did you get permission from user? new os 6.0 you may need to acquire permission during runtime and please provide your logcat. — kggoh, Aug 03 '16 at 06:54
this my logcat "Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'android.content.ContentResolver android.content.Context.getContentResolver()' on a null object reference at com.test.MapsActivity.isLocationEnabled(MapsActivity.java:179)" — Rishabh, Aug 03 '16 at 06:55
doesn't seem like a permission problem yet. it seems like it complaint about your context. Did you pass in the right context? where you call this function? in activity or fragment? — kggoh, Aug 03 '16 at 06:59
this is how i called in my activity. Utils.isLocationEnabled(this); result successful, shown in screenshot below. — kggoh, Aug 03 '16 at 07:14

I tried your code, I am able to get location. Then you better check if your context is right. Permission required?
