[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michaelm718:
I have the same problem as you!!!! I posted it in the wrong forum though so I'll briefly psot my problem and maybe someone can help me. I was trying to update my radio to the latest radio and it worked. I then realized I didn't have a 4g signal and the mod I was using supports 4g. So I tried updating to the latest wimax and then my phone started rebooting. After it boots android it reboots after a bout a minute or 2.

I FIXED it with a nandroid restore which had my 2.1-1 back up which I made during the idiot proof guide. So thinking that I can always use that backup as a restore I tried re-installing the radios because I don't see how they could not work on my phone and thought maybe I had a corrupt file, but voila my phone started rebooting again, but this time nandroid restore tells me to fix it via adb restore, BUT my usb isn't working either. So I'm stuck and have no idea on how to get this thing to load my restore. Any help would be appreciated.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] branded:
I didn't read you're reply. But after installing RA, I think I'll be alright...

Here's the deal from start to finish...

download and install the android SDK

install all the necessary drivers

restart in recovery mode ( adb restart recovery or hold volume down when powering on the device)

use adb shell to access the shell while the device is in recovery

1) install RA recovery using adb method (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=705026) This may or may not be okay with or without running unrevoked first... not sure if flash_image was placed on the device by unrevoked.

2) reboot into recovery

3) flush dalvik cache via RA recovery.

4) flush cache via RA recovery.

5) use adb push to copy a downloaded ROM zip to /sdcard/update.zip (using RA recovery to mount the /sdcard/ partition)

- I've downloaded http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=7512117

6) Install update.zip from sdcard in RA recovery

- After booting into the new ROM one time, I allowed it to start and configured... then performed 3,4,5 against flashing a new kernel: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=719763

And that should be that. I'm currently downloading the ROM, so I don't know how it'll be.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Singhman:
I bought the phone on release day in Canada. I have 5 days to return for exchange, but not sure if I should even bother. Here's the problems i have been having:

1) A few times, the phone just turned itself off (without making any noise or anything)...and the only way to turn it back on was to re-install the battery. This happened about 5 times so far (i thought it was ok because it didn't happen for about 5 days, but it happened again today). It seems it could be a software glitch, but i'm not sure

2) Battery...seems to drop pretty fast. for example...i unplugged it at about 8:30 am this morning...read a word document for 15 mins, talked on the phone for about 22 mins, surfed the net for about 15 mins (data), and looked at a few settings for 10 mins, google maps for about 10 mins, and the battery is at 63%. (here's the breakdown):

Voice calls 57%

display 25%

Cell standy 8%

Phone idle 5% etc...

Is this reasonable? Some say the battery gets better with time. Someone here even said to drain the battery completey and recharge a few times to get better results. However, this is contradictory to what i read online. It says to not let a Li-ion die out completely. what is the proper procedure? Is it too late for me to have a good battery because I have been charging it randomly over the last week?

3) Reception...sometimes i enter a bad area, and i get zero bars (the blue crossed out circle), but when i step outside, its stays like that for a minute or two sometimes, then the bars go up. Shouldn't the phone get full bars right away when I leave a bad area and go outside?

I would really appreciate any help i can get from you guys on this matter. Not sure what to do here. Thanks!

ps- my GPS has been ok so far
[Galaxy S I9000 General] voodoochild2008:
1.	That not good and main reason to return for new.

2.	That’s the norm, yes it gets better but not by loads, plus it’s down to if you have full brightness/gps/sync with online stuff..weather/FB/Twitter and if you run live wallpapers.

3.	Down to where you are and who you have as provider, this can have big difference.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Frostshock:
I know it's within 14 days and less than 30 minutes talk time for a full refund, but I'm not sure if you have to be within that limit if you ask for an exchange claiming hardware defect.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rocketpaul:
No.1 seems a bit odd to me. There is no real loss if you get it replaced to be honest, i got mine replaced because the screen wasnt as perfect as i would have liked(greenish whites). At the end of the day you paid for the phone so you are entitled to one that is working properly.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MOJO783010:
Return to sender

In my opinion you should return it for a good one ( the phone is really great) or you could try flashing a new firmware (better return it) . The battery does get better with time ( had the phone for about a week and it is improving with each recharge cycle ). As for the the signal issue i can say a have a similar - ish problem. Inside i have 1 to 3 bars max ( but call quality is not affected , no droped calls , etc) and outside i have full signal strength. The problem with it taking its time to connect back to the network after signal is lost ( 80 % in my opinion ) is android as this happens often with my other phone ( GT I5700 Galaxy Spica ) which is connected to another carrier with a weaker signal strength.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Singhman:
Actually if you buy from best buy the 30 min rule doesn't apply. Its just 14 days. That's for bell mobility by the way
[Droid Incredible General] th3drow:
just wondering if anyone notices also that most all of the calender events don't show up that are a month+ back. Is this something that is normal? it makes me worry that my events will disappear.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] solarkit:
just try it,phone have no sound.....

but still smooth,does this overclocked??
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] beju69:
how slow it is? It can be overclocked?

Downloading :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
This has been officially dropped now..

the Droid2 uses a different RIL driver handling using a socket for commication which out milestone currently does not support. so there is no chance of having drivers from any current firmware on milestone to run with the droid2 firmware.

you can get it running, but no audio on phone when talking, if you do see it running but calls are dropped, "ro.mot.eri=1" should be disabled to 0 if you wish to pursue testing it.. if it appears slow, you need to disable the "TtsService.apk" in the /app folder, and its runs optimal.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Silico:
What will be the focus of your work now Dexter?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
:-) back to something that actually just works (at least for me) Frenzy!!

will try to see if the data connection with E,H etc, gets to work..

testing a different libril on frenzy now..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
i take that previous statement back! (MotoBlur was too good to pass by)

See updated Post #1 for info on next release.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Midda:
Glad to hear you're going back to focus on Frenzy. I have pretty much zero interest in anything else until I have Froyo running on my Milestone properly. I'd be running it already if the camera and native A2SD were working.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
you will have to wait for an official, as the kernl is all our problem here in regards to camera, which i have no idea on how to solve unless the droid 2.2 kernel gets out, and its can be extracted from this, so we know how the device should function for us.

i admit to not being able to fix camera or Apps2SD as it looks right now, as no kernel provides the solution we need.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] nsane:
At this point, my hope is that the people working on the Droid X find a way to circumvent the bootloader. In turn we could use it on the milestone.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Corbiliano:
Muito Bom,

Tô louco para testar :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Silico:
My point exactly too, i've been chasing up on the developers over at alldroid.org and at koushikdutta.com/ who both are developing ways to circumvent the bootloader. They said that there work couild be easily ported to our Milestone considering our phone uses the same locked bootloader as the Droid X. They have said that they will be releasing a version of Froyo tomorrow so I think it would be a good idea to see what there work involves and see if we can apply it to our Milestone.

www.alldroid.org

www.koushikdutta.com
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] nicholasbgr:
Fingers crossed here.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] leogone:
Good news,thank you!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] alexanderi:
So, when can we have a first hand feel of your art-piece?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] nsane:
Hmmmm it seems that the Froyo image that will be released today for Droid X is actually a Leak. Therefore, it most likely will not imply circumvention of the bootloader.

Shame. Well, we will know for sure in a couple of hours.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
droid2 is a better match for our milestone, driver wise as well.

So i would not get my hopes up for droidx to be just as good port.

But with my changes in MotoBlur so far, its getting much better.

I have not updated thread here, but several fixes are added, and im trying to get USB activation working, so thats not an issue, which it suddenly became last night.. Testing is good!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] nsane:
Excellent job Dexer! Thanks so much for all your efforts.

Have you found a way to circumvent the Kernel problems with the camera and app2sd or is that still a dead end?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
you hit a soft spot here, but no, with the protection motorola put on the kernel, and the fact that apps2sd functionality, swap, and the camera focuc driver is tightly integrated, and second we dont know how the focus driver works at all.

the official kernel2.2 for our milestone needs to get out, or maybe the droid 2.2 kernel source. but lets see how it goes..

Rumours are September, so lets hope it holds water...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
First release v0.1 is now available online.

Mirrors will be posted, where i find the space to put 125MB.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Corbiliano:
Baixando.....

:D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Silico:
Going to give it a try now :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Silico:
Is there a reason why the notification light it permanently on blue?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] iaio72:
off and back on, the milestone, the blue light it'll stop working! im tested now!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
hmm, when you're at the main screen, or at bootup?

i heard this from another user, and i use the "blue" led in 2 places..

1st is when partition2 (ext2 assumed) is located, and during apps copy/recovery, it will lit up.

2nd when usb is switching it goes blue when enabled, red when disabled
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Silico:
Well after a restart the light is a non issue anymore. Also I have a number of issues I have found so far.

1. For some reason I seem to be receiving text message notifications multiple times of the same text.

2. The Voicemail button in the dialer always closes and causes me to drop my network.

3. There is also no option for data roaming in the Wireless and Networks menu (Im guessing because of the Verizon network)

4. Flash seems to be much laggier than MotoFrenzy.

5. Youtube videos fail to load.

Other than those minor problems its a great and refreshing Rom :)

Keep up the good work Dexter!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] iaio72:
after boot, that after the phone is switched off and restarted, and the blue light disappears ..

great job and thanks
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
This might actually be a minor mistake on my side..

In the "build.prop" in /system, you find the option "ro.com.android.dataroaming=false", this might just enable it again, as it originally was "true", but i disabled it. (option misunderstood)

this command will do it in one step for you. (with adb shell)

remount ; sed -i 's/ro.com.android.dataroaming=false/ro.com.android.dataroaming=true/' /system/build.prop

I havent tested flash actually, but i will do and let you know the results

i discovered this right after my upload..

Can you maybe test with "adb shell" a little test?

in adb shell write this below in adb shell :

remount ; chmod 4755 /system/bin/mediaserver

reboot, and test youtube again.

Youtube works here for me now, and so does the droid2 video demos..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Silico:
I can confirm that the Youtube app is now functional, however i'm still not given any roaming options.

The biggest problem for me is that every time I receive a text message, my phone seems to receive the exact same text message 3 times. Giving me 3 separate messages in my thread and 3 separate notifications which is obviously annoying.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
thanks for the confirmation!

i can see it now, but here i get only 2 sms replies.. but something is wrong, ill dig into this tomorrow..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] r5723013:
can't boot after restore from the backup

I backup my whole system before installing the MotoBlur. I got some problem after installing, so I decided to restore to my previous system.

After restoring, I reboot the phone and the phone keep vibrating during the booting animation and won't boot anymore. I tried to wipe all data and reboot. The phone still stuck at the booting animation and keeps vibrating. I even reflash the sbf file by RSD Lite and still fail to boot the phone.

Any one encountered this problem before and has a solution? Thanks for help.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Silico:
You did wipe data and cache before installing right?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] r5723013:
Yes, I did wipe data and cache before installing. The installing was succeed. I configured the account and rebooted. The rebooted didn't succeed, so I restored to my previous system.

I tried to reboot after restoring, the phone keeps vibrating during the boot animation and stuck there.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] sonsonnnnn:
- Market failed to open... doesn't seem to b able to detect wi-fi

- problem with usb .. . can't open sd card on the computer

- can't get into data manager in settings
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] foreman31:
My messages and calls are working exactly as they should and wifi too, web page browsing is much faster on 3G.

USB connected fine the first time but now can`t see the sdcard, that is the only issue I have, everything else is perfect.

I was running GOT French.38
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] nsane:
Didn't mean to hit a soft spot ;-). However, I think we both agree that at present there is a big limitation; notwithstanding, I believe you are doing a spectacular job.

I wish I could try your ROMs but unfortunately the four functions I use the most on my phone are:

1) Exchange Sync

2) GPS

3) Camera

4) Word

I will wait patiently ;-)

Thanks again.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
Different people, different needs, i personally use these primary functions

1) Exchange Sync

2) GPS

3) wifi and related functions
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
I find this to be a rather serious bug!

i have now received the same sms 7 times since we discussed it earlier this night..

sms repeater is now priority to get fixed!!

and hopefully i can include a correction for internet media playback, which works as mentioned previously.

(21.08.2010 PROBLEM FIXED in 0.1a!)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] foreman31:
:) Quite funny, but weird how I never got that bug, must be something to do with the networks
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Silico:
Glad to see that the SMS has been fixed :) I can now use this as my primary ROM. Just one final thing is that their needs to be an option to enable data roaming. Especially as I am on the three network which always roams between carriers to help maintain a signal.

Just a bit of feedback as performance goes. I was pleasantly surprised that the ROM is actually very responsive.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
Maket works fine, if you enable wifi setup and add a AP to connect to.

usb is written in Post #1 as not working.

Data manager is USA only, Verizon feature, to handle a dataplan with verizon, so no need to try it out.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
I think our problem here, is that the rom is very much Verizon customized, and in USA they dont have such problems :-(

so they network roaming is simply left out of the GUI, i searched the BlurHome settings, but its not added anywhere.

Strangely though is the "data roaming" option to be enabled, i could not locate the feature affecting anything yet.

Droid2 build seems to load alot of stuff at startup, but when its actually ready and running, its quite ok. but "boot" is very annoying slow..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Silico:
Im afraid to say that I'm still having prolems with multiple SMS notifications.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] proxuser:
this is absolute best mobile os i've seen on a phone.

thanks for port it to milestone. i'd loved it ;)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kennethBen:
excuse me

why can't I install any apps?

If starting to install, my milestone could not work.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ubutnux:
Does it laggy? i watched

and it looks kinda laggy there
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] axllllllll:
thanks. everything look so cool and nice! overclock to 1000mhz ... after frenzy 0.3 this is the best 2.2 foryo to PLAY around.. thank you very much!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] DavieGee:
Well Done Dexter For The great Rom, I Don't Know If You've Seen The 2.2 Thread On The Main Page, But The Milestone Is Getting 2.2 In Q4 So Hopefully You're Kernel Issues Will Be Sorted As Soon As Theres A Leak :)

Keep Up The Good Work! Your Keeping The Milestone Alive!

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ubutnux:
same thing here. i did have app2sd partition before (ext2), is it related to this?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
if your partition is not EXT2 (but FAT32) it can easily be the problem.

as market downloader tries to set ownership permissions, which fail on a fat32 partition..

otherwise it worked fine on my sdcard with ext2.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
now i think of it.. did you remember to WIPE? if the /cache folder is full, you cannot install anything as /cache is full?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ubutnux:
yes i did wipe before restoring nandroid. i'll try to reformat my ext2 partition, see if this is a problem
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] silvacrest:
i just wanted to say that i'm really liking this rom even more so then motofrenzy and motosense (only becuz rosie reloads to often because of 256 ram, nothing can be done)

i plan to use it as a daily rom

hope future improvements make it even better

keep doing your thing dexter, i will always appreciate your efforts in keeping our milestones alive
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] princescar:
thank you, it's a great rom!

if you can include chinese in language, that will be owesome!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
small updates for those not using EXT2 sdcard partitions, the blue led stays on.

this is fixed in the attached update in post #1.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] alson041:
Hey!

I really like motoblur, it seems to work fine (the things that are functional), but I have a problem with applying the 0.1a patch. I probably just don't know how to do it. I tried to push all the files with adb and it was successful, but I still get a bunch of same SMSs :D

is there something I'm doing wrong?

Edit: ah, lol, I was doing it the wrong way. Got it working now :D Thanks for this great rom!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] alexanderi:
Before the patch, the Blue LED will be gone as soon as I connect USB to my PC. That 's one of the method to get rid of the blue LED too. With this patch, it works perfectly, I don't see the blue LED after reboot now. Yet I can connect USB as a Storage too.

Perfect ROM...only Battery drains a bit faster, probably with all the widgets which keeps pulling data.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kennethBen:
whole sdcard needs to be changed to ext2?

Or just one partition?

One part of my sdcard has been ext2 now

I used other Froyo 2.2 rom(MotoFrenzy) and it worked fine.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kennethBen:
I find one thing if I don't use the sdcard I can install app

why~~??
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
to you and others:

Removing these apps will improve battery, as they try to "talk" to initiate alot during standby(screen off)

But! if you wipe the phone this suddenly turns into a problem, so just renaming files is the best way.

Rename these 2 files in /system/app folder.

BuaContactAdapter.apk

BackupAssistanceClient.apk

but again, rename only, so in case of wipe, you can restore the "BackupAssistanceClient.apk" at least to Setup of the phone works again.

"BuaContactAdapter.apk" can actually be deleted completely.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] gaovv1981:
thanke Dexter_nlb，all your roms are fantastic.

In this blur rom,I find two bugs,in some sense they're big problems。。。

1.installing app lead to milestone break down.

my 8G sdcard have 2 partition，one is fat32，the other is ext2.

when i used another sdcard only with partition of fat32,installation became successful

2.lose connection during a phone call

when i in speaking，if i touch the dial pad button，the connection will be shut

hope you will gain more success，if you have the opportunity visit China，i will surely buy you a redbull。。。hah hah
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
not sure why it should be a problem, i have ext2 partition2 support now...

but of course partition1 should be fat32.. (that is still native to android)

did you find your correct baseband's for your area?

thats not an option :-( its like 13+hrs flight from Denmark...
