7.2.4 is working great here so far!

Can I safely delete the stock Browser, Gallery & Email to replace it with OperaMini, QuickPic & Gmail?

thanks

cm7.2.4 working great here too. the sometimes slowliness from the 7.2.3 is gone. really nice.

you can delete email and browser. i m not sure with the gallery.

From the first post:

7.2.4 (2.3.7) 23.10.2012

- the bad GPU performance on low CPU freq fixed via workaround during init (temporary insmod of stock pvr driver)

- updated kernel:

-- we're now on 2.6.32.60 (thanks to Skrilax_CZ)

-- new interactive governor backported from jellybean (with input-boost feature activated by touchscreen events)

-- camera helper buffer (allocated during boot) reduced by 6MB (thanks to alef78) > more free RAM available

-- optional 5 point multitouch fixed

-- fixed usb tethering (only in the 2nd uploaded 7.2.4 build - sorry for the confusion)

- bootinfo hacks could be removed thanks to new 2ndboot update by Skrilax_CZ

Hi!

Is there a way to disable the zooming animation after I swipe to unlock? I don't need the delay and it's kind of choppy.

thanks
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] jarlaxlebaenre:
Great work by kabaldan and Skrilax_CZ on Milestone but there seems to be a problem with updating my Moto. I'm coming from 7.2.1 and just tried to install newest 7.2.4 but I can't get past boot animation. It just keeps spinning endlessly even if I leave it for around half an hour. When I pulled the battery out to reboot my phone it kept freezing at boot animation. Restored nandroid, tried updating again but the same thing happens. Yes I did wipe cache and dalvik. Any ideas?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
It's probably caused by the too low 1000Mhz vsel (60) in the case of some phones. Try to increase it to 64 - https://github.com/nadlabak/android...mmit/7035e77cd5e5844385da459a4476d1795b455d99

(edit the /system/etc/init.d/10overclock file and replace it in the update zip)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] krondar:
Please, don't keep this vsel's this low in the next version :) Lot of my friends got a problem with it :)

And Thanks! You and Skrilax_CZ made this phone worth using and alive again! :)

EDIT: I've uploaded CM 7.2.4 with kabaldan's original 10overclock from 7.2.3 :)

Did you use a new version of openrecovery with 2ndboot support to flash it? I was on cm 7.2.1 too, I used new openrecovery minimod v0.21 to flash cm 7.2.4 and it works fine for me.Wipe everything before and after applying the update :good:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] genziutek:
Its's possible to change system and data partitions from ext2 to ext3/ext4? I got now ext4 on SD card and work great. Last build on CM 7.2.4 is great :victory:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] burdik:
I use 120mHz as my lowest and 800mHz as highest settings. Together witn an ondemand governor (I may want to try the new interactive one though). I found that this helps battery life as most of the time (60-70%, as I saw in SetCPU before the "time in state" function became broken for us) device keeps itself at 120.

I also set the voltage to something inbetween 7.2.3 and 7.2.4 standarts, althought the device was stable on lower vsels. Just to be sure.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] UnitedOceanic:
could you share you 10overclock file with us?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
I'm missing a confirmation: are there actually particular devices that are not able to handle the freq/vsel combos as defined by the current overclock file on github?

https://github.com/nadlabak/android...b/gingerbread/prebuilt/etc/init.d/10overclock

I'm asking because in the case of the one specifically sensitive device I have a first hand experience with (it was unstable with the 'optimized' values recently introduced), the only issue was the 1000000 freq/60 vsel. Raising just this 1Ghz opp's vsel to 64 fixed the instability, all other vsel values could remain as low as currently defined.

So I'd like to know if it's just a specific case, or whether only the highest opp's vsel is the actual common issue.

Thanks.

EDIT: regarding the 120MHz - occasional silently missed calls are known to happen when frequencies under 250Mhz are used...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] burdik:
I didn't have any missed calls w/120 since the radio panic bugs and muted calls were gone. In russia we also did have a problem w/2g when the data session wasn't properly interrupted on an incoming call and all the caller got was the "subscriber is busy". 120 worked like a charm for me for a long time now. The ringtone also doesn't go back to default anymore. Like never. The last time I saw this was on 7.2.0 when I was doing some heavy work on the device and got a phone call while there was an OOM sutiation...

The only real problem I have is that sometimes when doing 3g Milestone just stops sending/receiving data until switching 3g/2g or airplane mode. This happens only if the signal isn't stable (for me - only in my university, lol)

The 10overclock I used through today is just the same as standart 7.2.4, I just moved freqs from 250 to 800 on 1 position up, replacing 1000mHz w/800 and so on, and as the first step i added 120 on 25 vsel. I think, I can go even lower on this, but let's leave the experiments for the weekend. My vsels for others are default. So, yes, the new vsels are stable.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] duandroid:
I have this happen as well on wifi. All seems connected but it is nto sending or recieveing data.

I have not noticed any random reboots as of yet on the latest version.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] krondar:
800 Mhz in my case need vsel 52, with 48 I have random reboots. Often.

When I was testing 800/700/550/400/250 with 52/50/48/40/32 I got random reboots too. For now I use 52/52/52/40/32 and it's rock solid, so I'n my case - the highest value isn't an issue.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] janosik47:
I do use even lower values and the system is super stable, no issues

freq=1000/800/600/400/250 vsel=55/50/40/32/25
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ugynok:
I have random rare reboots with 1100 64 / 800 58 / 550 44 / 250 39 / 125 32.

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] jarlaxlebaenre:
I've been able to update to 7.2.4 after changing vsel from 60 to 64 but there seems to be a problem with lower frequencies, especially with screen off. Sometimes audio (Music or just incoming call) gets stuck for a second or two and the vibration of incoming calls turns on and off. I have my 'Max screen off CPU freq" set at 400MHz.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] eyupwolf:
Hello I've just installed this update all fine and good but just wondered if someone could help me please with setting up swap partition as I'm getting really sick of opera closing when I'm playing music hehe and I like to multitask.

I have an 8 gig sdcard and I created 3 partitions the fat one for files, a 512 one for apps and 256 mb one for swap (they ext2 or three I am not sure) but I can't seem to find an option in the settings to make android use the swap file, is there a way to make it or some app I can use to check that the swap file is in use?

Thanks.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] UnitedOceanic:
the 512 has to be formated to ext (2 3 or 4 doesen't really matter and afaik it needs to be a primary partition) and the swap has to be formated to linux-swap.

there is a really easy way to do this but it will format your sd card again

use fufus open recovery mod 0.21

it has an option to create the partitions needed and it can install the config file (called 98swapon) that you need if you want to use the swap partition. there is no option in cm setting to enable that! you could try to install it manually. but my guess is that the 256mb partition is not formated to linux-swap.

if you use the swap partition make sure you don't use the compcache/zram option in cm7 settings. that will slow down your system!

256mb swap is to big, it seems that the golden sweet-spot is somewhere between 32mb and 64mb. i use 32mb and are really impressed with it. i can open whattsapp go back to opera mini and the tabs are still open.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] hizperion:
hi, i'm from 7.2.1 and i don't understand anymore

could i just flash the kernel using normal method and update the zip from recovery?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] m0jo:
Just flash the latest version via OR. There is nothing special to do.

If you want to use swap use swapper2 from playstore or create a partation on your sdcard as described few pages back.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] hizperion:
ok cool

do i need to flash the kernel too?

Battery Life Updates

After 7 hours 35 minutes on 2G, my phone battery is still 100%.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] motorator:
What's your battery voltage at this "100% after 7 hours"? What are you syncing, if any?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] BryanChung:
Oh that I did not check.

Syncing nothing. No facebook. Twitter is on PUSH notifications so considered not syncing too.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] motorator:
OT: Twitter has push notifications? Dayummn, this would helluva save my batt... which app? Official app?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
That's a good point. Voltage would range from about 3200mV to 4200mv.

So....

4200mV = 100%

4100mV = 90%

4000mv = 80%

3900mV = 70%

3800mv = 60%

3700mV = 50%

3600mV = 40%

3500mV = 30%

3400mV = 20%

3300mV = 10%

3200mV = 0%

I love the Battery Monitor Widget...

As you can see, it's showing 80% at 3928mV because it's between 70% (3900mV) and 80% (4000mV).

I just realized that it's actually a handy tool to verify whether your battery is or isn't calibrated properly.

I did a nandroid restore today and right now the widget shows 15% at 3647mV LOL

But it isn't the widget's fault because I see that the battery information in Spare Parts shows the exact same information.

Couple of issues. I have been unable to get the app2ext for CM7 to work. My system/app folder is empty. I used the following file and info:

to install:

download attachment

From console:

adb remount

adb push 08mountappext.txt /system/etc/init.d/08mountappext

adb shell chmod 755 /system/etc/init.d/08mountappext

After using the above file I have apps in the sd-ext folder, but again nothing in system/app. If I reboot I lose everything and it looks like a fresh install. I am also having system memory issues. When I go under running apps on "Manage apps" I only have around 22-25mb. And it wont go up. If anyone can please shed some light as to what is wrong. Also if anyone could please kindly assist me in getting the apps2ext for CM7 working that would be wonderful. As of now I have all my apps but if I reboot my phone everything will be gone and doing a nandroid backup or titanium backup does nothing, no apps restored. Thank you an I apologize for the long post, I am just really confused and want to fix these issues. Thank you

What big apps did u install eating most of your internal ROM?

Here I didn't even create a partition but still plenty of space. Make sure u wait atleast three seconds before tapping the Move to SDstorage button or else it fails to move the app
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] scoutme:
I'd recommend an ext partition. Moving to SD apps doesn't move the whole app (the exact proportion depends on developers). Using an ext partition let you install apps and moving libs completely on card.

I reccomend the latest version+swap inbetween 128/256Mb on Ext or third partition and the new Interactive governor (input-boost really works as fast as an ondemand)

3 partitions in that order!

1st one is you sd card

2nd one is your rom memory extended ( not sure of the ext, can someone confirm wich one to use, I do not remember, all I know is my milestone install all the apps on this partion (1024MB)

3rd one is the swap (I'm using 32 MB).

This is I great update ! I can now play drawsomething, witch it was impossible on the previous version! Many thanks
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] CanAndroid:
Good guide, thanks. I prefer the sdtools in FuFu's MiniMod OR - create and resize partitions directly on the phone with no loss of data. It also upgrades ext2 to 3 or 4.

About the ext partition, from what I've read, I believe the debate is between ext2 or ext4, I don't think there's any benefit to ext3. And I think kabaldan has recommended ext4, so that's what I use.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cool bean:
Thank you. So, to do that. I just follow these instructions below ?

"Using MiniTool Partition Wizard

•Plug in you MicroSD HC Card to your computer using the card adapter. (Do not use USB Mount) Do backup

•Open MiniTool Partition Wizard and look for the card

•Right Click on it and select Delete Partition

•Click on Apply to Delete the Partition

•Right Click on it again and select Create Partition

Set the partitions as follows:

1st partition:

Label: Android-SD

Create as: Primary

File System: Fat32

Partition size: as much as you want!

2nd partition:

Label: Android-EXT3 (2nd partition is for EXT which you can use for A2SD or Link2SD)

Create as: Primary

File System: EXT3 (be it a custom kernel or ROM with EXT4 support, use EXT3 still -play safe! )

Partition size: MIN: 256 MB MAX: 1024MB (1GB)

3rd partition:

Label: (do not put anything)

Create as: Primary

File System: Linux Swap

Partition size: MIN: 32MB MAX: 1024MB(1GB) RECOMMENDED: 256MB

•After creating partitions, click Apply to apply changes."
