Thanks Gerhard, I've seen that before I think. I found a couple of others too, all of which I will try.

BlueNMEA -sends location data over Bluetooth (RFCOMM) or TCP in the NMEA format. Source:
BlueNMEA
Display shows the following:
Provider is selected
Network is not selected
Bluetooth client status: not available
Bluetooth server status: listening
TCP status: listening on port 4352
This is helpful, now what do I do with it?

NMEA Relay - Use your Android device as a portable GPS thanks to NRelay.As soon as NRelay is started, GPS data received by your device are sent through local
network (Wi-Fi, Ethernet) to an other machine.
This machine can use these data using NMEA protocol. Source Code:
http://github.com/alexandreroman/nrelay This app wants the following:
Server Address - Nmea sentences are sent to this host.
Server Port - TCP Port on the server host.
So do I set up a TCP Connection in Opencpn somehow? What values?

GPS over BT - GPS over BlueTooth allows you to connect your mobile phone as an external GPS receiver that can transmit information about satellites and the
current location, using Bluetooth, to computer. Uses
Nmea 0183 --Can't seem to get it to connect, it has good choices for settings, but I have not learned how to get it connected yet. Have tried re-pairing, etc. May try reboot of both computer and cell, not connecting.
==Nmea Moniters
GPS Nmea Monitor Displays raw NMEA data coming from the GPS driver on your device. Can be used to check the GPS on your phone.
Option to
record NMEA data to the SD card. Please do not give bad ratings if the app does not display any NMEA, The NMEA API does not
work on some phones. -- This works on Samsung S4, can see nmea data stream from GPS.

GPS NMEA Tool -Small tool to view NMEA data returned by the built-in gps receiver. Works fine for monitering.
