Description
Now supports Android 4.0 and beyond.

TetherGPS Lite allows you to share the GPS on one WiFi enabled Android device with another WiFi enabled Android Device.

TetherGPS can be launched by using the included 1x1 widgets, through intent broadcasts from other apps, or by using the launch buttons in the TetherGPS configuration app.

Example use - Connect your Nook Color and your HTC Evo to the same network, or tether the Nook Color to the HTC Evo with android-wifi-tether. Run TGPS Server on the HTC Evo and TGPS Client on the Nook color. The Nook Color will receive GPS data from the HTC Evo. Applications on the Nook Color such as Google Maps and Google Navigation will then work using the shared GPS data.

-Mock locations on the client device must be enabled. Settings>Applications>Development>Allow mock locations.
-GPS location must be enabled on both devices.
-Use the TGPS Client and TGPS Server widgets to enable the services.

TetherGPS Lite includes the full client and a lite version of the server which will run for 5 minutes at a time. After the time limit is hit the server can simply be restarted via the widget.

If the widgets are not showing up in your widget list, check to make sure the application is installed on the device and not on the SD card.

If your device does not include a way to enable GPS navigation, download one of the freely available GPS toggle widgets from the Android Market.

TetherGPS uses the following intent listeners for activation by Tasker and other apps:
com.comptonsoft.TGPS.START_SERVER
com.comptonsoft.TGPS.STOP_SERVER
com.comptonsoft.TGPS.START_CLIENT
com.comptonsoft.TGPS.STOP_CLIENT

If TetherGPS does not show up in the market on your Nook or other tablet device, you can download the lite version with a fully featured client from our website, http://www.comptonsoft.com

Comments on TetherGPS Lite for Android

★★★★★ Works great for sharing from my incredible to nook color. Works along with built-in wifi tethering in CM7 seemlessly.
★★★★★ Crashes but functions. Run server on phone. And client on tab. Out of the box it will force close a few times. But works. But not in my app which does not allow mock locations.
★★★★★ Really good app! I've been looking all over for a bluetooth GPS reciever to use with my Viewsonic gTablet. This app allows me to use my EVO 4g as a GPS server and it works flawlessly! I put the paid version on the phone and the lite version on the tablet. Excellent work.
★★★★★ Perfect match Galaxy S and G-Tablet - perfect for sharing GPS with G-Tablet. Only quirk on Android 4 is that it won't find proper Broadcast Address for server side - need to enter G-Tab's IP address in manually to get it to work. Works fine using gingerbread phone as server though.
★★☆☆☆ Nook Color CM7 w FoxFi: No Worky While the networked version seems to work (too short of server time to troubleshoot), while tethered to tablet from a Droid 2, it does not work. The Droid server starts with foxfi running and the client is running on tablet but they do not connect before time runs out. Nice idea though.
★★☆☆☆ Doesn't work on Galaxy Nexus 4.0.3 Starting server on GNex produces error: "Unfortunately, TetherGPS Lite has stopped".
★★☆☆☆ Force close No matter how hard you try it fc every time on ice device.
★★☆☆☆ Where are the directions? No directions, can't make it work. Must be first geeks
