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.
