I ran checkdisk but still not saving the record while video recording how can i fix it?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] kousik:
I apologize if I should have read openrecovery code before talking, but when we install any of these ROMs, we do so by "applying updates". I agree these updates are really large in size, but does it really erases /system? How OR knows the difference if an update just replaces /system/app/foobar.apk|.odex The other possibility is if install_script.sh inside the update.zip does it, but I just opened a random MIUI-Galnet-ICS-1.11.9-XT720-J.Y.Daddy.zip and just saw it replaces /system/persistent. So isn't there a risk of leftover apk/odex from the previous rom? I agree when you apply update on a fresh sbf too, same risk exist but maybe much lesser.

I am curious because I have been bitten by instability when applying updates over updates, and that was gone when I applied on a fresh sbf.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] bagongs:
I know you probably already know, fj...but it's better to report one thing more than one less :D

During the charge (with the phone switched off) the screen still stays awake...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
The updater-script does it explicitly with:

format("MTD", "system");

I guess it's possible there's a bug in OpenRecovery. I'll check to make sure this actually erases /system.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] kousik:
In that case, threads like http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1439978 (which customizes the status bar and nothing else) will be a problem, right? They provide just 1 piece of .apk (and .odex) and asks us to go to OR and apply the update. Erasing /system would have a unwanted side effect then.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
No, it's not a problem. updater-scripts don't *have* to wipe /system but they *can* if necessary. It's up to the creator of the updater-script. Full ROM installs like fjfalcon's CM7 update do wipe /system. A theme/patch/hotfix/small tweak like the one you linked does not. updater-scripts are very flexible. ;)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] brianlili:
Just curious, I think you difine a short click media_key intent, but somehow, end it up long-press intent. Have you check it?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] kousik:
Thanks, this is exactly what I was looking for. It is not the job of OR, and can't be. The hooks of the update script may do so if it knows what it is doing (installing new ROM). Still then, Miui of J Y Daddy doesn't (which misled me); and this one does.

So lesson is, if we're applying JY's ROM it is better to apply on a fresh SBF whereas FJ's can be applied on top of any, because it'll clean the house before occupancy.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] mchlbenner:
All you need to whip all data a fresh sbf will not make a j.y.daddy any better.

I been using his roms alot I only sbf flash I can't get to open recovery.

I done this before and never I saw better performance from rom because I sbf flash first.

One thing I use minmod open recovery.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] secret_tidus:
i update and update and still get the camera problem... phone will freeze when capture picture.. i think it is the sd problem.. since the camera will function well after reboot, i think it related to free ram issue..
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] kousik:
Just as an experiment, change the camera resolution to SXGA/VGA before shooting. In that case the image size will be a few 100 KB or less. If in that mode you can operate, maybe it is a free memory issue. Try running a task killer before starting camera (though shouldn't be needed).

Another experiment you can do is to use a low capacity SD card. When I put 16G or 32G, it freezes several times when writing. Same operation never blocks in a 2G or 4G card. Also try increasing your vsel, that may be needed to drive your card.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] secret_tidus:
i will try tat.... but now my camera keep fc, i install and uninstall using darkyrom several time ald... trying camera360

[Milestone XT720 Android Development] pables123:
I also found 1 problem about waking the phone it wakes but no display for unlocking it. Hope it will be fixed on the next build.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Woody:
I updated the OP on the Build.Prop mod page with this. Is it just the battery tweaks or are none of them working correctly? Let me if anything else is or is not working and I will update accordingly. I still frequent and read the threads daily.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] mchlbenner:
I just took 20 pictures no freeze .

I have vm heap set at 36.

I calibrated battery and ran it to it turned off and last night 8 hours sleep only used 10% of battery.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ruler1976:
do i need this file also if so how do i apply CyanogenMod-7.2.0-MilestoneXT720-20120130-KANG-signed.zip.md5sum
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
You don't need it. You can optionally use it to verify that the .zip downloaded from the web without errors before trying to install it. But you can also skip that without much worry for *signed* update .zip's -- the .md5sum basically duplicates the functionality of the signatures inside the signed update.zip. Signed updates are automatically scanned for damage before they are applied.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
So how is this rom after some days of use??? Someone is using it???

What is working and what s not ?????

another question @fjfalcon i see in your archive that you make another version the 20120201 what s new???? Is it a real new version or just a test one????
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] bradlim:
Is it possible to port it in XT720 Motoroi?

running about a week

Running this rom about a week on a US XT720.

Everything working well. Memory management has been very good (compared to previous releases).

(1) issue - my text messaging is not working properly. a few days ago, it started having an error when trying to send a text message. I recieve texts no problem.

Anyone know of a quick fix?

thanks...:D

Never mind! I restored the SMS app from titanium backup & works again.

Going up... new build.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] pables123:
Fj can u tell us wats new in ur latest build... im using it now i still have problem ib recording a video how can i fix it?any suggestion?the camera us working fine
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fjfalcon:
Take a hammer and break with it your sdcard.

And buy new one, ofcourse=)

I have everything working fine.

With fastboot kernel, or with stock one.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
No reboot!!!??????

Sure?????

Are you using the mod sbf or not?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fjfalcon:
Sure, no reboot.

I don't using mod sbf.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] pables123:
Can u give me link for fastboot kernels?wat sd card is recomended to use i use 8 gb.hope it will be fix ill try to flash fresh sbf to fix my video recording. Nice work fj
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
A working one... just buy one the fastest you can (class 6 class10)

Here is the kernels http://xt720.ru/Files/Kernel/

but i don t know which one it s better to use
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] pables123:
Is it normal when you fastboot and when you restart the phone it goes back to normal kernel?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
yes you have to use quick reboot
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] pables123:
So if that happen for in instance youre phone's juice run out you have to fastboot again?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] brianlili:
LCD backlight issue still exist, media key needs long-press too.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
Yes that the big problem with fastboot and that s why most of the people don t use it. You have to fastboot everytime you boot it except if you have it already fastbooted you can use quickreboot to reboot without loosing the fastboot
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] pables123:
my only problem is the camcorder i have 8gb class 4 sd card. what do u suggest to fix it?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] mchlbenner:
If it is the one that came with it get a new the one it came with is not a good sdcard.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Nice build! No reboots so far, but I've never had them in the past either. I'm not having any problems using modsbf using the kxtf9-fix.ko module approach to fix the orientation sensor. I'll clean the module up a little bit, and then put a pull request up.

fjfalcon, can you make a boot.img that has compcache/zram -- I think I'd like to try that instead of a swap partition. I've been trying but even just a plain recompile of str_defconfig keeps crashing a few minutes after booting. What toolchain do you use?

brianlili, the LCD problem is in charge_only_mode?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] brianlili:
It is in charging without android system runing, shut down phone, plug ac power, and phone will boot in to a charge status, lcd backlight won't shut down the whole time.

Will the market not FC on me everytime here? Has anyone had that happen? I installed the previous one straight from ESBv2 which is a 2.1 ROM and the market force closed on me every time. Would like to know if that's going to happen again or if there's something I need to do to prevent that from happening.

Thanks
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Did you apply the cyanogenmod gapps package? (Not saying that it works--I haven't had time to try this ROM yet--just a suggestion)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
I tried and it didn't work. It shows market in app management but not in apps. I Haven't tried restoring with Titanium backup yet, I think I will try that.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fjfalcon:
Use wipe data or add google account, you a I'll get market
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] syrenz:
Yep, didn't work. I also tried installing market by itself manually but it wouldn't let me add a google account without flashing the gapps package. Tried clearing market data, cache and tried a bunch of other things but couldn't get market to work for more than 3 seconds. :(
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fjfalcon:
One man making and one man standing.. it's good... yes.

But when team working together - that much better.

For that we make "organization" in github, where everyone can commit his patch to source.

I will also make nightly build server ,that will make nightly build every day in 0:00 gmt.

So, everyone may join to our "organization" =)

I having tweaking the memory on this and found the right settings for this system I will not release quite yet not quite done testing yet.

This good enough for everyday use.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] syrenz:
New version hasn't fixed my market problems. Still force closes for whatever reason. However, I can install apps from my computer using online market just fine so not a big deal atm.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] mchlbenner:
these are what I'm using for market all work correct no problems.

delete those files install if you can't install

you need system appremover and then just restore them to your system and reboot phone.View attachment GoogleServicesFramework.apk

[Milestone XT720 Android Development] warrenkb:
Easily the best rom out there for the XT720, once the camera issues are sorted out there is no reason to use any other rom. Even with the camera issues, there is no reason to use any other rom.

Thanks FJ
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
I m testing this rom for about 1hout and it seems fast and stable but no way to make the market work...

It s weird it look like a google account problem i can t connect to my account when i launch the market it ask me to connect to my account and i have the choice between a microsoft exchange account and a facebook one... (i try the both and it don t work) no way to connect to google...

I try your market update 3dstring and yours apks mchlbenner and it don t work (the apks don t want to install and the update seems to work but it s the same it ask for a google account...)

BTW this is the last version: Android Market 3.2.0 I use the update way to install and it s the same (no google account)...

And i forget to say that the ext don t work for me with the 10162011 version

I had to install the ext update by fwals you can found it here
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] warrenkb:
There is a newer version 10162011 that works with 3rds market update applied via OR. I just did it this morning and it is fine.

[Milestone XT720 Android Development] bagongs:
I guess you refer to the Performance settings, since the others are customizable as you wish.

I set the CPU using SetCPU (and not the CM settings), 1000Mhz peak, 250 for the lowest value. Conservative/Interactive governors work fine for me, whereas smartass doesn't seem to improve neither performance nor battery life.

Enabled: Use JIT, allow purging of assets, disable boot animation (quicker power up), scrolling cache --> default enable.

VM heap size set using VM Heap tool to 24M, because if you use higher values it is likely that you will experience a big drop in the available RAM after some hours.

LOck home in memory and Lock messaging app disables because they eat a lot of RAM (I have never lost any message in low memory situations).

16 bit transparency is a mistery: Mioze7ae, our developer says that leaving it enabled improves multi-tasking, honestly I didn't find any defference between having it enabled and disabled. But I trust our developer, so I leave it enabled. :)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
I did the same except some tweaks:

I don tuse set cpu (for me another running app have to eat more ram) i prefer use the cm7 config (in settings performance) and i set it ondemand

I enable the boot animation (i don t care for the 2s less in booting...)

I use 32VM heap size i know that Mz and kaldaban says it useless but i fell it more speedy with this (like mhlbenner who put it at 36 but there is not the option in this rom)

but the big difference is that i always enable to lock home and mes in memory (i already lost messages and the home often redraw all without)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] mchlbenner:
use this heaptool.

I recommend 32 only problem is at 36 it can cause reboots.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] nitu_vats:
thanks bagongs, B_e_n and mchlbenner.

i will use as reccomended.

sometimes it's very laggy, why? after several hours of using like 4-5 hours, my phone starts to go crazy, very lag. sometimes i get a force close dialog box for Android System.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
I have them too i don t know why... But it lag a little bit and speed up after

yesterday i take out my phone (it was the morning so it had at least 50% of battery) and no reaction the screen stay black even when i try to reboot it. I plug it and it boot (and with 40% battery left!!!)

Another mistery of the milestone.....
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Similya:
a question to all devs.

all system apps and or frameworks/res. uses graphics that is used as UI right.?

does this graphics also consumes system resources/memory.?

if so, what will be the drawbacks if we degrade the graphics quality?

assuming from 24bit True Color convert to 16bit High Color. will it help make it snappier?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

do you know any guides in editing media_profiles.xml?

when recording videos from the stock camera app using High settings, it uses the "m4v"codec to create .m4v file extension and m4v file container in the video stream and "aac" in the audio stream.

the playback in phone using "MX Video - SW Fast Decode", audio/video is choppy and has un-synchronized audio. using also the "HW Decode of MX Video" the playback is smooth but un-synchronized audio.

Both also has the same playback issue in PC.

is it possible to change the video codec from "m4v" to "mpeg4" or "mp4"?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fjfalcon:
Got fixed "goddess" bug with fm radio volume switching.

[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fjfalcon:
1. well.. i get it working from your finding of android.policy.

And it's working from long keypress... and i don't know why..

Will study it more.

Maybe problem that keyevent for longpress and llitle press are different.

Ok, tomorrow will add translations to Settings.apk.

Well.. i don't know how peshovec mediagallery port..

btw, it's long time i haven't read anything from him, is he alright?

Maybe he is on vacation now.
