GPS position

Hello friends,

How could I get a 9300 8520 device GPS position.

Thanks in advance

Not sure about the 9300 but the 8520 doesn't have a chip CPS, you can not use the GPS - but you can use the cell tower.  Here are some links to help.

  • Get a current GPS position in Simulator

    Hi experts,

    I am quite new to Java of BB application development.

    The current application I have devlop requires to know the current GPS position. Normally, how developers could fix this situation? Are there classes/methods, directly available for it?

    Please help with solutions.

    Best regards,

    Yes, you can get the current Position. Example: Latitude, Longitude, Altitude etc...

    Check this URL, it had Development Guide for GPS.

    http://NA.BlackBerry.com/eng/deliverables/1125/GPS%20and%20BlackBerry%20Maps%20Development%20Guide.p...

    You can use the Simulator to test the GPS.

    Use simulate-> GPS on Simualator.

  • Time GPS, Position, Velocity.vi - error-1073807360 reading was held at node (arg 1) .vi property VISA set up a Serial Port (Instr)

    We receive information such as the Latitude and Longitude of a receiver Garmin GPS18xLVC via a serial port on our PC using LabView 7.1.  Successfully, I connected the GPS on the serial port and tested with HyperTerminal.  I tried reading GPS time, Position, Velocity.vi several times and still receive the following error message: error 1073807360 has occurred to the property node (arg 1) visa configure a Serial Port (Instr) .vi.  I think it has something to with the configuration of the VISA series under vi.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    I understood the question, that I had with the time reading the GPS, the Position, the Velocity.vi.  The vi. "do not open" port com automatically and so I had to modify the NMEA GPS Subvi reading to first open the port (VISA open command) and then continue with other operations.  Once I did this it started to work very well.  I don't understand why this feature has been left out because it won't work without it.  I tested the code with a receiver Garmin 18xlvc and it seems to work fine.

  • Get the GPS Position in a specific interval

    Hi BB-Devs,

    I m developing a BB10 application where I use the GPS location Services.

    I need to update my current position in a specific interval.

    First of all:

    In the corrugation Simulator, everything works fine. My position will be refreshed every x seconds.

    Yesterday, I deployed my application with debugging token to my Z10.

    It seems the app works.     BUT:

    When I change my position, the new position will not be updated as in the Simulator :-(

    In my console log, I see that my function is called every x seconds.

    Here is a code snippet of the function that is called in the intervall:

    function setAktPosition() {
        //First test to see that the browser supports the Geolocation API
           if (navigator.geolocation !== null)
           {
              var options;
              navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(setAktPositionSuccess, setAktPositionError, options);
           }
           else {
              alert("HTML5 geolocation is not supported.");
           }
    }
    
    function setAktPositionError(error)
    {
       alert("An unexpected error occurred [" + error.code + "]: " + error.message);
    }
    
    function setAktPositionSuccess(position)
    {
       //Extract information about the users current position:
       var time = position.timestamp;
       var coordinates = position.coords;
    
       //Retrieve geographic information about the GPS fix:
       ap.valueLat = coordinates.latitude;
       ap.valueLon = coordinates.longitude;
       ap.valueAlt = coordinates.altitude;
       ap.valueSpeed = coordinates.speed;
       //var acc = coordinates.accuracy;
       //var altAcc = coordinates.altitudeAccuracy;
       //var head = coordinates.heading;
       refreshMap();
    }
    

    That's how I got to call this function in a specific interval:

    aktiv = window.setInterval("setAktPosition()", intervallInSec);
    

    However - the works of the intervall-function-call - but my application still get the top position - no update of position when changing my situation :-(

    Corsica, I did this in my config.xml file:

    
       access_location_services
    
    

    My application has requested when starting fist approvals of the location. I also checked this in the settings of the device of my Z10.

    Are there problems with the GPS location services in the webworks for BB10?

    Or is it not possible to achieve?

    I will be happy if anyone has any advice for me :-)

    Thank you very much!

    Lars.

    I've solved the problem and the code works without error,

    But when I call

    bool positionUpdatedConnected = connect(src,
                SIGNAL(positionUpdated(const QGeoPositionInfo &)), this,
                SLOT(positionUpdated(const QGeoPositionInfo &)));
    

    I had

    positionUpdatedConnected  = false
    

    Can someone help me why this result?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    As Zmey pointed out in your other post, you must modify the declaration of your location of positionUpdated() in your GPs.h file. You must rework so that you do not need to specify the QtMobilitySubset namespace (as in your cpp file):

    private Q_SLOTS:
        // This slot is invoked whenever new location information are retrieved
        void positionUpdated(const QGeoPositionInfo &pos);
    

    To do this, put a using statement in your GPs.h file, which unfortunately is not always desirable. You could put

    using namespace QtMobilitySubset;
    

    But if you're worried about having "using" in your header file, you can limit the scope of what you need if you put

    using ::QtMobilitySubset::QGeoPositionInfo;
    

    These changes are necessary due to the nature of the connect() method. In my view, than it does not much more than the chain by comparing the quantities in SIGNAL() and SLOT() macros. The method parameters must match each other and how the methods are declared in their respective headers.

  • How to get the current GPS position of the BlackBerry emulator?

    Hello! all, I am writing a simple program to get the current coordinates of GPS (Latitude, Longitude) in BlackBerry.

    Criteria criteria=new Criteria();
            criteria.setHorizontalAccuracy(500);
            criteria.setVerticalAccuracy(500);
            LocationProvider locationProvider=LocationProvider.getInstance(criteria);
            Location location=locationProvider.getLocation(60);
            QualifiedCoordinates coordinates=location.getQualifiedCoordinates();
            System.out.println("Latitude : "+coordinates.getLatitude()+" Longitude : "+coordinates.getLongitude());
    

    But, I couldn't get the latitude and longitude. It returns 0 (zero) for the two coords.

    PLS, suggest me the solution.

    The 9000 Simulator has GPS simulation. In the "Simulation" of the Simulator menu, select "GPS". There is an already defined test site, you will need to select this place.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones GPS - position On / Off

    My husband gave me a curve for Christmas - what a wonderful surprise!  I found this site tonight and have been check / update my options, but I have a question about the GPS option.  What is the advantage (or not) to transform my GPS location WE verses uses don't not the setting.  Is it a good thing?

    Thank you!

    Basically light location allows your GPS search of satellites in BB Maps or Google Maps or any other GPS program. If you enable location off, you're basically turn off your GPS capabiilties. Personally I have to take advantage of Google Maps and geotagging the photos I take.

  • Open photo of Photos in the Preview app? Need info GPS and maps!

    Hello!

    I write trip review and to see where my photo was taken (in the maps application), and what is digital gps coordinates for each image.

    Search on google - go, I got that via this pic of opening in 'Preview' app.

    But - I have all my pic in Photos app (automatically imported from my iphone to macbook pro Mac OS sierra).

    so, I can export all the photos, I need, in a specific folder and then, from there, open it in the finder and get my info, of course - but looks silly, I think.

    as I already have this pich in Photos - photo can I somehow open directly from Photos Preview app?

    or obtain the gps position open, where this picture is taken in cards programm (not this small window, which is in the Photos, but wide, Maps application) / and obtain the coordinates of the gps directly via the Photos app?

    Thanks in advance.

    Use the media browser in preview - in the open window on the left down - media = == > photos == > Photos

    or even more appropriate is to buy external editors for extension of Photos in the App store ($0.99) and you can view the pictures in preview when using the hotos

  • iOS 10 GPS bug?

    Hello world

    I've just updated a 6s, 6 and 2 x 5 to 10 iOS iPhone. Everything worked and works well, because some have problems updating, I thought I might add that. The only problem I have is with GPS and it seems to be a model. Let me explain.

    After the update, my position on the cards of Apple is far away. He difference varies from a few meters and a few kilometers. It is noticed by the other apps, google maps, Navigon and here all show the same problem. Trails and Easytrails confirm these results. Still, this happens on all 4 phones!

    In the meantime, I have tried without decommissioning, restore, reinstall w / and without mode DFU, and the error does not disappear.

    Report this problem to Apple as soon as possible, I would like to raise here as well, to see if I'm the only person with this problem.

    Any comment is appreciated.

    Kind regards

    Same problem here. It started about a month when I downloaded the beta version. As a first step, they would still load the GPS coordinate accurately, but when I ' would start route "then it just would stop, and he wouldn't follow me on the road. It has not been resolved in one of the betas for me. Now my GPS position is FAR from approximately 1/4 mile, when I pull up to my "current" position and it just says: 'GPS not available' when I try to start any route.

  • Portege Z20t - b GPS no work

    Hey can not get my post with bing maps, maps, oder mapfactor, even GPS information browser Apps can't see the position when the WIFI is turned off.

    I bought this Stand Alone GPS features.
    8.1 update win the latest updates. Still no location in APPs.

    GPS is enabled for Windows 8.1 settings, I allowed the applications to use the gps/position.
    All Toshiba service updates are installed. Even with a SIM CARD, I have no GPS.

    Only in WiFi, I get a job...

    Back so it is damaged? BTW must work tomorrow by car around the world. When his does not work I have to return it.

    Tested cards und windows and mapfatorGPS maps application here.
    none gets a difficulty when the WiFi is turned off.

    In the description of Portege Z20t-b-xxx, "Assisted GPS" is mentioned.

    Assisted GPS is part of the 3G module... so it should work using connection 3G too.

    Have you tested it?

  • Re: Problem connecting GPS AT100

    I have a Tablet AT100-100, that I just bought. I seem to have trouble connecting with GPS. I have activated the GPS according to the instructions of the manual, but still cannot connect with GPS. I tried to connect on google maps and was able to connect via wifi, but when I turn off wifi, I can not connect via GPS only. Is that what I can do to activate GPS or is it a hardware problem

    Hi toshibakias,
    personally, I own an AT200, then I am not a perfect fit for your question.

    I wonder if you confuse the GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) with GPS (Global Positioning System) here. GPRS can be used (pretty much as WiFi) on some devices to get a connection for data transfer. GPRS is not a feature of the AT100 (or AT200) but many phones.

    But if you mean a "fix" of GPS with the term "connection", then hopefully that operate you with the following steps.

    #1
    I recommend that you install the App "GPS status" for greater transparency. In this application, you can see if GPS is basically permitted and one count how many satellites is currently on view (+ reception quality). In addition, you can trigger a download of AGPS data (if a wireless Internet connection is at your fingertips) that can speed up the first fix.

    #2
    Go outside.
    GPS (for the most part) only works under a clear sky. Avoid the secondary buildings which can protect the reception of the GPS Satellites. The number of satellites for the application "GPS status" should increase now.

    #3
    Be patient.
    Get the position (= fix) may take several minutes. Especially if the GPS receiver is used for the first time or if the situation has changed considerably since the last use, a first fix may take up to 20-30 minutes. Generally, it should take about 5 minutes if GPS reception is good and maintain you an almost constant position.

    If you have the GPS 'fix' once, future GPS corrections could be faster. Also GPS position power (!) be still available at the entrance of a building (near windows, at least).

  • Original position adjustment

    Compared to the problems that people have with their GPS of TN765t devices, mine is relatively minor. Still, it's annoying.

    I had good results for the most part, but the TN765t ignores my home by about 200 yards. Depending on the direction in which I drive since, when I comes to my address, GPS or think I have exceeded 200 yards my destination and must turn around, or he thinks I'm still 200 yards away where he arrived.

    Is there a possible way to fix this?

    Thank you.

    There are 2 options to set home:

    -current place of residence,

    -Enter the location.

    I guess that 'current location' is from your GPS position, so errors contained in the address database should be irrelevant.

  • Does anyone know how to connect a Garmin GPS to the EOS 7 d? The camera does not see.

    When I plug in my Garmin GPS on my EOS 7 d and go into the GPS settings in the menu. The camera does not see all I get is "GPS not connected indication." The GPS turned on and functional. Someone at - it ideas?

    Once I had an application that you had photographed the display of a GPS device (the type that a rider could use because they observe "breadcrumbs" trail of your itinerary) on #1 chassis (they wanted to just make sure that you have a picture of the time on the GPS display.

    You then go about your day taking photos with the GPS running indepdently.

    At the end of the day, you import the images and it asks you to enter the time displayed on the first photo.  It uses the display of GPS time and calculates the offset of the time, the camera recorded in the EXIF data (just in case the clocks were not perfectly synchronized).  Then she uses the breadcrumbs on the GPS track and apply the GPS position, data for each photo from your camera roll.

    It was a bit complicated and app tried to take over your App "photo management" (which I didn't... "I wanted just the position data added to the existing images), but it worked.

    The fact is... I was able to add correction of position information to each photo and it did not require actually integrate the GPS to the camera (it was quite after the fact).

    Today, I own the module GPS Canon (MUCH more convenient), so I don't deal with that more.

  • A GPS

    Hello

    Thinking finally updated my X 10 dated to the new Z2, but who have an important (for me anyway) concern about the GPS on this device. I'll use this phone as a backup (i.e. emergency) naviation device while im walking, but the research I've done so far, it seems that the A - GPS is no good if I'm in the middle of nowhere on a mountain with no signal of telephone/internet. Even though I know that the A - GPS is much beter to give me information about the location exact fast while in the city, what is really important to me is the ability to locate me in bad weather the mountains? The Z2 it? I tried looking for this information (it is fairly accurate, I know) but could not find anything. Any help would be appreciated as I really don't want this phone, it ticks all the boxes for me, but just need help on the issue of GPS.

    Thank you in advance.

    Hello and welcome to the community! Since you are new, please make sure that you have checked our Forum.

    A - GPS is a GPS standard that can use the mobile network to find your position more quickly. It is not the mobile network. With no network coverage, it works like a standard GPS (positioning may take a little longer).

    But you must also consider the GPS app you use. If you want maps, you must use a GPS software which can save maps on the phone. It is possible to save the maps on the phone in Google Maps, but some features such as directions needs internet access.
