package com.example.raghotham.androidgeocodelocation;


import java.util.List;

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

Button btnGPSShowLocation;
Button btnShowAddress;
TextView tvAddress;
final DatabaseHandler1 db = new DatabaseHandler1(this);

AppLocationService appLocationService;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);




    tvAddress = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.tvAddress);
    appLocationService = new AppLocationService(
            MainActivity.this);

    btnGPSShowLocation = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnGPSShowLocation);
    btnGPSShowLocation.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View arg0) {
            Location gpsLocation = appLocationService
                    .getLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
            if (gpsLocation != null) {
                double latitude = gpsLocation.getLatitude();
                double longitude = gpsLocation.getLongitude();
                String result = "Latitude: " + gpsLocation.getLatitude() +
                        " Longitude: " + gpsLocation.getLongitude();

                tvAddress.setText(result);


            } else {
                showSettingsAlert();
            }
        }
    });

    btnShowAddress = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnShowAddress);
    btnShowAddress.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View arg0) {

            Location location = appLocationService
                    .getLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);



            if (location != null) {
                double latitude = location.getLatitude();
                double longitude = location.getLongitude();

                LocationAddress locationAddress = new LocationAddress();


                locationAddress.getAddressFromLocation(latitude, longitude,
                        getApplicationContext(), new GeocoderHandler());





            } else {
                showSettingsAlert();
            }

        }
    });

}

public void showSettingsAlert() {
       AlertDialog.Builder alertDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(
            MainActivity.this);
         alertDialog.setTitle("SETTINGS");
    alertDialog.setMessage("Enable Location Provider! Go to settings menu?");
    alertDialog.setPositiveButton("Settings",
            new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
                    Intent intent = new Intent(
                            Settings.ACTION_LOCATION_SOURCE_SETTINGS);
                    MainActivity.this.startActivity(intent);
                }
            });
    alertDialog.setNegativeButton("Cancel",
            new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
                    dialog.cancel();
                }
            });
    alertDialog.show();
}

private class GeocoderHandler extends Handler {

    @Override
    public void handleMessage(Message message) {

        String locationAddress;
        switch (message.what) {
            case 1:
                Bundle bundle = message.getData();
                locationAddress = bundle.getString("address");

                Log.d("testing: ", locationAddress);
                break;
            default:
                locationAddress = null;

        }
        tvAddress.setText(locationAddress);
    }
   }
}

I am able to store the latitude and longitude but not the address part.

Simply return your address as String and store it in your local db using SQlite. It is easy to store a string in SQLite. Below is the code to get address.

 public static String getAddressFromLocation(Context context,
                double latitude, double longitude) {
            String address = "";
            Geocoder geocoder;
            List<Address> listAddresses;

            try {
                geocoder = new Geocoder(context, Locale.getDefault());
                if (isNetworkAvailable(context)) {
                    listAddresses = geocoder
                            .getFromLocation(latitude, longitude, 1);
                    for (Address addrss : listAddresses) {
                        String adminArea = addrss.getAdminArea();
                        Logging(SHOW_LOG, TAG, "adminArea = " + adminArea);

                        String locality = addrss.getLocality();
                        Logging(SHOW_LOG, TAG, "locality = " + locality);

                        String postalCode = addrss.getPostalCode();
                        Logging(SHOW_LOG, TAG, "postalCode = " + postalCode);

                        String address1 = addrss.getAddressLine(0);
                        Logging(SHOW_LOG, TAG, "address1 = " + address1);

                        String cityState = addrss.getAddressLine(1);
                        Logging(SHOW_LOG, TAG, "cityState = " + cityState);

                        String countryName = addrss.getCountryName();
                        Logging(SHOW_LOG, TAG, "countryName = " + countryName);

                    }
                    address = listAddresses.get(0).getAddressLine(0) + " "
                            + listAddresses.get(0).getAddressLine(1) + " "
                            + listAddresses.get(0).getCountryName();
                } else {
                    address = "";
                }
            } catch (Exception e) {
                address = "";
            }

            Log.i(TAG, "address : " + address);
            return address;
        }
