Generally how much RAM is free...........? someone post the Screenshots.....of free RAM
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] will5:
30-40MB are usually free on cold boot.

Cifs definitely doesnt work on this build, tried everything :(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] dynamite1985:
How are the reboot loops with this one? I noticed with any CM7-RC3 release (this and IaF's) that it would work for about a day or so, then go into a reboot loop.

Anyone else get this?

Check you animation speed settings (I think it's in Spare Parts). Make sure that it's not at fast/faster speeds.

i experienced a strange thing.

it is only happened when i use a memory eater app (sygic, some HD games, etc..)

the app run fine, i navigate with sygic, or play a massive hd game. everything fine.

then i closed the app, actually closed properly, but next i see the processor usage is still high, not dropped down, not even after a minute. all of running program eat a much more cpu power than before, but the phone goes to sleep well. after i use the phone again the processor usage still high, android system eat ~30% cpu power or more, any small app eat 10-15%, and the most strange is the free memory. i check twice, but i dont believe my eyes, almost 90MB, sometimes dropped to 80MB, but this is extremly high for a milestone. by the way the phone working and i think it is responsive too, a bit laggy but not bad. i cant do anything about the high cpu load, and when i try to start a memory eater app again the phone freeze and rebooted.

i think the problem is, when the memory eater app running the process manager killed some important system task or something, and the whole phone upside down :) i try to investigate the problem (logcat, etc), but only happened when i use a memory eater app for a long time! so if i run some hd game, play for a 5 minute no problem, only if i play for 1 hour.

another thing, it is only happened when the huge program use a 3d acceleration, i try to open a big excel file, i see that is eat a high amount of memory, i "play" with the excel for 1 hour [i have nothing better to do:)] but no problem.

this issue is "missing" from CM6, i try the same thing what i try in CM7.

after a reboot everything is normal.

this is not a high priority issue because at the normal daily use not happened.

only if the phone owner have a free time and play with something...

hi..

I use Androidiani 3.3 OR.. how to apply this update for OpenRecovery (1.46) to support ext2/3/4 from fisrt post..?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] timmey:
With CM7 my networkbased location doesn´t work. GPS location is fine though.

I did a full wipe and reinstalled RC4.1, but that didn´t fix it.

I looked at my logs and it looks like this issue:

kabaldan, you are my personal hero. Waiting anxiously for Milestone ROM release. Thanks in advance!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vadonka:
just unzip the ext4 patch zip to the openrecovery folder and overwrite what is already there. AOR 3.3 based on OR 1.46, just added a few extra things.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] enrsil1983:
The custom ringtones bug is still here, sometimes the phone rings with the default ringtone or even with the ringtone associated to previous caller... can be solved?

Custom ringtones worked perfectly on CM6

EDIT: I try a workaround by replacing phone.apk from latest CM6 and seems perfectly working, obviously need more testing, version 2.2.1 instead 2.3.3. Obviously I got errors on first reboot, phone offline for 10 seconds, then phone process automatically restarts and custom ringtones starts working perfectly. 10 tests with 3 different numbers and also one private call, and no ringtones errors, all tested while playing Asphalt HD until it crashed!

Plus, phone seems to ring sooner than before, even with ro.telephony.call_ring.delay=3000" in build.prop, and have 0,5 MB extra free RAM :)

Only problem, the rotatory "lock to answer" have some graphic problems, now I'm fixing it, probably in incall_touch_ui.xml and similar files in res/layout

EDIT 2: layout problem solved, but after 30 minutes the bug reappear... now I'll try with contacts.apk... I don't know where the problem is located.

EDIT 3: no way, crashes when I open the call registry. Someone have solutions?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] lunzi88:
Help out a noob??

Hi guys, having read about how great the new CyanogenMod 7 RC4 is, I've decided to give it a shot but somehow I've encountered a few problems while trying to flash the rom onto my Singapore Milestone currently running the official 2.2.1 rom. (rooted via Universal Androot)

I tried installing the CM7 rom via ROM manager, but whenever I enter the recovery screen, I could never seem to get into the clockworkmod recovery menu. When I try to click on the apply sdcard:update.zip option, I will always get the follow error

-- Install from sdcard...

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Verifying update package...

E:failed to verify whole-file signature

E:signature verification failed

Installation aborted

Some details I suppose you guys would need.

Android version: 2.2.1

Bootloader version: 90.78

Firmware configuration version: GAS_ASIA_USAMS1FRYORTSEA_P013

Baseband Version: 3GSMEPU91A_U_91.09.04I

Baseband configuration version:UCASHLSMR2EMEAB1B806E.0R

Kernel version: 2.6.32.9-gafbfc43

w21529@il93lnxebld12 #1

Build number: SHOLS_U2_05.26.4

Clockworkmod version: 2.5.0.7

I had flashed the original VR exploit by using RSDlite before when the phone was still on 2.1, so I'm not too sure if I still need to reflash the VR again before I can use the method of using ROM manager to install the latest CM7 build.

Any and all help will be much appreciated. TIA! :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vadonka:
first, clockwork mod is not really working with milestone, use Androidiani Openrecovery 3.3 or Openrecovery 1.46. Flash the vulnerable recovery is you didn't do already (make sure it will fit your bootloader version). copy OR files to the sdcard and the CM7 update package to the OR updates folder, copy google apps update package too. reboot into the recovery mode and flash the both package, first the CM7, then the gapps.

the short version is this :)

any detailed information is here: https://www.droid-developers.org/wiki/CyanogenMod_4_Milestone_FAQ

dont worry this faq is for CM6 but CM7 installation method is same as CM6.

You probably need to set a custom baseband. You can set this up via AOR, but first install all update package and then apply your baseband settings.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Koush's ROM Manager does not work with the milestone. It works on the droid. You need Androidiani OR to flash this rom. If you installed clockwork recovery on your milestone, then you need to flash vulnerable recovery again to get AOR working.

Getting clockwork recovery off the milestone is a big task. It may take more than one try.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] lalit79:
first things first....rom manager and cloclwork mod doesnt work for milestone...u need to use Anrodiani openrecovery

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Thank You :cool:

So it worked as good as hope it does?

That happens if I run Quadrant. SeePU (in the ststus bar) will show the cpu load at 100%
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vadonka:
quadrant is a benchmarking tool so also need a huge amount of resources, like a massive hd game or a 3d navigation software.

so this is an issue :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
No I mean that if I run it and then close it, the CPU remains under stress instead of sitting idle
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vadonka:
and it doesn't dropped below after a few minutes?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
I get too impatient and reboot after a couple of minutes.

But I even tried using freememory recover.

This is like a bomb. It kills everything - apps, system and itself.

It will free up 100 mb of ram but the cpu will remain under stress!

Whatever the bug is, its hard to kill.

Normally, if the phone is laggy, it will feel like a reboot after running FMR
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] framir:
Where can i found it?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vadonka:
you wanna play with freememory recover?! i dont recommend it :) this is only for emergency.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vadonka:
yes, i try something like that.

but strange, if none of monitoring app running just a console and a htop the processor usage dropped below a little, still around 50% but not 100. in that case a monitoring app (usage timeline, os monitor, etc...) consumes a high amount of cpu and when the monitoring app running the phone system app eat more cpu too. the other is that memory thing. why have so much free memory in that case? definetly sure that some important system process killed or restarted, but i cant see nothing strange is logcat, and why happening just when an app using a 3d driver?! damn...

...something is in the phone, maybe a leprechaun, and playing with the cpu :D

one thing is certain, in CM6 this bug is not exist.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] bandroid842:
TWO QUESTIONS:

1- Would you say at this point this ROM is stable and comfortable to use, just as CM6? Is it faster? How about gaming?

2- Does the recent update fix Arabic/Persian support problems?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] joker2mbr:
--UPDATE--

I had previously upgraded my ext2 partition to ext4 using Ubuntu gparted.

I donwgraded back to ext2 and then upgraded it again to ext4 using AOR console (using @vadonka's instructions, post #2606 - Thanks, @vadonka!).

This way, my ext4 partition worked properly, on CM7 RC4.1 and on AOR as well. I could make a nandroid backup and everything worked OK. The ext4 partition was backed up as well.

So, it looks like something went wrong when I upgraded my partition to ext4 using gparted... but everything is fine now. :D

Sorry for the false alarm!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vadonka:
you welcome :) dont forget the thanks button :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] afein:
Hey has any one noticed the flip to silence option has been removed in the latest build.

Or has it just been moved to some other random location?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] baoli:
Exchange email services still being killed. Push mail stops working after a while. Wifi also disconnects and reconnects as well, something I wouldn't have noticed if I wasn't using shoutcast over wifi and the audio just stops.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] joker2mbr:
I did use the "Thanks" button already (on your original post)! :D

What I still don't undrestand is why I couldn't make the ext4 partition I've created on Ubuntu work on AOR. It worked OK on CM7 as all my apps and the Dalvik cache were there, on /sd-ext.

But thanks anyway!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vadonka:
in my thread i suggest some ext4 parameter, you can set this up from linux too with tune2fs. it is possible that you use some option what is not supported the milestone ext4 module.

in linux simple use this: mkfs.ext4 /dev/xxx (whatever your sd card device is)

this will create a standard ext4 fs, what is working well on milestone. after mkfs you wont forget the e2fsck!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Try my new v5 supercharge script.

It will make oom groupings more like cm6 and be alot more responsive too. :)

I've restored CM6. Custom ringtones are one of the most important features that I need in a phone. When this bug will be solved, I will switch immediately to CM7.

Is it possible that nobody cares about it?

However, check my theme for CM7 in Themes section :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vadonka:
i use some random stock ringtone, i dont care really, i use the phone in silent mode almost all the time, but the buzzer is working hard :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Same here. My ringtone is Terminated (yeahhh! xD)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] will5:
You are free to use any rom you want.

"my custom ringtones doesnt work" wont help. There are proper ways to report bugs.

If you already reported the bug on the link made specially for that purpose, Im sure it will be solved.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vadonka:
yeah, hell bad when i sit in the toilet, thinking about a deep philosophyc question and the phone is start ringing :( or when i make love with my girlfried, so... this is even worser :mad:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
I'm not sure what are you expecting from the "final" CM 7.0.0 release. There were no significant upstream commits between the build of 7.0.0 RC4.1 for Milestone and the official switch from RC4 to 7.0.0 release, so what you are running now is in fact almost identical to 7.0.0 release for other phones.

I'll make a new build sometime soon, but only after some new significant fix/feature will be ready. There is still a lot of things to be done, so don't expect that there will be a "final" release and then quiet for a longer time ;).

(When 7.0.0 is released, work immediately continues on 7.1.0 RC0 - it's just a naming and naming is overrated :p )

will5: cifs is working perfectly for me in the latest build, not sure what's going wrong in your case. Can you post the mount options you use for a review?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
So i flashed 7.0 RC4.1 last night (from 4.0). I did it on low battery. Ok, not that low. 30-40%. I rebooted and it was 30%, so I believe I probably did it at least at 40%. Safe enough.

I had it plugged in and I played around optimizing a few features in 4.1 afterward, and battery dropped to 20%. Maybe I didn't plug it in well? I jiggled the USB port and it was definitely plugged in. I saw the charge indicator going, so I passed out.

I got a text this morning, woke up and looked at my phone. The thing freaking died right then and rebooted. I fell asleep, and woke up maybe 30 min later looking at the phone again. It refused to boot!!!

The battery completely drained overnight. I said WTF? I couldn't get it to power at ALL. The Bootloader finally came up and said low power or something unable to program? I freaked out, but luckily I remembered I had an older battery I tossed aside 2 months ago. I slapped it in and it had 70% juice. I plugged it in again and went to shower. Came back it was at 80%. I hope my battery isn't defective, but strange that this happened right after I flashed 4.1.

I can't get my other battery to boot/charge. Perhaps I need to plug it into the wall and not my computer?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mohitrocks:
Can someone please tell me the difference between ext 2, 3 and 4? Which one is better? Is there a significant increase in performance if i change from 2-4 or 3-2, etc?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mohitrocks:
Yeah, you should probably plug it into the wall. Strange though. Im still on RC 4.0 :)

@kabaldan: Im using almost all default options on cifsmanager...

Share path:

10.1.1.x/sharedfolder

Mount Point:

/mnt/cifs/sharedfolder

Username:

xxxxx

Password:

xxxxx

Options:

iocharset=utf8

Settings:

Load cifs module "checked"

Load via insmod "checked"

Path to cifs "as is", I guess there were no change to cifs path...

I was using cifs with the previous cm7 build, all was working great, even the utf8 support. I didnt change anything, just apply cm7 update with open recovery.

I didnt have to re enter any option in cifsmanager, but on all previous configured shared folders and on new ones, I get no such file or directory :(

The error message comes so fast, that it looks like it does nothing... with wifi off I get the same message in the same time frame :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vadonka:
well i think i found the source of the strange high cpu load issue. its the cpu freq or something related with this, so vsel or even the heat.

if i slow down the phone a little, set the phone cpu speed 800Mhz max boom, the issue is gone, i play with sygic and no problem. the app is a little slower of course but when is closed this the cpu usage is dropped down.

i dont know what is the best solution. slower the cpu or kick the motorola ass goes to the moon :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
will5: does the mountpoint dir actually exist?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] will5:
Sure :) And I tested it can be reached from other computers on the lan. Ip´s are right also.

Tried different mount points, with different shared folders on different pc, on the same LAN. No luck.

I´ll charge the phone a little more, and try prior cm7 build.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
I mean, /mnt/cifs/sharedfolder is not a standard folder that will be there after reboot unless you take care of it in some startup script. And the mount point folder has to exist before you try to mount anything to it...

Have you tried to do the mount from a command line in terminal?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] will5:
@kabaldan: I know, I just put sharedfolder to not reveal the actual name of the shared folder :)

Im not really sure how to make things work from command line in terminal.

BUT, I flashed back to 11.04.05 a minute ago, and bum! cifs working great! :eek:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] sdtaddey:
Sorry, but talking about that.... do you know any app which shows the CPU frecuency and also the Vsel the device is running in every single moment?.... I found one but... it's specifically for defy, and to be honest .... it's actually good ( I mean .... as much as I read....because it doesn't work for milestone)

can you help me :confused:

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] m82a1:
dhcp auto assigns ip addresses, no dhcp, you gota set the ip manually. that is what you have to do in your case. and i know from experience that with adhoc you always set a static ip.

Display issue

Best ROM so far, however I've noticed one nasty bug with RC4.1 0.08-11.04.10. It occured after first reboot after flashing. Display turned off and I couldn't turn it on. Altough touchscreen was working it was not possible to wake dislay. After reboot everything worked fine. This issue occured once more after that.

to flash RC4.1 from RC4, do you just wipe dalvik cache? I don't want to screw up my phone so if anyone can reply ill be a happy guy :D

It's always recommended to do a full wipe when flashing ROMs, but from RC4 to RC4.1, you should be fine wiping dalvik and cache partition.
