title: how to get current location as geocode and send as SMS Android?
body: <p>I've got my SMS app working and just want to send a location. Meaning once I type the message and input the phone number...I click the button and with that the location also is sent as a geocode (I want where the recipient can open the link on their phone through maps)...</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas how to do that? Ps. I know how to get location and put it in a textview but I am not looking for that...Just as I click the button to send the SMS and the location is taken from the location manager and sent along with the message?</p>
