Will J2ME Location Based API work without GPS

Question

Will J2ME Location Based API work without GPS?can you gave me example ?

Answer 1

Depends on the device implementation!

On many devices you can specify the behaviour during accessing the Location API. (Nokia s40 lets you search for bluetooth gps devices e.g.)

If the location API is able to use data like cellID, LAC, ... (if you specify low accuracy criteria) depends on the device implementation and even if your operator lets you use those values. ( http://www.easywms.com/easywms/?q=en/node/3589 )

Many devices do have the API on board even if they are not equipped with gps functionality.
