First impression of FroyoMod 2.7.0.

SO, 2 mins ago, wiped cache partition, wiped dalvik chache, factory reset, flashed this ROM.

Entered account details, apps on ext2 all showed up, tried a few, working.

New market. Great. No lag at app launch.

GPS test, here it comes. Connected to WiFi, launched Maps, 3 secs and GPS locked[Edit: in my living room]. WOWWWW..That's it for me. No more other roms.

Salute to Luca..

Will do more testing in coming days and will report bugs (if any).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] slym84:
Gmail is running super-smooth on my MS.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] seleu:
thanks! it work :P
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] IFLPI:
Yea, maybe gingerMod luca? That would be so great as the cm7 has very little ram.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Well, i think this problem is restricted to me as i see no one else reporting this.

" The Phone will not ring when i get a call "

I have had this on all FroyoMOD's. Damn, that's the only reason keeping me away from this excellent mod.

Any way to get this working. Also, i see that this happens mostly when you apply a theme.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] slym84:
Nothing wrong here. Rings, vibrates. no mods done. Will be using ur themes soon, siheshn
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] IFLPI:
Yesterday i had the same. Just like on cronos roms :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] era_:
After wiped cache partition, wiped dalvik chache, factory reset

It's become work!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kawaisaki:
I just have FC on music application. Gmail is ok for me.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] efjbdejong:
Hey Sileshn,

Do you use a custom ringtone that is on ur sdcard?

I had that to but now I push my custom ringtones and notifications to system/media.

Maybe that works.

EJ
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Well, i guess i will have to bail out. I just can't afford to miss calls. Back to my stock nandroid.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
No, they are all on system/media
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mblaster4711:
Thanks for Version 2.7.0

it's a realy ROM
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] GieltjE:
I am running Cyanogenmod 7.0.1 and tried Froyomod, but I am missing 2 important options:

- Disable dock observer (stops my phone going on 100x per day in my pocket)

- Keep display off on plug (so I don't have to turn my phone off 4x manually each time I plug it in).

Will these be integrated some time?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
HI :D

You may try using the PowerWidget in status, to chage profile, it sometimes happened to me that by default it gave 1 or 2 missed calls (in 2.5.0) but changing the profile, removed the bug, maybe try before having to data wipe!

@All

SCEEN TEARING:

sometimes justr read the First posts :D

This is a conseguence of the DSI fix that is ENABLED by default, in the 4th post you will find the Packs for disable it or enable it, IF YOU DISABLE IT, YOU'LL HAVE BETTER PERFORMANCE BUT SOME REBOOTS!

The OLD pack is not compatible with the new rom so download the new fix or remover as the precedent are not comaptible with this rom

OVERCLOCK

I remained with values pretty stable for the main overclock, but if you have problems you can ALWAYS flash another overclock!

APPS

I read that someone have problem with 3D gallery and launcher, if you read the main thread you'll find the soolution :D

GINGERBREAD

I will NOT do any GingerMOD (or whatever xD) cause I do not think gingerbread does run well on Milestone, yes its beautiful, but has mean MEMORY IUSSUE, whatever you do (see the great work of zeppelinrox) you still canot have a true fluid and multitasking rom, plus, all the exclusive extras that on froyo only the FroyoMod have, in Gingerbread are incorporated also in the cyanogen7, so it' pretty unuseful, and not of sense, spending hours in a Rom that will NEVER have the speed of CM6 or FroyoMod....
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
True. But unluckily more and more apps/games are coming, only compatible with 2.3. But nevermind. Just applied 2.7, removed DSI fix, now I'll put MusicMOD and Gallery 2D (Honeymusic sux 4 me, and I prefer stability in gallery, not how it looks).

Launcher 3D never been faster for me, it's really fast! But still, I don't need 7 screens (memory loss), so I'll stay with LP+(fastest in Froyo, especially in app drawer).

Btw, I think you should leave keyboards/apps/mods how they are now(however, I think

MusicMOD, Gallery 2D and Launcher 2D

should be default - speed,stability > design :)), and try to make the ROM faster with even better memory management, better GPS locking(still didn't try GPS on 2.7) etc. If it is possible, of course.

Keep up the good work!

*waiting for HCv2 theme x)*

Edit: GPS working, 11/12 sattelites in less than 2 minutes :).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] puffo81:
And finally.. it came!!! Downloading immediately!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] xenomorph150:
Aw cool!

I think I will try that soon! ^-^.

And just some nice infos (german though):

http://www.golem.de/1104/83054.html

Motorola wants to step back from locked Bootloaders!!! o.o.

And thats not meant only for the Xoom - but for all future products - if the "ISPs" don't complain. (Otherwise they will follow them -.-')

Wished they would also "unlock" the Stone ^^
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
They should unlock the stone, they will pay off for awful Froyo update... :/
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Svid:
2.7.0?

Ill test this ROM :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 4tticuz:
Such a great piece of work!

Thanks alot, luca! Really well done!

Never noticed my stone running such a fast and smooth boot animation.

Downloads from market seem to be even faster and scrolling trough anything is even super smooth.

I disabled DSI error fix cause I never had any freezes or reboots caused by that error.

My stone is running with the 800-500-400-350-250Mhz Normal Voltage zip, super smooth!

Just one little thing, when chaning the theme the puldownbuttons are still the same, any solution? Want simple ones...

Thanks again luca!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] salisbury_steak:
I perfectly agree. Out of boredom, I even tried an eclair ROM. And I would have stayed with that if I could only get app2ext to work with it.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rav_rudy:
Hello,

I want try new FroyoMOD, but when I wipe data and select second option in Open Recovery (something with "update.zip"), Milestone shows me error worded much about "EOCP signature verified failure".

I'm trying to install FroyoMOD over stock Froyo from Motorola. Of course, it was rooted previously

Open Recovery edition:

Androidiani OpenRecovery by 89luca89 & Azhad
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] noc123:
First of all. Thx Luca for another awesome version of FroyoMod. In my opinion GPS issue has beed solved. First fix after just a few seconds.

Unfortunately, i have FC on Gmail app. Can you tell me what's wrong?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
You have to flash vulnerable recovery to run AOR required to flash FroyoMOD.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] salisbury_steak:
That error appears when the vulnerable recovery of the ROM hasn't been flashed yet. What ROM/SBF are you currently using?

Uninstall your Gmail app. And install a fresh one from the market. (It worked for another user.)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 4tticuz:
Milestone Overclock tells me my stone runs with 550 MHz, did I something wrong in installing the 800/... update via "apply update" in my OR?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ROBINGAZI:
Everything seems to working fine :D Great job Luca.

But I'd love to have the stock camera back. Could it be added to the "extras" post?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Stock camera will not work on froyoMod, which is AOSP.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
Milestone overclock app is not compatible anymore with the new module by Skirlax wich have 5 steps overclock, in fact Milestone overclock app recognize max 4 slots with is module...

Use SetCpu instead!

If you referr to the Motorola one, it's impossible as it depends on several code that is closed source in the framework!

@GMAIL APP

Just go to Settings>Applications>all apps and search for gmail and delete the data of the app, then it should work fine, or unistall it and instal from market!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] noc123:
Can you tell me how to do that? I can't uninstall it. I can only move to SD and Clear Data. I've found Gmail in Market but when I want to upgrade to new version I got info that package hasn't been sign properly.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 4tticuz:
Buy root explorer and delete gmail from /system/apps.

Dont forget to mount R/W in upper right corner
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] salisbury_steak:
Or... as mentioned by Luca above, try deleting the data. That should work already.

I think you can get a free version of Titanium Backup from the market, you can uninstall system apps using that as well. Not to mention it's the best backup app (in my opinion).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
No need to buy, he can do it from AOR.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
There is a app called uninstaller root ( both free and paid ) that allows you to handle all apps on your phone. You can delete, backup or freeze apps.

https://market.android.com/details?id=org.baole.rootuninstall
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] meilstone:
The new gallery 3d app makes some problems.

If i try to enable or disable the motion gestures. There appers a little messaage saying "Motion enabled" but it immediatly turns to "motion disabled" and then back to "motion enabled" and so on. without further input from me.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] salisbury_steak:
Maybe you need auto-rotation turned on? (Just a guess.)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] meilstone:
well its enabled.

another problem: the motoblur keyboard has veeery small letters. seems to be a small bug.

EDIT:

How cann i change the settings of the gingerbread theme. to change the fonttype? it's to slim for me ;)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mile44:
great 2.7.0

Installed 2.7.0.

- GPS is great. Fix in 5 seconds inside a building!

- FCs related to app2ext solved. I see it is now using bind mounts instead of symlinks, very nice.

- Memory handling has 0 in oom_kill_allocating_task. (AngryBirds are happy, not so angry anymore)

Facebook crashes are also resolved (the app got an update on the market).

There is still some memory related issue with Maps. I manage to lock the phone by activating the satellite layer and panning around...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vlad.obada:
Does any of you has issues with installing 2.7.0?

What ever I do, I`m not able to further than Sing In screen of the 1st configuration without the phone freezing on me. Some times I don`t even get that far. Constant reboot loops, freezez, etc.

Flashed it 3 times already, wiped D-cache & such. Any other ideas of what I could try next?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] puffo81:
LUCA = WIN AGAIN!!!

I just updated to 2.7.0, wiping everything even if coming from 2.6.1 (I'm a wiping maniac!). I can jyst say that the ROM is even faster than the previous, I use launcher Pro and it really flies (I've removed the fix for DSI), no reboot or crashes so far, and most of all, GOS has got a lock in about 5 seconds from cold inside my office!!!

Now there's no story: this is in my opinion the best ROM ever seen on our MS!

I just have to test the battery, but if it is the same as 2.6.1 is good enough for me..

THANKS AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] puffo81:
I think it's an issure related to the overclock; try rising the vsel in 10overclock file, or bring the frequencies down to an acceptable value.. not all MS are the same!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vlad.obada:
I beg to forgive my ignorance - but how do I do that I if can`t even boot the phone properly ?

Also, what frequencies / vsel would you recommend for a safe boot?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] puffo81:
The easiest way, is to open in windows the package of a ROM that works fine for you, in example, CM7.

Go to

system/etc/init.d

directory, and you will find a file called 10overclock. Drag it and drop it on the desktop.

Now open the package of FroyoMOD 2.7.0, go in the same directory and overwrite the 10overclock file. Save the package, copy it into you openrecovery/updates folder of your phone, and update again. Now it should work!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] elpicard:
Hello!

Finaly I can post here! first of all THANKS! for the FroyoMod, Im using 2.5 but I think that not for long... (hours..)

So, before wipe anything, a few questions... and sorry by my Argentinian English...

I think that I have an old Froyo GOT as base... is still the best as 2.2 base or there is some new verison or betther kernel?

Where I could find a simple explanation to how change the overclock with AOR?, I curently have GOT OR, but I will change ir before upgrade to 2.7

So... when I came back to home, I will upgrade it....

Thanks Again!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Edit the 10Overclock file inside the update.zip before flashing.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] moviecut:
sounds really great, i will update my froyoMOD, when i come home.

there`s just one little thing, that i regret not having any more: the contacts.apk an phone.apk from MIUI!

i will try again to get these two apks to work on froyoMOD but i think i will have no luck. if anyone else can help me, please post here. these apps are so much better than the stock ones...only the "a-z"-scrolling list in the contacts.apk is worth it...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vlad.obada:
Thank you for the info.

But being a bit lazy I just booted in OR, mount the SD then edit the file & whipe & flash.

PS: what Freq / vsel should I start with? (just to be on the safe side)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Try gocontacts from market. Getting miui contacts apk to work will be difficult.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] moviecut:
wow, go contacts seems to be what i was looking for! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Khul:
There is a great detailed guide on "foro grupoandroid" in spanish. You can google for:

TUTORIAL Overclock FroyoMod Khul grupoandroid

Look for it and you will find all the detailed information needed.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] MakeW00t:
Any Spotify users here? I'm having issues with the spotify app, it lags all the time and closes suddenly without any FC label. I've tried reinstalling but it didn't help me. And it worked perfectly with MIUI
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vlad.obada:
Any way to get the old Gallery.apk back?

Imho, the 3D one is not that useful.

LE: Never mind it. It`s on the 1st page :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] seleu:
you can use root manager too, is more easy to use! just need to browse the system apps on the root manager y simply click to deleted the app, and the restart the phone :P
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] seleu:
agree, they are really small! its normal or is just a bug? how can i fix it?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] seleu:
well i guess your right about that, besides later i will buy the htc desire that have more RAM and probably run a ginger rom :)..for now i stay with froyomod on my milestone because is the best rom i ever used, really! xD
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
regardin motorola keyboard is a keyboard bug, as its a port from eclair as Froyo one needs some smail in framework...

@ANYONE DOESNT LIKE SOME APP

GO IN THE THREAD THERE IS AN APPOSITE POST WITH ALL DOWNLOADS; ITS EASY TO FIND, PLEASE READ THE FIRST POST!!

@gmail problems

it's enough to remove application data in settings>Applications Setting> manage application and search for gmail!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] seleu:
hey luca one question! i using the sileshn theme, really great by the way xD and the facebook app looks awesome! but i uninstalled i don't know why XD hoy can i used again? because i install the one is on the market, and the look of the theme or the rom i don't know, its gone!! :(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rav_rudy:
Thank You for help.

Thanks for great job, but in my opinion FroyoMOD, at not overclocked Milestone, are as slow as stock Froyo from Motorola. Many impresive solution, but 3D menu are very slow and neuter.

After short expirience with FroyoMOD, I recovered stock Eclair.. Many bugs but it is so fast
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Khul:
try this:

delete app data, uninstall it, reboot and wipe cache...then reinstall it, maybe that will fix it for ya.

This i cant assure but ive noticed that since ive switched off JIT some apps will no longer lagg as before. maybe you can give it a try
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Lol, you can use other launchers like LP+ or ADW. 3D Launcher is just an alternative, slow and laggy. Eclair is old, so old... And believe me, official Froyo is MUCH slower than FroyoMOD.

-----------------------------------

Only 1 BUG bothers me in

every

Froyo ROM. The sound bug I've already mentioned.

Example : music player on, song is playing, volume @ 0%. Loud noise (something like a whir - ssssssss...) is coming from the speaker > this happens in games, music, videos, everywhere.

Is this bug so bad that it cannot be fixed? :/
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
hi there thx luca for this great rom!

one question, the gingerbread theme i applied seems to have some stock icons in it, like usb, gmail, email, looks little odd!

any chance to fix this?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
I'll release HC2 theme based on honeybreadv4 tomorrow for people who are interested.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Any screenshots to impress us ? :P ;)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Wond3r:
Is there any voltage between normal and ULTRA LOW? Want good battery but still stay stable
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
I am too sleepy to get you screenshots, so for now you need to satisfy yourself with the screenshots on the honeybread thread.

Good night or good day depending on where you are.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] xenomorph150:
Thanks! Tried you Honeycomb Theme now on the 2.7.0 and got some glitches - i.e. the "+" on the Calender or the complete transparent back of the galaxy power widget bar.

And within the power widget: if you select the "sound and vibrate" option, the symbol becomes GREEN o.o. wrong pnG?

By the way: Any way to decrease the count of launcher "windows"? I do not need 7 at all XD. (got back to 2d btw)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Launcher Pro, ADW, GO Launcher... there is plenty of them. I prefer Launcher Pro (Plus version) on Froyo. Just install one of these, and uninstall launcher2.apk with AOR (in app management).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ROBINGAZI:
Do you plan to release the theme for stock froyo alongside FroyoMod?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] skadude66:
What kind of battery temperatures is everyone getting with the stock ROM? I haven't changed any of the overclock files, and my phone is idling around 37-41C.. Is it just me or is that pretty hot?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
I lowered vsel to 58 @ 1GHz, right now it's on AC charging, wifi on, I'm using Tapatalk, and it's on 38C. Usually on charger it is around 40C when I'm using it.

In your case it is idle... wifi on/off? Maybe apps are syncing or something. Check your battery usage.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] shiyou:
is this better then CM7? im running CM7 right now and if i want to go to froyomod, all i do is wipe and update? or do i have to flash some sort of sbf first?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Aoi_sora9x:
it's actually freaking hot running on the stock OC... I use the 900 OC undervolt instead. :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] meilstone:
has someone problems with the reflow of text in websites after zooming, too?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Wond3r:
Updated to the HTC keyboard.. bug - going to the settings and trying to calibrate it causes a FC
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] skadude66:
My battery usage uses is the Display(the top most used). Nothing else seems to be out of the ordinary. 38C is my max and I would really only want that on a full load, not idling :confused:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Nope, just wipe all and apply update. And after, if you want to change apps like music/gallery/launcher/etc. download .zip's from 2nd post(I think) and apply them as update too.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] shiyou:
hmm my kernel is the leaked GOT 2.2 version

is that ok? its kinda old
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Yup, I'm on GOT 2.2.1... I think luca (dev) said that this ROM version will work on Eclair sbf too because it changes boot.img (something like that :))
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Vrtfrank:
Has anybody the problem not being able to change the network between 2g and 3g with energy or Samsung widget?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
Hi, so the only app not upgradable is the terminal as i think that the one included, is a bit different from the market one, its will have another signature maybe...

For adb, just try to remove and re-attach the usb cable, might work! Remember to put the mile in charge mode or mass archieve mode!

Got it! Will release the 2.0.1 today with some optimizations and bugfix;

Hey nadlabak, how did you resolved the iussue of h264 playing? I want to try to improve the quality!

Wuould appreciate a little help :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
Apply the little fix in main thread, or wait for the 2.0.1 today!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
Thx will investigate on this, probably is still something to do with sleep not trigging well in our rom (cm, mine cronos)

Today I'll release a little 2.0.1 with bugfix and some optimization; then also a little idea I want to test when at home, you'll know better later :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] emprize:
can u make the app drawer to traditional one? no 3d i mean, or make a option let us choose, personally quite hate the 3d drawer
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] moviecut:
i think launcher pro will be the best option, as most of us will change it after flashing.

im still on froyoMOD v1. The akkudrain isnt there. all "selfbuild" mods have it, the ones that based on the g.o.t. have a far better runtime...so ill wait for some sleep-fix or so. froyoMOD v1 is great i think.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] alicheusz:
YouTube is not upgradable also
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] edehahn:
just remove /system/app/YouTube.apk and install from market latest version. worked fine for me
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Khul:
@emprize: 3D drawer smoothness in this launcher is its strongest feature. if i were to use it woulld be only because of its smooth drawing better than any other i ve tryed so far.

@ 89luca89:

Thanks for the rom, love your work.

-Any chance gps fixing for 2.0. 1?

-Chance integrating search contacts like you get on Dialer One? (will search both phone numbers and names as you type on dial pad?)

Note:right now i use dialer as default app for contact search and administration but any other action goes to default dialer.

What about battery guys??? Is better than Nadlabak's or Cronos???

Can somebody which have used it to answer me please, cause for me it's most important as i miss a lot of hours from my home...
