Incredibly slow and inaccurate GPS

this forum is only about the Fairphone, so either you have mistyped or you are in the wrong forum.

if you indeed have a fairphone you could install following apps to help your phone get a GPS fix faster:

  • FP1-EPO-Autoupdate to automaticly get those mysterious EPO files. (I don’t know what they are exactly either).

  • FasterGPS: after installing this app you need to run it and enterthe country you’re in.

  • if you do have Google Services on your phone you can allow Google to locate you with Wifi & mobile connections (System Settings > Location access), if you don’t you can install µg Unified Nlp to get a similiar but free service.

If you have an iPhone and GPS doesn’t work well there you’re pretty much screwed. :wink:
