I use Co-Pilot, or if you want a free gps, try to port the htc locations to your device, using adb, or flash the rom that has the included htc locations (mordoco i believe)

jark, i am not looking for a GPS app but an app that will tell me whats apps i have installed are using GPS or location. i am having a problem with my GPS so i wanna try and see if theres another app thats using GPS is screwing it up. thanks

menu>settings>applications>show permissions>fine (GPS) location
this will show you what apps are using what security permissions on the phone

Navigation HERO (by entering gps coordinates)

Is there any navigation soft, where can I navigate on specific latitude and longitude coordinates, by walking in wild nature?
Thanks, it's urgent for me.

Use gps status, free on the market. Or try gps test plus.

GPS Status
Superb app my friend, thanks a lot, this is just the thing Ive been looking for. Cheers

Here's how I solved the GPS / FIX problems!!!

Hello everyone ...
I upgraded to Gingerbread, I realized that there was no longer among the programs the compass ... So after downloading it again, opening it, I realized that was not working properly, so I had to calibrate ... Then I also downloaded fasterfix from the market ...
Result GPS and FIX my SGS are back to work!
In the hope of being useful to you I apologize for the English translation is not so accurate!
Let me know if this suggestion helped you solve your problems with GPS and FIX!!

I downloaded a free aps called Gps Aids (from Market) and now the GPS on my SGS (froyo) works beautifully.

what about 2.3.4 FW?

I use fasterfix on 2.3.4

Alwais remember to calibrate your compass... And if u don't know how try search on google... ;-)

GPS Aids is the best apk for GPS fix...
Regards

It works thank you for sharing.

GPS aids + proper NTP server + setting from STANDALONE to MSBASED for faster fix.

jvo gps files - crap gps
jv9 gps files - better
nexus gps files - best
=)
gps aids is crappy mostly paid app and ntp server have close to zero impact on gps =)

almost all 2.3.3 uses JVO GPS file - aside off some carier or asian

I also recomend GPS Aid, it fixed my Gps after upgrade to 2.3.3 by Kies.

I dunno about all the above gps applications as to how good they are, cos they workat different levels of efficiency at different times, but I have seen that if you have the correct gps.conf file based on the geographical location (continent preferably) it has always given me a within 30 sec lock and a <30 m accuracy everytime.

Better GPS lock time?

Hey guys after I downloaded sygic navigation I'm starting to use the GPS a lot more. It just takes forever to find a lock when I'm not even moving. Is there any way to decrease the lock time? I've already flashed the GPS file for my area but it still takes awhile. Anyone have any ideas?

what I always do in every room is, download romtoolbox go to rootbrowser, open etc/GPS.conf and the change the servers according to the country I'm living, then save, by doing that I get a lock in less then 10 sec using 3g network

Thats what the angle death .zip files do. But thanks!
Actually now that i realize it, its not the actuall locking time, its that say when i have sygic open, and i leave the program, it drops my GPS lock and now i need to wait for it to lock again once i re-enter the program and that is VERY annoying. Same thing with Google maps and my weather app for looking at radar.

[Q] -GPS only- CAN'T LOCK LOCATION in KITKAT (INU-G4)
