Alright, I figured out the sensor problem. I downloaded a fresh copy of the rom, did a full wipe and then installed the fresh copy. My light and proximity sensors are now working great. Now hopefully my battery issues will subside but only time will tell. The Kswapd0 process isnt showing up in Better Battery Stats so, so far so good. I'll update later.

GPS not working ....

Hi,

I am on RC 4.1; everything is working fine except GPS. I tried many times but it doesn’t work.

Please let me know if there is any workaround or setting?
[Vibrant Android Development] c-pimp:
I have asked myself what I was doing wrong with this to.... I tried a bunch of kernels and everything... nothing has gotten gps working for me with this rom... i get cell triangulation only with this and no birds seen or locked no matter what kernel...

If anyone can enlighten us I to would greatly apprecieate it.... it would make this a perfect ics experience.

2.2 kernel... I did, It worked on Eupohria, not on this, just reflashed a second time to make sure everything went well... no birds in view at all... gps icon doesnt even pop up... ever. I wish I could figure it out... perhaps tomorrow ill odin back to stock and start fresh but when I do install I factory wipe + davlic and then goto mounts and storage and wipe everything except internal and external sd...

If you want to try I have some test files for you

Look at my sourceforge

https://sourceforge.net/projects/ultimaterom/files/ICS/

ICS_GPS_FILES.TEST2.zip

ICS_GPS_FILES.TEST1.zip

Try test 1 and see how your phone works with that one if not then test 2, the only difference is different binaries Test 1 its from Neo's Rom and Test 2 its from Vibrant 4g Gingerbread rom.

They both wipe dalvik and cache so 1st boot will take some extra time.

Please report.

Help

my frd has T959, bt he uses it in India(unlocked) his cousin has installed him some ROM by team whisky9or sumthng lyk tat, m not sure) running on froyo, he wants to install this ICS how can he do that? i mean wont his cell get locked again after he flashes this? plz help(m a noob myself, so a non jargon answer wud be preferable)
[Vibrant Android Development] c-pimp:
Thanks jrafael, I tested both and they both work, at first I tried work ics kiss 2.2 kernel and then work icy glitch latest and both test worked with either kernel... Test two locked a bit quicker it seemed, didn't connect to more than 3 birds with 11 or 12 in view but I didn't test enough... Just confirmed working! Thanks!

Do I need to install the kernel first to install these GPS fixes.
[Vibrant Android Development] deus_:
An almost perfect ROM. Thanks to the great developers.

But the GPS is still not working. Even after applying the above two fixes. Sometimes the GPS icon doesn't show at all, sometime it shows but doesn't blinks.

I wonder why can't devs copy the working GPS files/config from Passion?
[Vibrant Android Development] jrafael:
I did copied the gps files from passion. 13 for the test file 1, there must be something else that neo modified at the framework level to make it work consistently.
[Vibrant Android Development] jrafael:
Doesn't matters the order.
[Vibrant Android Development] deus_:
^^ Oh there's a kernel as well. I missed that part. So I should flash both kernel and the GPS fix. Right?
[Vibrant Android Development] Krusade:
can someone answer?
[Vibrant Android Development] deus_:
1) He needs Gingerbread bootloader(the part that starts booting process of OS). Froyo won't do.

2) Unlock is independent of ROM used. Don't worry about that.

In my opinion, you should upgrade to CM7 and from there update to this ROM.
[Vibrant Android Development] Krusade:
thanks mate,will do it, bt where can i get the gb bootloader and how to do it? can u PM me?
[Vibrant Android Development] deus_:
It will get updated automatically once you update to a GB-based ROM. Like this, for example:

http://www.cyanogenmod.com/devices/samsung-vibrant

Flashing is simple rebooting and pressing Volume up + volume down + power and selecting the downloaed ROM from your SD card. You should easily find detailed instructions on forum.

Hi

If you are on Froyo 2.2 Samsung official version than you must be on T959UVKB5 latest update.

The simple way to install CyanogenMod 7 is ….

1.	root your phone (SuperOneClickRoot)

2.	install ClockWorkMod from market

3.	Select ClockWorkMod Revovery (Samsung Vibrant MTD)

4.	Click on Download ROM in CWM

5.	It will display the list of supported ROMs

6.	Select CyanogenMod 7 (there are 2 CM available Stable and Nightly, select Stable)

7.	Once download is complete install the ROM using CWM

8.	Reboot the phone in recovery mode(Volume + - and Power, 3 button combo) and install the downloaded CM7

9.	** After installation, phone may go in reboot loop. Don’t worry just remove the battery for 30 sec. And reinstall the ROM again.

10.	This will take you to CM7 Android 2.3.7

11.	Then download ICSSGS RC4.2 and install RC4.2 using CWM.

Hope this will help ….

This will update the boot loader as well as the kernel

** I am also using the unlocked Vibrant and installing ROM doesn’t lock your phone. I tried 2-3 different ROMs and it does not lock the phone … so, go ahead

Wifi Verification Phase 2

Hi,

I've been using this ROM for a while, but today i noticed that i can't connect to the university's Wifi network because it doesn't seem to save the phase 2 verification configuration.

Like, i setup the network (security modes are PEAP and MSCHAPv2), i save it, it doesn't connect. If i go to "modify", the settings are all there, except the 2nd phase verification (MSCHAPv2), it's now set to "none".

Can someone take a look at this?

[Vibrant Android Development] cantIntoCode:
Nope, your wrong there. We never got a vibrant from Eugene at all. He said he would give it our way but idk what happened to that. Also, this ROM isn't dead, I'm not sure why you thought that as you can easily join ##icssgs and find out whats going on. We are working on this daily, and trying to fix as much as possible. Like atm we are looking into a full/proper solution that works for everyone to stop the low storage issues, but as you probably know the current fixes causes major lag in bad nand devices.

I flashed RC4.2 onto my Vibrant and there are two issues.

1) The GPS is not working, at all.

2) The signal appears to have worsened. Where I used to get 3G I now sometimes get 2G. 3G still works, just not as well.

Anybody sharing these issues?

Many Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] Haxel:
Not having the signal issues, its about the same for me on 2.2, if not better than 2.2 stock.

GPS doesn't work for me either. I'm just patiently waiting for an update. This ROM appears to be one of cleanest.

The others release a little to fast with bad quirks. Although, I'm jealous and impressed with some of their features.
[Vibrant Android Development] gunks:
1) That's a kernel issue. Flash different kernels and see what happens.

But so far so good! Thanks.

SGS4G

Hi Guys This ICS is for all Galaxy S devices the vibrant is identical to the T959V or Galaxy S 4G but without 4g connectivity I know it's a different Kernel that runs the infrastructure of the phones but I'll try it out, because the Galaxy S 4G is the only phone without support of the whole Galaxy S family, It's the fastest of them all, I'll try the vibrant build to see if it works despite of the T959 Tag in the installer. I know it's virtually not possible because the kernel source is not released but it may be a way around it.
[Vibrant Android Development] wildklymr:
I have mixed feelings about the t959v. Samsung dropped support for updates for the vibrant because they wanted to focus on one galaxy s for T-Mobile. We never got official GB, or even unofficial leaked GB with working everything. It was only due to the diligence of some dedicated devs, most of which at this point don't even own the vibrant, that this Dev forum continues to thrive. I wish you the best of luck in getting ics working, but at the very least you have GB.

---------- Post added at 05:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:02 AM ----------

When the updaterscript is chnaged to t959v is passed and installation continues, but with any alien rom the kernel just hangs since it can't manage the hardware. I think SGS4G is stuck with GB, enough with ICS It just can't doit and anyays this phone is old and is a weak single core compared to the exynos quad core and dual cores of galaxy s2 and the upcoming galaxy S3. I'll get a Galaxy S2.

It still bootloops It says Running updaterscript.. then restart and bootloops as soons as i flash the kernel to a sgs4g in this case a dr honk kernel for the sgs4g it works very well but it still is in Gingerbread since it didn't install the rom. The problem is here, in the kernel, if this can get a working one it may install ICS successfully in the phone, Since the kernel doesn't know what to do with the hardware of the phone it bootloops.
[Vibrant Android Development] TLX317:
This is what happens to my phone when I'm upgrading from froyo to ICS. It starts installing it then bootloops because the cwm is incompatible or something so it bootloops after installing the new cwm. What works for me is pulling the battery and then after putting it in booting into recovery with the button hold and reinstalling the rom and everything is golden after that. Maybe it's the same on your phone?
[Vibrant Android Development] tichs:
I can't get in recovery mode the only mode i can get is download mode even if i get the battery out i can't get into recovery because there is no cwm it just happens that when ics is instilling something wrong happens and messes up the previous kernel and cwm, I get to download mode and flashback only dr honks kernel and it works again. something has to be tweaked to get it working. If in T959 works in T959V it must work just with tweaks I think. The vibrant is the same exact phone just without front facing camera and 4g HSPA+21Mbps chip.
