Once again, since you seem intent on ignoring these things..
Variable performance
The GPS system includes the chip in your device as well as the satellites above the Earth. So even if your device is in the same place and the same setting as before, it may behave differently from one day to the next. Typically, the device needs to receive signals from about 5 satellites to get an accurate estimate of its position. With the changing position of the satellites, changing weather patterns, and the changing nature of the Earth's outer atmosphere, there are enough parts of the GPS system outside of your direct control and observation that it is difficult to make conclusions about what specifically is causing inconsistent performance. We recommend you try repeatedly before making a judgement about the best ways to work with your device's GPS in your setting.
Tips: Improving phone GPS performance
Turn phone off/on
Turn satellites off/on
Perform an "AGPS reset": Install the App GPS Status & Toolbox, then in that app, Menu -> Tools ->
Manage A-GPS State -> Reset, and then Menu -> Tools -> Manage A-GPS State -> Download.
