I don't know what to do... I need my phone back...

press "x" on your keyboard to enter recovery when you see "!"
[Milestone 2 General] BlackTemplar:
How can i change the keyboard form QWERTY to Euro-QWERTZ in the newest version of CM7? I looked in Settings --> CynaogenMod but i didnt find the settings menu for the keyboard anymore.
[Milestone 2 General] Anonymous_:
Try keypadswitcher at /system/scriptbox
[Milestone 2 General] guilhermemz:
Didn't work, but thanks!

The problem was solved anway.

I tryed to press "x" but nothing happened. The screen was freezed on that "!", never changed.

I didn't know what to do anymore, so I left the phone there and went to sleep. when I woke up the phone was out of bateries. I connect the charger and it just turned on like nothing happened!

I was really scared xD
[Milestone 2 General] Anonymous_:
Hah :D You could remove your battery and reinsert it and it would be ok :)

But it's good by your way also.
[Milestone 2 General] revstickman:
Thanks ZyrByt, the file was corrupt indeed.

I installed CM7 and now I'm facing 2 issues:

My phone keeps stuck on the bue M logo, and if I remove the battery and re-insert it, it stays forever in the android boot animation (the one with the "cube")

I have tried the last 2 releases of CMT, I wiped data/cache twice when installing and it's still not working :(

can someone please tell if I'm doing something wrong?
[Milestone 2 General] guilhermemz:
I thought about it, but I was afraid to do something wrong xD

Anyway, thats good to have my phone back. When I get back home I'll try it again =)
[Milestone 2 General] puiboy:
@ rgatto : I too have problem with the widget for adw ex. I have read some post and i think that you can try to move apps that are using the widget to the internal memory of the phone. Save the adw ex setting and configuration and restart adw ex.
[Milestone 2 General] guilhermemz:
Hey... I'm in trouble again xD

This time I can't see where is my mistake. I tryed to install "EndlessCM7_20111001_Nightly_BPSW_v1_0.zip" but when I reboot the phone freezed on a screen with "Google". The first "O" is motorola's M and the second one is a blue android with a skate in a circle...

It's been like this for about a few hours.

Suggestions?

EDIT: problem solved. Enjoying CM7! =)
[Milestone 2 General] mIRChele:
i tried to install cm7 on my milestone 2 but now it is stuck on the boot logo (now it's a motorola logo with a rabbid). I haven't wiped data and cache yet because i restarted the phone and it didn't go directly to bootmenu as i thought. How can I go to the bootmenu? Is it normal?

EDIT: after a few forced restart (using battery) now it is stuck on the animated logo with the cube. Please help me

EDIT2: i managed to wipe data and cache and reinstall cm71, now it works.

There is another problem... it won't recognize my sim card (it says no service available and it says that there are no contact on the sim card). What can I do?

I changed the baseband to Europe2.2.2 900/2100 but it still doesn't work. The sim is read i'm sure about it but it still doesn't have the connection

I changed the baseband to Europe 2.2 900/2100 and now it found the connection. Unfortunately it doesn't really works: it doesn't dial numbers

[Milestone 2 General] Anonymous_:
You could do it via file manager - like Astro or ES file manager. You can also use Ringdroid - it is free on Market

[Milestone 2 General] Danfro:
I'm having the same problem as you had, I'm stuck with the motorola logo and the rabbit. How did you manage to wipe data and reinstall cm71? I can't find any alternativ in the boot menu that lets me wipe data..
[Milestone 2 General] diego-ch:
I have a german Milestone2 MotoA953, with stock rom android2.2.2

will this tutorial work on it or do I have to change baseband and etc.. ?
[Milestone 2 General] Anonymous_:
This will work. Changing baseband depends on individual custom rom - for instance Endless7's CM7 default basement is china, so with Endless7's you will have to change it to Europe. With tezet's CM7 it's europe I think...

But you will see, it's not a big deal - just install baseband switcher apk and check it (and if it's wrong, then change it).
[Milestone 2 General] skaburn:
how I can use new bootmenu? I don't know chinese and I tried whit the upper left key, but it was bootlooping, anyone can suggest me the sequence of keys I have to press?
[Milestone 2 General] DreadPirateDan:
I'm guessing you mean how do you boot into CWM?

When the notification led flashes soon after you turn the phone on, hit volume down. I normally have to press it a few times cause my buttons seem pretty crap.

EDIT: if that doesn't work, perhaps something went wrong by the sounds of that boot loop. If you can't manage to get into CWM you might have to flash stock firmware and try again
[Milestone 2 General] WhatsUserName:
Someone ever had issues trying to open the Stable Recovery menu? After flashing the latest mod for tezet's posted on Endless7 thread i just cant open it. Keeps an eternal message saying to wait a couple seconds and it just doesn't open. I will have to flash retail rom (the sbf one) and make the whole process again to instal cm7?
[Milestone 2 General] DreadPirateDan:
Well do you actually need to access it? Try entering stock recovery by holding x and power button, see if that work. I've only ever needed the latest recovery option
[Milestone 2 General] zifung:
Thanks Bro Endless7!

Now the phone runs faster~
[Milestone 2 General] ninjamanco:
Dude, I just want to say a very loud thank you very much for this ROM. It is just like having a brand new and awesome phone!!!!! I was just very angry up until now because Milestone 2 has an awesome hardware configuration but one of the worst android mod ever made. It is just very good to enjoy my phone as it shoub be since the beggining, after all i paid lots of money for it.

So, THANKS!!!

Hi endless,

Thanks!
[Milestone 2 General] milad1:
hi guys

help me please...

My phone is milestone 2 with the 2.3.4 kernel. I gave it up to cm7, I run all the instructions but when I rebooted the phone is stuck to the startup screen is black!!

thanks 4 all.
[Milestone 2 General] vanpan:
I have some questions for you:

5.download CM7 All in one update.zip from here and then put it in your sdcard

6.reboot to bootmenu and then goto custom recoery

7.apply All in one update.zip(ROM package)(I must apply one by one, or I must add all of file into one zip file)

8.reboot to bootmenu again!

10.wipe data/cache

11.apply update again(what the meaning of update)

12.reboot and everything should be OK

Specially,if you already get bootmenu v1.x.x working in your phone,you can skip step1~7.

I download cm71-111112.0846-Milestone2-Final-v2.0 and Changelog for cm7-20111027-NIGHTLY-Milestone2-ICS-Stable-v2

---------- Post added at 09:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:42 AM ----------

don't worry:

first you must download full sbf file which for your country

and then you must have RSD Lite, then press the power button, and key arrow up(on your psical keyboard)

open RDS Lite and connect your USB cable, and then browse the sbf file

and then click start......please wait a few second them all done:D
[Milestone 2 General] milad1:
thanks for reply...

I've done all these things, but as I said, I rebooted after installing the package cm7 20111027, and stuck to a black screen,And I'm forced to go back through rsd to 2.3.4.

All the things I did:

1-download cm7 20111027 and I copy to sdcard

2-I root phone through SuperOneClickv2.2

3-download and install bootmenu v0.8.6 and i copy to sdcard

4-install bootstrap and recovery reboot

5-bootmenu v0.8.6 installed in boot mode

6-wiil reboot

7-install cm7 20111027 package

8-wipe data / factory reset

9-wipe dalvik cache and wipe baterry stats

10-reboot system now

end

After Step 10 is stuck.

I am sorry for the English..
[Milestone 2 General] Anonymous_:
It's simple - after flashing official 2.3.4 you can't use custom roms anymore (or more precisely, you can't use old kernel)

So thats why you get into this and solution is - unfortunately there isn't any other solution, than using only official 2.3.4 ...

If you wanted CM7, you did not have to flash official 2.3.4
[Milestone 2 General] milad1:
thanks for reply

Therefore, there is no way that I can upgrade 2.3.4 to 2.37?
[Milestone 2 General] Anonymous_:
Not for now. For now you can only use official 2.3.4 and you can't use any custom rom nor Froyo official rom.
[Milestone 2 General] edpocesar:
This rom is very good.
[Milestone 2 General] milad1:
ooo0h damn!!

anyway thanks of your help...
[Milestone 2 General] oh0:
thats not to 100% true. You can use the MS2ginger Rom and Argen2stone. This roms are use the 2.3 Kernel. I have install it on my ms2 with german GB Stockrom. you must flash first the ms2ginger 2.0 (not lite) and then make on the stock bootmenü an fullwipe. restart your ms2.

can somebody make an cm7 on the kernel from ms2ginger?
[Milestone 2 General] Anonymous_:
But MS2Ginger and Argen2Stone both are not real custom roms. They are based on official rom - so it is just official rom with some custom adjustments, but with official libs, framework etc... MIUI and CM are real and completely custom roms with totally different system - not only adjusted official SBF...

But of course, better than nothing.
[Milestone 2 General] edpocesar:
It's true, better than nothing. :D

[Milestone 2 General] dynexell:
hello guys....

i got a milestone 2 with official UK GB ROM. Last 2 days i flash my phone using the cm72-111215.1631-GB-v1.3 custom ROM. U can download it in here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1239778 . There is a trick where how to install this ROM.

1 ) Download the Custom Rom from the link above and also download the fixed-sbf.zip from the link given.

2) Unzip the fixed-sbf.zip until u get the .sbf file.

3) Boot in the recovery and install the cm72-111215.1631-GB-v1.3 ROM. Then reboot..u will get stuck in the screen where there is a Motorola logo and a rabbit then your screen will go blank.

4) Open your PC and open your RSD Lite ( preferably version 5.3.1 )

5) Flash your phone with the fixed-sbf.

6) Reboot and it should turn out fine. I manage to install the custom ROM using this method. And so far the performance is good..with my normal usage, my battery manage to get around 13 hours and 45 minutes. However the battery performance is a subjective matter..

Hope this helps..

hi all,

like my previous post..i have a milestone 2 with official UK GB 2.3.4 stock ROM which i have flashed using the cm72-111215.1631-GB-v1.3 ROM which i'm using right now. So far i love this ROM.

My question is can i use other nightly ROM like cm7-20111027-NIGHTLY-Milestone2-ICS-Stable-v2 or cm7-20111024-NIGHTLY-Milestone2-ICS_-Stable-v3 on my phone? If i can do i need to wipe everything in the recovery and install the zip files? And do i must flashed the fixed-sbf.sbf after flashed on of the 2 ROMs?

one last question, between the 3 ROMs, which one is the latest and most stable for Milestone 2 with stock UK GB 2.3.4 ROM ? I read thru out the main thread until 124 pages but it seems that i could not find the answer.

Can anyone help me cause i'm a noob. And flashing to cm72-111215.1631-GB-v1.3 ROM is my first time. :D

Thanks for your help..
[Milestone 2 General] Anonymous_:
1) no you can't since they are for froyo kernel...

2) why would you want to do this? Both builds, you've written are older, than "cm72-111215.1631-GB-v1.3 ROM" ... you can figure it out by "20111024" -- thats the date of the build...

3) "between the 3 ROMs" -- which 3 ROMs exactly?

[Milestone 2 General] Benmc06:
Can someone explain to me why i have to install the following (droid2bootstrap and bootmenu):

2.download and install droid2bootstrap(attachment)

3.open droid2bootstrap and select install recovery

4.Install bootmenu v0.8.6. For more detail,come here

I was under the impression that droid2bootstrap is a recovery?

Hence why do i need to install bootmenu as well which is another recovery?

Can someone clarify?

Thanks for your help!
[Milestone 2 General] Anonymous_:
Because Bootmenu contain newer version of CWM...

And you are unable to flash some (newer?) zip files from old CWM, so thats why. It is always better to have newer CWM, than some old one...
[Milestone 2 General] Benmc06:
So i am correct in saying Droid2Bootstrap is a recovery which you install, to allow you to install another recovery (Bootmenu) over the top?

Thanks
[Milestone 2 General] Anonymous_:
Yes, but is will not install "on top" but it will overwrite the older recovery from droid2bootstrap.

Also Bootmenu is not only recovery, it is also what it say: the boot menu, where you can easily boot into stock/custom recovery, 2nd init etc...

Wifi fail

After bumbling around a bit I have finally replaced my milestone2's stock froyo system.

I managed to install CM72 111123.1710-NIGHTLY-Milestone2-ICS-v3.0 by Endless7.

I am very impressed. System is so much snappier. So many more knobs to play with.

I now have a small problem with wifi. It connects, says obtaining ip, and then disconnects. I can see, using connectbot and ifconfig that it acquires a valid ip from my AP before downing the interface. Have I missed something? Is there a bug? Can I band-aid this long enough to re-download my apps without burning my 3g bandwidth limit?

CM7.2 x CM9 x MUIT x MS2Ginger

Hi,

I have been using CM9 (CH kernel) on my Milestone2 and all is fine, but has some bugs.

I want to know the experience of some other user using CM7.2 or MUIU or MS2Ginger and how is the best one to setup for my wife phone. :D

Thanks!
[Milestone 2 General] Anonymous_:
I would recommend CM7. It should be bugless and fast.

MIUI is nice, but it has quite bad touch responsiveness (due to used kernel) and it is not that fast. But it is very nice overall (it reminds iOS UI).

MS2Ginger 3.0 is very nice too, everything works as expected (because it is built on top of stock rom), but it is not that fast as CM and sometimes I've experineced some crash (so it is not THAT stable).

I will be best to try out all yourself - but if I'll have to recommend one of those, I will choose CM7, since there is nothing to spoil - it provides both: good speed and stability.

[Milestone 2 General] pepe55:
You should boot into bootloader, flash your stock sbf throught rdslite, root, install bootstrap and try it again. First boot may take a little longer to boot. I tried CM7 and went back to MIUI 2.4.20 GB 2.3.7

CM7 have some bugs, check the issue list in its thread.

MIUI is almost bugless and perfect for daily use.

Flash your stock again, root, search forum, I think its in developer section. There is manual how to downgrade your kernel, but you only need to install the chinesse one.

so, how i reboot to custom recovery after install ROM?

7.apply All in one update.zip(ROM package)

8.reboot to bootmenu again!​

if I reboot my M2 after step 7 my cell briks, it show Motorola logo in RED for less then a second and black screen.

If I didnt reboot and do other steps (8, 10, 11, 12) my cell briks too.

And I have to install GB with RSD
[Milestone 2 General] Anonymous_:
It's easy. When you have black screen after flashing update.zip, you've flashed Froyo (not GB) firmware. You have to use only GB firmware, if you have flashed GB SBF.

Here is a simple guide to share you PC or Laptop internet connection with your phone through wifi.

Download and install connectify on your PC or Laptop. Do a google search, you'll find Connectify-Lite for free.

Fill in the settings panel with your prefered WiFi name, password and internet connection to share.

Click start button to start sharing

On your Wireless Connection Status, click Details to get the network connection information, note the IPV4 Address

Now on your Android Device

Go to Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Wi-Fi Settings

Open Advance settings menu

Tick the Use static IP option

Enter your desired IP address (ex: 123.456.7.8) into Ip Address field

Enter your IPV4 Address (ex. 192.168.178.1) into Gateway field

Enter 255.255.255.0 into Netmask field

Enter your internet connection’s DNS server (use ipconfig /all command to get DNS info) into DNS 1 and DNS 2. As an alternative, you can use Google Public DNS: 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

Connect to Wi-Fi using your password

Disable and Enable Wi-Fi (in case if it won’t connect)

It will start working on your android device.

The reason that you need to do all this is you don't have DHCP server enabled on your windows machine for connectify.

An alternative way is to use "Internet Pass through" USB connection mode. In this case windows will automatically enable a DHCP server.

I have attached the screenshots with the post.

Please ask if you have any further query.

Hit the thanks button if you find my post useful.
