First a backup. :p

Created FAT32 and Ext2 partitions

Copied OR 3.3 onto FAT32

OR will not start - cannot find update.zip

After thinking for a while I repartitioned the card to one FAT32

OR now works - so restored nandroid with ext2 support

Wiping everything and rebooting a couple of times

Repartition the card into FAT32 and Ext2 - copy datafiles back to FAT32

Phone boots just fine - but ofcourse apps2ext does not yet work

Copy apps2sd_full to OR update folder

Try to boot into OR but again cannot find update.zip

Repartition card into one FAT32 and copy files back

Now the apps2sd_full update runs

Reboot phone - no apps2ext since no ext partition. Verify that /system/sd exists.

Repartition card into FAT32 + ext2 and copy files back again.

Run Busybox Installer. Success. Reboot

Checking if apps2ext works - no it does not since

* Phone memory still 145MB

* /system/sd is empty

* My linux laptop says ext2 partition is empty

Should OR work even if ext2 partition on card?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Try this method.

Make a backup of the contents of your sdcard.

Run Androidiani OR and partition card using the menu option mentioned below. Make sure you create only a 1 GB ext2 partition.

Eclair modding menu->Menu App2sd->Split Sdcard->your option based on size of your sdcard.
​

Wait for it to finish. Reboot. Copy contents of sdcard back to FAT32 partition. Copy the attached Apps2sd_full.zip to openrecovery/updates folder. Reboot to recovery again and run OR. If it runs, first step completed. You have ext2 partition and OR runs.

Use OR console to create sd folder in system partition using command " mkdir /system/sd "

Apply the apps2sd_full.zip

Reboot

Install Busybox from market

Reboot to recovery, wipe all, reboot

Now check you phone memory and see if it has increased. Try installing apps and see if it shows up in your ext partition.

Let me know if this works.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] christine600:
Yes it did! Thank you!

Except for a little snag:

Had to create another menu entry for my tiny 4GB card. :rolleyes:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Hey that's looking really nice :)

christine600: It worked? I tried it that way but failed. In mine AOR, the script looks for parted in /sdcard/OpenRecovery/app2sd/bin/ but I have no app2sd folder. I found a copy of parted and put it where it's supposed to go but still I had no luck... I must have a locked bootloader on my sd card. heh. :P

I ended up doing it manually which was an interesting though prolonged process... :rolleyes:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
If AOR does not work for ext2 partition creation, use GOT OR to partition your card and then use AOR for the other tasks.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Svid:
The full module transfer dalvik-cache too?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Yup.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Yeah I tried that too.

It looked like it worked but then at the end I got an error about something "overlapping" which I don't understand because the script looked good to me.

So I ended up doing it the old fashioned way...

Mostly I used this guide, here on XDA.

This is what I ended up doing:

1. Installed android sdk - Edit: Or you can install Droid Explorer instead as this will install the files you need.

2. Copied adb.exe and AdbWinApi.dll to C:\Windows\System32 folder

3. Copied parted to the root of my C:\ drive

4. Booted phone into Androidiani OpenRecovery 3.3, and selected USB Mass Storage Mode.

5. At command prompt I typed the commands (the bold text):

adb push /parted /sbin/parted

adb shell chmod 755 /sbin/parted

adb shell

6. Then in adb:

parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

print (just to check the existing partition(s))

rm 1 (removed the one and only existing partition)

mkpartfs primary fat32 0 15000

mkpartfs primary ext2 15000 16040

print (hey look, it worked!)

quit (whew!)

2 Questions:

Most scripts for a 16gb sd card use the line

mkpartfs primary ext2 15000 15900

but I wanted to see how big I could make it so I ended up changing the 15900 to 16040)

1. Was that a bad idea?

Because in AOR, when I run the scandisk on the sd card, I ALWAYS get an error the first time.

ie "Next free cluster in FSInfo block (xxxx) not free fix? yes... blah blah blah...."

If I run scandisk again right away, it's fine.

After booting up and going back it's the same thing... FSInfo block error... balls.

2. I'm guessing a swap file partition still won't work, right?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
1. Check Step 5 here. It says how to setup your partition sizes correctly.

2. No. Swap will not work with milestone. You need the kernel supporting it.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Oh yeah, I did see that page before.

Looks like I did fine because it shows that it's okay to have a partition reach the very end. I was worried that I had to leave a few mb of space at the end.

My problem was that the print command didn't show a precise number of mbs.

Just that big, fat 16.0GB.

That's why I experimented and ended up as high as 16040.

I would have wasted 140 mb of space, since all the 16gb scripts go up to 15900

So it's all good :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Svid:
will you make the 3way reboot to this theme too?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Its already done. :D

Review

As promised, here are my thoughts on this leak after using it for 3 whole weeks.

1. Good battery life - On normal usage (moderate Wi-Fi, GPS) I get nearly 2 days of battery life. 4-5 days out of 3 weeks it has been a little lesser (a little above a day). Keeping auto-sync switched off makes a huge difference.

2. Speed - I've overclocked it to 900 MHz. Works flawlessly, hasn't overheated much (only few times during gaming and on prolonged voice calls). Performance during opening/usage of apps is good. Get force closes now and then, but pretty rare. I'm using LP to reduce home screen redraws.

3. Bugs - I haven't come across anything at all (yet..?)

Overall - good stock ROM. Easily the best/safest available out there!

Thanks to ed213 and Silesh for all their hard work :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] lineager:
rampee, could you share how to configure the Milestone to get 2 days of battery life on this Rom? :)

Yes, as always.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Svid:
My Dalvik-Cache is in SD Card so via OR Console use this command?

rm -f /system/sd/dalvik-cache/

No need. Just wipe in OR and proceed. Believe me, it works. I have apps2ext too.

Wow thanks for the quick respond.

Thanks downloading.

PS: I Saw some pics of the theme and you use any custom launcher?if yes,what is it?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Zeam launcher. Though development has stopped for it, i find it very very good. LPP was my earlier choice, but this is really good and very less use of resources.

It doesn't have as many optimizations as LPP, but good enough for me. It is available in market.

1. I keep my sync switched off

2. WiFi on throughout the day, switch it off at night

3. Use APNdroid to switch off data when you don't need it

4. Auto brightness setting for display

5. Make sure programs like Skype don't autostart

My battery is fairly new. If the battery has slightly been messed up due to heavy gaming/music, results may vary.

It might be good to do a full power discharge and charge it back after the phone is switched off [twice!].
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Ram, just to inform you, you don't need APNdroid to switch off data in Froyo. It can be done from the Settings->Wireless->Mobile Networks->Data enabled.

Oh! cool. But I like the homescreen widget to toggle the option quickly :)

But does turning off data from wireless settings disable it completely? I use Maps now and then, so I need it on only then

Hello!

Some questions: where i find that wonderfull wallpaper? The icons for memory and usage, and temperature? The calendar? And the buttons on bar, how to make it?

Thanks!

I apply the theme and the Launcher Pro.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cynsx:
I have a question.

Is it safe to apply memhack to this rom in AOR?

Thanks
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Wallpaper comes with the theme. The calendar/clock is fancy widget i think. The icons for memory / temperatute etc are a paid app called extended controls, available in market.

To change icons in the LP dock, you do the following.

long press on the icon. It will show a menu. Choose change shortcut. Choose application and select the application that you need . Choose default icon . Done. Do this for all the icons except the app launcher. Check

this

Clock - Fancy Widget Pro

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cynsx:
I tried.

I was on CM6.1.2

I wiped everything (data, cache, davik cache) and restored this rom from nandroid.

Then I applied memhack in AOR.

The machine is now much slower than CM6.1.2, which is very different from what I expect after reading the response from others in this thread.

The wifipowersaving does not work now and some weired phone actions during phone call.

If I want to have a clean install of this rom, what steps should I do?

1. wipe everything

2. restore this rom from nandroild

or

1. wipe everything

2. install the GOT 2.2.1 with RSD.

3. restore this rom from nandroid.

Which procedure is correct?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
This is enough. Also note that there are different nandroid backups mentioned in the OP.

For people who want the get back to stock look after installing my themes, i have included a flashable update with the stock apps. You just need to flash it over your existing setup after wiping dalvik/cache. It will retain the reboot mod.

Well, after some things, i try to recover a Nandroid backup and my phone start to glitch. So, i think: i will make all the things again. Used the first nandroid backup, with Morotola things. All ok. Only problem? Can't make the app2sd work again. Man, i try all the things, make the SD directory, install busybox, click the install button to system/sbin, reboot and the internal memory goes down when i install something.

Formated the card many and many times, nothing...

Anything maybe im forgeting?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
I presume you applied the apps2ext flashable zip file.

Why don't you use the nandroid backup with apps2ext enabled? I am kinda sleepy, so post your problems here and ill have a look tomorrow.

how to enable apps2ext

hi sileshn, just flashed ur nand back up with apps 2 ext enabled, but seems the apps2ext part is not working as when installing big games like asphalt 5 about 6mb out of 11 mb shows up in phone internal memory. used the following procedure.got my sd partition as per ur guide. it worked(AOR was not working)

1)wipe all data+cache+dalvik.

2)applied nand back up with apps2 ext enabled

3)reboot

4)clear cache/dalvik

5)applied latest matrix theme(looks very good indeed)

cleared cache/dalvik again and reboot.

pls note that after applying nand back up i went to console in AOR and typed mkdir/system/sd and then "enter key" but msg showed no such directory

also i didn't knew how to come back out of that window so typed reboot in console. so i dont know actually if this folder is made or not.

pls if u can let me know if after applying ur apps2ext enabled nandroid, do we still need to go to console and type this path. if so how do i come out of that screen. also busybox installed but to no avail.

sorry for putting this noob quest for u but i think only u can help.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Svid:
Did you create Ext2 partition on your SD Card?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] upss16:
ext2 partition created

yes i got my sd card partitioned as per the guide from sileshn as sd card was not getting split using AOR. but after that i dont know why i dont have apps2ext working. my ext partition shows up in titanium back up also.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
No need if you use the apps2ext enabled nandroid because sd folder is already available. Use root explorer to check if the sd folder is available in the /system directory. btw the command is " mkdir /system/sd " , not "mkdir/system/sd". You need a space between the command and the path.

Also when you install apps to ext, some data needs to be written to the internal memory. The best way to check if installation to ext works is to do the following.

1. Install a app, it should show up in the app folder in the ext partition.

2. Remove a app, it should remove itself from the app folder in the ext partition.

Sometimes it takes more than one reboot to get it working. So try installing a few apps and reboot again. See if it helps.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Which version of busybox did you install?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] wolvie_rs:
The last one on the Market... 1.1.7 i think.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ashet:
Hi sileshn,

I applied the matrix theme but now I'm having problems in booting. Sometimes it takes very long. Previously my max rebooting time is 1min. If its not too much trouble will you be able to provide an update package that will revert back to ur previos boot animation? I already reapplied the gb theme but it did not change the boot animation. I guess its not part of that package. Thanks a lot.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Ok. Try this. Even if this does not work, i dont know what's wrong. You need to have your ext partition before you try this. And do it afresh, meaning wipe all. Use only AOR

1. Install the nandroid of your choice ( not the one which has apps2ext already applied )

2. Reboot to recovery. Run AOR. In console type the following.

mkdir /system/sd ( note, there is a space between the command and the path )

cd /system

ls

It should show the sd folder. Check if it is present. Type exit to get back to AOR.

3. Apply the attached apps2ext zip file

4. Reboot

5. Install busybox from market

6. Reboot to recovery. Wipe all. Reboot

7. Install your apps and check if apps2ext is working.

doesn't look like the latest kernel

Ok Guys,

Heres my first impression of the leaked rom. I think its definitely not the latest version of the kernel :( . My observations

- Kernel is exactly same as the december 24/25th leak. The brazilian rom leak is i think the latest version. the build date is just a property in a config file

- All the lib files are exactly the same as the december version. There were few updates to the proprietary files in the brazilian leak.

Dunno which one is better from a performance perspective. You can compare the boot.img as well as some of the propreitary files in lib/modules i the dec version with this one.

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rampee:
First impressions

Many thanks to ed213 and Silesh for this!

Running this firmware now - first impressions:

1. Camera picture quality has slightly improved

2. Supports Apps on SD card

3. Feels smoother, faster (have to test JIT, Flash though)

4. Market auto-updates

5. Battery life is much better - will post an update on this after 3-4 days

Newer doesn't mean better always, i guess . ;)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] xb360:
Have you compare with the European leak?

Is the kernel same as Brasil or APAC build?

The Eupore is SHOLS_U2_05.25.0

While APAC is SHOLS_U2_05.26.0

*Not that I know what difference does it make. :P
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] lalit79:
yeah u may be right...and moreover it seems a more complete rom with the inclusion of all default locales...

it might be even possible that the brazilian version was actually an older version. hell if it works gr8, then i also dont care abt the release date...:)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Brazooka:
Someone, please?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Battery life is definetely better. 5 hours since flash, 3 hours of wifi use, a few phone calls and battery has not dropped. No 3g though.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] dsixda:
Are you guys still seeing occasional problems on this build, with the soft buttons requiring more than one press? I saw this happen with the Brazil test ROM.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] amossam:
flashed before half hour ago, and this feels good! :D

had few FC in settings and market on first boot, but after that nothing (i didi 3 wipes before and after restoring)! Pretty smooth!

One question: If i understand it correctly, for JIT to be enabled you need some files and one line in build.prop (dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:jit). Files are there, so i just tried to insert the line in build.prop and rebooted....

Everything feels the same, and quandrant and linpack scores are in 5% range. So do I need to replace files anyway, or this rom has JIT enabled by default?

Sorry if this is dumb question! :D :cool:

Thx
