Take the 2-minute tour ×  I've written an app that relies
heavily on GPS. It works fine on HTC and other manufacturers
apart from Samsung. Does Samsung or more particularly the Ace 2
have a known problem with GPS lock? It works fine on my HTC One
X and takes around 5 secs to get a lock whereas on the Samsung
can sometimes take a minute or so if it gets a lock at all,
which when the app is rolled out this time span is unacceptable.
My company is to recommend 500 phones to the companies which the
app is to be rolled out to, so it's very important that we
distinguish whether it's a software or a hardware problem.  I've
found this thread on StackOverflow which points to a possible
problem but the thread is 2years old.  Samsung problem  Does
anyone know of a problem with Samsung?  Thanks in advance
share|improve this question I can't get my Ace2 to lock on GPS
at all with the Gaia GPS topo app. To check, I downloaded the
GPS Test app, made sure GPS was turned on, and left the phone in
an open area for an hour. It
