My brand new Zopo ZP300+ smartphone has really low GPS sensitivity. This makes satellites fix a really long task, even helping it with apps like FasterGPS.
Latest ROM (October 2012) improved it a little bit, but the issue seems to be hardware related.
While searching the web for a fix, I found a thread on a famous russian chinaphone forum, where user Ivan347 published a document with ZP300+ disassembling instructions and pictures (http://forum.china-iphone.ru/viewtopic.php?f=70&t=22006).
The issue seems to exist only on some production batches, and related to a misplaced insulating sheet.
I translated that document to English and published it here: Download PDF document
