Asked this over on Stackoverflow as well... I have code that successfully gets location updates from multiple providers and filters them to give a current best estimate.
I added code to check for the returned Location.hasSpeed() and .hasBearing() values to do some bearing related calculations when the user is actually moving. It all works fine on a Huawei Sonic running 2.3.3, but on the Google Nexus S running 4.0.4 the GPS provider's Location always returns false for .hasSpeed() and 0 for .getSpeed(). When I register my location listener, the GPS provider returns true for .supportsSpeed() but it never returns the speed in a Location even when the accuracy is down to 30m and it is physically moving (in a car, on the dashboard for max reception, screen on). Is there some difference from 2.3.x to ICS 4.x? Do I have to implement my own speed calculation even when the provider reports support? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
