I am trying to use the Adafruit FONA 3G module for a GPS tracking project and it is just simply not getting gps coordinates. I have tried multiple different configurations and testing locations but nothing seems to work. I am using an active antenna with a gain of 32dB and have soldered the bias. I am getting bunch of satellites but not even signal strength to acquire a fix. I have attached screenshots from my testing in the post and also below is the link to the antenna that I am using.

Re: Adafruit FONA 3G not getting GPS coordinates
Just to be sure, you're using one of these modules?

And you're attaching the GPS antenna to the GPS connector (not the cellular connector)?
