Navigation modules in smartphones that are being developed today and running on Android are being developed at the production stage. As a rule, these basic accessory devices do not function well. All you need to do is open the GPS, Vikorist and settings menus and launch the popular “maps” program. For a number of devices, there is a need for local medicine.
When the GPS is constantly turned off, the determination of coordinates does not take one line. However, this function does not work in the Android gadget. Most often, the problem lies in incorrect or completely daily GPS settings.
Necessary additional services

In order to identify your location, check the satellite reception on your smartphone, it is recommended to set up additional services. They run on Android phones without any problems:
- a-gps (a service that additionally enhances data about the location of the Internet, which is used by services Stilnikov operators. The accuracy of this option is much worse, but its functioning is also accelerated by the accurate satellite reading);
- wi-fi;
- EPO (a service provided by Mediatek, which further distributes traffic in the orbits of navigation satellites).
However, EPO data in phones licensed in Asia and Europe may not work properly. During 2012-2014, the Mediatek company began to manufacture chipsets with outstanding characteristics, which are similar to those of Sony, LG, and HTC brands in its products. Thus, Android smartphones with an MTK processor may experience problems with navigation due to improperly functioning GPS).

In one of the articles we looked at how to create a TV remote control from a smartphone.
It is important to know that a smartphone does not have a GPS module. Most budget gadgets have this simple navigation feature installed. It is not so important what kind of smartphone you have as you need to get directions or find out where you are in an unknown place. To turn on GPS on your smartphone, you don’t need any special knowledge - just press the required button and everything will be requested. But you don’t know everything about how you can adjust GPS on Android so that your smartphone’s battery doesn’t run out.
Let's talk about the main stages GPS setup, as well as a number of add-ons for Android, which can help you check the operation of the GPS module.
GPS does not start automatically on smartphones. In order to calm him down and tune him up, you need to dig a little into the tune-ups. In the skin version of Android, the activation path looks a little different. We will look at the main stages of turning on and setting up GPS on a smartphone running Android 6.0 Marshmallow.
Stage 1: Switching on
To turn off GPS, slide the notification shade down and press the button to display the hour, date, and battery charge. You need to click on the gear icon, after which you will go to Adjustment. In addition, you can spend up to tuning through the private button in the main menu. Go to the Special Data section and click on the Uninstall button. There will be a switch at the top of the screen that activates GPS.
Stage 2: Adjustment
After washing, the removal of the smartphone is indicated for all devices. Data from GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and mobile measures for precise positioning with an accuracy of up to 10-15 meters. This function will ensure high reliability of geolocation, taking into account that this mode drains the smartphone battery. Therefore, in settings you can select one of two economical modes:
- Behind the coordinates of the boundary
- By GPS satellites
The first mode excludes Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and mobile data. It is necessary for your smartphone to connect to the Internet via Wi-Fi, or you will need to start Bluetooth mode. Without circumferential connection The progress of the smartphone is indicated by the signal from the base station.
Since there is no access to the Internet, and the nearest radio station is only tens of kilometers away, then you need to use geolocation using GPS satellites.
After GPS is turned on and set up on your smartphone, you can easily install a navigator program for Android. You can choose the most user-friendly and functional navigator.
To check how GPS works on your smartphone, you can click special supplement in the store Google Play. We will look at three programs available for cat-free riding. For them full-time robots it is necessary to go out into the street.

Today I was recently thinking about the issue of bad GPS signal reception on my Chinese smartphone Jiayu G2. But, unknown to me, the problem was solved in just a couple of minutes - the “Chinese” knows the satellites for 20 seconds. And now let's talk about everything.
I have a lot of new arrivals Chinese phone, requests on Aliexpress. The phone is great for such a pittance, and everything would have been perfect, except the GPS module found satellites for a long time, in about a year, no less. This is true when Wi-Fi is turned on and A-GPS and GPS EPO assistance are checked. I couldn’t calm down at all and had a chance to come up with a funny post from the livejournal blog, which is why I was trying to get my first Android smartphone up and running. The essence came down to redaction gps.conf additional programs. It didn’t help the “Chinese friend”, but after the first (and still remaining) reset to factory settings, the GPS became even harder to catch - leaving for a year in the open air in search of companions and no result. And today I started joking again korisny post on the livejournal blog and came across an update on the post:
"Fantastic!" I thought about it and immediately went after my errands. Same as with the first post, this time more specific activities were highlighted, and replaced instead of the file gps.conf(You can tell by its dosage /etc/gps.conf, please blame root-rights) for the latest settings:

The GPS module is incorrect - the problem with Android devices has been expanded. The system can connect to satellites, but navigation still does not work. In some cases, there is a defect in the knitting due to a breakdown of the hardware part of the gadget, otherwise a larger situation may arise using software methods. Below is a description of how to work without using GPS on Android.
For self-diagnosis, take the test. The virtual assistant will identify the problem and show you what to do.
GPS diagnostics
Problems with GPS
The first thing you need to do if the GPS sensor does not work is to restart your smartphone and scan it with antivirus. Mozhlivo, RAM The device is full, and there are no processor resources available to activate communication with satellites. Or there was a glitch in the operating system.
What matters most is how the navigator on your phone works. Yandex.Maps or navigation from Google communicates with the system’s satellites and requests data about the exact local location of the customer. The collected information is collected to determine the optimal route and selection of public transport. If the GPS module stops functioning, normal navigation is not possible with the use of A-GPS technology. The main reasons for failure to operate are software problems, and in some cases, hardware module malfunctions.
Geolocation services do not work on Android because the configuration settings contain incorrect parameters. The defect may also be caused by the installation of faulty firmware or the lack of necessary drivers.
The navigator on Google or Yandex works poorly when the satellite signal is weak. It is important to remember that the programs will always correctly display the place of retreading, and you cannot rely on the system when hiking or off-roading. To troubleshoot problems, let's look at the causes and methods of most popular problems.
Reasons for missing signal
You can see two main groups of faults: hardware and software. The first ones are repaired by qualified specialists at service centers, while others can be corrected at home.
- Hardware is a building component that goes out of tune after mechanical impact on the body of the device, for example, a fall or strong impact. The cause of the breakdown may be the loss of material onto the main board due to subsequent oxidation of the contacts.
- Software - infection with freebies software security, incorrect firmware or failures during the update - all this means that the product driver is corrupted.
Incorrect adjustment
Correctly setting the smartphone parameters - locking correct work GPS systems on Android.
- If Android doesn’t know where to go, go to settings for the device, then – “Underground”, after which open “Unlock and modes”.
- On the “Location” tab, indicate the desired positioning method. As you say, “Only companions,” Android does not rely on A-GPS technology, which collects data from nearby satellites and Wi-Fi network Improved geopositioning accuracy.
- Try setting the “Mobile only” mode to reverse the usefulness of the cards. If the navigation is stuck, there is a problem with the driver or hardware.
- If the GPS on Android does not turn on (the system does not respond to changing the option) - perhaps there is a problem with the firmware. Vikonaite outside skidannya Set up or contact the service center.
- To reset your customization, click on the “Updates and Discards” tab, and then click on “Reset your navigation and navigation settings.” Please sign in before Google account record for confirmation.
Important! All saved passwords to point Wi-Fi access, and also given Stilnikov's measure will be visible.
The description method helps to identify most of the problems with the software part.
The firmware is incorrect
The legacy of unprotected firmware on Android may remain unchanged. Installation of third-party OS versions is canceled to speed up the operation of the gadget, and the results of the phone module stop functioning.
If you wanted to reflash the device, download the firmware files only from verified forums - XDA and w3bsit3-dns.com. Do not try to flash your smartphone with the OS version of another phone, as the necessary drivers may stop functioning. Once the device has been transformed into a whole, you will continue to throw out the data.
- Press the power increase and lock buttons for 5-7 seconds. If the Android logo appears on the screen of the turned-on gadget, say “Humility is up.”
- Be captivated by the Recovery menu. Select "Wipe Data/Factory Reset", confirm Hard Reset.
- To restart your smartphone, press “Reboot system now”. Adjustment under the hour of deepening will take a lot of time.
The method is suitable for devices with corrupted firmware. The GPS module will be updated to the robot after upgrading to the factory version of the OS.
Module calibration
In such situations it is necessary to install a calibration device.
- Open the “Essential setup” program, you can easily access it from the Play Market.
- Press the compass icon on it and place the smartphone on a flat surface.
- Press the “Test” button and check 10 lines until the test is completed. Once completed, try to navigate to satellites.
Hardware problems
Cheap Chinese smartphones often have unclear satellite communication modules. Fix problems by replacing the transmission module in service center. Problems with the robot appear on both Android and iOS phones.
The internal antenna (a small thing on the board) is removed, which also contributes to the received satellite signal. Being kind to yourself is important.
Provide food to a virtual expert
If you are out of power, ask the virtual expert, the robot will help you identify the problem and show you what to do. You can talk to him about life or just have fun, it will be nice and informative!
Enter food and press Enter or Send.
Visnovok
If navigation on Android does not work or it is not possible to connect to satellites on open space, the cause is a defect in the parameters of the gadget or the electronic board has gone wrong. Repair of hardware malfunctions should only be carried out at official service centers.

Android is one of the two (other iOS) widest operating systems for tablets and smartphones Samsung Galaxy, LG, Lenovo, etc.
This is a great advantage cost-free supplements, which support GPS navigation. Unfortunately, the richness of the rich among them deprives them of the beauty.
Some of the most popular and cost-free GPS programs that run on phones running Android 6.0, 5.1, 4.4, 4.4 2 and so on are Google Maps, Yanosik, MapaMap, Navatar.
Your Android tablet or smartphone offers great capabilities and can serve as an ideal travel companion.
They can lead you directly to your place of residence with a variety of audiovisual aids.
To install the GPS module on your Android, go to what is installed on your phone.
This can be done using the GPS Test program, and then launching the global positioning system on our device.
How to check that your tablet or smartphone has GPS and turn it on
The easiest way to find out if your phone has GPS enabled and turn it on is to use the special GPS Test add-on.
If you know what the device is, you can go straight ahead until it turns on.
If you don’t care, download the program from the play market, which automatically detects the signal. After installation, you will need to repair the screen similar to the one below.
The status of the window in the upper left corner has a green color icon, which means that the GPS is turned on. If the icon is red, it is turned off - you will need to turn on the geodata.
The program will automatically take you to the geolocation option, as long as you turn on GPS (geodata). Please note that the expansion menu can be changed depending on the device and version of the operating system.
How to turn off GPS on smartphones with Android 6.0 and Android 5.1
If you have not installed the program, open “Settings” and go to the “Privacy and Security” section.
Then click on the item "Geodata".
Now just switch the right-hand dial to turn on the GPS module on your Android phone.
NOTE: there are more pictures from the Samsung Galaxy A3 smartphone on Android 6.0.1.
How to turn off GPS on a tablet with Android 4.4 and Android 4.4.2.
To complete navigation, open “Customization”, go to the “My Places” section and check the appropriate places.
Then go to the desktop, go to Menu and click the Navigation icon.
How to turn off voice gps on an android phone
From Google Play Store There are a lot of programs for GPS navigation. Unfortunately, most of them either may have limited functionality or require payment.
Open the program, get acquainted with the minds of the victor and accept them. On the next green screen, press Dali.
Then select a country from the list and click “Import” to select road maps. Then you can attract more.
Cards take up a lot of megabytes and they require additional help. mobile internet(for example, 3G) can be even more expensive. That's why it's better to use wifi.
Requiring cards can cost a lot of money, depending on the speed of your Internet connection and the size of the card. Once attracted, you turn the green screen, slide it to the left, and then tap “Let’s stop.”
In order to get rid of the vikorist program, I recommend starting from your home address (or the one you will be vikoristing the most often).
To earn money, go to head screen at the left upper codend And enter the address in the search field, and then select an item from the list and press Enter.
The card will appear. Click on the gray block with the address. In the new window, click on “Home” in the list below. In the new window, press and install, like Home.
Program to display a card. To turn around, press the icon with three lines in the lower right corner.
You will soon discover that Navfree has no additional options. For example, the route may change depending on your relationship. You can add destinations, select a tour and set up security mode.
If prices rise internationally, I recommend purchasing additional cards in the updated
Navfree parameters also allow you to switch to walking mode, which is useful during walks.
It also attracts respect night mode. However, your smartphone or tablet will not provide you with high levels of brightness.
How to turn off GPS without the Internet
If you use a GPS connection, you take data from the antenna. The accuracy and precision of such navigation is not ideal.
It is much faster when data goes directly from companions. Then navigation is carried out without the Internet.
As the least useful add-on for this is the “Navitel Navigator” add-on, it’s also a good idea to add a locator to your phone, or a paid one.
Regardless of the growing infrastructure in our country, you can still find places where drone-free Internet access is impossible, so GPS without a navigator will be limited and not only in places without Internet coverage.
Today there are a lot of programs that allow you to transfer the cards you have previously selected into your smartphone or tablet for further use.
Programs for GPS navigation and their short characteristics
- Google Maps is one of the greatest popular add-ons on the phone. I'm trying to get the most out of the Google orthomosaics on the line.
- Yanosik - works on the Internet, the service is very simple, and also allows access to streaming information about traffic jams, accidents and radars.
- MapaMap - works in offline mode (without the Internet), but most importantly corisna function Available only after an hour of prepayment.
- Navatar works online and has no essential functions.
- OviMpas - robot via the Internet. Available for Nokia customers.
