Hi. I'm facing a little problem right now.

In my App i have to draw a Bitmap at my current location in order to draw a route to an other location.

What do i have to do to get the GeoPoint of my current location.
I dont have to update it constantly, just have to draw it once.

To get the GeoPoint of your current location you'd need to do something like



that should give you a GeoPoint that has your current location built in. Oh ya, and

What error does logcat give? NullPointerException?

Can you pastebin or post you code?

As of now, i'd say add a location listener. That way it will update to wherever you are at any point in time.
