cacheberry problems with bluetooth GPS I have an 8320, with a freedom Bluetooth GPS. I have no problems with any GPS software except for cacheberry. It does not seem to recognize the bluetooth device. Programs that I have tried, that do work with the freedom GPSr, include BB maps Google Maps BB tracker Blackstar GPS tracker Amaze Navfun Mobile Gmaps. I have permissions set to Allow All. Cacheberry menus do not populate any options that include GPS location. I have been unable to ask for help on the cacheberry forums, as they have not sent me an activation email. Kind of wishing I hadn't paid for it until I was sure that the GPS feature would work on my phone. Has anyone else had problems with bluetooth gps using cacheberry? Any ideas what I can try, aside from hacking into the engineering menu? (I don't think that would help anyway, since all the other software has no problems with the GPS puck) |
Update. I had the wrong version installed. If you intend to use a bluetooth GPSr, you must install the version intended for BBs with built in GPS. |
Still not getting any GPS fix. I have GPS related options, and the small satellite icon in the lower left, I can wait for ever and get no fix. Tried two different pucks. Blackstar, as well as other GPS programs are getting a fix within seconds. |
I went back to 2.0, it worked. I then went to 2.1.1, and it worked. I looked at the GPS options, and noticed that they were set to INTERNAL !! I changed it to Bluetooth, and lost the gps function. Went back to Internal, and it worked again. I am now running 2.1.7, with GPS still set to INTERNAL, and it is working . |
