[FIX] GPS Fixes

[MarkInDaPark]

try using mobile data to get a good starting point (google's location service), also check gps source in location settings, and then try to get the precise location somewhere with a good view of sky....every next time it'll be faster, (you can even disable google's location service if you don't like it being turned on,it should still work faster than the first time after flashing)

edit: i just tried what i wrote above and got fix in no time,even from my room,using zeubeas cm9 beta3 freshly flashed... so, enable mobile data for a brief time until you get gps lock then you can disable it if you wish

I am ALWAYS using 3G data, everything in Location is turned on.
I can get precise location if I activate WiFi, but if I'm out in the forest I dont want to rely on something like that.

Go to the market and download GPS checker or GPS test there is at least 2 different ones or GPS status, there is heaps of GPS apps on the market for this purpose.
Fyi the last time I used GPS on beta3 (yesterday) it took 1188 seconds for GPS lock, the first time it took 216 seconds, and other locks took various other times like 500+ and 300 seconds.

According to "GPS Timer" I have 3 satelites connected and I'm using 3.
Been trying to lock for 7 minutes now, no result yet. Outdoors and a clear view of the sky.

The app fastergps from play store seems to work in my case.

Before the app setting. My GPS seems to point me in the middle of the sea never able to lock. After putting proper region in the app. GPS lock almost instant.
