Thank you. It seems that some level of support for serial GPS device is already included in the AOSP code since android already provides ro.kernel.android.gps and ro.kernel.android.gps.baud. What is the meaning of these parameters? Does it means that I still have to write the HAL part of the GPS ? even that it's a standard Serial port communication?
