Sileshn's fix has worked for me too. But it would be really beautiful to have these CTR animations without the backlight bug =)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Aoi_sora9x:
Ok I also have this light issue. I have a rounded key Milestone. It is very clear at night but during the day not everyone can see the difference. Anywho the battery life is still so darn good even with this bug so I have no complain

About the slider not respond to touch, I'm quite sure it's not FM exclusive. I got those problems when I'm using MIUI rom as well :/

And yeah, your FM is really appreciated in VN, Luca. :) I'm a Vietnamese right here.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] PhoenixNghi:
I think it's true, we really like your ROM, because I haven't seen any ROM which is so smooth as FM 2.6.1 before, most of ROMs lag.. lag.. lag in app drawer, in settings or in Root Explorer, but your ROM is as smooth as iOS UI.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Mr Coffee:
Luca, thanks a lot for your great job:o, but I still have FC with Tweetdeck:( and must back to 2.8.0b. Can you test and fix this bug? Thanks:D.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Your only problems in HC theme are volume slider and 1% battery steps, correct.

1% battery png's has not been implemented into the framework. I will do it today. I thought you were using froyomod extras to show battery %.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mblaster4711:
I Had this BUG also in Stoch Eclair and Froyo some times.

Wenn you switch phone off and on with power switch you will be able to slide and answer the call.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] nowforever:
Sorry, but there are many update package to fix back light issue.

Which is the right one?

CTR-ON_BACKLIGHTFIX or BACKIGHT_FIXv2?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] LuigiC6:
Okay, just gunna put it out there, its Cathode Ray Tube, or CRT not CTR!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] keunhuvac:
Hi!

A year ago, MS was the most popular phone in Viet Nam, and now, in our local forum, we still love your ROM very much! But number of active users on MS topic are about ~100 ^_^, so i wonder why there are ~10000 downloads for 1 ROM from Viet Nam!

And did you count it from multiupload? I uploaded 1 file to my multiupload account for almost a week, and only 2 downloads, but after 1 night, i saw 50 downloads for that file !!! So i think there was problem with multiupload!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] BlackSon:
Thx for the fix Luca, works for me.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] linuxholgi:
I applied the V2 Fix and the problem is gone. But the LED indicator is behaving strange. When I receive an email, the green LED remains constantly on, unless I check. Before the fix it was flashing.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] szacuken:
+1

I have got the same issue with green LED. However, is appeared in the first version FIX_BACKLIGHT. FIX_BACKLIGHT_V2 still have this problem. But I do not have bug with backlight now :)

And programs: Edmondo, My Tracks, Transportdroid, Tweetdeck dont work. FC on start. I think it has something to do with the application "maps". Can you fix it too? :)

Good Luck Luca :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
For me, Tweetdeck opened, but after I added Facebook account, Done button doesn't react and I can only exit the app...

P.S. I uninstalled Maps.apk using Titanium Backup.

Edit: after I tried with Twitter, it FCed.

Same LED problem here.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Joolee:
"Buienrader" and "9292ov" also crash on start. (wasn't in 2.8) Both use GPS. Google Maps app does work when I let it load completely before touching the screen, otherwise, it will freeze and I need to pull the battery.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] inkognito3:
That's correct...and when u install something or when browers is loading the same problem like with volume blue indicator is at full to the end
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
@luca I don't use any of mentioned apps, but theres like 7-8 apps that FC so it's a serious bug. You should investigate and try to fix it in 2.9.1 :).

@sileshn

What has to be changed in framework for things with numbers? Also if anyone can give me fully black .pngs for these things :) :). And a transparent slider (no. 3) :).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Joolee:
You can just rip those from other skins.

You probably have to look in framework-res\res\drawable-hdpi\ at:

status_bar_background.png

status_bar_background.9.png

statusbar_background.png

etc.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] TheSgrash:
please can you update your framework-res.apk please???
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] xenomorph150:
Ok, another Bug Report - and this time its quite funny oo.

I got 2.9.0 installed, qwertz Keyboard - flat style, 900 ULV Settings, ARC Theme (which does look really nice by the way, awesome work! =) ) - and different settings set. The phone does work and I don't have the Backlight Bug.

But I got some other stuff to report: I need an new "Remove DSI Fix" - the Phone does seem a bit slow - and as I never really experienced DSI Problems, I did normally remove the fix. But doing this via the old 2.8.0 File, something terrible happend: After rebooting, the phone just told me everytime that the Battery was on 0% (it was on 70%) and it did shutdown. Using an USB Cable, I could boot and work on it, but installing the DSI Fix again didn't do any good - so I reapplied 2.9.0. I did that 3 times to be sure that the "Remove DSI Fix" Package was the source of the error - and left it off for now. But I would love to see an remove package for 2.9.0! ^_^.

Other than that: I love the new launcher, its different - but awesome.

The crt animation is kickass XD. Beautiful!

ARC Theme Error: Date and Time are set to "black" colour. Carrier as well. Settings are changable in UI ExtraSettings. After Reboot, that was all ok.

Couldn't see any GPS Bugs, felt like GPS was a bit slow, but its very certain that this was an fault on my side.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
1. status_bar_header_background.9.png

2. title_bar_portrait.9.png

3. statusbar_background.png

4. status_bar_close_on.9

All are in the /res/drawable-hdpi folder.

The alternate black versions are already available in framework-res.apk under the same folder. They have "cust" appended to their names.

For transparent slider for no 3, just use any image editor and change the transparency according to your liking.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
I have not modded the framework to include png's for all battery %'s. So you will only get 10% battery steps.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
You can't remove the fix with 2.8 file, because in 2.8 it was workaround, now it's a real fix for DSI errors. Luca should remove remove_dsi_fix.zip from the OP. This fix in 2.9 is not causing the lag or any screen tearing.

I think DSI fix isn't causing that "bit slow"

@sileshn thanks, I'll change that when I get to PC :).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
If you have FCing apps, please send me logcats so I can see them! :D

About the led...I did not touch anything, but I'll surely look onto it!!

So BACKLIGHT_FIX--> Led blinks

BACKLIGHT_FIXv2----> Led remains on

right??

heh its 2.9.0, not 2.8.0, so its normal that this wont work! I'm using kabaldan dsifix.ko (kernel module) does not slow down the phone!

In main topic Dsi fix is removed! btw!

to resolve just reapply the rom wiping caches (but remember you'll lost the arc theme you have to reapply it)

@PhoenixNghi @keunhuvac

wow i'm very glad the rom is appreciated :D

Thanks!!

But I still think multiupload have something wrong xD
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] nico101:
I have problems with installing apps from market many won't install even if I get apk version of them still no luck installer says "application not installed" any advice what should I do ?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Joolee:
I'll try posting a full log later. In the log that would be send to google, the stacktrace shows me: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com.google.android.maps.GeoPoint

I think that should give enough information to fix it.

//Edit: Rolling back the google maps update doesn't fix the issue.

Try to empty your SD card and retry. (backup the contents of course)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
No, it remains ON on both fixes :/.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] meilstone:
I have only one question:

Why does everyone think that there are two MS models out there in the world?

You cannot decide it by looking at the keyboard: (some reasons)

1. Motorola has never confirmed that they produced two models

2. After i have received my new Milestone 2 years ago i had a flat keyboard, like on the pictures. But it changed somehow after a while. After reading in several forums that people think that Motorola changed it because of the bad reviews i noticed the first time that i also got the "new" keyboard. bigger buttons.

BUT: then i had send my MS to Motorola cause the SD Card reader was broken. So they changed the whole bottom part of the MS. So i had a brand new keyboard. And suddenly i notice: WHAT i got the old flat keyboard? But then i thought i will now put an eye on the keyboard. And after 3 weeks and a lot of typing the layout changed again of the keyboard and i got the big buttons again.

Conclusion:

The keyboard changes its surface due to temperatur and typing

2. i used the CTR animatiosn on backlight fix. Same old problem.

3. One idea how the bug can be fixed (just an idea)

maybe one command is missing. Because the Animation defines the empty place as black( black like in wathcing videos the LEDs arent completely off). So maybe you have to put the command like in the original Lock animation, that the Display turns off. All LEDS do not receive any energy. Well i think an animations is like a video. And after the Animations has finished it still remains as like the background of a movie, where you only have a black background.

Thank you!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mystichobo:
Hate to say it, but there are two very distinct keyboard versions. I'll try to get a photo over the next couple of days.

Maybe you have elastic keys?! Never heard of that!

Seriously, I've seen with my eyes different kinds of keyboards, maybe that doesn't mean that HW is different but just the keyboard.

In example, I have rounded one, my mom has flat one and the keys have never changed! do you use an hammer to press the buttons? :confused:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] meilstone:
No i dont use hammer.

And if you also do a a research on the internet you could find other people who has the same happenings as me. Also the dat rapair (German Partner of Motorola) has sometimes told, that the keys change their layout because of temperatur and use

Progress so far. Click here for screenshots.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
Hey thank you :D There is a Sense Theme, but anyway more themes are Better!!

When you've finished, I'll link also your theme to the future theme post!!

if you apply the patch, it works flawlessy

you come without erasig data (another FroyoMOD) or from a full triple-wipe? Maybe you can try wipin data of unistalliong and reinstalling the email.apk (using rooteplorer or titanium backup!)

@ALL

Uploading themes, as promised we start with 10 themes first!

I'm creating the post right now!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Wow very very nice indeed 10 Themes for a start, that's great, just wanted to ask, did you found a fix for the AAC bug? not that is a priority or something, but it would be nice to be able to record with AAC sound :), And another thing, do you plan on using the upcoming froyo for milestone for next realease, like maybe the kernel from the oficial 2.2 if its diferent and other improvements if any will exist in the oficial update?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
Not yet :-(

About the milestone release, absolutely yes, but I'll not base my rom on it! I'll take the Kernel, maybe some proprietary files, but the Rom will still be AOSP!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cucisan:
first of all, superb rom! its fast and all the good froyo stuff is there i need ;)

though my battery life hasnt much improved over stock eclair.. :) but thats ok for me..

but i have a problem: using the excellent openrecovery androidiani i choose to install "quertz" keyboard, which is the one i have (german milestone).. but it renders my hw keyboard completly useless.. it doesnt matter which one i try to install, it just doesnt seem to work..

any ideas or hints how i get quertz hw keyb. working in your rom? thx!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] phikr:
installed your rom yesterday, had some reboots first and there was a huge battery drain, but after charging over night everything seems to work flawlessly, great job again luca ! :)

anyway, there's one really annoying thing: i applied the qwertz keyboard layout in the androidiani OR (as i'm from germany...) and now neither the keyboard nor the volume buttons and the camera button is working anymore! tried to apply EURO qwerty keyboard -> still not working. after reapplying the froyomod update everythings working again, but i still don't have a qwertz layout...any solution for this?

EDIT: damn it, cucisan was quicker than me :D anyway, still hoping for a solution for this! :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
@phikr @cucisan

For now seems a bug of the androidiani OR, on nadlabak site there is a guide you can follow to change keyboard layout, or try with Stock OpenRecovery, under settings there is a keyboard voice!

@ALL

THEMES ADDED

Finally we start theming this rom :D Feel Free to create themes for this rom!

Hey, would it be possible to modify the Gallery 3D source code so it scans only ONE directory (and subdirectories inside) for pictures? I have a ****load of album covers on my SD, if I put a .nomedia there the music files also disappear from the native Music player.

Hmmm, I think you could also add the DEFAULT files to the Themes section in case someone wants to restore the default look :)

hi! Sorry but I didn't see your post...

mmmh this seems a setting iussue, did you try to see abit if changing some phone settings (under call settings voice)???

What is your precedent ROM and did you wipe data??

Thx, but about display, this might be a problem of data wipe, expecially coming from another Rom not AOSP!

What do you mean, Mine is stable and does not reload at all even when I heavy-browse...

Did you try ADW/LP??

Hi!

Is Needed if you want to have a fast Gps lock! Thats all, the right order si;

Wipe data

Wipe cache

Wipe dalvik

Install Main ROM

Install patch

reboot

And you're online!!!

Did you install OpenRecovery?

This update is to apply throught That!

I recommen the New androidiani 3.3 OpenRecovery, but also OpenRecovery 1.46!

About the eclair thing, you just hve to wipe data/dalvik/cache and apply the zip as I explained before, and it's done!+

(EdIT: UPDATE FIRST POST FOR INCLUDING new androidiani AS RECOMMENDED)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] IFLPI:
Woooohaaaa !! FLASH animation is great :D:D

scroll overshoot in menu/ browser (which is fast) and many more.. (first minutes of this rom in my hands)

with blackDroid theme is nice, the same droidX i believe. :D

haha. Keep going with these mods, they are great !!

You mean ROM before v2.1.0? First GOTs 2.2.1 than FM v2 -> v2.0.1 -> v.2.1.0 i always did wipe and on all versions of FM i noticed this problem. I checed options under call settings but it didnt work. Its a big problem for me, my bussines depends on answering calls and this bug makes my work a bit difficult...

Thanks for help

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
I grabbed the icons from Cyanogen (all to be sure no one will miss)

But for now, to change the icons in the status, you need to Re-Compile the Rom...

In next releases I'll try to find a solution!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Quentin himself:
Thx for your patch Lucas, it works for me. Too bad for CTR :/ ! But it is useless so i can live without it :)

Can't wait some new features in the next version :D !

Oh, if i can propose some new features inspired of CM7 : long press on search button open an app (i think about the message app). It was really cool when i had CM7 on my Milestone (just one week, time to see its horrible battery life and to understand i can't find smoother than FM !) and it's the only useful thing i regret from CM7 (useless thing : CTR off because of backlights "bug")

And the last one and the most important in my opinion : write the actual state of FM-Extras in their summary because i don't know if it's activate or not.

EDIT : Notifications's led doesn't blink ("clignoter" in french?) - stay on.

Don't hesitate, if you see mistakes (and i know there are) and you have time, correct me, i will appreciate a lot :)

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] puffo81:
Ok I'll search something about it.. it sounds so strange!!!! are you talking about permanent changes due to temperature and use? My MS get very hot when I use 3G, and I use a lot the keyboard, but the keys have never changed!

What should i think about that?

In February i wonder after having repaired the phone about the keyboard...And in May i look and see the thick keys. And in this period i havent repaired my Handy.

To Temperatur: Mine is getting really hot when using 3G

Maybe i'm wrong, maybe not. Who knows? just wanted to tell my story.

2. how is the gaming .. simple stuff like angry birds rio and all .. do they run smooth enough ?

rom currently downloading :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] milest0ne2:
Same here with 2.9.0. I use "c:geo" for geocaching and as soon as I start maps from within the app, it instantly force closes.

Google Maps works and so does using "show on external map" and then Google Maps inside "c:geo", but all maps-functions inside the app FC right away.

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] s0ulreaver:
I would love to see this implemented, too.

Knowing how all those tweaks are done I know it's not so easy.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] s0ulreaver:
IMHO use the highest ULV overclock your phone can bear with.

Try 900ULV and 800ULV, see if the phone can boot, then test to see if it's stable.

The default 1000MHz consumes the battery faster.

The ULV settings (ultra low voltage) should make the battery last longer but you just have to find one that works on your phone.

Sorry about the power button, can't you wake the screen by sliding the keyboard? Maybe you should ask the 2nd question in the CM7 thread, you might get a faster answer.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rrohanjs:
yea i can wake the screen using the slider , i used this method while i was on miui but it got quite irritating after some time .. so went to cronos with cmextras patch to get this waking the screen option ..

i'm hoping for the maker of this rom to read that request of mine .. he wud be the best to answer :)

Thank you so much. It was not necesary to make a full wipe. I just taked out my memory card and...voila, my e-mail client doen't FC anymore. I just have to format my mem. card and i think everything will be ok. I don't have one ext2 partition on my SD.

And no, i don't have overclocked CPU. Everything is by default.

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] s0ulreaver:
FroyoMod comes overclocked by default and the default 1000MHz of the current version might not work for everyone.
