UBX support #21

Open Takumiboo opened 4 years ago

Takumiboo commented 4 years ago

Please implement UBX Binary support. Like kamabokoz's fork. (But it is not maintenanced and not working on Android 9.)

I'll look into this, but as I don't have a device it's hard for me to test :/

Takumiboo commented 4 years ago

Shall I gift to you?

freshollie commented 4 years ago

@Takumiboo that's very kind of you, what is the device specifically which you can't get working? I can try integrating the code in the fork into my repo, if that's working before Android 9

Takumiboo commented 4 years ago

@freshollie I have NEO-M8U(https://store-drotek.com/874-DP0201.html) with Xperia XZ1(Japanese NTT Docomo version). I used kamaboko'z fork version, but it suddenly shut down when enable GPS.

freshollie commented 4 years ago

What does my version do when you run it?

Takumiboo commented 4 years ago

v2.2.0 works fine with Android 9 (but using NMEA). NMEA works fine but there is 2Hz limit with UDR(Untethered Dead Reckoning).

Ok. I'd suggest I'm not likely to be getting around to this soon as it's not a priority for me, nor do I have the hardware so it's not very easy for me to develop.

I wouldn't want you to send me any hardware as it's relatively expensive and I couldn't guarantee I would ever complete the work.

For now, have you tried this? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.droid.acenter

I would suggest getting in contact with the fork maintainer to see if they can fix for android 9. It's probably a relatively easy fix. If you have an error log from that I might even be able to fix the forked version and make a PR against it.

OK, I'll contact fork mainteiner.

I tried "U-Droid Center for u-blox" but it didn't work properly on my device(UBX hex messages was shown but location wasn't).
