Hi Everyone.

I have the Star S7589 and it works great but the GPS is the worst I've used on any device.

I'm in the UK and the phone is rooted.

How can I fix the GPS please?

That was the first app I tried. Still takes forever to get a fix and lock.

Is there a GPS config fix that I can place at the system root ?

Tried the above (manual way) and it made a big difference. The Phone took about 30 seconds to get a lock (much slower than my iphone) but once locked, it was very good.

Shame there's no compass (that I can find) on this phone because it would make it complete.

Hope this thread helps someone else to fix GPS issues on their China imported devices.
