1. 激活手机的WIFI热点。2. 将你的电子书阅读器连接到手机的WIFI。3. 打开两个应用程序：打开Kickweb服务器，然后将其置于后台运行（使用手机的“方块”键），再打开BlueNMEA。4. 将手机放在可以接收GPS信号的地方（我可以把手机放在口袋里，但这可能并不适用于所有手机）。5. 打开电子书的网页浏览器，然后导航到手机的IP地址，通常是http://192.168.43.1:8080（你也可以从你的电脑上测试）。如果上述地址无效，要查找手机的IP地址，请查找连接到手机WIFI的任何设备的“网关”地址，那就是手机的IP地址。后面必须加上“:8080”才能使用Kickweb服务器。6. 尽情享受！如果过一段时间后停止运行，你需要重新启动这两个应用程序（步骤3）。[安卓系统具有非常积极的优化机制，会停止它认为无用的应用程序。] Lorenzo。更多信息请参考此处

Hacker News用户正在讨论一个将Kindle用作高对比度GPS设备的项目。这个想法因其潜在的电池续航能力和可读性而受到好评。一位评论者建议使用微控制器、GPS模块和电子墨水显示屏构建自定义解决方案。另一位用户建议将Beeline产品作为小型显示器的替代方案。有人担心Kindle安装作为GPS时易碎。最初的项目是基于David Schneider在一个关于构建易读自行车电脑的IEEE Spectrum文章中详细介绍的更高级的设置。该主题展示了人们对重新利用现有技术和为导航创建自定义解决方案的兴趣。

1. Activate the WIFI hotspot on your phone.

2. Connect your ebook reader to the phone's wifi.

3. Open the two apps: open Kickweb server, then send it in the background (with the "square" key of the phone), open BlueNMEA.

4. Put your phone where it will receive a GPS signal (I can keep my phone in my pocket, but that might not work for all phones).

5. Open your ebook's web browser and navigate to the phone's IP address, typically

http://192.168.43.1:8080

(You can also test it from your computer). If the above address doesn't work, to find the phone's IP, look for the "gateway" address of any device connected to your phone's wifi, that's the phone's IP address. It must be followed by ":8080" to use Kickweb server.

6. Enjoy!

If it stops after a while, you need to re-launch the two apps (step 3 above). [Android has a very aggressive optimization and stops the apps that it believes are not doing anything useful.]
