android - Checking the location every 10 minutes in the background -

my requirement check location of device every 10 minutes using background service. basic gist of should happen every 10 minutes -

• start service.
• wait minute (maximum) listener location, once location taken, remove listener , stop service.
• if listener doesn't respond, use getlastknownlocation(), remove listener , stop service.
• if gps off, reports app (this step working fine)

what have tried doing till -

• made service triggered every 10 minutes using alarmmanager
• added location listener inside service.
• onlocationchanged() locationlistener has method - stopself() included, service ends after receiving location. however, method called numerous times. checked while debugging. because there many instances of onlocationchanged() called ?

i don't need entire code answer, rather appreciate strategy should adopt fulfil requirements without hurting battery much. approach, unless , until location found, gps remains on draining battery constantly.

instead of alarm manager scheduling each 10 min, use fusedlocationapi , location request in order accurate location.

            locationrequest mlocationrequest = locationrequest.create();             mlocationrequest.setpriority(locationrequest.priority_balanced_power_accuracy);//change priority_high_accuracy more accurate.             mlocationrequest.setinterval(600000); // update location every 10 minute             locationservices.fusedlocationapi.requestlocationupdates(                     mgoogleapiclient, mlocationrequest, this); 

call method whenever need location

/**  * location detail fused location api.  * @param mcontext  * @return  */ private location getlocationdetails(context mcontext) {     location location = null;     if (mgoogleapiclient != null) {         if (activitycompat.checkselfpermission(mcontext, manifest.permission.access_fine_location) != packagemanager.permission_granted && activitycompat.checkselfpermission(mcontext, manifest.permission.access_coarse_location) != packagemanager.permission_granted) {             log.d(tag,"location permission denied");             return null;         }else {             location = locationservices.fusedlocationapi.getlastlocation(mgoogleapiclient);         }     }     return location; }
