I am pleased to inform you that I was able to reproduce the steps outlined
below and the results are now available at

the following steps are taken, BrailleNote Touch and Nearby Explorer are
finally compatible and work relatively well. Some street name in the program
are not correct, for example DR is written Doctor for multiple streets in my
Chicago suburb.
1. Pair your external GPS receiver. Enter code 0000 on the touch if you have to
enter a code.
2. Search google play store for bluetooth gps and download the free
application, the 1st one that comes up should be fine.
3. Enable developer options on touch by going into the settings and locating
the version number and tapping the cursor routing buttons 14 times (a sighted
user would tap 7 times) Enable mock locations from the new area of your
settings screen that appears called developer options.
4. In this order, open the bluetooth gps app from the all applications screen,
allow mock locations on that screen, scroll down to the list of receivers and
pair yours. You will have an indication that it is paired.
5. Go to your recent apps (Space with 2,3,5) and close bluetooth gps.
6. Open nearby explorer. Your provider should switch within seconds from
virtual or network to gps and you don’t need network functionality as far as I
have seen. .
