FrgAddNewJobsLocation.java (class extends Fragment)

@Override
public void onStart() {

    super.onStart();

    initilizeMap();
    appLocationService = new AppLocationService(getActivity());
    nwLocation = appLocationService.getLocation(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);
    gpsLocation = appLocationService.getLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
}

AppLocationService.java

public class AppLocationService extends Service implements LocationListener {

    protected LocationManager locationManager;
    Location location;

    private static final long MIN_DISTANCE_FOR_UPDATE = 10;
    private static final long MIN_TIME_FOR_UPDATE = 1000 * 60 * 2;

    public AppLocationService(Context context) {

        locationManager = (LocationManager) context.getSystemService(LOCATION_SERVICE);
    }

    public Location getLocation(String provider) {

        if (locationManager.isProviderEnabled(provider)) {

            locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(provider, MIN_TIME_FOR_UPDATE, MIN_DISTANCE_FOR_UPDATE, this);
            if (locationManager != null) {

                location = locationManager.getLastKnownLocation(provider);
                return location;
            }
        }
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {}

    @Override
    public void onProviderDisabled(String provider) {}

    @Override
    public void onProviderEnabled(String provider) {}

    @Override
    public void onStatusChanged(String provider, int status, Bundle extras) {}

    @Override
    public IBinder onBind(Intent arg0) {

        return null;
    }
}

Answer 1

Instead of appLocationService = new AppLocationService(getActivity());

use:

Context mcontext;      
appLocationService = new AppLocationService(mContext);

Also check if you have provided internet permission in manifest file
