geocoder.getFromLocationName returns only null

by

I had a similar problem and found that polling the Geocoder until i got a result worked. Here is how i did it, so far works great.

try {
    List<Address> geoResults = geocoder.getFromLocationName("<address goes here>", 1);
    while (geoResults.size()==0) {
        geoResults = geocoder.getFromLocationName("<address goes here>", 1);
    }
    if (geoResults.size()>0) {
        Address addr = geoResults.get(0);
        myLocation.setLatitude(addr.getLatitude());
        myLocation.setLongitude(addr.getLongitude());
    }
} catch (Exception e) {
    System.out.print(e.getMessage());
}
