so what SHOLS recovery do u recommend to use for ur nandroid?

would different milestone have different effects? such as the European and the Asian milestone? im not sure if they have a difference or not
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] paulodesimone:
hi dexter theme is amazing, nothing else would be wanting the stereo bluetoth headset I use a lot, be very difficult to make a fix for that. paulo greetings.

sorry for my english. very bad
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
i do not know right now, how to come around the bt audio handling HTC uses in their firmware, and the chances are small for it to work on milestone.

Motorola chose to follow the android way of handling BT, where HTC made their own solution, which makes it pretty hard to add proper functionality.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] paulodesimone:
thanks paulo
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dunnera:
what about motodes (android 2.2 + sense = desire firmware)

you mentioned it that you will release it.... so any updates about this project?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
So far its too buggy with official desire froyo 2.2. I got no wifi working and no data connections, so im thinking that we need a real kernel update for our milestone before i can fix the RIL (phone) driver and camera issues, and probably also the important updates to support Teethering with htc and other models.

But i got a *BETA* version released (see MotoIncred), which is just about the same state as desire mod i looked at.. but it more for a showcase, as phone worked, but no data.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dunnera:
will you update MotoIncred or will you focus your work on the other projects, like motofrenzy and motosense?

I also see that you now can easily port firmwares from other devices, what about porting Cyanogenmod on our milestones?

regards
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
not that easily :-)

but i think the Cyanogen images will not work, as the kernel is much different and the libs are problably linked much differently so there not much of a chance here for that to work out.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dunnera:
You think that it will be easier to port roms if motorola releases the official froyo update?

And which changes can we expect for the next version (motosense 0.6)?

regards
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
im looking into Bytecode compiling, which should improve memory requirements. but thats it for now..

When we got a 2.2(2.6.32) kernel, im hoping to get much more running, as then only my HTC mod and MotoBlur will be the interesting mods..

so it will get much more focus when 2.2 officially gets to our milestone.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 1xinfusion:
Why are you tied to using HTC's method? just a matter of curiosity

oh, and i'm having a problem regarding phone cals..

when my phone call connects to the person I am calling, he/she cannot hear me for the first 1-2 seconds.

also, 3g sometimes disconnects and never reconnects. i have applied the dns fix and it did not help.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] tomson93:
When you realse a new version of Motosense ??

Is it possible to in future Sense Ui works in 100% good on motorola Mileestone ??
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
i dont recall seeing the reloads on the froyo 2.2 incred image, but as we have only 256MB and its made for a 512MB phone, i think we all need to buy Milestone 2 when its out, because the Droid2 has 512MB .
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
the framework is based on that solution, and SenseUI is based on it. SenseUI is not just a few apk's installed :-)

so to have SenseUI we need the complete framework, and i cannot rewrite it, as something they have like 30 programmers working on for years, i dont just fix on a milestone..thats simply too much to ask...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dunnera:
So it will be very difficult to get sense ui full workin on our milestones with locked bootloader?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
with 256MB in memory, im looking forward to getting a milestone 2 in the future as that will offer us more options, and yes, hopefully a new unlocked kernel at that time.

HTC senseui is very resource hungry, so there is not much chance of making a fix, unless you uninstall many apps,

or you simply switch hardware as a last choice..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dunnera:
but why needs rosie more memory in 0.5 then in 0.42?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 1xinfusion:
I'm still having problems with the maps application. I cannot update it. As well as the superuser application on the market. Keyboard lighting is also gone. 3g disconnects and never reconnects. As well as the noted bluetooth problems. But go dexter! U have done the impossible, keep up the good work !
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] hairsup:
For Google Maps. Try uninstall with Titanium Backup, then install the market version.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dunnera:
any news about a new update?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
sorry, no BT fix, and no solutions to bytcode compiling, so not much i can fix currently...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dunnera:
Why dont you share your knowledge with other devs?

It would be much easier for you - because then would be a lot of other devs who can help you and so you will have more free time - nobody will expect Roms from you if there would be 10 other devs.

Just write a in detail How to port a Rom, change libs and so on... It hasnt to be noobfriendly.

I really respect your work but it would be better for community and yourself if you share youre knowledge with others.

regards
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 1xinfusion:
It doesn't even have to be a general guide. Maybe u could write down how u got certain features to work on the milestone,

It might be a hard thing to do. Considering how much time u have spent on it. And the amount of time it takes for u to write such a guide. But I think the results will be great for the community
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] domenukk:
You should try compcache (if kernel modulation is possible) or swap on sd card.

at least that's how rosie runs on g1 etc. - with only 100 mb avaliable for android... :cool:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
not sure if compcache works on our kernel, and swap is not compiled into our kernel, so were pretty much lost on those areas..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] jamezelle:
Ill try and take stab at a few of these.....

Currently im working on porting the 2.2 build dexter_nlb has to the CDMA droid. not an easy task.

Writing a guide to porting would be more difficult then actually doing the work right. Basically its trial and error once you get the build booted.

I would bet 100 bucks US that your stock milestone kernel that you are forced to use has module checksumming and/or version checking so you couldnt load custom modules like compcache. Even if you could you wouldnt have the swap free notify patch built into the kernel to make CC faster

Compcache isnt standard in the kernel until 2.6.34, so no its not built in sorry. :( Once the boot partition is unlocked you can boot custom kernels and get both linux swap and compcache working which makes this rom(2.2 incred) fly.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dunnera:
any news or updates? Or focus dexter his work on blur and frenzy?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
i did actually look at it today and tried out some new libs from the milestone 2 on the MotoIncred image i made, and i did get mobiledata working.. but its was really not stable.. somehow the memory allocation issues caused some problem and other boots so i did not find it worth persuing atm..

becides that, no real news on this image..

if the 2nd boot is actually working better now, we might see a custom kernel with swap enabled, so we can start using this normally.. those 256MB will help alot for stability, although its not fixing the BT issue..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dunnera:
ok thx for your update.

But 2ndboot still fails to load modem?

If not i think its useless
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Opteronvoz:
Hello,

I've been looking around but I think I'm stuck.

I tried this senseIU mod but I got messages evaporating away.

After a night or so, all messages went away, a blank list of conversations is all I can see. It gets to that point more quickly if I run 2.02.36 Central Europe and it could stay up to 2 days with 2.02.38 Italy, but well, they still disappeared.

I PM-ed Dexter but he has never experienced that before and he's working on the motofrenzy so I bet I should publish it here.

Additional info:

+ I use the stock HTC message app

+ I have about 2800 messages in about 220 threads

+ I use "SMS Backup and restore" app from the market to keep my messages from my previous ROM.

+ Not just restored messages disappeared but also new ones.

@Dexter: I sorted out the overclock issue, just had to reboot only, silly me.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] bullghost:
please make the southasia version ,

i have test radio band trick on my phone when i flash DACH official rom , it doesn't help

the internet connection (3g/hsdpa/edge) still gone

thanks
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
with this in mind, i think you need to accept that a milestone only got 256MB memory, which means that you got not much space left to actually have too much content in the widgets and databases, as its loaded into memory when sqlite opens it.

so what you call "loosing" it, is simply the app closing unexpectedly, and the imported msg's or received msg's are not saved, before it closes.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Opteronvoz:
I know that I don't have much RAM but I don't think messages that had been there for nearly 2 days can disappear like that (as I was using it normally for nearly 2 days, should have enough time to save).

Also, I have only 5 items on the home screen: 4 app shortcuts and the dual-clock, all others were removed.

:(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] DonDizzurp:
oh man.. i hope you continue (or someone takes over) the froyosense.. i loveeee the htc apps and widgets
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
just learned HTC Vision (HTC Desire Z) has a dump out, so im checking if i can port this to our model..

that HTC model has keyboard + landscape mode support, so its alot better choice to port than previous versions.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
HTC Vision was just another Froyo with no senseui for now, so just an early preview i guess for developers.

but, HTC ACE is another story, i got the framework up and running, but several non-functional things like phone (they have now SIM lock for providers added) so no sim functions yet...

but the senseui runs SOOOO smooth and its really a dream to use it...

never thought a frontend could look soo good and work so fine on stock cpu at 550Mhz... i wonder how it goes with 1Ghz..

i will and get some functionality out of this image, but gsm and watermark needs to be removed, so deodex'ing and some coding is required which might take some time, and the fact the screen is once back to 800x480, so i need to fix that too..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] backfire7:
Terrific job.man.....waiting for the updates
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dunnera:
Looking forward to it.

Hopefully you get bluetooth also working...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] sonsonnnnn:
can wait for an update to v0.6!!!

love htc sense on milestone! =)

THANKS a bunch
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Silico:
Go go Dexter! :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] sonsonnnnn:
wowww wt happen to v0.6?? howcome its nt there anymore?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Rotkaeqpchen:
Yes, whats going on? Hopefully he didn't cancel the project...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dunnera:
maybe he starts a new rom specific thread...

I dont think & hope that he will cancel his great project
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
sadly i cancelled the "MotoSense" upgrade, it was simply worse than 0.5 is today, and still too much cannot be fixed.. even USB was still like in MotoIncred..

But i decided to put it out as MotoIncred update, because it is an improvement to that one, where wifi,mobiledata etc does work in this one, and ppl do use that image, when they have less requirements..

it works, but it comes from a 1GB memory phone, so dont expect too much...

here is part of the readme

WORKING

- Radio (GSM,GPRS,HSPA)

- mobiledata

- agps/location works

- Wifi

- AC Charging (milestone specific option)

- 3D games / full display support

- Video playback (Youtube etc..)

- (G-sensor)

- native apps2sd + ext2 apps2sd(if you want it)

NOT WORKING

- USB

- Bluetooth

- WMA music (crashes phone if music is found)

- GPS seems not to work

- not enough memory, so Rosie reloads (like in 2.1)..​
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
i created a new thread..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
INFORMATION

MotoSense will be discontinued as the MotoIncred image turned out to work just fine, except camera + bluetooth not working..

Reloading might actually be less on the new version. If i find a official odex'd version i might try it out to see it can fix less reloads for MotoIncred image.

If i get to find a Bluetooth solution i will update, but that is the exception.

I expect the camera to get working either with help from Nadlabak or with a official kernel update from motorola in the new motoincred image, so thats the time you have to wait for this camera to work.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] gdstcyg:
good work buddy, but where to find a 2.36 stock rom? im new to milestone. please send me a link.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mohitrocks:
try googling this : GOT 2.2.1 android - either go to androidandme or go to the wordpress website or w.e, sry can't check right now
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] didi58:
Falsch.........
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
IMPORTANT UPDATE

Finally

beat the issue with rosie reloads. See post #1 for the patch to fix this image, if you still use it.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Try4Ce:
Wohoo, as far as i can remember this rom worked alot better and alot less laggy than the new froyosense since it doesnt use so much memory.

i already had alot less rosie reloads than in the unpatched froyo sense release, i guess with this fix the desire rom (not desire hd) should work alot better, even if it has less features.

i will try it out again with the reload fix. thanks dexter, ur the man! :D

EDIT: Oh and sorry, is this bootanimation of DROID still in there? I actually didnt like the voice "DROOOOID" calling me everytime i started up the phone. Especially when i am at my work, quite irritating ^^
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
actually same issue here, with work, when i reboot or got sms's :-(

anyways yes, its probably there too, and you can remove the android_audio.mp3 in the /customize/resource folder and it should be fine..

please, indeed, let me know how it worked, as i only updated this one fix for reload, and did not verify myself, but believed in that was actually the same solution.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Try4Ce:
Okay, got this baby running nice, smooth and stable.

I actually did replace Rosie with Launcher Pro Plus, so I removed all the Rosie stuff and widgets.

Sure, I miss the really nice widgets and general interface, but im totally used to launcher pro plus and with its plus widgets, i can imitate alot of stuff. too bad the stock unlock animations still show corrupted...

Dexter, I cant find an mp3 file in system/customize/ressource ... can i locate it anywhere else?

Some things I noticed:

- HTC Camera crashes alot and once started, it puts a 95-99% load on CPU, draining the battery like hell, even after closing it. In OS-Monitor its labled as "find" or something, but gets discovered in the battery info window. While "find / Camera" is draining battery, the system is kind of unresponsive and sluggish. A reboot fixed it for me. Looking to replace it with another camera app...

- Replaced the Market with the Froyo Market ... Thats alot better now :)

- I guess there is no JIT yet?

- Still have to replace the stock docking station clock with the newer nexus one edition. The included one is really slow, has no automatic brightness and stuff. too bad the HTC clock menu doesnt support widescreen.

- Dalvic Cache is set to 80m? Isnt that a little extreme? What about setting it to 40m and look how it feels? Gonna do that...

Dexter, since I tried out some 2.2.1 ROMs already, is it possible to get the 2.2.1 Edition of THIS Rom (not the Desire HD ROM)?

This one runs ALOT, and I really mean ALOT better than the Desire HD ROM. True, the Desire HD Rom has some nifty new features and a nicer Interface, but I'm totally satisfied and actually really surprised of the speed and stabilty of this "lower" ROM (HTC Desire?). Even with Rosie I rarely have problems running it.

With my current Setup (no Rosie, no HTC Widgets, Launcher Pro Plus in System/App) it runs extremely fast and stable, and with all that additional HTC App goodness I will have a rough time going back, since the HTC Apps are just... impressive. The Phone app by the way is hella fast, loads contacts like lightspeed, and the phone responds just as fast when u get a call, even after being in standby for a while....
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Try4Ce:
Okay, the boot sound file is in system/media ... deleted and not present anymore, thank goodness :)

I ran into an issue with the nexus one deskclock app... seems like it cant be installed or initiated on this rom. can somebody confirm that?

EDIT: Okay, you need a special clock app for the Desire. Found one, works okay, except for the music shortcut, but i can live with that.

Shows now as an additional clock app in the drawer and opens up as soon as I put my Milestone into the Multimedia Dock.

Maybe someone with knowledge can modify it to get all the shortcuts working?

File is attatched.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cherrybombaz:
How can we update the maps, facebook and gmail apps? I tried uninstalling using titanium backup, but when i try to install them from the market, it says "incompatible version".

Also, how can I turn the keyboard light on? It doesn't seem to be working for me when I slide out the keyboard.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] lilhugo:
First off let me say thank you to Dext3r for his hard work.

<EDIT>

I'm an idiot....

I found out how to do what I was trying to do now.

</EDIT>

Thank you,

lilhugo
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] aprex:
thx a lot,for this good rom,but wi-fi and bluetooth still have problem connecting...

and also the HTC official clock won`t flip... :(

is there any solution for these simple problems???
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] amitmiz:
Sorry for bringing back such an old thread, BUT just flashed that, I amazed by the fact that the poor milestone could handle that, it was twice as fast as the DesireZ port

In the motoincred I couldnt play heavy games withought "killing" the htc sense launcher or either use LP..

BTW:I am will use it till GingerMIUI will be released for milestone....
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] LoadEU:
WTF is this...ROM?

Seriously.Any differents from MotoFroyoSense?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] amitmiz:
Y-E-S, first, this is based on 2.1 and not 2.2

second, it is much more lighter which means that you can use at as a dialy rom, you dont need to kill the launcher for every app you open....

just try to compare Froyosense to Senseui mod and you will be amazed...

(BUT MIUI IS STILL BETTER =]]]])
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] LoadEU:
But...I need the 2.2 kernel on my Milestone and SenseUI..Does this ROM change

the kernel?

MIUI=(+/-)IPhone - still sucks.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] jackeh070:
Any idea if there is anyone who could continue the development of Sense rom for our milestones?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] marcelotorres:
This would be great...if somebody continue the development....
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dunnera:
Does this work with the newest Kernels too?

If not, Dexter can you please make a small and quick patch for it. I know you won´t continue this ROM but maybe you can make at last a small patch!

thanks in advance
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] gemini002:
great does not sound good i have a telus milestone too great i want sense so bad:mad:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
i can only say thanks for the extensive testing done here..

But yes, it seems Telus phones are configured somehow differently.

Wifi seems for some to be a problem with dhcp, which probably is explained when you switch between mobile and wifi.

then a reboot is required for wifi to get the dhcp address.

anyways, nice to know.. so Telus is not a solution for this image.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] gemini002:
i think we have to wait for the got team to release the telus shouls think they said on their site that they are working on it think its this one SHOLS_U2_02.38.0
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] gemini002:
sucks man:mad: not really related but we have a locked bootloader on telus milestone some devs are working on it real slowly though can u look into this dexter and see if u can help don't know how good u r but there is no one else on this forum doing anyting http://and-developers.com/motorola_milestone
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cmstlist:
All Milestones have a locked bootloader, not just Telus.

Anyway here's my quick summary of my posts above. If you have a Telus Milestone and want to try Motosense, use Root Explorer to backup to SD from the Telus or Thai 2.1 firmware the 5 files from /system/etc/motorola/bp_nvm_default : File_Audio , File_Audio2 , File_GSM , File_Seem_Flex_Tables , generic_pds_init - and take note of the permissions on these files. Also backup the .apk file for Root Explorer to SD. And take a full Titanium Backup while you're at it.

Boot into OpenRecovery, take a full nandroid backup of your existing Milestone, and then restore Motosense. Before letting it boot up again, apply root from OpenRecovery too. Now let it boot up. Use the app installer to install Root Explorer (or alternately, connect to wifi and install it from Market; but this will require up to 3 reboots to get wifi working properly). Now flip it to airplane mode and replace the 5 files from backup, fix their permissions to match the rest of the folder. And then one more reboot. Once it's out of airplane mode, you should be able to reach UMTS cell towers (including Bell/Telus/Rogers/Fido).

I was able to enter the APN and the phone clearly connected to the mobile data network, but was unable to actually access anything.

When you restore back to stock, you will want to clear data in OpenRecovery first before restoring your nandroid backup of Telus/Thai firmware. Everything went back to normal after restore except for some reason my Android Market Downloads section didn't show all my apps anymore. I fixed this with Titanium Backup's "Market Doctor" feature (donate edition only).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
I dont think im up to hacking the loaders, i already messed up one milestone trying to do so :-)

So thats not an option..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] lahegry:
does this rom work for the droid or just the milestone? I'm getting a warranty droid because me eris keeps messing up but i still want sense, after all that is the entire reason that i got the eris to begin with.:confused::o:confused::)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cmstlist:
Nope, you'll have to talk to Droid devs about that one. Wrong subforum. :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] xphp:
Is it working with 850MHz 3G model? (which sold in Thailand)
