Recently, I've taken up android development as a hobby and was looking to develop an application that can find and track a users position using Google Maps.
Once the application has a GPS lock, it can track their movements by drawing a route using an overlay class.
I've seen similar applications like Mytracks that are open source but they're too complex for me right now.
Ideally i'd love to create an application that looks like this

Here is my code below without the imports.
What I'm trying to do is create an array of geopoints. Every time the location changes a new geopoint is created. I then try to use a for loop to iterate through each geopoint and draw a path between them.
public class Tracking extends MapActivity implements LocationListener {
LocationManager locman;
LocationListener loclis;
Location Location;
private MapView map;
List<GeoPoint> geoPointsArray = new ArrayList<GeoPoint>();
private MapController controller;
String provider = LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER;
double lat;
double lon;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.map);
initMapView();
initMyLocation();
locman = (LocationManager) getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
// locman.requestLocationUpdates(provider,60000, 100,loclis);
// Location = locman.getLastKnownLocation(provider);
}
/** Find and initialize the map view. */
private void initMapView() {
map = (MapView) findViewById(R.id.map);
controller = map.getController();
map.setSatellite(false);
map.setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
}
/** Find Current Position on Map. */
private void initMyLocation() {
final MyLocationOverlay overlay = new MyLocationOverlay(this, map);
overlay.enableMyLocation();
overlay.enableCompass(); // does not work in emulator
overlay.runOnFirstFix(new R
