Answer 1

You can get GPS location without map. try the code

call the GPSTracker class to get the latitude and longitudes.

GPSTracker gps = new GPSTracker(this);
double latitude = gps.getLatitude();
double longitude = gps.getLongitude();

here is GPSTracker class

import android.app.AlertDialog;
import android.app.Service;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.DialogInterface;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.location.Location;
import android.location.LocationListener;
import android.location.LocationManager;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.IBinder;
import android.provider.Settings;
import android.util.Log;

public class GPSTracker extends Service implements LocationListener {

 private final Context mContext;

 // flag for GPS status
 boolean isGPSEnabled = false;

 // flag for network status
 boolean isNetworkEnabled = false;

 // flag for GPS status
 boolean canGetLocation = false;

 Location location; // location
 double latitude; // latitude
 double longitude; // longitude

 // The minimum distance to change Updates in meters
 private static final long MIN_DISTANCE_CHANGE_FOR_UPDATES = 10; // 10 meters

 // The minimum time between updates in milliseconds
 private static final long MIN_TIME_BW_UPDATES = 1000 * 60 * 1; // 1 minute

 // Declaring a Location Manager
 protected LocationManager locationManager;

 public GPSTracker(Context context) {
    this.mContext = context;
    getLocation();
  }

 public Location getLocation() {
     try {
        locationManager = (LocationManager) mContext
                .getSystemService(LOCATION_SERVICE);

        // getting GPS status
        isGPSEnabled = locationManager
                .isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);

        // getting network status
        isNetworkEnabled = locationManager
                .isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);


        if (!isGPSEnabled && !isNetworkEnabled) {
            // no network provider is enabled
        } else {
            this.canGetLocation = true;
            if (isNetworkEnabled) {
                locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(
                        LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER,
                        MIN_TIME_BW_UPDATES,
                        MIN_DISTANCE_CHANGE_FOR_UPDATES, this);
                Log.d("Network", "Network");
                if (locationManager != null) {
                    location =   locationManager.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);
                    if (location != null) {
                        latitude = location.getLatitude();
                        longitude = location.getLongitude();
                    }
                 }
             }
             // if GPS Enabled get lat/long using GPS Services
             if (isGPSEnabled) {
                if (location == null) {
                    locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(
                            LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER,
                            MIN_TIME_BW_UPDATES,
                            MIN_DISTANCE_CHANGE_FOR_UPDATES, this);
                    Log.d("GPS Enabled", "GPS Enabled");

Answer 2

You can get location without map by using this code.

    startGPSBtn.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {

                GPSTracker gps = new GPSTracker(YourTab.this);
                if (gps.canGetLocation()) {
                    getLocation(startGPSBtn ,gps);
                    startGPSLatitude = String.valueOf(gps.getLatitude());
                    startGPSLongitude = String.valueOf(gps.getLongitude());
                } else {
                    gps.showSettingsAlert();
                }
            }
    });
    endGPSBtn.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {

                GPSTracker gps = new GPSTracker(YourTab.this);
                if (gps.canGetLocation()) {
                    getLocation(endGPSBtn, gps);
                    endGPSLatitude = String.valueOf(gps.getLatitude());
                    endeGPSLongitude = String.valueOf(gps.getLongitude());
                } else {
                    gps.showSettingsAlert();
                }

        }
    });

In additional you can check for internet is available or not , Device GPS is on or off.
