Re: bq Aquaris E4.5: GPS doesn't work

 

Your welcome!

I placed a new tarball at the same url, that will show the green satelites on top and the red ones at the bottom.
Feel free to test it.
I have 9 visible satellites outside, and still no fix ?!?!
I hope the next OTA update will fix this.

The web page will reload itself every once a minute, feel free to tweak the refresh value in the awk file.

Kind regards,
Ed

I wrote a little script, that will convert the info of the satellites
into a web page,
which you can view on the BQ itself.
( landscape works best )

-1 download the tarball at http://www.kapitein.org/sats.tgz
-2 extract it in the homedir of phablet ( /home/phablet )
-3 run the script: /home/phablet/scripts/gps/scripts/sats2html.sh &
-4 after a minute, open the browser and point it to
file:///dev/shm/sats.html

I hope this will help someone.
I have installed and tested it: works fine, at least I have a table of
red values of satellites (I'm sitting inside, outside it's raining) :-)

I will map the command to start the script on some F-key in the
terminal-app, but not in background, because it would cause a constant
power-drain.

Btw: What is the best way in the BQ browser of page reload?
Thanks
