I used the US Midwest.zip, but had to do root explorer method.
I wonder if Toledo, Ohio would be considered mideast us or midwest...
Either way, I can't complain with a 30 sec cold lock right?

Ohio would be considered Mid-East

I had to use root explorer as well. I still don't seem to get a lock when I'm standing still outside, though. Is everyone else moving or in a car while trying it? I'll try again later when I'm in my car

Florida. T-Mobile HD2. US-MidEast file with RootExplorer method.

After phone reboot cold start - approx 5 minutes :(
Hot starts around 10-20 sec.

Downloaded A-GPS data using GPS Status app.
After phone reboot cold start - 1 minute :(
Hot starts around 5-10 sec. But then I turned off Google Maps and after 10 minutes started again in different location. Hot start - 1 minute :(

I'm glad you guys having such a good time with those gps.conf files, but I do NOT see any major difference between standard 0.us.xxxx, 1.us.xxx and google as SUPL_PROVIDER :( And I never had 5 minutes cold start :(

I'll see about making a localized file for you to try.

Hello and thanks for posting this highly modified and apparently excellent gps.conf file.

I have had GPS issues since I chose to start using Android on my HD2, and so far this modified file is not proving to fix the issue.

I only ever had GPS working briefly using the SuperRAM 1.5 and that was after an array of messing about with gps.conf, libgps.so gps.xxxxx.so, the kernel and the modules.

I am using MDJ cyanogenmod 2.6, I have replaced the /system/lib & /system/lib/hw files with "working" files but I still cannot get GPS to work. I have trawled this place for so long and tried every single fix on the site.

So, anyone who has this ROM, can you help me?

For reference, the gps.xxxxx.so file is device dependent, that is, the build.ro properties determine what the gps.xxxxx.so should say. I currently have two copies of the same file, gps.bravo.so and gps.qsd8k.so.

Don't be afraid to offer assistance, but it's quite likely i've already tried 90% of the fixes out there.



Thanks in advance to anyone who can help

Dan



EDIT:
So, after sitting with gps status on for 5+ minutes it has finally got a lock - inside too might I add. This I have no doubt is due to one or both of the following:
This edited gps.conf
copying the gps.xxxxx.so file so it exists twice under different names (bravo & qsd8k).

As for future locks I cannot be sure as i'm aware people will get one lock and never see another again.

I assume you are using the UK conf file. Try the Europe file and see how that works, and report back. Also did turn wifi on and let the GPS Status update the AGPS? Remember some places have more satellites then other regions, and we all know weather plays a part in this too.

Yes I am and I edited my post just now to say things are finally working, I also never had GPS working on this build. It's not perfect as maps doesn't find me at all, but then I am inside and it's murky as hell outside.

I will stick with the UK info for now. Considering i've never had GPS before and I had a gps.conf I had already modified myself, it appears you've fixed a problem for a lot of people.

As for the certificate line, is this generic? A google search pulls back a lot of results where people have this line in the config yet have neither the directory or file.


YET ANOTHER EDIT:
I can no longer get a GPS fix. I had one, now I can't get one at all. I have seen this error across the boards. For me there is no such thing as a "warm boot".

Thanks I just bookmarked it for later reading, but I find that information hard to believe especially if Cell service can get affected, how a satellite 35,000+ miles away isnt is odd.

I will make a localized file for you, just to try out, I'll have it by tonight, if anything changes let me know before then.


Also I have updated Post #2 with Roms I have tried this with, it would help if you everyone can tell me the roms they are using, so ones that are working I can add to the list, and also if others are using the same that might be having trouble, I can try the rom and see what might be the cause.

Well according to the link it says:
The GPS signal frequency of about 1575mhz was chosen expressly because it is a "window" in the weather as far as signal propagation is concerned

LOCAL UK ONLY GPS.CONF FILE LOCATED ON POST (#2), FLORIDA LOCAL GPS.CONF FILE LOCATED ON POST (#2)

The problem I have found with Florida and the UK is that there is very limited time servers that are active, actually florida has no time good responding time servers, but I did the best I could in short notice. Please test these out and let me know if they are any better.

Again Located in Post #2, CWR files.

Hi there, first of all thanks for the efforts you put in this.
Second of all, mind my asking, I didn't had time to test it but, from what I've understood, AGPS is still not working on gingerbread/HD2 in general, so aren't all the lines in gps.conf useless? I mean no disrespect in this, like I've said, I appreciate your efforts and it's a good step in this matter but I'm kinda confused about this.

To help you understand what I'm staying.. I still get the lines:
E/GpsLocationProvider( 124): no AGPS interface in agps_data_conn_open
E/GpsLocationProvider( 124): no AGPS interface in agps_data_conn_open

in ADB when launching GPS and at least for me, the fastest way to get a lock was always to reboot the phone with GPS and GPS Status (the app from market) on, the I would get a lock in 1-5 mins.
Also, where can I get SuplRootCert cause I don't have such a file or folder in my /etc and I see you are using it here: SUPL_TLS_CERT=/etc/SuplRootCert
I shall test this tomorrow and report back, meanwhile I'll wait for a light in my confusion :D


Best regards,
dlsniper

Thank you AD for the great job and nice explanation! What an intresting job!
I was very happy about all the good comments and gave it a try with good mood, but have to quote dkl_uk: unfortunately, same results here.
(you know... there is always a black sheep around... you got 2! :p )

I just had a 30 minutes test with 2 roms:

NAND - TyphooN CyanogenMod 7 v2.1 (ram edition)
Cold fix: never in around 15 minutes, altough it is almost the same with all NAND releases. Only in one or two froyo ones i saw some fixes but not usable at all;

SD - Copenhagen Gingerbread 2.8 (now americandroid)
Altough i had some pale reasults with this rom it is a no go with the europe gps.conf. :(

In 15 minutes i had one single fix only, it took around 10 minutes for the cold one, hot fix never happened in the next 5 minutes (phone on a chair on the balcony, in the same position my N1 fixes in 1,30 cold (worst ever) and 15 secs hot).

I didn't try further since it had almost the same behaviour as with the other nth fixes/roms i tried.
I guess for some of us it is not a gps.conf issue, it's something hardware related.

dkl_uk: is it your phone brand new or very recent? Mine is a new unit received the 4th of january. GPS works good in winmo6.5 but it's not usable in android.

Cheers.

You sir, are correct. These are the same findings I found when playing around with gps.conf a while ago. We need agps support in libgps.so, then playing around/tweaking gps.conf would do a difference (Not huge, but getting from eg. 10 to 5sec is "huge" %-wise, as other devices with working agps has done). Don't know if any other phone got the same chip as ours, but libgps.so is closed source by HTC anyway, so reverse engineering gpsdriver.dll or maybe tracking down what quickgps does in winmo may be the only way to go, correct me if I'm wrong. Not to sound disrespectful, but I'm afraid we're going to end up with a 200 pages long thread where results varies from 10sek to 5min, as it already does, and has always done for me personally using gps in android on hd2.

Its not working well for me either :( I'm situated in Boston, Mass. Tried to fix it for like 5 mins while walking on the road...it was no go...then gave up..
Somehow, I think all gingerbread users aren't able to take advantage of this settings...I'm changing my build to sense froyo one, later tonight and see how it goes...will report back tommorow :)

EDIT: I'm also doing doing GPS status AGPS data download, but it dosen't help

I already had gps status. I could get a lock within a min with that build out of the box. I was just testing to see if this would get even a quicker lock. No worries though. After all a min is short enough.

    I would like to take this time to thank everyone that has helped in making this a success, I would like to also thank Rom Makers that have felt that my work was worth adding to their roms, and also to the Users that have taken my work with my permission, and expanded on it.

    I am currently looking at adding more locations to the list soon, so keep an eye out :)

    If anyone can help my next project and is Good at programming APK's please PM me.

    12.05.12 REGIONAL VERSIONS 1.2 FINAL RELEASED!

    USA & International & REGIONAL CWR!

    UPDATE:

    I would like to thank everyone that has tried this, most of you have had very good success, and some of you have not, do understand that a rom can make the difference, as well as your location, and despite popular belief; weather.

    Greetings All,

    As some of you have know the long await GPS Script that some have been seeing me speak about. I'll explain how this has come to surface.

    As we all know since Windows Mobile we all have had issues at one time or another with the GPS working correctly. Now in Android, we find ourselves in the same boat, with GPS not working, or working some days and not so much on other days. One of the biggest complaints I think that we all have had is LONG wait times. So I went on a quest to find out exactly how this worked And some of what I found out in my opinion is surprising. It seems that as we all know the "GPS.conf" is the helpful source for our locks.

    Now I dont mean to give everyone a lesson on GPS but I am sure I'm not 100% right, but from what I have read and seen, neither is our gps.conf file. The file is a generic code and customized to use google as our source. Then we had extra options to add which again were in my book generalized but somewhat helpful. I checked this against US carriers (Such as: AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile) and found, they all had similar files doing the same thing, some claim success, and others didnt.

    One of the problems with our files is the fact its been dumbed down, to the point its TOO General, and the reason for this is cause Developers (Not referring to XDA) have done this to avoid possible errors or conflicts with other parts of the phone or software, so my opinion is they made it simple, but simple doesnt always work. We all know this to be the case cause how many times have we had generic drivers, or files that are used, so that this way "it works". The GPS basically sends signals down to earth and earth sends signals up to the Satellite to determine locations, this as we all have come to know as "PINGS". And obviously the faster the ping, the closer it is. And the closer it is, the faster the lock. The file works the same way. The generic file is using the same servers worldwide no matter were you are and are generic, so the long lock times are cause we are all using the same locations, and as well when a server is overloaded, or as I have seen too many ping requests it has a filter to deny any further requests for "x" period of time, and overloaded systems have a longer response time.

    Think of it this way, GPS's send their information to for the most part one location, and it is primarily from what I have read controled by the Navy (at least here in the states), their are 3 tiers to the GPS signal:

    1st Tier, Direct; 2nd Tier, Stratum 1; 3rd Tier, Stratum 2, All time servers. There is one more category that GPS's have, and that is they are also ATOMIC CLOCKS which sync with Earth bound Atomic clocks. So why are all the developers using only a generic script, pinging probably 1 sub-par time server expecting that they are going to get any solid results? And using only 1 time server and overloading it? So to get the best possible locks and signal the concept is to utilize every tier, to get the best possible lock. As well there is numerous commands that have been left out of the scrtipt which further enables the GPS to get a faster lock, and going through all the commands from searching the different sites, I compiled different scripts so that i could get the best possible lock.

    Big Thanks to SLBENZ for helping out with testing and giving feedback to the scripts I made and helping making the scripts the best possible to work with any region. Also thanks to WarlockW for also testing out the scripts and confirming what I was hoping to hear. Thanks to Pinnacle Another tester not part of these forums, for also testing and giving feedback. Thanks to Carl1961 and WarlockW Carl for making a CWR script for WarlockW and Warlock for allowing me to use the script. Also a Thanks and the jesture to CMYLXGO who also tested the script gave input and has my script in his rom. The Scripts are broken down into 9 Regions and they are as follows:

    Africa, Asia, Europe, Oceania, UK, South America, US Mid-East, US Mid-West (Located on post #2), and North America. Local UK Only (Post #2), LOCAL FLORIDA ONLY (Post#2), SuplRootCert (Post #2)

    The North America Script should be used by people in Mexico, Puerto Rico, Venezula, Costa Rica, and Canada. The only other person who should use this script is a person who travels to different states for work purposes, and should not be used by someone who doesnt travel often.

    Huge Thanks for Carl1961 for fixing the CWR files so they can load as intended. All files have been replaced and can now be installed using CWR.

    Install Instructions:

    1) Download the ZIP file for your region or close to your region.
    2) DO NOT UNZIP the file.
    3) Place the file on your SDCARD.
    4) DO NOT USE MAGDLR, or CWR to copy the file to your SDCard. Use either your computer, or put Android into Disk Drive mode to avoid corruption.
    5) Reboot your phone into CWR.
    6) Choose Install ZIP from Sdcard
    7) Choose install Zip file
    8) Let it run
    9) Reboot
    10) If you prefer install the GPS Status App attached to post #2
    a) If you do, hit the home key then go to settings then Display &Tools.
    b) Choose the last one "Show time to GPS fix".

    If you have Wifi turned on it will download the AGPS file which will help with the locks but is not needed.

    GPS locks will vary, There is no guarantee and I can not give you one, but based on testing, your locks should occur in the following:

    First Lock: 30 seconds to possibly 3 mins (3mins if the weather is bad, or there is something going on with the GPS sats, most occur under 80 seconds)

    Second and all subsequent locks: 4 seconds to 30 seconds. (Unless GPS is not used for more then 2 days, then refer to First Lock)

    Please also post comments of good bad or ugly, Please USE the THANKS BUTTON and use the posts for problems suggestions, or requests.

    All of the v1.1 & 1.2 files are CWR files! Since there is 62 countries that have been done, I cant attach them here. So I decided to host all of them on my own personal server. There is no waiting for files. Please if for whatever reason you dont connect just refresh and it will download.

    If you dont see your Country, please ask. As I said some countries have no choice but to use the 1.0 versions attached to Post 1 & 2. There are no time servers in every country and some countries (also not in the list) which either are restricted, or have not been maintained.

    If the files work for you, and if your feeling generous, or appreciate the hours put into the work so far, feel free to donate. Coffee does wonders to keep me awake.

    Mar.29.2011 UPDATE:

    If anyone has been keeping track of the Dev forum Post, you will see we are making progress in the GPS/AGPS development. One of the key things that has surfaced thank to MEMIN1857 is the GPSFix.0.1.apk file, which can be downloaded from his post: GPSFIX-0.1.apk. Install this on your phone, and then run it after install, there is no gui, it will download the necessary "xtra.bin" file that is needed by the GPS/AGPS, and after 30 seconds it will say fixed. This is one of the cruiel parts of the GPS that has been missing. Also I found through lots of searching you should add the following lines to the end of your GPS.conf file located in /system/etc. Add the following to the end of the file:

    AGPS=/data/xtra.bin
    XTRA_SERVER_1=/data/xtra.bin

    Also jaba_cz had a line in theory which I will post here which you can add at the end as well, all three lines will not break anything, so its safe to add this line too, I just cant confirm results as of yet:

    AGPS=http://xtra1.gpsonextra.net/xtra.bin

    Many people are working on this with alot of info I am hoping soon we will get the gps working for everyone in an acceptable manner.

    I've removed the off-topic nonsense from this thread. If you have nothing useful to contribute, then don't post at all.

    AS OF 2/18/2015 THE FTP HAS BEEN TAKEN OFFLINE.

    For anyone wishing to continue downloading the GPS files, ALL the files have been saved to a self-extracting folder and is now being hosted offsite. Clicking on the "Members Here" will take you to the new location.

    Thank you to everyone for making the GPS files a success.!

    I will look into it. It might be that the zips might have gotten compressed even though I told it not to, but you can take it out and use root explorer to copy out over. Will look at it in the morning, might have to replace the bad ones. Thanks for pointing this out.
