So HTC S730 has GPS on chip but no aerial ? (also might need driver)

Could we use this as an aerial ?

I think, that idea to use internal GPS parts of s730 was definitely resigned after so lot of time spent to solve this.

U can use a cheap Bluetooth GPS reciever.
I got one from ebay for 20$ and 10$ shipping. Works perfect and can be charged through the mini-usb charger (batterly lasts more than 20hours)
