GPS Chip manufacturers and infos on Android tablets I'm working on some GPS tracking apps on Android tablets. We found out that depending on the type of phone / tablet we use, we can have results ranging from really accurate to really bad.

Those tests were conducted on the same track, with GPS only location - so I'm pretty sure the GPS chip quality is of great importance in those results differences.

Is there any way to access GPS chips manufacturers or infos depending on device models ? An app, command ... any means.
I didn't find anything up to date over the internet.

Thing is : nowadays gps modules in mobile devices get embedded with other components such as gpu / cpu / wifi receiver / ....

So what you have to do is googling for "cpu details Galaxy Tab 10.1" for example, and then see what's included in this particular kind of chip.

Anyway I started a list for my own personal use, feel free to use / amend it : https://github.com/mhicauber/android-devices-gps-chip-manufacturers
