Well his friend get lock less than 25sec without data (no-agps) mind you.. In fact no sim card was present in that phone and it get lock in a room! How do u define that? Since 'hardware fix' by samsung simply not possible for latest batch (based on your thought), i guess his phone is the luckiest out of millions of sgs!
Btw, on the papago display showing 15m, that is not the accuracy my dear. If you zoom out, the number would increase! from 15m>17m>20m>25m>30m>40m>60m>80m. This number indicates how far the distance you are viewing from the actual map. If you are using gps test, then the accuracy (meters/feet) itself is the actual accuracy. Don't try to confuse yourself with it. Our sgs can get accuracy of up to 5m only. Cannot get below than that. On normaly condition, i do get accuracy ranging from 5m to 30m (but mostly its on 10m) Depends on the weather too.

ZZZ i know that already !!!! Im just using Papago as an example.... Since my accuracy is around 10-15...and i got good positioning when i use google maps but papago to me is not as accurate as what the other user here that say it is accurate.... and if you read through the thread... alot of users also claim that papago isnt the best chocie for GPS @ android....Btw, on the papago display showing 15m, that is not the accuracy my dear. If you zoom out, the number would increase! from 15m>17m>20m>25m>30m>40m>60m>80m. This number indicates how far the distance you are viewing from the actual map.

So im just using that as an example that not all user might have the same thought and they think that their GPS for newer batch is better for one reason or another... or easily satisfy .... and i already knew about the zoom in and out thing .... Why the hell do you need to mention it?? i never state anything about it when i was replying to u.... and if its because its due to my old post... you should also know that theres a post acknowledging this matter....
Back to the 1st paragraph.... thats what he claims .... it might real it might be false or it might be heavily exxagerated you would never know..... cause my friend SGS set dated around end of december ... is the EXACT same performance as what i felt in my SGS .....
You might say he no sim card.... there maybe other option that he might forgot to mention like wifi?? even so.... maybe its a HOT START mistaken to be COLD START ... you might also wont know...
Or there might be possibility that hes in a right place or position for the GPS to work (just like what i mention about my Stock SGS experience)
