Registration timer expired, but client is still registering! - Google geocoding error - iphone

Question

I am trying to use these two lines to get lat/long info when given an address input.
NSString *urlString = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q=%#&output=csv", theAddress];
NSString *locationString = [[[NSString alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:urlString]] autorelease];
It is weird that sometimes I get the lat, long info as quick as in 5 seconds and in other cases the app is stuck for about 5 mins and then it logs an error stating "Registration timer expired, but client is still registering!"
It also gives the location info (ie result string wth lat/long info) as null.
I tried it a number of times and couldn't figure out what makes it work and what doesn't.
Has anybody encountered the same issue before or any advice on this pls.
Thanks

Answer 1

try below code its working fine with me.
CLLocationCoordinate2D coord=[self gettingLatandLonFromAddress:address];
-(CLLocationCoordinate2D ) gettingLatandLonFromAddress:(NSString *)address
{
CLLocationCoordinate2D currentLoc;
NSString *urlString=[NSString stringWithFormat:#"http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q=%#&output=csv",[address stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
NSString *locationString=[NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:urlString] encoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding error:nil];
NSArray *listItems = [locationString componentsSeparatedByString:#","];
double latitude=0.0;
double longitude=0.0;
if([listItems count] >=4 && [ [listItems objectAtIndex:0] isEqualToString:#"200"]){
latitude = [[listItems objectAtIndex:2] doubleValue];
longitude = [[listItems objectAtIndex:3] doubleValue];
}
else{
NSLog(#"Error");
}
currentLoc.latitude=latitude;
currentLoc.longitude=longitude;
return currentLoc;
}
