I mean apps ask user to "USE Location" pop up with YES, NO option. If yes then GPS starts.

You only can call a intent to show the optionsdialog
But the USER need to enable GPS in the device to let your app use the gps.
Once he did you can use the GPS.

I don´t think you can do it by code only.

You are probably seeing the new permission dialog. It is not possible to programmatically enable the location services.
