Cannot Resolve Symbol: FusedLocationProviderClient. Google play services version used 11.0.1

> Cannot Resolve Symbol: FusedLocationProviderClient.

Google play services version used 11.0.1.

code : while declaration

private FusedLocationProviderClient mfusedLocationProviderclient;

You just need to include this in your build.gradle file:

implementation "com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:15.0.1"

or if you're not using latest gradle version:

compile "com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:15.0.1"

Note: It's recommended to use Google Play services version 15.0.1 or higher, which includes bug fixes for this class. More details here.

https://developers.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/gms/location/FusedLocationProviderClient

In your build.gradle (Module: app), you need to add the following dependency:

dependencies {
    //...
    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:11.0.0'
}

and rebuild your app so it can download the needed dependencies. The class FusedLocationProviderClient is included in this package.

Import following lines to the code after you have changed the build.gradle(Mudule:app) including implementation:

"com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:11.0.1"

import com.google.android.gms.location.FusedLocationProviderClient;
import com.google.android.gms.location.LocationServices;

This Developer Guide solved my problem

You just need to include this in your build.gradle file:

> compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:12.0.1'

Code for retrieve Location :

FusedLocationProviderClient mFusedLocationClient =  LocationServices.getFusedLocationProviderClient(this);
           
            mFusedLocationClient.getLastLocation()
                    .addOnSuccessListener(this, new OnSuccessListener<Location>() {
                        @Override
                        public void onSuccess(Location location) {
                            // Got last known location. In some rare situations this can be null.
                            
                        }
                    })
                    .addOnFailureListener(this, new OnFailureListener() {
                        @Override
                        public void onFailure(@NonNull Exception e) {
                           
                        }
                    });

In build.gradle (Module: app) add:

dependencies {
    ...
    implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:17.0.0'
   ...
}

Don't forget to sync the build.gradle (on the up right corner of the build.gradle, you will have a notification to sync the changes, click it).

In my case, I should include

com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:11.4.0  

Not just play-services-maps:11.4.0.

Add COARSE_PERMISSION in manifest.xml file.

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"/> then it automatic detects the Class and imports it.

I know it is very late, but happy to answer the question.

Use this dependencies

compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:11.0.4'

and refer this link - https://guides.codepath.com/android/Retrieving-Location-with-LocationServices-API

You just need to include this in your build.gradle file:

compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:11.0.2'

version of the services for location and maps should be the same.

compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:11.0.2'

update your google play services to 11.8.0 The code that should be added to the bulild file is as follows

compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:11.8.0'

As everyone replied you need to put into your build.gradle file the line :

implement 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:11.0.1'

(substituting implement for compile depending on your gradle version) The version just needs to be above 11.0.1, apparently.

However, when I did this I had a new error. Since I was already implementing the Play Service libraries (analytics, auth, maps, location) in a previous version (10.0.1) I had to change these all to the new version - you cant have only one of the libraries at a different version, need to have them all matching. So I found the implement lines with these libraries and changed them to:

implementation group: 'com.google.android.gms', name: 'play-services-analytics', version: '11.0.1'
implementation group: 'com.google.android.gms', name: 'play-services-auth', version: '11.0.1'
implementation group: 'com.google.android.gms', name: 'play-services-maps', version: '11.0.1'
implementation group: 'com.google.android.gms', name: 'play-services-location', version: '11.0.1'

Since I was also implementing firebase (not even sure what this is for and why it is related to Play Services), I had to the similar thing:

implementation group: 'com.google.firebase', name: 'firebase-core', version: '11.0.1'
implementation group: 'com.google.firebase', name: 'firebase-crash', version: '11.0.1'

Sync your project with gradle files and your FusedLocationProviderClient should be visible/available, starting at the import:

import com.google.android.gms.location.FusedLocationProviderClient;
