email over 2g not woking

I recently installed The FroyoMOD v2.5.0 on my milestone, and i am quite happy with it. However, email syncing via 2G (Eplus Germany, no 3g available here in the countryside) does not work , neither using the google mail app, nor via k9mail. Once i enable wifi, everything works.

The funny thing is, the browser works via 2G, and i can even read my Mail that way.

Any hints?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Rhaegar:
There's a new update which I could install now, finally.

am new with this ROM and my 1st impression is FAST...

am previously using CM6.1, am looking for this rom to find out is this rom can run apps2ext... does anyone can help me how to run apps2ext on my gorgeous Miley...

Thanks
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Ralf_g60:
The last past days I am having a lot of reboots (M logo)

Not while phone is sleeping, but when using browser, writing a text message, using some other apps...

Anyone else?

Overclock left the way it was in this rom.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vlad.obada:
I want to begin by apologizing if this question has been asked before - there are just too many pages of topic to go trough them.

I`ve been using this ROM for almost 2 weeks now, and I really love the combination of speed + stability.

But, I have one big issue - which so far I wasn`t able to solve. What I`m referring to is the GPS performance which is, frankly, mediocre at best.

I have tried in various conditions (outside, inside, AGPS / GPS, mooving car, train, standing still in the middle of the park on a clear sky, etc). Which ever I tried - it just does not want to lock. It takes, under optimum conditions, AT LEAST a "healthy" 1-2 minutes until I get a solid lock (minimum 4 SATS).

I have re-flashed the ROM several times now - just to make sure everything is installed as suppose.

I have also used CM6 (I`m mentioning this one because I know your ROM is build from those sources) - which has THE BEST SATs locking time EVER! (no kidding, I could get a lock inside a building under 40 sec; 3.8m accuracy with enough locked SATs, etc).

Can you please PLEASE do something to improve GPS performance?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] efjbdejong:
+1 !!! Please otherwise best rom IMHO

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] papazche:
Yea thx you too, I will try the rom as well if i find the phone lol. Baby crashing everything at home lol

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kotamax:
download the app called "MSAPP2EXT"

i uploaded it here: http://www.sendspace.com/file/hmubxe

it is in chinese but the steps should be simple enough

install and run

choose the first or second option depending on your needs, then reboot

it take some time to move the apps to the SD-Ext so be patient

note that your have to be rooted and partitioned your SD card beforehand
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] iranterres:
This rom is awesome, fast and smooth, too bad things are quite dead here.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] thehaunted:
Yes good rom! And luca is not dead....just working for his exams!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Caoimhin:
After installing the newest version my Milestone doesn't vibrate whilst receiving a text message. Anyone else having this problem? Do you have any solutions? I tried reinstalling the ROM, wiping everything before doing so.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vlad.obada:
You just have to enable it.

Go to Messages - Settings - Notification Settings. From there you have to enable Vibrate function.

(I don`t know why it`s set to OFF by default - weird)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Caoimhin:
Thank you! I didn't even think about searching through the settings there, I've just been trying in the Sound settings. Everything's okay now!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] lujo_zgb:
Any way of setting up different LED color notifications for sms and email? I don't like them both being green.

I tried with the blink app from the market but it doesn't work :/
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] boyxez:
I've download and install the app, the chinese language make me :confused: confused.

After trying to chose every option, i fund that app works but why am still losing my free space of internal memory?

am i do something wrong? or do you've another option how to free up my internal memory?

thanks before.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kotamax:
after applying the option, the program would move the apps to SD-Ext and reboot

when you use root explorer to check /data/app/, the amount of space should show the size of your SD-Ext partition. If not, then it means you have not succeed in making App2Ext to work

so probably you should check if you have done it already first
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] illi4:
Dear all,

I am getting reboot if I turn flight mode on and then off via power menu. This is happening every time. Could you please advice what could be the reason and how to fix it? I'm attaching a logcat. Thank you in advance.

PS I've got the same behavior on Cyanogenmod 6.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Khul:
@ luca any ETA on 2.6?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
Hi guys, wanted let you know that in this weekend I've worked a bit and done a 2'6 version!

I' tring to fix all the bugs and some little features, but mainly I'm working on having a better memory managment, this may take some testing so just wait a little more in order to have a better result!

Bye!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] s0ulreaver:
Maybe your phone can't handle the VSEL values for the overclocking.

Providing that you already deleted all caches before installing this rom, I think you should try a different overclock in AOR or maybe better remove overclocking completely.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] s0ulreaver:
+1

Love the rom, really looking forward to 2.6. Thank you, Luca!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Khul:
Yay!! the day will come when companys will hire independant guys like you when they realised this talent to understand what the user really wants and make it possible, like you do withh FroyoMod... oh wait! that happends already! no kidding, Motorola should get a clue and hijack you to their headquarters, you rom is the best out there if you ask me.

Hope you can fix the mem thing so no more dropped calls :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
about the GPS is normal here where I stay, maybe you can try "quick gps fix" search it on google is an app that helps to improve A-Gps performance localizing better the servers!

And about the rom, it's NOT based on Cyanogen Mod, but on AOSP, with SOME mods taken from cyanogen (with is like the best Rom to see obviously), not sayng that cyanogen does not deserves credits, but only that this work is not based on the one from him :D :D

Luca is doing it again ;-).

Hope your exams went the good way and wait for 2.6 ^_^
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] joyo22:
Hey luca, thanks for your contribution. I simply love your Mod. It's the fastest and most stable rom I've tried. Eagerly waiting for the next release!

Does anyone has issues with the 3D gallery?

Might be memory hungry but after flipping through a 10-15 photos it seems to be crashing. It goes back to the 1st image.

The 2D gallery also had some issues, it was showing an error message when trying to open a video: There is no program associated to perform this action... or something like this.

Thanks!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] s0ulreaver:
Would this fix work? I'm asking before trying it as it's for the Galaxy S type of phones which I know had serious issues with the GPS.

Thanks!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vlad.obada:
I can`t seem to find such app in market. Can you please tell me which files do I need to edit in order to change the AGPS server address?

I`m sorry for the confusion. Taken or nor after CM, I really like your ROM :cool:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] thehaunted:
Had this too in the beginning, have to look back what I did. Did you try installing a free video program like meridian player?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] s0ulreaver:
Didn't install any video player. I tried clearing the program data, will have to see if it will happen again.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] s0ulreaver:
Two more things I'd like to add:

1. Before trying the FroyoMod I had the APAC rom for about a week. I really liked the TaskManager app that came with it. Long pressing the home button would bring a list with the recent apps but also a "Task Manager" button.

Could this be included in a future version of FroyoMod?

2. There are a lot of apps starting when I start the phone, is there a way to prevent some apps from auto-starting? Gallery, Gmail, Google Search, Google Voice, Market, Messaging, MyUploads, QuickOffice, Voice Dialer.

Can I start these only when I need them?

Thanks!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Android Mate, Autorun manager or Startup Auditor can help with that.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 4tticuz:
Hey guys,

just wanted to know if there is a simple way to replace the notification bar with a black one ONLY?

I really want to have just that bar, nothing more!

I also wonder how to customzie it by my own.

Are there some thinkgs I need to know when customizing with that ROM?

Thanks alot!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] s0ulreaver:
In the FroyoMod extra Settings, if I try to run the script that's changing the phones (PhoneMOD/stock phone).

I'm getting an error when trying to run it: The process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly.

Any fix for this? Thanks!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
this was a iussue, without the original 3d galleryu there isn't a "video player", in 2.6 the problem is fixed

1- not possible as the code of taskkiller by moto is close source so it's not possible to me to analize it

2- see the reply of other users

there is the simple black theme for that!

this is normal as for few seconds the phone is "ithout the phone", the error will show only once and then all will be fine!

Sent from my HTC HD2
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] jlove:
so was the GPS _problem fixed? Does anyone have the same issues of weak GPS Signal? I need GPS in daily use, so if there is a problem with it, i cant use this rom, but i want to :(

does anybody have a solution?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] bandroid842:
Guys! Question:

WHICH IS BEST: CM6 or CM7 or Froyomod? Please answer :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] iranterres:
Have the same problem than you. Even though the developer said his GPS has no problem at all, we're talking about the satellite GPS itself... Not the assisted GPS function, that one i know it works.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
For GPS, have you guys tried FasterFix?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=825717

It gave me an error, do not proceed... blah blah... but it worked perfectly fine :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] s0ulreaver:
Once that happens, use 2G networks gets checked under "Mobile Networks" and Network Operators crashes, as well.

By the way what's better to select: manually select provider or choose "Select Automatically"?

Thanks!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] thehaunted:
In each thread you will find another answer...

Try them yourself!

I tried cm6 and got iritated because not everything worked as I wanted...and then went to luca's Froyomod. It felt like a warm bath...and the themes made the bubbles...and the scripts gave it freedom!

Did you know luca also is 1 of the dev's from andriodriani recovery??? He is god for my phone
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
that's exactly the app I was talking about! :D

I'll include it in 2.6! :D

@ bandroid842

The choose is your, cm6 is a very beautiful rom with dozens of developers in te behind!

Just try them both and you choose!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] jlove:

is it possible to include it to the actual foryo mod. then the froyomod 2.5.0 would be perfect :), and i could download it hehehe
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] thedoginthewok:
My GPS works perfectly and I get the fix in about 3 seconds.

Just wanted to mention that.

89luca89 will you include the new kernels in FroyoMOD ? Will there be an update any time soon ?

Thanks for this great Rom ! :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
the 2.6 is almost done, I'm testing it to have the best performances and less bugs, also I'll have to update some themes, so, for the next week, all will be released! :D

BTW, the memory manager, is done, it's fast, smooth, and can multitask well (altought not big apps like games and browser!)

Also some memory iussue are resolved (in fact it can open pocketnow.com in desktop version now!)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] be0ne:
Can't wait to run the 2.6 !

@ 89luca89 : great news :D

Talking about themes, a few pages back you mentioned be working on porting the honeycomb theme to the FroyoMod. Do you think that could work on FM 2.6 ?

Thx again for that rom =)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] RobyMax1:
Great news from great ITALIAN cook ;)

Only a question: the 2.6 version will have Arabian Froyo?

Or are you waiting for the italian ones?

Thank you for you work, you'll have a beer from me!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] s0ulreaver:
Great news, I'm really looking forward to it! Thanks!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Aekio:
I'm now waiting for your newest release, 2.6.0.

I've been using the Cyanogen6 Mod for like 4 months and I am now almost completely forget of how to upgrade the firmware.

Just my stupid question, can I just use the 2.6.0 update when it is released without having to upgrade other stuff? Or do I need to do an upgrade of something before using the 2.6.0 update? If that so, what upgrade do I need to do first.

Please excuse my stupid. Thank you very much for your work, just really hope it can fix the huge battery draining problem I'm having with the Cyanogen 6.

Thank you.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vlad.obada:
Hey, can you please post here the content of your /etc/gps.conf please ?

@89luca89: I tried with FasterFix. Doesn`t seem to do nothing for me :(

I just froze my arse in the cold for 5 minutes and could only get 4 SATs in view, non able to lock (AGPS Enabled). Grant you, it`s a bit cloudy outside, but still ..

Other than that, eagerly waiting for 2.6 :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Khul:
since you come from a CM6, i would advise you to do this:

*make nandroid of your current install.

*do a full wipe,

*download and install current 2.5 version (run as an update over CM6)

*set up you phone and apps the way you need it while you wait for 2.6

*once 2.6 is out, just run it from recovery as an "update" and you are all set :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] romedo:
Excellent news, I'll wait for 2.6
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Aekio:
Thank you very much, mate. You made everything become a lot easier for me.

Now, if only I could ask one more question, how may I be able to make nandroid of my current install?

Other than that, I think I could recall it from the last time I update.

Thank you.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vlad.obada:
@ 89luca89

Hey, how hard will it be to include TaintDroid in the kernel?

I know we don`t have access to actual kernel on MS -- %$*# U Motorola -- but can it be build as a module or something along this lines?

I, for one, will be very interested to see what private info are leaked and to whom (and I have a feeling I`m not the only one)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cucisan:
wondered that too some time ago...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] m0jo:
AFAIK you can just flash 2.6 without any updating.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Aekio:
Thanks, I'm now on FroyoMOD 2.5 already. ^^

Thank you very much for your hard work.

I'm now waiting for the 2.6.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Interesting...

Why can't an app do that without an unlocked bootloader?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] s0ulreaver:
I don't think the locked bootloader is an issue here.

FroyoMod is compiled from AOSP, right? So adding the code to the kernel shouldn't be an issue I suppose.

Of course, Luca should confirm if it's indeed possible.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] thedoginthewok:
Will do.

I'll post it in a few minutes.

Today I decided to flash my father Milestone with FroyoMOD.

Right now the phone has installed stock Eclair 2.1. I have a question just about one thing:

Do I need to install via RSD lite .sbf file first or not? I am confused of what I read on first page:

FROM THE 2.1.0 RELEASE YOU WILL NOT NEED ANY MORE TO FLASH ANY SBF IF YOU COME FROM ECLAIR OR OTHER FROYO, BOOT.IMG IS FLASHED VIA update.zip !!!

Please advise, thx :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
You need vulnerable recovery to run openrecovery to flash FroyoMOD. You can flash vulnerable recovery and then flash FroyoMOD. GOT 2.2.1 has vulnerable recovery injected into it.

My suggestion would be to flash GOT 2.2.1 and then flash FroyoMOD.

So, has anyone managed to use the interactive governor with this ROM?

Someone asked about this a lot of pages back but didn't get an answer...

The module loads, the interactive governor is selected in 10overclock but the system always defaults to the ondemand governor...

Any solution for this?

This is an incredible ROM, by far the best 2.2 available :)

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] James91:
Hi, 89luca89,

I had once used 2.5 but I found that it took really long time to load apps installed in SD card (using app2sd) .

Sometimes when I turned on my phone, those apps even failed to be loaded ( after 30 mins)

I don't know if it is the common problem of froyo coz gb doesn't have such problem

Anyway, I hope the coming 2.6 will have this problem solved.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] thehaunted:
Hi did you try with another sd already?

I have no problems...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] lujo_zgb:
Hey 89luca89,

Still no custom LED notifications?? :(

Eg. cyan for SMS, green for Gmail, yellow for missed calls?

Tried with Blink! app but it doesn't work :(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cucisan:
have you tried "missed call" app?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] lujo_zgb:
Well it doesn't work with the missed call app, but, missed calls are not my primary problem because I don't call or get calls a lot.

I managed to get different LED notifications with the app called "SMS popup", the only problem is if I have a Gmail notification, it shows only the Gmails green LED, and not the cyan sms LED. Would love if it could be the other way around because SMS are more important to me.

EDIT:

Another thing I noticed is that when I install another keyboard (eg. smartkeyboardPRO) it shows only the android keyboard. Even if I turn of the android keyboard and select the smartkeyboardPRO as the only input method, it still shows sometimes the android keyboard. That occurs mostly after a reboot or a FC, but it can occur anytime, it has no rules.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] xenomorph150:
Use SmsDroid.

With that app, you can tell your Droid to use any color you want for your LED on incoming SMS. I choose orange and an non blinking status led... But you can change that to your taste ^^
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] James91:
Bro, I am not sure if my SD card is faulty.

But it is really strange if my SD card is faulty and I can still have my apps successfully loaded in gingerbread rom.

So, just confused whether it is froyo problem or my SD card problem
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] thehaunted:
I use sms popup it can do a lot incl led colors....
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] James91:
Bro, what is the class of your SD card??

Although the class should just affect writing speed, not the reading speed......
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] thehaunted:
I had this to, and after this problem i used the solution for many apps: is there a problem? Is it installed on sd? Is the problem gone when you switch it to telephone? Send a message to the dev of the app! Smart keyboard rules! But not on my class 6 sd card ;-)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mirmoon1988:
sure!!!
