Hardware
Rak4631
Firmware Version
1.3.40.e87ecc2-d
Description
When set a fixed position with the command "meshtastic --setlat 50 --setlon 50" the cli confirmed the changes and at the meshtastic info there are the right coords. After a while the coords. jumped back to the gps coordinates of the current position of the node. "hasGps": is at true, should be at false.
Relevant log output
No response
hasGPS indicates that there is a hardware GPS, disabling it does not flip this boolean
You also need to disable GPS for this to work, as "meshtastic --setlat 50 --setlon 50" just adds a regular position and fixed position uses the last set position, if gps is on that position will be updated based on the GPS settings.
Thats displaed at the debug from the android software. Gps already is disabled. Thats reason i think its a bug. If i set gps at disabled and set a fixed position the gps should turn off?
yeah seems like a bug, I think this feature is mostly used to add location when a device has a gps, but it seems like it should use the fixed location and turn off the gps if the gps is disabled and fixed position is set. @thebentern seem right?
GPS won't turn off until after next reboot if it is set to false. @Bergstern can you double check these settings, then reboot the device and set a fixed position? that should not change any more.
@caveman99 i cant test it for now because i dismount the gps module. And the rak isnt at home at the moment. Sry
closing for now cause i can't reproduce. Please reopen if still a problem.
