Is compass working?

I tried the latest version, everything seem to be working except I could not get the compass. All the apps always show 0.0º. Anyone got it working?

Edit: Just tested Trail Sense app from f-droid. Compass is working!

Compass still is not working with "OSMAND"

I had some issues with the compass since updating, too. First, it didn't work anymore. After reboot, it seemed to work with "here" and "Kompass" (R.Apps) but not with "osmand". I tried the fix it (rights management, microg) but no success!

Compass still is not working with "OSMAND" like before...?

Compass works correctly for me on OSMAND, GPSTest, Trail Sense and SatStat; all installed from f-droid.

What works but not as good as I expected is the GPS. Signal is lost too often and location through cell network is ineffective because it can only detect one tower at a time. Don't know if it is a hardware or software limitation. Low accuracy mode is more reliably but I have to drive around a region with GPS enabled and working correctly first for it to map it correctly the second time in low accuracy mode.

I cannot find any information about the reasons, but /e/ has withdrawn all the v0.12 rom images. :confused:
I assume that there will be a bugfix version in a few days.
Thanks in advance, if you find out about a new update, I know that you can do it here? As for version e0.12 why have release notes have it removed? Do you know what a problem with GPS problems? I have only tested the GPS of this version e0.12, which is what I want to use this mobile for, I have no sim card or anything until there is a stable ROM and everything is working. thanks

Adding NTP_SERVERs may improve

I could not time it precisely but I added some ntp servers from my country in /system/etc/gps.conf. It seems to fix faster now.

Maybe messing with gps seetings in gps.conf can improve. Is anybody willing to make some tests?

gps works surprisingly :) Magisk manager for root works, too!
But opengapps for google playstore doesn`t work. I need it for some paid apps! Any idea? I used actual version 7.1.
New update: https://images.ecloud.global/dev/n7100/

ROM is awesome guys. Everything works. You can use Playstore from Nanolx Fdroid repo for iAPs.

Thank you
I couldn't install neither Opengapps nor Nanolx (latest version) on e12. I tried latest versions for everything. For Nanolx, Fdroid install method fails while installing "Google Play Store" and Nanodroid install method via TWRP doesnt show "Google Play Store" on ROM after installing.
if one of them is working for you, could you please give a step by step instruction including version numbers.

Thx
