I am trying to replace the on board GPS antenna with an active antenna(Taoglas AP.25E).i have followed the instructions mentioned in the application note “Adding U.FL Antenna Connectors to DragonBoard 410c and Validating GPS on Android”. application note link . After soldering the mentioned components, i have taken following steps to start the ON board GPS module.
- sudo apt-get install gpsd-clients gnss-gpsd
- sudo systemctl start qdsp-start.service
Below are the system logs (when i executed the command " cat /dev/ttyGPS0")
