Since the iPad/iPad2 WiFi version does not have a built-in GPS chip, you cannot navigate using GPS. To solve this problem, you must purchase a Bluetooth GPS module and jailbreak the iPad’s Bluetooth to connect to the Bluetooth GPS module. Here, we will use the LD-3W Bluetooth GPS module with the iPad2 32G WiFi version for this modification.
Installation steps:
1. First, jailbreak the iPad/iPad2.
2. Install Mobile Substrate in Cydia. Open Cydia, click the Search button in the lower right corner, and enter Mobile Substrate. If there is a green check mark next to Mobile Substrate, it means it is already installed. Exit Cydia.
3. Search for roqyBT in Cydia and install it. Run the roqyBT software that you just installed on the iPad.
Usage steps:
1. Turn on the power of the Bluetooth GPS module;
2. Run roqyBT, which will automatically start searching for the Bluetooth GPS module (if it doesn’t start, click Bluetooth Stack, turn on the switch, and tap ‘Tap to rescan’ to search). Once found (usually a name in English, which depends on your Bluetooth GPS module brand), click the found name to establish a connection. roqyBT will switch to display coordinates and other data. Once the coordinate information is obtained, press the Home button to exit roqyBT (rest assured, it runs in the background).
3. Open the navigation software (here we are using the iPad version of KaLiDe 6.6), and after a while, you will see the GPS connection.
Note: This operation must be performed with the iPad jailbroken.
