Most people here did not need to wipe data when going for the 2.6.1 update.

I personally had to though. As I was getting bootlooped. And I think I know the cause, when I applied the sdcard speed hack ZIPs, I think it changed something in the phone file system that is not being overwritten by FroyoMod, so it was causing a bootloop on a new flash.

(I found that out after flashing another sd card speed hack zip. So I might need to do another clean wipe on the next ROM update. :p)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] James91:
Perhaps u can try to increase the vm heap siz to 40/48 mb

3d games like NFS will perform better, at least less reboots will occur

Making the taskkiller aggressive is useless.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Zarrick19:
Hi there, everything works fine but I have got (again :rolleyes:) a little problem ...

After adding those overclock1100.sh and 71_overclock1100.sh, I have problem to boot up. The Moto logo is just looping. Wipe caches doesnt help, only reflash the ROM. How do I delete those applyed scripts ? Just deleting them from the scripts folder ? Yeah, and also in the Milestone overclock, setting any frequency, the phone reboots (i think just soft). Pls help me fast, pls :(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] moviecut:
@Zarrick19: no, of course it is not just deleting the script files...where are these scripts from?? i think they are incompatible with froyomod so DONT install scripts which you dont know. i think they are for the G.O.T-Release...did you make a nandroid before?

for overclocking just edit the 10_overclock-file under /system/etc/init.d with root explorer or something like that....
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Zarrick19:
I think I find them in this thread ... I"ve make nandroid backup but its oooold, I make before my first custom ROM flash ...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Zarrick19:
Anyways, what to restore in nandroid when I have got this OC problem ?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] framir:
Thanks, now i try.

With VM 40 game go better also even JIT?

Bye
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] silencer51:
An observation:

I have flashed from 2.5 to 2.6 and again to 2.6.1b without a full wipe, just cache and dalvik wipes

The rom has been working great so far but the last few days I am seeing weird slowdowns. LauncherPro FCs more often.

I read that bulletproofing the launcher is not recommended by luca.. So I removed the launcher bulletproof command from the init script.. And now things are even worse, sometimes the launcher will not even redraw, leaving me with a blank background.

Has anyone encountered this?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Try the new v5 gscipt.

It will fix alot of things.

Maybe even gps. That would be something.

Launcher is priority 2 now but still bulletproofed because it will be the only app in slot 2.

If you want launcher to be priority 0, that is a separate script now.

But enabling lock home in memory after using the new scripts will make it a foreground app so do that first before making the launcher 0.

Also, the memory management is too aggressive for multitaskers with values of 6 8 20 35 45 and 55.

Its better to try balanced 3 for speed with multitasking.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
Hi :D

About the GPS it's not a memory problem, but a code injection that I'm resolving THANKS TO KABALDAN :D

About memory, you clearly are doing a great job with the oom_kller, so I was asking if you want, to create a profile specifically for FroyoMOD, I mean a medium profile without bullettproofing, but that can let people play also big games :D

If you're interested or just want answer just PM me :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Yes for sure!

I was kidding about memory and GPS because somebody is getting amazing results with playing games when it was a problem before. hehe
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
It actually can fix GPS because GPS apps are hungry for memory and most likely will crash on Milestone :).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Joolee:
Like the google maps chrashes that are occuring when there's not enough memory free.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] framir:
I could found a right set, now i can play big game, gmaps works, the phone is very very fast in all application and i haven't FC! For now... :p

1. I set VM Heap size 48

2. I disabled JIT

3. I choose agressive2 from zeppelinrox's memory script

4. I installed Launcher pro and i set it with low memory.

5. For GPS i configure as this tweek.

After i will try also balanced setting form memory... :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] salisbury_steak:
Thanks for the suggestion framir. The GPS thread you gave looks promising. Will try out the fix later tonight.

So do you apply the GPS zip as an update?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] framir:
Right!

Or with rootexplorer you can unzip the file then you copy and over write GPS.conf in /system/etc. Remember to set permission as the original file! :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] puffo81:
I tried that fix some time ago, but it didn't work in my case.. if it works for you, let me know!

I set VM to 40m, disabled JIT and installed an EXT2 partition.. everything works perfectly but the GPS!

When we'll be able to fix it, I think we'll have the best ROM out here..

We trust in you Luca! =)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] TheSgrash:
hi luca

i'm on froyomod 2.6 and i'm using sileshn' script for apps2ext...

if i don't touch my ext2 partition, will the new rom version recognize automatically all installed apps?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Yes. Just apply froyoMod. Dont apply any other apps2ext script.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] TheSgrash:
perfect... thanks
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] James91:
As jit would consume some ram, i would rather turn it off.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] indiacam:
@luca, it always depends on how you look at things happen around you. I never said anyone do not flash this rom or whatever you mentioned. I am happy at least now you are motivated and trying hard to resolve this serious bad gps problem in this rom. One must have a habit of listening to criticism alongwith praises too. So hope you dont take things put by users in wrong way. You believe or not, rest of us are not only users, but testers where risk involves, else we would not flash our roms so many times in a week or sometimes several times in a day. It needs some courage to flash such unofficial roms in such a costly device and no one will deny that. I have seen many users who got bricked thier devices with issues in unofficial roms. No doubt you are genius, please show some respect to visitors of this forum too.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
obviously there is some missunderstanding, as I Always have respect, If I sounded un-respectable, I'm sorry, the meaning was another, just an exhortation to respect the work of many hours, but probably the missunderstanding started from the moment I saw your post as I described...so, if there wasn't any bad (but just a report) ok, I missunderstood!

@ALL

Right now, I'm testing the fixes By KABALDAN, will also confront with official 2.2 and CM6 to see if the lock-times are similar, for now, first lock without AGPS, took 50secs , with aGPS, after a FULL wipe (so another time the FIRST LOCK) took about 30/35 sec to have a lock ( for lock I mean not the radio-triangulation that giver you a range of 2/3km, but a real lock with at least 100m of range!)

If anyone with other rom can say me if the times are normal FOR FIRST LOCK, it wuould be great!

Remember it have to be the FIRST lock, as the others are instantaneous already to me!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] indiacam:
all misunderstanding from both of us are over. lets both get busy with our work in this forum. kindly keep it up with your great work. and may god bless you for putting life into stone...i mean milestone.

Lets hug now. ***is there any icon for virtual hugging?:D***

EDIT: No disturbance from my side...guaranteed.

I will drink a beer for you to make peace ahahah xD

btw...there is some serious discussion going on in this link

seems these settings in location.cfg are working for some

DL_LCS_SUPL_SECURITY_ON = 0

hslp_address = supl.google.com:7276

default_hslp_address = supl.google.com:7276

Also there are some posts advising to keep hslp_address blank with no value.

hslp_address=

worth looking at least once...sorry you may know all this and might have tried too....just thought to put here. old post but might be helpful.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
The GPS iussue is Officially resolved :D

Thanks to KABALDAN I can finally had a

FIRST LOCK, with aGPS, LESS THAN 15 SECONDS!

First lock WITHOUT aGPS in like 30/40 SECONDS!

Finally :D :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vlad.obada:
@ 89luca89

Hooray !

I bet a LOT of ppl are waiting for you to update the download section.

Thank you for investing so much time & energy into making this a beautiful ROM.

I would kiss you if I could.

PS: so .. when will we get the update? :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] s0ulreaver:
+1 except the kiss part

or you know what? hugs fly your way, Luca
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] salisbury_steak:
Congratulations in ironing out the GPS issues Luca!

May you look into the late EXT2 mounting issues and the CPU stat issues as well?

And just to report, I tried other themes from the 4shared last night, and I was getting file download corrupt errors on alot of 'em.

Gingerbread << ok (reflashed last night and using it right now. I changed the animation res and the sys_static_headset png after the download. :D)

Blackdroid << corrupted archive

rEVOlution << corrupted archive

SimpleBlack << corrupted archive

DroidX << corrupted archive

BuglessRevolution << corrupted archive

Hi there!

I'm still running 2.5, with sileshn Gingerbread Theme and the overclock file that has been posted here 20 sites ago or so - I'm now up for over 206 hours, not a single reboot. Seriously, I LOVE IT! ^-^. Thank you lucca for this awesome rom, I think I will switch to the bleeding edge again on the next revision ^^.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] joyo22:
Thanks Luca. Could you tell us when we'll see those changes in our phones? I'm a happy FroyoMod user since November.2010.

Thanks again!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] indiacam:
Sorry, but can you please keep this on hold for some days, until the gps fix gets working? May be I am wrong but according to me this is not a right time to ask for theme related issue, which is always optional and will always be a secondary issue. He have mentioned that in his test gps is solved but please let him take his own time to build the rom, test it and release it. Let us all test also and report further bugs if any. Themes can wait against the gps issue which is actually a hardware issue. Kindly let luca concentrate on his current priority. Hope you understand and dont kick my ass for this request. I am concerned about this rom and want it to be perfect as soon as possible.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] indiacam:
yes finally, i am happy. how you are gonna release it? As a fix update file or consolidate into updated version?...something like 2.6.1c? hope it works for all. god bless you.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] puffo81:
YEAH!!!

Luca + Kabaldan = WIN!!! :cool:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] salisbury_steak:

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vlad.obada:
Well, I`m using it on 2.6.1b and I have no issue so far.

Give it a try.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] salisbury_steak:
Got to try out the GPS tweak above for a couple of days. And I've got good news and bad news:

Good news = My stone seems to be able to see more satellites quickly now. Getting 4 to 8 satellites pretty well when outside.

Bad news = It doesn't seem to improve GPS lock speed.

Will wait for the fixes from Luca to arrive then.

@vlad: Cool. Thanks, I'll flash the theme tomorrow. Currently, I'm enjoying the modified Gingerbread theme that I flashed earlier. :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] noidtrue:
Thanks a lot for the theme. Will give it a try.

Hey Luca,

Is there any way to turn off holding the 'back' button to kills app option? Or at the very least, change the amount of time you need to hold the button down for? I keep unintentionally killing apps while going back.

It's a feature in all Froyo ROMs I believe. Just go here:

settings >> applications >> development >> stop app via long press >> disable that

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vlad.obada:
I know how you feel. I, myself, am checking this thread like at least 5 times a day.

But give luca time to finish the job. Besides, the man must have a real life also, things to take care of & such.

I don`t mind to wait a couple of days for luca to release the update considering that this job was suppose to be Moto`s -- who royally screwed us up from the beginning.

auto reboot after receiving sms

I've been using 2.6.1b for a couple of days, and i found that my phone will auto reboot after receiving sms. (happened twice so far.)

my default sms software is handset sms. Does anyone happen to have the same problem?:confused:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Die Bruine:
Bluetooth

I also found something in 2.6.1b. When I try to access my contacts via BT the phone service crashes and I have to enter my PIN again. After that I have to disconnect and reconnect BT again to make a connection. Accessing my contacts would be nice, but I can always just use the phone if it doesn't work.

BTW, is there a way to partition and create an EXTx using a recovery? I tried console in Androidani but that one doesn't know gparted. Mind you though my Li/Unix skills are close to worthless...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] tisungho:
This is the first time I use this rom. I've used it for 2 days. So far so good. The performance is fantastic. Battery is good (60% left after 1 day). No reboot. However, GPS doesn't seem to work. I also tried to fix it in FroyoMod Extra and also some workarounds in this forum. It detected my location only once, then it still doesn't work for the next times.

It will be the best ROM for milestone if GPS is sorted out. Please fix annoying GPS issue!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] s0ulreaver:
If you read a few pages back, Luca wrote the next rom will include a fix for the GPS and it will be fixed for good this time.

Just a little patience.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] joyo22:
Well, GPS seems to work fine in my phone. It takes a little longer than normal to get a fix, but it's really stable and accurate when it does. Hope the fix improves the GPS system for everyone.

Hello all guys :-) This weekend Was a valuable test of reliability, battery, and general fluency:

Overclocking 1ghz, automatic brightness, 40 minutes offline browsing (navigon), 150 sms sent / received, a dozen calls, 20 GPS fixes with gpstests at various places in Rome and many other cities to test the gps .... all offline with no internet connection:

20% in 2d, 15h, 46min :-)

Also in GPS Fix with AGPS at cold, after 4 / 5 seconds fixes almost anywhere

without AGPS fix at cold on average between 30 and 40 seconds. with 8 / 9 satellites seen almost immediately ...

I am very pleased, I'm solving the last things and looking for some optimization, the next release will virtually ve pre_final: D Now I take the train tomorrow ill tell further updates!

I flashed the new rom without an theme update for revoltution. I got a bootloop.

I tryed to update the new revolution theme but theres an error (when i update theme it begins and stop with a (bad) request and stops), if i try to update this theme by openrecovery. Before this new froyo flash everything was fine.

Now i use the new honeycomb theme and it works.

Would be great to use the revolution theme.

Any Help?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] indiacam:
OMG. Does that mean you are travelling from city to city to test gps satlock results? Now thats amazing...i think no one did this before.

Train is cool place to show off your milestone. You cant do that in bus, as the busride is more bumpy and you cannot catch attention of other passengers with you. he he he. kidding....

Definitly WRONG.

I got my "DRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROID!" Message Sound on fcuknig loud (I love it soo much!) and that thing ALWAYS does catch attention.

Upgraded to 2.61b for few days . The ROMS is fast and smooth , if the system don't freeze .

I found that when the music player is running , the system will be very easy to become unstable . Especially when I turn on the Google Map while the music player running .

And , sometimes the music skips , but it seems won't happen in the previous versions . Is it related to the SD card ? I don't know , but it used to work very well .

Anyway , thanks very much for developing this ROM , can't wait for the next release with fully functional GPS ... :)

I get the same error if I try to run the script for the phone mode switch.

Please help! Thanks in advance
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] puffo81:
That's strange.. you can try to restore the phone app with Root Explorer directly in system/app directory, or if it doesn't work, reflash tha ROM over the existent one (without wiping), it should work!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Lapiduss:
Try to reinstall the update with the latest froyomod, it should restore it..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] s0ulreaver:
Reflashing over didn't work.

Copied the files phone.apk and phone.apk.1 to /system/app and it resolved the issue

I know now what happened. I ran out of space before/while running the script.

REQUEST:

This is the official 2.2.1 Arabic-support ROM. Could we integrate RTL support and Arabic from that ROM? Response PLEASE?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1036741

What are the files WE/I can copy/paste/replace from this to the current build of Froyomod?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
FROYOMOD is AOSP. Just copying some files from stock moto sbf into this rom is not going to give you Arabic support.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] bandroid842:
@SILESHN and @KABALDANL Official 2.2.1 is stock as you know, so I don't think that would contradict severely AOSP code. If you, for example, replace the libwebcore.so file in froyomod with one from the official sbf, it gives you Arabic in browser and gmail, but not proper RTL. How do we fix that remaining RTL thing?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] lalit79:
for RTL u need to patch framework.jar and libandroid_runtime.so along with the libwebcore.so that u mentioned...

i am not sure just copying the framework.jar from the AOSP code will work...but hey u can try it out and let us know the results ;)
