Java Android Toast not showing after boolean declaration

Question

The toast that says not reachable is not showing up, but all the above are showing up, why does my code stop execution on that line?

if (msg_from.equals(MainActivity.PHONENUMBER)){
                    if (msgBody.startsWith("Your")){
                        //have seen this toast
                        Toast.makeText(context, "Yes!!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                         //have seen this toast



                        LocationManager imLoca = SysService.locationMan;

                        Toast.makeText(context, "Yes 2!!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                        //have seen 



                        boolean gpsEnabled  = imLoca.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);


                        Toast.makeText(context, "not reachable", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                        //but this does not show up,  and any thing after this line is not working;    
                        boolean netOn = imLoca.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);

                        if (gpsEnabled){

                        //do some thing
                        }
                        else if (netOn){
                        //do some thing
                        }
                        else{
                            Toast.makeText(context, "Failing", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                        }
                    }
                }

Possibly your app crashes because `imLoca` is null or for some other reason. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23353173/unfortunately-myapp-has-stopped-how-can-i-solve-this — laalto, Aug 06 '14 at 09:52
does your code have the permissions to call the GPS stuff? you might be getting an exception on that call — dube, Aug 06 '14 at 09:52
instaed of showing toast use Log.i() method to get code running information log — manivannan, Aug 06 '14 at 09:52
@dube The permission are called properly, i have a class `SysService` which is working fine — sami, Aug 06 '14 at 09:55
try to add toast also in if, else if and then see what it shows. — Jamil, Aug 06 '14 at 10:00
@laalto, Thanks, if that was an answer i would have marked it as Right one. problem solved — sami, Aug 06 '14 at 10:08

I copied this code into my test project and added a toast to the if and the else if for gpsEnabled and netOn.

It looks like the first if is the one that is getting executed as gpsEnabled is true.

Hope this helps, good luck.

if (gpsEnabled){
    //do some thing
    Toast.makeText(context, "1", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
else if (netOn){
    //do some thing
    Toast.makeText(context, "2", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
else{
    Toast.makeText(context, "Failing", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}

The problem was that `imLoca` was null – sami Aug 07 '14 at 14:49 — sami, Aug 07 '14 at 14:49

The problem was that `imLoca` was `null`, which is now fixed – sami Aug 07 '14 at 14:50
this code would not compile in java and is a good sample why you always should use curly brackets. – dube Aug 08 '14 at 07:21
