I tried upgrading to XXJG5. While I appear to get a more stable signal, there seems to be some buffering.
If you use programs like MyTracks or Waze, you may lose the GPS connection, and the GPS will still think you're 100 feet away. But this time, instead of zig zags, it seems to think that you have to be there and it has to draw in the map until that point has been reached.
I got some REALLY odd tracks in Waze and MyTracks.
I never had this in my newer SGS running XXJF3, but that eventually too crapped out on me after a couple of weeks.
Im beginning to think that this actually isn't firmware but a really bad design and rather than fixing the driver and the reporting of the data, Samsung are just putting in hacks to try and get around the issue. Mmmmm.
