[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ForMartha:
well, I'm using CM7 one more time (Thanks Kabaldan), Found it perfect for my phone after using lots of other roms.

have couple of qestions -

1. I'm using perfect keyboard and its running as a app all the time, how can i make it somthing native to the system without having to run it all the time? maybe delete the native keyboard app from system or somthing like that? it consumes 8MB of ram (a lot for Milestone).

2. cant use thetering without an extenral app (wich btw works perefct), why is that?

3. after full uninstall and reinstall, every thing worked so fast, but after a day or two it came back working pertty fast but not as fast as it was, why? (BTW did alot of reboots seince but nothing helped restoring the "fast rom")

thanks :]
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Vatazhka:
If anyone is eager to test a new fix for missing text and multimedia messages (SMS/MMS) backported by Kabaldan from his build of CM9, here's the latest build of Kabaldan's CM7.

This also includes all changes to Kabaldan's CM7 branch to date. There are no other changes - I just pulled gingerbread branch from his repo and compiled it.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] CeBits:
1. Even the stock keyboard app is just an apk. If you really want to delete it you can install androidani open recovery and remove it from the recovery menu. I don't know if this will cause problems or not.

2. Wifi hotspot works as it is, but for usb tethering you need the drivers. Its just the way it is.

3. I suspect your Perfect keyboard or an other app you installed after is causing the slowdown. Personally I haven't noticed any slowdowns over time except when new apps are installed and they are running in background. Try clearing cache from recovery.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ForMartha:
1. thanks for the answer. dident work for me (never).. allways its showing that both milestone and wireless computer are connected but i can't get internet access..

2. thanks

3. i cant be sure that perfect keyboard is the reason for slowdows but it consumes ram all the times, even when im not using it.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mrvek:
Thanks for the (unofficial) nightly. Besides messaging fix it has one change: kabaldan has changed fonts to fix incorrectly displayed Romanian accented letter "t".

And Messaging hack should free little bit more RAM because there is no need to keep messaging running all the time.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Vatazhka:
Yep, you're right - there are more changes from the last Kabaldan's build than just the one I specifically mentioned. However, I think that the most recent one is especially important for people who stick to CM7 thanks to its stability (I believe that most "tinkerers" have jumped on the CM9 bandwagon already). It allows to kill two birds with one stone: the Messaging service may be killed when it's not processing a message, thus freeing a few megs of RAM. However, OOM killer will skip it when it's doing important work. It's a clever hack for solving one of the most painful shortcomings in Android!

Hi Kabaldan,and all who are working to improve Milestone, I read about a Mod that seems improve a lot battery life ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1621808 ).

I want to know if it is possible to use it on our phone.

Thanks to all :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mrvek:
Well, cm7 is not to throw away since it has some advantages but cm9 has become very stable and fast. Huge milestone for Milestone. With the new LEDs conf. there isn't much I miss on cm7. It even supports little bit of multitasking. Simply brilliant piece of work (as usual by kabaldan). Even if kabaldan drops further development i'll still keep cm7 for historical reasons at least (to show my kids and grandchildren what can be done if you're persistent and try hard :)) and to play around if I ever get nostalgic.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] _crAss_:
Well it seems unbelievable but multitasking got better with the last unofficial build.

I just clear dalvik and cache and updated the build I had.

Zepelinrox script got deactivated and I run it again.

The first trouble I got to is that it always showed that all memory slots were set to 1 MB...I reapplied and couldn't make the values stick.

But then I thought what the heck, lets try and see how it works. I had web radio open, browsed the net through news and weather with opera mini for more than 10 minutes and also had the messenger running all at the same time and no background app was closed. Impressive and probably due to the sms service not running all the time.

I think that CM7 has better multitasking still than CM9.

Let's wait and see :)

Hi, virtual keyboard (on-screen) does not work. I tried it using handcent and I can´t enable it.

Regards,

Claudio.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Vatazhka:
If you're flashing over an older build, you'll need an additional reboot. The default keyboard has been moved to the SystemUI process to spare memory, which unfortunately requires an additional reboot to fix permissions.

I don't think it will work.

Requirements:

HTC Incredible (preferably)

Kernel with zram swap (for swappiness)

Kernel with init.d support

No swap for poor milli :(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Vatazhka:
These are just a bunch of semi-random sysctl tweaks which may suit a given phone model better than the default settings. Kabaldan has taken care to adjust cache and buffer sizes for memory-limited Milestone, so this tweak may even decrease performance.

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] sfahadzb:
Thanks for the build. Did u try the gingerbread nothemes build? any performance improvement?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] puffo81:
Honestly I think the same =), btw I tried them. They work, or better, the phone completes the boot properly, then if it saves battery or not, I'll tell you in next days! I think it's nothing miracolous, as I think Kabaldan did the same work and optimized too for our device..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mrvek:
As far as i'm aware and if I am not mistaken the nothemes branch for CM7 needs more work.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] enrsil1983:
Slightly modified and freshly installed, thanks. Seems I have 2 MB more RAM at boot
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Fekish:
Thanks for sre i will test it, since 3-4 times a day i cannot talk to people when i answer the phone!

Now i hope the next thing is to fix the on off issue of the wifi! :)

Hi, I apply again, reboot twice and keyboard is working.

Rest of tools/programs seems to work fine.

Thanks!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ForMartha:
hi kabaldan - can you make the incoming call option style same as the lockscreen style .meaning that i want to use sliding tab to answer or the bubble style or reamped style (ad so on..)

thnaks! :]
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] LuigiC6:
That would be in settings...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Vatazhka:
No need to re-apply update, wipe again etc. Just reboot and everything should be OK.

Kabaldan has pulled a number of small bug fixes and translation updates from CyanogenMod last night. The updated build is here. I noticed some of you complaining for mistakes in translation previously, so I decided to share yet another build. I promise to stop building and sharing until something important comes down from Kabaldan ;)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ForMartha:
i saw the settings, but the only option to change the answer is one of the three :

1. sliding tab

2. rotary

3. ring
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] LuigiC6:
Did you not say sliding tab or ring?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] dstruct2k:
I think he's looking to have all the same choices for both lockscreen and incoming call, including skins/themes.

dose our milestone a853 support emea,apac 2100/850 baseband ?

my provider (pelephone israel) support only 3g with two alternative band:

850 (fully cover) and 2100 (high speed, partially cover).

in device setting i saw only 2100/900 baseband for emea,apac. therefore i can use only the 2100 band and lost connection here and there.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Vatazhka:
I won't promise anything... I'm neither going to provide a service competitive to yours (which is much appreciated, BTW) nor going to become a hardcore "thanks" hoarder. I just thought that a build I made for myself could be useful for some users who don't want to set up their own build environments. I build when I have both time and a need to (i.e. when there's a change which I find useful). I'll try to highlight any changes which I deem significant, but I'm not going to publish a detailed changelog. I hope that's OK.

Thanks for everyone that build flashable roms.

Today I had a chance to exchange my Milestone with a SonyEricsson Xperia Mini Pro (sk17i, not the crappy x10) but I kindly refused... Milestone fits best to me.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
There are two different Milestone hardware makes.

1) b1b8 that supports umts bands 1 and 8, which means 2100 and 900 MHz

- sold mostly in Europe, Middle East and Asia/Pacific

2) b1b2b5 that supports umts bands 1, 2 and 5, which means 2100, 1900 and 850 MHz

- sold mostly in Latin America, Canada, Thailand, New Zealand and China

So to be able to fully use the Pelephone network, you'd need to have b1b2b5 phone.

The baseband selection option in CM for Milestone is there to make the CM compatible with both hardware revisions, but it can't make the phone to support the bands that the phone's hardware is not capable of using.

If you have b1b2b5 phone, e.g. the Thailand or New Zealand baseband should work fine for Pelephone.

It's working for me. Did you switch to USB mass storage after plugging to PC?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] nabuhonodozor:
For me personally its okay. After long break there was new release which is great. It would be superb to have changelog but hey, I presume its the most boring thing to do :-D

Thank you both!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ForMartha:
that's the option I wanted.

BTW I'm using ext 2 (or 3, I cant remmber) and using a class 4 SD card.

my phone is kinnda laggy, If i would replace the card for 10 class one. would it make any diffrance?

BTW didnt get answer of another question that I asked.

I'm using Perfect Keyboard, and on running services, it is running nonstop. could it make my phone slower?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mrvek:
Perhaps I was slightly vague. Main point was that it was "difficult" to notice that your post actually contains an update/link (for me, ofcourse). Perhaps you could consider spearating link to download in its own paragraph just so it can be more noticable even at frist glance.

Regarding changelogs - for me it took less than 2 min. to make that last one, it is all copy-paste plus a deletion here and there to keep it aligned. And I guess changelogs i post are far from detailed and complete.

As for "thanks" button - it is a method of showing apprecation for usefull posts which is much better than cluttering thread. Other than that it has no real value.

Btw., your nightlies are also very appreciated, especially becasue i rarely use cm7 these days since cm9 is one brilliant piece of work and works for me just fine.

Could you try to plug in usb cable then unplug and then plug it in again?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] CeBits:
1. Take a look at this topic. I explain what improvements can you expect when going from class 4 to class 10. In short, no for the most things since even class 4 cards read at greater speed. the 4 is for writing.

2. As I mentioned before, probably yes. Many of the 3rd party keyboards caused lag on my phone and delayed typing. Most notably SlideIT Keyboard.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] enrsil1983:
I have a 16 GB class 10 card and video recording now works perfectly, no more lag and frame drops that I experienced with 16 GB class 2 microsd. But reading speed is identical, tested on pc (HDTunePro) and phone (AnTuTu), so no difference when launching apps and games.

CM Keyboard is perfect for me because use less memory than the others I tried. However I use it rarely... we have a physical keyboard :-)

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mrvek:
I'm not sure about adb-usb. I keep adb on and do not have that kind of problems with USB.

Hearts king: you could try to re-apply rom update. I have no clue what could be wrong. Perhaps there is something written in logs, error after you connect usb?

I can say this update has fixed my incoming call troubles!

I do have another issue that is annoying, that is the inability to connect to wifi, to a router with Wi-Fi N (on the 2.4ghz band) enabled. When I disable Wi-Fi N, i can connect fine. However that is not really an option for me, as Wi-Fi N is quite fast. Any ideas?

Thanks.

---------- Post added at 11:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:51 PM ----------

UPDATE BELOW!

Never mind - i found the fix.

Turn off wifi, browse to /system/etc/wifi, mount to r/w, open the tiwlan.ini file, change the "WiFiadhoc = 1" line to "WiFiadhoc = 0", save the file and retry. Works great for me, now i can connect the phone to my main router which uses wifi n. :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Fekish:
I am really laughing with my Milestone. I will keep it until i see till when it will literally die...

Two days ago when i turned it on the vibration was fully non stop!

Then after a restart it wasnt connecting to a network.

Then after a restart it was saying continiiusly forcee close of various applications.

Then on the last restart, i notice that when i am on flight mode wifi is turned off. When i turn off flight mode wifi is turned on and is searching for wifi. And because i have a problem with the wifi last 5 months it doeesnt find any network, is just searching.

Life of my stone is 2.5 years now non stop :-)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] dstruct2k:
Try disabling your task killer apps, they're totally useless if you just turn on back-to-kill and kill apps when you think they need to be killed.

Your task killer is probably killing the USB service.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mooving:
I don't think problem exist because of taskman/killer app because I don't use them since ages ago

But I do think taskman app deserve some credit because from my experience it DOES improve batt/performance during EARLY ages of android

I do suspect this cause by the recovery, because it exist since flash the CM9 nightlies build with bad USB.

Not to say open recovery is a bad recovery but just that maybe it just too old and need major overhaul to compatible with newer OS

silent call fix

I saw in Pavel commit that few days ago he insert a workaround for libaudio in order prevent the silent call issue. I have test it and didn't experience silent call since.

In order to use it you should use the last build (by MRVEK) that conclude this workaround.

Did you tried suspend & unsuspecting the call? It's a known issue.

Guys can someone please post the unofficial update on page one?

I think is unfair for some users that missed a couple of pages in the topic to continue having some problems with their phones, although they have been fixed.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] LuigiC6:
First off, REALLY? UNFAIR? You think your entitled to these updates, when no one is obligated to create or give them to anyone? A simple request for a link to any updates would be more appropriate.

And second, there are some buttons at the top and bottom of the forum pages with some numbers on them. Those are to go through the thread. You can use those to go back, say a page or two and find the latest update compiled by mrvek (created by Kabaldan).

Best of luck :)

Gingerbread core with ICS style, using Holo Launcher as default (one of the quickest launchers I've ever used on GB) with a few stylish mods. I'm not promising anything amazing (or soon) but I hope for a low-RAM usage, ICS-style version of GB that leaves your system running smooth and fast.

I know there's already a GB ROM that's skinned to "feel" like ICS, but I'm more interested in speed than "feel", and that ROM honestly seems more bloated than most carrier ROMs.

I'll start piecing things together over the next week and maybe have a test build to share sometime in early June... :)

Swap is not possible for the motorola milestone yet.

Swap can only be used if the kernel supports it, our milestones kernel doesn't support it and due to the locked bootloader the kernel can not be changed.

Skillraz_cz (i'm sorry if i spelled the name wrong) is workin on a module to enable swap but i dont know how long it takes and if its possible. Maybe we will never get swap.
