The problem here is likely that there is no or incomplete information about cell towers at your location. Thus the IchnaeaNlpBackend relies on the wi-fi information. If you disable wi-fi this is no longer possible and the location can't be updated. Some phones also report cell information. Please check the cell database coverage at http://gsm-map.com/
Thank you very much for your help!! I understand, perhaps there isn't enough data on my area, I should check the data available in Tarragona.
One more question, can I use two different backends at the same time, one for Wi-Fi and another one for gsm?
Thank you very much and very best regards!! :D

Yes that's possible and an intended use. Select as many backends as you like.
Thank you very much for your help!!
I'll try, I hope I can run it.
Again, thank you very much and very best regards!! :D

@mar-v-in The URL you gave (http://gsm-map.com

Hi!! :smiley:
I've installed Networklocation.apk and IchnaeaNlpBackend in my Meizu MX3 as you explain in the main Readme doc. But I'm not sure if it works correctly, let me explain, I hope you will understand me because English it's not my language. Apologizes…
First of all, before installing the apk and the backend I was sure that the phone couldn't locate me by wifi/3G. Then installed Networklocation.apk plus IchnaeaNlpBackend and started the testings. What I did:
1.- In my office the phone located me correctly by wifi. Then, I turned off wifi and turned on the 3G connection. I'd checked the position and I was still in the same place. 2.- After, when I arrived at home I connected the phone to my wifi, I live in another city 20 kms far from my work. I refreshed some apps which use the location service and still appeared to be in work. 3.- Then I installed AppleWifiNlpBackend, checked again and then the apps showed me the correct location, at home. 4.- Then, I selected the IchnaeaNlpBackend again, I turned off wifi and turned on data. The location still was on my work, 20 kms far from home. 5.- After, I did the reverse process, turned off data and turned on wifi. IchnaeaNlpBackend located me at the right place.
And now, I really have no idea if it works or not, I'm a non-technical user so I'm really lost… When the backend connects to Mozilla servers? Every determined period of time?
Thank you very much and kind regards!! :smile:
