I flashed the first zip without a problem, tried to locate gps and cant find my location 
I tried flashing second zip but gets error msg's when installing. Can someone point me to the gps fix where you push the files into certain folders? I can't find the thread.

This fixed my GPS running Simply Galaxy/Sweet Honey! At first, it wouldnt lock with only GPS but now it locks to 50 m of my location indoors (with only GPS!)
your the man, and the other person too, who answered. great work. I am creating a rehab for vibrant addicts. detox center!.... jk. I thought it was funny. peace yall.
Hey i'm running this same ROM. Which zip did you flash? Did you do it thru recovery or rom manager?

I will re-check it in a bit - if the first one works then the second one isn't needed.
I flashed the first zip, held power button down to reboot to recovery, flashed as you would a rom zip.
edit: remember to clear you maps cache in settings -> applications
I cleared cache, data, I flashed thru recovery and still not able to find my gps location using gps alone. I give up lol . Thanks for trying to help though.
Looks like with CM7 on the Vibrant, this does NOT fix it. Which I was pretty much expecting anyway.
A new modem might also help you, who knows. I had good experience with KA7 (in my area), maybe odin to stock and reflash everything because you might have some ghosting left from previous GPS flashes.
yeah, i got that part, it was the '2.3.2 for vibrant' that i'm curious about. just wondering if there is an edt or tw or eb 2.3.2 in the soon-to-be-released works. cause cm7 is close enough to barely daily driverable that i don't want to go to anything not gingerbread.

flashed the first zip. running darkys beta and deleted GPS. locked in inside with phone on couch with accuracy of 20 meters. never had that before.
never had that before.
You say to use SGS to delete GPS data - could you elaborate on that? I'm still fairly new to this ball game
This refers to the sgs tools app, search xda or get it from one of my roms.

41Gingerbread.GPS.zip
This is a flash for the GPS files pulled from the new XWJV1 Gingerbread I9000 Leak.
Rather a mix of GB GPS and Vibrant GPS.
Wipes Dalvik so it will take a minute longer to reboot after flashing it.
This took a little longer for me to lock indoors but I was still able to get 6 meters accuracy with 6 of 12 birds locked.

S.gps.zip
AKA Super GPS
This is the one you want to try!
Flash on 2.2.1 and under.
Great success has been had when combining this software fix with the hardware fix found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=878970
************************************************************10As I said, this requires init.d support.
It will set the gps parameters at boot.
Optimized for North America but will work for all.
Use sgs tools to clear your gps settings then flash this.
Allow a moment to start locking in sgs tools.
Allow a little longer than sgs tools if you go straight to maps instead.
File structure appears very similar to s.gps but this is a brand new setup.2
Go to secret codes, then click GPS Tests and settings, then delete GPS Data.2
You will have to push the files then because cm7 is going to want this in the form of an updater_script
