Android Geocoder returns null address list

Question

Hi I have written a code to get addresses in new york and the code as follows.

public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

        txtLocationView.setText("Longitudes: "
                + String.valueOf(location.getLongitude()) + "Latitudes:"
                + String.valueOf(location.getLatitude()));
        Geocoder geoCoder = new Geocoder(this, Locale.ENGLISH);

        try {
            List<Address> addresses = geoCoder.getFromLocation(
                    location.getLatitude(), location.getLongitude(), 10);

            String address = addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(0);
            String city = addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(1);
            String country = addresses.get(0).getAddressLine(2);
            txtAddressView.setText("Address:"  + addresses);
        } catch (IOException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }


    }

But tis has returned a null Address list . um passing locaion correctly . What can possibly go wrong?

Haha yeah! Coincident indeed! Just came across your question while I was browsing through. — Ranhiru Jude Cooray, Nov 01 '13 at 05:52
The javadoc of getFromLocation states that it "Returns null or empty list if no matches were found or there is no backend service available." So guard against it. — ditkin, Nov 01 '13 at 05:54
