It is not "I" it is "l" , small "L".
I am planning on also doing a 911 test here in Minneapolis, MN in the next few days. Any information you would specifically like me to verify?
I'm on nightly update-cm-9-20120331 from March 31.
It took me a little longer than expected because I wanted to be sure of my results before posting. I did some 911 testing in Minneapolis, MN. This was my procedure before calling:
Reboot phone
Let it settle for approximately 5 min
Open google maps to ensure that GPS is functioning for E911 capabilities once I do the call.
Close maps and call.
....
For those interested in doing a similar test in your area:
911 operators are very welcoming of having individuals call and test whether 911 is working on their phone. This is a service that we all are paying for as citizens so be sure that you will be able to take advantage of it in an emergency by doing a test in your area. The man I talked to indicated that the best time to call is often between about 5-10 AM because this is when they are least busy but still well staffed. When you call start with something like "Good morning, this is not an emergency, I am just calling to ensure that 911 is working properly on my phone." Most operators will be very welcoming an friendly to these kinds of tests.

su
touch /datadata/.nodatadata
reboot
ls -a /datadata
Just restart from the beginning. Accroding to Fault, the commands (to get 2GB of app space) are http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=24553677&postcount=415:
Code:su touch /datadata/.nodatadata reboot
And then use the command f_mulder gave you http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=24891275&postcount=699:
Code:ls -a /datadata
"ls" means list. The commands by Fault gave us moves your apps to a different place and which makes /datadata not used. Thus, the output of f_mulder's command should do nothing (since there would be nothing to list).
If it works make sure you thank THEIR posts (and NOT mine, which is more of a collage of posts than a response)!

I did 4 test calls from the Mar 31 nightly, update-cm-9-20120331. On all instances the phone would display the call as going to 911, but it didn't connect (ie hearing the tone indicating connection on their end). After a few seconds I heard two short beeps that seemed to indicate the call failing. At this point the phone would go to the lockscreen and had dropped its cellular connection. On two of these instances the phone was completely frozen on the lockscreen, and the other two times it unlocked but the only way to regain cell connection was to reboot.
I also tried doing a complete factory reset and cache wipe and then reinstalling the March 31 nightly with the same results.
I never received a call back from 911 indicating none of the calls connected.
Its not all a horror story though, I updated to the April 14th update (update-cm-9-20120414), and attempted again with the same procedure. This time I was connected immediately and was able to talk to the operator. It took about 30-45 seconds into the call before the operator indicated that my location was being sent to him and he said that it showed a location that was within 100 meters or so of where I was. I think if we had stayed connected longer my GPS location might have become more precise on my exact location.

Great work CM9 team and, FaultException especially, for keeping all our phones alive and kickin!
Actually output should show lost+found and .nodatadata .
But thank you for gathering things in one place!
Ok same problem, i see the nodatadata and the lost and found files listed. Anything else? I did the 2 separate cmd into terminal.

how can I change battery to percent?

I wasn't talking about the GPSLocationProvider, I know that battery drainage that occurs when you turn on the GPS.
Just normal usage, it seems to me that ICS does take up quite a bit more battery than Froyo.
I agree with mulder, without GPS running, ICS (either this CM9 nightly or other CM9 based ROMs like Passion) drains far less than GB (CM7/MIUI), and about the same, IIRC (it has been a while), as Froyo (Bionix).
16 did not want to play nice with Sub Zero today. The two sent me into boot loops. 16 by itself was fine. Maybe the next nightly will jell with SZ.

Just want to make sure that it should be ".nodatadata" , with "." (dot) .
That really matters ...
