Wikitude

Hi, 

I'm curently trying to create my own AR app with POI for a school project, so I used the Android Studio SDK.

The problem is that I get a " Trying to find out where you are" error message when I launch my app.

My location service is enabled and my app doesn't appear in "Recent Location Requests" setting.

Here is the error I get (I use the screen from a previous topic I found).

And because I'm not confident about my project structure, here it is:

Don't hesitate to ask me questions for further details, and, please,pardon my English as it's not my mother tongue.

My mistake, It worked now , 

THANK you Théo , I have been struggling with this problem for like 20 days , I'm so grateful .

No problem! Hope you'll manage to create what you wanted to do ;)

I have the same issue... it always appears "trying to find out where you are". 
Can you tell me your steps to make the app work?

Thanks, 
Luís

Hi Théo, i copied your project and tried to run but i get unable to resolve symbol AppCompactActivity, so i copied all the code into a new project file and the problem solved. but i get the same problem you faced before which is "Trying to find out where you are". Can you please guide me where you solve it? Thanks

Hi Eva,

I am new to android and wikitude, I am working on application which uses wikitude sdk to augment POIs.

1. I made my own app, now I want to use wikitude functionality in it.

2. I made changes in manifest and gradle, included library for using wikitude.

3. I created assets folder and pasted the folder from wikitude SDK samples, named POI with labels.

Now my app is running, activity for wikitude is loading, camera is working, 

problem is i am getting symbol showing "trying to find your location".

All permissions are given, internet is on but still.

Please tell me did i need to make any changes in code or i skipped any step.

The sample app you have provided is working fine on the same setup.; Please respond urgently as I am facing a deadline and found no other place to resolve this issue.

Hello Théo,

did you solve the problem?

I have the same problem, would appreciate it if you tell me what to do.

Didn't solved it entirely, did another post on the support but get no answer :(

We get some better results while trying to add our own location data with the Google API.

The first of us who find give it to the other :) 

Thanks for your fast answer!

My GPS is enabled and I'm in a big town so no problem about the signal.

As I said, the app is not requesting to access the location service, so I can't authorized it especially.

I tested it with differents phones (Samsung Galaxy S6 included) so requirements are fine.

Thanks again,

Theo

Sure, once I find a solution i will tell you.

but could you please tell me how did you add your own location data?

I got some problems with this sometimes. It just depend from my connection to GPS network. Try it outside (it really doesn't work well inside buildings :/ )

Thank god, someone with the same issue as me, I've been stuck on this for a month and a half, and was not able to get a solution from the support team. I am currently downloading the source code to test it, hope it was a problem on my behalf. Thanks Théo!! :)
