nRF91 DK GPS bug?

[BodyBeacon]

Hi,

I just connected an nRF91 dk to nRF Cloud, which worked fine. However, for some reason the GPS says I am in Trondheim, while I am clearly somewhere else in the world.

All the best,

Christoffer

Hi,

 

The modem FW does not have support for GPS operation at the moment, this is to be released March 31st. While we wait, the default example transmits a 'dummy location' so that you are able to see at least something in nRF Cloud.

 

Best regards,

Andreas

Thank you. This will be fixed via firmware update? what is the size of the update?

That's what they claim.  The most recent firmware is about 4 megs in size.  So I would estimate around that size moving forward. 

I think I saw they pushed back dates for releases so it might not be March 31, but hopefully soon.
