I'm aware that there are TONS of Gingerbread roms. But the thing that has been keeping me back from flashing is that GPS is broken. Does anyone know of any ROM that has working GPS in GB??
If there was a working GPS for TB,all but the CM7 builds would have GPS in the list of working features.
Short answer, no.

Without working GPS drivers for GB, this will never happen. Eugene claims to have done it, but he's disassociated himself with XDA. Personally I've never seen any proof of that claim.

Dang guys.. I really want GB haha
I hear you, if the GPS isn't working, never mind. Is there any other roms that are really nice for the SGH-T959?
I like the rotation of the icons on the G2, I would like to add that feature to my SGH-T959.
I am also waiting for GPS working on Gingerbread. However, I might try CM7 this week. If map is working, it still can take me to the destination.

I got impatient and installed CM7. It's very nice. I think I'll have to do without maps.

You didn't have to point it out AGAIN that I was wrong, especially when someone posted the actual reply link showing where he said he got it working.
If you're going to tell someone that someone else said a specific thing, don't just tell them, show them. Because telling them doesn't do anything.

Until we have a gingerbread leak or an ota for the vibrant, GPS will not work. It doesn't work on any 2.3 rom that runs on the vibrant.

I tried senseless 2.0, both synergy sense and senseless, and none of them work. on the last step when it says editing boot.img, it then states it's unable to copy it or something like that :/ its dumb. i've tried everything. I've been waiting for a multi boot like this

About to try it out, but hesitiant to drop my last few dollars from paypal. I've heard it works though from others. Anyone else got it working? Specifically on SupraROM 1.5 (AOSP) or Pulse? I'm working on mods for these ROMs and it would make it so much easier than NANDing back and forth.

Obviously CM7 Development is not dead at this time. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1304881
No u should be working on reading a little. Mrinehart is working in his build in his spare time. He is a full time student. He has a device and several members test his work.
The other build (GSM) is under construction in HIS spare time. These things take lots of time. Be patient.they are being worked on.

I believe the GSM Dev said himself he wouldn't support it as he wouldn't have time. So he's done what he can, I believe. And the CDMA one will be worked on again in probably a week or so. I think he had three weeks worth of school work that too priority.

Ok, makes sense, was a little confusing with both ROMs getting quick updates and then dying off for a while.
I think the GSM build was based off the CDMA build and that was has been a long painful process to even get it booting.

I thought it was independent, as the CDMA build did not have CDMA actually working. BTW is there source code for the GSM build?
It may have been, I'm not totally sure. As for source code, You'd have to PM the Dev and ask. I have no idea on that.
It's on his github,

As far as progress goes, alcohol(not money) is required as development is a huge pain in the (edited for language). It's trial and error and some people just have magical powers that others don't. Cm7 is based on aosp, while motoblur is too, motorola makes there own stuff to get it to work. Then they make there special files/drivers depend on other stuff that's theirs. Some of these drivers/files have no source. Theres where the problem is.
Now the GSM cm7 is actually a kang, or cm7 with built in moto files. The reason cdma doesn't work is because it isn't called correctly, as the files necessary are part of blur. The the other cm7 is pure cm. It's a long tedious road for anyone attempting cm but once we have it upgrading will be easy. Personally I think more people should be helping. Pm the CDMA dev and ask how to build to his point, sync with his git, read up on the cm forums and try to help. Even if you only fix a small thing, submitting it back to him and it will bring cm faster.
As far as me, I plan to start helping soon after I redo my dev box(ran out of room) . I hope others will too.

Well, I found cybik's(GSM) source code (https://github.com/cybik/Sunfire) and have been playing around with building it. I'm not sure how much help I can be with it though.
its true, development work is best done between .13-.20 BAC
seeing as how we don't pay these people to bring us anything, we can't really expect them to work on this day and night. I'm sure CM will be done eventually, I have no doubts about that. As for how long it's going to take, i really don't care. I'll happily accept a "when it's done" ETA.

Well if you mean towards jelly bean, yes and no. I don't think we can get aosp jb as their wont be a kernel for it. I think since JB is closely related to ICs versus the big difference between GB and ICS that it wont be as hard to go from one to the other
Correct me if I am wrong here. Trying to answer based on what I skim and read.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
Actually yes, Chad is working on the kernel/RIL issue. I talked to Dmaedows on twitter informed him of it, it was the first he heard of Chad's working on it. Tweeted back later, it seems the two are going to work together, or at the very least Dmeadows is going to merge his fixes with Chad to make something useable.
But as always, remain cautiously optimistic, no promises.
http://www.twitlonger.com/show/i7dae2
I doubt we'll get a fully working JB port any time soon, few months at best.
Last I read on the ICS RIL was the kernel source was needed so we are stuck waiting for the update to be release and the source to be posted on HTC's dev site shortly afterwards...
No idea if that's truly the hold up, just something I saw awhile back.
guys yes rils are done. Currently waiting on kernel source to do anything.

Hi all.
My wife's phone recently played out for the third time within a year (D2). When they replaced it this time they sent her a completely different phone.
Well she liked my DX2 better so I got the other (sam strat) phone. I had planned on moving to another phone in the not so distant future but looks like I got moved sooner then I thought. (Still gonna get a different phone in the near future)
The DX2 community on here is incredible, and I am sure that goes without saying and everyone of you guys and gals know that! I will miss my phone and the community but it's time to move on I suppose. I wish you all the best, I am sure I will stop in from time to time to check up on things.
DK, your an awesome Dev. and I think more so then that you seem to be a super guy from what one can get to know someone else through communicating over the internet / forums. Thanks man for all your time and effort!
GL all.
Don't be a stranger and be sure to stop in from time to time. When I got my Gnex, the thought crossed my mind that I may not frequent the DX2 community as much. But I just can't let it go. Other areas here on XDA just don't offer what is abundant here. By far the best on the web, hands down.
Best of luck in your future endeavors...neighbor!

It's definitly a lot easier rooting the x2, but oh well. Still stuck with 2 or 3 roms too which are all tweaked versions of stock because the radio interface layer is locked by samsung. They say we're supposed to get ICS(only reps, no official updates), but won't give out any dates or anything. Oh well.
