Hi, I wanted to give the GSM location a try. So what I would like to acchieve in the end is:
0. GPS off 1. GSM Cells are detected 2. Triangulation takes place (I don't know yet if eg signal strength is used) 3. Look-up in the OpenCellID offline (!) text database 4. Position being shown in NeronGPS as in eg in the Whereabouts-Mappingdemo shown on the QtMokoDev Page [1] So I started with step 1 and I am a bit stuck. The numbers for the location that the Mokofaen theme displays somehow do not match any of the cell towers my phone is most likely to be connected to: Most likely I am connected to mcc 262; mnc 3; lac 40096 and cellid 137380532 [2] which has nowhere the numbers I get on my home screen: 296/25326 So where am I going wrong. The next question would be: Is there a simple way to get the other surrounding cells and their signal strength (I remember openbmap client was able to do that in shr-unstable). thanks for your advice robin [1] http://radekp.github.com/qtmoko/api/whereabouts-mappingdemo.html [2] http://www.opencellid.org/cell/get?key=myapikey&mcc=262&mnc=3& cellid=29625326&lac=40096 /Telephony/Status/CellLocation _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
