Adding location to the App

So I tried to make the app get the location of the device using the Google APi. I checked the docs and checked the TeamTreeHouse tutorial, but couldn't do it for some reason :( Idk why!

This is my android manifest:

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<manifest package="com.example.ihsan.stormy" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"/>



<application

    android:allowBackup="true"
    android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:supportsRtl="true"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
    <meta-data
        android:name="com.google.android.geo.API_KEY"
        android:value="AIzaSyCryKKrgq0hyEQQvFyUHVLSIY1rvH0Pw_w" />

    <activity android:name=".MainActivity"
        android:screenOrientation="portrait">
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/>

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"/>
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>
</application>

</manifest>

And this is my main activity
