This module provides an improved GPS functionality with a better and faster accuracy location reference.
The stock android gps.conf file found in "/system/etc/gps.conf" or "/system/vendor/etc/gps.conf" is replaced with a new one correctly edited for a better improvement and faster satellite signals fix/lock. This file is responsible for the correct GPS operation and functionality. The default file found in most ROMs is very wrong and has a lot of bad information and settings for the correct operation and functionality of the GPS and A-GPS.
