Turning the GPS on requires user interaction as a security measure. If any application were able to turn the GPS on without the user knowing, that would be a very big privacy concern.

You can launch an Intent that takes the user to the GPS screen to turn it on / off.

startActivity(new Intent(Settings.ACTION_LOCATION_SOURCE_SETTINGS));
