BTstack GPS: Accuracy not permitting to show position.


Posted on Nov 6, 2014 by Quick Bear

iPad2,1-5.1.1: 96cb10171329e5e2ab456d8099a5f0bbd4b92925

Hello I have a problem; it connects flawlessly but I need to use the jeppesen fd app which would not show my position unless the accuracy is 10 m or less it always shows 20m of accuracy, but the source is saying 5 meters. For me its important that the position is shown whether is accurate or not, is there a way to make the btstack gps send the position to the other apps with 10m of accuracy instead of 20 always? Thank you very much

There are no settings for this currently, while BTstack did send fake accuracy before. I don't know what I do with BTstack GPS for iOS 8. If I just update it, I'll consider adding another option for "fake 1m accuracy", but no promise yet.

what's "jeppesen fd app" btw?

hi, im using ios 5.1.1... i was wondering if theres any config file in which it could be changed some value for the accuracy, as the position receiving program (jeppesen fd, an aviation app used for showing air navigation charts etc)wont show my position unless its 10m or less of accuracy. Im urgently needing this, i wish you could help me with this... thanks

Hello i installed the 1.5.1 and it works, it sends with 1 meter of accuracy, but this version didnt send the course information... So the app without the course wont display the arrow with the position... Can you include this 1 meter of accuracy in the next version? Or is it possible to modify any config file to do this? Thanks

latest version has a "fake 1m accuracy" toggle in settings.
