how do i get nmea sentences on android when the API method does not work

I have the same problem related here on a Samsung galaxy sp开发者_StackOverflowica and i tried all suggestions but i still don't get the nmea sentences in my application. So is there a other way to get the nmea sentences ? Is someone else facing this issue with the same device ?

Thanks.

Try any of the NMEA apps available in the marketplace to see if those work. If they do, then you are likely implementing the NmeaListener incorrectly as most of them probably use that method. If you want to be sure, I know the app Field Tracer uses NmeaListener since I built that one myself.

If NmeaListener is proven to not be working on that device, you can try the app linked in this answer.

Worst case you could get a Bluetooth GPS device, as they typically send NMEA strings. $100 for something like the Garmin Glo and as a bonus you get much better accuracy.
