v3 review

Dear Master,

Thanks for your ROM, fast, fancy, and no need to install much additional widget.

I am not going to challenge you, but just list out the pros and cons for your ROM as reference, hope can be improved in upcoming version.

Pros:

- Fast

- Android 2.3.2

- Quite Complete

- Camera works great! Very smooth!

Cons:

- Battery Indication may not correct

- When reboot, random application will gone without any reason.

- The SD Card will show error sometimes (but the SD card checked normal when using Laptop to perform checking)

At last but not the least, fuel up! So grateful for your contribution and effort!

Sorry for not searching through every 40 pages, but I am unable to install this rom.

It says it cant find nandroid.md5 when i'm attempting to restore it.

I did the 3 wipes and reboot process...

I can install CM7 without any problem, but with the Nandroid restore the HO!NO! Rom fails every time.

Also downloaded it twice to make sure the file wasn't corrupted.

Any ideas?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] HO!NO!:
md5 problem is due most of the time by not selecting new nandroid backup from openrecovery or you are using a too old openrecovery.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] lifegear:
I'm using G.O.T. Recovery 1.04a. I'll give a shot at Androidiani OpenRecovery 3.3.

Also I'm not an expert in this but I'm pretty sure I did everything right. After moving from CM6 to CM7, my backups weren't recognized. So I made a new nandroid backup, which created a new folder on my sd card, and moved my backups there including the Ho!No! nandroid.

I'll edit this post if it worked.

EDIT: It worked! Thanks :)

Using apps2ext, updating to HO!NO! 7.0.0-RC3-0.07-11.03.02 I still had to do a full wipe. Before that, my Stone got stuck at the CM7 logo. :confused:

It's not nearly as bad as having to do a full wipe without apps2ext but losing all app specific settings at each update is still kind of annoying (I'm hesitant re. backing up & restoring app settings since I won't know which app data it is that makes the phone hang at boot).

Hey am I just to blind to find it or did the latest HO!NO! remove the Profile settings introduced by the last CM7?

2- my gallery is app is too bugy, every time i rotate my phone the app restarting.

I would appreciate it if you could reply my post and share your tips & advices with me. :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Aoi_sora9x:
I think you should try to recalibrate your battery.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11803458&postcount=10

And I also agree that this mod does not really have a good battery life. :/ I have reduced the overclock to 750 MHz but if it doesnt help much I might change the gorvernor to conservative as well...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Well, see my signature for my tips on SuperCharging your phone ;)

I recommend CPU Tuner... I'm overclocked to 1100mhz but usually it sits at 250 mhz 70% of the time.

I set it to use smartass when the screen is off... smartass is really good for that.

WARNING apps2sd users!

HO!NO! CM7 mod 7.0.0-RC3-0.08-11.03.16 will most probably ERASE your files on the ext2 partition!

No kidding. I've verified this twice now on my phone. First I thought that there was something wrong with enabling apps2sd but then realized that it is working but that all data on the ext2 had been lost.

My final test:

1. Factory reset. Flash CM7 0.07, enable apps2sd, reboot. Dl root explorer, check if it's in /sd-ext/app & check if the size of /data/app equals the ext2 partition. All ok.

2. Recovery, factory reset. Flash CM7 0.08, enable apps2sd, reboot. Check if root explorer is in /sd-ext/app & check if the size of /data/app equals the ext2 partition. All ok.

3. Recovery, factory reset. Nandrestore HO!NO! CM7 mod 7.0.0-RC3-0.08-11.03.16, enable apps2sd, reboot. Check if root explorer is in /sd-ext/app: FAIL. Check if root explorer is available through the app launcher: FAIL. Check if the size of /data/app equals the ext2 partition: OK. Dl root explorer, check if it's in /sd-ext/app & check if used size in /data/app equals used size in /sd-ext/app: All ok.

Unless I'm missing something here, this seems to quite clearly show that the ext2 somehow get's erased/overwritten during the nandrestore. :(

Solved: Do NOT use any additional apps2sd script/update with HO!NO!. Just (apply the CM7 update, then) nandrestore this. Using additional scripts may result in loss of ext2 data/apps.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] HO!NO!:
What i do with 2 phone was only full wipe phone twice then apply nandroid backup and reboot.

Everything was working perfectly after. No need to enable apps2sd or anything else. BTW my nandroid backup can not erase sd-ext partion at all.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Tomdroid:
It's not like I understand what exactly is going on, all I can describe is what happened and how. And as you can see from above description, on my phone an app dl'ed and installed using apps2sd will still be there after a full wipe and a CM7 update but will be gone after applying your latest nandroid.

My apps2sd routine which I've been using successfully for some time now:

1. Apply CM7 update / apply HO!NO! nandrestore

2. Full wipe

3. Apply apps2sd_full.zip from http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10934421&postcount=37

4. Console: mkdir /system/sd

5. reboot

This worked fine for the past 6 or so times.

With the 11.03.16 HO!NO! however, I noticed that none of my apps were available after that. So I went back to OR and did the whole thing again, same result. OR again, this time updating to the last CM7 0.07, still no apps. Installed root explorer from the market and finally realized that apps2sd was working, but the ext2 was empty. Then I did twice what I wrote above. I still don't know how or why, I only know that my ext2 "get's emptied" one way or another every time I do the latest HO!NO! nandrestore.

:confused:

Oh and, I'm not trying to be alarmist or anything, just thought I'd let the other users know so they can backup their apps before doing the update. So they wont end up re-downloading some 100 apps like I am now. :rolleyes:

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] geevee11:
With CM7, you don't need to make the sd folder In the system partition. You just need the ext2 script.

Plus why are you re-applying it when it's already enabled?

And you don't keep a nand backup or even a titanium backup of your apps before flashing or applying a rom?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
me?

Nah I've never had a plate with my online nickname :P

But I used to have a '92 white jetta lol
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Tomdroid:
Sure? I know after the first 2 CM7 updates I did after setting up the ext2, it wouldn't work "out of the box". So I figured I had to do these steps after every CM7 update to get it to work. Maybe it was just a bug back then and I didn't realize it got fixed. And I thought re-applying it was necessary because the symlinks are part of the system partition and that one get's overwritten with every CM7 update and HO!NO! nandrestore.

Anyway, this still doesn't explain what happens here. After all I can re-do the whole procedure as often as I want, the apps in ext2 will just stay there. But once I nandrestore the latest HO!NO!, all is gone. :confused:

No, because making backups stopped working for me the moment I had the ext2 set up. Thought that was just so and that I had to wait for the next OR update. Besides, with all the apps "safe" on the ext2, all I needed - and have - are a few app and system settings backups. At least that's what I thought when deleting the whole app backups last week. :rolleyes:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] gemini002:
ummm i said help and pls what is rude about that???:confused:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] gemini002:
ext 2 just will not work for me on this mod:( can someone help me pls..i tried to add directory flashed zip restored data nothing works for ext 2
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Tomdroid:
Ooook. It's getting better: now it seems that I'm losing all my ext2 data after every single reboot of the phone. :eek:

I had dl'ed some 100 apps again. They were there, on the phone. I could start every single one that I tried, so it's not like I was seeing ghosts. ;) Also they were on the ext2 (checked with root explorer). So first things first, I did a full app backup using "MyBackup root".

And then, one reboot later and all is gone. Yes, the apps2sd still seemed to be working, however the ext2 was empty again! Yeah, wtf?!

So I did a full app restore (only apk's, no data) using MyBackup. Again, all apps there and usable. And yet again, a reboot and all is gone.

So what I did now was:

Full wipe.

Install CM7 0.08

Nandrestore HO!NO!

Full wipe.

Keyboard to qwertz.

Reboot.

...

No apps from before are present (as expected).

I dl root explorer and see that apps2sd is working (nice surprise tbh.).

Restore my apps, again.

Reboot.

...

Aaaand, everything's still there! Zomg. And yes, I tried another reboot, still good. :D

So my guess: that apps2sd_full.zip script which used to work fine up until this last update, somehow isn't compatible any longer with HO!NO! and now screws things up. Big time.

Does anyone encounter problems where all downloaded apps become inaccessible (as if they are not installed) each time the phone is rebooted?

At first I thought it's my SD card. So I took out the SD card. Same thing. So I can't reboot my phone right now, otherwise all my apps will be "uninstalled".

However, if the phone restarts by itself (it happened to me once when I was playing with Google Maps), the downloaded apps are intact.

I wonder what could be the problem.
