exactly my point, we are only focusing on the GPS sensor.

Hm... In my tweak, the first step is to download, install, and run Fasterfix (not Fixit, i not sure whether they did the same thing or not). But i didn't mentioned that it is optional to use the faster fix or not. I suggest to run, to be a safer step. Yes, it will write the gps.conf (but currently not sure whether the app change other things or not until i verify with the app dev). So i just keep the whole process that i gone through to make my gps works

Here comes the rest from OP just copied in.
I'm flashing (Lollipop) nightlies so it'd be nice to be able to add a flashable zip to the list, rather than having to go into an app to update the gps info.
Could someone post a gps.zip file which is valid for my Nexus 4, for Europe/Spain?
Many thanks
I am trying to do this trick on my nexus 5. I just wiped my phone back to stock, then rooted with CF auto root. I installed ES file manager. When I go to move the gps.conf file that I created to the located it comes up with an error that says "open failed: EROFS (Read-only file system). How do I get it to allow me to write over the existing GPS.conf?
Make sure your file explorer is set in preferences to use root permissions. Some are set by default to not, you have to tell them to allow or prompt. Also check in your superuser app to make sure you've granted permission to the file explorer or at the very least not denied it.Yes it is rooted via CF auto root. I have superuser on my phone and have verified root via root checker.
You have to mount your system partition.I am trying to do this trick on my nexus 5. I just wiped my phone back to stock, then rooted with CF auto root. I installed ES file manager.
