They could just be going off of default specifications.

IMHO, I would not purchase that thing. I think I got my GPS working perfectly, a little testy at times to catch a fix, but once it starts it works great.

Exactly my point. Maybe its worthy for someone who has problems with the gps signal.

Agreed, but many people have no idea just how difficult it is to figure out how to get a gps fix. I am not too sure how the Kaiser acts but with the Tilt it can be a hassle, especially after flashing a new rom.
I get better GPS reception from my house than phone reception
ok thanks =) saved me $30
Almost needed at times
I have almost considered the external antenna at times but then I would replace the phone first too. I guess not many people rely on GPS that much with this phone. I cannot upgrade to any newer 6.1 roms because I lose my very fast cold fix times for satellites. I really enjoy the gps and the newer roms but had to choose functionality first. Try different radios and roms if you have the patience to see what works best for you. Ive heard some users say this is more of a tilt problem than a TYTNII problem but I have a tilt so I cannot say for sure, but my gps just doesnt work as well with the newer roms. Hope this helps
Ìs anybody else experiencing very poor GPS reception? Compared to my old HTC Desire, the reception and logging with Sportypal or MyTracks is waaayyyy off. Always! No spikes or something, but really just way off, 20 meters left/right. I have this issue both with stock ROM and Temasek's CM7. It really sucks, logging basically almost becomes unusable for running, because workouts need a lot of post adjustments.
I tried using a utility caled "GPS Test", to download latest GPS coördinates for Assisted GPS, but it actually doesn't make a difference.

You mean before you get a GPS lock at all? Or you mean you get a GPS fix quickly, but it's accurate only after 10-15 minutes?
I get a GPS fix pretty quickly, that's never the problem. Only the accuracy is the major problem.
I get a fix....it takes about 15 mins for accurate loc
Same here i get fix in few second, but way off on the map.

@dmxl,
Maybe you can try out this app called FasterFix featured in XDA:
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/speed-up-your-gps-fix-with-fasterfix/
CM7 for the 2x comes with europe.pool.ntp.org as GPS server.
If you're not living in Europe your fix time should get better when you change to a server for your region with the FasterFix app (get it from the PlayStore).
In case this won't help either try the GPS Aid app which does tweak some more values - but I've never used it and don't know if it will help or not.

Thanks! I'll Try that, but I do get a fast fix, it just stays inaccurate during the length of the workout.

Yes, I'm located in Europe.
Thanks for your replies so far.

Ok tried with only 2G. Accuracy is even worse. Overall, with either 2G or 3G, it's só bad to such an extent, that it would be more accurate for me to just not use GPS, and draw the line myself in the browser with Sportypal or My Tracks and fill in the minutes of the total duration.
It's basically unusable compared to my old HTC Desire (which I sold, stupid me).
Man oh man, must be a pretty crappy GPS chip....

Never had problems with GPS and cellular location services at all. Damn accurate and a GPS fix takes about 5s indoors. Amazing.

Hi sir, maybe you can try this app like in NovaHD Aroma setup.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...51bGwsMSwxLDMsImNvbS5Eb3VibGUuRmFzdGVyRml4Il0.
So now, you're able to fix your GPS.
:good: Push Thanks Button if that helped :good:

Same here, i've used Temasek's CM7 Kang for a loooooong time but switched to Owain's CM9 Kang a couple of weeks ago and ever since i've been getting faster and amazingly accurate fixes, even indoors.
Not sure if that's coincidence or a real improvement though.
How is the GPS on HTC one in term accuracy and speed of getting a lock? would appreciate any input

From my experience is as good as any other Android device i used, good accuracy, good speed of getting lock under clear sky, indoors, as always, depends on the building...
Other than that, depends on your location, my experience so far was great, overall experience. Used it for driving a few times with no problems.

Well, the thread it's about GPS and in my experience GPS works as good as any other Android phone i owned so far (HTC Sensation XL, Nexus S, Dell Streak 5), GPS satelites get connected about the same speed, but you can feel differences at zooming and such as the hardware is powerful. Other than that, i used only Google Maps, everything worked well for me, nothing to be missed here.
A more descriptive experience, imagine this: You live in a big city, you want to go to one street and you don't know where it is, go to the car, get in the car, activate mobile data, get into Google Maps, search for the street > get directions, everything works as fast as you can read this, even on a HSPA connection, after that, you put the phone somewhere on the dash, follow directions and that's pretty much it.
Hope this helps.
Coming from a 2011 phone... Using GPS Status Plus on my old phone gave me a result of 4 to 5 satellites without AGPS inside my house. With the HTC One it gave me a whooping 52 satellites although not all are getting connected. I'm not sure if it's just a bug or something but gave me a WTF moment for a minute.
I am coming from HTC inspire that has a HORRIBLE GPS. It usually take about half hour to get the GPS lock.. Thats why I wanted to know..
With both GPS and GLONASS support, it's pretty good.
Can someone confirm if it supports Galileo satellite signal? Galileo official website has this device in the list included by I can't find it in the specs neither in the gsmarena like websites...

You're right... I just bought it yesterday and GPS Satellites Viewer doesn't find any. Can you confirm if you are running Nougat as well if yes maybe it will be available on Oreo
