hey this is great news. finally motorola takes a call on upgrading milestone at a global level.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] DannyDroid:
It's times like these I wish xda had a "like" button.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rand0m_insanity:
Ah, so I guess it would be only a matter of time before we get the official one eh? But I really don't think I'd stick to my Milestone any longer. Unless they unlock the bootloader as well, then maybe I won't go to HTC for my next phone.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] exhardy:

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rand0m_insanity:
Likewise. I doubt this would be happening within this month. Still trying to remain positive though. I just hope that release would be really GOOD, given the fact that they had delayed the release several times already.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] tisungho:
270 degrees rotation is kinda annoying for me while I'm lying down and using the phone.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Lapiduss:
You can disable it with many widget/app if you don't like..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Svid:
I dont think that the update will be relesed in this month at all.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] SudevG:
Very True... :cool:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] SudevG:
App2SD

How about Froyo's native App2SD support... I don't see its mentioned anywhere :confused: (Original Google Translation or Better Transalation)

i fell that moto is in its final stages and gonna launch it in a few days time. (I'm Not Motorola). its just my insticnt.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] shreyas99:
I agree. With such conspiracies and papers coming up everyday, and FroYo being delayed for so long, I think they are in the process of rolling out a FroYo update very soon...

(Fingers Crossed) Dont disappoint us this time, Moto. Or its the last time we put faith in you.:mad:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zankyw:
I can just say that Motorola is asking to some Spaniards at facebook (click on Page 5) to check again if we get the update.

Apparently it was supposed to start rolling out for us in Spain yesterday, but as of this moment it's not working
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] The Solutor:
If I'm not wrong the previous updates were pushed on sunday evening, maybe it's a motorola "rule".
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zankyw:
Ok guys, I'll be alert tomorrow then.

Is it usual for Moto to release it first in certain countries to test the release?

Assuming that's going to happen, would it be useful for you guys if I do a factory reset after getting the update, and then upload the backup somewhere?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Christoffer84:
yes, please do that and keep us informed ;)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rand0m_insanity:
Hmm. I hope this is really going to happen soon.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] shreyas99:
Spoke to Motorola Customer helpline today, and I have been assured that FroYo rollout is confirmed for Asia Pacific in the Last week of Jan or the first week of Feb. Now in excited. Froyo Love, Finally !

Hope its worth it.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] naresh9876:
YEAYYYYYY!!!!! so happy to hear this news.

i hope kabaldan is ready to mingle around with this kernel and let us know the possibility of having 2.3 in our milestones( i bet u need alot of coffee's):p

to all Themers's please be ready to port alot of themes(i can bet alot of people will love to have sileshn's theme in the improved froyo).:p

lets enjoy a sleepless night mingling around our miley with the improved froyo!!!

Coffee's anyone??:p
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zankyw:
nevermind...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] A-HWH:
Great news to hear, but that will mean bad news for me as I won't be in a country with good wifi and phone coverage during that week to receive the update. :(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] AndroidXDA:
Today the news was released on the website of spain as well, but still can not download.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] leobg:
Looks like they are preparing for a launch - I'd say by tomorrow it will be up everywhere.

Wondering why G.O.T group is dead silent... Last (2.1u1) update they leaked quite ahead of official release.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zankyw:
Finally available in SPAIN.

Downloading!!! :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ares225:
zankyw please let us know if it is the real froyo and the wait is over after you download it.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
OTA or software upgrade?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zankyw:
I was forcing the system to check for updates and playing with "Auto system check".

Got a pop-up saying that I'd get anotification when the download were over.

Because I couldn't see any progress bar and it's been a while I have been trying to check for system updates manually and I've been getting messages saying that "The device is unable to connect to the server. Try again later." or that system is already up to date (but it's not).

Don't know if I should reboot or not.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Which ROM are you on now?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zankyw:
Stock.

It's also rooted but this was no problem with previous updates. Just had to re-root IIRC.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
2.1-update1?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zankyw:
Exactly.

Btw, my brother has been trying with his Milestone and he didn't get any of those messages, now both of us get that the system is already up to date.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Same here. I flashed the Spanish sbf 2.38.1 and tried. Says system is uptodate. I have now flashed the retail Europe version. Lets wait and see.

Thanks for checking.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zankyw:
Before someone says: "Pics or it didn't happen":

Sorry about the background, but I guess I don't have much experience with drocap2
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Mati20041:
So you already know what is it?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zankyw:
Nope, nothing yet, touched OK half an hour ago (the last time I did it) and still waiting for that notification to appear.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zankyw:

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zankyw:
It doesn't download!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] shreyas99:
Are you sure its a 2.2 update ? Can anyone confirm this ? Has anyone been able to download this ?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zankyw:
There's a question mark in the title of the video. I haven't claimed it is. :D

But there seems to be some problem with Motorola servers because it's not downloading.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] i2gh0st:
Probably because you all want to update the phone in the time? :-)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zankyw:
Hahaha, that could be a good explanation.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] duytrum444:
today is 25/1/2011.....froyo available in asia-pacific??

i hope it
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] shreyas99:
No updates in Froyo in APAC as yet. Looks like Moto is sending us on a wild goose chase again !
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rampee:
Lol yeah. I've been force checking for updates every hour like a retarded person.

Dammit!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] qboyz:
i have a feeling THIS is the 2.1u1 update. moto didnt change anything, like last time long ago
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] classicryder:
delayed again?? aww cmon moto... any updates on this issue?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] shreyas99:
Shucks. If this update turns out to be another freakishly small 2.1 update, mt Milestone is heading out the window. Instead of Hello Moto, Im gonna sing Hello HTC, Goodbye Moto.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rand0m_insanity:
I already got myself an HTC Desire Z. Not getting another Moto phone ever.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] pac213:
I think It's a G2. There is no Desire Z here in the Philippines. Well, If I have the budget, I might go for Desire HD. But Christmas is still 11 months away LOL!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ed213:
how to dump to other milestone?

Hi all,

i've got the 2.2.1 on Milestone, it's an official release from moto since i'm working in a asia-pac operator and they passed us the updated demo unit to test with.

it's not blazingly fast..still clocked at 550, quadrant scored 4xx, nothing much to impress, but 3g hotspot, task manager are built-in, no duplicated gallery app as in vivo brasil version.

build no. is SHOLS_U2_05.26.0

my question:

HOW THE HELL CAN I DUMP THE FIRMWARE OUT TO PC SUCH I COULD SHARE?

*edited - z4root 1.3.0 doesn't work..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rand0m_insanity:
Have you visited any shops in Manila lately?? HTC officially launched the Desire Z here in the Philippines.

Of course I'm not an idiot. I know what a G2 interface looks like, and how a Sense UI looks like.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Do you know how to take a nandroid backup?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rand0m_insanity:
I guess a nandroid backup would work. But im no expert. You can ask some of the devs in the ROM threads for help. :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
You could follow this guide for a nandroid backup.

Was it a OTA update or an sbf file?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] i2gh0st:
Uuuuuuu ...... new toy.

....."I'm so excited"...

Thanks for sharing.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] keunhuvac:
Nandroid is only available when phone is able to run openrecovery. Official rom is not able to run openrecovery!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ed213:
moto sent us the unit and it's upgraded already...they won't send the sbf file or put them up to OTA before it goes public

hmm i'll try a vulnerably recovery and root with open recovery in a moment.

btw the kernel ver reads 2.6.32.9
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] lalit79:
what does the kernel compilation date reads? Is it Jan 5th?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Take your time, buddy. It isn't going to be very different from the leaked Vivo rom, anyway.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ed213:
i suppose so, anyway...

http://db.tt/xcVuKrO

it's totally raw from what i've nandroided from the device, non-rooted

enjoy :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] atoyu:

you received device today??

to be precise yesterday :)

anyway i've restored the nandroid on another milestone..and it's working too, cheers

how about baseband stuff and overclocking?

can i still use GOT recovery for this?

have not tried overclocking...but rooting via openrecovery works

i'm still trying...but wifi/3G is noticeably faster!

overclock and downclock fail !!!!!reboot

use milestone overclock
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] atoyu:
i flash from CM6 and cronos,i think this rom better than CM6 and cronos, is good for normal user upgrade. 550 cpu speed is not big problem for me.

and the market is old one.....won't auto up to new market.***update****second boot autoupdate to new market!!!!!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Christoffer84:
there is an auto up to new market

don't forget the autostart Mod when trying to overclock

Try this if you are rooted. Dont bother about the picture displayed there. That's for the Vivo Leak.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10695927&postcount=308

Battery Management seems to be specific to Moto ROM's released in Brasil. Even 2.1 had that, i presume.

@ed213, why don't you open a new thread specific to this ROM, or do you want me to do it for you?

Also, can you upload a new nandroid with the cdrom md5 file included? Only if you can. Nevermind.

Nice, thanks for sharing that release ed213 !

It would be nice to know what kernel they use. This may be the last official kernel, so i really hope it works well for a CM7 port ;)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] bengsa:
Recently there are too many rumors out about it,hope this is true!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
This is not final release. This is a test release.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Please dont tell me this is the Official Froyo for the Milestone and tell me its just a very crappy beta, cause if it is Motorola deserves to exit the phone market, I waited 5 months for this ****? no way its a joke 420 quadrant score? are they joking, and it looks like ****, even when overclocked to 1GHz not even close to 1500, and I get that score with Froyo Mod, even a stock Motorola Milestone 2 gets 1400 in quadrant and its the same CPU, and dont start with OMAP 3430 vs 3630 cause its the same arhitecture only 65nm vs 45nm so I just want to know whats up with the crappy performance even @ 1GHz its not capable of playing a HD 720p movie and with CM6 I can play the same movie even @ 900MHz, if this comes up as real official froyo, next week I say by by moto and hello Samsung

749 Quadrant score @ 1GHz thats a joke, and the problem is the x264 decoding test just kills the CPU, I dont get it, the GOT release was perfect regarding performance what happened,

Hi all,

i'm not too into "creating new thread" stuff...it's ok if you want to and thanks :) I was just as excited as every user who wants to try out what froyo's like on my Milestone :)

regarding if this is a final(public) release and performance..sorry i can only say this is an official release from motorola that i could say it's the latest one here, they passed us stable firmware for testing, there might be some more releases but i assume there'll not be dramatic improvement..as always from moto

and yea, my motorola defy @ 2.1 score 13xx on stock...well we need to admit the number of RAM does matter, the stone is 1 yr old already!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Ok, buddy. A big thanks to you for this release. I will create the thread for you and your efforts will be appreciated. I will post the thread link once i am done. Thanks again.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Not really depends on what are you using the phone for, but the Milestone can score close to 1800 in Quadrant @ 1250MHz I tested that personally, so its not a problem, so its just crappy build from moto, for the time we waited they should have relase a build that scores 1500+ from the start, and not speaking of that ugly as hell stock launcher, gallery 2D and music player, its not even capable of displaying all the album arts that I have, and they were displayed in CM or FroyoMod so again moto s fault, we waited for what a 2.1 updated and they call it 2.2.1 cause from the performance and user experience it looks like it and as ED213 said Im to sceptical that the final release will fix this problems if this is not the final release
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ed213:
thanks for everyone who is interested in this release :)

honestly its not common for manufacturer to release a firmware with higher clockrate..remember the stone is only a 550Mhz and 256MB RAM device and many of the newly released phones beat it easily and it doesnt only matter if its 2.2 or 2.1, consider a stock stone2 scores around 1500-1600 here(as i remember), if moto could make the stone1 somewhere 1500 no one is going to buy the stone2 when its released in mid-feb here :)

things just got retired at some point of time, well but i hate the outlook of stone2, the lack of qwerty on defy, but they are better on hardware i have to say

we did have good time with the stone1 right? take it easy
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
As you put it, it depends on what the person uses his phone for. Not everyone is interested in having high scores in Quadrant or overlocking their phone to 1250Mhz. Atleast not me.

I just want some decent performance from my phone and i am quite happy with what Moto provides ( except for the locked bootloader ).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] wapee:
After rooting and installing busybox 'uname -a' reports:

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] wolvie_rs:
Well, im using the Telus with Froyomod yet. Any big difference in this one?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
I dont overclock to 1250 for daily use but I overclock to 1GHz, but that is not my point my point is that they chopped up the performance like ed said just so they could sell the Milestone 2, because the got release scored 1500+ @ 1GHz exactly like the M2 and the f***** the x264 part so you cant play movies, compare this release with Froyo Mod or CM its not even close, yes the scrolling is smoother and the widget list etc, but thats all some other minor changes and thats all, that could have been done in a month not 8, I expected a lot more from moto regarding this, but anyway Il just wait for the final release and if its the same Il return the phone to Orange and request a exchange with a Galaxy S
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 89luca89:
@ALL

Man, quadrant doesn't mean nothing.... it's just a benchmark (and not yet fully functional regarding cpu tests!)

if you wat 1000+point, just go in build.prop

search for

media.stagefright.enable-player=

media.stagefright.enable-meta=

media.stagefright.enable-scan=

media.stagefright.enable-http=

and set ALL of them to "true" (should be "false" by default) and then reboot...

redo quadarant and....WOW 1500+ point (@1ghz)...

This shows you that quadrant/linpack are not reliable benchmarks....

enjoy

EDIT: to see if a ROM fits your needs, just use it for 2\3 days and decide...do not judge basing yourself on those crappy benchmarks....even in my ROMS I do not mention those benchs..(if not to show a difference like this one)
