Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth

The GPS settings should be under Location Access in Android Settings.
Thanks a lot . If no CM available is there any other custom ROM which can be flashed according to my mobile specs.?
Am interested in changing ROM as i am getting NVRAM error (but wifi is connecting) and Goole play services errors.
You can try the nvram replacement (search nvram in our searchbox). If the nvram warning isn't affecting you getting WiFi, just leave it alone is my opinion.
Are you able to download the things you need from Play? If not, you can try to install gapps, but you'll need custom recovery to do that.
As far as ROMs, you'll be lucky to find it. You have an MTK6577 Generic Samsung clone. Not many developer's are going to be spending time making custom firmware for it. You can search needrom.com. I highly recommend you backup your firmware before flashing.
If you're able to download what you need from Play. Just leave it alone is my recommendation.

Thanks for your reply.
1. Yes Wifi is working fine , i can browse the net,see videos etc. But the error message is irritating me and tried the solutions provided in this forum . Error message is still there may be new mac address for wifi is generated everytime whereas the router is expecting a fixed one.
2.I dont have any issues with Play store, but some other google apps like you tube , google Keep need Play store services and when i instal play store services , it throws up Shared user id error. I am able to download apps from stores without any problem. How do i find out suitable Gapps for my phone? is it like choose according to android versioin?
3. in Needrom.com , i have to select rom according to model. Which model my phone (MTK6577 Generic Samsung clone) would be nearest match?

3- I don't recommend you change your ROM. Unless you're absolutely 100% sure you have the correct one, or you're fairly sure and have a solid backup. A 'nearest match' will likely brick your phone or at the very least leave you with components not working. You can try searching 'alps samsung clone' at needrom.
4- Highly recommend the next time you purchase a China phone that you purchase a well known model. I'm not trying to be rude. I'm trying to save you some future aggravation.
