Acceptance into the store will happen after we have updated to Qt 5.2, the first Qt release that includes Qt Positioning. > If it is qt-positioning I would like to know what I have to do to get > precise gps data.

There are two positioning sources used on the Jolla device, wifi and AGPS. You should receive a wifi based fix within a couple of seconds, followed shortly after by a more accurate GPS fix. You can check this by peeking the home screen. The satellite icon will blink when the most accurate requested fix has not yet been obtained, and be on when it has.

Re: [SailfishDevel] GPS Location service (QTLocation or QTPositioning)
Hi Hendrik What do you mean by "bad location data?" Qt Positioning / Location should be way to go. The old Mobility Location (from which Positioning / Location descends) worked on the Nokia N9 Chris Zitat von "Hendrik Borghorst" : Hello guys, I want to develop some kind of MTB tracking application. I develop in real device and want to know which module for position data is the best way to go. On the device I see that qt-location and qt-positioning is installed. As qt-positioning is part of qt 5.2 I would think this is the way to go. If it is qt-positioning I would like to know what I have to do to get precise gps data. At the moment it seems that I only get only bad location data. I know that currently the packages are not accepted in harbour. greetings ___ SailfishOS.org Devel mailing list
[SailfishDevel] GPS Location service (QTLocation or QTPositioning)
Hello guys, I want to develop some kind of MTB tracking application. I develop in real device and want to know which module for position data is the best way to go. On the device I see that qt-location and qt-positioning is installed. As qt-positioning is part of qt 5.2 I would think this is the way to go. If it is qt-positioning I would like to know what I have to do to get precise gps data. At the moment it seems that I only get only bad location data. I know that currently the packages are not accepted in harbour. greetings signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ SailfishOS.org Devel mailing list
