      What output you are getting? Just some zeros?

        @salmanfaris No any output. Arduino not wating for GPS data.Not runing this loop while (gps.available( gps_port ))

          does it return one/true when you are testing only with gps and gps.available( gps_port )?

            @salmanfaris gps.available( gps_port ) Is not return a True case.

              @salmanfaris for running while(gps.avaible()); MCU need to wait some time. but after adding VirtualWire library it's not waiting for Serial.available()

                @rafitc99 said in GPS + RF433 Not working together.:

                ps.available( gps_port ) Is not return a True case.

                Then how is the while loop will work? It should return!

                  did you try manual waiting? Instead of delay, you can use mills, so the background works will keep run.

                    Let me try.

                      Not working. Same problem.

                        @salmanfaris It's worked. 😇 Thank you @salmanfaris for your replies.

                        Actually a small change in void loop is the solution

                        void loop(){
                            // Set buffer to size of expected message
                            uint8_t buf[1];
                            uint8_t buflen = sizeof(buf);
                            // Check if received packet is correct size
                          if (vw_get_message(message, &messageLength)) // non-blocking
                          {
                            Serial.print("Potentiometer: ");
                              //Serial.print(message[i]);
                              received_number = message[i];
                            Serial.println(received_number);
                        
                            }
                            
                              if(received_number == 1){
                                getGpsData();  
                              }
                        }
                        

                        Used two simple if instead of Nested IF. idk what is the problem of first code. Also if I add any delay() inside void getGpsData() function, showing same problem.

                          @rafitc99 I changed the buffer and that solved the problem. Thanks a lot for coming to my rescue.

                          @salmanfaris I did change the buffer size and everything is working perfectly. Thanks coming to my rescue.

                          I am using the hardware serial (pin 0 and 1 on Arduino Uno)

                          As @rafitc99 mentioned, you need to expand the Serila buffer, in the hardware serial also the Arduino board package implements a 64-byte ring buffer for send and receive on the hardware serial messages. So you need to change that to 256 as per your message length.

                          @rafitc99 The thing is that I am not using the SoftwareSerial library in receiving the message from the first microcontroller. I am using the hardware serial (pin 0 and 1 on Arduino Uno)
