I'm feeling little bit stupid .... but i'll ask. :)

Sd card is partitioned 1 fat32 and 1 ext2 ( as it is in the manual ) but still cannot start stupid shi*t to install programs on the sdcard partition. I'm not sure why is this happenning but do i need to write somewhere that /system/sd is shortcut to ext2 part on the sd card ?

Whatever i do it doesn't go well ( 1st of all i forget to do backup on the card ) :)

I also tryed the way with the manual , step by step all

what i have do :

1. download 3 tools - apps2sd_full.zip / sdcard formater / partition program = OK

2. format + partitions = OK

3. copy to update folder in OR apps2sd_full.zip and apply / mkdir /system/sd = OK

4. install busyboxe run program click install .. = OK

And nothing ... :(

I tried also the nandroid with apps2ext and still the same problem

Please advice me where i'm making mistake.

p.s.

Do i need to make master reset/davik cashe reset and so on ?

####################################

master reset to all + reinstallation of all and now everthing is OK. lost some info but .. it's for good. Now is my moto fly :)

Hello there! I use a macbook to make the process. (no windows machine near). So, my problem was, i didn't format the Ext partition and no work. After the format, i install the Universal Androot, make the process on the Busybox, reboot and that's it. Working.I use a 16gb SD Card, making a 3gb Ext partition. Automatically the apps pass to the card. =D

No glitch at this time, all functions working. :) Nice camera app.

Put the overclock on 900Mhz and the phone are stable, not so hot, everything working fine.

Thanks at this moment. And, if i can be usefull send any file to the brazilian translation, let me know.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Soy_Filipo:
If this rom includes the moto apps, can someone post the system/app and data/app folder? I would like to try something out
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] dennis.busman:
hi ~~~ does anyone know how can i install the " Battery Manager " in other rom ?? like "cm6"

thx ;)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zviki:
Yes,same thing.For the first time something went wrong.Then again I do nandroid backup restore,apply update, install busy box, did system/sd and 2x reboot.Now is everything OK.My mistake was that when I installed the busy box I chose the 1.8-git version.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zviki:
All apps in system/app?That`s a lot... Max. size of attachments here is 8Mb,so... In data/app folder are your installed apps, so you don`t need this folder from another person.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
The original nandroid backup has all the apps. Check OP for link ( multiupload link ).

Regarding extracting the /system/app folder, you have 2 options.

1. Apply the nandroid and use adb/rootexplorer to extract.

2. Use unyaffs to extract the system.img.

The data/app holds the apps installed by the user. Why do you need that?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Soy_Filipo:
Where can i get unyaffs for windows? I havent found a windos version
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
http://m.box.net/view_shared/1eighqsh4s

Download. Copy system.img to the same directory. Open cmd. Go to the directory where you gave stored unyaffs and use the command given below.

unyaffs system.img

thank you thank you thank you :) I tried the Brazil leak before this and found it nice, but too laggy. i considered going back to TelusLiteV5 but thought i'd give this one a chance, and wow, big difference!

And a note to others like me who have used the Brazil version and moving to this one, if you wanna apply the gingerbread theme, download the new one from this thread, don't be lazy like me and use the old one, it will make things go all over the place :p
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] htinaung:
Thanks Sileshn, it was my ignorance that I was using file manager to view system/sd folder and I could see nothing. Now I can see the apps install to that folder using root explorer. App2sd fully working now. after installing about 100 apps I have 130MB free of internal memory
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kuzeto:
Hi I am using latest nandroid with app2ext enabled.

I have two questions. I was using Android commander for deleting system apps but now Android commander say that the phone is not rooted, way? And I have put Launcher Pro.apk in system/app with root explorer but it`s not working. Am I missing something?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] TamirMeiri:
Can someone go through the process in its entirety?

Like, say I have GOT flashed, with CM6.1.2 installed.

How do I get this up and running, and also, is it possible to get CM installed on this and working well?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rampee:
Write to SD

Sometimes, I get a write to SD card failed notification.

I used the camera to take pics, and most pics turn out messed up (color bands in the pics).

I also tried unmounting and mounting the card, issue persists.

Is it due to overclocking? Does anyone know why this happens?

I'm using the first stock nandroid.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] tegezan:
hi... little problem here... i set pattern lock to replace default lock screen... pattern lock works..but why default lock screen still appear before default lock screen..?

That is an issue. It is already known and mentioned in OP.

Second day and using the same battery charge. Some videos, data connection (2g) always, some games (Angry Birds, Mario Brothers Clone), navigation on the aion website (na.aiononline.com) e-mails, calls... everything fine with 50% yet.

Amazing!

Overclocked to 900mhz

App2Sd

Default Theme

P.S: i never see before my phone working so great (even with portuguese from portugal hahahaha), but, if i make it a Nandroid backup now, he will save the App2Sd modifications? i mean, i will need to make all the procedures again or just, in case of something goes wrong, make the Ext partition?

Thanks!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
No need. Backup all and you are good to go. It will backup the ext partition as well.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] wolvie_rs:
Well, after 32 hours of usage, the battery indicator become yellow... i will try to make the battery.bin exclusion, after the new charge.

There is no Russian language in this ROM. Even more - Motorola will not support Russian in 2.2.

Any update about the arabic support, i am using the dexter port of this rom, it reads arabic correctly in the browser app, other than that the arabic characters are displayed left to right (but joined), do you have an RTL fix...

Thanks for your efforts!

I will work on it.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :

Arabic and Russian Language Support

For my friends who were requesting Arabic / Russian Language support, i have created a language pack. This is based on the strings of the 2.2.1 GOT leak, so you might find english at a few places. I did not want to put the effort of creating the missing strings manually as there are not many takers for this and it involves a lot of work.

Use the included morelocale2 app to change your language. Arabic support is very minimal. Russian is very good. I would also request you to consider using the CM6 keyboard application as it has support for many more languages. Please let me know if you find any issues.

This is for the stock nandroid only. Dont use it over my theme or vice-versa . It will break the functioning of the phone.

I'll create a pack for the theme later if i get requests.

Procedure

You should know the procedure by now. If not, copy the language pack to the /openrecovery/updates folder and apply using OR. Androidiani OR 3.3 recommended. Wipe dalvik/cache before applying. First boot with take some time. Have patience.

A few screenshots

Cronos 1.7.1

Does this rom work over the cronos 1.7.1 rom?

I used apps2sd from that rom and did not have to make ext2 partition. Would like to use this rom in the same manner.

EJ
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Froyo style apps2sd is not the same as apps2ext. You need an ext partition for this to work. Regarding whether this would work over cronos 1.7.1, i honestly don't know. You can try to backup your data partition and try.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] efjbdejong:
Ok,

I tried in the past to use ext2, but did not get a partition working.

Making this partition I did not manage, even after trying many times.

Does this rom do that automatically?

EJ

Update: I found your guide to use ext partition.

Can I make the partition using the sd-formatter when it's in the phone? Or must I use an adapter straight in the PC?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
No need. There is a easier way. Copy the contents of your sd card to your desktop. This is using androidiani OR.

Goto eclair modding menu->Menu apps2sd->Split SDcard. Choose the option based on the size of your sdcard. That's all. Your ext partition is created. Then copy back the contents of your sdcard from the desktop back to your fat32 partition in the sdcard.

froyo update by service centres

hi sileshn, just as was browsing thru fbk, saw a thread where its mentioned that from today froyo update is available by getting ur phones to authorized service centres. any ideas if its really happening in india(that post was related to indian users )tnxs
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
I dont think it is the froyo update. I think it is the Motonav update.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] upss16:
tnxs for the quick reply

well tnxs for ur prompt reply, going by the delay in official update i think i'll also go for ur rom in next weekend.BTW can u tell that after first installing OR, if i take a nandroid back up, can i again come back to stock 2.1 update 1 status.

tnxs for ur great support
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Yes. Nandroid will do just fine.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ashet:
I managed to get the app2ext working using sileshn nandroid backup with root and oc only. I just followed the procedure exactly but you need to be careful during the creation of partition using the app sileshn suggested. The critical part is partitioning either way.

- take note of the screenshot in the word doc after the two partition is created. You must replicate it exactly except the sizes. The fat32 should be on top with a drive letter at its side. The ext2 is below with asterisk in its left side.

- when creating the partition for fat32, during the allocation of size, you have to drag the sizing cursor of the bar from right to left. I say this because this will make the fat32 the first part or topmost.

- don't close the mini partition tool after creating partitions. Make sure its detected by windows first so you can copy the files you backed up earlier in the sd card

I tried partitioning using g.o.t. OR 1.04 but I got errors there.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ashet:
Does anyone have problems running angry birds with this? When I try to launch it I only get blank dark display.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] alijs:
thank you sileshn for adding Arabic, we appreciate that though we need to correct alignment.

to do that we need to replace libwebcore.so, but when doing that stuck at moto logo
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ashet:
Sorry for this but i just have to ask.

In Androidiani OR 3.3 there a couple of hacks or enhancements like

- memhack

- dalvik VM Heap Memory

- zipalign

- Pixel Density

Does anyone of you applied any of these enhancements via OR 3.3 using this leak froyo? Thanks a lot.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
I'll look into it.

Edit : Are you referring to RTL support?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] wolvie_rs:
Sure we have interest my friend. The first rom who take my phone to 3 days of use and very fast and stable. Even with GB out for Milestone, it's just to make testings on the weekend. For me, who use the phone everyday, it's important the performance and battery.

Still waiting for portuguese brazilian support, if u can.

Thank you!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Is the Portugese from Vivo Brasil Leak good enough for you? If yes, then i can try incorporating those strings here.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] wolvie_rs:
Sure!! if u can, i appreciate! Thank you. Like i said before, the rom is very, very stable. Using 250/900Mhz, and Conservative, i can open all sites without any lag and everything work perfectly.

Pt - Brasilia Language Support

As requested , please find the Portugese ( Brasil ) Language support. It also includes the following.

3 way reboot mod in power menu

Transparent notification bar

Transparent power widgets

I guess you all know the procedure. Please wipe dalvik / cache, apply and reboot. You should have the language set automatically.

This is only for the stock rom. Do not install over any theme or vice-versa. You will lose functionality of the phone.

Ali, I had a look at that file and i don't think it will work for stock roms as it is CM based. It will work with all CM based roms, i guess. Give me some more time.

btw, there are a couple of lines in the build.prop files like this.

ro.bidi.enabled=false

ro.bidi.Arabic=false

On googling, i found that bidi stands for bidirectional input. Do you know what these do or have you tried changing their values to true?

Hi guys,

I installed G.O.T 2.2.1 on my milestone, everything seems to be working fine, now I have tried to install this nandroid backup but after the restore I get a bootloader error

Err: xx,xx,xx,xx I can't remember the exact numbers.

I tried to do a restore with Open recover 3.3 and the new nandroid backup and then I tried a restore with G.O.T's open recover to restore the backups but nothing seems to work.

I had to reflash with G.O.T's sbf to get the phone booting again.

Can anyone please assist, friends say that this nandroid backup is the best they had so far and the battery is very impressive.

Thanks

Extract the following original files from the nandroid backup and replace them in the theme zip file. The wipe dalvik/cache and apply.

framework-res.apk

android.policy.jar

framework.jar

services.jar

Contacts.apk

Browser.apk

Phone.apk

Settings.apk

Mms.apk

GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk

Note : You will lose the 3 way reboot option in power menu.

I removed it. Its a waste of space according to me.
