Trying to get the most accurate device location from GPS or network in Android

Question

I am trying to determine the most accurate location of the device in the shortest possible time.

I store the data as a geolocation and display it on a map.

The last time I activated GPS on my device and let it set the location lock, I was about 80 miles from where I am now.

I have a location manager setup and a location listener.

If I do this, I will get NULL.

  myLocOverlay = new MyLocationOverlay(this, mapView);
  GeoPoint test = myLocOverlay.getMyLocation();

but in the next two lines;

  myLocOverlay.enableMyLocation();      
  mapView.getOverlays().add(myLocOverlay);

In this case, the overlay on the map shows the current location. He is using a network provider, but is also trying to get a GPS fix (he cannot, because I'm in a room and not where the top floor is).

If I build the geodata as follows:

    if(lm.getLastKnownLocation("gps") != null) 
    {
     test = new GeoPoint(
        (int) (lm.getLastKnownLocation("gps").getLatitude() * 1E6), 
        (int) (lm.getLastKnownLocation("gps").getLongitude() * 1E6));
    }

    else
    {

    if(lm.getLastKnownLocation("network") != null) 
    {
     test = new GeoPoint(
       (int) (lm.getLastKnownLocation("network").getLatitude() * 1E6), 
       (int) (lm.getLastKnownLocation("network").getLongitude() * 1E6));
    }
    //bad things
    }
