Regarding the GPS and 911 problems with the Vibrant.
Has anyone tried reaching out to Samsung regarding these issues?
Surely this sounds naive but it wouldn't hurt to send some emails or call them and ask for help with these matters.
Didn't Cyanogen go to work for Sammy? Maybe he could petition for them to release/leak the ICS work they did do on the Vibrant.
Just thinking out loud. But maybe if the right person or organization just asked.
Hint, hint XDA.

I was running 0605 nightly today. I'm not sure if 911 is still an issue for the devs and they need feedback. Which brings me to today.
Driving down the street and saw two guys just BRAWLING in the middle of the adjacent street. Couldn't get over to them, u-turn, and I'm pulling out my phone and thinking "Damn, I sure hope 911 works!" Called 911, went to the correct dispatch center based upon my location at the time, and everything worked fine.
Turned out it was road rage with two rich guys driving nice cars, both guys gave the finger to each other, pulled over, got out, started brawling, one guy pulled a knife on the other, one went to jail for assault with a deadly weapon.
Since I'm posting....I have one of the earliest Vibrants, bought it the first day on sale. I am running the nightly 0605 stock ROM, hadn't bothered to change the kernel. I am getting GPS locks prior to deep sleep (which I didn't get with some earlier stock nightlies), but not after a deep sleep.
And, again, since I'm already posting, I want to thank all the developers for all of their hard work and giving us ROMs that have kept the Vibrant usable. I'm going to the GS3 when it's released, really just because I need reliable GPS, otherwise I'd keep the Vibrant until it died. In any case, all of the devs' work is greatly appreciated.
Finally, one last thing. I have access to a 911 dispatch center, so I can stand right in the center and test 911 functionality for anyone if that is an issue. Just PM me with details and concerns.

I'm talking to someone via email who can't call at all on WeUI nor CM9, they're in the US and on T-Mobile, so they're in the target demographic.
I suppose I didn't mention it or have it in my profile until I just updated it....I'm in the US (west coast) and on T-Mobile.

mohamobo, you sure this works? Can anyone else confirm if his kernel works as well?
New kernel for GPS testing!
Mach10.zip
MD5: 694550bb1dfdeb365d24f5eff2a948c5
Please test for GPS locks after deep sleep, and deep sleep after GPS locks, and report back here.

Yes works for me. Below my latest stock cm9 kernel compile with latest subZero init.aries.gps.rc.
Anyone please test if it works for you as well.
Tested but still GPS deep sleep deaths.
6-10 Nightly and GPS Working Great
GPS seems to work dramatically better with the 6-10 CM9 build. I've left the phone sit idle for an hour or so and GPS comes back nicely. Turned GPS off and back on and good results. I did the hardware fix bending the tab a week ago and am finally liking my Vibrant again. I bought 2 new 1800 ma batteries since I'm no longer frustrated with GPS. Thanks FE for filling in where Samsung dropped the ball. I didn't try any of the new kernals as it seems to work well stock. I do have WiFi off so a bit more testing with wifi on.

Same here, 6/10 stock seems to b locking fine. Phone was in deep sleep for over 5 hours and turned gps on and locked in about 10secs
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
Mach11 - same my build.
Mach12 and Mach13 - GPS deep sleep deaths.
Thanks FE for trying to fix GPS deep sleep deaths.

Lol.. you using my boot.img
Yeah checked same init.aries.gps.rc and sorry after checked my build there is one file i edit inside "android/system/system/core/rootdir" init.rc files.
I think that's all. Too many trial and error to get GPS work after DS with my phone on stock cm9 kernel.

I tried 0610 stock, as well as Mach 10, 11, 12, 13. I used the Ultimate Kernal Cleaner script before installing each kernel. I had GPS death after deep sleep on all.
BTW....good to see the appearance of Cid.

69Please note that there may be intermittent emergency dialing issues and/or GPS/AGPS issues (including GPS daemon crashing, which does not restart) which could hinder location of you in an emergency.
CyanogenMod is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 4.0.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.
Code:#include <std/disclaimer.h> /* * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear * war, or the current economic crisis caused by you following these * directions. YOU are choosing to make these modificiations, and * if you point your finger at me for messing up your device, I will * laugh at you. */
This thread is for the development of CyanogenMod 9 nightlies for the Samsung Vibrant (aka SGH-T959), the Galaxy S 4G / Vibrant 4G (SGH-T959V) is not supported here. Nightlies are built each night with the very latest code, for this reason, they are extremely experimental and should be avoided by beginners and people who have important responsibilities tied to the usage of their phone.
CyanogenMod is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. CyanogenMod does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.
All the source code for CyanogenMod is available in the CyanogenMod Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to CyanogenMod, please visit out Gerrit Code Review.

The CyanogenMod team would like to thank everyone involved in helping with testing, coding, debugging & documenting! Enjoy!1410[font=Calibri,Arial]How to Build[/font]First initialize your build environment.
Now follow the "installing repo" section in this guide:
http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html
Now downloading CyanogenMod source:
Code:mkdir ~/Desktop/CM9 cd ~/Desktop/CM9 repo init -u http://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git repo sync -j24
More setup:
Code:. build/envsetup.sh breakfast cm_vibrantmtd-userdebug
Getting proprietary files:
You must have a copy of CM9 for the Vibrant running on your phone for this part.
Code:( cd device/samsung/vibrantmtd && ./extract-files.sh )
Compiling:
Code:mka bacon9911
Ok so here is my 911 experience. I live in Denver by the way, and I just emailed the 911 operations manager about doing a test call. She said that is fine just please do it between 8:30 and 11:30 as that is their lowest call volume.
So the first time I called it clicked, hung up and disabled my entire cell signal. No signal no data nothing. So I rebooted my phone, and google voice informed me I had 2 missed calls from the Denver PD. I tried again and it worked perfectly. I explained I was testing a piece of software, the woman was very friendly said that was no problem and they wouldn't send anyone out. She also confirmed that all the E911 info came up properly on her screen.
So I'm not sure what to make of this exactly. One time it did nothing though at least my number got through. The other time it worked great. I mean the first time could have been a glitch entirely unrelated to CM. Hard to say. It leaves me ambigious though. If I have a real emergency I really don't want to wait for the phone to reboot!
