Installing microG on Sailfish OS

I don’t see anything new here

A simple summary, that’s the novelty.

@miau

The GPS stopped working thread is initally about the XA2, which cannot connect to a SUPL server without suplpatch, because it has no certificate for the secure connection. So your settings were already tested and do not work on the XA2.

The patch exists so the XA2 users should be happy.

@miau

And many people claimed that they don’t wan’t to use A-GPS, because this does not fix the initial problem.

This part is not clear for me

I can understand that they wish to use ‘device only’ mode because privacy concerns but I did not get that the GPS was previously working indoor without A-GPS. Is it a specific problem of XA2 or a general problem? Considering that I have a X10II, it might be a general problem.

Also SUPL only works with mobile data not when connected to a wifi network.

Without changes was working well with a WiFi connection over fiber probably because such a connection was able to sync the system clock precisely enough and obviously this require the autoupdate of time/date set.

With these changes is working with a mobile 4G connection + UDP VPN, also. So, from my PoV is a great advantage because now I can have indoor GPS quickly working with my mobile connection. Which was my goal.
