Remarks
Gets the last known ___location from the given provider, or null if there is no last known ___location. The returned ___location may be quite old in some circumstances, so the age of the ___location should always be checked.
This will never activate sensors to compute a new ___location, and will only ever return a cached ___location.
See also #getCurrentLocation(String, CancellationSignal, Executor, Consumer) which will always attempt to return a current ___location, but will potentially use additional power in the course of the attempt as compared to this method.
