[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Zachary57:
Hi,

Can someone explain how to install the ROM.

I want to know if I have to download first grab and v3 grab and to apply them with open recovery (1 first then 3) or if I have to apply update 1 then 2 then 3 or if I have to do anything else.

Thank you
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ronnbon:
@khalpower: I really like your last rom but I cannot change the status bar icons with metamorph anymore- why is that so and how can I change it? :confused:
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] 3rdstring:
I've had good luck with this. After ZipThemer builds the update.zip (& the undo.zip) I just move the zip files from the root of my sdcard to /openrecovery/updates, reboot to OpenRecovery & apply the update.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
You install the V3 rom and then install the 2 V3 update. That s it
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Xjester:
Here is what i do ,

1 - Make partitions using Ubuntu

2- Flash to stock US bell sbf

3- Root it using superoneclick exe from laptop.

4- Copy Openrecovery to sdcard root

Copy Xtmiuioptimized in sdcard/nandroid/openrecovery/(Xtmiuioptimized)

Disconnect Phone from computer

5- Install a file manager from market ( i use ado file manager , very small 300kb )

Browse to sdcard,

6- install openrecovery

7- Reboot once

8- click on the openrecovery app, click on install recovery

super user will ask for permision , grant it

Openrecovery will tell you it has been installed

9- Click Reboot recovery

10- In recovery menu once opened

Goto Nandroid

Open restore

select Xtmiuioptimized

select restore all

11- Once done , wipe cache , factory reset

12 - reboot

13 - Copy the V3Update.zip on the sdcard in following location

sdcard/openrecovery/update/(V3update.zip)

14- Go to recovery boot once more , once there move down to update

Apply V3update.zip

Clear Cahe and Partition info

Reboot

15- Install root explorer

open root explorer

goto sd-ext

make folder "app"

16- Reboot

Now you are done , for swap kernel on do the following

Download the kernel , place it in c:/android/android-sdk-windows/tools folder ( the boot.img file )

This is assuming you have installed your SDK in the above directory , if not locate your tools folders and copy there in tools folder

run cmd

go to the tools folder ( C:\> cd android

C:\android> cd android-sdk-windows

C:\android\android-sdk-windows> cd tools

C:\android\android-sdk-windows\tools> )

Connect the phone (make sure USB debugging is checked on in settings>applications>development )

Type adb devices , if it lists some number and device in the end of the number your good to go

Type the following

C:\android\android-sdk-windows\tools> adb reboot bootloader

This will reboot your phone to bootloader menu, the phone will wake up and when it says following proceed to next step

Battery OK

Ok to Program

Transfer Mode:

USB

Now type the following

C:\android\android-sdk-windows\tools> fastboot boot boot.img

The phone will show progress and then say finished

It will automatically restart.

Once the phone is alive again go to settings > phone information to verify the new kernel is there

You are now good to go ( Remember whenever you reboot the phone and want to swap kernel again you will have to fastboot again from computer )
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ronnbon:
Thank you, will give it a try... I like my notification icons clear and white and will have them back. ;)

Edit:

Did not work for me... I used the script you recommended- the update was applied without any problems but after reboot nothing changed...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Cesantony:
Well i just want to say that i get the fjfalcon kernel, but in a some moment my phone block and i have to pull the battery. I did all that like 4 times and 4 times my phone blocked.

I have 120Mb for swap, maybe i need more, or what you think?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] 3rdstring:
What morph are you trying to apply?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] djkron:
newbie issue

Hello, I recently put the V3 on my xt along with the two updates without issue, just learning my SDK to put in the new kernal.

My problem is this, Link2sd runs and when I try to mount my ext2 partition which is primary it says:

Mount Script cannot be created.

mount: Invalid argument

I have tried to reboot the phone and I am about to try to reinstall link2sd.

If you know of this issue or a fix let me know!

Thanks

Update, tried to reinstall it and no luck, i did use root explorer and put the app folder in my ext2 partition as instructed and still no luck

Update I reinstalled Link2sd and rebooted my phone, now its looping, going to try and reinstall EVERYTHING AGAIN.

Update If I remove my sd card the phone boots fine, I put the card back in when the phone boots and then the Link 2 sd now says error no such device!
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fjfalcon:

[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Cesantony:
Thanks khal and fjalcon for this v4.

khal, a question, what you mean with "- new swapon from fjfalcon ( fix bootloop with fastboot )" sorry if i don't understand at first, but i need some explications.

Thanks
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fjfalcon:
Well, that fix problem when some users tryed to boot mine kernel.. and get bootloop...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ghostboy:
Is this update include the V3 update and the Camera patch?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] khalpowers:
Nope..only what I stated..
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Cesantony:
Oooo ok, I see... well i have already the v4, let's see how it works.

Gracias
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Hahutzy:
Slightly confused... I'm using xav's wanted rom right now.

If I want to use khal's V4 rom, do I flash it with open recov, or do i flash v3 and update it to v4?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] khalpowers:
Yes ...correct..flash v3 then update to v4...v4 only patch ..
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ronnbon:

[Milestone XT720 Android Development] smoki3:
Does the v4 automaticly Boot the Kernel without a PC?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
After applying the update and wipe dalvik cache it boot very slowly...

after few apps update it freeze and now it is stock in bootloop........

Any idea????
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ronnbon:
thank you- that worked- but what did you do different? I really don't want to ask you for help when I want to change something... as kind and helpfull you alway are... :p

what does this means?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] khalpowers:
Load with new kernel or stock kernel?..mine work fine but I feel that new kernel not Gud as 1st kernel from fjfalcon...like a bit slow...now I'm revert back to 1st kernel ...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] khalpowers:
the framework with extended menu not support metamorph...Vm heap size basically is just how much ram/memory an app is allowed to use before android has to start "trash collecting" or "tidy up" the app usage.

default is 24..
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ronnbon:
thanks for the explanation...

ahem, if I cannot use metamorph for theming anymore- may you could do another update zip for me with the morph themes attached? I accidently grabed the wrong battery morph and still miss a signal theme...:rolleyes:

Will be the last morph update I ask you for- promised!!! :D
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] khalpowers:
here i attached the update .:)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] pillar2004:
Can you make a download link with nandroid file?

Khal, would it be possible to create a link to download your latest version in a nandroid file with boot & system .img files and .md5 files to install by restoring with open recovery?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] khalpowers:
Yes...I will upload soon v4 rom ..which is improve on camera and more stable than v3..no more fc on Facebook comments page even more fast when loading 100++ over comments..come with galaxyxt theme...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Knoedelkopf:
By the way.. I know that Motorola's bootloader is still locked. (:mad:)

but what actually happens if we replace the system.img , boot.img ........ in openrecovery with other files from a phone with 2.3 ? will there be an error ? won't the phone boot then ??
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Hmmm. Do you have any idea why that could be? I'm hopefully finishing up the framework edits to fix the radio volume in the next days and if I know how to fix metamorph I'll do that too.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Replacing boot.img is impossible and that is not likely to change ever.

You can't just copy signed kernels from other Motorola phones because Motorola bakes the partition table into the kernel and also the boot.img may be the wrong size. If you modify the boot.img or have the wrong signature (not sure if the signing keys are the same across phones--but I doubt it) the phone will only boot into Motorola recovery (not open recovery). You'll have to go back to SBF at that point.

Porting system.img is probably possible, but you have to port all the hijacks, fix the initialization and possibly adjust things to match the different kernel (that's what Dexter did--he brought us a Milestone 2.2 system.img).
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
It's sort of pointless to keep downloading boot.img isn't it? There's only one used by everybody.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
I load it with stock kernel...

To be honest if i understand all if you change the kernel to use the swap you have to boot from boot.img everytime you reboot your phone... And i don t want to make my phone unusable if i don t have a pc...

So i don t touch the kernel at all... I just install your V3miui with all the update and that last update brick it...

I wait for your new upload to unbrick my phone... (i hope today......)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fwals:
I have successfully solved the problem ... I put the radio volume inside the radio k deleted. Installed a FAdio solve the volume problem.

This is to solve the volume of the radio ..
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] syrenz:
So if I want to go from Mioa7ae's patch V2 to yours with all latest updates, I first download the V3 Rom optimized with Miui and then have to apply each update after that individually? Is that correct?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
it is correct !
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
That works!

I still think the framework approach is better, though so I'll finish it. With the app you can only change the volume when the screen is on and you are inside the FMRadio app. Updating the framework is the only way to change radio volume outside of the FMRadio app and when the screen is locked (similar to music playback).
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] syrenz:
Thanks, guess I'll do the updates later then. Yay, finally put on Khal's rom succesfully :)

EDIT:

hey... the gb keyboard is preloaded but this time the keys are a much better height and size! (I've been using the one from the market for the past while and the keys always felt too small, but the prediction was great). Thanks Khal!

And the multitouch on the keyboard works as well as opposed to one on market... finally I'm no longer desperate for someone to make the droid multitouch keyboard work... :)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
You d better put all the update just after installing the rom because of the wipe of dalvik cache and data.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fwals:
.. Look forward to your work that the gallery also key to solve it? 112
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] djkron:
problems!!!! need help

Ok I had put the V3 on my phone sucessfully, then I restarted it and it would boot loop, even after I applied the updates. Including v4. I would have to remove my memory card to get it to boot, but when it finally loaded I would have the lock screen, slide it open and have nothing but the notification bar at the top, the rest was black.

HELP!!!!!

Also does anyone else have an issue like mine for playing back videos from say thecomedynetwork.ca , i have tried opera, skyfire, dolphin and the stock browser and they all are stuttering, even when on wifi!

Did I screw up the process? I followed the install as described and applied the updates indivudually and after clear the dalvik, PLEASE HELP THIS POOR NOOB!!!!

Also my link 2 sd never seems to mount properly just get an error message, it may mount once then i restart and the phone bootloops!
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] syrenz:
Yeah, I thought of that thanks. I just can't do it immediately. But I'm not going to install any apps or stuff before I do it because of the wiping and stuff. Thanks

Also I want to see if there's an actual issue with V4 update considering you and the above poster seem to have issues with it...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
Good idea to try with out sd

I did it. And i was stuck in the same black screen as you but you can push the power button and go to the recovery

I did it (you have also to put your sd back with out remove the battery and before the recovery load.... kind of difficult but possible)

I m restoring my last nandroid backup now..

we will see

edit: it works !!!!!! I have my old backup working fine and with out any data/factory reset!!! I won t try the v4 update now just waiting for the full rom
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] mediaon:
i have one question...there's 4 updates now..do i need to apply each of them or just apply the latest one after flashing the khal's rom?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] djkron:
does anyone have problems playing videos from thecomedynetwork.ca? I never had this issue till now and all my browsers stutter, opera, skyfire, dolphin and regular browser
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fwals:
led off the boot time. off the screen to open started.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] donant14:
i still get boot loops every time i want to boot boot.img from bootloader to enable swap kernel. This is even after applying v4update that fixes bootloop.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Cesantony:
i had install the v4 and when i boot the boot.img for enable swap it works fine, some times my phone have screen frozen, but since i installed v4, no more screen frozen but now some times i feel it a little slow, when i load or closse some apps.

[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ghostboy:
Nice Work!! But I have two questions want to ask:

1. fwals has been released the FMRadio.apk that can fix the radio volume problem, is this rom include this fix?

2. app2ext ready (ext2/ext3/ext4), that means this kernel support ext4 directly? Or need to load swap kernel first? Thanks.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Caveat: I haven't had time to load this yet, I'm just looking around after extracting system.img on my computer.

One (minor) issue: there are two memhack scripts (one in init.c and one in init.d). Generally this isn't a problem, but these look like they will come into conflict if a users tries to move dalvik-cache to the ext partition. If /sd-ext/dalvik-cache exists at boot, the init.c version will move dalvik-cache there instead of to /cache and it will also delete /cache/dalvik-cache. Then later in the boot process the init.d one will run and remove the symlink to /sd-ext/dalvik-cache and set dalvik-cache on /cache instead. So I think in that case it will cause dalvik to be constantly rebuilt on /cache each boot. It's a problem only if the user tries to move dalvik-cache to /sd-ext.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Glen L:
boot loop after overclocking 1200 mhz
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] reverendkjr:
I think I'm going to quit using dalvik-cache on my sd card anyway. I have noticed a slight decrease in speed as a result of this. It's not a lot, but it's noticeable. I'm downloading this right now to load, and I'll just kill my dalvik-cache directory before doing so.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
I haven't used dalvik or app on SD for a while since I found out about memhack. I've been waiting for /cache or /data to fill up before moving app or dalvik to sd-ext. It's not looking like it will be any time soon, though. I'm not even bothering with Link2SD anymore at the moment.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Please describe in more detail what you did. Did you set the speed in Milestone Overclock or use the oc-settings file? Does the phone run fine at 1200 MHz and then sometime later you reboot and it doesn't come back up? Do you have an ext partition on your SD card?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] reverendkjr:
I still use an "app" folder on my ext3 because I love having all of my apps just pop back up after a reflash. :D But I think I'm done with the rest for a while.

First boot after flash.... coming up.:cool:
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Glen L:
Hi, I used Milestone Overclock.

Back in Dexter's Rom I also used 1200mhz.

I've been running 1200Mhz for about a month now. After installing the this rom I ran it at 1200Mhz and it hanged. About rebooting, it went on infinite bootloops, so now I flashed it again but without overclocking right now. Yes I have a class 4 SD card

By the way so far so good right now. Except for the theme and font. Theme is a bit dark, and font is hard to read. other than that great work! Thanks!

BTW, how can you change fonts?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] khalpowers:
Actually this rom is without themed framework .This is original framework.

regarding on fonts if you don't have root explorer or adb thingy you can use this to change the fonts .

just tested with oc setting script on my sd which is 1.2 ghz 77vsel...never counter any problem so far...booting fine.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
It's possible that the graphics acceleration tweak is more demanding than in the stock Dexter ROM, so perhaps your vsel is too low. If it happens again, you can go into OpenRecovery and use USB access mode to the SD card (or adb) to disable "Set on boot" for Milestone Overclock by deleting the file: /sdcard/Android/data/pt.com.darksun.milestoneoverclock/files/autoload You should be able to boot fine after that and re-enter Milestone Overclock.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] cdstewart:
Oooh! Sweet boot animation, I loved the honeycomb one but now I don't know which one to use! :D
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] reverendkjr:
After testing for a bit, I had SetCPU force close on me, then I uninstalled/reinstalled it and now it works fine. I also had a few other apps that were on my ext3 partition in my app directory that FC'd on me and I had to reload. I'm not sure what that means.

Other than that, I noticed that Milestone Overclock was missing and I had to grab that from the market. I overclocked to 1000mhz, loaded SD Speed Boost, and SetCPU to get me back to my normal setup. I rebooted a few times, tested the basics, and all seemed well.

Quadrant gave me 1200.

Linpack gives 13.8

Seems to be just as snappy as previous versions. I did notice that the camera/video sounds are still present, so i renamed them myself.

W00t.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] cdstewart:
How do you manually remove those sounds?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] reverendkjr:
I used root explorer to browse out to /system/media/audio/ui/ and renamed camera_click.ogg & VideoRecord.ogg.

Now, the sounds are gone.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
