There are web services you can contact for this sort of information. The one we use where I work belongs to Google: The Google Geocoding API. The word for what you want to do is "geocoding".

That's what the android.location.Geocoder class does.

So Android can't find the com.draw.FindLocation class - is it part of the .apk file? It's not part of Android itself.

Instead of posting attachments, it would help if you copy paste the stack trace

I run my code which I paste above and everything is ok.
Execution result is on the image placed here

Your console says there is a problem with your device. You tried run application once or maybe more?

You can try choose your Android API version 1.6, I know that can help sometimes.
