Using DDMS to send KLM coordonates

Question

I made a small test application that uses the GPS module. To test it, I used telenet to connect to the emulator and send geo fix coordonates.

Sending geo fix 90 90 from telnet made my application react ok.

After reading a while I found about the DDMS. There seems to be a problem with sending coordinates from it to the device. No matter what option I try: Manual or KML file (the KML loads fine) the device only receives one 0.0 and 0.0 coordinates, no matter what I send it.

What am I doing wrong ?
