I appreciate any help , am stuck actually. So, I am Asking how to connect a GPS device (external GPS) to a cell phone (containing the application) , in order to send informations about its location without using USB cable or bluetooth.

I have an Android watch that can be in one of the following:
1a. standalone - connected to a WiFi network directly;
1b. standalone - connected via a cellular link (if SIM present, unlocked, etc.);
2. bluetooth connected to a phone and using the phone's connection (WiFi/cellular);
It can also be that both the watch and the phone have a SIM (though this is less important).
On the watch I run a standalone app (no counterpart app/service on the phone) and I need to find the 'end' connection type I have when tethering. Namely, using the watch only, I need to know if I am tethering via a WiFi or via a cellular connection.
Or, in other words, when tethering, I need to know if the phone (to which the watch is connected via bluetooth) sends my data further using WiFi or a cellular connection.
I did look around for a solution but what I found only allows identifying the type of connection the watch has, e.g. WiFi, cellular or bluetooth.
Is this even possible? Thanks in advance for your help!
Is there a way to take data from Matlab Mobile without an internet connection? I have my computer and phone linked through USB and would like to use the GPS in my phone to keep track of the position of my car. Ideally the data would just flow from my GPS sensors to the Matlab App and then through the USB connection and into Matlab. I guess what I'm asking is is there a way to connect my phone and computer without using internet?
They just have to be in the same network. If you are on the go just use your phone as a wifi hotspot and connect to your computer. No internet required.
How does the auto wifi connect algorithm work on the Android phone? For ex: when I go home, it auto-connects to my home network. When I step into Starbucks, it automatically connects to the Starbucks network. I assume there is a "background service" running on the phone at all times. Is this true?
If so, does this service constantly check the GPS location and then try to simply connect to the local network that was last inside that GPS coordinate?
Or, does the service automatically try to find any local network and simply connect to the first one that it is able to connect to?
Or, does it automatically connect to the most frequently connected network? Does auto wifi take into account the # of times it has connected to each network?
Thank you.
I Need to find the location of devices which is connected with other devices over Same Wifi Network Via My App.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
I can't get GPS location when creating portable WiFi hotspot through my device. Its running on Android 2.3.7. Basically my app fetches the GPS location of the device and sends it to a server(in LAN). To simulate this condition, I created a LAN with my mobile and Laptop(acts as server). Hotspot is created through the mobile. It used to work if LAN is created by some other means, connectifiy or Router connection. Except a hotspot. I want to know if hotspot clashes with the GPS receiver. I seriously doubt it though.
If you are using LocationClient then in that case location is fetched using GPS,Wifi or Cell ID..Now if you make your device as a Wifi Hotspot then it might happen that your device will look to fetch location using GPS. And if you happen to be indoors then there is a remote possibility of getting location.Hope this answers your question
