Thanks to all of your help, I managed to finally get the fastboot working by the updating driver.
I am new to android as a whole, so I appreciate your patience and advice in these matters greatly.
One problem I faced is what exactly am I to do with the files given to us,
do I just need to download these on my laptop (yes windows 10)?
Also for the Fairphone version thing, I remember seeing on their website to be cautious of the anti-rollback feature, but I am still not too sure how to act accordingly, what did you guys do?
Thanks for all the help, and Iām looking forward to speaking to you guys again.
I read that Divest does not have any Network location provider. Is it possible to add some on my own? (Like UnifiedNLP) or is there something which prevents this technically?
Used CalyxOS on the FP4 and somehow used to get a quicker GPS fix.
Thx for pointing to it. Good and detailed FAQ I like that.
A detailed question:
GPS should lock within 2 minutes when outdoors and within 10 minutes indoors. Maximum GPS TTFF is 12.5 minutes due to their orbit and transmission rate.
Does this mean less than 2 minutes is not possible with DivestOS?
or are there any speed up possibilities to get (at least a rough) position in these points?:
On Tensor devices both PSDS and SUPL can be used to speedup GPS TTFF. It is recommended to disable SUPL on these devices.
On newer Qualcomm devices (ones thatād typically use xtra-daemon) SUPL is the only mechanism to obtain the almanac to speedup GPS TTFF. PSDS is not supported. It is not recommended to disable SUPL on these devices as it will cause very long lock times.
On older Qualcomm devices (ones thatād typically use libloc) PSDS may work in addition to SUPL to speedup GPS TTFF. It is recommended to disable SUPL on these devices.
In my case it is an FP3. It doesnāt have a Tensor chip. So I can strike out the first one. How do I know if the FP3 is in category old or new Qualcomm device (Snapdragon 632)?
If 2min is the best case I have to leave the house 2 min earlier. ^^ quite challenging in a bigger city where life is busy and navigation is needed quite often.
This is fundamentally how GPS works, the other devices just lie to you by sending your information off to a server to be processed and have that network location injected as GPS output.
Installed GPSLogger | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository and monitored this a bit.
Inside my house I donāt get a fix at all (waited longer than 15 min) even it shows 8-11 Satellites from time to time (had the phone near to a window), so a bit strange. Will test outsite when I have some time.
77 seconds TTFF when I checked it outdoor today. So less than 2 min
Indoor it basically stays like this forever (slighty changing the amount of Satellites):
Anyway I understand your argumentation why you donāt add NLP support or things like that, so I will live with that for the time I will go on using DivestOS.
Iāve always had a question:
Why do smartphones slow down after updates, whereas Linux shows performance improvements with each new version
Debian 12 is indeed very good; thereās been a real improvement in performance.
