[Motorola Droid X2] Mr.Holmes:
I ran it for a whole day and loved the look and feel of it. A few problems I encountered:

1. Would not let me access my voicemail because it wouldn't accept my password.

2. FC when i would try to load certain widgets.

3. Made my 'incall' volume very low.

4. Would not load the only game I have on my phone.

And the obvious issues of no wifi, mms or camcorder. I tried all the issues above periodically throughout the day with the same result every time. I just wanted to share what I experienced, I would Love to have this on my phone daily.
[Motorola Droid X2] 754boy:
Did you ever get the time to finish whipping up that tutorial?
[Motorola Droid X2] twobrare:
I will get to it. I will try to get this done some time in the next few days ok 754boy!
[Motorola Droid X2] 754boy:
Ok thanks man, take ur time. :highfive:
[Motorola Droid X2] stateq2:
I am having this exact issue. I have C Spire, and after flashing this, it sits at the Motorola logo forever. I would love to try this, as I am sick of slowness of the stock install on this phone.
[Motorola Droid X2] 754boy:
I posted that for Alpha 3. Alpha 4 works just fine minus the wifi. :good:
[Motorola Droid X2] stateq2:
Ah ok...my device was acting a bit flaky due to a corrupt su binary.
[Motorola Droid X2] twobrare:
Did you get it worked out?
[Motorola Droid X2] twobrare:
I wanted to post this

"Dose his work on JB mean he isn't releasing Alpha 5?

My thoughts exactly."

This is saying from the original thread. It looks like the next update is not going to be coming because DKZ is working on JB. So.... we will follow up with that and figure that out.
[Motorola Droid X2] apacseven:
IDK where you're getting that, this is not the case. Quoted directly from chat:

[22:59] <@MoonShadow-NM> So, I take it CM9DX2 is in it's "final" state since Google dumped JB on to the masses?

[22:59] <@dragonzkiller> MoonShadow-NM: no

[22:59] <@dragonzkiller> i'll still work on CM9DX2 because it's "featured" right now
[Motorola Droid X2] twobrare:
Thank you for clarifying that up. I was trying to read that I was reading through the forum. So I am still encouraged that he is still going to be working on cm9
[Motorola Droid X2] stateq2:
Yeah, apparently I using an outdated su binary. Updating it allowed me to install a different rom (Eclipse) properly, and I will be attempting CM 9 again later tonight.
[Motorola Droid X2] twobrare:
I will be trying to work with someone on getting release for alpha 5 to us!
[Motorola Droid X2] 754boy:
Thanks alot. Can't wait to try it :D
[Motorola Droid X2] Mr.Holmes:
I too cannot wait
[Motorola Droid X2] twobrare:
If anyone wants to do it here is how I did it!

1.	Download the file (alpha 5 from DKZ thread)

2.	Unzip file

3.	Install Notepad+ if (if you do not have the information)

4.	Open META-INF ->com->google->android

5.	Open updater-script

6.	Delete (package_extract_file("system/etc/releaseutils/check_kernel", "/tmp/check_kernel");set_perm(0, 0, 0777, "/tmp/check_kernel"); assert(run_program("/tmp/check_kernel") == 0);

7.	Save file

8.	Go back to MITA-INF folder

9.	Open cert.sf

10.	Delete line that states “Name: system/etc/releaseutils/check_kernel SHA1-Digest: 7Yp/GdXiSin0EdDeDtKVr6gdhz4=”

11.	Save file

12.	To go system/ect/releaseutils/

13.	Delete file check_kernel

14.	Put the non-zip folder on SD card in phone

15.	Open root explorer and navigate to where the folder you edited was saved and zip file.

16.	Once zipped then it can be flashed and good to go!

This is how I modified DKZ’s file to be flashed on the Milestone X2. If you have questions please let me know!

Let me know if you guys have questions are have a link I can update the thread!
[Motorola Droid X2] 754boy:
Thanks for the tut. I'm going to get to work on it now. :laugh:
[Motorola Droid X2] 754boy:
Ok, modded, zipped, and tested. Works on my MX2. I'm uploading it now and will shoot the link to twobrare so he can put it up in the first post.

Kinda bummed that wifi is still down for us. I'm going to try to contact DZK and see if he can point me in the right direction to get it working. :cool:

Edit: Until the OP is updated, here is the link to CM9 Alpha 5 for any other MX2 users who are waiting to try it out.

http://www.mediafire.com/?rx1x4lz95mzau3k

Also, I got on IRC tonight and was able to work with dragonzkiller to get wifi working. So he whipped up a nice wifi patch for us! Head over to his CM9 thread to get it :)
[Motorola Droid X2] Mr.Holmes:
If you don't mind me asking, did you make the same changes to alpha 5 as DKZ made to his version?
[Motorola Droid X2] 754boy:
This alpha 5 is all his work. All I did was remove the kernel check so we could install it.
[Motorola Droid X2] dragonzkiller:
If one of you guys every get a chance, could you get me the output of "uname -a" from a shell on your phone? I might have time to quickly rewrite the kernel check in CM9 so it'll work on your phones as well. That is also assuming you all have the same kernel version. If you don't then, well you might as well just keep doing it this way. Of course, if you had a different kernel version the wifi patch wouldn't work, but you know :)
[Motorola Droid X2] 754boy:

Looks like we all have the same kernel version so I'm jumping on the band Wagon as soon as I can get everything downloaded. I'm open to test anything. My store isn't exactly root friendly but I know some people and some tricks to get my phone working should something bomb.

*edit*

Forgot to ask if there was any hope for cm10 or jb being brought to the mx2 as well. I'll test and put my very minimal(next to none:'() coding skills to work if someone can get it ported. Also patched re recovery should work too just flash it last before rebooting after doing the final wipes.
[Motorola Droid X2] 754boy:
DZK is working on JB as well. He got it to boot but its in a really raw state I suppose.
[Motorola Droid X2] Lrs121:
Beyond raw then, got it. I wonder how it'll perform I still don't know all the specs of the dx2 or the mx2.

*edit*

got the ported cm 9 running and if its anything like this then itll be amazing
[Motorola Droid X2] 754boy:
If you guys want to play around with the new Paranoid Android rom, I've got it running on my MX2 and can upload it for ya. It has some really nice features.
[Motorola Droid X2] Lrs121:
Haven't looked much at paranoid android yet so far I've been a cm fan coming from having it on my first phone but I like trying something new ill take a look and see if it's worth jumping ship after finally getting things set up the way I like.

[Motorola Droid X2] Mr.Holmes:
I'll def give it a try
[Motorola Droid X2] 754boy:
OK, I PM'd csking33 about adding my link to his original ParanoidAndroid thread. But for those who can't wait, here is the link:

http://www.mediafire.com/?ch1v8t3sy1sl8bs

Flash it the same way as usual but you have to flash the hybrid gapps posted int the PA thread here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1808058

Just follow those instructions and you'll be good. Since it is based on DZK's CM9, you'll have to go to his thread to get his wifi patch for MX2. For those too lazy to go to his thread, here is the link: Milestone X2 WiFi Patch (for all versions of CM9): http://d-h.st/Pdy

Enjoy!
[Motorola Droid X2] Mr.Holmes:
So I installed and followed the steps as instructed. I liked it and spent some time customizing everything the way I want it. I rebooted and after the CM9 boot my screen reads

Android is upgrading...

Optimizing applications

Starting applications

Then just sits there forever, will not start. Pulled the battery and get the same thing every time I boot. I had the same issue with DKZ's cm9, so I gave up on it and stuck with Eclipse. I was hoping I wouldn't have the same the problem. I stared at it for like 20 minutes to give it time but I'm guessing it shouldn't take that long. I haven't read that anyone else had this problem. Any ideas anyone?

I'm referring to the Paranoid Android ROM
[Motorola Droid X2] 754boy:
You'd probably be better off asking about this in the PA rom thread. Mine said the same thing when I first booted but it started on up just fine..
[Motorola Droid X2] Mr.Holmes:
thats whats up, thx for sending it our way tho, ill check on it over there, had to sbf so im rerooting now to get back to eclipse until someone can help
[Motorola Droid X2] wamason:
I have to say that this rom has made my mx2 worth having. I followed the op directions, installed the wifi patch, and am loving cm9. Thanks to all of you who have contributed to making this work!

[Motorola Droid X2] wamason:
Some small quirks are still present but overall, this release is much more stable. No lockups or restarts since I flashed. This is my new daily driver. Thanks for all the hard work!
[Motorola Droid X2] Lrs121:
Glad you haven't had any problems. I take it you data wiped before flashing?

[Motorola Droid X2] wamason:
Yes, and cache/dalvik. I was ready to run my MX2 through a shredder before this rom, so I'm very happy now. :)

Unfortunately so. When I finally get my aosp machine up and running ill see if I can work on some fixes and maybe work with dzk on kexec and jb. But cm 9 is pretty much done with.

*Edit* put cm 10 instead of cm 9

Sent from my MX2 running DZK CM9
[Motorola Droid X2] twobrare:
This is some sad news.....
[Motorola Droid X2] Lrs121:
However we may be able to get jb functioning. Expecially if the dx2 kexec works(doubt it) then we can swap kernels for one that fixes the graphics issue and possibly others. If only moto would release the source code for the mx2 kernel.

It could be an app changing these settings. I have flashed this on several peoples phones and they have not had this issue.... Let us know what you find out.

Omg no one has heard of this? I've been trading phones a lot and coming from the dinc and fassi, both devices have linaro builds of ics, which greatly increases the speed of the rom. There are many forums that outline how to do this, I just don't know how to any of it.

[Motorola Droid X2] twobrare:
I do not think it will. DKZ said that he is not going to continue working for the CM9.
[Motorola Droid X2] Lrs121:
I skimmed over it and It might be possible as long as it doesn't require any kernel changes. I'm mean we can insert modules like dzk did to get the wifi working for us. But I'd have to read more to know for sure

[Motorola Droid X2] Mr.Holmes:
i change my CPU control top bar to 1000 because its always on 750 when i check it, is it supposed to change back on its own or is there a way i can make it stay on 1000? everything moves so much faster when i raise it
[Motorola Droid X2] Lrs121:
It should be set to 1000 by default. Have you tried checking the set on boot setting?
[Motorola Droid X2] Mr.Holmes:
Yes I have checked apply on boot, I've had this issue for a long time so I thought it was normal, it stays where I slide it for a little while, like a cpl hours, then the phone slows down so I check and its back down, I have no idea how to fix it
[Motorola Droid X2] Lrs121:
My best guess is that there's and app that's changing it like rom tool box, set cpu. Or something and it's taken control of it. It may also be a problem that lies deeper in the system config files but start with the apps if those aren't the problem I'll see if I can find the file were that is set and we'll see if we can get it to persist from there
[Motorola Droid X2] Mr.Holmes:
That's cool, thx allot bro, might have to walk me thru it as I am still very new to all this, but I appreciate your time very much

[Motorola Droid X2] Mr.Holmes:
No problem, I'm on your time so whenever you get a chance I'll take what you got, thx again
[Motorola Droid X2] Lrs121:
Ok so I've tried a bunch of things and have discovered that the system settings for the speed tweeks was designed for controlling the cpu of the dx2 through its kernel. Since the mx2 has a slightly modified kernel those settings will not change at all. I spent some time searching through file but I had little idea of what I was looking for. The things that work don't persist through reboots but stay while device is running (so far in my tests). So down to what works is modify the cpu speed through an app. I recommend set cpu, rom tool box, or maybe android overclock. Sorry I couldn't figure out something more permanent. It's just outside my range of knowledge.

Sent from my MX2 running DZK CM9
[Motorola Droid X2] Mr.Holmes:
i have always used rom tool box to access the cpu, ill give the other two you mentioned a try and see if theres a different outcome, i am very grateful for you taking the time tho

Hum interesting. I'll keep working on it but I'll be severely limited on time since classes start tomorrow.

[Motorola Droid X2] thirdfloornorth:
Still a bit too complicated.

First and foremost, let me thank you all IMMENSELY for the work you've done. This is often a thankless undertaking, but you have done amazing things for the community of usually overlooked Milestone users.

That being said, don't let what follows sound like a critique. It's not, I just want to make ABSOLUTELY SURE I don't brick my phone (when I had my Desire, it was a lot harder to brick).

Honestly, this is still a bit too vague for my taste to try it. A few questions

How? Honestly the various threads for the different BSRs are giving me a headache. It'd be nice to have some clear-cut directions here, in the first post with the instructions, so we wouldn't have to go searching and get messed up.

Also, how do you know which one is patched and which one isn't? They aren't well labeled.

Lastly, what about this one? Re-Recovery, for a safer Bootstrap

It reminds you at the last step of anything that could wipe your Bootstrap, to reinstall your Bootstrap. Does this work for the Milestone X2? Would it do patched vs. stock BSRs? It obviously couldn't differentiate, couldn't tell you which you need to install...

That's this thread? This zip? If so, I'd probably take that last part out, as we ARE in the thread, and it's a little confusing D:

Again, thank you guys so much, I hate being a bother, but when it comes to flashing ROMs I'm a "Measure twice, cut once" kinda guy.
[Motorola Droid X2] helloterence:
Anyone having issues with data not working randomly? I have turned off wifi, restarted the phone numerous of times yet I cannot get data working again. I try reactivating my phone hut I can't put a call out as it tells me to take my phone off airplane mode which it is not in.

[Motorola Droid X2] Lrs121:
Thirdfloornorth

The recoverys we use for mx2 are boot strap.apk for stock systems, and motodx2 - signed - bootstrap - cm7.apk is for any system running cm7 or cm9 hence patched. Both are meant for us stock is what your phone comes with from moto(if you haven't flashed any roms yet that's the one you want) Download them from the very bottom of the op. ReRecovery doesn't work well with our phones (cmX is the patched version) and it has to be flashed from the bsr so you need the apk first. Though I flash it any way just in case. Yes this is the correct thread I copied and pasted the instructions from the dx2 post and that slipped my notice. If you want it removed from the op you have to pm him I don't have the time to do it right now. This is the zip you want. Any other questions feel free to pm me.

Yes it happens occasionally. Connect and disconnect from a wifi point by turning your wifi on and off it should restore your 3g data connection if not restart with wifi turned off and it will come back. Also try fixing permissions from the recovery I don't have that problem as much when I do that. Almost rare that it happens

Proximity sensor

I have been unable to get the proximity sensor to turn the screen off when I'm in a call. I had followed some suggestions and "how tos" from other threads, and have been unable to find a solution. Does anyone else have this issue, and if so. Has anyone fixed it?
[Motorola Droid X2] :
Are you using a case? I know that my otter box interferes with the proximity sensor all the time.

Nope the problem occurs with or without the case.

Wiped cache and D.cache rebooted still didnt work. Son used phone as he walked away and put the phone to his ear the screen went off. For two days i have tried everything without a clue, now works flawlessly. O_o
[Motorola Droid X2] Lrs121:
Possibly a flaw in the way the sensor was working and was calibrated after several uses, your son being the final test. Mine has issues too, but more of a lack of the screen turning on during a call when I need it too.

Hi all,

This will probably get deleted, but I'm just trying to contribute to discussion and get around what I consider a poor thought-out rule at the same time.

I am a long time reader, particularly of the [ROM] ICS 4.0.4 BCM RC3.4U0 GSM/CDMA <2012-05-19> (Bravo CM9 HWA) thread, but first time poster.

I consider myself to know more about the topic than a large number of the posters in that thread, though I certainly don't have knowledge on the subject anywhere near that than the experts in the thread. However, there have been many times when I have had the answer to someone's question, but have not been able to post.

The reason I cannot post is because the thread is limited to users who have made 10 or more posts. I can understand the need to filter out people who are asking the same question over and over again, but in doing so you filter out those who can genuinely contribute to the discussion. Just because I am not an active member in other forums of XDA, does not mean I am not able contribute to this thread.

So now, I have what I consider a reasonable question for the author of the thread, or another expert who may come across it. This question hasn't been asked before, and it bothers me that I cannot ask it. Other people may also benefit from me asking and receiving an answer to this question.

I thought about just creating 10 pointless posts in the general forum, but decided that would benefit no one. So here is my contribution to these forums, followed my 9 pointless posts. Kidding, I'll see whether I get responses to this and respond accordingly myself.

Thanks for reading.
