[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JeremyNSL:
If you were a bit silly like me, perhaps you flashed the JB OTA on your Telus HOX before you rooted, unlocked, got SuperCID and S-Off. I didn't have much luck searching the forum for exact steps on how to get that stuff after taking the OTA. All the info is here, but I was confused what applied to my Telus phone and what would work even after the JB OTA. So I figured I'd detail my steps here in case someone else wants a detailed guide. Obviously the credit for everything below goes to the original authors of the techniques. I'm just linking stuff. :)

Unlock

1.Register at HTCDev and follow the directions to unlock your bootloader. Its pretty straightforward. You don't need to download the whole huge 300+ Android SDK. You can just get the adb-fastboot package from this thread.

Flash Recovery

I flashed TWRP with one-click via this AIO toolkit. There is probably tons of other ways to do it.

Root

Not sure its possible to root the stock JB unless you install a different ROM. So I did a system reset in TWRP and the flashed the Viper XL ROM. Its pre-rooted.

SuperCID

Its quite easy - just follow this guide exactly.

S-Off

Follow this guide and you shouldn't have a problem.

Once you have all that, you can downgrade your touch firmware. The reason to do this is if you want to install AOSP-based ROMs like CyanogenMod or AOKP. I haven't done that yet because I'm pretty happy with ViperXL. If you want to stick with Sense-based ROMs it isn't necessary to downgrade.

As a final note, once you've got ViperXL and S-Off I'd highly recommend trying the ElementalX Kernel.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ChronoReverse:
You can. I was able to root my stock JB (had to install SuperSU manually) after installing the custom recovery through fastboot.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] rkoforever90:
does this work on ONE XL international version.i have 3.17.708.5 software version on my one xl.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] iElvis:
It should work on any S4 dual-core One XL except on AT&T.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ChronoReverse:
But not the ATT version because they're locked from HTCdev.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] iElvis:
Whoops--corrected.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] coldrazor:
if i have the unlock token i can root 3.18 AT T ota?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ChronoReverse:
Yup, if you managed to unlock the bootloader then you're clear to go all the way to s-off (and you should).
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Golden-One:
I have a htc one S , but this SuperCID doesn't work on my device.

Does it work after the JB OTA with the One X ?

I'm unable to use my Phone without using custom ROMs, 'cause I can't flash any RUU (CID is T-MOB101).

(I had battery problems after JB OTA-Update)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ChronoReverse:
This isn't the One S forum. I'd advise asking in the appropriate forum.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gothicasshole:
Ok i can bearly find any info i'm sorry if im in the wrong place but the one x plus from at@t just got an ota is it still posible to root after this update? I tryed hysoon200's tool kit but the htc dev website claims my unlock key is too short i coppied it perfectly several times infact the last time i almost bricked it the screen was black for a half hour and after 2-5 mins holding the power button it booted back up can someone please point my retarted a$$ to the rite direction?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JeremyNSL:
Hey, the One X+ is a totally different phone so I can' t really say what's the best direction. You are best off posting in the One X+ forum.

i wound up following the htc steps and manually made a folder and it gave me the correct token so needless to say it's unlocked flashed the su.zip made a nandroid and now i got full root :) thanks for your help thoe but now i'm looking at roms i keep hearing viper is the thing to have but i'm impartial to cyanogen so i'm looking for unofficial portss i wish they would crack s-off so i could do a normal flash without the dang adb lol

If I do this, will I lose my SIM unlock? I am using an unlocked Telus One X with Fido. Thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
You can s-off. You just need to change yiur cid to 11111111 first. Aosp roms are all in the original android development section of this forum.

I believe carrier unlock is done at the bootloader layer so it should not affect your sim unlock
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vuga:
I just unlocked the bootloader. Now I want to flash TWRP, but do I need to run the X Factor exploit in the AIO toolkit? Thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vuga:
Just a quick question, I did all the steps including downgrading the touch firmware (thanks for the help!), but I just have one more question. I was looking at CM 10.1 ROM and it said and update to RUU 3.18 is required. How can I check my RUU? Do I need to update? Thanks for any help.

Just checked my RUU, it's 3.17.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
3.17 is fine. If that cm10.1 doesn't boot, ruu again, flash recovery, downgrade touchscreen and flash it again.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gothicasshole:
I can get s-off?? On the at&t one x plus?? I got the forums mixed up I don't have the one or the original one x so I'm just making sure this can be done one the one x plus?

Okay, got them installed using PDAnet. You can lock this thread.

GPS.conf Profiles

This app does installs a customized gps.conf file for your GPS. It has several different profiles to choose from. We recommend to use the default Google profile but it is up to you. Apart from the general profiles, you can customize the one profile you choose to fit your own needs.

NTP Servers

Derek Gordon maintains a special NTP server pool for you. Dispite what everyone thinks, it is not necessarily the one closest to you which is the best. We consider Derek Gordon's server to be the best option to choose because it has the best data and is most frequently updated.

For more information about the NTP server check out the "About this app" section found under the settings of this app. Also, feel free to visit derekgordon.com for more in depth information.

aGPS Alamanacs

Derek Gordon maintains a special aGPS almanac for devices using Qualcomm or similar chipsets. This xtra.bin data file is updated every 30 minutes and is located on a content delivery system maintained by the generous donations of ther userbase.

For more information about the NTP server check out the "About this app" section found under the settings of this app. Also, feel free to visit derekgordon.com for more in depth information.

Donations

To maintain the server we need money. Donations through this app will be divided between Derek Gordon (Crypted) and Zatta on XDA.

Each star costs 2 Euro and will reduce the waiting time before you can install the patch. 0 star users wait 20 seconds, 1 star users 10, 2 star users only 5 and 3 star users and Premium users can install immediately.

You can become a premium user for only 5 Euro. This is a discount of 1 euro compared to a three star user! We choose this method to allow every one to use all features of this app and because we believe in XDA developers users. Please, don't leech!

Backup and Restore

On the first run of this app a backup is made on your SD card. Don't remove it because a backup is only made during the first run (or at an update if you choose to remove it anyway) and no other backup is found on your SD card.

ROM Updates

The patch this app provides is located on your /system partition so every time you do update your ROM the patch is overwritten and you will have to redo the patch.

Unless you are using a Cyanogenmod based ROM and your rom has addon.d support. In that case a script will be placed in the addon.d directory to preserve the patch.

It can be disabled in the app's settings but is enabled by default.

ASUS Users

On ASUS roms a typical file is present at /system/etc/gps, namely the gpsconfig.xml file. This app pathes that file as well, to be specific the PeriodicTimeOutSec parameter. Of course a backup is made of this file as well.

Get it on Google Play!

I use GPS Status app for testing my GPS, and after installing this app, it needed <10 secs to find my exact location.And I wasn't even under the clear sky.It usually takes min or two to get lock.The thing is, when I opened maps, it wasn't so precise.The circle was around 1km big.Thats strange.I will test more tomorrow though.

Can you explain exactly how this app helps to get quicker gps lock?

Re: [APP][4.0+] TopNTP 0.9.2 - Achieve Rapid GPS Locks, Use more GPS Sats, Reliable N

I can't do that exactly because there are many variables that are tweaked. This has been a long process, Crypted spent roughly 2 years experimenting with the gps.conf file and maintains 30 (!!) threads for various devices all over XDA.

The main thing though is the excellent ntp server he maintains.

Thanks to all downloaders over the past two weeks. We are now on a steady 400 active installations of the app, that is a rate of 66 percent of the total downloads which is great!

What makes me even more proud is that I didn't get any bug reports so far..

Did it create an backup of the new file than? For which device?

Edit: can you sent a copy of your original /system/etc/gps.conf? Or has your rom the conf file somewhere else or something strange like that?

No it didn't create the backup of original file. just the folder was created in the sdcard.The new file is created in system/etc folder. I will try to upload original GPS confg file from ROM dump. I'm on micromax a110 device. It is a rebranded Chinese phone available in Indian market

Just to give some more info if that will help. I'm using an extremely large host file to block ads. not sure if this has any connection.

Been testing this on a Nexus 4 with Stock ROM and Franco Kernel. I've always had spotty GPS (if at all, specially inside buildings if I don't turn On WiFi). Yesterday, it locked me inside my house without WiFI after reboot in 3-4 seconds. Today, it has been kind of spotty. I flashed the General settings with no specific Country. I live in Puerto Rico. Do you recommend some specific settings?

Yes it is rooted & even the GPS config file is getting updated. In the setting I choose Asia. India & Google profile
[Android Apps and Games] crypted:
Come on now, don't be so vague...

When it doesn't work, where are you? When it works, where are you?

Do you have any non-standard Nexus 4 ROMs installed? Any other GPS tweaks installed?

If it locks at a previous location, it sounds like GPS isn't being activated and it uses cached coordinates.
[Android Apps and Games] PRGUY85:
I have Stock ROM rooted with Franco Kernel, nexus 4. It doesn't work as well inside buildings which is to be expected. Yet I would like to have at least an estimate of my position. Couldn't this be done with network data? No other mods installed.

I'm currently at home with WiFi off. The stock GPS icon shows my location is set however GPS status app nor Google maps Can lock on a location.

Unbelievably excellent app. My Nexus 7 (2013) always struggled to obtain GPS lock, sometimes 3, 4, or even more minutes to obtain lock under clear sky, even with fresh AGPS data. After patching using just the default settings, I am consistently getting locks at 3 or 4 seconds even indoors on the upper floor of my house and I am consistently getting 13 through 30 foot accuracy. I can't recommend the app enough, it makes an astonishing improvement.

Well, on both lower options I can't see my device or Samsung (generic), just generic at all.

As you've said, generic is good, but we, users, always think 'specific' is better :o
[Android Apps and Games] Zatta:
Okay, I see. That is because no-one made those profiles (yet), the profiles you see are all the profiles we have in the database.

The history of the app is, in short, as follows: Derek Gordon made these patches/profiles a long time ago and he did setup his ntp server. What I later did, for convenience reasons, was bundle his patches in one database and wrote an app around it.

[Android Apps and Games] smint86:
Are these patches considered "up-to-date"? I was playing around with some of them recently, also comparing the "stock" gps.conf of my device with the one provided by this patch (generic).

I'm have a OnePlus One, currently using unofficial CM13.

You can check the stock config over here: http://pastebin.com/gcv3qxUB

Compared with the TopNTP config, there are some additional lines, for example:

GPS Capabilities bit mask

LTE Positioning Profile Settings

NMEA provider

and some more...

Also, some general settings differ, like the INTERMEDIATE_POS=0. As the last of version of this patch is from end of 2014, is this still considered useful for Android M?
[Android Apps and Games] Zatta:
Yeah, well, what can I say. There might be better configurations. On the other hand, reviews on the play store still show that this (our better said one of these) configuration still does a good job.

It is easily tested though.

Help on how to use this APP to sort out LOCK ON issue with LG G2 D802 phone

Hi,

Can anyone help me on how to use this APP to sort out LOCK ON issue with LG G2 D802 phone? I am not very technically minded, so would be good to get a step by step instruction on what I need to do on my LG G2 phone to install and run this app so that it works?

I have tried just opening app and keeping default settings and hitting install and choosing "create files and reboot". But after that, it doesn't do anything. Just goes back to original screen in the App. So feel like I haven't done something right?

Any help will be hugely appreciated??!

Thanks,

I have been having issues with my GPS for some time and after much research, someone pointed me to your app. I installed the app and, after it freezing a couple times, got it running and set up. However, when I clicked "Create files and reboot", it did nothing for a few moments then came up with a "TopNTP isn't responding" message. I did it again and tried the option without the reboot, same result. I tried a couple setting configurations. No luck.

I'm using a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 on T-Mobile running CM 12.1

I'm not too good at these sorts of techy things. I always say that I know just enough to be dangerous, so I can follow instructions pretty well and can do some technical things, but ask me to see if the app has root access or to install an apk or anything like that and I will need a guide of some sort. Just FYI. That said, I really need to get my GPS working. It's been a constant thorn in my side.

Thank you
