Today, I tried again. I was at stock and did a full wipe and install froyomod again. The first thing I usually do is go to console, system and media and delete the annoying droid mp3 and bootanimation. Tried going there and found a lot of garbage entries there (?!?! do I have a faulty flash on this MS??).

Then I went for full wipe > GOT 2.2.1 (with rsd) > froyomod.

Things were working just fine until the first reboot. Now it's stuck again in the reboot loop. Tried wipe dalvik first. Nothing. Cache second, nothing. Full wipe next. Starts booting and boots up. Arrgh.

I must say I encountered issues when playing around with app2sd, it said it was unable to move apps to sd. Could this be some sort of culprit? I don't know what to do next. Will try to install SW very gently :S
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] pherin:
Could you please explain how the bootanimation and droid sound can be removed? Tried to delete it as su in terminal emulator but it says it's a read only filesystem :/
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
just do "mountrw" before doing this!

It's really strange, do the following (to troubleshoot)

Format the SD Card (you can backup all that have not to do with Android so music photos videos it's ok)

Wipe data/cache/dalvik

DO NOT USE APP2EXT (i did not tested it so I cannot tell if it works)

Restore ONLY Sms

REMOVE THE OVERCLOCK (Before flashing from the zip in /system/etc/init.d)

RE-DONWLOAD the rom

let me know!

@ALL

IF YOU DO NOT LIKE THE BOOT JUST SWAP IT WITH THE FROYOMOD EXTRAS! :P

I'M ALSO SEARCHING ANYONE ABLE TO CREATE A FROYOMOD BOOTAnIMATION!

WOULD BE GREAT :D

Before Sunday 2.5 pre-FINAL will be there!

Still working on a couple of things in lockscreen!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] andreju:
You have to mount the filesystem RW. Easiest option: use Root Explorer. Other easy option: Open Androidiani and open console. You have default RW there.

@Luca, thanks for the hints, will try. But I think I could have an issue with the phone itself. I have just tried to nandroid back to the old setup (eclair and everything). Nothing, still stuck at boot animation. Flashed the default Eclair ROM. Still stuck. Tried again wiping everything. Nothing. I'm giving up slowly for today and hopefully I have a new idea tomorrow, otherwise the phone must go to the service. Btw, what do I have to do to clear trace of me playing with it? Is the default ROM enough, if I remove the SD Card?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] pherin:
Worked, thanks :)

Just something i noticed: right after startup the Email app force closes (com.android.email). Happens ~twice on startup, after that no further messages
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] nintendere:
Can anybody help me?

I Liked the DROID Bootanimation.

Can you upload it for me for froyoMOD 2.4.0C please?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] tase25:
After updating to V2.4.0c ROM, my phone restarts on its own once in a while. I'd say 2-3x a week. Usually after I send a text message or gmail msg. Any ideas why?

Also, what's up with the dancing banana on load screen? What happened to the cool Droid eye?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
Droid2.zip

here you go!

This is due to some kernel panic...it's a motorola's fault that have a buggy kernel...I cannot do anything...

for bootanimation see this post for the download

@ALL

If you do not like bananas (Lol) just go in the EclairMOD thread or browse my 4shared folder (the one you see with http://www.4shared.com/account/dir/iwhoA1dw/sharing.html?rnd=69 this link) and download the one you prefer
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] m0jo:
When holding down the back button, my MS restarts. I think i once saw an option that said "Hold back button to end application". I assume it is caused by this. Where can i find this option? ty! Option was disabled, so this cant be responsible for the reboot..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] be0ne:
Honeycomb theme for FroyoMOD please

@ 89luca89 : I was seduced by the Honeycomb Theme but I don't want to go back to CM. Do you think you would have the time to port the theme or explain me how to do so ? Thx :D

.:EDIT:.

Added a link to the theme
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] selbaer:
Even if i agree that it sounds like an issue with the phone/flash (garbage entries), i would highly admit that you try it with another SD-Card.

Another option could be to strip the nandroid img files to allow the phone the dead NAND cells reallocation. But therefore you have to use hexedit or similar and if you still have warrenty i would give it to the service instead of this.

And yes, flashing stock ROM via rsd will clear the traces (as far as possible at least)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
obviously was already tring to port it :D

It's beautiful on my HD2! xD
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] andreju:
Tried with another SD Card, no difference. Tried stock flash via RSD. No difference. Moto Service, here I come here I go...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] be0ne:
Honeycomb flavor, oh yeah

That's a great news :D

I guess I'd have to change my MadMen home theme to match the theme's color but I'll find something xD
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] tase25:
Hi, thanks for the link to the file, but where do I put this on my phone? Do I unzip it?

Sorry, still a newb at this.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] be0ne:
Just copy the bootanimation.zip file in the folder system/media/ to replace the existing one and reboot ;)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
or just put the bootanimazion.zip in the root of sdcard and use the option in froyomod extras> extra setting> switch bootanimation!

It's here for this! xD
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] selbaer:
One day you loose, next day another wins. ;) . But it was def. worth a try, as the SD can cause really strange troubles. Hope you have still warrenty.

Anyway im curious how many devices will have trouble when they get older due to extreme flashing cycles of some people, including me :)

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] difontane:
Hi guys. Please, teach me how I can change back gingerbread theme to default theme?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
just reapply original ZIP, and you've done!

@ALL

2.5 is ready, and fasssst :D I've managed to tweak a lot memory and have very good results, that ported me to decide to low the overclock (with all greetings of the battery xD)

I'm just now rebuilding the themes and porting new one...they are at least 13 now, so I have a little time to work xD

Tomorrow I'll release the whole pack of themes+ROM! (obv if i finish before, I'll release it when finished :D)

oh and btw all graphical glitches (in the phone sliders) in some app are defeated, I've tried to weld ALL the bugs!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] JCeppli:
If i"ll change to 2.5

Need wipes?

Thanks.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] motorator:
Awesome news, luca!

2.4 is already working super on my phone, can't wait to see how you're making it even better.

One thing, is Crystal Talk available on both phone APKs, or just one?

When I switch to PhoneMod (with all the extra settings, eg silence on flip, etc.), Crystal Talk setting is not available?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] goldrain:
another link also cannot

I tried this link:

ftp://thuis.niksie.nl/

USER : xda

Password : xda2011

Limited to 850KB/S

but also cannot connect.

are there any other links?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] nnkk:
Installed yesterday and enjoying it, excellent job

2 glitches only

gps works with problems, locking 1 out of 3 times only

tried Fasterfix, /data/location/ delete etc

also Wifi signal seems to be weak or it's an error in the reading of it's state by the kernel
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] be0ne:
@ Luca : Each new version is faster and faster, I can't wait to see the 2.5 :D

And thanks again for porting the honeycomb theme, this is a guaranteed success !

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] thedoginthewok:
89luca89 can we expect GingerMOD for Milestone from you ? :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
Quoting Myself...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] nnkk:
too bad you have to data wipe/factory reset for the new version, I don't have the time to reconfigure my phone, switched back to previous one.

Is there a way to install without reseting ?

thanks again
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
why to wipe?

No wipe needed, only cache/dalvik...

obv only if you come already from a FroyoMOD
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] nnkk:
updating from froyomod 2.4c

clear dalvhic and cache

apply update

stuck in the animation logo
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
that's quite strange?

As if it's stuck at M logo, I can understand a wipe needed, but for bootanimation...mmmh

try to delete the overclock file in /system/etc/init.d and see if boots...seems really strange as I and some other user, update from 2.4c and goes well..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] nnkk:
I wiped data and it boots up normally, I'll try deleting the overclock file and I'll be back to you.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] nnkk:
I've deleted the 10overclock file but again no luck.

The animation plays for about 20 secs and then freezes.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] nnkk:
fiew it's alive, after 2 reboots of it's own

If I'm not mistaken I don't have overclock now, am I correct ?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] nnkk:
hmm

too many phone freezes, about 8 times so far had to remove battery, very strange.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] fggarcia:
The best rom. Nothing reboot. Thx lucas. Incredible the notification bar.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
So the flashlight widget works now?

I know it sounds stupid but I had this ROM installed a bit ago but took it off mainly because I really like having the flashlight widget on the notification bar.

But if I remember correctly, I did have apps2ext working with this ROM :D

I may just try this out again since CM 6.1.2 has hit a stand still...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zuli007:
Luca, there is enough memory so why browser closing itself when go to desktop version od pocketnow.com ? It s normal for froyo rom, on ginger is ok. Where is problem?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
Yes in notificaton power widget, the flash led works flawlessy :D

If you had app2ext working can you provide me the modificaiton you added?

I want to make an automatized package for the rom

I can see pocketnow.com (desktop version) normally (a bit slow but ok)

maybe you have something using memory? Voice controls? (the one of motorola)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Oh nice...

As far as modifications, I didn't make any.

I used the apps2sd_full.zip from this post and just put it in the update folder.

I may have had to manually create the sd folder in the system folder. (ie. system/sd)

I may be misremembering if I did have it working but but why wouldn't it work?

It works on the latest Moto/APAC leak.

I was even able to use your 2.4c revolution theme on the latest cm612 without modification :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kenshinta:
Hello, I have been consistently getting black screens - ie, phone lags a bit doing normal things on the phone, then the screen turns off but phone in the background seems to function still and has not hanged/ crashed (haptic fedback, sounds still run etc).

This has occured since v2.3 up to v2.5. I was advised to revert the boot image to an earlier version at the expense of missing out on a few newer function like something related to battery management.

Has this been reported before by other, and is there a fix? I'd realy like to continue using this rom on a regular basis.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zuli007:
Luca did you wait for whole website load ? I kill everything (~102 MB Free) and open browser. Go to pocketnow.com , for beginning all is ok, but website is loading about 20 seconds - then browser closing itself.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] noc123:
Luca, this scrollable widget bar is awesome but there is one annoying thing. Is there any possibillity to turn off the changing track sound? If you listen to music little louder and change tracks very often that beep is very very annoying.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
There is no "Bip" when changing song O.o....

@zuli007 dunno...did you use some AD block?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Adriench:
Just updated from 2.4c, So far so good ! Really fast and smooth! a really good job!

The only 'bug' I've seen is the "allow light decrease " function that doesn't seem to work for me, it doesn't stay checked.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zuli007:
I do factory reset now and remove SD (just for sure). When phone boot i dont configure google account (cause android revert back apps) and go to pocketnow.com. After a while standard browser close itself and go to launcher - it also restarted. Strange problem. I try to disable OC now.

Update.

Disable OC dont repair problem :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Svid:
Can i use the GPS Config from vivo brazil leak in froyoMOD?becuse gps still pretty unstable for me :(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
seems strange, I'll look into that :D

this is a memory iussue, pocjetnow.com is too big for our RAM...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] pac213:
Is the LED Notification problem when using the gingerbread theme gone?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] noc123:
This beep sound is only when you listen to music with headphones. There is no sound without them. I'm using Ad Block from FroyoMod Extra Settings. But i unblocked them and the beep sound still exist.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zuli007:
Its strange that ginger open it normally (with less memory). Google do some improvments to system/browser.

2.5 is best froyo for milestone in my opinion, i dont see any bugs - stable, very fast with a lot of free ram. I wait for ginger from your hand.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kapuan1:
I've found the answer, disable javascript in browser.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Zinu:
I have gingerbread theme installed from 4shared. With active notifications, it's like this:

Notice the hard-to-read white letters.

With 2.4.0c and the Gingerbread theme I had for that this was not the case. I also liked the transperancy of the pulldown box, that is gone now too.

I've tried all the options under 'UI settings' regarding the status bar colors. Besides this this ROM is perfect, and it would be nice if there would be any way to fix this.

Or maybe someone has a link to the previous version of the GIngerbread skin?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] alijs:
thank you Luca for this master peace..

I really hate the keyboard & I couldnt be more happy when I found that you post froyo one... really appreciate it.

hope you can help fixing Arabic in this rom.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] burdik:
I've spotted another themes issue:

I've applied teh BlackDroid theme and nice window and transition animations changed to stock ones T_T

Can this be solved? along with the bugged notification power widget? (Really want to see a combined version including availability both to choose AND to reorder widgets ^^)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
ok, i'll revisite some themes!

@burdik

why you say power bar is bugged? can you explain?....
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] burdik:
I suppose it should fully fit vertically into it's place (i mean, there could be an option not to show the scroll indicator)

IMHO it just looks worse than it's previous version with this line between the widget and the Active notifications header =/
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] lolokman:
Hi, I love the BuglessRevolution very much.

It looks great except I have a tiny problem.

The frame of the browser is white while the the bookmark icon is dark.

It looks quite strange.

What should I do to fix this?

Thank you very much!

Here's a capture
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] thehaunted:
nice Rom

Thanx Luca for all you effort!

Finaly had some time for your mod. All was working fine.

Untill I tried to make photo's (thumbnail ok, picture itself is blue and red) or video (force close of video camera). tried some of the camera options in Androidani recovery, but nothing helped :(

So with this bug I had to switch...but you where my first choice ;)

came from stock 2.1 (root) > GOT_WINDITALY_2_2_1FULL.zip>Androidani 3.3 update : The FroyoMOD v2.5.0
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
This is ON PURPOSE this way...this is how android works...

if I do not leave that tiny space, when you scroll, the scrollbar (that is not iptional in android) will override the icons, and THAT wuould be ugly!

Seems strange I play video just fine, about camcorder, wuould you mind about tring ohter overclocs in AOR? maybe it's that!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] thehaunted:
And thats why you where my first choice :) lol what a fast answer!

Will give the Froyo Mod another try and toggle overclock if the camm still doesnt work
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] wizwith:
Wireless Tether

Anyone else having trouble with Wireless Tether? Have tried all of the recent versions and they say the phone is not rooted even though it is, and that could not wireless tether, even though it does. 2.0.5 says the kernel is not access-controllable and disables it.

It seems to work but is intermittent.

Thanks!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] thehaunted:
no video playback

fresh install, camera and video works now :-)

but when I vieuw the recorded video it doesnt work:

No activity found to handle intent {act=android.intent.action.VIEW dat =content//:media/external/video/media/4 typ=video/*}

:confused:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] shuweee:
great rom, seems to run better than 2.4.0c.

i do have one little problem when activating the exchange acct, the security issue seems to come back and i have remove the device admin from the settings but the notification of reapplying the security policy kept coming back.

any idea how i can stop that?

thanks
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
is it the one in the Market?

Dunno I do not use wireless tether , i0ve provided a fully working 3g mobile hotspot from MOTO in it why to use wireless tether??

glad to see that you resolved!

To the error, try switching to 3d gallery and retry!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] thehaunted:
Solved. Switched gallery and installed Mvideoplayer.

Thanx Luca your Rom is now bug free :)

It is also stable and very complete. Ze bèst!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] disparo:
3G mobile hotspot doesn't work for me. After startup tryout it dropping and recreating GPRS connection, then producing error about unability of establishing data connection, despite it already been established. Why?

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
There are 2 black png files in framework-res.apk that cause that:

btn_search_dialog_default.9

btn_search_dialog_voice_default.9

They are in the res\drawable-hdpi folder.

The only reason I know is because it was driving me nuts a couple of days ago since the critters aren't in browser apk. Then when tweaking the framework-res.apk I saw them and quickly showed them who's boss :cool:

You can replace them with the attached png files.

Just open framework-res.apk with 7zip, navigate to the res\drawable-hdpi, drag the files into 7zip and save before closing.

Hi everybody !

Is there a way to wake up my milestone using other key than power button on Froyo 2.5 ?

Thanks in advance
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] thehaunted:
wake up

I don think dev's have enough acces on the hardware to change button behavior....:confused: But Sliding open my Milestone wakes it up also. Does that do the trick for ya?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] dorol:
Yes slide up is working.

But my wife's Optimus One can also wake up by pressing touch keys - home or back or up .

I can report, that my bug went away with setting wifi router from b,g,n mode, to b,g mode:) And it is a known GOT 2.2.1 leak issue, so for now there willbe no other fix, than playing with ruter settings, to make it work.
