nRF5 SDK is not maintained anymore
More Info: Consider nRF Connect SDK for new designs

Can we get GPS coordinate without inserting SIM card?

Hi All,

I'm using nRF9160dk (v1.1.0) and install nRF connect for desktop and trying get GPS coordinates. I wanted to know is it possible to get GPS data without inserting SIM card? If yes How? & what are step need to follow?

Thank in Advance.

  • Hi Support,

    i did some changes(add some folder ) in gps sample program for nRF9160DK(v1.1.0) and using  nRF SDK connect , toolchain 1.7.1, and getting error (error: Aborting due to Kconfig warnings) while building, that are below:-

  • Hi,

    Can you create a new ticket here on Devzone with the new question and all relevant info. I believe the original questions has been answered in this ticket. 

    Regards,
