Are you referring to links like these:

https://redmine.replicant.us/boards/21/topics/12057

I'm using my own build of Wolfgang's source tree on my daily phone since
2016-09-08, see post below.  I got GPS to work as well, see my snippet
at https://gitlab.com/snippets/25705

The only annoyance not mentioned in that post that I experience is that
the GUI "locks up" for a second or two sometimes, usually when I click a
back button or the home button.  I suspect it is trying to do something
(a screenshot?) that fails and times out.  Other than that, and the
things mentioned in the earlier post, things appear to work just as good
or bad as the Android 4.2 0004 release for me.
