I can confirm that with external bluetooth GPS it works fine. I have deployed 
it on numerous devices. From the nature of your problem I wouldn't think that 
having an internal GPS would be different.
Did you test enabling/disabling the virtual port from the gps applet in the 
control panel?

Subject: Re: [Gvsig_english] tested internal gps on wm 6.5

Me again,

anybody who has ever used GPS on a device with J9 ?

There seems to be a problem with the gps and I don't know why it appears with 
J9 and not with phoneME.

Here is a nmea console output after about ONE MINUTE with J9:
$GGPGGA,K*4E
$GPPVTG,,254,*,,,,,,1E
$PGGA,,,,,,*09,068,41,0,,08,C,,V,,,,*66,,,,,SV,2,1GPGGA,,N,,60,104E
It seems to be cut somewhere, doesn't it?

So, most of the data does not arrive (as I said, that's the data of one minute) 
- and the finally arrived data seems to be maltreated somewhere :)


As comparison the output with phoneme:
$GPGSV,3,1,09,08,04,082,,09,42,279,22,12,12,217,,15,74,244,21*75
$GPGSV,3,2,09,17,32,104,36,22,09,326,,26,49,144,38,27,62,289,22*79
$GPGSV,3,3,09,28,35,052,25*4C
However, even with PhoneME, I cannot use GPS, as the system or the program seem 
to crash after a while. It makes strange sounds (bing, bing, bing...very fast) 
- don't know, if that is a normal behavior?


It might be a problem of the GPS receiver, of course...but I don't think so, as 
logging with GpsGate for example shows a simple nmea data file....
$GPGGA,134220.0,4933.262310,N,00841.134284,E,1,04,3.2,176.5,M,,,,*05
$GPRMC,134220.0,A,4933.262310,N,00841.134284,E,1.8,122.1,070411,,,A*6E
$GPGSA,A,2,05,07,08,10,,,,,,,,,3.3,3.2,1.0*38
$GPVTG,122.1,T,,M,1.8,N,3.3,K*69
$GPGSV,2,1,08,02,16,225,,05,62,278,34,07,58,060,36,08,79,164,37*71
$GPGSV,2,2,08,10,52,165,36,13,20,087,36,26,30,279,18,28,20,153,*77

Perhaps, anybody got an idea or same problems, either with J9 or PhoneME? Would 
be great if we can fix that. Without GPS, it is not really interesting using 
gvSIG Mobile I think :(


Regards,

Marcel

Hello,

I've tested the GPS on the smartphone and have even got the device until monday.

Well, as I said, it is an Samsung OMNIA GT-B7610.

I've tested both, phoneme and J9:

phoneme
-> gps works, but phoneme crashes very often...mostly as soon as I open a 
layer...I could test editing (with gps) a few seconds, but not very long as 
well. the gps activity isn't shown often, mostly it crashes or even does not 
respond anymore.
without gps (e.g. with my own nmea-file) everything is working...

J9
-> gps seems to search/connect (no error) - but only the "0 satellites"-symbol 
appears...i don't see any data...
without gps no problems as well...

tested both with the original gvsig version and with my changed one, both seems 
to have the same problems...seem to...

anybody got similar problems with J9?


btw, the color errors (e.g. no name in ToC, white/black switched...) depend on 
the visual themes, as Juan proposed...


Regards,

Marcel
