You do know that GPS is based on satellites that revolves around the earth in space ?
Once inside, your GPS on ANY device will have a hard time getting a clear sky view, let alone synchronise with enough satellites to get a position. You might have some luck if you are near a window, but anyway, since it will have a hard time getting a fix, it will try and try and try and your battery consumption will go up and up and up. Good luck. Yahel On 6 déc, 08:51, Terry <[email protected]> wrote: > I have an app which uses the GPS, and e.g. requests an update only > every 10 minutes.
