PLEASE, DON'T USE THIS APP ON JOLLA C !!!

If you already installed it and applied, your file /system/etc/gps.conf is broken and gps will not work for you!
To fix it (as ROOT):
1. Uninstall this app:
pkcon remove sailfishos-gps-supplier
If you get error and can't uninstall, run this commands:
rpm -e --noscripts sailfishos-gps-supplier
cd /usr/share/jolla-settings/pages/gps_and_location
/bin/rm -rf plugins ActionList.qml restart_su* tools.js
pkcon install jolla-settings-system

2. Reinstall 2 packages to fix the gps.conf file:
pkcon install droid-config-l500d
pkcon install droid-system-l500d
Now it should be fixed.

----------------------------------------

This patch can change this Supplier and NTP server inside /system/etc/gps.conf file:
SUPL_HOST=supl.pos.nlp.nokia.com
SUPL_PORT=7275
To Google supplier:
SUPL_HOST=supl.google.com
SUPL_PORT=7276
Or Nokia:
SUPL_HOST=supl.nokia.com
SUPL_PORT=7275

NTP server (Europe (default), Asia and North America):
#Asia
NTP_SERVER=asia.pool.ntp.org
#Europe
# NTP_SERVER=europe.pool.ntp.org
#North America
# NTP_SERVER=north-america.pool.ntp.org
* DON'T forget to press Apply button.
* Before unapplying patch, please restore to Default first!
* Thanks to Ancelad for help.

NOTES:
* If you can't install because of this package (lipstick-qt5-tools), open terminal as ROOT and run:

[Regression due to SFOS update]
v0.1-4 fails to apply in Patchmanager (v2.3.3-10.41.1 used) under SailfishOS 2.1.1.26

Side note: v0.1-4 was applicable and working under SailfishOS 2.1.0.11 (used Patchmanager 2.3.1-10.39.1 with SFOS 2.1.0.11).
