Same issue with the LED's I have reported earlier as well, I saw you mention days ago about the sensor. But it doesnt matter if it is bright or dark they do not turn on when phone is restarted until I cycle through all the brightness levels with power widget.

I used Z-DeviceTest to test the Light Sensor, and it always shows 0.0 and --- for Light intensity. The light sensor doesn't seem to do anything at all now.

edit: Okay, I take that back. Seems it was the same issue as the 4 button lights - once I cycled through all the brightness levels with power widget, I am now getting a reading for light sensor also.

Dexter take a look at sysctl app Very nice :)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
v1.1b patch update

I have uploaded a patch update. v1.1b (2.2.1 update only)

this adds more functionality to existing version.

- HDMI settings options added.

- new sensor module (through z-devicetester looks better distance wise)

- facebook app still included.

EDIT: forgot some addon's

- Support for loading overclock module at startup.

- apps2ext partition support , will mount at startup if a 2nd partition is found.

its not advanced, so you need ext2/ext3 partition for now.

(someone please confirm if this is ok., i cannot test so easily atm)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
i tried the same, it seems to have lower sensor values, but if you do put right in front of a lamp, it does shows difference in values.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Woody_XDA:
Yep, I have the same, I even tried reformatting the sd card from the 1.1a rom and resynced and still no music regardless of what player I use.

Any ideas?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
Is the mnt/sdcard /sdcard thing fixed?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] R-D:
Why facebook.apk? Is there something different with your version than downloaded one?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
Facebook wasent updating for some reason and Dexter fixed it so this one does update......
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] R-D:
Hmm strange, mine has been updating in 1.1a no problems.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ronnbon:
please don't ask that here again: we discussed that thoroughly.

No- because 1. we would need a official gingerbread first, like the motoroi froyo update, because of locked bootloader 2. this is not about gingerbread, just about froyo.

In considerations of Dexters great work on this project and that he is still working to improve it- it is not really appropriate to ignore this and ask for something new... just my 2 cents
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
Im working on a cutdown of the image, so it can be installed on 2.2 korean sbf.

this will offer users with no sd-ext partition, to have alot more storage left in data.

as the 2.2 edition got 120MB more storage in /data than the 2.1 edition.

but it got less /cache (probably not important to many)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
Agreed!

Seriously dude....
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
OHHHHHHHHHHHH SNAAAAAAAAAPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!

APS2CARD!!!!!!!! Working sweeeeeeeeeeeettttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt!!!!!!!!

Thank you thank you thank you !!!!!!
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ronnbon:
after patching?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
Wait i think i spoke too soon.......... still on T...... Oh booted!!!!

Yes confirmed!!!!!
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
Reboot after confirmed install Reboot so second reboot ( this is usually where the phone falls to $417.....

Long M... Long T.... long...... long.... (>_< Ninja poop).. long long.....longtime..... :O crapy boot up sound :O........ :D Apps2card weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
ps: note at first bootup, it will copy the /data/app files to your sdcard, if you got some.

hmm, im not sure i understand? does the extX partition makes it really slow or? do you have like 100s of apps to scan?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
Slow SDcard....... Class4
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] R-D:
Sensor behavior in 1.1b seems to be the same as 1.1a.

I still can't use Google Sky View properly, compass seems to have an issue where south seems to go through a wider range or degrees than it should, and then north has about a 5 degree area before it starts spinning east or west very quickly. Same behavior in any compass app I play with, the compass "sticks" around South more - only way I can explain it. With my wife's phone (still on 2.1) in same position, compass working normally still.

And even when light sensor is turned off, it still seems to be needed to have bright light shone on it to "wake" the 4 LED's.

Would still like to see the volume control switched (if possible) when in landscape orientation as it is in 2.1.

Thanks!
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] R-D:
HDMI Settings

Not sure if this can be changed, but the new HDMI settings for 720p or 480p do not specify 60hz (NTSC) or 50hz (PAL) as they did in 2.1, which is it using?

2.1 settings were (in order):

Automatic

480P @ 60 Hz

720P @ 60 Hz

576P @ 50 Hz

720P @ 50 Hz
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] jetx10gerff:
after the patch update the sensor buttons don't light up at all
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
Phone is alot snapyer honestly.

Facebook working

HDMI settings are there missing Hz options... but i think that is native to 2.2.1 ....

testing cam...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
so market is filled with motoroi/xt720 models, and people dont note the difference, i got lights in my panel here :-( so i guess its actually a motoroi device with different hardware.

i am 100% that my panel lights are on always (expect after exit of camera app)

i ported the korean settings functionality, and there is no 50/60 hz options in it.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
i think you need to remember that you got a TVOUT option to switch PAL/NTSC now, which also will affect hdmi hz.?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] R-D:
Ah, seems there is no need for the 60/50hz options, there is another new menu called "TV Out Settings", in here you can pick NTSC or PAL.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
I have milestone XT720 and Lights are fine man
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
The panel lights work great for me after applying the 1.1b update. [They do turn off based on ambient light during the lock screen (WidgetLocker) but I don't care if they're on then. I have not seen them turn off after unlocking.]
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
Light sensors are perfect on mine seriosly i think they work better that stock.... :O
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
I failed. Without AutoKiller I basically see 20 MB free and the phone is laggy as hell. I haven't had the XDA problem after abandoning LauncherPro.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
Yeah!!! no more CAM llagggg WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEee

Had a few initiall crashed with Apps2card though but no corruption but im OC ing so dont count

Cam internal review shows pictures fine but will not show video but no video lagg either

Ram is arround 44Mb but i have widgets must be arround 50 to 55 stock im guessing...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ronnbon:
After trying so many times, reformatting, rebooting, copiing ext2.ko file to the phone and so on this is the first time that apps2card works for me!!! THANKS!!!

Edit: launcher pro backup is possible now.

Metamorph works too- great!!! :D
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
please direct me for the sbf you can install and where sensors work for you, ie. lights on always, because the basics on the sensor, might just be custom for that sbf you normally use with 2.1, and ill try and look at it..

I have no problems fixing it, and include as "addon", if we are dealing with old/new xt720 models, where some might be motoroi models :-)..
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ronnbon:
I know- I also have quite a lot widgets- since they cannot be moved we have to accept that...:o

Edit: lights are working for me. Second USB sign problem is fixed too. :)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Also, I'm not sure if this is related to 1.1b, but the builtin Home seems to understand that the app list has to be rebuilt for app2sd apps after the SD card has been remounted following USB mode. The SD card media scan is still not correct, though.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] R-D:
Dexter,

Doing some reading on compass, and wondering about: /system/bin/akmd2

From what I am reading it related to compass/sensor functionality also, and I am wondering if it is possible to try old version? Or is there some dependency somewhere for specific version?

This may be completely impossible, I am just trying to research the issue.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
Very good Version evrything works so far exept review vid in camcorder
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
motorola uses same hardware on their many models, and even htc uses it.. i can try to replace it, but i dont see any problems having compass pointing north here, no matter which way i turn my phone , north seems ok for me here?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ronnbon:
thats okay, aren't it? :)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] R-D:
I know it is hard to fix something that is working for you. :) Have you tried Google Sky View? Problems are more apparent for me here due to how it uses the combination of sensors.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] pritesh_100_in:
hey..i.m.new..to..this..update.thing.1.1b please...provide..me..with..the..steps..i..m..curently..using..1.1a.version

Confused....about...where.to.paste..the..files.of1.1b .on..the.Sd.card
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ronnbon:
He wrote where to put the patchfiles...:confused:
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] R-D:
I think your spacebar is broken?

Anyways, put the update in your sdcard under /OpenRecovery/updates/ folder, boot into OR, select Apply Update, select patchv11a-update.zip
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] 3rdstring:
Initially I thought the same thing regarding compass calibration but if I go into Ulysse Gizmos & do the "figure 8" that I did with the compass calibration setting in 2.1 the compass calibrates itself & everything works good.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] pritesh_100_in:
true...the..spacebar..broken...and..thankz...guys...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ronnbon:
:D

since when can't one just reply with a single smiley?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Knoedelkopf:
What's about HD Video recording now with version 1.1 with the new patch? Or is it just better with a SDHC card with higher class?

Question about the Patch:

Do we have to UNZIP the patchv11a-update.zip to /OpenRecovery/updates or just MOVE the patchv11a-update.zip to the directory?

I am confused because at the directory /OpenRecovery/updates, there are some .zip files. So no unzipping needed?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
Compass is fine on Bright.sbf tested all sensors wit tricorder all good all no bugg notting
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
I think dalvik is still going to internal can some one confirm?

LOL maby from the APs i left in internal derpderp herp
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] R-D:
I tried many apps, but for some reason now after using Ulysse Gizmos compass seems to work more normally? I did calibrate in a few other compass apps so I am not sure what happened.

Thanks for this app, seems to work better than some of the others too, so compass working ok for me now too!
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ronnbon:
no- just copy the file to the right place
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
ok, i just download sky map :-) nice app btw...

but i see all stars exactly the same way on screen no matter how i turn the phone? except 90degree and text turns too.. i cannot confirm any problems, sorry..
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Knoedelkopf:
Thank you.

And do we also have to make a backup when we use the patch? No, right? Because all data is not deleted, just updated?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
correct, its just an update.. no wipe or so is needed.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Woody_XDA:
Is there any reason why I can't see music or ringtones on the SD card. it seems to be an issue some have experienced on 1.1a, I can use the native app2sd without a problem it is just music and ringtones, is there anything else I might loose on the sd, also is there anything can be sone to fix it?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
use zedge i have no such issues
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
Added stock korean 2.2 with sensor and baseband ok, to post #1.

I find it less interesting, but im sure people from UK might still want to use original 2.2. so here it is..

see post #1 for details.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Knoedelkopf:
THX Dexter for updating the ROM all the time and especially for the development :cool:

I feel that HD video recording is better now, can anyone confirm that?

Where can I change the vsel? At the moment I'm running 1GHz at 74 vsel! That is pretty fast :)

But I read that 74 vsel is not that good for battery, so how to change??
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] gommers1978:
Nobody else running galaxyfroyo have problems with the music app? Problem occures when i click in the" blue" music app Playlists and in the" orange" music app when i press identify song. In both cases a FC occures with closing of these apps. Tried reinstalling but problems stay.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ronnbon:
dropbox issue is fixed also-:)

I have no issues with the functions and apks I use anymore- absolute happy with my xt720 now!!!!
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] 3rdstring:
In Milestone Overclock, you hit the options button & change tor your desired settings then move the slider all the way to the right to select the custom setting & apply.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] 3rdstring:
I see the same thing:(, I had not gotten around to trying the music apps yet, at home I usually just turn on the CD carousel & let it go.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Knoedelkopf:
k, thx.

Is 1 GHz @ 60 vsel alright?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] 3rdstring:
That's what I'm running at.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] 3rdstring:
Create setcpu.txt & place it in the root directory of the sd card.

The file should just contain the frequencies you want on your slider for ex.

125000,250000,550000,720000,1000000

In setCPU, under device selection > show other frequency sets & at the bottom of the list is the selection for custom frequencies.

HTH
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
you can also do this step, and have it added during bootup..

put the lines below into a script named oc-settings and put file in root of sdcard, and it will load right after module is inserted during bootup.

all the details on what values mean below, you can find at milestone overclock

replaced the contents with an attachment file :-)

do note: file is linux formatted, so if the CR+LF is added, it will not load correctly, so use a proper editor for changing the file.

and so i updated post #1 patch, as the wrong oc module was loaded at startup :-( (it works now)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Woody_XDA:
Can anyone who can locate music on their sd card tell me their location as it might be specific to the folders I have, if me ringtones are in sdcard\media\audio\rintones i can see them, so I think its down to my location, all other sd card functions work now just the music.

Thanks.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] mtvdeo:
I wanted Blur so much :(

But at least I have HeLanucher, the Droid 2 Framework, and the new lock style like Blur.

One bug I've had is that sometimes the Browser randomly closes and it goes back to google.com :confused::confused:

But everything else is amazing.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
Seems someone did the legwork getting arabic and russian into the 2.2.1 image, so ill probably make an update so that is included.

edit: seems just to be apk and framework changes, so if you install it, it might just work fine.. but the new settings i made will then be gone..
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] joe206hdi:
Hey there

after testing the 11b i could say everything is fine with me - no problems or bugs ATM.

Looking sometime around i found some issue´s maybe dexter could have a look on it in german stock version the are a few apk to may be added to the MOD.

compasscalibrate.apk -> in settings menu there was a point calibrate compass

DLNA.apk

dlnaprovider.apk -> would be nice to have back

thanks joe
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] TG2008:
Finally, 1.1b seems to have done it! It's not slow anymore.

I'm happy.

Thanks again Dexter.

P.S. Can someone point me to a thread on how to get the status bar transparent? I've tried searching and the few links I found don't work.

Thanks.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
- Dexter,

The download link to v1.1b says im downloading V1.1a...

Im confused...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] dannyfly:
THIS IS AWESOME THANK YOU DEXTOR THANK YOU SO MUCH

Can anyone tell me if this 2.2.1 has wifi tether? like the one in nexus one 2.2?

Does it support app2sd?

Would like to confirm on these 2 things before I flash :D
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
Yes they work!
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] d23wilson:
That update did something awesome...Haha...that's all I know looking at the linpack...scored 1350..highest for me so far. I got no idea what it all means...but if my cam is good for recording and taking photos I am happy.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Did you solve the media player/music scan problem? How?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] metalizer2000:
can i apply this patch 1.1b over dexter's froyo v1.1 ?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] R-D:
I am having a big problem with the stock browser, it only stays open for a few seconds and then disappears. There is no Force Close window, it just disappears.

I have tried with and without FlashPlayer installed on the phone. And I have rebooted with unloaded Milestone Overclock so it is running at stock settings. None of these things have any affect.

I hooked up the phone and pulled this info from the DDMS log, not sure if it is helpful, one thing I keep seeing is that it cant find "lib_glossary.so" but this may be completely unrelated to this issue.

Attached is the section of log from when I am in Google weather & news app, and I click on a news article. I have not yet tried third party browsers, I prefer the speed with which the stock browser opens.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] TG2008:
never mind
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hoomanb:
Thanks!

Thanks for this! It's like my dad's XT720 is reborn again! :D
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] spiderx_mm:
with just 256Mb or RAM, you'd better be stay away from Blur. Even now when I'm opening 4 or 5 apps on my phone, there's only about 20Mb of free RAM left. it'd not be good to add blur on top of it.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] raidontaro:
Hi guys. I just want to confirm. To have 1.1b from stock 2.1, you must apply 1.1 first and then patch it?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Apply 1.1a and then the patch.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] reverendkjr:
Has anyone else tried to change the lock screen to a pattern, or even turn it off?

I've tried to do both and it always wants to bring up the normal lock screen.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] spiderx_mm:
Change the security lock timer to "When Screen is off" and you'll get it. the default is 30 mins, which is way too long.

but ....

yes, even after changing to "When screen is off", I'm still having the normal lock screen at the front. I've got to unlock the normal lock to reveal the pattern lock screen.

Dextor, I think we don't have this issue in 1.1. only in 1.1a and 1.1b this issue is coming up. any advise?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fjfalcon:
Anyone have noticed rom memory leak with 2.2?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] warrenkb:
As far as I can tell (and I have also been told) the reduced amount of memory is due to the actual froyo OS as opposed to a memory leak. This could be one of the reasons moto is not spending any more effort in getting froyo to the xt720 for the rest of the world, poor user experience.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Sorry, I'm slightly lost at the moment. Do we start from the Korean 2.2 ROM or from the 2.1 UK ROM? I've got the Korean 2.2 ROM with Dexter's v2 mod installed. Can I just use the OpenRecovery that's already been installed?

Further denseness: Is there some way to install an apk that does not involve using "adb install" nor installing a file browser from the Market and opening the apk from the SD card?

I had no problems at all and all is functioning as described. :D

After the reboot, I loaded up my google account, got my apps installed, overclocked, ran quadrant, got 1300, cried tears of joy, and now I'm having a beer.

How about we do this...

You script out step by step exactly what you did, and we can tell you how that differs from what we are doing. Keep in mind that the more detailed your description, the better we will be able to tell you what you're doing wrong.

Maybe you could put up a video of what you are doing, or maybe include screenshots.
