Tarik, I had the same issue too and I finished my graduation project without really solving it .. I had to read the NMEA through a Serial Port shared library (using NDK) and parse NMEA manually instead of integrating libgps with android..
Lately, I found this resource http://d.hatena.ne.jp/yamanetoshi/20100722/1279774279 Someone posted it to one of Android-related mailing lists. It isn't in English but you can use Google Translator! I didn't have time to test it. If you get any progress with that I'd be glad if you shared it :) Regards, Osama Gamal On Wed, Aug 11, 2010 at 9:37 AM, tarikk <[email protected]> wrote: > I've got a GPS device running on an OMAP board through UART serial > port.
