How to define GPS module in Android?
- by Osama Gamal
I'm porting android to Devkit8000 which is a BeagleBoard clone. I have a GPS module connected on /dev/ttyS0. I could successfully get NMEA output when writing "cat /dev/ttyS0" in the terminal emulator.
I want to know how to let android know that there is a GPS module on /dev/ttyS0 and it is outputting NMEA standard? To be able to use the android.location class with it!
Is there something to edit in the android's source? adding driver for example, writing a code with android-ndk or what?
