Re: Android (Event Capture): GPS coordinates are not stored in the events

 

Hi Jose,

We have tested GPS functionality in event capture (on 4.2 and 4.4) recently
and did not manage to reproduce the problem. Have you been testing
application on real device indoors? On emulator, you need to send GPS
updates to operating system by hand (through special controls of emulator).

Could you please try to test 0.6.0 which was recently released?

Best regards,

Hi Araz,

do you have any news about this?

We can not get the GPS coordinates using these devices (don't know if they
are related with the problem or not):

- Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 (with android 4.4.2)
- Samsung Galaxy S3 (with android 4.2.2). This one is a virtual device

Many thanks
Jose
