In the first place among all the reasons is the location of satellites at the given moment. If the necessary information has already been outdated or there is no one at all, then the "cold start" of the device is carried out when the coordinates are determined from 10 minutes and more.

It is needed to download information about the position of satellites with special servers. To do this, you must connect to the Internet and the address of the servers where these data are located. Here, then many owners of smartphones can remain disappointed, as local servers are specified in any Chinese device.
Thus, the reason for the slow operation of GPS on most gadgets is not suitable for the country of residence of servers. Correct you can find in the GPS.conf file.
