Answer 1

Here you go

Geocoder gcd = new Geocoder(context, Locale.getDefault()); List<Address> addresses = gcd.getFromLocation(lat, lng, 1);      if (addresses.size() > 0)      {          String countryName=addresses.get(0).getCountryName();      } 

Answer 2

Use Below Function for that.

public void getAddress(double lat, double lng) {     Geocoder geocoder = new Geocoder(HomeActivity.mContext, Locale.getDefault());     try {         List<Address> addresses = geocoder.getFromLocation(lat, lng, 1);         Address obj = addresses.get(0);         String add = obj.getAddressLine(0);         GUIStatics.currentAddress = obj.getSubAdminArea() + ","                 + obj.getAdminArea();         GUIStatics.latitude = obj.getLatitude();         GUIStatics.longitude = obj.getLongitude();         GUIStatics.currentCity= obj.getSubAdminArea();         GUIStatics.currentState= obj.getAdminArea();         add = add + "\n" + obj.getCountryName();         add = add + "\n" + obj.getCountryCode();         add = add + "\n" + obj.getAdminArea();         add = add + "\n" + obj.getPostalCode();         add = add + "\n" + obj.getSubAdminArea();         add = add + "\n" + obj.getLocality();         add = add + "\n" + obj.getSubThoroughfare();          Log.v("IGA", "Address" + add);         // Toast.makeText(this, "Address=>" + add,         // Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();          // TennisAppActivity.showDialog(add);     } catch (IOException e) {         // TODO Auto-generated catch block         e.printStackTrace();         Toast.makeText(this, e.getMessage(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();     } } 

Add Below Permission to your manifest

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/>
