Get the latest known location on Android synchronously

What would be the “right” way to get the last known location on Android using LocationClient (v2 API) using synchronous ?


UPDATE

This is the best I came up with (it is not synchronous, but it overcomes the burden of working with connect()and onConnected()every time the last known location is required):

public enum SystemServicesNew implements GooglePlayServicesClient.ConnectionCallbacks, GooglePlayServicesClient.OnConnectionFailedListener {

    INSTANCE;

    private LocationClient mLocationClient;
    private Location mLastKnownLocation;

    static {
        INSTANCE.mLocationClient = new LocationClient(MyApp.getAppContext(), INSTANCE, INSTANCE);
        INSTANCE.mLastKnownLocation = new Location("");
        INSTANCE.mLastKnownLocation.setLatitude(0);
        INSTANCE.mLastKnownLocation.setLongitude(0);
        INSTANCE.getLastKnownLocation(); // fire it already so subsequent calls get the real location
    }

    public Location getLastKnownLocation()
    {
        if(!mLocationClient.isConnected()) {
            mLocationClient.connect();
            return mLastKnownLocation;
        }
        mLastKnownLocation = mLocationClient.getLastLocation();
        return mLastKnownLocation;
    }

    @Override
    public void onConnected(Bundle bundle) {
        Toast.makeText(MyApp.getAppContext(), "LocationClient:Connected", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }

    @Override
    public void onDisconnected() {
        Toast.makeText(MyApp.getAppContext(), "LocationClient:Disconnected", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }

    @Override
    public void onConnectionFailed(ConnectionResult connectionResult) {
        Toast.makeText(MyApp.getAppContext(), connectionResult.toString(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }
}

My Java skills ... are less developed ... any suggestions for improvement?

A valid way to do this is to use LocationClient

getLastLocation ()

, , , . :

public Location getLastLocation ()
