i dont think so because swap is not available on our kernel and it is too hard to make a swap kernel module. i think one of the reasons why ics runs on our milestone is that kabaldan removed features that could not be used by our hardware anyway like android beam, etc. and i think he lowered the minfree levels, resized the resolution of images and lots of othe optimizations like that. im not sure but this is just my guess.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Eiertschik:
The default Holo launcher has also been replaced by Trebuchet to save more RAM.

And I guess he implemented his Gmaps hack to make location reporting services killable by OOM.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] papadawgg:
as far as i know, holo launcher has not been replaced by nadlabak but by the cyanogenmod-team. on the one hand because of legal issues and on the other because trebuchet is more customizable. in cm7 there is also adw the default launcher and not launcher2.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] parads:
Hi. Thanks kabaldan for your work.

I've installed the latest nightly (25) and the phone is really slow. I think it's a memory problem because when I have the luck to see my apps running (I mean, not always because the settings menu freezes sometimes) the free memory is 0B.

Before install CM9 I've reset to factory, cleared caches and formatted my ext2 partition. So, is a really fresh install, but runs slow since first second.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] pnsdhrn:
I am with the 20 Nightly and the Apps Manage in the Settings is not at all steady ever.With some unforeseen luck when I get it opened ,immediately it crashes and go back to Settings.I haven't any luck since the 20 flash to open an app in it or to switch between Downloaded SDCard,Running & All.I have to depend on Titanium Backup to manage apps.

pnsdhrn
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] arttree:
Don't worry about the 0B free memory, ICS manage ram better than GB, it will auto free up ram if you start an app. Of cause to a limit when an app(usually a game) need more than total memory MS have, the apps will Force close.

Only question i have is why the Setting process always using 30~60MB as shown in Running tab on Manage Apps? On GB, Setting process only use 12~30MB...

Your issue partially also due to Hardware Acceleration which MS seem can't handle well. You can try to put Setting process into the HWA blacklist by modify 'build.prop' file in /system/ folder. Find the line 'hwui.blacklist=none', change to 'hwui.blacklist=com.android.settings'.

But be careful on what you edit, do it at you own risk. i won't take any responsible if anything happen to your phone. Hope that help. Good luck!

They will not unlock old phones like Milestone, etc. Only newer phones will be unlockable.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] afadel:
The article didn't make it clear whether only from now on they will release unlocked bootloaders or if they'll do it for old phones too.

This information you're sharing you got from a different source or is your interpretation of the same article?

Thanks dear arttree once more.Accordingly I changed the line in build.prop to "hwui.blacklist=com.android.settings" and got the settings stable.But I noticed another problem now.My Browser is not stable now.It frequently crashes.What is the remedy for getting both 'Settings/Apps' and 'Browser' stable/

Waiting with thanks,

pnsdhrn
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] arttree:
add "_com.android.browser" to the end of "hwui.blacklist=com.android.settings", like this hwui.blacklist= com.android.settings_com.android.browser. That's it, your ICS browser will be good to go. Enjoy this great piece of work from the CyanogenMod team & kabaldan!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] jorry92:
How can we use the hw.whitelist? e.g. have NO hw acc unless we specify? and does this also mean the setting for 3rd party apps in settings (force gpu for 2d) will be overwritten?

Sorry for all the questions but i actually dont want the google stuff to use hwa, because thats running in the background mostly. But hwa obv uses more ram. but in some 3rd party apps it has its use.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mrvek:
Hardware acceleration is enabled for every app that want's to use it (developer of the application can specify if s/he want's it) except those that are specified in blacklist. It is like that since kabaldan made ICS gpu drivers a reality for us (and wider) :)

To disable it for everything use "none" or "disabled" in whitelist (quotes are not needed). In that case blacklist is not used (as written in the file). To enable it for some procesess only put there the process name.

Yes, it uses more RAM.

How these properties relate to the option in settings I do not know. Basically, "Force GPU rendering" in developer options forces hwa on applications that do not want to use it normally, but can that interfere/conflict with properties you manually specify in build.prop I can't say.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] jorry92:
Thanks for explaining that to me, dear mrvek.

Think i'll just toy around with the settings and see what works best. I just went back to cm7 to compare it to cm9.

My conclusions are for now that with hwa enabled the speed inside applications, well not faster, more like smoother really.

As would be expected. Other than that apps take longer to load and more has to be killed in the background because of increased ram load.

Therefore the cpu also uses more cycles(starting, killing and restarting applications) increasing battery drain.

For now i'll stick with cm9 with adjusted hwa setting.

Why don't you use PM?

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] MaxLe:
So, wait.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] afadel:
So, what's the point of the post? We all know he's working on JB and will release when he thinks it's usable. You could share the preview ROM with people that want to try it if you wanted to. Coming here to post the screenshot of the build you have and don't want to share with others just to massage your ego is not helpful in any way.

Again, you are free not to release a preview ROM you compiled on your own, I just don't understand the point of rubbing on other people's noses.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] dexter_10:
So, any performance difference compared to ICS?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] MaxLe:
I'd want to share this great news, but nad don't want to make it public atm, so I respect his work... I won't post. If you want, you can compile it yourself, but you may want to edit a bit to make it bootable.

And as I said, I'm not the one who make it bootable. All thanks goes to CopyLiu @IRC.

Well, as far as I see, it's more responding than ICS. Especially the launcher. Still no theme yet, and no-adhoc mode (can be done by edit, ofc).

//Also, I have to use CM9's gapps. And I don't want to make a offense on anyone in here using milestone that still stick to CM9, sorry. I won't post another one, for you guys, okay!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] afadel:
Oh, ok. I guess I misinterpreted your intentions. I didn't want to sound as rude as I did anyway, sorry! It's good to have news on first impressions of JB in Milestone. The bad side is that good news makes us more anxious to get a hold of it! hehehe

Greetings from my new phone.

I hope kabaldan gets Jellybean working fine on this Chuck Norris device! And I also hope my ex MM will still work in my sisters hands until that happens xD so I can try it.

What I hate about this Xperia - bootloop > reflash everything again. Had to flash back to stock cca. 20 times in 2 weeks. Thought it would be easier if I unlocked my BL, but I have to pay for software without 100% knowing that it'll unlock.

I just realised how MM powerful and simple device is... but RAM... oh RAM :/.

@zeppelinrox I installed your supercharger on this phone too :D but only 50%, I don't want another bootloop for now :).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Lots of Xperial Arc S are fully supercharged.

I'm sure there's a thread for that... hell I think there must be 500 supercharger threads but only the first 250 show up on a search lol.

Because I tried it and it works, but I'm not sure if I should use that version, but I couldn't find other gapps for CM10.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Quentin himself:
Just by curiosity, where have you found your CM10 ? I know that Kabaldan will decide to post the ROM when it's working good, but I heard that changes aren't big so... why not testing :)

BTW, I guess you will not receive any suggestions or help ATM because a lot of us don't even know how to download it (or build it in order to make it boot). So share your ROM and maybe, we could help you later, or at least your impressions about it :)

You can download CM 10 here.

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Quentin himself:
Come back to CM9 because of virtual keyboard missing. Installing an other doesn't resolve this issue.

I find it cool but a bit laggy !

I will give it a second try in some days :)

(BTW, any working virtual keyboard with "your" gapps ?)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
I didn't wipe anything.

Just flashed CM10 coming from CM9.

Updating apps works for me.

Touchpal keyboard works and so does the keyboard included with Terminal IDE (both were insalled to sd-ext so were still available)

Mulitlang keyboard doesn't work though.

I never used built in file manager so I also have root explorer, es file explorer and super manager available.

Themes setting did FC on me as well.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] shalom06:

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Babis_ECE:
Can you give any info on the latest CM9 build? How is it performance wise? I haven't used CM9 in my Milestone for a couple of months now, I reverted back to CM7 for more smoothness, etc..

I want to upgrade to CM9 but don't have really much time for tests, etc..

Also, what about GApps? Should we move them to an SD Partition with Link2SD?

Thank you.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Darkstriker:
Any chance of an update to RC1? Just got a Milestone and really enjoy this Rom. I've been trying to setup ubuntu to compile the rom in it's current state from your github but I don't see any merges from the CM mainline in the commits since around april.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Quentin himself:
Check the skrilax_CZ bot : http://skrilax.droid-developers.org/cm9nightly/umts_sholes/ (or via my signature)

There is no more nightlies for CM9. I think Kabaldan is now working hard on CM10 (you can test it via the first link).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Darkstriker:
Thanks for the quick reply. I didn't find those nightlies before. Gonna check them out now.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] jorry92:
Personally, the only reason you would want to stick with cm7 is ram; especially with hwa enabled ICS and JB(not tested but educated guess) will use more ram for the same (background)processes.

However; if you set the build.prop option hwui.whitelist from "0" to "none" you will have only slightly more ram use for each process.

Actually im using this(latest cm9) as my daily driver and i dont see any significant battery differences compared to cm7.

About the apps: i personally dont use a lot of them, so i dont move anything to my sdcard besides the default option built in ICS. Dont have a lot of space left but i remove a lot of system apps so that helps.

The only "problems" with ICS nowadays is that when your device runs out of ram it will sometimes kill the app you are working with (happend sometimes with browser) and that some hw video decoders aren't working properly.

If you use your milestone for heavy ram intensive(multitasking e.g. music with browser) tasks, i would stick with cm7, otherwise just use cm9.

And dont forget to make a nandroid.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] scoutme:
I use cm9, but it's not a rom for daily use. Often you have seconds just to see calls appearing on screen, and apps lag while memory management tries to keep up with ram needs. If you want to help testing and try this wonderful rom, go on. But if you want the right rom for this device, go Cm7.

We'll see if next release will be better (cm9 is deprecated in favour of jellybean cm10)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Babis_ECE:
Thank you for your answers. I will mostly use my Milestone for sports activities, mainly Sports tracking, so only 1-2 apps will be running. Music and SportsTracker/Nike+. Hopefully they won't be killed by ram manager. :p

Does anyone have the GOT 2.2.1 .sbf so I can flash it and then install CM9? Because after a problem with bootloop and the SD Card not recognised I was forced to flash the original 2.2.1 .sbf which doesn't have the vulnerable recovery injected.. And now I can't get into Open Recovery to flash CM9..

And the problem is that all the links I saw in the forum are dead.

2. When I first time instaled this rom i found this option "long press BACK buton, kills task". I had to wipe/instal again (couse system crash after I instaled ext partision) and now i cont find this option.

3. After i turn off "mobile data" its turns on automatically after about 30min of not using phone (i did not have that after the first instalation).

Those are only informations about what i found, rom is very very good and i will use it till the next compilation comes out, so thanks for people who still cares about our milestons:)

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mburrieza:
CM9 is working much better than expected. Great work Nadlabak ! Battery life is almost like CM7.

Some issues I found with cm9 apart from the ones listed before:

1) Wifi: I can´t set MSCHAPv2 in the WIFI secondary authentication. If I set the option I have an authentication error and when I tried to edit the connection the option is in None state instead of MSCHAP. The same happened with every option of that variable, always return to None. Seems that the value is not saved.

2) "Max Number of active process in background" setting is not saved after a reset, it shows normal state instead.

3) Some leak in memory seems to occur. After 1 day of use the memory available is almost 0, but the phone is still responsive (but slow). Seems that ICS has improved a lot with the memory management, because its not freezing.
