Today, AGPS Patch has reached a total number of 28 officially supported devices.

Support was added for the Asus Transformer TF101, Samsung's Galaxy Nexus, Samsung's Galaxy S I9000, and HTC's One X.

I predicted that companies would get wiser and start providing properly built stock ROM's for GPS usage. That was incorrect. I'm willing to research and work with people to bring more devices into the fold.

There have been millions of downloads of my personal xtra.bin data and tens of millions of queries submitted through the DNS pool I maintain for Stratum II time servers. I lost track of the number of ROM's that have incorporated this patch. In fact, v3.x began 11 months ago and has brought worldwide help to the masses.

And remember, I don't have to release new versions of this patch locally because it has been so fine-tuned. But, I'm always working on the xtra.bin data almanac and the Stratum II time servers to keep this thing going strong.

To the few that have donated to support the many, thank you very much.

If anyone would like to continue to support this project

for growth in more devices and continual data provisioning, please consider donating as well.

Jellbean problems

While my ATT Galaxy Note on ICS was superb, the fix does not work on the same device with JB. Of course, I know JB is a hacked up version etc., but just for other folks who wonder JB is a no go in my hands. It says it sees 23 sats but fails to "use" any - no bars at all in GPS Test app.

My 2 cents.....

Duly noted.

I apologize that my use phraseology as an insistence to start reading is not to be tolerated.

Listen everyone, I have seen an extreme increase in lazy, noob-like behavior across my numerous threads. It has gotten very old and I see no reason why I should volunteer to endure such repetitive behavior.

99.999999999% of all questions are answered in some way in the OP post. Read it before asking questions as it just is very insulting otherwise.

I do not force you to pay to help me offset the costs I incur each month and have graciously incurred for around two years now. No, I just ask you read and think. It's insulting to me to have my explanations ignored.

I'm sincerely contemplating a long vacation from all XDA support threads for my work.

I've had issues trying to flash the patch with newer recoveries, I kept getting a failure with error 0, which I'd never seen before. I updated the flashable zip with a different 'update-binary' and it works great. I've flashed it on my Nexus 7 and my updated Skyrocket successfully.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] crypted:
That's an issue that I don't care about. Why? 100+ versions of recoveries and I make zero money and rarely a donation to cover part of expenses...

I provide multiple installation methods in the OP so people can get around such problems. Three methods of installation are outlined and have been since September 2011. :eek:

No worries, I was just explaining for the masses to see my logic. But, they probably won't read it anyway. :confused:

Success.

Running CM10 nightlies on my skyrocket. I had to use method #2 for install (other 2 failed). I first tried the Google nl-ssl; however, that would not lock for me (tried for a few hours). I ended up using the ATT trunk and that worked. Only odd thing like others have noted is that it first puts me in the middle of the ocean, but in a few seconds it locks to where I actually am. So not a big deal.

Thanks for the patch!

And with Method 3 i got ''Status 0'' error, so i finally had to use the Method 2 and it worked :victory:

Re: AGPS Patch Galaxy S II 3.1 & 2.2 | GET BACK TO RAPID GPS LOCK, CAN LOCK MORE SATS

Patch is awesome. I just wanted to say (and admittedly I didn't read every reply to see if it was addressed) the way I got around status 0 was to simply wipe dalvik and re flash.. Worked like a champ.

That aside thing works great, something I won't catch myself without ever again
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Darbley:
I think it's working, but not well?

When I use maps at work it locks on (per notification bar), but it shows me about 200 yards from where I am and has a pretty large ring around me. When I use it at home it tosses me about 3 miles north east of me and does the same.

When using GPS Status it doesn't lock on at all. I've done method 2 and 3 (currently on method 3).

I am running slim rom.

Edit: also there are no ro.ril.agps in my build prop editor...

Re: AGPS Patch Galaxy S II 3.1 & 2.2 | GET BACK TO RAPID GPS LOCK, CAN LOCK MORE SATS

Hey, the reason you are getting a lock a few miles away is that you have the GPS setting for cell tower positioning enabled.

Im on slim rom too and I have the same issue with this patch. Personally I think it's a glitch with the rom. I'm waiting for the next slim rom to be released before trying again.

Otherwise, just odin back to stock and flash to your choice of rom.

TopNTP - the app.

We need bèta testers. Hopefully we can get some useful feedback to optimize this app. The patch itself has been proven to work, we just need to know for as much as possible devices if we can a) really install the patch and b) if the app is sort of clear in its use.

Get it on Google Play!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rpr69:
I'm willing to try the app, does it do anything different than the patch, technically?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] crypted:
Not really, but it gives more optionality instead of being strict on one setting per flashable ZIP.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] IT Rider:
I'm willing try as well. I have always had problems on my skyrocket under the stock rom and cm10.x rom. The patch has worked well in the past; however, I have always had to use the ATT version since the Google No SSL seems to not lock me anywhere near my location (I have read the posts about this). I'll give the app a try and report back.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] sudisk:
Re: AGPS Patch Galaxy S II 3.1 & 2.2 | GET BACK TO RAPID GPS LOCK, CAN LOCK MORE SATS

I would try the app as well since every time I install a new version of my favorite Rom, it erases my GPS configuration and my first lock takes ages.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Zatta:
The ATT (and LG, TMobile and Sony) variants are not yet implemented in the app. They will be shortly though. Feel free to try the Google (with SSL) profile instead, or wait a couple of days.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] IT Rider:
Re: AGPS Patch Galaxy S II 3.1 & 2.2 | GET BACK TO RAPID GPS LOCK, CAN LOCK MORE SATS

I ended up loading the Google no ssl. The first lock took a couple minutes and after the phone was idle subsequent locks take time but not as long. My wife's tmobile s2 running cm10 locks in about 10 seconds. I don't know if my phone has a hardware issue or what, but it always takes forever unless I have perfect clear line of sight.

When it locks I'm good though. This app makes the application of the patch simple. So far it has been very easy to understand and use. Nice job!

Re: AGPS Patch Galaxy S II 3.1 & 2.2 | GET BACK TO RAPID GPS LOCK, CAN LOCK MORE SATS

I tried a couple profiles and agree that the Google one seems the best for me. I must have a hardware problem or something because without line of sight i cannot get a lock and after a couple hours of not using the gps, each time I try it takes about 5 min to lock. Anyone have thoughts about my random issue? I have tried the notes from the OP and that does not seem to help. Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Zatta:
Update is on the play store right now. The AT&T build is back for you now, although the nameing scema has changed a bit for clarity.

Re: AGPS Patch Galaxy S II 3.1 & 2.2 | GET BACK TO RAPID GPS LOCK, CAN LOCK MORE SATS

No but I figured what my phone problem was. I read the OP over again several times. I then wanted to check and verify that I had the proper ril statement in my build prop. It was missing completely.

I inserted the required entry ro.ril.def.agps.mode=1 and restarted. Within in seconds I had multiple locks inside. Worked great. Also, I changed profiles. The default global with derek and Google setup worked great.

---------- Post added at 11:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:17 PM ----------

Thanks. I just posted what the problem with my phone has been. I was missing the build prop entry ro.ril.def.agps.mode=1

Is there a way for the program to check for this command when it installs the script and if not detected insert it? I do not know the code between roms, but that may fix gps for many users such as myself.

Keep up the good work. I'll continue to test the various features, especially now that my gps works again!

Hey guys I kind of partially fixed the facelock app for the xoom for ICS

Whats working

Everything related to setting the facelock is working ie scanning your your face through the camera and the alternative unlock you choose ie Pattern or Pin

Whats not working

When you want to unlock the device, it has only the option of the alternative method you chose

How did I do it

Mixed the library files from the recent Transformer Prime ICS OTA update zip file

and the Nexus S Facelock mod...

Download Link
