Monav & gps mobile phone sensor not working #28

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
pls be patient with me as this is my 1st(+- few hour) day with this soft.

after tinkering with this soft i realize that, this soft cant seem to 
connect/find the gps (no lock on gps after 20 mins)

i cant find any solution
and after a quick searching tru the source code,
i cant find any line regarding its setting

when i tried the monav pc client( with no gps -.-)
it give me a warning " no gps sensor found...."

correct me if im wrong,assuming that the code for both ppc and pc are 
"superficially" the same,(cant think of a good word for that :p)
doesn't this means that monav for mobilephone/pc are coded to find gps sensor 
and it should be able to communicate with it?

or is there some setting or work around i need to do before, i can use the 
built in gps?

i cant acces setting on the gui.

p.s. running other software, the gps works.

latest monav mobile built
on SAMSUNG OMNIA LITE B7300 wm6.5 (Screen resolution 240x400 qvga)
gps chipset: unknown(i tried googling)
gps software port: 7
gps hardware port: 9

and thru "GpsPort" from "trekbuddy"
gps url: 127.0.0.1:20175

Sorry for the late reply, I was on vacation.

MoNav should be able to handle any GPS device the Windows Mobile driver 
recognizes. It uses QtMobility, which itself just uses the WM driver. So, as 
long as the GPS device is properly configured in the system settings it should 
work out of the box. If the GPS device is not advertised through the driver 
MoNav won't find it.

On the PC ( Win, Linux, Mac ) on the other hand, MoNav will currently not be 
able to use GPS devices as Qt Mobility simply not supports this at the moment. 
I hope that this will change in the next year, but I am not sure. As soon as Qt 
Mobility has support for this it should work automatically for MoNav.
