0.7.0-15.alpha software version

[vkbakken]

When using the 0.7.0-15.alpha firmware release. What is the best application side code to go with it. Should still tag v0.3 be used of: zephyr, nrfconnect and nrfxlib?

Especially with respect to the GPS this would be crucial - since there has only been the gps-sim.c code to take of the gps until now....what flags should be used for correct gps operation with0.7.0-15.alpha?

Hello, 

Currently, there is no support in the official SDK, but we expect to release a newer version within May which supports GPS. The status of the nRF9160 can be tracked here. 

. Should still tag v0.3 be used of: zephyr, nrfconnect and nrfxlib?

 No, please update to the latest version using West, Zephyr’s meta-tool.

Kind regards,
Øyvind

Hi Oyvind,

I guess within May is today.... My guess is that you ment by the end of May?

I am happy to code something up myself - so any pointers to documentation for the GPS API is appreciated.

Can you detail the steps to use West for me? I see that there is a tag v0.4-rc1? I have not have 100% luck following master until now. Maybe you could be kind enough to detail for me the step using West....

I'm having issues with west today, not sure if it's local or global. Will get back to you on that part. In the meantime, you could try to follow this tutorial. Let me know if you are able to complete the steps.
