Re: [Ubuntu-phone] Use cell towers for faster location fix
Hi Mattias, Thanks for the mail. I don't know much about the other services, but know a bit about MLS. Here's my thoughts. On 8 June 2016 at 20:52, Mattiaswrote: > There are open source > databases with an api like http://opencellid.org and > https://location.services.mozilla.com/. I've been keeping an eye on MLS for some time now. The data is crowd-sourced by users of Firefox OS devices, users of Firefox Browser on Android [1], and Android users who install the Mozilla Stumbler app [2] & remember to keep it open while travelling around. With Firefox OS on phones dead, that only leaves Android Firefox Users (who opt-in) and users of Mozilla Stumbler. That's quite a commitment for Android users with no direct benefit to them, which I suspect - combined with the lack of Firefox OS devices, contributes to why there's a low number of people contributing data to MLS [3]. I've been a Mozilla Stumbler contributor for well over a year on Android devices. I've noticed that in the last month a very small number of people submit data. A total of ~360 people *world* *wide* have run the apps and contributed data, and in many countries there are very few contributors. Columbia for example has two contributors who have amassed only 22 datapoints between them. I've managed to get to position #2 in the Czech Republic and #37 in the USA on the official leaderboard [3] despite spending only 7 days in each country since the leaderboard was reset mid-April. With a low number of people contributing, the data will likely become stale / inaccurate. So I'd caution using that database in particular unless it can be proved the provider has long term plan for keeping the data up to date and accurate.

Re: [Ubuntu-phone] Use cell towers for faster location fix
Hi, I totally agree, ubuntu should be using an AGPS based on open databases. However I think it's not the case. In any case, such an implementation needs to be at location-service level, not app level. I haven't had time to check how complex it would be to try to implement that from scratch and make location service use this AGPS service instead of the one being used right now. By the way, I just got notified that the bug related to usage of cell towers for AGPS has changed status to "in-progress" which sounds great! https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1500039 Best Regards, Felipe.

[Ubuntu-phone] ANNOUNCEMENT: Changes to how Britney runs on Bileto tickets / CI Train Silos
Hi, I noticed recently that it was taking approximately 80 minutes for britney to churn through all the silos, so I've made a simple change to speed things up: >From now on, if a ticket has been approved either by britney or by qa, britney will no longer inspect that silo. This has been in production for a couple hours and already the britney run time is down to about 19 minutes, so that's a big win. The only drawback is that if you believe britney has approved your ticket by mistake, it'll be "stuck" in the approved state and you'll have to clear & reset your lander signoff in order to clear the britney signoff for it to re-process your silo. I don't expect this to happen very often but it's theoretically possible. Please do let me know if you're seeing unexpected results in your excuses files. -- robru -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone Post to : ubuntu-phone@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-phone] Use cell towers for faster location fix
Hi, Does someone know if there is already software that makes you get a faster location fix using cell tower information? I noticed that a-gps works quite well in the city area but not in the country side. There are already a few open source projects (for android) that do this, but I am wondering if it is or there are plans to integrate this in ubuntu touch. There are open source databases with an api like http://opencellid.org and https://location.services.mozilla.com/. For android there is UnifiedNlp and with a backend: https://github.com/n76/Local-GSM-Backend. Would be great to have something like that for Ubuntu.
