No. As of now I'm not even sure if there are actually any 911 issues, mishamosher's issues turned out to be not CM's fault. GPS / RIL mismatch might've caused one failure, but this is primarily to see if GPS survives deep sleep.

I will have another GPS kernel test soon if this doesn't work, I just noticed something in the SZ/Devil kernel, that we don't have related to GPS. Stay tuned! :cool:

RavingRabbits test GPS kernel!
RavingRabbits.zip

The results I'm looking for is whether GPS survives deep sleep with this kernel (like subZero does). Please only report if you've had trouble with GPS surviving deep sleep on stock kernel before, and flashing subZero fixed it. Please note whether you're using RavingRabbits, or GPS-kernel-2012-05-10 in your results.

On stock kernel GPS is starting only first time after I close any app that using GPS and then try again to start but no luck. Only reboot can help

With this RavingRabbits.zip , gps starting normaly but anyway TTFF is Very very BAD

For those of you that helped me with ics on my vibrant, thank you. Even with the given problems, it worked when I needed it most. I am finally retiring the phone and updated to another phone.

Actually with recent nightlies you get the best of both worlds; with the voodoo app installed you get the controls routed through that and not dsp manager. And if you don't have the voodoo app you can control through dsp manager

I'm looking for a few more people to help test 911...
Please PM me with the name of your carrier and location (state is enough in U.S.).

  • You must be willing to perform 10 or more tests on each build I need.
  • You must be willing to flash ROMs a lot and/or Odin.
  • You must have good ADB knowledge.
  • You must know how to get a logcat via adb onto your computer.

1) Wait wait wait.... You got GPS lock after reboot, but no GPS lock after reboot? Or do you mean after reboot then DS?
2) Does GPS work after DS on subZero for you?
3) Your phone doesn't enter deep sleep after GPS has been activated for a moment then shut off?

How are you confirming that deep-sleep is happening? CPU-Spy?

3) Stock.

Can you get GPS to die after a DS again, and then get me the results of this command in terminal emulator:
Code: 
ps gpsd

Then can you dump your kmsg?
Code: 
su
cat /proc/kmsg > /sdcard/gps_kmsg.txt

And then post gps_kmsg.txt?

Thanks.

    Please 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.

    ... from another CM9 nightly
    1. Reboot into recovery
    2. Do a nandroid backup (just in case)
    3. Install from ZIP
    4. Reboot
    5. If it gives you trouble later, wipe cache, and reboot. If it still gives you trouble, do a full wipe, install again and reboot.

    ... from CyanogenMod 7 or a CM7-based ROM
    1. Reboot into recovery
    2. Do a nandroid backup (just in case)
    3. Wipe everything (wipe data/factory reset)
    4. Install from ZIP
    5. Optionally install the Google Apps add-on.

    [font=Calibri, Arial]FAQ[/font]​
    Q: I can't add my Google account!
    A: Install the Google Apps package from CWM recovery, linked above. This is standard procedure with CyanogenMod ROMs due to licensing issues with Google.

    A: Yes.

    Q: I keep getting "Installation Aborted" error 7
    A: Install the Glitch kernel and retry.

    Q: Where's the changelog?
    A: http://changelog.bbqdroid.org/#vibrantmtd/cm9/latest

    Q: When will the Linaro tweaks be merged?
    A: Don't know.


    The CyanogenMod team would like to thank everyone involved in helping with testing, coding, debugging & documenting! Enjoy!

    [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:

    911

    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!
