There is a fm tuner in the milestone 2 (the ti1271 handles wifi, bluetooth, and fm radio) BUT it's not wired to the headset which should be used as an antenna.

So, in the end, it's not possible to make it work work. Hardware is detected, but no signal can be received.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Anonymous_:
That sux :( So D2 has it wired? Why is there this difference between M2 and D2...

EDIT: I tried install FM radio from link provided, but it just don't work. When I plug in my headphones, start the app, it just stuck on "FM Radio is being launched, please wait...". In logcat I don't see any error message or any hint.

I also tried to repair permissions, according to this topic http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=769894&page=2 but it didn't do nothing.

I thought Driod 2 is just US version of Milestone 2 - I thought it has very similiar (or maybe I should say - same) hardware... I just don't get why D2 has fm tuner (wired) and M2 don't has it... So unfair :/ It would be nice to see working fm tuner on M2. Internet radio is practically unusable, because of FUP.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] momus87:
Motorola didn't wire it for market segmentation reasons.

There is absolutely nothing you can do about it (but open your phone and wire it yourself, which would be completely crazy!).

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

Is there really nothing to be done about battery jumping?

Mine just changed from 33% to 5%!

I've been using this rom for 4 days now, and battery problems apart, I have to admit that everything works just fine, I really like this rom!

A new Feedback!

Hi guys, i just update to the last version and the notification button is working normally now... i don´t see any improvement on music quality yet... But the fingerspring is hiddering some apps in the last version too... =(

I suggest to port the wifi N to CM7 for signal quality improvement.. that will be so cool =D

Another point, why we need the 1% battery parameter forced on build.prop, if we can active that on CM7 settings?

Thks for reply!! :)
[Milestone 2 Android Development] WongJames:
I have got battery drain in the latest build 1112

My phone stand by for 8 hours and battery drained 15%:(

It was only 4-5% in previous builds..

For those interested, here's a direct link to the ROMs.

Thanks tezet for your great work. I'm sticking with Endless7's Defy port at the moment though, battery life seems to be better.

Anyone else having issues with no cell signal with CM7 (either Endless7's or tezet's) ?

Back home at the folks in the country and I could get cell reception in most parts of the house with the factory ROM, but nothing at all with these CM7 ROM's...:(
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Anonymous_:
Did you tried baseband switcher? :)

It should be included in the Endless7's rom or you can download it from my attachment here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=19283507&postcount=12
[Milestone 2 Android Development] cobo_:
Cool thanks, just tried the baseband switcher from tezet's first post...

Was set to some China baseband for whatever reason...changed to the 'EU 2.2.2 A953 best' one, or whatever it was called, and BAM now have reception out here in the sticks :)
[Milestone 2 Android Development] r2beta0:
Maybe, if you can translate what the error codes are:

E/MediaPlayer( 5691): error (1, -2147483648)

Have you installed the right baseband?

NOTE TO EVERYONE! BEFORE REPORTING PROBLEMS WITH BATTERY OR SIGNAL CHECK IF YOU ARE ON THE RIGHT BASEBAND.

Does a wrong baseband affects the battery?

[Milestone 2 Android Development] tezet:
For all guys reporting battery problems.

Remember to wipe battery stats and dalvik cache after any upgrade

Wait few full charge cycles before you comment on the battery performance, it needs calibration

Ensure you have valid BP selected, as this could have side effect in battery drain

Don't report voltage steps, it's probably a HW issue or at least problem in moto's proprietary modules and can't be fixed

If non of above applies to your case, than it looks like Android could consume too much power, I think it usually doesn't consume that much... Maybe you need to wipe data? Or at least find what's really causing it.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] djlooka:
First of all, thank you very much for your effort.

I have some questions about your project:

Which are the requirements for a rom to be merged into the official CM? Isn't the locked bootloader one of them?

Why did you choose to implement the rom on the UK FroYo kernel instead of the Chinese GingerBread one? Since there will soon be a European GingerBread kernel, will it be possible to switch it more easily?

I read somewhere on a MIUI related thread that there's a fix for Class10 MicroSDHC cards. Are you planning to include it? It would be a very nice feature for future upgrades...

Thank you again,

Luca
[Milestone 2 Android Development] PetrusDLX:
Battery is better in the endless cm7 because the cpu still in 300mhz when the screen is off

Just install droid overclock, setcpu or something like that..

Sorry about the english

[Milestone 2 Android Development] Legza:
Just moved to this rom from Endless' CM7. The touch is AWESOME!!! Thanks, tezet!

But agree, that the 3D grafics is a bit less impressive. I mean not less points in quadrant, but rather buggy picture. I have some picture distortion in games and quadrant and think, that it is connected with quadrant poor score. However, I had the same effects while using stock firmware, but there were no bugs on Endless CM7.

Yes, and is it possible to make the brightness level changing more smooth? Stock FW and Endless' CM7 have transition effect in backlight.

However, the rom is perfect. Thanks again.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] crazyteknohed:
Sorry for repeating myself but does this ROM suffer from the old stock Froyo bug which makes gaming impossible?

[youtube]qP5R4xj3XAc[/youtube]
[Milestone 2 Android Development] tezet:
1. No. Defy, Droid2 and DroidX are good examples

2. I prefer to have the same source of BP and kernel and wanted an european BP. There were problems with GB kernel and 2nd-init, which I haven't had time to resolve.

3. It's already included (mmc_fix module)
[Milestone 2 Android Development] tezet:
How about Chinese official GB? Is it any better or the same as other stock ROMs? If it's better, I will look at this.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] tezet:
Yes it does. Is it fixed in CH GB release? It's the kernel thing and I don't have plans to switch to other kernel before UK GB is released. If it's fixed in CH GB, than we can expect it fixed in UK's release as well.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Lutis:
yes,it's better than any non-ch rom for its full multimedia support.( full 720p hw dec for SAR720p and hw dec for rmvb/wmv/avi,which are not works on any non-ch rom). I have compare a lot between ch froyo/GB and non-ch rom including defy froyo/GB. I can prove this.

also,the touch sensitivity is perfect.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] tezet:
1. About music quality, could you provide any measurements? Frequency response would be OK (comparison between stock ROM).

2. Will update fingerprint.

3. You're welcomed to do that :-) It's open source.

4. I don't know, build.prop probably does have lots unnecessary stuff.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] will5:
Chinese GB kernel has the best touch of all roms by a long way :)

Anyway, other regions GB official update should hit.. tomorrow? :rolleyes:
[Milestone 2 Android Development] nesraz:
Tezet.

Would the next update adds FM radio.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] tezet:
I'm not sure if I understood you correctly, but:

1) AFAIK CPU state does nothing to do with screen state unless you choose that option in CM settings

2) CPU switches to 300Mhz and actually most of it's time spends in this state and deep sleep.

Why would you need to do that? CPU settings are already in bootmenu and CM settings.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] tezet:
Sure, I just need to finish fingerprint reader and front facing camera first.

Please read previous posts and stop asking this question.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Anonymous_:
You say chinese GB kernel has best touch sensitivity? Then why Endless7's CM7 based on chinese kernel has worse touch sensitivity, than this one - based on UK kernel?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] will5:
endless cm7 is based on froyo chinese kernel.

ms2ginger uses GB chinese kernel, try it and you´ll see how better touch is.

Same for leaked chinese GB stock rom.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Anonymous_:
Thanks for response,

so practically it's (in scale from best to worse)

GB Chinese > EU Froyo > Chinese Froyo?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] will5:
Yep, that´s how it is :)

Let´s see EU GB :D

One off the biggest drains on your battery is the signal. If you are using the wrong baseband (signal) your battery wil drain faster.

Has anyone had any success using titanium backup to restore their apps with this? It just force closes for me everytime. It might restore a few apps, then close. Or if I try one at a time, it still force closes, and only a couple will restore, every-so often.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] r2beta0:
I did. It worked fine, no problems at all.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] crazyteknohed:
Worse sensitivity but no multi-touch bugs in CH kernel. You pay your money and take your choice...

---------- Post added at 12:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:37 PM ----------

Thank you for the reply, Tezet. In that case I think I will stick with Endless's CM7, at least until a proper UK GB kernel is released.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] DreadPirateDan:
hmm.. definitely not working for me :(

I made the backups on MIUI, can't restore them on this rom, restores fine when I go back to MIUI, and have just gone over to ms2ginger and they restore perfectly there to.. confusing..

Oh well, I'll just hang out for the next update and try it out then.

Cheers!

Did you try restoring only App? No data. If not, give it a shot. :-)

Currently there's tab instead of €.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] r2beta0:
I don't know if it's related but my backups were made on stock froyo ROM. I also used the most recent titanium backup available.

Anyone else not able to get tethering working on this CM7 (via wireless)?

I can connect to the network that the phone creates, but no dataflow...can only ping the local IP of the phone.

Have also tried using a third-party app (https://market.android.com/details?id=android.tether) and get the exact same results as above...therefore I suspect something not quite right with CM7 somewhere?...
[Milestone 2 Android Development] EVEALEX62:
Maybe you can test the fix on MS2Ginger here

Thanks for this.

I manually replicated what the patch does, and no luck unfortunately. :(

Good Work !

Hello tezet,

First, I want to say you have a good avatar......lol.....no you do a very good work ! :p

I just want to know if you plan a new release with the correction of the four problems :

- 720P recording

- ALT lock

- Tethering

- SDCard on CWM (Start/kill ADB)

After that it's the best ROM !!

Thanks à lot for that !

Edit : Sorry for my english.......... :(
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Jorixine:
So downloading the latest version (in the changelog dialog) would be enough? installing that zip that sizes 98mb?

I am come from Endless7 latest version.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] EVEALEX62:
yes because the google app are not present :) .... download "gapp.." attachment if you want !
[Milestone 2 Android Development] cobo_:
Yeah that will work fine; I too came from Endless7's ROM and just followed the instructions in tezet's first post about upgrading from another CM7...worked fine :)

Edit: You may need to change your baseband to a more suitable one as my baseband was set to a Chinese one and it didn't work outside of the major cities.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] jorgebaruchi:
i have this problem too..

no tethering =(
[Milestone 2 Android Development] DreadPirateDan:
Whoa, that is crazy! Full charge at 530am and I normally have to charge by 11am.

I am a very heavy user though - games, music, camera, web and downloads like a boss lol. A record for me is probably making it till 12pm. I generally have a lot of drain too, eg 15 percent in 5 hours, completely on standy the whole time

Plus I possibly damaged my battery from bricking and having to direct charge it :D
[Milestone 2 Android Development] tezet:
SDCard on CWM should be now fixed (I think), thx to Endless7.

ALT lock is not a bug, it's a missing feature :-) It is a moto specific feature and someone has to write support for it. Now I'm too busy to do that.

As for 720P recording, I still don't have any success with it. I guess I leave it for now and focus my efforts in getting ICS to work.

Tethering doesn't work indeed, I will fix it in the new release. Thx for reporting.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] nibbel:
Hy tezet, thx for your work.

One question.

I have 2 scripts in /system/etc/init.d/ as "99xxxx".

In endless version the scripts execute every startup but not in your version.

Is the /etc/init.d function limited to your scripts?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] EVEALEX62:
Ok thanks for your answer :)
[Milestone 2 Android Development] r2beta0:
Well, if you keep CPU running on top speed and your screen is always on you can't expect your battery to last long. I mean, for how long your notebook battery lasts if you keep using it? Now compare sizes of both batteries. We must remember that an android device is not a cell phone. It is a very powerful pocket computer that for some obscure reason is able to make calls :P

Blur is a nuisance as far as contacts and phone calls go.

thanks again tezet
[Milestone 2 Android Development] cobo_:
Hi Tezet,

Many thanks for looking into the tethering issue so quickly!

I will test the new version tonight and report back.

Can I ask, from an interest and educational point of view, what changes did you have to make to fix the tethering? (I'm trying to learn more in-depth the workings of Android, ROMs, etc)
[Milestone 2 Android Development] DreadPirateDan:
Yeah I'm not freakin stupid. I'm comparing it to other phones I've used, girlfriends phone, friends phones and also more directly a guy at work and i challenge his htc desire hd v my ms2. For about the same use, mines flat and shut down and he is still around 40%. He's just on stock everything. I'm underclocked and undervolted 800 mhz and 39vsel max, so that has helped slightly more recently. I get that's just how it is with phones nowdays, but the ms2 certainly wouldn't win any awards for battery economy.

[Milestone 2 Android Development] roguefan99:
Not sure if its an issue with my setup (using go launcher) but I'm getting my phone totally hang when removing it from the multimedia (desk) dock, no response at all. Need to pull the battery to get it to work.

I find it a bit laggy too but that might be go launchers issue (been using Endless7 roms no lag), but I'm sure as time goes on it will be worked out. Boots extremely quick though, very impressive.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] foreman31:
do a logcat

http://forum.samdroid.net/f38/tutorial-how-get-logcat-example-check-battery-drain-2543/

find out if it is go launcher or run dalvik debug monitor.

[Milestone 2 Android Development] tezet:
Could anyone explain what is the issue with wifi? I can't fix it without knowing what's really happening. ADB log could be helpful.

And please don't say it's fixed in Endless7 patch, it's not a fix, it's just a workaround.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Anonymous_:
Just current moved from older Endless7's CM7 build to current tezet's version (just done update from zip & wipe cache & dalvik - without data wipe) and I don't have any problems with wifi (currently my router is set for 802.11b only).

I have only one problem so far - when I lower brightness settings in Milestone2Toolbox, it ignore my setting after I perform lock&unlock (after unlock it's back on higher value). I want to lower brightness because of battery saving.

Can anyone help me get root to install on my device? I ODIN'd Chris41g's "[ACS][KERNEL][ODIN] Stock Pulled Repacked with CWM5 ****Updated 10/28****" with no problem and got CWM installed, did a nandroid backup and all is well. No matter which version of the SU zip I try to flash next though, it fails. I get an error message reporting a failure and Status 0. I have tried the folowing versions of SU:

update-su-3.0.zip

Superuser-3.0.6-efgh-signed.zip

su-3.0.5-efgh-signed.zip

su-2.3.6.1-ef-signed.zip

All have failed with the same error message. I am clearly missing a step out somewhere, anyone spot what it is?!

Thanks for any tips.

Nope, but I just looked for that option and cant' find it. The SU app says I am on 3.0.6 which I think is the latest, right?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] move_over:
no, doesn't matter since you'll be flashing chris's right over it. i had several of zedomax's kernels before going to Chris's.

Great, thanks for the tip! I used the LoStkernel and then flashed Chris' over the top and I have root and CWM! Next up is the NoCIQ mod and I am 90% there.

I can't get the Wireless Tether app to work properly, but at least it starts and doesn't complain I have no root, so I just need to work that out.

Thanks for your help.

**EDIT** Used the latest beta of Wifi Tether for Root users (3.1beta6) and it works fine, can't encrypt the connection, but I can tether, using 3 or 4G.
