[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
it's obvious :D

The problem here is that Also I do not have the problem O.o

mmmh...

Do any of you with this bug, use custom backlights level? Have the "allow light decrease"?

Other things I have to know? Changed some settings? In build.prop??
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
I had this problem with fresh install, and then I tried to play with Auto Backlight (turning stuff on/off) but nothing happened.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] victor.prs:
This is a goooood version! Probably, the best! However, Go Launcher EX drain a LOT of battery :/ like 11%, here...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mcdevtingz:
Same it happened with clean install. You tried it in pitch black conditions
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] s0ulreaver:
Check and see maybe you have backlight issues like the rest of us.

My battery is getting drained faster than ever now...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] BlackSon:
I just changed to 100% backlight.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] m0jo:
I can confirm that the screen never seems to reall go to sleep. Its just displaying black color.

You can see it when being in a dark room looking from an angle. Youll still see some light.

No specific settings. Only thing is auto-brightness.

Hope you can look at that luca :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] alson041:
I'm also having the backlight problems. I'm quite sure it's the sreen on/off animation that causes it. Also, when turning screen on, most of the time I'm getting some lag before it actually shows the animation and turns on. The CRT animation should definitely be optional.

Edit: The lag is actually gone after using the phone for a while. Except for the backlight problem, I think this is the best rom for our phone available yet. Thanks luca for spending your time for us.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] s0ulreaver:
I tried with "allow light decrease on/off" and "light sensor filter" off (this last one is on by default) but it made no difference

No changed build.prop here, no custom backlights either.

Best way to see the bug is in complete dark, mostly when looked in diagonal over the screen.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
if anyone have it can he try to switch to the 2.8.0 services.jar and libsurfaceflinger.so? (those are the only files touched for CTR anim)

I have tried in a completely black room (no light!) and I do not have any screen dim...it shuts off well... and do not have lags on On....

If I cannot locate the iussue and someone can confirm that with 2.8.0 files the iussue are gone, then I'll release an emergency fix to remove CTR animation!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] LuigiC6:
Same thing here. It never really turns off. You have to look into it on an angle. It's definitely noticeable.

Also want to add that battery life is great, even with this bug. Can't wait for it to be fixed :P
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Yeah this version is great overall, but this backlight bug is killing it :( I knew ctr animation is bad idea :P text chooser ftw!!! XD

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] victor.prs:
I'm having this backlight issue too

But the Go Launcher has also a huge drain! Be aware of that!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] fzelle:
I had go launcher on 2,8 before and i don,t see any batterie drain.

I also don't have the backlight problem.

Maybe it is a theme thing!?!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vangogogo:
thank you!!!!!!!you are genius!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] PhoenixNghi:
I've just replaced those 2 files and the backlightbug was gone.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] trance-maniac:
I also have the bug... I thought not, but in plain dark backlight is clearly on :-(

Too bad cause I love this CTR animation thing ;-)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Mr Coffee:
Fast but Tweetdeck always force close!!!!!! Need to back to 2.8.0b until fix.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] LuigiC6:
Please try to fix this ASAP Luca! I love your ROM, its brilliant!!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] aj.guyver:
I found an issue of 2.9.0. my phone will restart everytime I install an app from market or local. Does anyone encounter this issue? Thanks!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Attached is a flashable zip file containing the two files from Froyomod 2.8.0 to remove CRT effects. Just flash using AOR.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] puffo81:
Faster than light! =)

I love that animation too, but BB (backlight bug =) is too heavy, it drains 35% of battery overnight, while in 2.8 only 3%..

btw, apart of this bug, this ROM is in my opinion again the best out there: everything is really smooth, no lag, no bug or reboot for now.. great work as usual!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
And if I want to install GB theme (modded one) I can apply this without problems, right?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Joolee:
My "9292ov" application constantly force closes. Already tried reinstall, clear data, move to phone/sd and disabling compatibility mode.

I'm thinking of reverting to 2.8 if no one can fix it. :( I really like this version :(

Furthermore: cropped images get really blurry, I've tried cropping it with Gallery3D and also tried using Launcher Pro for wallpaper instead of Go Launcher but the result of cropping is still blurry while zooming in to the picture produces a nice clear image.

Does anyone know what application does the cropping?

Only two bugs I could find, don't have the Backlight Bug afaik.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] inkognito3:
Well for me overnight drain is just 10% (10 hours)

And silesh thanks for the fix om waiting for honey theme ;)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] gpw11:
This rom has really improved since I last tried it - great job! Sadly, I have the backlight bug as well....shame because I love the CRT animation.

Also, I can't seem to find the option to change notification lights/2d-3d gallery anymore. Have those been removed or am I thinking about another rom entirely?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
You have zip files to choose between launchers, galleries, cameras and music players in the OP. Just flash them using AOR.

I would like to see the option to change not.lights too :) like in cm7.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] puffo81:
A little "bug" I've found: 2D gallery is far slower than in 2.8! but not a big problem..

I've set read ahead to 3072 (in this ROM is 128 by default), but without big improvement..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] lordfreyr:
Can you make the FMExtras to be saved to the /data partition and add a keyboard layout changer? After an update they have to be always re-set, and I always forgot many of them.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Quentin himself:
Hi all,

I use FM since at least the 2.6.0 version and I'm so happy using it. Smooth, fast, constant upgrade, I just love lucas' work. It's amazing! It's a new life for my milestone and I'm so excited each time lucas post a new version of his rom!

Concerning this actual version (2.9.0), I'm just loving the TV effect, but unfortunately there is a bug said before : the screen never goes out (thx to Google Translate... or not ?) I just like lucas' work, but I'm afraid the screen never shutted down drain the battery. I hope community will say to me that's not a problem or lucas will post a bugfix?

What happened with icons in the notifications' bar (?), they are smallest than in the others versions and I'm sad lol. Is this "bug" because of the GB theme by sileshn? Oh and thx to him too for his work! His theme just persuade me to use all day FM!

I'm sorry for my poor english, I'm a french student. I accept (and i would like have) critics about my language, correct me!

Thx to you, lucas and sileshn (and the entire community too!) for your great works!

Quentin
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
I've just removed CRT Animation using sileshn's attachment, backlight is gone and I'm so happy now :D. Best ROM 4 Milestone ever!

@Quentin your english is fine :) some grammar errors but can be understood hehe ^^

@puffo81 try Quickpic from the Market.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Yes, only issue would be that clock color needs to be changed to white using froyomod extra settings. I dont know if the theme changed the color to white automatically because i didn't try it out on my milestone.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] oxytw:
where can i find Launcher 2D without automatic rotation
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
That's ok. CTR animation is ok, but in GO launcher there is a TV animation when opening and closing the app drawer. That's cool enough for me :).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] TheSgrash:
this afternoon i'll install this rom (and your gb theme)... if i will have backlight problem i flash the other zip for the fix... will this last zip change my theme or it remain GB??
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Just flash GB, than the zip. Theme will remain the same :) I'm just using it it's awesome.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] puffo81:
I've tried yet, but same result. Even because image viewer in FM is based on Quickpic.. don't you have it? Is gallery fast as in 2.8 for you?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Idk, I don't have many pics right now, but quickpic has better options and looks nicer. In FM's gallery I have 10 folders, half of them are showing thumbnails but actually are empty. In quickpic I have 3 folders and they are full. So quickpic is better.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
Ok so the bug is because of CTR tv animations :-( ç____ç xD

Ok i'll try to provide for today (at max for tomorrow) a 2.9.1 with reverted CTR animations, and a pack with them for whoever does not have the bug! (like me xD)

Now....Silly question... This is a problem similar to what happened on HD2 section, where we discovered there was 2 different touch panels and only one of them is optimized, the other had constant bugs...

so...

I know there are 2 milkestone versions, one with the flat keyboard and one with the keys rounded (my english is bad I dunno how to explain LOL xD) so

WHO HAVE THE BUG WHAT TYPE OF KEYBOARD HAVE???

@sileshn

thx for the quick pack! I'll provide a new one, cause using 2.8.0 services.jar will remove all the power widget work i've done! and some other opimizations!

I'll revert the PowerManager Services in the services.jar and prvide a pack with new one and old surfaceflinger! (nd obv a one to ON the animations!)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] puffo81:
I've understood what yuo mean.. My MS has rounded buttons!

EDIT: and I have the bug
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Flat keyboard. Never heard for rounded one.

I have this one afaik (this is from google, not mine pic)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Yes, i guessed so. I was about to port the HC theme. If possible, send me the services.jar file alone so that i can use it for the theme rather than downloading the whole rom again. I can take the libsurfaceflinger.so from the 2.8.0 rom which i have.

In the meantime i'll make the HC theme with the 2.9.0 services.jar file for people who are not having problems with CRT animations.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
@N3N00

yes :P

One is this way:

like you have I image, and another is like this:

Like I have!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] puffo81:
Can't see from that pic! Flat keyboard is meant as that every key is completely flat, while rounded keyboard has the keys that in the middle are upper than in the edges.. difficult to explain in english! =)

btw just pass your finger over it, if you feel like glass, it's the flat keyboard, if you feel like a massage, it's the rounded one!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Joolee:
2D gallery has to make thumbnails. That takes a while. When they're all generated, it will be a lot faster.

I got rounded buttons as far as i know BUT! I know I've read somewhere that some keyboards with flat buttons will round when your phone gets older.

I don't experience the bug btw.

Perhaps the same people that experience are the same that also experience the DSI hangs.

Does someone know anything about the blurry crop results and fc-ing apps that ran fine on the previous version?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Flat if flat, round is like convex lens.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] crankm:
i have rounded keyboard and have no bug
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
I have a flat one then. But you have rounded - no backlight, puffo81 has rounded - backlight... so it's weird.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] inkognito3:
Also rounded or puffy ones :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] fzelle:
Rounded one and no light bug.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mcdevtingz:
Rounded and I have back light tingzz
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
mmmh thats weird...

ok i'm right now reverting the changes for CTR anim! I'll release the 2.9.1 WITHOUT animations, and a package to ENABLE OR re-DISABLE animations!

probably this evening
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] dagonias:
English:

Good morning staff

Someone with the same problem I described above? I'm the rom since yesterday and honestly have never seen my milestone so nice and fast. But these issues really bring me back to 2.8.

Still not noticed the problem with the backlight. My miles has the flat keyboard ...

In my update I did not fullwipe, I believe it is not necessary.

Wait a hint of noble peers.

Hugs everyone.

Portuguese:

Bom dia pessoal,

Alguem com o mesmo problema que eu descrevi acima? Estou com a rom desde ontem e sinceramente nunca vi meu milestone tão agradavel e rapido. Mas esses problemas realmente vao me fazer voltar para a 2.8.

Ainda nao observei o problema com o backlight. O meu miles tem o teclado plano...

Na minha atualização eu nao fiz o fullwipe, acredito que nao seja necessário.

Aguardo alguma dica dos nobres colegas.

Abraços todos.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
will it be enough to replace services.jar and libsurfaceflinger.so from 2.9.0 with the ones from 2.9.1 then?

havent flashed 2.9 but already prepared the update.zip for flahsing (some custom stuff)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
HC theme

Here is the HC theme. This is for people on 2.9.0 having no backlight problems. Please note that i have not checked it on my milestone. If you find problems, let me know.

The clock/date/notification colour changes have been made, but if you still have black clock/date/notification, please use Froyomod extras to change them.

Screenshots are available somewhere on this thread.

http://mir.cr/OK8WRDVQ
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] puffo81:
At this point, I think that the bug isn't related to the hardware, or at least not concerning the keyboard!

Btw after updated with Sileshn's patch, everything works fine, no huge battery draining. And i can live even without animation. so for me now, the winner is

The FroyoMOD 2.9!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] lordfreyr:
I have the bug and the keyboard is a rounded one.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] deadf1sh:
Flat Keyboard, first batch (i guess)

I have the bug and i applied the rom from a fresh stock rom 2.2.1, it didn't happenned at first but after 2 or 3 reboots.

Also i don't have any lockscreen anymore!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Joolee:
I also have a first batch phone (I did a preorder so I think i got a first batch) and don't have the bug.

It's not that the bug is caused by the keyboard but it could've helped to identify the batches with a problem.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
Obviously you'll apply the future "CTR-OFF.zip" i'll release and all will be ok :D

I'm going to release it on a new rom so that anyone that dowloads it will not have FOR SURE the bug!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] inkognito3:
Thanks waiting luca to upload so u can do fixed theme with no anime rom ;)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Revolution theme

My last theme for 2.9.0. It includes only framework files, no apps.

http://mir.cr/CIWKI6PD

For people on my theme, i will let you know what to do after Luca releases his patches.

@Luca

: If possible and willing, update themes section with mine, so users who need them need not search.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] silencer51:
Luca, it would be great if you could also release a patch for us FM users with 2.9.0 and the backlight problem, so we dont have to reflash 2.9.1 and have to set it up all over again. :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] puffo81:
It has been released yet by Sileshn.. take a look 2 pages back!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Quentin himself:
I've a rounded one and the backlight problem!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] PhoenixNghi:
+1 here

này thì 10 cha rác tơ
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Joolee:
The 2.9.1 package to "re-disable" the animation could also be used when Luca uploads it. I think that would be preferable because the package sileshn uploaded is based on FroyoMod 2.8. (You can flash them over each other, so you can first do the sileshn and later the Luca version)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mblaster4711:
I have the rounded Keboard and no Backlight Bug.

But My Tracks wont run always FC, it worked in 2.7.0 and 2.8.0 a b c. Any suggests?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] LuigiC6:
Odd... anyone else notice that applying sileshn's update doesn't fix the backlight problem?

Edit: I had to re-apply the update after applying GB theme. All is good :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] deadf1sh:
Worked for me, but i still don't have any lockscreen, i don't see an option to activate it, i'm good for another install i think...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Joolee:
Lockscreen is the "lock" icon in the Samsung shutcut bar thingy.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] szacuken:
Hello luca! :D

I`m from Poland and i Lead a topic in http://forum.android.com.pl/f115/thefroyomod-v2-9-0-by-89luca89-76971/ about your rom :) I`m realy happy with the latest version of your rom- is very fast and stable but I and several others of our forums also have a problem with backlight. Me too- i have got rounded Keboard and backlight bug. I hope you manage to fix this because this CTR animation is beautiful :D

Good Luck :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] inkognito3:
I have to report a bug...after installing HC and re-applying fix when I push the hardware butten to change the sound louder or quite it changes the sound but line that indicates lower or higher sound its allways full
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
I'll look into it tomorrow.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] deadf1sh:
Thank you but it does nothing, i come from CM7 and "might" have restored some parameters with Titanium from that CM7, that may be my problem.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] inkognito3:
Othere bug : I have 1% bat index ur theme doesn't have 987654321%
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Meaning?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] inkognito3:
When bat is at 9 % indicator at ur theme is 10% when it hits 5 or 4 indicator is at 0%
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] calcpereira:
Hi guys, firstly tks Luca for your great work!

Can someone tell me if it is necessary do a full wipe to upgrade from 2.8.0 to 2.9.0?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
No, only wipe cache and dalvik.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] calcpereira:
Thanks for the quick reply brotha!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Svid:
Dear luca:

Will you update your Sense theme to fit 2.9.0?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
only when resolved this backlight major bug lol xD

CAN ANYONE TEST THIS PACKAGE FIX??

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/25106916/FIX_BACKLIGHT.zip

mirror:

http://www.4shared.com/file/sg_C3w4J/FIX_BACKLIGHT.html

they are the files for reverting CTR animation, IF YOU HAVE BACKLIGHT PROBLEM SEE IF WORKS AND LET ME KNOW!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Fixed, but now sileshn (or somebody else) has to fix the power widget in GB theme.

Background is bigger than before, icons don't fit.

Edit: nvm, it's ok with 5 icons (I forgot for the changes in 2.9)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] dontedesco:
Luca,

Having the backlight issue, applied your zipfile from recovery, then wiped cache+davlik, still having the issue; did I miss a step?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] andrelozer:
I aplied the fix and the backlight bug is gone, and I didn't wipe cache or dalvik.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Me neither, I didn't wipe.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
thanks!

I need much more feedback so I'll know and localize the problem! :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Flash the new zip that Luca provided over the theme and your problems should be gone. If not wait for another 10 hours till I take a look.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] szacuken:
I flashed 2.9.0 again (with full wipe), aplied the fix and backlight bug is gone too :) But i dont have crt animation now.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] inkognito3:
Thanks bro
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Backlight issue is associated with CRT animations. So to get the issue solved you need to remove the CRT animation effects.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] inkognito3:
Still the bugs are here after fix
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Was the backlight fixed with sileshn's zip?

Don't wipe caches after you apply zip.

Edit: oh you mean bugs in the theme...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
@WHOEVER HAS THE PROBLEM EVEN AFTER THE FIX!

http://www.4shared.com/file/Rjvymeh5/BACKIGHT_FIXv2.html

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/25106916/BACKIGHT_FIXv2.zip

I tried to see if I can fix the bug BUT with CTR ANIMATIONS ENABLED!

who wants to help me?? xD

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/25106916/CTR-ON_BACKLIGHTFIX.zip

More feedback=faster results xD

I'm sorry to ask to all of you to test...the problem is that I do not have the bug...so I cannot test O.o

EDIT:

How is possible? O.o i have more than 20.000 downloads, and half of that are from vietnam O.o older release went to like 10,000 downloads in a month or like that (at max frfom 7000 to 8000) now 20.000 in one day O.o is it fake or really in vietnam the rom is appreciated?? (asking for real to vietnamite users! ;D) cause I cannot believe it xD xD
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] inkognito3:
In the theme ...I will wait for 2.9.1 and silesh new themes...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] andrelozer:
Nope. The bug is back.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
you mean with the CTR-ON pack?

or with the BACKLIGHTFIXv2?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] andrelozer:
The fix with animations on didn't work, but both v1 and v2 fix with animations off worked for me.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] s0ulreaver:
sileshn's fix worked for me, can't test the others right now as I'm on the road.

something else happened that I reported before: the phone rang but I couldn't answer. the screen was on but it didn't respond to slide.

I tried At least 10 times sliding the finger. I even slide the keyboard out. nothing.

after the call went unanswered I was able to unlock it and worked fine.

what's going on? anyone else?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] andrelozer:
Since 2.8.0 I don't have this kind of issue. I mean, on 2.7.0 I still had this problem, but on 2.8.0 it was gone, but I didn't receive many calls after updating to 2.9.0, so I can't really say if this bug is back.

Anyway, turning the screen off and on again works for me.
