After trying Cronos GB for some days, attracted by Gtalk with video support, I came back to FM.

Cronos is really outstanding to be a GB based ROM, but isn't speedy and multitask-friendly as FM!

Btw, after reading all these posts, I was little afraid, since many of you reported many bugs. Personally, after a full wipe (I kept just the EXT2 partition), 2.9.1 works perfectly, no WIFI issue, no backlight issue, everything is fine, and it's faster than light!

My market is where it has to be, so again, greetings to Luca!

Anyone of you has been able to make Gtalk 1.3 work with Froyo?

Ah, other thing!

Battery life seems very good!!!

But why read ahead is set only to 4kb? Is there any reason?

I set it to 2048 and it looks like better!

Try talk 1.3 installer from market. I dont think it works on Froyo, but worth a try.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] puffo81:
Thank you but can't find it.. I think it's only for 2.3.4!

I tried using the APK extracted from the GB package, but it doesn't work.. :'-(

I can confirm the following worked to fix wifi for me, but it requires a wipe so if you have a lot of apps and configuration you might want to try going via 2.8.0 and upgrading.

What worked for me:

- Install wifi+dsi fixes

- Wipe data/cache/dalvik cache.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] puffo81:
I said a lie: after looking at the display in a complete dark environment, I noticed that backlight bug is still here..

Downloading the patch!

Battery drain with GPS

- sorry, doublepost -
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] petersteier:
Battery drain with GPS

This reminds me of http://www.android-hilfe.de/root-ha...-der-grosse-akku-drain-thread.html#post670958

Summarizing: In G.O.T. 2.2.1, many conditions led to loss of deep sleep:

WiFi on

Disconnect from charger while display off

A GPS fix, until the GPS was disabled

If I read the descriptions above, the third point and maybe the second point are occuring for us now also. I checked with CPU Spy, and can confirm the GPS bug. The other two do not show up (v2.9.1 with DSI fix 2.2). Without deep sleep, the battery will be drained in some 10 hours (even at 125 MHz, vsel 28:D).

I have reactivated an old workaround using Tasker to switch on GPS only while the Navigation Apps are running.

I use Tasker anyways to switch off WiFi if the screen goes off for more than one minute, and not connected to the charger. WiFi will drain the battery also in a few hours, even if everything works. Additionally, I toggle 2G/3G when the screen is off.

I can go like that with my typical usage for ~2 days, and I have not seen a large difference between different ROMs. You probably see only differences due to overclock settings, screen dimming levels, and (often) deep sleep bugs (IMHO).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mblaster4711:
+1

With a fresh install (with injected Wifi+DsiFix2.2 in lucas 2.9.1-update.zip):

- Wifi scan and log in new Neetworks works :)

- reboots when using wifi :(

- no reboots when using mobile-network 2G + 3G :)

- deepsleep only with wifi + gps switched off :(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] daria55:
You all should send luca logs of the problems instead of posting them here, so he can fix them. If he does not have the problem, he cannot work on it without a logfile.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] scholbert:
sleeping issues????

Yeah i agree. I'm already collecting logs :D

Right now i started to tweak latest FM2.9.1 and using a customized setup to get best battery life at reasonable performance.

So some things were removed and some (personally) useful stuff was added.

During this process i made a lot of diffs from the system startup files between different distributions, to get an idea of the evolutionary adds and tweaks.

I'm in testing with my modified FM2.9.1 at the moment and it seems, that there are still some issues with deep sleep.

While testing with 2.8b i got aware of this issue, now with 2.9.1 it seems still there.

After reboot the problem is gone and everything is sleeping nicely. Need further investigation though :rolleyes:

FYI, im am using latest CPU spy from the market.

Anyone with FM2.7 realized problems entering deep sleep?

Would be also very helpful if some users with standard FM2.9.1 could report if they examine CPU not entering deep sleep mode.

I will report if i got something useful out of it.

What do you think about the kernel and scheduler tweaks used in the latest release?

Any comments would be appreciated!

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] scholbert:
Had been already posted here... search ;)

BTW, some news about deep sleep issues...

First of all it does not seem to be wifi or gps related (at least on my device).

Not sure about all this kernel tweaking to gain performance.

So i decided to tweak some of the init files again:

- not using dsifix and qtouch modules right now (just to make sure it's not related to these modules)

- disabled noop scheduler for I/O access (not sure if this had anything to do with it, but i had multiple wake-ups during the night)

- removed packet buffer kernel tweaks (might save some kernel memory)

I don't know if it's temporarily, but my deep sleep issue are completely gone.

If someone is interested i'll do some further reports about my findings.

Best regards,

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] indiacam:
Sorry i am confused. I have updated with luca's dis+ wifi2.2 fix and I have no problem right now.

But what this sileshn's wifi fix? is it same or different than luca;s fix. What else it does, other than luca's fix? Should I update this too?:confused:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] grimpy:
Its the same fix just made available in a updateable zip file for ease of applying it
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] xenosapien213:
to be honest, i think that honeycomb theme looks like crap.

(i mean the one sileshn linked to, not his own - which look amazing, at least the last one i installed (for 2.7.0))

look at the REAL honeycomb, it´s pretty minimalistic, not EVERYTHING in there has the "Rings" optics and sparkles and glows everywhere...

this looks pretty much like someone stacked THREE layers of honeycomb on top of each other ^^
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Black-Blue-Grey-White... that's what it's meant to be. Personally I like the theme he linked. If I won't like something in it, I'll just take .png from HCv3 and replace. :)

Great rom,

But had some screen freezes. Nothing can help, even shift+alt+del wont work. Phone (the screen and everything) is freezed and getting hot for a couple of minutes then it reboots to M logo.

How can I make a logcat in the terminal which writes a file on the sdcard in the real time. I mean the command in terminal. I want to post a logcat for luca or nadlabak. I feel its related with dsi. I have 2.2v one from nadlabak applied. Still it is kinda irritating issue. I have this 1-3 times a day, then couple of days of break and once again etc. It happens on wifi wpa-psk (TKIP)

Beside this (on miui had the same, but reboots were to miui logo and slightly less frequent) its great rom with sileshn's themes (brilliant!)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Sörnäinen:
Two screen freezes here yesterday, too. Everything worked absolutely fine, but yesterday two times freeze, on 3G, while typing. Both times.

Hm. Once in the browser, once in Facebook chat.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] daria55:
do you have the dsi fix v2 applied? because i did that and i have 1 or 2 freezes ocasionaly and i think it didn't happen before i applied the dsi fix v2. also i notive sometimes that the battery drops 10-20% in one moment. but that happend before too.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Sörnäinen:
Yes, that´s applied on my phone. Maybe it has some setbacks. :O
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] daria55:
I'm also thinking that this dsi fix v2 is causing battery draining on my phone. this is highly subjective, but i think my battery drains faster than before i applied it...

Ok, update to 2.9.1 helped battery life a bit but still not as good as 2.8.

Also the market crashes to reboot once in a while when installing apps.

But nevertheless a great ROM which is much better than stock and helps my old pal Milestone catching up to actual phones!!!

I found an other LED bug. When alarm rings, LED stays on and i don't notice it in former versions.

With 800ULV and playing RainyDay2 or JewelsLink, sometimes the phone freezes.

BTW, Battery drains fast even with dsi v2.2 but i will calibrate it.

THANK YOU. I miss so much GB Pointer!

EDIT: LED bugs was when my phone was under 2.9.0. I just do the update and LED blinks when receiving message :D No more bug for alarm!

moving apps from /system/app to /data/app

Hi

Does anybody know if it's possible to move apps from system/app to /data/app without getting Problems ? This may be a way to get more free device memory, if the apps are placed on sd ?

If this would be possible for at least some of the apps stored in the system/app folder it would be very nice to move as much as possible...

I apply your 2.9.1 update and in the same time the wifi+dsi fix 2.2. AWESOME ! LED works again but bad news... Screen never goes in deepsleep again.

I apply a FIX_BACKLIGHT but now, LED doesn't blink anymore :(

And i notice a bad bug too, in your keyboard. When touching the word in order to correct it, and selecting the word i want, it put the selected word at cursor place. Therefore, i have the beginning of unwanted word before the cursor, the selected word and after the rest of the unwanted word.

Hello Luca!

Thank you for a such useful mod! Tried to install stock 2.2, then FroyoMod.

All i need is here!! Sleep mode is absolutely perfect also.

I also have this problem. When i select "Install Recovery at Boot" only reapplying update (FroyoMod again) helps.

And one more question. Do we still have to apply update.zip containing Androidiani each time to boot into recovery? (My bootloader ver. is 90.73) Also flashed this vulnerable recovery: android.doshaska.net/rootable

And one more. Time for holding Home button for recent apps list a bit too long.

Thanks again! Waiting for new version :)
