About [root] GPS Control SiRF Donate

### ROOTED SAMSUNG GT-I9100/GT-I9100T/GT-I9100G/SGH-I777 or GALAXY NEXUS DEVICE REQUIRED ###

This tool can control the Static Navigation feature of the SiRF Star IV GPS receiver in some Samsung Galaxy phones.
This feature is by default disabled. The result is that the phone cannot be used for averaging, geocaching, architectural and other precision applications.
GPS Control can enable Static Navigation. With it enabled, the GPS chip no longer filters out location data and updates the location at 1Hz even when the device is stationary. This is required for averaging and other applications that need constant location updates.

It supports every Gingerbread firmware and already includes support for beta Ice Cream Sandwich firmwares.

Future versions will add support for more SiRF Star IV features and will enable detailed configuration of the GPS.

Works as advertised on galaxy S2. But recently changed to S3 and no longer supported :-( (Although in fairness, no idea whether it's required on s3)

UPDATE: Just two of us ever paid for this? No wonder the author is no longer helping out. :(.....................................................Works as advertised. Unlock your GPS if it is being strangled by "Static Navigation". You don't have to pay, but I would have paid 10x gladly to get this working the way it should. Have a SiRF chip GPS in your handset but this software doesn't work with it yet? Contact the author - he had my phone added within less than a day of first making contact. 5 stars.

I think this is great for people wanting to use their android device for scientific purposes but want to be able to switch back to a power saving mode. Any chance you could add toroplus 4.2.2 compatibility. Or even better, if the static navigation setting offsets are the same across driver versions would it be possible to specify the .so file from the UI.
