Hello together,
is there any option to calibrate the gps hardware, or to enter something like "correction value"?
I own two Pinephone64 3MB devices, that I bought about begin of 2020.
From day one, both devices showed my GPS position wrong. After some time of warmup, they find that, what they think is my position and show it in the map. However. the position is always about 300 ft south west my real position.
This error does not change over time (after more warmup), not from distro to distro and not from version to version.
It is not related to my actual position. It seems not to be related to the devices regional settings.
As I was very unsatisfied by other Pinephone / Mobile Linux features, I let it go, hoping, this would be a bug, someone else would report.
Am I missing anything?
Best regards
Frytz
let me add, that I use the devices in Europe
