No I don´t have a Garmin GPX 10x. But are you sure, that your system GPS and your App "Bluetooth GPS Provider" are not running while testing?
I had some troubles too, in the past,  using the "internal Locus --> external GPS connection, but I got it to run. However I´m a bit more convinced from the "third party" solution with Bluetooth GPS (http://www.androidzoom.com/android_appl ... _fzpr.html).
So I use a cheap "JENTRO BT-GPS-8 - Bluetooth GPS" (Sirf III) with the free Bluetooth GPS app and and the very best  :!: map app  (Locus) every day.  For me it works perfectly.
But you are right, it a little bit more clumsy.

Bluetooth GPS app does also not work with this Garmin GPS10x
I do not know why, but I may have something to do with support of GARMIN own format in this device

I was just curios if somebeody have the same problem that I have.
at least I found one software that works

"Bluetooth GPS Provider" from android market works with Garmin GPS 10x and Location mocking enabled
but I would prefer direct solution in Locus if possible :)
