does anyone else have the issue of not being able to exit from the camera?

Not going in through the app-drawer, or loading from app-action... but long pressing the cam button. It takes a pic, then once i press hope, or long hold back to kill the cam, it WILL NOT close... it just keeps running.

The screen will never time out, wont dim, cant lock, all keys stop responding! One time i let it sit just to see if it would ever time-out... it ran for almost 15 minutes... WTF!??

i dont know what this issue is, but it stops me from using my camera at all, cause i have to battery pull EVERY time i want to get a pic.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] elkoos:
Thank You for amazing, truly amazing job. Now my phone "lives" over 24hrs w/o problems that I had on other roms. Not to mention new 2.3.x ones, which drain battery like water on the desert.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
Hey, sorry didnt see the feedback!

About this, i dont think its related to the kernel! Try with a data wipe, maybe there is some data corruption...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
Hi, this sounds new ti me...try doung this :

Goto:

Settings-application-manage apps

Search for the camera and delete cache and data of the camera app...

If tjis does not work try with a data wipe (total) and tell me if works!!!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] centroi:
thank you a lot for your work, no one problem since I installed the rom, I wouldn't never think that the milestone can be as fast it is and be again that i need at this moment

with 2.1 official battery drains in 12 hours with a little use during all day, now has become much better, more than 24 hours with a lot of use

I will like if it is possible when official froyo will relase that you port and replace the actual beta code from 2.2 from the final code to your actual froyomod and have a better rom yet, with all the froyomod improvements, or make your improvements in the official, if you want, I dont think that milestone has to have 2.3

thanks you a lot
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] m0jo:
The only thing that i'd like to have from 2.3 is the neat screen-off animation :) if you (luca) ported this to the froyomod it would be awesome!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
The only thing I want from gingerbread is the text selection (very cool), the animation is just a show off xD And it's not easly portable from gingrerbread...

BTW Yes, when we will have official 2.2, this rom will pass to the Final Phase
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] upss16:
battery reset how?

hi luca gr8 job with this rom and i am finding it pretty stable. only issue is with some battery drain(after few gameloft games) can u advise when to actually use the mod for battery calibrate as in extra settings. tnxs a lot
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] centroi:
nice, but useless
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 4tticuz:
Best ROM for me so far, contains all the great stuff and runs more than great!

Really well done, super nice work!

Just one thing: is it possible to remove the shadow in that dropdown button row?

Might look much better ;)

Thanks alot for that masterpiece!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] xenomorph150:
I think I got an weird bug:

I normally use my phone all day, let it drain to about 10-30% and recharge it over night in flightmode. Problem starts by pluging in power supply: As soon as I got it in, Touchscreen starts acting weird / plays all around but not what I want to click it. On removing power its working normally again - mostly. After reboot its ok. I think its because of the runtime / uptime of the phone mh... strange
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 4tticuz:
For me it's not possible to get rid of the calender problem by using the calendar.apk vom HO!NO! or CM7, do you have any idea?

Thank!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] motorator:
The hypersensitive touchscreen while plugged in to wall charger is a common issue. It normally goes away after a few charges; somehow the MS needs time to get "used to" the voltages before behaving again.

More an issue with third-party chargers but can happen with the stock charger also.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] thedoginthewok:
Thank you, 89luca89, once again.

In my opinion FroyoMOD is the best Rom available for our Milestone. You've done some excellent work with this Rom.

Yeah, and about that bug, this Rom had:

If you use the energy widget in the notification area, this bug doesn't exist anymore. It only occurs, if you use the widget on your homescreen.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] xenomorph150:
Oh, thank you very much.

I do use an third-party charger from time to time, is that an problem itself? Anything happend by doing that? Thank you! ^^
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] centroi:
one problem, the A-gps doesn't work (assisted by network) un 2.1 I got satellite signal in a few seconds (3-5 seconds) now, it takes a few minutes (2-3 minutes) to get signal, like a no-assisted gps

this is normal?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 4tticuz:
Where is the link to the STOCK-BLACK THEME? :O

Would be really great to have that one on my stoney...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] motorator:
I don't believe doing so will actually damage the Milestone, as long as you don't use an off-brand or knock-off charger.

My MS gets charged with a variety of chargers: stock, HTC, BlackBerry, USB, Jabra, etc.

Knock on wood, it's still OK :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] m0jo:
Since every USB Port has the same frequency and all, you could propably use everything that is meant to charge something via an USB cable.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] xenomorph150:
Thank you two very much!

Another question, maybe I'm blind,

but could it be that the OTA (Over The Air) Update functions isn't there anymore?

I really would like to see wheter theres an new rom supplied by my Mobile Network mh.. o.o...

Thanks ^^

Can this be installed using ADB recovery and Nandroid ? I am a noob to this , so wanted to clarify it :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] huzi7868:
is this rom already overclocked coz my pocket legends is not smooth and also how to overclock and best settings thanks for the advice
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 4tticuz:
Found in 1st post...

I think, ppl became too lazy since Android & Co.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] huzi7868:
anyone overclocked this rom and at what settings:D my phone is lagging even got no games on any tweaks any help
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] virus_spreade121:
I put the downloaded files in the nandroid backup folder , and then rebooted using Open Recovery 1.14 created by skrilax_CZ

And then chose nandroid restore and selected the most recent backup made. And then after a minute it gave an error saying

"Error : md5sum mismatch , aborting

Done. "

Whats with the error now?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] motorator:
The error is that the file is an update .zip, not a nandroid.

Also, luca specifies Androidiani 3.3 OR.

Do not extract the file's contents. Put the zip file in /openrecovery/updates.

In OR, choose Apply Update and select FroyoMod2.5.0.

Be sure to wipe Data/Dalvik/Cache.

Maybe you guys should invest more than 2 minutes to get a new ROM!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Lleviathan:
screen oddities with 2.5

So, version 2.5 of this rom was my first non-stock rom. And I must say, the speed improvements are substantial!

However, I am occasionally having a problem where the colours on my screen will go all crazy, like someone cranked the contrast really far (all yellow/red) and it becomes dimmer. Simply turning off the screen and turning it back on fixes the problem, but I wonder if it is related to the overclocking/undervolting this rom uses? I tried using the overclock menu in Openrecovery 3.3 to change to a more conservative overclock, but the problem persists. I also feel like my battery is running a little hotter than before, but so far battery life seems pretty good.

Has anyone else had that issue?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] virus_spreade121:
Yeah I just read that Part and it also states this " I RECOMMEND THE ANDROIDIANI OR BY ME AND AZHAD (v3.3 or MORE), OR THE OpenRecovery BY SKRILAX_CZ! "

And I am using Open Recovery by Skrilax_CZ

I got the step now , Trying it out now . So lets see if it happens , Will Post later :) Thank you :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] virus_spreade121:
There is already a test-update.zip file in Openrecovery/update folder. Am I suppose to delete this ?

I have 4 files in the Froyo MOD that is Meta-INF ,system , boot , bpsw . I should just copy the files and put it in the update folder without making any zip file?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] xenomorph150:
Sorry, I did but did not come to any result o.o...

status bar power app and smooth ui?

hey, i got this rom on my phone but feel it drains battery faster than others, hence have switched to other.

However, I do love the ability to change power settings, switch 3g / wifi / gps etc on or off from the status bar - what is the name of this app which allows this?

Also, is it launcher pro which gives the ui a smooth scrolling effect?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 4tticuz:
Calibrate your phone and you'll notice that battery life is much better as accepted!

I'm running thiy MOD with LP and it runs super smooth and fast, best opinion i guess!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] dorol:
Last 3 times ive charged my battery from pc usb and noticed that overnight battery drain is around 10% .Before doin this was around 25-30% charging from wall. Now my battery last 2-3 days.

So i think maybe is a kernek bug or something when u charge from wall charger.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] virus_spreade121:
Done installing the ROM. Loving it so far , loved the notification tray which gives you more options :) Its pretty fast and smooth scrolling . Might install root capabilities in sometime.

Thanks again :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] motorator:
Good to hear you've managed to flash it.

ROM is already rooted, look in your app drawer and you'll see the Superuser apk.

Sent from my Milestone
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] virus_spreade121:
I have a problem now . I successfully installed the froyo Mod , and I wanted to restore my earlier data files.

So I transfered the nandroid backup folder > Sd Card > nandroid > adbrecovery > Name of my backup ( Latest )

And then I rebooted using Open Recovery and clicked on Nandroid Restore and selected the folder . And it restored , but after restoring , it restored to the earlier 2.1 Eclair rom which I had and not to the Froyod mod.

Whats wrong ? How do i restore the files ?

Where am I going wrong?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] xenosapien213:
i am experiencing two very strange bugs :

1) I like to turn my Media volume down to 0. I did this in QuickSettings, and I checked in native/FroyoMod settings that it is indeed set at zero.

But I still sometimes hear "white noise" out of the phone speakers when the game/the app is trying to play a sound.

I can reproduce this with "androidify " and "pocket legends ".

2) (I cannot read any more QR codes)

CORRECTION

: i can read SOME qr-codes, and it the camera recognizes them a LOT slower, maybe because of some of the tweak you made? isn´t this the camera-app from 2.0? so could i fix this by switching it to the camera app from 2.1?

Tested both the "Barcode reader " and "barcoo " app. Both are working on 2. 1 and APAC.

any suggestions on how to fix these would be greatly appreciated!

:)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] dorol:
Nandroid is doin backups of roms+applications.

U must use something like Titanium Backup for backup installed apps before u install new rom
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] virus_spreade121:
Thanks buddy , but as of now I lost all my pictures and music and stuffs because I thought nandroid would do a complete backup :( My fault .

Between I would like few changes in the next update :)

A colourful Messaging window , something more like Handcent .

And an attractive call Dialer , coz the default one looks boring as its just plain black :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] m0jo:
LPs kill my phone's performance. Wich launcher are you using?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 4tticuz:
Earnestly?!

For me LP runs just great, if you're running another launcher, which seems to be even better in your opinon, don't let me beg ;)

I'm using launcherPro 0.8.3 (not Plus), I didnt change anything in the overclock. I made permisson fix and zipalign after setting up my stone.

No memhack, just "keep lp in memory" in LP settings.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] m0jo:
Im currently using Go Launcher. I was using LauncherPro aswell, but when opening the app drawer is began to lag. Same with every other launcher i tried.

So there is absolutely no decrease in performance for you?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 4tticuz:
I was really happy with that setup, but you let me doubt LP's skills now!

This is way I'll test Go Launcher EX next hours and let you know what going on.

If Go Launcher EX really runs faster/better/smoother,...

I dont know what I'll do! Smiling all night long I guess!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] m0jo:
Stop stop! With LP you mean launcherpro? I thought you meant livewallpapers :/ launcherpro runs smooth for me aswell, its the livewallpapers that lag down my phone.. sorry for the confusion :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 4tticuz:
OMG, excuse me for starting that confusion :D

BUT!!! Now Im using Go Launcher EX, damn such a nice launcher!

Will use this one for some time to check drain etc.

Compared to LP (LauncherPro ;) ) is Go Launcher worse than LP?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] bikinibottom100:
Hey what do you mean by 'calibrate'? is there an app to do this?

Also, what is the app which adds the power settings switcher in the notifications bar?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] phoenix1511:
This is a great ROM...

Just a minor problem, I just wondering is anybody experinecing the problem I have? My answer phone slider a little off the screen, so only half of it appear on screen. I had 2.4c before, and it didn't occur.

Anyway... thanks for developing this ROM :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 4tticuz:
No, there is no app. Its the way of charging! Ive found a nice posting, it really helps!

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11514494&postcount=624

Im not sure, but the notibar hotkeys should be in the "FroyoMODExtras.apk"...

Try to delete it and youll see ;)

Simply: No!

On my stone everything is fine, no probs with the phone. Maybe a dalvik/partition wipe will help. On the other hand, did you fullwipe before updating?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Slaapje:
First of all, great ROM i'm loving it!

But i do have a minor (major) problem, i can't seem to install any app from the market. Every installation is getting the same message, packet is corrupt installation aborted. I've upgraded from 2.4.0.c and only wiped my dalvik.

Can anyone tell me how to fix this?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 4tticuz:
Strange!

To ensure that everything is fine, I fullwipe my phone always.

That prevents errors like that.

Sorry, no other idea...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Joolee:
Experiencing the same problem.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Something can possibly happen.

That ghosting problem....

I have a few of chargers around the house.

The touch screen acts all stupid when if I use the blackberry charger.

It's fine if I use the Motorola ones.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Joolee:
What is btw the status of the Honeycomb theme? I'm really looking forward to that :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dogtag:
Dude, im using barcode scanner (mp) no problems what so ever. everything works fine.

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Dogtag:
Do you use foryomod?, (if not http://androidforums.com/incredible-all-things-root/114682-how-calibrate-your-battery.html)

If u use Froyomod 2.5 go to settings-> froyomod extra settings-> extra settings-> cal. batt & wipe batt. status.)

Hi all mans!

Thanks to all for the reportings, thanks to all of you, the Rom will grow stronger and become a real FINAL build...

I will replay to ALL the bugs, from Monday, cause I have exhams and for now, the University is still more important than the phone LOL xD

Bye to all!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Ralf_g60:
Hi,

This is a great rom!

I just have one big problem,

The phone doesn't always ring on incoming calls?

Didn't change cpu settings.

I see a missed call, but never heard it ring...

Maybe the phone keeps sleeping?

Using "droid incoming call" ringtone,

Just set another ringtone, maybe that will help...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ravram:
Happens to me also, not only for incoming calls but also for SMS messages
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] thehaunted:
Respect Luca and good luck on the exams!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] xenomorph150:
Thank you for all your hard work and good luck on the exams!! ^-^
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
I got a new alpha to test out just now... it's for CM612 though.

But it might work for FMod since I was able to use FMod 2.4 themes on the current CM612.

If not, it would be an easy port with Theme Porter.

GOOD LUCK!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Joolee:
Tried doing this a few days ago but now I can't turn on wifi, gps or bluetooth anymore (just automaticly turns off again) Don't know where it went wrong and restoring doesn't help either. Just used terminal emulator to move a modefied file from my sd card to the settings.db location and rebooted.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Not Really Zeppe, in involves some xml edits too. So transerring png's alone won't suffice.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Oh yeah, I forgot about the text colours...

As an example, you can end up with black text on a black background in pop open menus.

I've done that before... LOL

But then I cheated and used a gingerbread theme as a starting point :P
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
You are a smart fellow, Zeppe. :)

But not only that, there are a few more edits needed for the honeycomb theme.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Thanks :) It goes without saying that you are as well.

But yeah, honeycomb has some pretty funky colours that sets it apart from most themes, indeed.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] xenosapien213:
@Joolene: glad to see I'm not the only one with that "white noise" bug.

it's really just a minor flaw, let's see what luca can do about it.

@dogtag:

thanks for the reply man, after that I tried again and found out that I simply had a big smudge across my camera lens ^^ that made the pics blurry... so embarrassed!

but the camera/barcode scanner still doesnt recognize them very fast if you ask me.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kotamax:
did u check the permission of the modified file?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] xenosapien213:
okay, so with the camera-"bug" sorted out and explained due to my own stupidity (tip: clean camera-lens every now and then ^^), I still have 2 problems with this ROM - yes, ONLY two!!

-> "white noise" - bug, even though media-volume is at 0, some apps (androidify, pocket legends for example) will create some sort of radio noise through the speaker when trying to play sounds -> phone is not COMPLETELY silent

-> no word predictions when using hardware-keyboard using the included gingerbread input-method. and no german either.

I tried switching out the included keyboard with some provided here and in other threads, but I could not get word predictions (in german) to work RELIABLY when using the hardware keyboard in landscape mode...

(of course I tried all possible settings combinations with the input method and device keyboard.)

seemed to work with APAC leak and the "froyo" keyboard, but when I tried to move that over to the FroyoMOD, the keyboard simply DISAPPEARS! O_ô
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Sorensonn:
Great rom, after trying whole bunch of cm7 based ones I settled with this mod. There is only one bug that bothers me: when the screen is set to stay on while battery is charging, after some time the backlight fades to minimum, and anything is barely visible on the screen. Even adjusting backlight in apps like gentle alarm and turning off automatic baclikght in prefs doesn't help, it soon fades to minimum. Is there any solution to this?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] CrazyPhil:
Edit: hxxp://dext3r.komodin.org/ (At the bottom there is an update that does the trick).

Hello,

I finished installing it but have been unable to connect to a network or even find on in searches. My provider is TELUS.

Though I can see a TELUS access point...neither data or voice will connect to a network.

Any ideas?

3d games

Hi,

I want to try froyomod.

I am on Cronos 1.7.1 . Can I flash just this rom via update in recovery?

I just use the last update?

How do 3d games run on this rom?

Eric
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
Hi man!

You have to install the TELUS baseband! :D

Hope you enjoy!

I recommend a full Data wipe as the Rom are very different (if you can go from cronos to CM without wipe, on this you cannot as its NOT based on Cyanogen!)

@ALL

In Monday I'll have my university exham and them my 6th grade Piano Exham so I'll be very busy!

But i'm working a little for now (and heavier later xD) on the 2.6, I'll redo from scratch the memory managment to avoid the missed calls, then I'll try to encache the camera software and quality, expecially the camcorder, and fix the bugs you've feedback to me!

And thanks to bar1310 & liron_69 I plan to provide a Hebrew support for the FINAL version!

Also I'll provide a theme manager (I Hope) like the one in Telus's MyTouch4g and like the new CM7 handles the themes, so you'll be able to change the theme on the fly! (SO All the themes now will be included in stock rom and you choose on the fly xD)

Regards.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] m0jo:
Thats great!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] CrazyPhil:
Works great so far! Super fast vs stock 2.1

Just a note: Was the icon in the status bar for active call always a download icon? (I don't remember).

Thanks,

I have this ROM installed and wanted to load a new bootanimation for the cellphone , and then I used rootexplorer to go to the data/local folder and to my surprise , there was no bootanimation.zip file.

How am i suppose to load the boot file then ?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Ph0z3:
Just drop the boot animation you want on the root of the card, then use the Gscipts in the settings menu to swap it...

or

download this:

http://www.appbrain.com/app/absolute-system-root-tools/com.canvs2321.absolute.system

It has 100's of Animations and you can swap your fonts as well.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] motorator:
Bootanimation.zip is located in /system/media
