[Q] Omega Rom - no GLONASS?

[LevFetI]

I've tried out Omega 43.1 this weekend, and discovered that its gps module doesn't seem to use GLONASS satellites. Using a gps test app, I can see glonass satellites for a split second, but they disappear immediately.

I've installed the gps fix mod from the Omega faq, to no avail.

ARHD does use GLONASS satellites normally, you can see those in a gps test app all the time.

Using GLONASS satellites improves the accuracy of gps a bit, therefore it would be a desirable feature for Omega Roms as well.

Ideas, anyone?

[Update]
I've installed the apgs fix from this thread. That seems to have helped. I'm seeing a few GLONASS satellites now. Unfortunately, I've installed the perseus kernel at the same time. I'm not sure if that contributed to the fix, as well.

I see no difference between either of those roms and it looks like they have the same GPS files .They are built from the same source

Omega 43.1 is old rom .

AW: [Q] Omega Rom - no GLONASS?

Hmm, I'm not sure if it was the agps fix I installed or the kernel. Anyway, the situation has improved remarkably. I am now seeing many GLONASS satellites. Perhaps it is not related to installing the fix or kernel. Could be the the phone simply isn't downloading agps data for GLONASS satellites. Naturally, it would take a few minutes until the phone sees those, then.
