Android alt-beacon model distance calculations

Android Alt-Beacon library distance calculation code uses model-distance-calculation.json file to find model specific equation coefficients.
The default list only contains 4 models.
Is there a more extensive list of models and their coefficients available somewhere?

Thanks
Andy

Unfortunately there is no large list of beacon distance calculation coefficients for the thousands of Android devices out there.

I am the one who came up with the idea of a model-distance-calculations.json file to serve as a database for these coefficients in the Android Beacon Library. I had hoped that submissions from the community would lead to many popular Android devices being included. Unfortunately, taking the measurements and doing the calculations has proven to be a more difficult hurdle for folks in the community, and as a result, the database is quite limited. Sorry!
