Gemini PDA - Hardware / GNSS - Galileo support, instead of Beidou

Hi,
according to the Mediatec specs the implemented GNSS is capable of multi constellation GNSS reception. It supports GPS, GLONASS, Beidou and Galileo, but not at the same time, "only" three can be selected at once. By default the Gemini seems to be configured to GPS+GLONASS+Beidou, which makes sense in China. But in Europe it would make more sense to replace Beidou with Galileo, especially since the Galileo constellation will be completed soon and Galileo just announced that the high precision mode (down to 20cm accuracy!) will become a free general service.
Is this possible? And if yes, how?
It should be fairly easy to do, technically, but documentation is a little hard to find.
Cheers
