I have done it for sms, contacts, email and some other apps i.e. unticked them in HWA Setting. You should feel any difference while running these app, but if you do it for some game or video apps you'd feel it.

Also RAM manager is a good utility app if i'm not mistaken there is free and paid version, not sure what the differences are though, I am using paid (pro) version. Suggest to try free version and then to decide for yourself.

Hi,

one strange problem on this rom is:

The keayboard app is set to default after every reboot. I have to set swiftkey as default every time :(

Is this problem only on my device?

thx
[Milestone 2 Android Development] PatrickDziura:
I doesn't understand the HWA settings yet.

And I applied V6 and KAK scripts, can I use RAM Manager too?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] [BRA] Giovani:
does not work here.

Rename it to bootanimation.zip and pasted in the folder system / media. I changed the permissions to equal the original file, but without success.

Any tips?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] PatrickDziura:
It isn't a flasheable zip?

Tryed to flash it?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] harisit2005:
just flash it...it'll work...
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Megalith27:
You need to remove untick the apps that you dont want to use HWA.

I havent used V6 or KAK so I cant comment on that one.

[Milestone 2 Android Development] PatrickDziura:
The apps that use HWA use more from the phone?

I have to disable the apps that I don't want to use HWA right? So, I disable the normal apps (Messages, imo, phone) or the games?

And i cannot change the dpi :/

Someone knows?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] yuriebc:
can anyone post some instructions to use HWA Settings??
[Milestone 2 Android Development] altgrr:
I know it's ages since you posted this, but I'm replying in case anyone else comes up against the same problem.

This happened to me, and I think it was a problem with the cache partition. I tried to format the cache partition in recovery, but it didn't work - it said it couldn't mount it. I had to reflash the stock GB ROM using RSD Lite (using the instructions at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1032372) and start again from scratch. But once I did that, everything worked fine.

My problem could have been caused by starting off from Froyo, or the fact that I tried Engle Mars's 4.2.1 ROM first - I don't know. But the RSD Lite procedure was painless.

Hi my friend

I suggest you flash custom kernel and install cm9 ics sfc3001 .because cm9 based on gingerbread and it is very faster than jellybeen .

Please try it and tell.

Thanks
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Zambo27:
thanks, it worked well

the phone is fast and responsive, without big problem
[Milestone 2 Android Development] ncc74656:
Is there any procedure how to do that?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] rabinhood:
Just as you flash any custom ROM - with ClockworkMod recovery mode. And to flash kernel you use RSD Lite on your PC - like flashing generic ROMs.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] ssjoker:
Hi

for flash Custom kernel go to : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1931968 and download lastest Stock plus kernel version (v5).

then flash it via RSDLite in this link : http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=784077&d=1321414457

install CM9 ICS sfc3001 : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1623385&highlight=rsdlite

Hello.

I had similar problems. Flashed CM10.1 over Tezet's CM10 and quite frankly it was awful. Frequent lockups and reboots made the ROM unusable so I tried flashing back to CM10 and then encountered the cache partition error that you spoke of.

Now I have reflashed EU GB SBF via RSD Lite and the phone is stuck on bootloop. Tried several times but to no avail. Any ideas?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] altgrr:
I followed the guide here, and it just worked. Can you get into stock recovery, and have you tried calling "wipe data"? If you can, that might help - and it might also show you if there are problems with the data partition that are stopping it from booting up.

I don't know the details of how the SBF files work and whether trying a different SBF would help - I picked the one that matches my phone and it worked.

I'm not an expert, but I hope that's pointed you in the right direction. Good luck!
[Milestone 2 Android Development] crazyteknohed:
Managed to get it into stock recovery and, lo and behold, still reporting /cache errors. A format and cache wipe later and the phone boots up.

So maybe it's possible to just use stock recovery to format/wipe cache when there are /cache errors rather than re-flashing a stock SBF?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] lulli1:
its always worth a try. helped me several times when i got a boot loop. flashing back a stock sbf is the last way i would go, cause its more work :D

I'm having a lot of problems now, I'm getting the same error regarding the aosp keyboard and ola updater and when I plugin the USB I get nothing. How do I restore using RSD lite if I cannot get a USB connection?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] altgrr:
To restore using RSD Lite, you need a USB connection.

What you have to do depends on what you mean by not being able to get a USB connection. If RSD Lite can't see the phone after step 3 in the restore instructions, then check if you get a USB connection when plugging the phone in normally (does the phone detect that it's connected via USB, does the phone offer to change the USB connection mode, does the computer detect the phone when it's not in charge-only mode?). If you can't get a USB data connection - even if the phone charges over USB - chances are your USB cable is broken. It's possible that the USB cable will work with other phones but not the Milestone 2 - I have encountered that before.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] thetaylor:
Ok, that was my fault. For some reason it took me a while to get into the bootloader. Anyway, I'm using a UK milestone 2 and I've tried both british SBF's from that page and neither work. Any suggestions?

---------- Post added at 02:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:37 PM ----------

I tried that and still received the errors.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] DJPatriX:
I have the same problem later, it's always happens when I flash my m2 to 10.1 and after that I make downgrade to cm by tezet.

But my solution for that is simple and work for me. Firstly flash original sbf (for me is one of bl4 rom's) and after that go to classic recovery and do full wipe. For me works like a charm ;)
[Milestone 2 Android Development] lulli1:
you guys have problems, because of the filesystem. engle mars took 4, tezets is based on 3.

i think a few pages before engle explained what to do, to change back file system.

my way is: restore a nandroid of tezets rom. and thats it....:D
[Milestone 2 Android Development] DJPatriX:
The best solution it's just wipe data from stock recovery. That's all.

Accidently exited Bootstrap, phone hangs a CyanogenMod boot animation

Hi there,

CyanogenMod is the first ROM I try to flash to my unmodified Milestone2. I followed the green steps from this thread's first post.

Unfortunately I couldn't proceed to the steps in red because I accidently fired an action (I think it was the uppermost option (reboot) in the Bootstrap menu.) The phone rebooted and hangs at the beautiful CyanogenMod boot animation.

There is another error I made: I installed the CyanogenMod ROM CM10-20121228-NIGHTLY-milestone2.zip already in step 3. Before creating the backup. Does this mean that the backup I created is corrupt?

The boot screen is shown for about half an hour now and the LED glows red.

Pressing the power button (long or short) shows no effect. So what's next?

Can my phone be saved?

Help is very much appreciated.

Regards MaeSiuS
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Lean946:
If you did a backup after flashing CM, you created a backup of CM, not your original ROM.

Regarding the phone hanging in the boot screen: take the battery out, put it back in, turn it on, and when the led flashes blue, press the volume down button. Go to recovery, and wipe data.

Good luck.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] MaeSiuS:
Cyanogen up and running

Hi Lean946,

thanks for your advice. Cyanogen is running now. Google apps were missing. Got the gapps*.zip but the bootloader you enter by pressing X+Camera+Power and then @ had no option to install zip from SD-Card

But the one you get according to your hint has this option in the Recovery section. Now I can start reinstalling all my apps.

Once again, thank you very much.

Goodnight,

MaeSiuS

Hello!

I installed this mod, however for some reason my milestone 2 is performing really slow, while the processor is set to 1000mhz.

Does anyone have a clue what could be the problem and how to solve this?

Regards,

Leon
[Milestone 2 Android Development] lulli1:
1. never quote the OP`s

2. do you have a clean installation, or a lot of apps installed? Do a full wipe in your custom recovery and check if your problems are gone. If not:

3. flash the crossbreeder. That will speed up your phone. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2113150

recomendation for all users!

4. go to the following path with any root explorer "system/build.prob" and open that file as a text file. Scroll down and add the folling line:

sys.mem.max_hidden_apps=4

save this file. Don´t change the permissions! Must be rw-r-r. And reboot.

You will set a max. prozesslimit with this line. (For any other users. This won´t work on cm10.1 roms. CM removed that funktion for later builds than cm10).

5. Reboot into bootloader and overclock your MS2 to 1.200 Mhz. Increase the vsel as well (mine are 64 at 1200 Mhz). you will find some other experiances in this thread. Use the search function.

6. flash the BoostedASSv2 governor http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2013117

good luck!

hey guys after long time using this rom i decided to flash back stock rom 2.3.4 italian retail, but after flash i got stucked into moto logo. pressing x while booting up nothing happens, so i can't go into stock recovery for wipe cache and data after flash. i tried to flash uk sbf and ch/at/de too but always same problem. any suggestion?

if you follow your link, you will see, that this app doesn´t run on Android 4.2 and up. This thread is for Android 4.1.x, so you shouldn´t get problems.

of course a little.... but as you don´t need the highest level all the time (just in case of multiple processes at the same time), you won´t really realize it. Try it out and find the answer. You can undo the overclocking when ever you want....

if you would like to use this rom. do it! its the most stable/reliable and well ballanced custom rom for our device yet. all the other 4.x.x roms are not developed to a really finished release.

to get more responsiveness, you could reduce the "max_hidden_processes" in the bulid.prob and install the boostedAssV2 governer and install crossbreeder.

if you don't know how to do this things, search this thread.

[Nook Color General] rodneyshupe:
OK to start I have CM7.1 on my eMMC works fine for many months. I want to install MIUI.us_encore_1.9.16_Eng_Deo_ZipA_Signed_andmer ROM and it does not seem to work. Using CWM 3.2.0.1 flashing looks successful but when I reboot CM&.1 is still on the eMMC.

Tried doing a reset to default using EVRY technich suggested on these forums. No Go.

Using ADB I thought I would manually delete and push the system files over. I mount the system partition /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 and removed the existing files then pushed the new system files. But once I unmount and remount it reverts to the old files. The changes don't write dispite seeing the differences with an ls -al in ADB before the umount.

So I thought I would check the partitions and using fdisk via ADB. Deleted partitions 5, 6,7,8 and rebuilt them but when I write I get.

I also used the 1 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 fix and format zips with no joy.

I can boot to MIUI via SD but I want to put this on the eMMC.

Any ideas on how to fix this?
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
Yes, the first thing you do is upgrade that CWM. It is too old. You can get a new bootable CWM on my tips thread linked in my signature. Then I would reflash my repair zips as instructed in my partition repair thread. (Sounds like your partition 2 is ok, skip that). Don't forget to reboot between the repair and reformat. Then flash your rom with the new CWM.

Edit: oh, you changed the version in your original post to 3.2.0.1. That version is ok.
[Nook Color General] rodneyshupe:
Thanks for trying to help.

OK created a bbotable SD using the CWM-based Recovery v5.5.0.4 (CWM-5.5.0.4-bootable_SD.zip from your tips page)

Used that to apply NookColor-emmc-repair-partitions-1-4-5-6-7-8.zip

Rebooted into CWM-based Recovery v5.5.0.4

Applied NookColor-emmc-format-partitions-5-6-7-8.zip

The applied MIUI.us_encore_1.9.16_Eng_Deo_ZipA_Signed_andmer.zip

Rebooted the eMMC and still running CM7

I then retried the repartitioning and the following message was listed when I checked the log:

Which matches the results I was seeing from adb.
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
When you boot to your SD version of your ROM, can you save anything to the emmc media partition? I am wondering if somehow your emmc chip became read only. I have had that happen to my SD cards before, so it may be possible that it happens to your embedded chip. They act like they have been written to, but when you come back, nothing has changed.
[Nook Color General] rodneyshupe:
OK Booted the SD with MIUI on it and was able to (or what seemed to be) save a file to the eMMC

BUT when I rebooted it was gone. It is like the write does not take on reboot.

I can even edit the file and it seems fine but the file is gone once I reboot.

It is like the changes are cached but not committed.

So I thought I would try creating the file and even edited the file from USB after booting the MIUI SD. Then when I stopped and restarted USB connection and then the file was gone.

So Somehow the eMMC is readonly.

So how do I fix that?
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
That is exactly what happened to my SD. Looked like everything took, but take card out and put back in and changes did not last. This happened on my phone SD. No amount of trying different PCs, different device readers, formatting programs, partition managers, nothing would work. I could read and copy things from it, but never got it to accept anything. I just bought a new one. I know that won't work on your embedded chip.

You are lucky at least you can use your SD to run things. I have found there is no significant difference between running on SD and emmc.

Maybe someone else has some info how to fix it. I searched the web for a long time looking for solutions and found nothing. One other user here on XDA has reported the same symptoms on his SD, but I never heard of anybody that this happened to their embedded chip. Sorry.
[Nook Color General] rodneyshupe:
Thanks for trying to help. It is appreciated.

In the case of your SD did you try burning an image over top?

I was thinking if I had a complete image of the eMMC I might be able to use dd via ADB to overwrite the whole thing. Back up the files from partition 2 first and then write them back once it was finished.

Thoughts?

Problem is where could I get a "good" image of the entire eMMC?
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
For my SD I tried everything. Images, formatting, partitioning, etc. Nothing could be written to the device.

You can make your own images of emmc by dding in reverse and write emmc partitions to your SD via adb. But if it is truly read only like my SD was, you will be able to write nothing back no matter what tool you use.
[Nook Color General] rodneyshupe:
Yea I was hopping I could get an image of the entire working eMMC that included the partition tables and see if that worked in case the problem is related to a setting in the partition table.

Looking at screen 20 on the ifixit nexus 7 breakdown you can see that the screw lugs on left overlap the LCD where the right side do not. So based on reports that loosing the screws solves the screen lift issue, I would think the permanent solution is use shorter screws. This will be easy fix for Asus.

What do you all think?
[Nexus 7 General] shaneydroid:
I put smaller screws in my first one and it did improve the situation a lot but so did putting washers on the screws (under the screw head, not in the casing).

But the general feeling seems to be the contact point for the adhesive is so narrow in places that it comes unstuck easily. If that is the case, the screws aren't going to matter.
