For these steps to work, ensure that your Milestone currently contains an unprotected recovery image (eg. Brazilian 2.0.1 SPF or the vulnerable recovery SPF for 2.1 Milestones).

Also ensure that you have installed the Android SDK so that you can access your phone with ADB.

These instructions are mostly based on user poseiden's guide at alldroid.org, before the site went down and was cleaned up.

How to make a Nandroid backup

Download the ADBRecovery files from here.

Unzip the archive onto the base of your SD card, so that you have a /recovery folder and an update.zip (NOTE: if you had an earlier update.zip, it will be overwritten with the ADBRecovery update.zip, so back up or rename the original update.zip.)

Reboot your phone into recovery menu:

Turn off phone

Press Camera button, then press Power. Hold them both till you see recovery screen.

Press Volume Up and Camera button at the same time till you see the recovery menu.

Run the update.zip.

Connect via ADB and execute:

If you want everything backed up:

nandroid-mobile.sh --backup

If you don't want your installed apps + data backed up:

nandroid-mobile.sh --backup --nodata --nocache --nomisc

How to do a Nandroid restore

Ensure the Nandroid backup content is found under your phone's /sdcard/nandroid/console=ttyS2,115200n8 folder.

Ensure the /recovery folder and ADBRecovery update.zip is at the base of your SD card.

Reboot your phone into recovery menu:

Turn off phone

Press Camera button, then press Power. Hold them both till you see recovery screen.

Press Volume Up and Camera button at the same time till you see the recovery menu.

Run the update.zip.

Connect via ADB and execute:

nandroid-mobile.sh --restore

Type the name of the backup you want to restore.

Telus 2.0.1 unrooted backup

Here's a clean Telus Milestone 2.0.1 Nandroid backup. I found this one on the web, and then I removed the "su" and "Superuser.apk" files so that it's no longer rooted. Sorry, the original source is uncredited as I forgot where I got it from.

As far as I know, there is no shipped SPF of the 2.0.1 Telus firmware, so this is your only option to go back to stock.

http://www.multiupload.com/TA8V2QPJEO

I used this to restore back to stock Telus Milestone ROM so that I could return the device. The only thing different from the original purchased state was the recovery SPF, but that would be really hard to tell or to find out (just a version number difference).
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] slightly:
There's a step missing from the backup process. You need to 'flash' the update.zip from the recovery menu before you can connect over adb.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] dsixda:
Oops! Fixed now. Thanks!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] DAGr8:
no need for a computer to do this anymore custome recovery does all that from the phone now .

(using xperia x10)

I've made a lot of modifications to my stock rom, and would like to share it.... so is system.img a valid way to share my *own* rom or mod ? (valid as in technically feasible? means ppl can d/l it n flash using recovery n use it?)

my main concerns are... will it boot on someone else's device? (i tried it myself... total wipe + clean stock instal, followed by flashing only my backed up system.img, *didn't flash data.img, only system* it took an eternity to boot first time but it ran)

second concern... system.img doesn't have any personal data right? logs, msgs etc are in data partition i guess??
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dchamero:
Ok

The first time it showed up (when activating), it offered the OTA update and I declined. Then I took it home, rooted the phone, and everything went well...

BUT I can't find the OTA update anymore... and the SD card bug is killing me!!!!

Is there any other way of installing it?????
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Akulamenuri:
From the main screen

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dchamero:
But, that ruu is missing may of the included apps (all the sprint and HTC ones, and I need them). Also, it wipes all the information....,

So, no other way? :(
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dchamero:
Besides I read that that particular ruu kills the 4g radio...

So, I am the only one or most of you are running without the OTA update?

I like to root, in fact the wifi tethering is working great, but the SD issue is really annoying....
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vinscuzzy:
i too couldn't get the update to re-show up after not accepting it the first time. i went to system updates and tried both htc and firmware, and the OTA update still wouldn't show. Then i enabled wifi, soft reset, and boom, it showed up. Give it a try, worked for me....
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dchamero:
Well, I had it on wifi all the time, and no luck.... now... when you say "soft reset", how exactly? I just turn it off, and then turn it on again... Is there a soft reset option that I am missing somewhere?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluehaze:
If the root changed your recovery you likely won't get OTA's anymore.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dchamero:
Ok, that's what I was suspecting...

So.. what are my options now? Is there a way of getting the updates manually? or is there a way of changing the recovery back or modifying some settings to re-allow updates?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjalert:
I had the same problem after installing one of the custom firmware images. Never could get the OTA to show up. I ended up installing the stock .6 firmware using the RUU.

Any fix? Search brought nothing. Using aloysius 2.1 but it stays the same on any rom i go to. No jit or oc
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wadeheisen:
Just for the sake of trying, go into DConfig, click the banned apps button, uncheck Sense, save twice and allow the phone to reboot. I know that running JIT w/Sense banned will run 100% awake, but let's give it a shot anyway.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DirtyShroomz:
DConfig in aloysius?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wadeheisen:
yeah, it's in at least some of the 2.1 builds. I know it causes awake time issues when banning Sense. Some reported the issue when not running JIT, so I figure it's worth a shot.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DirtyShroomz:

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wadeheisen:
Only other thing I can think of right now is Live Wallpapers. Do you use them? If so, try switching to a static and see what that does. Beyond that, I am not sure right now.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danaff37:
if you don't have spare parts, go to market and download, or use *#*#4636#*#* to check battery use, you can find the app keeping it awake and uninstall or kill it. For me, it was beautiful widgets, which I'm not using anyway right now, so I uninstalled. Also, check settings/accounts and sync. Look under google, and see if one is way behind the others in last sync time. Me, again, I keep finding picasa us stuck, so I just unchecked it to never sync.

With stock 2.1, I was seeing the issue with Facebook for HTC Sense. As soon as I took the account out, it was fixed. Don't know if that's an issue on any custom ROMs...I haven't seen it on any of the ROMs I've run except for the stock 2.1 zip that Damage put out.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danaff37:
that 0 app is what's doing it, and it's that com.htc.bg I believe, meaning syncing with facebook, calendar, friendstream, etc. you should go into accounts and sync in settings, turning one thing off at a time (also look in google, calendar, picasa, etc. there) till you find what turns it off. Then we'll see if we can find out why/fix it, or just disable it permanently if you don't care

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trindy:
I dont understand the awake issue but I have it too. But mine is weird.

No matter which ROM I use my awake time is fine for the first couple of days. Then, for no apparent reason, it shoots to 100% and stays there. I backup my ROMS as soon as I set them up the way I want them and restore every couple of days. Sometimes I can go 3 or 4 days with great awake time before it all goes to hell lol
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danaff37:
you can pull the apk from the original rom zip file, then push back. Can you try with a fresh install and no apps installed? I think we've about eliminated what comes installed...
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DirtyShroomz:
I already pulled the apk... the only left to do is install another rom but as i said, any rom i install automatically goes to 100% awake... no effect on battery life but its just annoying lol... well at least it doesnt appear to affect battery life but im used to only about 6-8 hours before im at 10% under heavy usage.

I am having the same problem...its driving me crazy
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] notasimpleway:
Can you buy an apparently from the market for less than a Buck? If so, download an app called Autostart. Turn the calendar off on start up. I had an issue with wake time and that fixed it. All those syncs are connected from what I gathered. You can even disable FB and stuff from starting. They seem to hang on start up but are okay if opened later. Be careful with Autostart though cause it changes low level settings and can Jack your phone up. Not break it but things wont run right and you will have to nandroid back. So do a nandroid before and always reboot after changing a setting with Autostart to see if your phone boots correctly. IE no force closes etc

Same problem I'm having! I even installed my apps one at a time to make sure it wasn't any of them causing the problem. When I flash a new ROM, my awake time is fine until I reboot my phone, then it goes straight to 100%. Driving me insane! I was getting almost 48 hours of battery life, and now I'm barely getting 8! :(
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joelee100:
I have been racking my brain out trying to figure out what I might have done to cause this problem...then it hit me that the problem started after I flashed a new radio...

It certainly seems like a hardware problem at this point? I tried flashing different radios...however, the problem still persists. very frustrating...if the problem doesn't get resolved soon ill have to get a new phone

..:(
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joelee100:
I have been messing around with flashing radios and loading roms in an effort to find out what might be causing this problem. At least on my phone I think Opera Mini might have something to do with it.

I went ahead and flashed this radio: Baseband 2.41.04.02.03 | For Fresh Rom 2.0b (I can't post links yet)

Then did a wipe and loaded Fresh 2.1.2 Rom. After doing that I monitored the awake time very carefully. First I signed into Google and skipped setting up any other accounts. Then I loaded Google voice, set up Microsoft Exchange and Lastly Opera Mini. Only after I loaded Opera Mini did I notice that he phone would not sleep.

I uninstalled Opera Mini and the phone still would not sleep, However after I rebooted...The phone does now go to sleep. Keeping my fingers crossed.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DirtyShroomz:
Hmm removing opera and testing
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DirtyShroomz:
Nothing....
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joelee100:
Well my luck ran out yesterday. I installed some apps (Google Voice, Radar Now, XDA App, Tapatalk), Set up Exchange, Wifi, Facebook, Bookmarked some of my favorite websites, and placed direct dial shortcuts on one of my screens. I also Placed one of the HTC Calendar Widgets on a screen.

After every step I monitored my awake time and made sure that nothing I did was causing the phone to stay awake, hence the reason it took me a few days. I even rebooted a few times without any problems. Once I had everything set up the way I wanted, I did a Nandroid backup...

Then all of a sudden the phone won't sleep. I did a Nandroid restore in hopes that would fix the problem, but the phone still wouldn't sleep.

So I did a wipe and flashed Fresh Rom all over again...Now the phone sleeps; but it has only been a little while and I haven't set up anything except Google Voice.

I think at one time I might have flashed the radio from the Eris dump ([Radio] Baseband 2.41.04.02.02 | For roms based on Eris dump). I wonder if that could have messed the phone up? I have a Sprint CDMA Hero. I have since flashed one of the Sprint Radios...Baseband 2.41.05.02.03.

The Radio Flipz links to on the Fresh thread is 2.42.01.04.27...So I guess I'll flash that radio and see if it fixes the problem(although I think I have already tried that radio...I'm not 100 percent sure)

If that doesn't work I guess I'll load the official Sprint RUU and see if that fixes things unless someone else has any other ideas.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trindy:
The only Autostart that I can find in the market is free. Is that the one?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CarbonKang:
What app is that that shows you if you have 100% awake time or not?

Never Mind I got it. I'm at 14% Running.

But my battery still goes down terrible. Is it by chance the battery?

I haven't ever replaced the battery and I have had my phone since February.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AzNJJ:
Has loading the official Sprint RUU helped at all? I'm having the same issue -.-
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joelee100:
Sorry, I never did load the official Sprint RUU... however I have messed around with some different roms and they all have the 100 percent awake problem on my phone... Except Fresh Rom 2.1.2

The only thing that works for me is to do a wipe and flash Fresh Rom 2.1.2. After I do that, I usually can get a few days before the problem resurfaces. Once it resurfaces I have to do a wipe and reflash. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to the problem...

I have become resigned to this and have found some tricks to make the process easier. I use Google Voice and text the wifi codes to myself, then star them for easy access. On my computer, I use Google Chrome browser and I also back up my bookmarks to google docs for easy access using the bowsers synched option. Navigating to Google Docs on my Hero lets me access those bookmarks.

•Just fix the lock screen: http://link.geekfor.me/vanillalock1

•Fix the lock screen and install vanilla clock. You will end up with two “Clock” programs in your app drawer. You MUST set your alarm in vanilla android’s clock if you want to be able to turn it off in the morning. lol. : http://link.geekfor.me/vanillalock2 (you will have duplicate “Clock” entries in your app drawer. One for vanilla and one for HTC)

•Fix the lock screen, install vanilla clock and uninstall world clock: http://link.geekfor.me/vanillalock3

Then reboot into recovery, and choose the option to flash from sd. Flash the option you picked from above and then reboot. Should be fixed.

Did the reboot into recovery, Install whatever and Worked, but din't fix the lockscreen LOL
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] brian m:
Are you using a deodexed rom?

Changes from 2.1.1 to 2.1.2:

•Entire rom has been de-odexd.

◦An odex file is basically a chunk of source code that has already been extracted from the apk and put on /system/. This is done to speed up the first boot of a rom (you know how your first boot takes a long time... that's while it is extracting all of these dex files) and also to save space on /data/. Our stock sprint rom comes with this odex files to give you those benefits, however it also prevents us from "hacking" those files and modifying them. This build has taken all those odex files and injected them back in the apk's. So expect a slower first boot, and more space taken up on /data/, but you get benefits from it such as the vanilla lock screen being fixed and live wallpapers in Rosie.

It was taken from here

I know the lockscreen fix works, I'm using it;)

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] brian m:
