Hi,

Thanks for this great ROM! finally a newer ROM where everything works!

I was on CM7 till now, because some apps were crashing for me with CM10+, now it all works!

Only problem is the bluetooth audio, I used to be able to play music through bluetooth (had my phone synced to my car's stereo) with CM7, now it connects, it even says it is connected for multimedia, but when I play something sounds come out of the speaker of the phone, the stranger thing, is that the name of the track IS displayed on the radio as well as the track control for back/forward from the radio works!

Any idea?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Y_Yan_C:
please, the baidu drive is unbearable
[Milestone 2 Android Development] rabinhood:
Unfortunately I don't think so. Is wi-fi tethering working? It's crucial for me.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] handsomeboy1702:
has anyone been able to download the latest ROM? could you please upload it to another site? i can't download it from baidu
[Milestone 2 Android Development] andrelozer:
I'm also having problems downloading the ROM. I've downloaded the last build from 'baidu', but the new one is not starting to transfer at all, I click at the download button and nothing happens.

Edit: After some minutes trying to download I've got it to start, I think it was just an error in the server.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Y_Yan_C:
please upload it to somewhere else, i still cant download it
[Milestone 2 Android Development] K!LL3R:
mediafire, google drive, whatever,

but just dont be baidu drive:(
[Milestone 2 Android Development] mattheoh:
I upload the zip on mega : https://mega.co.nz/#!dhtTBLqD!MT9EODIzZmBv3SqvervmBBhXYYZdsCyPeUSO1hQi_cc

enjoy.

What's the best way to go about getting rid of PDroid in the latest release? At the minute I've just frozen PDroid Manager with App Quarantine...
[Milestone 2 Android Development] andrelozer:
I just uninstalled it through Titanium Backup but any root uninstallation app would do, I believe.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] handsomeboy1702:
I've been plagued by media process eating up battery like crazy for the last 2 releases of this ROM. anyone else suffering from this?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] lulli1:
pdroid manager is just a app. uninstalling this app does nothing more, than disabling the control function of opd.

pdroid itself is implemented (patched) into the framework of this rom. when it's unstable, only the dev. is able to fix that. but without opd you aren't able to set permissions of all apps. so every app and especially google apps can access all your information. every root app is able to do whatever it want to do, without controlling their permissions... So i think a fluid and correct implemented pdroid funktionallity is what every costom rom should support.

thanks to engle_mars, for working on that so hard!!!
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Mookfoof:
I agree, in theory I like the idea of tightened security and it is great that engle_mars has worked hard to get it working. BUT, I just don't like being nagged about every single permission. If I don't trust an app with my permissions, I usually just don't install it to be honest.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Legza:
Agree. Simply disabling all the permissions of the app by noob without thinking on it will definetely make the app unstable/unusable. And advanced user can observe permissions before installing, or view the logcat, and decide, if he needs this app in future.

In fact, there are only two permissions that may need to be disabled - internet access and send sms/call number. These permissions can be disabled without openpdroid via 3rd party apps.

Since CM10.1 is not completele stable at moment, I do not see any advantage of bringing more instabilities by involving new services in it. And I do not want to waste my time to control permissions of my trusted apps too.

Imho, of course. I really appreciate engle_mars' work.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] lulli1:
did you guys ever take a look into opd management app?

if you don´t touch this app, nothing will be changed at all. all permissions are set to enable status by default. so if you don´t want to waste your time, please just do nothing! :cowboy:
[Milestone 2 Android Development] or.green:
Hi,

Had the same problem, someone here suggested "Rescan Media root" app, it allows you to stop the media scanner service and run it manually when you need it.

Solved the problem for me, but of course this is a work-around, need a fix for this in the ROM.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] handsomeboy1702:
I ended up formatting the sd card. It solved the problem for me.

One more thing, foursquare constantly crashes upon launching in the latest build.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] or.green:
Hmm, makes sense that formatting the SD would solve it because there is no media to scan, however, I suspect it'll get back to being a problem once you have enough files on the SD card...

I wonder what would happen if I just let it run for a few hours, would it just finish scanning the SD and stop hogging the CPU?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] handsomeboy1702:
I copied all the files on the card to my computer, formatted it with the phone, then copied the data back. Somehow media scan has stopped eating up the batter since then.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] JUGGERNAULT:
Hi peoples,

And about bluetooth headset fix?

Ty to all effort.

I cannot access Mediafire, google driver for the GFW problem. So I have to use Chinese network driver. I have to say sorry to you.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Engle_Mars:
Thanks. For GFW problem, I cannot upload file in media or google doc.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Engle_Mars:
Thanks for you. For GFW problem, I cannot upload file in media or google doc.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Engle_Mars:
The major problem is the SD card has too many file to scan. You can create empty file that is named '.noscanandnomtp' under the folders that you need not to scan. To me, I add this empty file in all folders under the root folder of SD card, except the folder "DICM", 'Audios', "Noticifitions", "Alerm". After do the previous steps, you can find the system speed will very quick and no more battery usage.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Engle_Mars:
Please refer to FAQ 1.:victory:
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Engle_Mars:
Yes, but it will happen after you restart your system. To resolve it you can refer to the first page FAQ. Thanks.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Engle_Mars:
Yes, lulli1 is right. Default it will allow all permission to all application. You just need to deny the permissions to the application that you do not want to leak your not trust.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] handsomeboy1702:
thanks for your reply.

how about foursquare crashing constantly? i travel a lot, so it's kind of a useful app to me.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] rabinhood:
Is it possible to run wi-fi tethering on this ROM somehow? Maybe with some external application? I tried, but was unlucky.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] andrelozer:
Yes. I use an app called "Wi-Fi Tether" from Google Play and it works great. It's free, by the way.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] rabinhood:
It doesn't work for me. When installed it takes me to android settings panel, where I can check a box and turn on tethering. Unfortunately then the option becomes grayed out, and nothing changes (the option freezes). In particular there is no wifi hotspot visible from my laptop.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] andrelozer:
Try this one:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.googlecode.android.wifi.tether
[Milestone 2 Android Development] rabinhood:
Thanks! It's working!
[Milestone 2 Android Development] MiguelX:
Usb tethering only works if I have activated USB1 interface from the terminal with the command "ifconfig USB1 up", before enabling tethering.

I have not tried if this also happens with wifi
[Milestone 2 Android Development] mIRChele:
thank you engle_mars!

just a question: is there a way to remove the ip call button on phone application? I don't know very well how to use it (it asks me for a number in the settings, but i don't know which one i have to put in), and i prefer to keep just the standard call button. thanks!
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Engle_Mars:
I think I will add control to show it or not in next version.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] ullivilli:

[Milestone 2 Android Development] vinicius.rodsilva:
Hi!

I've installed this, great ROM, by the way! But I think I'm having problems with the camera, don't know if it's a particular case, but it's very laggy, sometimes it freezes the device, it can't record in 720p (at least I didn't see the option in settings), and sometimes the recording cuts the audio...

Does anybody know if it is a known bug?

Thanks, and congrats for the excelent job! :)
[Milestone 2 Android Development] handsomeboy1702:
there are some mirror links a few pages back
[Milestone 2 Android Development] mIRChele:
i noticed a problem in the message app. When I choose to send an SMS to more than one contact, it automatically converts the message into an MMS (which is insanely more expensive). I don't think it is really needed (and other roms doesn't do that), so it would be nice if it could be fixed too :good:
[Milestone 2 Android Development] xenusr:
In attached file fix for error in

Custom Recovery > Advanced > Partition SD Card

Apply, reboot and Enjoy!
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Engle_Mars:
Thanks your patch.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] vinicius.rodsilva:
I'm having problems to install this new version (05-24), by the OTA Updater it says "can't mount sd card ... .zip", and trying to update manually it says

"E:"Failed to verify whole-file signature

"installation aborted"

:(
[Milestone 2 Android Development] n1phantom:
I am installed last update just fine, download it from Copy. I think your OTA has errors while downloading.

Foursquare still crashing :( on latest version
[Milestone 2 Android Development] XYlow:
Thanks for the awesome work! With the new update I have two problems. Whatapps says it does not support the tablet version. So I can not start it. The second problem is, that when I flash the german key file I get boot stuck at the cyanogemod logo.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] mIRChele:
Happened the same to me. Do a backup of WhatsApp using Titanium Backup first, then restore the backup in this rom.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] qubbey:
Some issues still bug me:

The on-screen keyboard is not swippable.

The hardware keyboard ist QWERTY not QWERTZ. And the back and menu button on the hardware keyboard are not working.

Since the newest Update all my german words are underlined as errors again.

Everything else I need works pretty good, except the performance is not that good, but I guess it's the hardware that's outdated.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Finalus:
I registered specialy for this thread. This Is The BEST CyanogenMod i ussed on ms2. Preformanca Stability and Look is Great but have Hudge mistake for me ;/ No Tetherring... WHY ?! it have everything and this function is disabled . All Roms i ussed have this option (i have no cable internet) why this is not working ? USB tet. didnt work even with some aps. Can i please you to turn on this option on. You will get another hudge fan and finance support (not big im just a student ^^). This is the most value function for me but if you are so good is there an option to turn flash light by pressing camera buton ? (Alll my phones have this function but on newest i have to open apps ;/ this is step back)
[Milestone 2 Android Development] handsomeboy1702:
for tethering: try this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.googlecode.android.wifi.tether

for torch: you can add it to the quick setting on the notification bar

[MENTION=4877702]Engle_Mars[/MENTION]: I don't know if it's placebo effect, but the phone runs much more smoothly after the latest update. foursquare still crashes though. great work!
[Milestone 2 Android Development] L3ibnitZ:
Sorry for OT, but i don't know where to ask.

Is something like swipe to wake for the ms2 possible? Something like that:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.ponury.pgm2

Thanks! Great work!

(I know i could just use my GN, but i really miss the HW-keyboard)
[Milestone 2 Android Development] wqt0926:
Based on 2.6 kernel or 3.X?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] L3ibnitZ:
The Rom is based on 2.6.32-9
[Milestone 2 Android Development] qubbey:
You can use the home, menu and back button to toggle the torch while you are in the lockscreen. You can find this option in the system settings under lockscreen settings.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Finalus:
I already have on menu button. But usualy when i want to use flash light it's dark and cold so i have gloves so hardware button will be better option.

Tethering is unable to turn of by any apps (i try 4) . There is also no voice sms (i talk phone write). I found another problem when i play games like Bad Pigies when motorola heats up i get freez for couple minutes then restart.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] altgrr:
The A2DP functionality works in CM10. But it is not part of Apollo - I think it is part of the core Android audio system. The A2DP headset just connects for media audio, and Android routes media audio to the headset. Apollo doesn't know anything about it.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] ncc74656:
Are there any requirements for installing this rom? Or simply flash in recovery + wipe everything?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] lulli1:
yes, thats all...;)
[Milestone 2 Android Development] ncc74656:
What files can I copy to have HW keyboard from tezet's CM10?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] lulli1:
doesn't work.

you have to tune the keyfiles in this rom yourself.

tezet has made a selectable hw keylayout in several languages. this rom doesn't have that....

what layout do you need?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] ncc74656:
I think it's not important now...my phone died after installing this rom. Flashing sbf also does not help.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] DJPatriX:
It's not enought info. What you've done after that? Because for everyone from here simply flash does not kill phone.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] ncc74656:
It was restarting very often so I wiped cache again. After that it was stuck on red logo. Didn't know what to do so I flashed stock sbf. Now it doesn't even show moto logo, but allows me flashing sbf files.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] DJPatriX:
I guess u choose wrong sbf for flashing. I previously have the same problem, but flashing bl=4 rom helped me. But I'm now stuck on BL4 roms. After u try to do this please check every other way. U can try to flash this china rom, with more signed kernels. Or wait for some other replies.

Sorry for my bad english, if u don't understand something just ask ;)
[Milestone 2 Android Development] ncc74656:
Can you tell me which sbf should I flash?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] DJPatriX:
China moto relased some rom with contains signatures for older kernels, but i have no idea where to find it. Some of files from their sbf has been used for downgrading method here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1497263

But this can be wrong way.

All roms with description you cand find here:

http://and-developers.com/sbf:milestone2

But downloads propably don't work. Compare filenames and download from here:

http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts_milestone2/list.php

Or use google.

As I said, my phone only start's after flashing one of bl4 roms (2.3.6 argentina or brasil). But after that I can't use any older rom.

cheers
[Milestone 2 Android Development] ncc74656:
Thanks, this worked. Now it is on stock GB.

[Milestone 2 Android Development] DJPatriX:
My bad, thank you for correction. I fixed link in my previous post :)
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Finalus:
Ehh new version old problem. Realy... This version is for me like a product . So if you want a product you have to buy it.... but how the hell i can pay for something what have no function i need most ! Plz Mars Have mercy fix the tetherring USB only if other's is bigger problem. Name Price I have to pay for this funcion, because rom is awsome but i have to use tezet because he have tetherring
[Milestone 2 Android Development] rabinhood:
But really, I had problems with wifi tethering, somebody at this forum recommended 'WIFI Tether for Root', and it's working well for most of time.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] enviros:
@ Engle_Mars, I appreciate your work:good: , but I have a little suggestion. Can the model number change to A953;)
[Milestone 2 Android Development] lulli1:
why don't you go to the file build.prob and change it yourself....
[Milestone 2 Android Development] enviros:
Sorry my bad,
[Milestone 2 Android Development] handsomeboy1702:
cos the phone model number is really A953?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] enviros:
I'm a Hong Kong citizen. Technically HK is belong to China, but my stock Milestone 2 rom model number is A953( UK version) . So I just make it correct.

Btw the lock screen background/wallpaper will freeze in camera after launch camera in lock screen? .:confused:

& how to set different wallpaper on lock screen and launcher?

I recently encounter this problem..

When I reboot phone

sometimes every application's data are cleared and everything are reset to default

(for apps I installed only)

It is the second time..what had happened actually?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] lulli1:
sounds like a problem with mountig your sd card to me. try to enter your sd card with a file explorer. if this doesn't work. format your sd card and try again...
[Milestone 2 Android Development] mattheoh:
Did you try the last release ? I read, engle_mars corrected this problem... I had the same problem, cant tell you if the last update is better, cause the solution I found since the beginning is to install / move my apps on phone storage. Tell us if you try...
[Milestone 2 Android Development] K!LL3R:
I had a different situation, as I have moved all apps to phone storage before encountering the problem.

Just installed the newest release, try to see if anything happens..Thanks by the way.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] enviros:
Battery consumption

I'm curios about what is your Milestone 2 battery %/hr:confused:.

The phone idle and cell standby become the majority battery drainer should be normal. However, battery drop 10% when idle ~4hr. This drop seems not quite normal:rolleyes:
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Kootee83:
From last 2 or 3 updates i have problem with WiFi widget on "Notification drawer" and also WiFi tile on "Quick Settings panel". They both can only turn off the WiFi, but not turn on. Also the WiFi widget icon from Notification drawer is lighted all the time, whenever you have WiFi turned off or on).

Does anyone has this problem too? Is there any workaround?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] rabinhood:
I have no such problems. WiFi icons's working fine. Maybe try re-flash or /data and /cache clearing?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] enviros:
WiFi tile it works fine in my case, but WiFi is not going to assume itself after wake up. Also press and hold WiFi tile, when WiFi on, get into setting page is not responding. WiFi driver maybe need some treat.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Engle_Mars:
I fix the kernel drain after 0608. Please try the newest one.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Engle_Mars:
This bug is fixed after 0608. You can try version after it.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Engle_Mars:
Please send the log by logcollect to me when you meet such problem again. Also add some steps, Thanks
[Milestone 2 Android Development] vinicius.rodsilva:
I'm having a problem with the lastest version, I've installed it and used the device normally during the whole day. But today I've tried to restart the phone and the CyanogenMod doesn't start. The boot animation runs infinitely and the system does not start.

I tried to wipe cache and Dalvik cache and even reflashing the ROM, but nothing works. After reinstalling the ROM, the system starts, but appears "Android is upgrading - Starting apps" infinitely too.

Does anybody know how to fix it?

I don't know if it's a new bug or what, but I could use the device normally until I restart it for the first time.

Thanks!
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Kootee83:
I've had the same problem first time, when i've flashed newest update. Step by step: flash update, clear data and cache (+dalvik with it) - boot - and the same result as you describe - infinite system load screen.

So i've tried other way: first wipe data/cache and then flash newest update (without wipe after installing update) - then everything gone right.

Ps. About the indicator / widget WiFi problem i wrote before - after this wipe everything is ok. But I have no idea why it was broken. I've found some interesting error texts with wifi in logs, will send it if you want - mabe it will help in future. But I hope the problem will not return.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] vinicius.rodsilva:
I'm going to try this, thanks!
[Milestone 2 Android Development] vinicius.rodsilva:
I'm having another problem now, my battery just stopped charging. Even when the device is plugged in the wall with the phone turned off.

The screen shows 5% and in about 10 minutes it decreases to 4%, and then the device turns off. With 5% I can't even boot the Android.

I don't think it's a problem with the ROM, but does anybody know if it's a problem with the battery?

Initially I thought it was cause I forgot to wipe the battery stats, but didn't solve anyway.

I'm thinking about buying a new battery tomorrow, but I must be sure that this is the problem. :(

Thanks again!
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Kootee83:
You've supprised me. I've had exactly the same problem, but as you i thought it can't be problem with new update. So maybe it's problem with this update? Anyway - first when i've runned system it wasn't charging and when battery was empty it turned off. I thought it broke, because i've used the option "Fix permissions" from boot menu earlier, and from there started problems.

But after some charge on telephone turned off (it wasn't display charging screen - which is strange, but the white LED near the charging plug was lighting white so I understood it is charging despite the fact no charging sreen at display) it started working. I don't remember if i've done something special. It just started working after off-charging and starting system (i've plugged charge after full system boot, maybe it's the reason - charge on tel off, then unplug the charger, start system, wait all is up and then plug charger again).
[Milestone 2 Android Development] vinicius.rodsilva:
Yeah, same situation... randomly I could charge to 40%, but it gets back to the first situation, stuck on boot animation. :-/
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Choristav:
Same problem here, after wiping and installing the rom it boots the first time but as soon as you restart the phone (for whatever reason) it gets into an infinite boot animation and the only way you can use your phone is entering recovery mode and wiping everything again. So basically you can't restart your phone or it soft-bricks.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] vinicius.rodsilva:
Exactly!
[Milestone 2 Android Development] mattheoh:
Ok so I should be carefull to not empty my battery ^^

Thanks for this information.

Someone tried to go back to previous version ?
