In the menu, scroll down to apps and under apps you should see chat. I used it once before I deleted the app, rubbish app.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
OK. You have 60MB free in /data, over 300MB free in /sd-ext.

How much free space do you have in /cache?

Please post output of "df" command run in adb shell or terminal on phone. Thanks.

See https://github.com/nadlabak/android_device_motorola_umts_sholes/blob/gingerbread/system.prop#L26

If you're running out of space in /cache, change the dalvik.vm.dexopt-cache-only to 0 in build.prop. You have to reboot to OpenRecovery and wipe dalvik-cache and cache partition after you change the value of this property.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ngonchan:
@Kabaldan: Thanks for replying me. Here is the output of my "df" command: http://pastebin.com/cRtZy4kc

I'll try changing the davik.vm.dexopt-cache-only and post the result soon.

EDIT: Here is the output of "df" command after changing the davik.vm.dexopt-cache-only to 0: http://pastebin.com/VzhuNRdC

Now, my /cache has about 74Mb available, but my internal storage has just about 17Mb left, so I must move some apps to sdcard (with FAT, use android method, because app2ext script does not move apps' data to ext partition) or remove them to prevent "Insufficient storage available" issue from market :D

Hope this'll give you some clues :P
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zammbi:
Getting the same problem. I have like 80 megs free and 4.5 gigs spare on my sd card. I can download huge apps but always invalid package once done. Annoying since I been buying lots of those 10 cent apps and can't try them out heh.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mburrieza:
If you have many apps like me (+150 with all that 10c apps I just purchased), the only solution I found was also moving dalvik-cache to sd-ext (from /data and /cache). To do that you need to replace 07app2ext file from /system/etc/init.d with the file I attached (decompress first), change permissions to rwxr-x--- and reset.

If you have a fast SD card you will also see an increase in the performance. Mine is 16GB class 6 with a 800MB ext partition dedicated to sd-ext.

The only problem is that the card may last less time (Its still years but not 10 years). Anyway I prefer a dead sd card instead of a dead internal memory, much easier to repair...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ngonchan:
@mburrieza: Thanks you, but your script does not move /cache/download to ext partition ;) I modified CM7's 07app2ext and it working fine but I want to notice to nadlabak and see if he can help or not :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] pcphobic:
Agree...that is why I use Friendcaster app.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mburrieza:
Yep, it moves /cache/dalvik-cache and /data/dalvik-cache but not /cache/download. If you set davik.vm.dexopt-cache-only and change the script you should have more than 100MB free in /cache so that shouldn't be a problem for downloads of the market.

Doppler-like sound

I haven't changed any setting regarding the Audio Effects in the Milestone, however I've been suffering something rather curious lately regarding the sound:

All the sounds played through the speaker or through the earphones have a characteristic pattern: it sounds like a fast and constant Doppler effect.

I can listen the notification ringtone, online radio stations, etc. but the sounds disappears and comes back rapidly in a Doppler-like effect.

I would appreciate any suggestion.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zankyw:
In DSP settings: Equalizer, Bass Boost, etc, all of them are disabled for Headset, Phone Speaker, Audio Effects. Nothing changed from the standard settings.

Audio Effects I believe it was removed in previous releases.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Lucasm93:
I'm trying it out, I set it to sync my FB contacts but it's only showing the ones that were already in my contact list. Is there anyway to make it show all of your FB contacts like the official app?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zankyw:
That didn't solve it, thanks anyway.

Also, I didn't mention it before, but the sound doesn't get as much real volume as it used to, probably not even half compared to my brother's Milestone.

As I explained the volume goes up and down in ~ 1 second periods, in a Doppler-like manner.

I am afraid it may be a hardware problem.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] deathnote013:
guys.. i've flashed my milestone with CM7 which is the latest 1 rc15.. almost everything functions well.. but with my camera... it turned out as a cyan, blue pics... what would be the possible solution for this.. i hope you could help me out.. i really like this mod..

as well as whem im using the stock rom which is froyo 2.1.. the camera is working really fine..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] afadel:
What do you mean RC15? The latest one is 7.1.1
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Sushifiend:
Sounds like the same issue arjaycabling has reported a few pages back. See here.

Not that this helps solve the problem, but at least we know it's not an isolated issue. I'd say to check that you haven't selected a colour tint from within the camera settings, but the issue reported looks like only the green pixels contributing to the image, rather than a tint being applied in post-processing. Does the viewfinder image also show the problem, or is it only seen in the final image saved to SD card? What does the live image in another app which uses the camera look like - for example the barcode scanner?

Perhaps try downloading another camera app and seeing if that makes a difference? A lot of people here have mentioned that they prefer the MIUI camera app to the one in CM7.

SF
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] deathnote013:
hmmm... yep the 7.1.1 what im using.. when i downloaded it it has rc 15..

could you please tell me as well if where can i download the mods here.. i could not find the download link.. just a noob here.. trying to gets thing done..

---------- Post added at 12:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:44 PM ----------

thanks sir.. hmmmm.. i downloaded cam 360.. its still the same.. the viewfinder itself has some sort of bug.. i dont know why.. but when i restore it back to froyo 2.1 the camera works fine.. and i was not able to get any picture because once i capture.. the phone crashes.. and hunged..

---------- Post added at 01:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:47 PM ----------

@sushifiend.. thanks for your advise and help.. i really appreciate it.. and this camera app.. of miui.. wer can i actually download it?? or is there any possbile way to revert or perhaps cancell the modification of cm 7 and just overwrite it with camera of froyo 2.1??
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] jarlaxlebaenre:
kabaldan, any thoughts on this issue? Recently, this has become pretty annoying while I cannot watch a 5min video clip without one or two slowdowns.

Another issue I've noticed is that Angry Birds FCs all the time and always with these two lines in log:

12-13 18:17:20.099 E/InputDispatcher( 2054): channel '405460f0 com.rovio.angrybirdsrio/com.rovio.ka3d.App (server)' ~ Consumer closed input channel or an error occurred. events=0x8
12-13 18:17:20.099 E/InputDispatcher( 2054): channel '405460f0 com.rovio.angrybirdsrio/com.rovio.ka3d.App (server)' ~ Channel is unrecoverably broken and will be disposed!

Next question is about a screen rotation animation from few pages back. Is it even possible or is it just so resource hungry that there's no point?

BTW, I've just noticed in RSS that You've uploaded version 7.1.2 but I cannot download it due to 'File was not found' error.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] biggusdoggus:
Same - talk about "yay" instantly turning into "awwwwww"! ;)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] LuigiC6:
I know!!! I formatted my phone and was all ready to download and then I saw the "File not found" :( Hopefully Nadlabak fixes it soon :P
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] i2gh0st:
hi guys

the dam screen just ain't responding now more.

I think kabaldan changed his and this has been asked again but i need new digitizer :D right ?

any link will be appreciated.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] biggusdoggus:
On occasion do you consider the possibility that we really should get out more often?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] LuigiC6:
Sometimes... but its exam time for me, so this is the best distraction I have right now :P
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] enrsil1983:
Now is downloadable. Time to update :)

Thanks again, Kabaldan!

EDIT: Amazing... only one problem: I can't use lib2ext command in terminal... I receive "command not found".
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] biggusdoggus:
Actually - I need to ask please. What do you mean "formatted my phone"? I just wipe the cache's (inclusing Dalvik) then update.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] LuigiC6:
Yup. Wipe Data, cache, and dalvik :P
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ivanoterra:
You know u dont need to do a data wipe to update, right ?

I only do a reset dalvik cache and cache b4 and after the update...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] MasterManson_Gunstorm:
i got won a milestone today and it comes with 2.1 rom brasil claro

this tread it is so big and hard to understand

where i can find the recomended sbf(deblur) to flash on my milestone before apply the 131212 todays release?

(and what i need to follow after this)

sorry for ask it again, i know .... anytime appear a new n00b to ask the same question but... someone can explain in easy steps to me?

i´m using the windows 7 64bit sp1 to try flash the sbf

(I already did it a long time in defy but i not remember what to do before the clockwork mod be installed)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] biggusdoggus:
Why the cache wipe after the update - does that need to be done as well? I don't, but if it makes anything "bigger better faster more" then I'm all for it!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ngonchan:
See here
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] MasterManson_Gunstorm:
does not had a preferred rom to flash?

in defy (for exemple) is the nordic rom after install clockworkmod to apply the cm7..... to milestone is any 1.6 stock rom?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] somecanuck:
You're in the thread for the preferred ROM, check the first post. :)

Thanks again for an update!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] deathnote013:
@sir kabaldan?? im still gettin some issues with my camera with CM7.1.2 the latest one.. i still got the cyan, blue screen in my camera,,i checked the setting.. its all set to default.. is there any possible way to remove the mod of cm7 for the camera and just replace it with its original value from eclair 2.1 which is the stock rom.. (hopeful)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ngonchan:
My camera just working fine, i'm on CM7.1.2, too :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] LuigiC6:
Yea, but I came from a different ROM, so it was necessary. But you are correct. Simply wiping the cache's and applying the update will do the trick.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] deathnote013:
guys i hope some1 could help on how i could revert or somehow remove the modification of cm7 on camera alone.. and just replace it with the stock rom's camera value..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
I guess your camera issue is caused by the fact that you are coming from eclair firmware, not from froyo.

Update your devtree by the attached update package - apply it as an update from OpenRecovery.

Let me know if it helped.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
Let me guess: you replaced the updater-script in 7.1.2 update package without checking whether something changed there first.

Am I correct?

lib2ext symlink is created by the updater-script.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] enrsil1983:
Correct, I'll check it.

I prefer Fonts rather than tts files in /cdrom partition
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
downloadman: I've changed from fonts to tts files for the following reasons:

Unlike tts files, fonts are essential for the system to boot. As the fonts fit to cdrom block very tightly, if someone has too many bad NAND cells in the cdrom block, a font file may become corrupt during the update flashing and the system won't boot afterwards. Storing tts files in the cdrom block is a safer approach.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] enrsil1983:
I know, but luckily my NAND is perfect. I added Roboto fonts in cdrom partition too :)

However with latest Root Explorer version I can create symlinks directly from phone
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] brgroover:
how to implement this in FroyoMod 2.9.3?

- added /etc/powervr.ini for some PowerVR SGX tweaks
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] somecanuck:
Is there anything other than "su" and "lib2ext 1" to do for using lib2ext? I've tried that a few times and rebooted after it gives me the "it'll work next reboot" message, no change. Do I need to manually allocate space to /sd-ext first?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] MasterManson_Gunstorm:
Just to see if I understand right thing

I do not need to use any sbf before installing CyanogenMod this topic

I can use my rom with the 2.1 that this right?

after that I need:

1 install open recovery

2 apply the wipe to date, Dalvik cache and cache

3 apply CyanogenMod7.zip and GAPPS.zip?

and ... finish?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] somecanuck:
Don't forget to change your basebands.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] LuigiC6:
No. You need to update to 2.2 before you flash cyanogenmod.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] jorgemariom:
I installed using this tutorial, it is for Cyano 4 but you must do the same steps

http://www.droid-developers.org/wiki/CyanogenMod_4_Milestone_FAQ

off topic: I hope nadlaback not hear about the droid 4, is a temptation to leave us orphans
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
MasterManson_Gunstorm: yes, you can update to CM7 directly from 2.1 firmware, but you should use two additional update packages (bpsw and devtree):

http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmo...?name=update-bpsw-MSG39UPEU_A1.19_0.90-I4.zip

http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod4milestone/downloads/detail?name=update-devtree.zip

jorgemariom: that 4 stands there for "for" :)

CM 4 Milestone = CM for Milestone
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] MasterManson_Gunstorm:
oh many tanks for all

but... only to ensure...

if i want install over my 2.1-update1

2.6.29-oma1bmqr67@ca25rhe74#1(brazil claro 2.1 rom xD)

1 install open recovery

reboot

2 apply open recovery update

reboot

3 apply the wipe to date, Dalvik cache and cache

4 apply http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod4milestone/downloads/detail?name=update-devtree.zip

reboot

5 apply last CyanogenMod7.zip and GAPPS.zip

6 apply http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmo...?name=update-bpsw-MSG39UPEU_A1.19_0.90-I4.zip

last reboot

and finnaly finish
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] puffo81:
Just installed, updated flawlessly, no issues so far..

great work as usual!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] MasterManson_Gunstorm:
:( i got this message after try apply the update.zip from sdcard (open recovery)

e: cant mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1(or /dev/block/mmcblk0

(no such file or diretory)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Sushifiend:
I believe this is what you see when you haven't installed the vulnerable recovery SBF. Only once this is done can you boot into OpenRecovery.

Full instructions and files required are available at http://android.doshaska.net/rootable

Edit: On second thoughts, you might have a corrupted SD card. Copy its content to your PC and then reformat it. Then copy everything back...

SF
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] papadawgg:
great build, as always, kabaldan. very smooth and faster than the froyo roms for ms. my only suggestion for the next version would be to make the scrolling in the mysic player as smooth as at stock, if possible. anyway, its very impressive how you made gb that usable for milestone.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] florinash2006:
Just one thing that would make this ROM perfect: the ICS animation when turning from landscape to portrait mode.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] adistf:
i subscribe to you.would be damn awesome.then i can love my ms unconditioned =)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Lucasm93:
Flashed the latest and it ate 30mb of my internal memory compared to the 7.1.1

But no problems other than that.

Thank you kabaldan!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zammbi:
Just tested out an apple magic mouse on the milestone, which worked great to my surprise :)

Shame the milestone has no video output.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] m0jo:
Also +1 on that!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] moe6:
reformat your SD Card. I had this issue also when I first got my milestone and wanted to flash a ROM
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] HinotoriBR:
A question about "lib2ext 1"

Once I use it, lets say I install some new apps, and some of them have their own libs.

Will those libs get moved automatically in the next phone reboot? Or do I have to call "lib2ext 1" again?

Also, if for some reason I find an issue, is it possible to revert back by using "lib2ext 0" or something similar?

Thanks!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] MasterManson_Gunstorm:
thanks to all again

to work very well o got flash the sbf on shadowbr repository and after this i got apply the cm7 and the gapps

but sometimes .... the screen got a crazy responses but after i got to lock screen and go back again the crazy responses stops

edit:

I'm used to defy the

and I'm still puzzled by the lack of internal memory for apps

but ... I decided to play everything in the sd-card

I'm just sad for swapper

it does not work well in milestone
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ngonchan:
The same question with you :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mburrieza:
7.1.2 working great. Thanks Kabaldan for all your help.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rogeriodeluca:
After upgrading from 7.1.1 to 7.1.2 any application that uses the default camera application started to force closes.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] somecanuck:
No camera issues here (used it twice this morning), but I did notice the 30MB of internal memory gone as well. Any idea what took it up, and is it optional?

I still can't get the lib2ext thing going either. I wouldn't care if not for that 30MB. :P
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] adistf:
hey,i have a problem.i dont know it's related to CM but...so,today i bought an unlocking code to unlock my phone.i followed instructions step by step,i entered that code 3 times,digit by digit,and it said it's wrong :/ i watched on youtube and i noticed all gyus over there had stock rom.it's possible to have problems with my unlock code because of the rom?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] sagarparmar:
Okay, Here comes some weird questions: (on 7.1.1)

1. My camera key has stopped working somehow. So how to go in the recovery mode. ? I am just stuck at ! mark screen. When I press Vol UP + camera key nthng happens. :(

2. When I start the phone, it randomly starts camera app and starts taking photos. I guess because of camera key issues. So I froze that app from Titanium backup. So no camera app for me.

3. Draining battery like hell. spare parts showing a process named sh taking a lot of CPU. In about phone->battery use it shows android system 70%. Phone 99% of the time awake.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ngonchan:
If you're on CM7.1.1, everytime you boot into recovery mode (using power button or Quick Boot app) CM's auto log you to recovery, no need to press Vol UP + camera key.

You can use Camera360 app and its touch button to take photo in case you freeze your default camera app.

IMO, you should change/repair your camera key and see if it fixed these issues or not.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] sagarparmar:
Yeah, it should take me to recovery when i reboot into recovery but It takes me to a screen where I see !Mark (and then you have to press Vol UP + camera key). So not sure why it is not taking me there but other ROMs actually do that.

Yeah, I will get my camera key repaired and see.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Babis_ECE:
7.1.2 works great here, and I got a very nice battery life of 1d and 18hrs (until it reached 15%) without 3G.

Only thing is that I can't play games, Angry Birds Seasons and Air Penguin for example.

Do you have any ideas how I can free some more memory so I can play them? I only want to play these 2 games..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cronot:
For the people complaining about ~30mb less internal memory: That's because the dexopt-cache-only option on /system/build.prop is now off by default (it was on by default on 7.1.1 and before). That means that app cache is no longer stored all on the /cache partition (which freed more of space on the /data partition - internal memory). Now, only system apps' cache are stored on /cache, which is Android's default behavior. Nadlabak reverted to this behavior because there were complaints about people having problems with market downloads / installs / updates, and other strange behaviors which are dependent on available space on /cache. You can re-enable it again by going into recovery, editing the file /system/build.prop and setting the option dalvik.vm.dexopt-cache-only to 1 , then wipe all caches and reboot.

Regarding camera issues, no problems here.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] somecanuck:
Thanks! I'm going to try that now. I had to add ADWLauncherEx back in there anyway, and change my physical keybloard layout.

EDIT: Worked great, gave me another 27 MB internal. Thanks again!

+THANKS.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
SIM unlocking is not connected to custom ROMs. It should work fine, maybe you got ripped off? :$
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] i2gh0st:
try

adb reboot recovery

it should go to recovery

but why aren't you rebooting from cm7 by holding power button - reboot - recovery ?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] adistf:
i bought it from a high rated site :/ but...i dont know :|
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Well best thing to do, do a nandroid backup, flash back to stock, try to unlock. It's like 10 minutes to do that.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mburrieza:
I unlocked my phone with the code that my carrier gave me after the contract was over without any problem. I did it 3 months ago, so not the last cyanogen version but for sure that you can do it with cm7.

The options are:

1) The code provided was wrong (very common to miss some number during the input in the system that provides the code). You can tell them to verify if the code provided is correct and recheck the info you provided.

2) If you bought a used phone, maybe other tried more than 5 times a wrong code and now the phone is locked forever....
