But wondering if the mention of slow GPS fix on first paragraph of this post still applies on latest Android phones?<br /><br />Because it could be that the Android phone's GPS chipset/component has been upgraded since 2-4 years ago? Especially the low-mid budget Android phones may also be updated with better inbuilt GPS capability? If so is the Bluetooth GPS provide bit more benefit than lot of benefit in terms of accuracy and signal fix speed?Pratiknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2242164483176043543.post-3247625872340477462017-08-16T00:15:03.241+06:002017-08-16T00:15:03.241+06:00Once paired with your tablet and mock location ena...Once paired with your tablet and mock location enabled, a bluetooth GPS will be acting as if the GPS is built into your tablet.Sayedur R Chowdhuryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09844732416952706091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2242164483176043543.post-64356850759733964482017-08-15T22:03:40.537+06:002017-08-15T22:03:40.537+06:00So does the Device itself see it at a GPS device? ...So does the Device itself see it at a GPS device?
