Android MapView Initial Location -

my app starts detecting location launches when load mapactivity time later takes while before mylocationoverlay.runonfirstfix fired.

am able somehow pass location have map when created?

i find hard believe runonfirst fix taking long time run if have active location listener or had 1 should location pretty quickly:

runonfirstfix:

queues runnable executed have location fix. if have fix, we'll execute runnable , return true. if not, we'll hang on runnable , return false; location fix, we'll run in in new thread.
