Revision history [back]

My first Impression of the Jolla C makes me wonder whether the following HW components are not (yet) supported by SFOS or even missing:

• GPS: my JollaC was unable to receive GPS signals and to provide location data
• Compass: no compass signal
• FM Radio: JollaC hardware supposely comprises an FM receiver (usualy as part of the Bluetooth circuit)

As far as I understand, the components mentioned are part of JollaC HW so maybe it is just the Software (APIs?) that is lacking.

EDIT: since I just learned that other JollaC got a GPS signal I have to say that I placed my JollaC next to an open window for more than half an hour, but neither GPS info nor poor maps produced any location info. Maybe I am too impatient

My first Impression of the Jolla C makes me wonder whether the following HW components are not (yet) supported by SFOS or even missing:

solved - GPS: my JollaC was unable to receive GPS signals and to provide location data - Compass: no compass signal solved - FM Radio: JollaC hardware supposely comprises an FM receiver (usualy as part of the Bluetooth circuit)

EDIT 2: found FM receiver in the media player - I guess a radio (transmitter, like in he N900) is indeed missing

However, my first observations maybe obsolete to a large extend. Thanks for all the hints!

BTW: all software I tried so far is running as expected. Well done, Jolla!
