Is there a way to verify that Mozilla Location Services work

Could you link the patch you are talking about, I can’t find it

I think you must be very in hurry getting a fix :–)
It is in posts #21 and #16 just just above, or here.

I must have been blind, couldn’t find it while browsing with SFOS Forum app. Thanks!

Necro bump since we have a new release and the thing still seems to suck.

Any ideas how to test or something?

It doesn’t suck but MLS rely on database that do not cover all of CellId. There are a lot of missing of 4G Cell Id in MLS database. You have to switch to 2G network to get best results.
To test does it work you need CellMon to check Cell Id, LocationId, mcc and mnc.
Then you can check if a cell you are logged in there is in a database, using terminal :

geoclue-mlsdb-tool --query 'locationId' 'cellId' 'mcc' 'mnc' /home/.system/usr/share/geoclue-provider-mlsdb/'countrycode'/'numer1-9'/mlsdb.data

Should you get “geoclue-mlsdb data file does not contain location of cell with id:” MLS will not work for that cell.

An answer is simple, a mobile cell you are connected to there is not in the MLS database.

Sorry but i have to bring in the big guns.

@rinigus can you verify that MLS works on your tama devices?

Have you checked there your cellID you are logged in is in MLS database?
