How to retrieve the GPS location via SMS

I made an Application that gives me the location of my Android phone.

Now I want to make开发者_运维问答 a method that helps me to retrieve the GPS location of my phone (latitude longitude or the address if possible) with an SMS.

Exemple: phone number 558899. I send an Sms with "get location" to 558899 an get a message back with the coordinates.

Use the Geocoder class. Pass it's getFromLocation() method the longitude and latitude and the maximal number of results you want to get returned. You'll get a List of Address objects.
