Hi. My CHUWI HiPad X with Andtoid 11 often loses satellites due to a weak GPS module. Does anyone know how to fix this? Is there any patch?

Hi, I recently purchased a Chuwi HiPad XPro with Android 13. I notice the same issues…difficulty acquring a satellite fix, difficulty maintaining a fix, and excessive drift. Part of the issue is that the GPS chip uses GPS, Glonass, Galileo, and BeiDou simultaneously. User has no ability to control or manage this. Also need GPS chip to remain powered up even when the app that needs location while it’s running isn’t in focus.
