Both the download links are broken. I found the proper file on the goo-inside.me site. It should be http://goo-inside.me/cm/vibrantmtd/stable/update-cm-7.1.0.1-Vibrant-signed.zip. Not sure why the one you have listed point to the legend subfolder.
[Vibrant Android Development] EricDET:
I use the search button everytime I want to know something and by some miracle I always find the answer..... And I provided help to a person with a question. If anyone is hurt by my logic I'm truly sorry.

Btw.... The market is a google app... The OP in this very thread has instructions to flash it.... Follow the instructions in the post and you won't have to ask questions about why something doesn't work because you didn't follow plain as day direction.
[Vibrant Android Development] Jackdog89:
Btw, The OP in this very thread gives optional instructions to install it.

It shouldn't hurt to ask a question. :rolleyes:

GPS fix script isn't working on my vibrant I mean I'm not going to wait around for 20 min to get a lock, I waited 10 min still no lock it's kinda hot outside. Other then that this rom is fast but I haven't seen the edge symbol for along time and it sure is frequent on the this rom I'm going to flash some other modems see if any other modems help. I haven't pulled the sim out or put any apn settings I don't really think I need to....No FC at all so far.
[Vibrant Android Development] SamsungVibrant:
When you say script are you referring to this?

I flashed the one that says:

Vibrant_CM7_GPSFix_V1.5.1-CWM-signed.zip

Also try installing AngryGPS and then go to tracking test and leave your phone by a window and let it sit until it finds sats.

I did the two things above and now my GPS seems to work great, thanks to strictlydude who told me about that GPSFix.

Also I noticed, if my GPS fails to initiate (no icon flashing in notification bar)...if I use advanced task killer to kill everything and anything that uses GPS, this helps to initiate gps when I go back into maps or GPStest.

Good luck, I know this dumb GPS on this phone is so frustrating at times.
[Vibrant Android Development] AustinKnight45:
Yes , I flashed the the first one Vibrant_CM7_GPSFix_V1.5.1-CWM-newgpsd-signed.zip it had 1045 views so I figured I couldn't go wrong. I'll try what you said let you know in a few THx;)
[Vibrant Android Development] gamefreakgcb:
I cannot for the life of me get this to flash. I ODIN'ed back to stock. I have the update.zip for CWM 2.5.*.*. I perform the format for system, data, cache. Do factory reset and when I finally go to flash, it'll go to "Checking BML/MTD" and then go into a boot loop.
[Vibrant Android Development] SamsungVibrant:
I have no clue but here are some thoughts, maybe the install zip you are using is corrupt? Download directly from cyanogen mods website.

maybe voodoo lagfix is enabled from previous?

Maybe you have to wipe dalvik cache?
[Vibrant Android Development] AustinKnight45:
I had this issue also, don't really know why but I had to odin and then I DL CWM and installed it then I put CM 7.1 on to the phone and format system, data I don't think I did a factory reset I don't remember. Flashed CM and it didn't loop.
[Vibrant Android Development] gamefreakgcb:
I made sure lagfix was disables. Re-partition was checked by default in the AIO toolbox ODIN though. That make a difference?
[Vibrant Android Development] SeanFloyd:
Wiping Cache/Data got rid of bootloops for me.
[Vibrant Android Development] gamefreakgcb:
Great. It finally worked. After the last boot-loop. I took out the battery, then did the 3 button trick to try to get into recovery. It loaded the latest recovery. The Cyan one. From there it was smooth sailing.
[Vibrant Android Development] huynhp:
Not sure if you got this resolved or not, but I was having the same problem. I did a factory reset, formatted data/cache/dalvic and it still went into a boot loop. I double checked the md5 checksum and my file wasn't corrupted so during the boot loop, I just did the 3-button combo (or pull the battery and use the USB cable if that helps) to get into recovery again, reflashed the SAME FILE and it was fine the 2nd time around.

Hope this helps.
[Vibrant Android Development] t1h5ta3:
one thing ive noticed in the past on the vibe and my hd2, if i leave the usb pluged into the computer durring first boot after a flash, i get errors, if i unplug it (atleast till the 2nd boot screen) i dont get the issues.

( i was in the habit of watching logcat's durring first boot. )

When I send mms the pictures come out fuzzy how do I fix this? I'm using the rom's built in screen shot to send the photos. Any help would be appreciated :-)
[Vibrant Android Development] Asm8001:
It happens with PNG files but jps come out fine anyway to fix this. The screen shots on the power button default to PNG quality

[Vibrant Android Development] airhop7:
okay idk why you guys are having problems installing cm7..follow the instructions and it works, it isnt hard..you can flash through clock works from rooted froyo or gingerbread as simple as that. and ppl asking if this rom is stable, it is stable...why would cm7 put this rom up in the "Stable" section if it wasnt stable? GPS works fine, 911 works fine everything works on this ROM. Visit the website and read their forums

No GPS does not work for me out of box. I disabled voodoo, Odin to stock, flashed Cyanogen mod. Downloaded from official website. Waited 15 min. Rebooted. Flashed gapps from rom manager. Rebooted. Ran GPS test. No sat. Ran gmaps. Same thing no GPS. I disabled GPS. Rebooted. Enabled GPS rebooted. Ran GPS test again. No lock. I haven't had a GPS issue with any 2.2 rom. Yes I know that this is a 2.3 rom. If I'm doing something wrong please let me know.

Update. I feel like a retard, but at least I am omitting to doing it wrong. I was running 7.1 which GPS doesn't work. The latest version. 7.1.x. had the needed files to make GPS work out of box. So I wasn't running the most up to date version ...lol
[Vibrant Android Development] jekyoo_style:
Is there something wrong with the battery life on CM7.1? I was at 69%, I restarted and it then said the battery was 9-10%. I restarted the phone 2 more times and it went up to 30% and now it's currently at 23%. Any ideas? If the battery indicator broken or is there a possible fix to?

Erroneous Headset Mode

Came from 7.1 RC and now my phone thinks it's in headset mode (i.e. no external media sound), any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated.
[Vibrant Android Development] N_B:
Just to be clear, when you say you downloaded from the official website, do you mean you got update-cm-7.1.0-Vibrant-signed.zip? Because if you download from the link in the OP, you get update-cm-7.1.0.1-Vibrant-signed.zip, which is different (for some reason that one is not available on official website, or wasn't when I looked for it). One difference I can see is that the .1 version has geomagneticd and orientationd - which maybe are only compass but may be necessary for GPS and even if not, there maybe other differences too.
[Vibrant Android Development] lostwhat83:
I download 7.1.0.1 and installed it. Boom GPS works out of box inside my house. I feel embarrassed..lol
[Vibrant Android Development] techbeck:
Going to try this out in a few but a quick question.

Would I be able to do a nandroid restore back to Froyo if I wanted for any reason?

Also, do I need to disable the lag fix before I flash? And yes, I read the OP and didnt see anything about the lag fix.

thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] far004:
Installed CM for the first time. Was a long time user of TW ROMS, switched to SH for a few days and now have decided to try CM.

A quick question, is voodoo installed already on this one? I installed it through ROM Manager.

Just to be clear, I flashed to Bionix 1.3.1 and then flashed CM7.1.0.1 through ROM Manager and after that flashed KB5 Modem.
[Vibrant Android Development] Kaik541:
you have to odin a stock ROM to get off of CM7. once you are back on an stock ROM, you can restore your nandroid to your prior set up.

which part of voodoo? the "lagfix" isn't included because we convert all the partitions to MTD layout and run on yaffs2/ext4. voodoo sound v10 is in the kernel and (similar to voodoo color) RGB tuning from within the voodoo control application is usable as well.
[Vibrant Android Development] techbeck:
Did you have to disable voodoo before you flashed CM7?

---------- Post added at 04:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:26 AM ----------

Thanks for the info. I am assuming i can keep the lagfix enabled since it doesnt say to disable in the OP/instructions.
[Vibrant Android Development] far004:
Not really... I just went to stock (through ODIN) and then to Bionix v1.3.1 (to get Froyo) and then flashed CM 7.1.0.1 through ROM Manager...

Well I don't care whether I have Voodoo or not as far as I have ext4 running... So, is ext4 running already???

Gee Pee Ess

Just reporting in on GPS experience.

I installed update-cm-7.1.0.1-Vibrant-signed.zip (not 7.1.0 which is stable version at cyanogenmod site), and GPS DOES work for me out of the box - I can even get 14 feet accuracy...IF I'm outside holding my phone as high as I can reach with the back side facing up...and I don't move. Navigation...uhm...not terribly useful, for me (accuracy varies, loses lock, etc.). (Note: if anyone remembers GPS on the stock 2.1 rom, it's like that :))

I decided to try Vibrant_CM7_GPSFix_V1.5.1-CWM-signed.zip as was suggested earlier in the thread...but my arm went to sleep and it didn't even get a bird in view. But I didn't switch kernels, as I'm not sure which to use with 7.1.0.1, etc. Also...I didn't try the nogpsd version - because again, I'm not 100% sure if that's even worth trying...?

Went back to stock 7.1.0.1 - and I get locks again, same behavior as above.

The rest of this ROM is really nice...so, maybe it's just time for me to get a BT GPS Puck?
[Vibrant Android Development] SamsungVibrant:
I just got to say that Samsung really got away scotts free with this entire GPS fiasco. Galaxy S sold around the world, millions of people purchased the product with defective GPS while the product is Advertised as having GPS capabability. Samsung very well aware the phone has GPS issues yet continues to launch in the USA. Talk about getting away with selling a defective product to millions of people. Honestly, they should have been sued, the GPS is defective no matter what anyone says. They should freaking give all of us a free SGS-2 for knowingly launching a defective phone in the USA.
[Vibrant Android Development] N_B:
Yes. It's...running already. You should go read about the MTD partition layout used in CM7 if you're interested in more details.

I'm trying to do Voodoo/disable-lagfix folder to a T but they won't let me, or is that not the root of the SD card?

having issue with latest build V7.1.0.1 fresh install.

everything running smooth, but as long as phone goes into deep sleep, it lose the GSM signal forever and needs to restart phone to get it back...

any suggestion?

[Vibrant Android Development] iynfynity:
Why don't you disable it on the recovery? What are you trying to do anyway?

Also when you odin to JFD you don't have to disable the voodoo.
[Vibrant Android Development] huynhp:
settings > cyanogenmod settings > lockscreen > check the box to disable lockscreen if you have security lock
[Vibrant Android Development] techbeck:
duh, thanks. Will check that in a sec.

install clockwork recovery. im on stock 2.2 rooted. I'm trying to install this version of cm and have no recovery, its apart of the install process with heimdall via wiki i seen?
[Vibrant Android Development] iynfynity:
You have a voodoo enable right? You should have the red recovery.

The easiest way and safest way is to install JFD then flash the CWM from the Rom manager. After that follow the process on installing CM7.
[Vibrant Android Development] techbeck:
Any idea why the LED notifications in the Cyanogen settings wouldnt be working?
[Vibrant Android Development] Penvision66:
I have no recovery, i have the blue android one that you get on stock... I don't have voodoo at all, for sure...

---------- Post added at 03:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:13 AM ----------

All I need to do since im on rooted 2.2 stock with nothing like cwm and voodoo is get rom manager fro the market and flash cm7 with it? Sounds too good to be true lol... Also if that is the case am i a vibrant or a mtd? or can i use heimdall and ignore the lagfix part since it is not on my phone and just flash it that way?
[Vibrant Android Development] iynfynity:
Now that's more clear. Yes just go ahead and flash the CWM from rom manager. For sure you can choose the vibrant because that works for me.

Be sure to wipe the data, cache and do the factory reset then flash this rom.

Good luck!
[Vibrant Android Development] Penvision66:
Thank you so much man! You rock!
[Vibrant Android Development] techbeck:
Yea, its nice and all but going to stick with my Froyo build. I will be getting a new phone when ICS begins rolling out with new devices. Just to many bugs/issues dealing with GB ROMs for the Vibrant it seems.

If an official release is ever made for GB, then I will go that route. Otherwise, not enough changes from Froyo to GB really that is going to make me want to switch right now.
[Vibrant Android Development] t1h5ta3:

just installed rom and runs smooth... still having issues with google apps. installed the gabbs zip or whatever as instructed. but i am only connected via wifi, is that the problem? my service is off right now so cant connect via 3g until bill paid. but is this the reason the market not working? tried reading and searching but this thread has bounced from one extreme to the next and still unclear about the google apps and market apps. if worse comes to worse i can manually install everything but dont want to if dont have to.

If you are referring to the FC when running the Market app, all you will need to do is go into Settings -> Language & Keyboard -> Select Language. Choose something other than English HD.
[Vibrant Android Development] jay661972:
same here, it took me a while to download 1 app from the market. connected via wifi. i kept clearing the data for the market and clear cache and turn on and turn off wifi and immediately open market.
[Vibrant Android Development] nuwanmw1988:
I like it
[Vibrant Android Development] peedizzle:
how did u clear the cache? im not getting a force close i just keep getting the "app" could not be downloaded due to an error. nothing downloads from market at all. i can install the .apk's by mounting the drive tho...
[Vibrant Android Development] rudy847:
I'm at 15 hours with 36% percent left. Not bad for heavy use. I kill the data when I don't need it. Battery life isn't the greatest for us but we have to work with what we have. Aside from that, this rom is awesome.

Gee Pee Ess, Again

Just had to stop back to eat a few of my words from yesterday.

Executive Summary: GPS Works out of the box on 7.1.0.1, navigation worked perfectly, friggin' awesome job.

I'm running stock 7.1.0.1. Yesterday I reported GPS worked out of the box, but was like GPS used to be on stock 2.1, but I was wrong *eats words*.

Well...today I was driving to work (25mi), and I just left GPSTest on (with it set to leave screen on). For about 10 miles, accuracy was >150ft...but then it went down to 15ft, and stayed there (varied up to 25ft [< 10m for rest of world]) and stayed locked the rest of the way.

I then toggled GPS off....and realized I forgot my laptop...so I toggled it back on, to try navigation. Took about 30 seconds to lock, but once it did - it navigated me home, and perfectly - I watched the whole way, and the words "spot on" are applicable.

I still can't get locks in the house that correctly show what room I'm in like we used to get with Jillette's crazy GPS fixes for 2.2, but I have to say that GPS is the best I've seen it on GB, and navigation IS useful, and works well.

Nice work guys!

Battery on CM 7.1.01 vibrant

So that 15 hours with 36% left is that with data off? I started this morning with 100% at 8:30am now 3 hours later I'm down to 76% and all I had is one call and 4 txt messages so far. I was using the Bionix 1.31. and I was hoping to have the same battery life. Its there any thing that I can do on my end here to improve battery life? What I did last night is made sure that I drain the battery down to 0% so I can have a full charge this morning.
[Vibrant Android Development] ali4ek:
I'm not even bothering flashing the CM 7.1.

Perfectly happy with the snappy and bug-free Froyo 2.2.1.
[Vibrant Android Development] beren28:
I do not know if this is a CM-specific question, but I have only had this problem on CM.

I added my wife's account to gmail so she can check her email while we are out. Now that account is linked to the market, and have the time when I open it it goes to her account not mine. She does not have an android device, does not need access to the market at all, just gmail. How can I undo this?

I have deleted the account and entered it again in gmail, with the same result.
[Vibrant Android Development] a2296455:
So are you saying once you get a lock it's easier to get a lock? I've been waiting outside for 5 minutes and I'm not getting anything :(

BUT it is an improvement, because now the icon flashses whenever I open maps. Before, it would only flash once, and then die. I would have to restart my phone from there.
[Vibrant Android Development] Jackdog89:
The new market allows you to link any gmail account you have on your phone to it. That said, if you have your wife's gmail on your phone, it will automatically link it in the market.

I have three gmail accounts set up on my phone and all three appear in the market (menu key/ accounts). I believe the market defaults to the account that you setup on your phone first (default gmail account).
[Vibrant Android Development] james11417:
I tried nightly before but had the problem of GPS only working if you keep GPS on all the time after booting. If I turned GPS off and tried toggling it on again from the notification bar, I couldn't get anything. I had to reboot to get it working again. Does it still have this problem?

Button Backlights come on with notification

Hi All,

When I get an IM or text, the backlight for the buttons comes on, which is killing my battery. How do I stop it from doing that?

I searched here and the nightly thread, and the people who had a similar problem were told that it's the Backlight Notification, under Settings > CM Settings > Interface > LED Notifications, but I checked and I don't have anything set up that would cause this sort of behavior. And anyway Backlight Notifications aren't turned on by default, as I understand it.

Thanks for the help!
[Vibrant Android Development] c-pimp:
They are on by default. goto

Settings > CM Settings > Interface > LED Notifications > Unconfigured

You need to click on each item in there and force OFF then click save. Do this for each item in there if you want no black light notification, also there is one tick mark box in Call settings or sound, i forget ... its for missed call back light notification... turn that off as well...
[Vibrant Android Development] ohnoezmahfone:
oh, okay then, thanks for the tip. Not that my opinion is worth anything, but that seems like a bad choice-- it really does a number on your battery.

Battery on CM 7.101

I'm not so sure that's the notification killing the battery. I turn that off yesterday and I'm still having battery problems today. As others have posted on the cyanogen forum that the phone is awake for most of the time during the day. My phone had a awake time of 5h 29m. Whats everyone getting as far as battery life on Cm 7.101?
[Vibrant Android Development] Emama:
I used BLN before flashing CM7..

that LED notification is not really draining so much..

I do think this feature worth that tiny consumption:D
[Vibrant Android Development] beren28:
Is there no way to unlink it from the market? Half the time it defaults to her account, half the time to mine.
