if the user disables the gps in the phone the location will no longer be updated, as I can do for the application to request re-activate the gps and later to update my current location?

Glad you got the LocationSensor working Miguel. If the user disables the gps in the phone, yes, the location will no longer be updated. The only thing that can be done is to manually turn on the Location Settings on the device. It is impossible to turn the GPS hardware on or off using code. It is a security feature of Android.

Depending on the version of Andorid, there is a screen in the device Settings that looks like this:

Your app can provide code to display the Location Setting options like this:

Gps enabled / disabled, but does it work?

The devices location settings can only be set manually. The LocationSensor.Enabled = true or false disables the LocationSensor component from actively using the GPS receiver. It does not deactivate the devices ability to use the GPS receiver (it cannot programably turn it off or on.) If the GPS is activated manually, it stays on until the USER changes the Android Settings to deactivate it. To deactivate use of the receiver, uncheck in the Settings Location sources Use GPS satellites… [Lo…

but the user MUST make the changes manually using the screen provided by the ActivityStarter.
