Hi,

 

Is the GPS running at this time? if yes, can you please stop it (not close it, just stop the gps), and re-start it afterwards?

 

Kind regards,

Håkon

See the gps.h::gps_stop() and gps.h::gps_start() functions if using the nrf9160_gps driver.

If using the gnss api directly, please see the nrfxlib gnss documentation: https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/1.6.1/nrfxlib/nrf_modem/doc/gnss_interface.html#starting-gnss

 

Kind regards,

Håkon

Hi  Hakon,

I had figure out one more thing that if I start GPS on AWS event case AWS_IOT_EVT_READY:
SUPL session created successfully(even no need to stop and start again) every time but if I start GPS LTE connected event k_sem_give(&lte_connected);
Then all of these problem are raised.

You should also not start a GPS session before the LTE Link is idle.

It seems that you are creating two TCP (TLS) connections simultaneously, which can generate a lot of traffic on-air. If that is the case, it makes sense that you are able to get a better connection if you wait until your cloud is up and running before starting the AGPS session.

 

Kind regards,
