Firefox OS/Geolocation: Difference between revisions

Next, the configuration of a-gps is in two parts.  The first part is in Gecko.  B2G/gaia currently uses supl 1.0 with cell fallback.  We have code in our geolocation provider that informs the modem that an agps server is located at a QC supl1 server.  We do this by calling an API and pass only a FQDN and a port.  The other part that needs to be configured is the “modem”.  The modem needs to be configured with TLS enabled and the certificate of the QC supl1 server.  Mozilla does NOT have any way to configure the modem and OEMs are encouraged to discuss this with their chip manufacturer.  (I am using QC here because as of this writing, that is who where using.  If you are using another chip manufacturer you'll have to work with them on an a-gps service).

So, to recap – Mozilla does not ship binaries.  Mozilla does not configure Modems.  If you are shipping devices, you must ensure that a-gps is configurated properly.  Configuration of a-gps is completely outside of the skills and tools that Mozilla can provide.
