    Hi

    I am back…

    i did receive a new GPSberry card.

    i try first on a PI3, i plugged it and to configured it. GREAT !!! now it is working (see the image attach)

    OK my new GPSberry is operational.

    Now i go back to my new PI4 and unfortunatly this is the same issue , with strange characters (with minicom or with cat /dev/serial0).

    even if i try to upgrade again the Raspbian , this is the same issue

    Do you have any clues ?

    Thanks

    It may have something to do with the CPU frequency. try this

    open config.txt

    sudo nano /boot/config.txt
    add this
    core_freq=250
    reboot

    I tested on two Pi 4. This is what i did to get it working.

     

    1. burn image 2020-02-13-raspbian-buster-full.img
    2. Enable ssh and wireless
    3. ran raspi-config and disable console of serial and then enabled serial interface
    4. rebooted
    5. view serial while BerryGPS-IMU plugged in, using  cat /dev/serial0
    6. The GPS was reporting errors
    7. I disabled echo with stty -F /dev/serial0
    8. viewing serial now works
