4.1.8. Reference firmware

The public version firmware turns off GPS function by default, you can modify the ro.factory.hasGPS in /system/build.prop to close or open GPS .Then, please restart your board after completing the modification.

4.1.9. Notice

The GPS function may occupy UART3. If you need to use UART3 for other purposes, disable the GPS first.
