You have to install Link2sd and then make it as system app by moving apk to /system/app then reboot.

Then wipe all user data and you will be as first boot. Make sure script were deleted as explain in post in general section.

Then you can use Link2sd.

What I made :

1)Install Link2sd from market and transform it as system app (very important because you will lost all app that isn't system app) !!Don't launch Link2sd!!

2)Remove 05mountsd 07app2ext 11link2sd from /etc/init.d/

3)Reboot phone

4)launch Link2sd

5)Clear sd-ext part

6)Wipe all data with openrecovery (only if you lose your app)

7)You have now Link2sd working but have to install all your app as when you installed ROM first time.

You can use link2sd to un-froze app you lost.

My screen doesn't turn off when I answer the phone

My screen doesn't turn off when I answer the phone. So it easy to click 'end call' by my cheek.

Does anybody have the same problem as I did.

I am using Milestone XT720, Not MotoRoi (Korean)

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

Update

I tested it again and more carefully, the sensor works, but it only works when I take the phone stick to my face. It doesn't work when I use my finger to cover "the 3 dots". It make me wonder again that where the real sensor is..... hahaha. Anybody can tell me why is it.........

by the way, the ROM work well and really smooth to me. Thank you.................

ext2 not mounting

i created ext2 with minitool. going in OR 'e:/ cannot mount dev/block/mmcblk0p2(invalid argument) shows up. every OR selection this shows up.

tried link2sd, created link2sd folder in sd-ext but after reboot folder gone, run link2sd choosed ext2, 'mount scrip error..data/sdext2 failed no such device', i checked there is a sdext2 folder.

i want to moved apps (ALL data) and install apps (ALL data) goes to sdcard. i am running out of internal space.

:confused:

The weirdest thing happened to me trying to flash this ROM. I couldn't get the market and when I did it wouldn't work. And the phone would reboot when trying to install an app. I wiped all and even flashed stock a few times but no matter what I do this ROM doesn't install right. Really weird.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] cwkhong:
i checked in titanium backup, market is froozed, weired! i unfreeze it and it's working fine
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
I tried and tried and tried and tried to get this installed with market and no bugs but it didn't install successfully until I flashed Brianlee's 2.2 Bravo ROM then wiped all and flashed CronosX. Finally it is fine. I flashed back to stock and then CronosX and it wouldn't install right. Weird, so if anyone runs into this issue I suggest this. Might not make any sense but it worked for me! lol
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
I am selling one of my XT's and I want to sell it with this ROM I guess, it seems the best for pictures, battery life, stability besides Bravo I think. I am customizing it the best I can that would more suit the new owner I think, but my only worry is if they have to do a factory reset lol. The keyboard and bootanimation and a few apps is all so not too big of a deal. I know it's too much to ask from someone and I sure the heck don't know how to bake these things in lol. I am gonna miss my blessed XT but it's just sitting on my shelf now. I want to use the money toward a GNex I think. I guess if nothing else maybe someone could share how they would set up their XT before selling? Wish this ROM could have been finished.

---------- Post added at 01:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:43 AM ----------

Lost homekey function again with this ROM. It's weird, if I reflash it should come back. I don't know what causes these weird issues but it's the kinds of things that suck for selling lol.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
AHHHH! I feel really stupid, I lost a sale the other night cause the market was missing! I just realized the google apps are hidden until you sign into your account! SOB!!! Lmao.

I have read about 2/3 of this thread, so if it has been answered already just point me in the right direction please.

I see that although my phone's default language is English, there are still some places where Chinese (I presume Cronos uses a Chinese rom as base) remains in the system. It pops up here and there.

Is there a way to get this all English?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] xtwister6:
I went through the same thing as you. I could not for the life of me to get it past 720. I reloaded from sbf and could not overclock.

720 was way too slow so I just went back to the march update and everything is running great again at 1000 with the motomizer overclock.

I almost bought the gnex because the RC2.1 was killing me .. lol
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
Yeah I used my XT720 for a few days and was noticing the screen brightness issue. It only works every other time, it is especially bad when outside in the sun. And I noticed all the Asian language in the ROM. Brianlili didn't include overclock. We have had so many ROM's that were almost perfect but then left incomplete. So close but yet so far. It would be a wonderful thing if we could have these 3 issues fixed.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] 3rdstring:
IIRC in peshovecs' CM7 you had to edit /system/etc/rootfs//init.mapphone_umts.rc to enable OC.

insmod /system/lib/modules/symsearch.ko
insmod /system/lib/modules/overclock.ko
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
Yeah thanks bud. I don't mind the overclock so much, I think the ROM runs great and the battery life is amazing. The main issue I think is the screen brightness doesn't work properly.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
Can someone link me to the March update?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fox_die:
I agree that this is the best rom I've ever tried in favor of speed. A couple of minor fix and it'll be perfect.

btw, anyone tries supercharger with this rom ? I'm planning to buy a good class 10 card for swapping and using supercharge with cronos X, for more speed, but in my experience before in other roms supercharge will hinder the phone speed that boost it in the long run.

ah, one bad thing happened to me, my Xt720's got damaged, it bleeded ink (some kind of dark liquid from under layer of lcd screen popped out to the surface, behind the glass) The phone still running, but it looks ugly and the ink gets in the way of viewing stuff so I decide to repair. It's not cheap to replace the screen, 40 usd (warranty expired one year before) but I have no other choice. Buying another phone? no I'm satisfied with xt720 and finally CronosX lol, but maybe WP8 phone or BB10 is a good choice in the future.

People said the cause maybe placing heavy objects on the phone (I never do that), dropping it (a couple of times, maybe that's why it happened) or using in heavy moisture (bathroom..)... and when the phone is too hot (wifi or bluetooth tethering can make it very hot). Anyway I'll just be more carefull with these fragile electronic things, you guys too ;)

i can use Spanish language on this rom? thanks
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
This has happened to me before, I was using a heavy acid cleaner, black streak remover on an RV and it was raining that day. I kinda believe since I used the phone a few times while using the cleaner, without actually coming in contact the heavy acid reacted with the screen and caused the ink like blotches. They slowly went away after a few days but you could barely see a trace of them being there.Whites weren't as white anymore in those areas. I ended up getting an insurance replacement from it, I guess they couldn't prove any liquid damage. Keep phones away from strong chemicals! lol
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] pilev:
My phone was working fine 2 days, and after that restarts. It is restarting 5 times per day. I don't know why.

It is the same and with FJ ROM.

And NO that is not SDCard problem. I don't have restarts with CM9.

I can not overclock it, Motomizer is not working. The max CPU is 720 and did not change to 800 or 1000. I lost permission of files and can not edin the overclock or any system files
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fox_die:
^ nearly same as you.

I tried to overclock by editing /system/etc/init.d/10overclock with root explorer, changed to 900 @ 64 but Setcpu only detects 720 mhz ! How to fix that ? (the original 800 mhz is not recognized by setcpu, either)

also anyone using Swapper for root? If so, what is your setting (swappiness and swap size)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] eejin2:
dropping the phone is the cause of the ink blotches, i think. it did that twice to my phone.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] bagongs:
Suggestion: never use Swapper for root or third-party apps for swap. The reason is, if you check your Memory features (for example with SetCPU --> Info --> Memory) if you apply Swapper for root you will still have 0 kB in the fields SwapTotal and SwapFree. This means that what these apps do is not a real swap.

Therefore, more practically, I tested them quite a lot: they increase your RAM at the very beginning (when you just switched on the phone) but after a one or two hours the RAM goes back to the initial value (so, no advantage) and, in addition, the phone drains more battery and gets less smooth (probably also owing to the location of the swap file, the SD card!). You don't want that to happen on this ROM, battery life is one of its strenghts. :)

But this is just my experience.

Still, when I used them I set 32 MB of swap file size and I left swappiness as default.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fox_die:
@bagongs: thank for your suggestion :P

if it shows 0 at SwapTotal and SwapFree, it means you need to fastboot to enable swap first http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1210343. Still, the extra performance is really unnoticeable and degrade over time, sometimes my phone gets frozen (black screen, no responding) and I need to pull out the batterry. So, I stop using Swapper for root, seem not compatible with this rom.

I'm using RAM Manager Pro now and I think it's really good, a worthy paid app :) It has Swap option too, but I haven't try yet.

besides, anyone could help me with overclocking ?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] vladi-it:
Ciao

Overclock:

I'm not using it, I've tried it and it wasn't stable and short the time of use; so I have removed; if I remember...

you have to load the appropriate modules in:

/system/etc/rootfs//init.mapphone_umts.rc

add the following:

insmod /system/lib/modules/symsearch.ko

insmod /system/lib/modules/overclock.ko

now you are ready to overclock, if I remember correctly you can change the freq on the fly with: milestone overclock apk

Swap:

If you want swap you have to fastboot; stock kernel don't support swap! fastboot kernel support it!

It is not necessary one apk, if you have a swap partition on your SD it will be loaded and the phone (SD : first partition FAT, second EXT4, third SWAP)

Now i deprecate overclock, but fastboot and swap are awesome and the phone can load all games you want!
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] kenny513:
are there any known things not working?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] pilev:
Overclock not working. I think all other is working fine.

My phone restarts with this ROM and is useless.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Zachary57:
YOu have to overclock by modding script 10overclock in init.d folder.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] pilev:
I Have tryed it.

Changed to 800 MHz, after first save i have lost the premission and can not change it anymore. System info says that the phone is working on 720, not on 800. Have tried Motomizer.. the same. Motomizer can not change the overclock ....

I'm with Mioze's ROM now. It is better for me. No restarts. It is a bit slower, but more stable for me and all is working.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] jjackichan:
Just put your phone into freezer one night and everything should fine. Your can put longer if there are some ink left :D

P/S: Use plastic bag to cover your phone until it completely un-freeze.

thx for this amazing ROM !

I can now use a stable ROM on my XT720 :)

maybe i will find back some utilities of with this phone now that it is almost up to date with a decent ROM :)

is this solution for real? I actually dropped mine and got the ink blotches. thats why i bought galaxy nexus.

Battery life seems great, just about woke up with what I went to bed with, so at least no battery drain. everything is great except radio volume, HD recording and it could be a little more snappier. I changed window animation settings to fast to kinda help with that. Also it is good to change the crt-on animations to off for now til there is a fix for that. I usually leave that setting off anyway.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] banshee56:
I installed this over the XT720mod SBF (with sensor fixes) and it seemed to run fine. RAM was averaging 35ish free, which I thought was a little low given the amount of apps and widgets I run. Two things that kept me from converting from CM6.3.6.2 was the fact that the backlight and sound notification widget buttons are still broke on pretty much every CM7-based ROM and because there are no options for lockscreen delays for screen auto-off and turned-off situations.

Can't say much about battery life, but it cannot be better than the 30+ hrs average I'm getting with moderate usage on CM6.3.6.2 (with careful management of backlight levels, My Location settings, and SetCPU clock speed settings).

I have flashed my phone with 2.1 & then by using open recovery i updated it to this formware but my phone is not turning on since the update. I have tried with two -3 different firmwares. Can any1 plz give me the link & the step by step process for this update.:confused: Right now i have got back to BRAVO 2.2 plz help
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] banshee56:
If you have Bravo 2.2, then you are obviously already rooted. Assuming you have the OpenRecovery by Mioze7Ae, then simply put the ZIP download into the OpenRecovery\updates folder, reboot to recovery, and flash the update. I've found it's a good idea to wipe the Dalvik cache and cache partition and do a factory reset before AND after flashing (reset only after).
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
I have found after flashing a few different versions of this that you will have weird bugs if you do not RSD 2.1 SBF first then do full wipes before and after. Unless you are on this ROM already and flashing again or an update to this ROM. In that case you will only have to do full wipes first without starting over.

The only thing I can suggest is re downloading the zip file and try again. Your SDCard may have corrupted it. I'm no expert though I can only give advice from experience.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] aks_cool6:
My memory card is not corrupt i got it chckd. I have applied the update but after applying my phone gets stuck on the red color M logo it doesnt move further. Plz give me all link tht will help me.

1st which firmware to flash

2nd open recovery to be used

& all the steps.

Thank u
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
I didn't say your card was corrupt, I said the file you downloaded could have been corrupted, try to download it again and use a different one. But also My sdcards get checked and fixed and then get corrupted again then get checked and fixed and still get corrupted again. Even if it says it's not corrupt it still can be corrupt. There is tutorials to show you how to do this already i do not have the time to do all that for you. It's been done over and over and over again in all the threads. Sorry Bud. Sounds like you did it right. All of my issues are sdcard related every time, that is all I can tell you.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
I just realized, I was underclocked to 550mhz since I had Milestone Overclock installed, it was set at it's lowest setting. Brian has this ROM overclocked to 800mhz, which is about right. So after uninstalling Overclock my phone is more snappier now. Milestone Overclock isn't keeping it's setting after reboot. Also I found if you are gonna use V6 supercharger, it is a good idea to uncheck the box for "Unlock home in memory" in settings/system settings.

****Battery life compares great with Bravo

Someone test the motomizer app on this one???

It use to work on all J Y Daddy rom but just to be sure...

And LM if it work you d better use it than milestone overclock

edit Can we have the CM7 led notification on this one or we have to use ledmeknow????

Sorry i had not installed this rom when i post this and now it s done... So i can see there is not the cm7 led notification setting.... Too bad we have to install ledmeknow

edit 3: Again sorry... I didn t see your Led Notify app! Great job Brian lee!!!!!!!

Can you post the apk (if i use another rom...)

I test this rom for 2 or 3hours now and for now it s great! No need to plug it twice to get the usb working(like in fjfalcon's even the last...) it s fast and motomizer work on this one

So to everyone who use this rom my advice is to use motomizer to replace motorola overclock and setcpu

And for all the "non english" multilangage work well too

And for the keyboard issue i don t have it cause i had swiftkey already installed...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] brianlili:
The led notify apk needs another three files, /system/bin/qslang,qslcng,qsldng. all files can be extracted from update file of this thread.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
I just noticed the radio fix update thank you for that Brian! I was wondering about the reboot to OpenRecovery, I still boot into moto's recovery and just wanted to make sure it isn't just me. I think that and HD recording is all that is left to fix. Oh and also media button wake, I thought it worked in one of the test ROM's you gave me but it doesn't work now.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] brianlili:
I readed Mio's advice, that might be a little complicated, need some time to digest.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
Oh yeah I thought the same thing lol. It's not important, just making sure i wasn't missing it. Thanks again good buddy
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Oh! Fixing reboot to recovery in ROMs based on CM6/7 is totally different... sorry. We can do that at the *.so level instead of in the smali. I'll try to remember which library it is, but it may have to wait until I get back to my computer tomorrow. I assumed you were asking for bravo.

Edit: based on browsing github on my phone, I think it's libandroid_runtime.so, but the trick would be finding one of fjfalcon's builds that matches the version inside chronosx. I can't seem to get a link to the commit from the phone to paste, I'll add it tomorrow. I think I keep seeing people creating wrappers around shared libraries to replace/fix functions, but I don't know how to do it...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
The media button work for me. Weird!

Try to enable it with motomizer J Y Daddy make an option just for the xt720 to choose the action for the media button

I m very happy with this rom stable and fast. But this morning i had a weird problem (the first time for this one! i think it already make me all the possible problem...) the music app play music normally then stop then pause then FC....

i don t have the time to test it again but someone had issue with Google music???
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
Yeah that is an example of things that happen if we do not do a full clean install from SBF. I flashed beta over top a test run and I have noticed we get left with something screwey lol. But I was talking about media button used as screen on button. I haven't ran music enough to know about any issues but I have played a few songs and it was fine. Maybe uninstall it and reinstall by pushing it through system in Open Recovery.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] B_e_n:
