[android-developers] Re: CDMA getCellLocation() does not work

Yeah, I've read the reference pages, it doesn't help...that's why I
asked.

The reference page doesn't explain why the LAT/LON is not known. The
Base Station ID is known, the Network ID is known. Almost everything
in the telephonymanager returns a valid result but this. Why? If you
Google this you will see that nobody actually gets a result from this
method. A simple note from the Android team explaining that they hope
to implement this sometime in the future would help, rather then let
us spin our wheels trying to fix something that doesn't work in the
first place.

And the other question is why is the result an integer? LAT/LON is not
an integer.

Oh well, I never expected a real answer, but I had to ask...thanks.
