GF07 MINI GPS

please,
What port and protocol should I use for the Tracker GF07 MINI GPS?

thanks

• Set the IP and one of the ports of your Traccar server in the device (if you can, I couldn't find a way to do this in the online documentation of the GF07).
• then follow these steps: https://www.traccar.org/identify-protocol/

By the way, this device is NOT a GPS tracker despite what's written on it. It will send a location within 25 square kilometers (not meters). The least dishonest seller I found claims an accuracy of 250 square meters (which is not precise at all by any means) but that may only happen in high density areas (large cities) where there are a lot of GSM antennas.

Its a gps tracker alright. Normally locked but can be reprogrammed

@Anders Yuran

Could you give some insight into the reprogramming method?
Are we talking flashing? or are you just flipping some settings once connected via arduino/rpi/baite serial sorta thing?

I bought one thinking I could get it into traccar via gps :/
If you could point me in the right direction that would be very much appreciated.

Tengo dos equipos iguales, no los puedo configurar, alguien pudo ?

use command

SERVER,0,demo.traccar.org,5023,0#

hi. I was playing with a new GF-07 gps (without gps capability and without SD slot) and found the right command to set the server:

server,demo.traccar.org,5023,0#

I was able to reach the server (I´m using my own server), also I was playing with some ports without sucess (5013, 5001, 2023, 5055), I mean is not right decoded to be shown in app, I will continue playing and back with results.

I made tests with several protocols, few of them I got some partial results:

gt06 show the device online and battery life, not location:

I reviewd almost all protocol_decoders but no one match for this device, any clue what else can I do?
thanks

Is your device moving or static?
Some devices do not report Lat / Long when not moving.

Hi trebling, is moving.

It looks like it's not even giving the correct date & time most of the time: "time: 1980-01-05 18:00:00"
Maybe the device keeps resetting itself. Too low battery voltage? Failed electronics? Antenna not correctly connected? ...
At this point you have to try every single protocol and/or open the device and look how it's built, what chips are installed, ...
There are so many fake GF-07 (some don't even have a single component on the PCB!) it's hard to give a proper advice.
Where did you buy it? Got a link?

hi Treblig, this is a very cheap device:

https://es.aliexpress.com/item/1005008755341163.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.11.4286194denXME4&gatewayAdapt=glo2esp

but works fine in ZERO-GPS (original platform) (position can be followed)

anyway, I will continue making some tests.
