1. Go into your phones "EngineerMode" (most Mediatek devices
have this) by typing *#*#3646633#*#* into the dialer (it can also
be accessed through MTK apps from playstore).
2. Go to the "Location"-tab and select “Location Based Service”.
3. Go to the "AGPS"-tab and turn off AGPS by deselecting "A-GPS
On/Off".
4. Go to the “GPS"-tab and make sure GPS is off, then clear ail
presets in your GPS chip by seperately choosing the "GPS MODES"
Full, VzW Cold, delete EPH, delete Time. After each selection press
the "DELETE" button. (maybe deleting the "Full" one os enough,
not sure)
In step 5 when searching the location satellite without AGPS, use
this App to fix (I need this, otherwise it does not work) :GPS TEST :

5. Now go into an open space that should give the best possible
GPS reception. Turn on GPS (AGPS stays off!), then swipe over to
the "VIEW"-tab and wait for your phone to find sattelites. It will
take @ little longer because it has to start from scratch, (but I don't
think it will be more than 3 minutes) Might actually take up to 30
minutes! Use Google Maps as a reference. Position needs to be rock
solid and on the spot! (Wait for it to have a really good position
though - like at least 8 green sattelites.) Once you're confident with
the resuit -->
6. Go back to the "GPS"-tab, turn off GPS, then click on "REF
POSITION" and choose "APPLY LAST LOCATION".
7. Go to the "AGPS"- tab and re-enable "A-GPS On/Off".
8. Go to the "GPS"-tab and enable GPS (it will now download AGPS
data).
9. Enjoy fast focation fixes and a stable GPS signalilink to the page

WHEN THE WIFI IS ACTIVATED!This upsets the GPS, so surely
software would require an update, but this method works and really
improves GPS positioningIf you have a car athermic windscreen,
uncheck the a-gps, I noticed that it works much better without in
