLUTION_REQUIRED:
// Location settings are not satisfied. But could be fixed by showing the user
// a dialog.
try {
// Show the dialog by calling startResolutionForResult(),
// and check the result in onActivityResult().
status.startResolutionForResult(
getActivity(), 1000);
} catch (IntentSender.SendIntentException e) {
// Ignore the error.
}
break;
case LocationSettingsStatusCodes.SETTINGS_CHANGE_UNAVAILABLE:
// Location settings are not satisfied. However, we have no way to fix the
// settings so we won't show the dialog.
break;
}
}
});
}

I would like to add up some changes to kai's answer for those who are looking for handling Yes/No buttons.
Declare this constant in your activity
protected static final int REQUEST_CHECK_SETTINGS = 0x1;
call settingsrequest() in your onStart()
public void settingsrequest()
{
LocationRequest locationRequest = LocationRequest.create();
locationRequest.setPriority(LocationRequest.PRIORITY_HIGH_ACCURACY);
locationRequest.setInterval(30 * 1000);
locationRequest.setFastestInterval(5 * 1000);
LocationSettingsRequest.Builder builder = new LocationSettingsRequest.Builder()
.addLocationRequest(locationRequest);
builder.setAlwaysShow(true); //this is the key ingredient
PendingResult<LocationSettingsResult> result =
LocationServices.SettingsApi.checkLocationSettings(mGoogleApiClient, builder.build());
result.setResultCallback(new ResultCallback<LocationSettingsResult>() {
@Override
public void onResult(LocationSettingsResult result) {
final Status status = result.getStatus();
final LocationSettingsStates state = result.getLocationSettingsStates();
switch (status.getStatusCode()) {
case LocationSettingsStatusCodes.SUCCESS:
// All location settings are satisfied. The client can initialize location
// requests here.
break;
case LocationSettingsStatusCodes.RESOLUTION_REQUIRED:
// Location settings are not satisfied. But could be fixed by showing the user
// a dialog.
try {
// Show the dialog by calling startResolutionForResult(),
// and check the result in onActivityResult().
status.startResolutionForResult(MainActivity.this, REQUEST_CHECK_SETTINGS);
} catch (IntentSender.SendIntentException e) {
// Ignore the error.
}
break;
case LocationSettingsStatusCodes.SETTINGS_CHANGE_UNAVAILABLE:
// Location settings are not satisfied. However, we have no way to fix the

break;
}
}
});
}
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {

Take a look at google service documetation for api's and you will find everything well documented. For your request i would suggest to use the LocationSettingsRequest.Builder to reach your goal.
I have found an example by Kai in stackoverflow: Link
Using Kotlin
This solution is applicable for both Activity and Fragment by doing one following change:
For Activity resolvableApiException.startResolutionForResult(this@MainActivity, REQUEST_CHECK_SETTING)
For Fragment
startIntentSenderForResult(resolvableApiException.resolution.intentSender, REQUEST_CHECK_SETTING, null, 0, 0,0,null)
By using LocationSettingsResponse this task can be achieved.
inside MainActivity.kt
private fun checkLocationSetting()
{
locationRequest = LocationRequest.create()
locationRequest.apply {
priority=LocationRequest.PRIORITY_HIGH_ACCURACY
interval = 5000
fastestInterval = 2000
}
val builder = LocationSettingsRequest.Builder()
.addLocationRequest(locationRequest)
builder.setAlwaysShow(true)
val result: Task<LocationSettingsResponse> = LocationServices.getSettingsClient(applicationContext)
.checkLocationSettings(builder.build())
result.addOnCompleteListener {
try{
val response: LocationSettingsResponse = it.getResult(ApiException::class.java)
Toast.makeText(this@MainActivity, "GPS is On", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
Log.d(TAG, "checkSetting: GPS On")
}catch(e:ApiException){
when(e.statusCode){
LocationSettingsStatusCodes.RESOLUTION_REQUIRED ->{
val resolvableApiException = e as ResolvableApiException
// for fragment change below line to: startIntentSenderForResult(resolvableApiException.resolution.intentSender, REQUEST_CHECK_SETTING, null, 0, 0,0,null)
resolvableApiException.startResolutionForResult(this@MainActivity, REQUEST_CHECK_SETTING)
Log.d(TAG, "checkSetting: RESOLUTION_REQUIRED")
}
LocationSettingsStatusCodes.SETTINGS_CHANGE_UNAVAILABLE -> {
// USER DEVICE DOES NOT HAVE LOCATION OPTION
}
}
}
}
}
onActivityResult
override fun onActivityResult(requestCode: Int, resultCode: Int, data: Intent?) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data)
when(requestCode)
{
REQUEST_CHECK_SETTING ->{
when(resultCode){
Activity.RESULT_OK->{
Toast.makeText(this@MainActivity, "GPS is Turned on", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
}
Activity.RESULT_CANCELED ->{
Toast.makeText(this@MainActivity, "GPS is Required to use this app", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
}
}
}
}
}

Output:

I used this code to show the dialog at the bottom of the screen:
Dialog dlg = <code to create custom dialog>;
Window window = dlg.getWindow();
WindowManager.LayoutParams wlp = window.getAttributes();
wlp.gravity = Gravity.BOTTOM;
wlp.flags &= ~WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_DIM_BEHIND;
window.setAttributes(wlp);
This code also prevents android from dimming the background of the dialog, if you need it. You should be able to change the gravity parameter to move the dialog about
private void showPictureialog() {
final Dialog dialog = new Dialog(this,
android.R.style.Theme_Translucent_NoTitleBar);
// Setting dialogview
Window window = dialog.getWindow();
window.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);
window.setLayout(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT);
dialog.setTitle(null);
dialog.setContentView(R.layout.selectpic_dialog);
dialog.setCancelable(true);
dialog.show();
}
you can customize you dialog based on gravity and layout parameters change gravity and layout parameter on the basis of your requirenment
You need to use the latest version of Google Play service. latest version has one dialog to activate all required things to get the GPS.
From Android Developer Play Service documentation,
Location settings - While the FusedLocationProviderApi combines multiple sensors to give you the optimal location, the accuracy of the location your app receives still depends greatly on the settings enabled on the device (GPS, wifi, airplane mode, and others). Using the new SettingsApi class, you can bring up a Location Settings dialog which displays a one-touch control for users to change their settings without leaving your app.
Link directs to Play Service version documentation. Version 7.0 has introduced this new prompt.

Try this code to have permission like google map in your app:
private fun checkPermissions(): Boolean {
if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(
this,
Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION
) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED &&
ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(
this,
Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION
) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED
) {
return true
}
return false
}
private fun requestPermissions() {
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(
this,
arrayOf(
Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION,
Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION
),
PERMISSION_ID
)
}
override fun onRequestPermissionsResult(
requestCode: Int,
permissions: Array<String>,
grantResults: IntArray
) {
if (requestCode == PERMISSION_ID) {
if ((grantResults.isNotEmpty() && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED)) {
getLastLocation()
}
}
}
