i do not understand with the battery problems.

try not to use cyanogen mod settings -> show battery percentage

it is very unstable and eats up more battery than its worth showing. This also happens in my nexus one and i can easily lose 20% in 3-4 hours of travelling around in standby mode. With the indicator off, I only lose 3-4% in standby.

If you need accurate figures, enter setcpu widget-> info instead, and then compare in settings-> about phone -> battery use. Learn to trust the battery bar without needing the digits :)

Always use setcpu -> profiles -> when screen off min/max 250mhz, priority 100% on-demand.

certain apps like the default browser, together with loaded flash content might also eat battery when minimised. Use a quality custom browser like Dolphin HD, press and hold the back key and it will fully close the program and also clears cache and history.

Yes, I'm having the same problem with music playback as well.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] proxuser:
this rom is cool. its fast and everything works.

but i think so many restart make it unusable. it restart if i want look youtube videos, opening web pages and some time restarts itself. its not really a cm port.

one of sense roms are so much better with launcher pro.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] moobe:
Hi there,

I have the 0.02-10.10.02 right now, and I'd like to give the 0.02-10.10.06 a try, so should I wipe my phone, then flash the new one with the google apps as well, or I can just flash the new version without wiping?

thank you
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] okorn_:
Just apply the update via OR

anyway...do a nandroid backup in case of having any problem

What would make it more real CM port according to you? I'm open for ideas.

You can see exactly how it is build and you can also compile it for yourself, all the used sources are available:

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] SkopiX:
Hi, i flashed newest rom from you, all was fine, but after sucess flashing and reboot system, phone can't start, i can only see Moto logo and after that it's restarting again and again... sometimes it stuck on Moto logo what i can do??

//in my original language:

ahoj, flashoval sem rom (a ne jednu) vse vypadalo v poradku, open recovery nacetlo vse jak melo, jenze: pokazde kdyz chci foun spustit, tak se to dokola restartovava na logu Motoroly, nebo se to na nem natvrdo sekne... poradte prosim, uz nevim co delat...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] haksam:
like what colors?

i use cyan for sms, red for miss calls, green for gmail

blue, purple and orange works as well.

maybe its your phone :D

did you really,really,really,really,really,really read the instructions? you should be on the latest Motorola firmware update 2.36/2.38 b4 flashing any custom roms.

wipe dalvik, cache and factory reset using open recovery made for cm 6

update cm 6 zip, then google apps zip and reboot again (there should be 2 reboots)

hey no probs, thanks for the feedback. I was beginning to think no one listens to what i write lol
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zrima167:
Sorry, after trying it again I stand corrected. Those that you have written do work, but some do not (white, pink, light blue).

Still have to try your battery tip, hopefully it will work ;)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Quintasan:
I understand you very well because I have my hands full just going trough Ubuntu's bug tracker.

I have filled a bug report describing the issue. Thanks for your hard work :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] haksam:
yeah unfortunately i have not tested those colors on my milestone (on n1 works fine). Light blue on n1 is very purplish (cyan looks like a much better light blue). I was mistaken when I said purple works, it was actually light blue, theres no purple in the list lol. Did you not notice a purplish light on the led when using androidiani recovery? it works on milestone, well at least on recovery, not too sure on cm 6 settings sorry.

now im testing cronos rom, which magically appeared within this thread lol

should be returning to cm 6 soon because i will miss the lockscreen music player and custom led color notifications.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kholk:
Nadlabak, I've got an idea. If it works Milestone will have a score of 32MFLOPS like other Android devices.

I have installation question...

when flashed 0.01c - (nandroid image)

then install all "update-signed.zip" or only the last (07.10.2010 0.02-10.10.07) ?

I now use this Fast-Light-Rom, i want to install cm6 and need to do nandroid restore of 0.01c.

thanks.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] v0n:
As others mentioned, current version 07.10.2010 is quite flakey. I had time to test the reboot and battery consumption issue this weekend, and the outcome, at least for me, is quite surprising - installed from new, with factory reset and full wipe, without any additional software active (ie no additional overclocks, task managers, etc etc) the rom was absolutely stable for 26 hours when used around my home. Battery usage dropped by 20% in that time. The moment I jumped into my car to drive around for few miles, in just three hours I had two (confirmed) reboots in my belt holster and one reboot in my hand while walking across parking lot, I swiped the lock, I could see data icon in task bar change from "H" to "G" then darkness and boot screen.

So basically - by the time I returned home, all together 4.5 hours after leaving home with 80% of battery left and without using it even once for phone calls, texts or browsing (I barely woke it up three times), I'm looking at the screen with 40% of battery left and after 3 spontaneous reboots.

It is now sat on my desk, happy and stable, 2 hours 43 minutes since last reboot.

It would seem to me that either current rom is either very, very unhappy switching between masts or data carriers, or the automatic data toggle bundled is just not happy bunny when the phone travels. Anyone else ready to test and confirm/deny rom stability in travel/movement with and without auto data toggle widget enabled?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] okorn_:
You dont have to install all the update-signed.zip...its okey with the last one.

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] segelfreund:
Hi haksam,

i don´t used the cyanogen settings of the battery.

I´m only used BatteryLeft and Battery Life.

Possible these apps are the problem.

Sorry for my bad english, but i´m german

segelfreund from Android-Hilfe.de
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] haksam:
uninstall any third party apps for battery meter. Measure your results from setcpu->info and android settings->about phone->battery use.

remember to use profiles, 250mhz max on screen off.

here is what i got,

*corrected*

battery use -> 1day 7h (31 hours)

battery level from setcpu -> 90% (this is not accurate and is in the range between 81%-90%)

highest possible average = 0.6% per hour

lowest possible average = 0.32% per hour

median = 0.45% per hour

max possible stand by time per 100% battery charge = 220 hours (9 days)

phone idle on GSM no data and wifi off,

full time stationary on the same desk,

every 24h, 9h goes to automatic airplane mode.

Ok, using the latest build I've noticed that holding the search button won't bring up voice search. I've also noticed that there aren't options for "search" in settings so I can't clear history or tell it to stop searching my contacts or etc...

nvm, got both things working now..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Try4Ce:
Dont worry guys. Official FroYo ROM for the Milestone has been leaked to G.O.T. which are working on it right now.

Everything goes very smooth right now. Nadlabak is working with G.O.T. to get us a real sweet release with CM directly included :D

There wont be any updates for CM with "emulated" kernel i guess, wont make sense since official Kernel is in Nadlabaks Hands.

GO GO yea GO GO! ^^
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
Just so people dont misunderstand what the leak is about..

its still an official motorola 2.2 froyo kernel, with no Cyanogen hacks at all, so it will not be linked on any CM site as being a customized kernel on motorola milestone. so all the checks and locked bootloader is still in place.

but the result will be a cm6 edition closer to the original cm releases, but still only with official kernels with whatever defects it comes with.

but of course good news.. better very,very late, than never at all..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] davioo:
Sorry to be posting what seems to be such a common question.. but I can't get this thing to WORK!

I've successfully got OpenRecovery working (The one made specifically for Milestones), and I have the 6/10/10 update in the updates folder of Open Recovery. Before applying the update, I cleared the caches / factory reset etc.. and then when I apply the update I see the screen with the exclamation point, and nothing happens. I end up seeing the cycling Motorola logo, and so I have to restore my nandroid backup again..

I've tried searching through this thread and nothing quite seems to work.

Telus RIL is for north american milestones. You should be able to get signal (and being able to make calls) right off the box with this rom. If you are just unable to make data connection, your problem is likely APN settings not applied correctly.

Why does my phone run so hot with this rom?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Setsuna666:
It might be the overclocking.

You can use setcpu to program an automatic down-clocking when the screen is off and adjust the cpu frequency on-demand.

Or if you don't want to buy setcpu, you can edit the overclocking file (/system/etc/init.d/10overclock) to set the default frequency.

Edit the following lines in /system/etc/init.d/10overclock:

Change this line

echo 900000 > /proc/overclock/max_rate

to

echo 550000 > /proc/overclock/max_rate

Change this line

echo 60 > /proc/overclock/max_vsel

to

echo 56 > /proc/overclock/max_vsel

Hi

Once or twice a day , my phone decide to pretend that it is connected to mobile network. But it's not connected. I have "3G" or "H" icon, everything look ok but i stop to get any sms and my number is "unreachable".

We give more report on this rom soon..:D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] davioo:
Thanks alot to the developers and everyone in this thread for finally getting this ROM running on my Telus Milestone. The only complaints I have are:

-Camera App is unstable, and F/C after taking a picture now

-Phone doesn't properly go to sleep, so it doesn't allow the SetCPU profile to drop it to 125Mhz

-Media playback (music/videos) is shoddy, and doesn't work. I think this may have been fixed in the 10/10/10 update --> Probably will flash it later to try out.

I had it running at 1GHz initially, and this ROM is superfast! With LauncherPro, it flies. Also tried out 750 and 900Mhz as the max speeds, and those seem sufficient as well, at least until the idle/sleep problem is solved.

Loving the new Froyo Features, specifically the new mail app, APP2SD, gallery, and the newfound speed (JIT/CM6?). :D

You have to install Google Apps (for HDPI devices): http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version#Google_Apps
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] haksam:
Google apps are proprietary software to Google alone.

most custom ROMS won't have it packaged together.

always keep this in mind for future custom ROM moddings.

a successful flash with google apps will always begin with the "touch the android to begin" setup on first boot.

Hey all,

I'm pretty new to all this, but I've successfully flashed the latest version of this ROM to my Canadian Telus Milestone, applied the Telus RIL and the google apps, it all seems to work quite well, except for one thing. It reboots when I plug it in to my computer. I have the USB drivers installed on the computer, my previous rooted stock android 2.1 update1 worked fine with my PC.

The computer seems to recognise it, then it reboots (the milestone) and I can't connect to it on the PC. Also, my Battstatt widget stops working, and is no longer available to add in the widgets menu until I remove it and reinstall it. Really wierd.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance for the help!

Hi, been using the latest version now for 24 hours and it's working really great.

theres your problem printed in front of you.

try this ,

after downloading the file, double click on the zip to see if it allows you to view the contents. if it says corrupted zip file, re-download again.

again, go recovery, wipe cache, dalvik and reset to factory,

update cm 6 zip, then immediately update gapps zip

reboot.

phone should force you to reboot another time.

P.S. Kudos also to Cyanogen!!!!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] v0n:
I can confirm this. At least 2-3 times a day calls and texts don't go through, callers are diverted straight to voicemail, phone is reacting normally, data connection appears to be ok, but phone is not registered with network. I'm with t-mobile, so when I move far enough from location to be on different mast, the phone regains connectivity and I actually get text message that someone tried to call me and/or left voicemail message.

Additionally, at least once since 11 Oct update I had glitch where upon someone calling the phone rebooted on my desk before it could even vibrate or ring (maybe wake from idle issue?) and yesterday I had weird GPS glitch - in the middle of journey with google navigation phone lost satellite signal, then 2 miles later just rebooted.

Further issues:

90% of time it doesn't look like the phone is actually sleeping properly, with battery usage being to high for regular sleep mode and 2G only enabled. Plus 250Mhz sleep profile doesn't seem to trigger in SetCPU. I still can't shake the feeling it has to do with something like constant network searches - things tend to improve if I enable 2G, then disable data completely, otherwise it looks like whatever it's doing with screen off, is just causing relative but constant high load in uptime instead of sleeping. Will need to start loging to provide more details.

Since last update my phone often thinks it's docked and when woken from pocket or holster it switches to car mode or dock clock mode.

I'm sorry for the really dumb questions but I have three of them.

First is I can't get open recovery to open anymore. It was working great but stopped today

Second is my GPS also stopped working when I noticed open recovery stopped working

And thirdly, Email constantly crashes on me. How can I uninstall it?

Would it be easier to reflash my home and install the ROM? I also read that some of these issues may be caused because of SD isn't partitioned. Any suggestions there?
