Thank you milaq and nadlabak

I thought you'd like to know that we've had initial success porting your CM6 (0.10) to Milestone XT720. Thank you for making your repositories public. I'm figuring out how to upload my tree, but I just wanted to say thanks.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] PhoenixNghi:
I like CM6's smoothness than FM's, very amazing!

But please add long press option to the status bar widgets to open the corresponding settings and plz check LED notification in CM settings, I cannot light some color: white, cyan,..etc
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] stexyn:
Can you please explain how to do that?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] milaq:
nice, good to hear that.

feel free to pull in upstream changes, as we are already on 0.12 ;)

happy modding,

cheers
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] eami:
I've applied the new market update (3.0.26) and now every time I try to buy something it force close.

Anyone else experienced this problem?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] bandroid842:
Hey!

Great work really. I just have TWO questions:

1- Is there RTL and Arabic Support?

2- By GB cursor, you mean we have GB-like cut/copy/paste?

These are my two main reasons for being on CM7
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
yeah and it works very good in text input areas, i have still the old one in the browser when i want to copy from a page, but it feels more accurate too... or it could just be my imagination.

hi milaq ...

ROM is awesome, my battery for those who ask is better then froyomod.

one bug that i found is in power widget (i think is called)

i have 6 buttons, i don't know how i managed to activate flash light twice but now i cant deactivate-it because it doesn't appear in settings and i have only 4 buttons active in settings and 6 in widget. I'll make some screen shots if you need it. also flashlight button doesn't work :)

request if it's possible:

-when holding the back key: terminate current application

-galaxy widget that it's cooler

this are the 2 things that i miss from FM, and the bugs :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] metalron:
Yeah actually, it did more than force closing for me. I just re-flashed gapps again. I'm guessing the new market has been updated for 2.2 and up by now right? or does that not apply for CM's? either ways, its just eye candy.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] hearts king101:

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] milaq:
weird. pls up some screenshots so i can see what exactly you mean

actually, "stop app via long press" is available under settings->applications->development

cheers
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zviki:
I dont understand this RAM thing on Android.More apps I close,less RAM I have.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zviki:
Sorry,double post
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
actually i like the CM Mod one more =)

but it would be cool to have the feature to rearrange the buttons, and "don't show the on/off indicator as in CM7 for it.

also the permission management would be a nice thing.

i'm quite happy with this mod for now! thx

but one thing i see everytime my phone runs longer than 3 days is that it uses more and more memory.

at bootup it barely goes beyond 60mb - but after a few days of use without reboot it actually can went up to more than 70-80 unfreeable, not going down anymore. a quick reboot solves this for some time, but i'm curious if there is a leak somewhere.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] i2gh0st:
danke :)

i didn't know about that setting.

anyway.. pictures
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] bandroid842:
Hey!

What about Arabic and RTL? Can i type and read Arabic on this? Thanks :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] hearts king101:
Yes, After some modifications:

1- Use Madmack patch to fix Arabic ( Version 0.789 )

2- Use attached libwebcore,so file to fix Arabic in browser.....etc.

BTW: Do nandroid backup just in case.

Good luck ;)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] grimpy:
For arranging the order of the CM power thingy just enable them in the order you want to display them when u add the widget this helps, i know its not perfect but it does work :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mcdevtingz:
@milaq nice ROM but I get reboots.

Can you tell me how to enable dsi workaround?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mickgrand:
First of all: Great ROM, really fast and stable. Keep the good work ;)

In 0.12 the "Gingerbread Cursor" has been added. Is there any customization possible? Maybe to resize the cursor a bit, so it doesn't overlay so much of the "W"-Key on the android-keyboard?

If not, maybe there's a way to disable it? An option in the Cyanogenmod-Settings-Menu would be great ;)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] tien8tien:
Totally agree with dmo580 ... these CM6 mods from milaq is the best compromize between speed and usability for the Milestone ... thanks so much for these releases !!!!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 4tticuz:
Missed 3 calls from my consultant, not funny!!!

Any one else with that problem?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] usrname:
no problems so far

but is there an updated version of gb theme? my first try installing it ended in a bootanim loop.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] eami:
my wife just told me that she was calling me but i didn't pick up to phone... no missed call in the history :/

edit: false alert - she dialled my other number:D lol
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rionline:
yeah funny would be using stock-rom an blaming motorola....

if you have o2....3g is sometimes buggy: no calls and no internet (full signal strength on display)....if something is important...use 2g. every mobile in my region has this problem.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 4tticuz:
Thannks for the hint, but Im using 2g most time.

And my provider is Vodafone :/

Any other ideas?

That bug is quite uncool and makes me to use another rom, too sad cause this CM is quite fast...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rionline:
I have no such problems. I love this Rom ;)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] fe3zan:
theme cm4mm

i cant seem to download the theme using cm4mm updater.configured the server already.it says network unreachable when downloading.help plizz.thaanxx.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] bandroid842:
It would be fantastic if we could integrate the patch bu HeartsKing for Arabic and RTL into the mod. Would make the ROM perfect! MILAQ please consider it?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Vatazhka:
That's not a good advice. Setting 2G only mode actually reduces your chances to pick up important calls. Whenever data transmission kicks in (think account sync), your mobile will be unreachable. However, people calling you should be notified of this with a prerecorded message or redirected to your voice mail.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Vatazhka:
Milaq, thank you for picking up CM6 development! Using CM6 on Milestone feels like a breeze compared to CM7.

I have a question - as per Kabaldan's note (http://android.doshaska.net/cm6), the release 0.07 has been patched with a diff between AOSP 2.2.1 and 2.2.2. Could you please confirm whether all changes brought by Android 2.2.2 have been backported to this ROM and update the About section if needed?

Similarly, are you planning to include a fix for CVE-2011-2357 / Android Browser Cross-Application Scripting vulnerability (http://seclists.org/bugtraq/2011/Aug/7) once a patch for FroYo has been published?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rionline:
hmm i am thinking that you are wrong about this. what sense would a smartphone make, if every data-transmission blocks the telephone signal... that logic sound like 1998 where you had to dialup your internet-connection...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] i2gh0st:
it's the network tower (to old)

I have the same problem In one area but it's in a middle of noware :-))), also in Bucharest everything it's fine.

Complaining to network operator didn't help for me so I wish u good luck :-)

Sent from my Milestone
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Vatazhka:
2G is actually from the 90's :) Technically speaking, both handheld and network have to support a specific extension called Dual Transfer Mode. I don't think it's been adopted by my operator and/or their roaming partner, at least not in the rural areas where I was using 2G (I normally use 3G since it works OK).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] terpsych:
Is there any possibility to block data transfer (internet) without blocking mms?

Any wigdet working with our cm 6.1.2 (I mean apn-droid like)

terpsych
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] milaq:
just do a "echo 1 > /sys/devices/omapdss/display0/update_mode" through term or include it in an init script.

i've been playing with different sizes and maybe i'll make it a bit more decent :)

that's the default behaviour of android. don't get caught in checking "free" ram every hour or so (i know it is tempting to do so :)). actually, the memory management on android is pretty good as it distributes the resources as needed. furthermore, you never know whether the garbage collector has been invoked recently or not and naturally as your uptime passes by you open more and more apps which also cache and prep data in ram (which will be cleared if necessary).

to put it in a nutshell (as very often stated in the xda forums): don't worry about free mem on an android device as long as your apps don't get killed.

that's very weird o.O try to clear CMSettings' data and/or a cache wipe.

we are virtually on 2.2.2 as the release was only mandatory - no new features, only small bugfixes (the most are included).

as a matter of fact we have a bunch of features from 2.3.x resp. cm7 by now (and more to come) ;)

cheers
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] i2gh0st:
oky...if you put it like this, i think this is my doing..

but can't fix it .. with what you suggested or retracing my foot steps.

so can anybody help and tell me ware can i find the database for apps stored in system folder and for those stored in data ? :-D

thanks milaq
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] sagarparmar:
This ROM is very fast and responsive. Thanks Milaq! :)

My battery life sucks. lasts only 8 hours with 2G data connection. I saw some post regarding battery life and applying ULV pack from FroyoMod. I actually tried to apply that but it got stuck at boot prompt and rebooted. Is there anything we can do about improving battery life?? I want at least one day with data connection. Not heavy usage but moderate.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] milaq:
well, i repoduced your problem by messing with the CMParts data manually and was succesful in destroying the widget settings (wasn't easy ;)).

i had exactly the same behaviour as you have. the problem is that your CMParts settings are now out of sync with the providers.settings db.

to fix it follow these steps:

untoggle all widget buttons in CMSettings->User interface->Widget buttons except "Toggle Wifi".

then from a terminal EXACTLY these steps:

su
sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
.table (it should list a few tables; if not you mistyped something above)
update system set value='toggleWifi' where name='expanded_widget_buttons';
.quit

go to Widget settings again, untoggle/toggle wifi and hide/show the whole widget.

your settings should be now in sync with the db and you can check those widget you want to use.

8 hours under moderate usage is way to little and definately not normal. i get 8 hours with heavy usage (3g streaming, working via ssh, etc.)

check your battery history (esp. cpu/network/partial wake usage) through spare parts and see what app causes this. futhermore check your battery health by monitoring its current (4200 is a full charge). consider cleaning your system from unnecessary apps and/or getting a fresh battery (not a third party one from ebay). lowering vsels could also help.

cheers
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] szacuken:
-uhh sorry, delete- :/
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] sagarparmar:
Hi Milaq, thanks for replying. I checked my battery history and I see that CPU usage - Total in all time gives Android System -57m 1 sec and textfree app 56m 9s. That is not at all normal. Right?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] milaq:
android system is okay.

but i assume you are using Textfree for fb chat and so. and the cpu time textfree uses suggests that you are using it alot. of course that consumes a lot of battery as it is an instant on connection. but even then the app shouldn't use that much cpu time. if you want to squeeze as much battery juice out of your phone you have to get rid of such apps ;)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] i2gh0st:
i'm using ulv 550 .... from froyomod but i uncommented some lines about conservative governor (last 3)

attached sample ..

milaq thanks for reply.. you wore write .. it should work, but what i managed to mess up if far grater :))

tried your settings twice didn't misspelled anything because i hit copy paste.

also i edited the database with sqlite, even deleted the bloody lines in order to be written again, nothing, the buttons keep reappear in the line. i'm gonna keep researching. any other suggestions are welcomed.

Edit::

hmm.. never mind i manually edited the line deleted the buttons from database (except wifi), rebooted and it's ok ..

also thanks for pointing me to database settings.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] milaq:
i resized the text selection cursor so that it is less obtrusive, much more sleek and not obscuring any letter on the SIP.

pls post your opinions.

thx

see attached images
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] i2gh0st:
it looks ok.

when can we test it ?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] grimpy:
Hi Milaq would it be possible for you to include the ADWLauncher version of CM7, it doesnt require any mods to run on froyo the gingerbread version is 100% compatible... For now i ported the CM7 version to a standalone version would be nice to see it integrated though
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] milaq:
new ADWLauncher already included ;)

new version is up. i changed the version numbering convention (see note in changelog).

for all those that downloaded the rom right ahead (approx. 15-20 ppl according to the download stats) - pls redownload the package as i accidentially uploaded an older nightly build from yesterday. the download is fixed by now. sry for the inconvinience.

cheers
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Awesome work, Milaq. Too bad my milestone is just not usable. Wish you had started earlier. XT720 users are also getting a flavour of your rom, thanks to Mioze.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] joker2mbr:
Awesome ROM. Very nice of you to continue CM6 development. Thanks a lot!

CM7 is really great, but GB is very resource hungry... CM6 is lighter. :)

About the latest update (6.3.0): we don't have a GB theme for this version already, do we? I'll wait for it.

Keep up the great work.

Best regards
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] innovationz:
thanks milaq for the awesome rom...but should i activate swap in this rom?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Rotundjere:
yes, very true..

CM7 for milestone is great, but is not really usable for daily use (it's too lag, slow response, app force close, etc) ;)

@milaq: do you know how to add this cool feature magnifying glass, from HTC sensation

:D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vadonka:
the latest cm7 gb rom memory leak is almost fixed by nadlabak. it is fast and light, some case even faster than cm6

Thanks for your 10overclock. I applied it and it seems to be working fine. But still need to do some testing will keep u updated ;)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] sagarparmar:
Newer version of the apps?

@Milaq, As you said, you have updated ADW. But it would be great if you can update File Manager (latest version of OI file manager is nice) and some other apps like fb, twitter.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] starky1967:
After update the Market to v3.0.26- no reboots more.

But I've another problem- I use LauncherPro and it works fine with version "11.07.17 - 0.11", with version 6.3.0 I get strange screen behavior- sometimes if I touch long a desktop shortcut (eg. "Contacts") it a homescreens preview opened, like by pressing the "Home" button.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] PhoenixNghi:

Updated today to 6.3.0, works fine. I love the update manager! ;)

@Milaq: ive applied the 3g and kernel tweaks of zeppelinrox, they increased performance a lot. Using memory script as well (balanced) - snappier phone and more apps in bg. I suppose you already know 'em, anyway! ;)

Still having strange battery behaviour tho - it suddently goes down of xx%, randomly. Anyway i can getv easily 16 hrs in 3g w/ push mail etc (awesome!).

Ciao,

Thx for you work

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] milaq:
Gingerbread theme for 6.3.0 is available. download through CM4MM Updater from my themeserver.

thanks for your nice words. your battery icons still rock our gb theme for good ;)

since 0.12 you can't change your kb layout through OR. it must be changed through CMSettings.

weird. i'm using lp too but it works as expected. maybe you are getting "ghost touches" due to a broken digitizer.

will see what i can do :)

are you using the 1% battery steps? many users across different roms (including myself) are experiencing a sudden jump from 30% to 20%. if that is the case, try switching back to 10% steps and see if that solves your problem.

cheers
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
today i will call my google voice and leave a voice mail with crystal talk and crystal talk off... lol...

@milaq: Can you do anything to make the CM6 Notification bar look more like the one in CM7? Sorry IMO the CM6 one looks like total ass.... The CM7 is less cluttery, and very clean professional looking. So I guess if the icons could be changed...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rampee:
Anyone facing this issue? :(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] grimpy:
great another good reason to switch back to CM6 :) like the performance.

The next feature from CM7 which i miss is the ability to pay with the api access from the apps :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] milaq:
gingerbread theme v5 is up. new icons for the notification power widget.

have a look at /system/etc/wifi/tiwlan.ini and try to change the 802.11n settings. maybe that could help with older routers.

because of nadlabak is testing improved dsi fix v2.32... is this even relevant for 6.3.0? what about the "nand_resume" error which is still logged all the time. shouldn't it be fixed or is this unimportant as this error only notifies about already resumed components from mtd.

-edit

screenshot function is not usable most of the time. it works, but the screenshot is initiated too early, so the picture still shows a bit of the dialogue. maybe it just helps if the screenshot is delayed a second or two... where can we adjust this setting?

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] milaq:
hmmm, what you could try would be to rmmod qtoch_num for a while and see if the problem persists.

i tried to reproduce your problem but no luck. wpa/wpa2 works with both tkip and aes flawlessly for me on a d-link dir and a linksys wrt54g (even with such a long psk). on monday i'll test it out on various cisco and funkwerk bintecs routers and see what happens there.

disifx: it would be very welcome if you install the dsifix betas and help nadlabak with the testing. that would speed up the journey for the real dsifix ;)

nand_resume: you are right, that is only cosmetic. it has no known impact on functionality.
