** QUICK START GUIDE ** 1) Make sure you've downloaded and installed the Android Compatibility Library: http://developer.android.com/sdk/compatibility-library.html ** About this Project ** Project Home Page: https://github.com/fangstar/locationBP/ Maintained by: Mitchell Fang http://www.twitter.com/fangstar http://mfcoding.wordpress.com I took the project (http://code.google.com/p/android-protips-location/) done by Reto Meier, read Readme_orig.txt, and coarsely hacked out all the Google Places API code. Now all the app does is update the Latitude and Longitude location. I was hoping to make some kind of template of where one can just add some hooks to connect to their own DB but too lazy to finish it. So therefore you just get some real ugly code uploaded but hopefully one can figure it out easier than trying to figure out the "original" project. If enough requests I will clean it up and write documentation but would rather work on my own app than do documentation. ------- Snippet from original project Readme (Readme_orig.txt) It is an open-source reference implementation of a location-based app that incorporates several tips, tricks, best practices, and cheats for creating high quality apps. Particular attention has been paid to reducing the time between opening an app and seeing an up-to-date list of nearby venues and providing a reasonable level of offline support. The code implements all of the location best-practices for reducing latency and battery consumption as detailed in my Google I/O 2011 session, Android Protips: Advanced Topics for Expert Android Developers: http://www.google.com/events/io/2011/sessions/android-protips-advanced-topics-for-expert-android-app-developers.html
