I manually modified my gps.conf to match what the patch seemed to do, in any case here's two screenshots after I applied the changes of it showing 12 satellites (though not sure if was locked in since no accuracy reading or speed reading), and one showing 11 satellites with speed/accuracy showing.

And one with the best accuracy I could get as of yet.

I didn't think to get charts of it prior to the AGPS fix, mainly because I didn't think of doing so til after I noticed GPS was much snappier than before.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] crypted:
So you aren't using my patch, yet asking why others do what they do? Man come on.

You could at least scour the thread where I discuss what mine does in comparison which is technically a lot better than the CONF you just pasted to.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] zofox:
No one? I can't rally understand what i have to do :what:

It states plainly that I recommend the Google No-SSL for all phones. It further states that the others are just for fun with variations in the SUPL as discussed in the Notes thoroughly.

Lastly, the Notes inform that I cannot guarantee it will work with CM because a lot of CM nightlies have errors. But, many people use it successfully with good CM versions. It's a 50/50.

Thanks. I do this everyday. I respond to 70-80 people all over with the same questions that are always previously answered. I think I get no more than two novel questions a month. And, no-one donates to show appreciation either.

Anyone interested in the success of this patch:

This week the xtra.bin file has been served 142316 times at a total of 5366.21 megabytes of transfer. It has been regenerated 149 times this week as well to stay accurate. The week is based on Sunday at 0001 PST if memory serves.

Worked great!

Desire Z running CM 7.2 stable. Saunalahti Finland.

Never actually had any problems so i figured to try it out for fun. Had 4-6 satellite locks from my balcony before the patch. After flashing and trying again got 10-12 locks. To me it looks like it's working! :good: :cool:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] =JKT=:
Just started having issues locking GPS the other day. Flashed it. Instant lock.

Thanks so much!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] la.ouiche:
For so long I use Andromadus betas, and had always have to switch off anf on gps to get it work (annoying when you drive of course).

Now with this patch gps lock so fast, it never get lost again and it's insanely precise ! I love when it's like that, day and night !

Gracias for all comments on success. Glad it's working for you.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] chan1628:
First of all.... big thx for this patch

I didn't really test the "default" a-gps settings from mimicry, but I flashed the google non-SSL v3.1 (method 3) and then I did some testing and I was able to get gps lock in 5secs, with 12 sats locked. The number of sats locked do fluctuate up and down, so 12 was my peak when I took the screenshot... but after leaving gps status running for about 10min, I was always getting at least 6 satellites

So once again, thx for the hard work

"there is no spoon"
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] crypted:
Satellites will fluctuate. This is because it makes intermediate locks on satellites that are out of range for the most accurate reading to get you the quickest reading possible. Continued use will drop those for the more reliable satellites in the sky view. So, that's one big trick to get a quick and decently accurate reading - use all sats even if they aren't fully in view. :)

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.

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!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] riahc3:
I was going to install the patch right now but thought "Damn, pushing and plugging in to hoop up ADB....dont really want" But there is a app now?? GREAT!

Testing on 4.2.2 for the Desire Z. Ill come back if anything goes terribly wrong :P
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] riahc3:
OK, I ran the app once and it seemed to work. But now again no GPS lock. Strange.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] CaptainKelley:
Thanks to the awesome power of Google, I found the path to the "UAString" setting.

Many posts on XDA are a little more advanced than NOOB that refer to this setting.

Why would you want to have the browser default to desktop view? Because we have big screens and most mobile sites are HUGE on this screen. This post is not about auto zoom.

Open the Default Browser, type about:debug in the address bar.

Open the menu in the upper right hand corner.

Open settings.

Bottom left panel, open debug.

Third down on the right, open UAString.

Choose desktop from the popup menu.

"What did I just do?" You set the browser to identify the tablet as a desktop. The internet is so smart that it displays pages according to the type of device requesting the page. But internet thinks Android is a mobile platform and sends you a mobile view by default. Pretty cool, huh? So now you've outsmarted the internet. Sit back and enjoy.

PS: I did search the forum. I couldn't find out how to "set the UAString", thus, the new thread.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vypor87:
Well documented. Props! Btw this should work for all if not most android devices and the stock browser. People may choose to do this if they don't want to have several different browsers.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sdynak:
cool find but why can't you just select "request desktop site" from the menu? I already had that selected and desktop was already enabled in the debug settings.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] CaptainKelley:
Seems like that box is website dependant. If you go to another site, you have to check it again, like it's cookie or cache dependant.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
So this method sticks after browser is shutdown or device reboots? Or will these need to be applied every time?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sdynak:
ok.. yhea I do see that.. maybe it stays by website .. have not played with enough to see when it does stick or not.. hopefully this will.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Arun01:
I'll just stick to ICS browser +.They got it right the 1st time.:cool:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jordache16:
I believe you have to request desktop site every time you open a new tab in the ICS browser, which is quite annoying if you always want to open websites in 'desktop' mode.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] morphiend:
even with the ua string set to desktop it would still bring up mobile versions of sites for me all the time. quite annoying.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiberian41:
Hi guys. I recently managed to replace the touch screen on my X5A-G, so I've been testing some roms out, including a CM7 GB rom. Anyway, at some point my serial number and macc address has been over written. I've tried spoofing the macc address, and I've reflashed with FWDN tool, but that doesn't write the serial or macc to my tab. The Macc address is being written to a softmac file, though.

The FWDN tool lets me enter my WiFi MAC Address (OUI: 0x[first 6 chars MAC), NIC: 0x(last 6 chars MAC), and over write my serial number, and confirms Device's SerialNumber : XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX@õÅ[FWDN during flash, and in the log file, (see: X5A-G_fwdn_log1_20120128). But after boot up, it is missing, getprop shows the following: [ro.serialno]: [].

Is my assumption correct that this is happening because the lk.rom/bootloader is locked? Would appreciate any advice on unlocking lk.rom and/or bootloader please.

Also, after playing about with toggling Airplane mode/shutdown/restart, the WiFi service started on boot a couple of times, and the second time I was able to log into my router, (see: 20120128 dumpsys wifi (wifi started)).

Connection lasted about half an hour (until reboot), but I couldn't browse in Stock Browser or Dolphin. Getting the connection back isn't straight forward. It can come back after toggling of airplane and rebooting, once, or trying it many times.

I'm not sure if this is related to airplane mode/wifi sleep policy, missing serial number, or both.

This particular model of HSG-X5a (G11) does root with tools such as z4root. SU has to be pushed and permissions set from ADB.

[HTC Rezound] remmy5r:
you might have to sign out of the htc mail app....
[HTC Rezound] gsgleason:
Make sure you don't have both a 'google account' and a 'gmail account'

Also, check for gmail added to the email app.
[HTC Rezound] ih8mydroid:
Go to:

Settings > Accounts & Sync

Click on "Google"

Uncheck "Sync Gmail"

This will stop syncing gmail and only the red/white gmail icon will appear from now on.

Alternatively, you can remove the sync from Gmail as well to only see the grey notifications from new email.
[HTC Rezound] Bigbootyman:
Actually, I've noticed the same issue and it's because you have signed into both of the HTC mail and Google Mail apps. Choose which one you like the best (Google Mail seems to push faster) and then select settings. Here you can turn off the notifications.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] slef2003:
Hi Folks,

Received a new gold prime today,

I connected the tablet to the dock and charged for a full eight hours (was definitely keeping this one). Updated to ICS and the camera update and tehn did a factory reset to ensure nice vanilla install.

Been loading a few apps, and setting up email etc etc whilst the batteries were charging and all seemed hunky dory. I then took the prime and teh dock into another room and when I put teh prime back into the dock it did not recognise the dock (did not notice until typing did not appear on screen) Oh i thought thats odd what is happening here as It had been connecting earlier. After a bit of troubleshooting it appears that :

If the dock is not connected to the power supply there is no connection between the tablet and teh dock.

If the dock is connected to the power supply and I connect the tablet, it is recognised immediately.

If I connect the dock when the dock is not powered it does not recognise the tablet, however the second I connect the dock to the power supply the tablet immediately connects with the dock!!

One further observation is that when charging it feels as if the dock is vibrating ever so slightly, but as far as I am aware the only moving parts are the keys on the keyboard and there is not a transformer in the dock as the mains (wall) plug carries out this function !!

Any thoughts or suggestions?

My initial thought is to be seeking a replacement item straight away (bit of a bugg** as waiting on a refund from amazon for a grey prime that I returned today)

Please do not bother with sarky comments about asus as there are enough threads like that, I am really seeking to find out if anybody else has seen a similar issue.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] theeggman:
I've not heard of anybody else with this particular problem.

As much as I hate to say it, looks like you might need to either RMA (or return) it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Danny-B-:
Mine is similar but slightly worse !

My dock connects mebe 1 in 10 times and works ok ... i have tried connecting whilst the power cable is in etc about 500 times now and its random when it decides itll work or not.

I think its a battery fault, but i've already requested RMA and itll be picked up tomorrow.

Bad thing is that its already sold out now, so i'll end up waiting forever for another one :(

My gyroscope is also FUBAR ... screen rotation, glowball, riptide all do nothing (and yes i have checked screen autorotate toggle ... a million times :) )
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] armukhtar:
Im on the same boat..C1 batch with 9.4.2.11 firmware...no root
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] slothita:
Bad dock.

I too have very similar issues. It arrived yesterday, I got straight back on the phone after reading similar problems on here and it got collected by courier this morning. I bought mine from eBuyer UK.

I also spoke to Asus technical support, who said I could quite happily send just the dock back to them for repair, but denied to acknowledge that it is a known fault with the devices.

To save time and possible problems, I just sent the whole thing back to eBuyer for a full refund. Plan to get my next one from a store so I can exchange it same day if I get another faulty one. Should the next one be faulty, I won't be purchasing another.

Best of luck to those with the issue, it's soul destroying sending back the device you've anticipated for long, especially when the main tablet seems to work fine.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] armukhtar:
good for you..too bad over here we dont have this such refund policy..the most one to one exchange within 1 week which most of the shop very reluctant to do..i thi cases no stock for replacement too

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] slef2003:
Hi Kaiser,

I had read the thread you mentioned, but at teh time I posted this Q my problem seemed to be different as teh dock would only not work when it was on battery power....It was absolutely fine when connected to the mains......however as time has progressed the dock has become even more temperamental and is now failing some of the time when it is connected to the mains.

Asus support suggested that I return to shop ( I had already submitted an RMA) and given some of teh problems that folks in countries outwith the EU are having I am suddenly feeling glad of the EU as AFAIR this legislation was EU inspired .

OT Mind you I am not very happy with teh EU commissioners signing up for the copyright treaty and hope the Elected EU parliament throws it out!! LOL

Sup I know there is a hack for ext4 on the nexus s but haven't seen anything for the NS4G. Is it the same hack or what? If so it seems a little complicated to get going with the tutorial given. Does anybody have a better tutorial or if there is a different hack for the 4g can you direct me to it please? Much appreciated.
[Nexus S General] simms22:
not sure what "ext4 hack" youre talking about, but there is an ext4 mount script. itll give you a little speed/performance kick overall. but its not really a hack, its a fix. type this in a terminal emulator app..

su(press enter)

mount -o remount,noauto_da_alloc /data /data(press enter)

youll have to type it in after each reboot. or you can use an app to run it after each boot. most custom kernels already include it or some version of it, stock doesnt include it.
