Dynamic Location Retrieving Problem In My Weather App

Question

Hi everyone.

So I decided to do some changes on the Stormy app Ben walked us through, and add a dynamic location instead of the hard-coded one. Everything's fine until user goes to Settings, Enables Location and returns to the app. When he/she returns, they should get their locations updated, right? At least that's what I hoped. Waiting, and refreshing several times does not solve the problem. User has to close and reopen the app to get Location info while they should be getting the Location info once they enable Location. I'm providing the code below. Note that everything other than this works fine. Check the if-else statement of getForecast() method, where app checks for the network, proceeds if network is available, pops a dialog if not, and when you go to Settings and enable mobile data through that dialog, app gets the Forecast info, without needing to close-reopen app. In onRefresh() method I tried to do the same if-else statement method, followed by a gpsTracker.showSettingsAlert(); call so that user can enable Location and refresh the app to get data. Dialog pops up, user goes to Settings and enables Location, comes back to the app but app does not proceed and stays the same. I know it's a bit long, but I would really appreciate a help. Thanks in advance. (Also I tried my best to use the Code View function correctly, but wouldn't mind an edit :))
