Hi guys n gals

I'm looking for an app which will automatically forward sms (and mms, if poss) to a different phone number?

Currently testing out a sim with a new service provider, and want to use it in my Desire to check signal/data coverage everywhere I go. However I don't want to carry a second phone with my old sim in it, just so I can receive calls and sms from people. Don't want to give out the new number to people yet, until I'm sure I'm changing over.

Of course I can set up the 2nd phone to forward calls via my network, but can this be done somehow with sms?

Thanks! :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] I RICHY I:
Why don't you just transfer your old number to your new sim?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] setspeed:
I will, once I'm satisfied with the new service provider's data coverage/network etc. I'm just testing at the moment.

Since posting I've found an app on the Market which is called, funnily enough, SMS Forwarder which works for sms. So problem solved!

woah, nice work buddy. just got a question, if i apply this rom to my North American Milestone, do i lose the ability to access 3g/hspa network from rogers?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] gemini002:
is gps working
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
i got one guy on IRC from Canada(im from europe, so im not sure on networks you got overthere), he tried it, and it works fine for him

You should try to only flash the system+data image of it, as the cust.img contains telephone info, which might be what you need to keep.

GPS is not working atm..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] tazzpatriot:
im new to the motodroids , will this work on the motorola droid or just the milestone ? ive had the droid eris so im not sure if there is a difference between the droid and milestone, sorry for the dumb question,
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
there is already a senseui for Droid, look for Zeusdroid they made that image.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] tazzpatriot:
ok ill google it to see if i can find it , it is much easier to find eris roms , ive only had this moto droid for to dayz and im lost lol

edit well i found it but it doesnt look like its very functional , if its the one i found
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
Porting is no easy task, when its not about development, and zeusdroid actually do have some customized wireless driver.

But i managed to use the existings drivers from Milestone..

And im probably not going to do programming to make the port perfect, as that not so easy, although i got some experience.. but none within driver programming.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] SplitSnake:
im really happy with the progress dext3r, this is awesome.

just curious, any ETA for GPS fix?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
ive just tried to fix this, and GPS will be working in the next release.

as it works now :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] tazzpatriot:
i know , ive ported some roms for the eris , i understand its not easy to make it all work, trust me im not disrespecting any1
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] gemini002:
crap need gps gunna wait until next update fak really miss sense ui
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] gemini002:
if i install this rom what happend to my apps also i have app2sd applied is this gunna be a problem???
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] gemini002:
awesome pls release this on the weekend would love to try it out also if this is htc sense ui does it have flash lite and if it does have flash lite would the 10.1 flash that works for 2.1 roms work with this...:confused:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
if you know your way on a few linux commands,

then you're welcome to make it work yourself.

1 . copy the /system/lib/libgps.so from the original milestone 2.36.0 image.

2. flash motosense image.

3. mount /system

and copy libgps.so into the flashed image into /system/lib

and GPS works after a reboot.. So fixed!

of course all done from adb shell.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
10.1 for 2.1 senseui roms are not real, it just looks like 10.1,

but the flashlite already reports that number.

and yes, flashlite works fine. tested on a few flash websites.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cmstlist:
I have a Telus Milestone and I will consider trying this ROM at some point.

Just to crosspost from the other thread... in another thread I was told the following. Could be useful for keeping 3G.

So perhaps if you want to try Motosense on your Telus Milestone, then you should backup these 5 files (and take note of the permissions) before flashing the nandroid image. Then afterwards if 3G doesn't work on the Motosense image, restore the same 5 files.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cmstlist:
Ok I wasn't able to flash only certain parts of the nandroid backup so what I did was make 1) a full nandroid backup of the Thai firmware (leaked from GOT) on my Telus Milestone unlocked for Fido, 2) a partial nandroid backup using the options --backup --nodata --nocache --nosystem

Then 3) I flashed all of the motosense backup. Trying a first boot. Will report on whether my NAM 3G is gone.

All I get after the M boot logo is a black screen, followed by a force close notification for system. Nothing else comes up. Long-press Home and I get no recent applications. Oh wait - spoke to soon! Wow, just got the HTC lock screen. Unlocked and now I have the setup screen. Asks me to insert SIM to place calls as if I don't have one inserted. My only option seems to be to press "Skip". Okay, home screen loading up now after the tutorial.

So yeah it's not seeing any phone service and I get "Unable to start Wi-Fi". I'm going to try a second reboot. This time the Droid eye shows up promptly (BTW this is very odd to see because Milestones don't usually have that animation). The phone boots up considerably faster than on the Motorlola firmware. *This* time, I do see cell service. In fact I just got a text message. Wait it just dropped again.

Trying to search for network operators. None showing. Strange! It does see wifi though this time. As the OP implied, DHCP not coming through. Meanwhile my Fido service just came back... VERY weak. Dropped again. Normally both EDGE and 3G are quite strong at my apartment so it's odd. Is it possible this ROM has weaker RF somehow?

Ok trying to set up the APN. Noticing the keyboard doesn't light up. APN set up but still no service. Reboot #3: Yes, wifi works now. Mobile network still very weak. Briefly connected to mobile data and it was EDGE. Test phone call fades in and out. Maps manages to wifi-geolocate me.

Alright, so I'm obviously having connectivity problems and only getting 2G. Let's try flashing back the partial I took from the Thai firmware. To be continued next post.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cmstlist:
Okay! Flashed back my partial backup from Thai 2.1. Rebooting. Droid eye comes up, glares at me a couple times, back to the homescreen. Connects to Fido. Disconnects, connects again. I am still connected via EDGE, not UMTS. I try going to *#*#4636#*#* and selecting WCDMA only - no dice.

Alright well this has been fun. But obviously I need my phone service to work so this ROM is not for me. Despite having dutifully pasted the info up above about the 5 files to backup... I neglected to do so. So it's back to the full nandroid of my Thai firmware. But one thing for sure, Sense is very pretty!

Before doing this, I made one attempt to install Superuser.apk using the app installer, and then to install Root Explorer. Root Explorer was unable to get root. Maybe if I installed Superuser via OpenRecovery it'd be happier.

Okay back to normal. Goodbye for now Sense!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cmstlist:
Backup restored successfully. I used Root Explorer to back up the 5 files in question to SD. Then I restored MotoSense one more time, and before even booting it up the first time I applied root from OpenRecovery. This time it booted much faster. (Is there any way the stock ROM can be hacked to boot this fast? Wow.)

Again, wifi fails to start on boot #1; succeeds but no DHCP on boot #2; works on boot #3. Signed into my Google account and installed Root Explorer (previously purchased). This time Superuser pops up like it should and we're in. I entered Airplane mode. I pasted in the 5 backed up files from the Thai firmware to /system/etc/motorola/bp_nvm_default after mounting read/write. Then I made sure to fix the permissions. Rebooted without exiting airplane mode.

After reboot I disabled airplane mode. Hey, FULL SIGNAL BARS! I did it. But now it's telling me unable to start wi-fi. Let me add in the APN next. Done.

YES! The little H pops up. I'm getting 3G data! But as soon as the icon pops up, it drops out again. In any case I know I'm connected to UMTS because my cell tower ID in Maps > More > About is 1957869 which is my local UMTS tower. Test phone call is *much* clearer and signal isn't dropping anymore. One more reboot.

On the next reboot, wifi is back. Upon disabling it, the lovely "H" shows up and then flits down to "3G". Testing in browser... hmm nope. Something still missing, don't know what. One more reboot, trying again. Internet works on wifi, but not on HSPA (even though the 3G/H icon comes up).

Sanity check: Dialed *#*#4636#*#*, Phone information. Run ping test.

Ping IpAddr: Fail: IP addr unreachable

Ping Hostname (www.google.com): Fail: Host unreachable

One more sanity check: Switched to GSM only, verified in Maps>About that it's connected to a 2G cell ID (57322). Full signal bars, good call quality. So swapping the files improved both 2G and 3G voice performance.

Since I had a bit more success with this approach, I'm saving a backup for future reference, and on my rare moments of idle time I'll play with it again. But back to stock for now.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
i am currently trying to fix the "No SIM card found", as adding data connections would be nice too.. so far it looks as the native framework use a check to see if HTCModem is online, and somehow i think thats where i need to fix something..

but im working on a fix, best update would be to get motosense v0.42 update to Froyo so MotoSenseFroyo is the new version alone..

and cutting down to 2 images is fine with me :-)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] lmtone:
Great Work! thanks! i'm following the update everyday, :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Lizzo:
so am i :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] jakelights:
Yup guys. Will this work on xt720?

Sent from my XT720
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] hsnmz:
i have installted the complete v03. how to install 0.42 update patch
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] alexanderi:
Just copy the update zip to /sdcard/OpenRecovery/updates and run it using recovery mode.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
I have fixed the graphics in the Worldclock finally so the slider is correctly proportioned, the packs due to this is deodex'd , so it offers more space in your internal phone area, and the apps2sd is now using EXT2 .

updates will be posten, when i find it more stable..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] lmtone:
Thanks. expect the updates!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] sonsonnnnn:
thanksss great work! i m expecting an update soon too for the bottom slider icons =)

oh i think that there might still b a lil problem with the camera light . .. although i m nt quite sure how to explain it
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
are you using overclocking? this might affect the calculations of flashrelease? not sure, just an idea.. i read about similar problems on other ports with flash and when its released (i think it was on Modaco forums)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] sonsonnnnn:
Yaa tht culd b da problem...

Actuallly I half 1 more problem too...

I can't install apps from the market ... n ma phone is tellin me to insert ma sd caRd even though ma sd card is in da phone already....is this 2 related?

pls tell me how to fix it .... thanks
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
with latest version there is only one solution, documented in readme.txt.

disable sdcard notification sound to enable Wifi, and enable sdcard notification sound for enable of sdcard.. very simple.. (option found in sound settings)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Coburn64:
Dexter's got a +1 follower on Twitter - that's me. :)

Seems a fun thing to do - disable SDCard Sound for Wifi. Enable the SDCard Sound for SDCard access. Clever.

Looking forward to this ROM! Downloading it now. :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] sonsonnnnn:
oo ok i see . .. umm i think i fixed the problem thanks =)

sorry to sound annoying . .. but i also notice that when in camera mode zoom-in or out doesn't work . .. and also the camera menu is a bit off to the right instead of touching the left side of the screen =P
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] twinklesam123:
Wifi DHCP working & SD card

Hi Guys, i just wana say that i have wifi with no static ip required & SD Card working on my milestone...what i did was i installed v0.3 then apply the updates from 0.4 to 0.42 then i did a factory data wipe then rebooted the phone...then everything started to work everytime i reboot the phone...SD card & wifi is always working! Try it out for yourself!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Silico:
I have done the same by mistake actually :P But I haven't done a reset. However I'm still having problems installing apps from the market, are you able to install apps?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] sonsonnnnn:
umm...im nt sure y..

But it feels like to me as though the htc sense ui is always restarting/reloading ... esp. When i m on one app n press the home button ., or when I add widgets ...then the HTC logo white screen appears n then sense ui is loading again

Sorry but its a little annoying =P
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] twinklesam123:
Yep I can install anything from market,my phone is working 100 percent! JUST PREPARE AT FIRST TO LOOSE ALL YOUR DATA...ie.SMS BEFORE YOU DO THIS.and thats how i got a fully working stable version,i also changed the density to 244 in build.prop and the sense ui seems smoother to me, i also deleted voice dial app and no more restarting for me anymore. Hope my info will be able to help someone.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
Got the original application from Motorola working on this mod, so i will include this with the next release...

Moto and HTC handle Zoom differently, so there is too much coding changes to be done to get the htc application to handle zoom correctly.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
version 0.5 is released.. see post #1 for details.

camera apps + sdcard fixes.. but sorry, Rosie reloads is still there and annoying!!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] lmtone:
Thanks Dexter_nlb!! between the motosense and motoincred, i prefer the motoincred rom, :), Have the motoincred fix the apn add bug? thanks!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] sonsonnnnn:
hello . .. i notice tht some of the htc widgets are missing from the new 0.5 release , such as friendstream, flip clock, news, music. ..

what happen to them?

o and also for some reason the camera zoom is still not working

but nice release thanks!

edit: ok nm . .. after 2-3 reboots the htc widgets appeared ~,~
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] robinsonsam:
I have seen that i need a 2.36 rom

Although looking into my phone i can't tell if i have the correct pre-requisites.

I'm currently running:

2.1-update1

Build : SHOLS_U2_2.31.0

I was running the latest UK rom i can see and i have rooted the phone.

Can i install over the top of this?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
i think you still need the 2_2.36 update before it works..

as the baseband firmwares changed, so the bpsw.img is wrong on your phone.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
you did a wipe? then yes, it does something strange at setup now, waiting for all widget to be loaded, and as memory is full it fails registering them, so yes, this can actually happen.

i actually tricked it, and pressed the "search" button on the lower right, so it cancelled, and rebooted and at next bootup it was all ok, and thats where i made the "image" from.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
i have been unable to find the "tricker" that enables dataconnection. but i might be closing it on it.. but so far without any luck on this, i am still in debug mode on that version, and will not update until i find a fix for dataconnection..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] hairsup:
I'm going to get a milestone (telus) soon and I would like to know if I can use Swap to increase my ram to fix the Rosie reload problem?

I've been searchng this forum and didn't find a post about the use of swap, I might not tried hard enough. But if we can use swap like the htc dream (which is what I'm using), can we avoid the reload?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] pravk:
I am having trouble connecting to wifi access point. It tries obtaining ip address and then says unsuccessfull. I am using version 0.5 on milestone. Is this known? Is there any fix for the same?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] do_hongquan2003:
I have the same problem too. I'm very like this rom but not connect to internet :confused::confused:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] sonsonnnnn:
I tried the swapper app from the market ... but didnt seem to fix the constant reload of sense problem...but does seem to b smoother ...

o btw iforgot to mention tht the lights r out on the hardware keyboard in 0.5 ..howcome?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Rotkaeqpchen:
I'm experiencing the following problems:

- 3D Gallery, Images are flickering

- Bluetooth not finding devices

- WiFi not working, fails to connect

- Hardware Keyboard is permanently changing layout

- Hardware Keyboard special chars are not correctly binded, ö ä and ü are not accessible through longpress.

- Hardware Keyboard backlight not working

- Permanent notification "Setup the Time"

It's a great modification, but these issues force me to flash back my backup.

possible solution to rosie reload

hey op and everyone else, how are you?

i have a cdma droid but figured i'd drop in this section to see whats going on and this rom got my attention since i love the sense ui

have you by any chance spoke to anyone from the zeusdroid team or jamezelle? maybe you guys can exchange some info. i've been using the zuesdroid and the reloading of rosie drove me nuts, but what the zeusdroid team figured out is to partion the sd card and use DroidSwap. ever since i started using it, the reloading was history and the rom ran much better to the point where i used it for 2 months now.

i dont know if it will work or not but it's worth a shot, if i had a milestone i woulda been testing it already but here's the link and u guys can give it a shot. it does need root access but if you have this rom flashed im sure u have root :)

i take no credit for writing the info in this link

http://www.droidforums.net/forum/bl...built-source-fast-working-3dlauncher-220.html

i just followed it, it worked perfect for me, hopefully it will work for you.

one other thing in the droidswap settings is that there's a feature called swappiness, i set it to 100. u can try the default or different ones as you see fit.

good luck
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] dvdscr:
phone keep crashing.

the com.android.com is crashing and will not allow me to use the GSM phone feature.

kind of a problem when taking into consideration this is a phone :confused:

is there a solution for this issue?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Rotkaeqpchen:
If someone could help fixing the wifi issue i would be very happy and could use the mod. But without wifi its almoust useless... :(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
how did this work for you?

tring it it says to me "sysrw permission deined" and typing "su" says

"sysrw

sysrw:not found"

how did you do that?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
the simple fix that works is after you have seen "once" that it says disconnects.

you can reboot phone and it.

the problem is the dhcp service only activates after a reboot and can allocate memory for the actions, so it works when ap is configured and phone reboots.

or you chose to use static ip, remember to disable wifi and enable again for it to work.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
if we had a custom kernel like droid, it would work, sadly it dont..

our kernel does not have SWAP support.. so its not a solution..

but thank you for pointing out that our phones with only 256MB must accept that HTC with 512MB makes it work, but not as our phone is not made for that sense ui, so reloading is here and stays until we get custom kernels, and thats up to motorola to open the boot, so we can modify kernels.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zgmf-x322a:
this version is excellent...but only some minor problems, the lagging...i will be using this rom in the long run :D keep up with the good work

- 3D Gallery, Images are flickering

- 3G/HSPA unable to load properly

- unable to search network after rebooting sometimes

- Home icon rearranged when using landscape mode and the Sense bottom bar covers some of the lowest row icons

Swapper 2

Hallo,

ICH HABE of this Tool " Swapper 2 " Habe keine Reboots Rosie mehr , und ist mega Schnell.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
you must be spamming the threads? the application is spam ware and does not work on milestone, so i think its something you would call FAKE!!

but ad based, so it makes money for those who made it.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
3D Gallery seems to work fine here, so im not sure if its related to the amount of data, and again a memory problem allocation space for it?

i personally dont have much on my phone like that.

3G/HSPA must be a baseband issue, install the proper baseband radio and it should work just fine.

When we get a kernel with SWAP support, we are doing much better as that means memory can be extended with just those 256MB more that HTC phones has. our problem is that we got a resolution of 854x480 and scaling graphics and keeping them in memory takes up alot of space.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] twinklesam123:
Graphics

Hi Dexter May i ask how did you fix the icons at the bottom of the clock, call history...etc? since i currently have a stable & fully working version (no static ip required) of 0.42 perhaps let me see if i can put the graphics bug fix into my nandroid and let me put it up as an extra option for everyone. since the 0.5 dont have backlight and rosie reloads alot more than 0,42. in my 0.42 i changed inside the build.prop the heapsize to =60m and i it seems like that my roise dont restart to much anymore.

Plus i realized that the moto cam on 0.5 only kind of works...but when the flash is on...it takes the picture very quickly with a abnormal flash...it seems buggy on my rom. since it only shows a quarter of the pic...

Thanks
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
Its not so easy to fix.

Framework files are the ones i changed code in, and those also happen to contain the crypto keys which is loaded at startup, so if you replace framework.jar all other apps will not install.

the keyboard should work fine, if you just disable "auto" backlight in the htc menu, thats what i recall people wrote.. and the fact that the old version has the keyboard script in the background draining battery its not really so efficient to include.

moto cam&recorder i have not tested on older versions so i dont know how they would work.
