I have big problem with cyanogenMod7 looping after installing...i did all installations from installations guide and still nothing it keeps looping after reboot i have waited for 15 or 20 min and nothing...need help...also i have done nandroid backup
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Lilim:
You mean you restored the nandroid backup after flashing CM7? If yes (as I did - I restored the data partition god knows why) than that might by your problem.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] inkognito3:
after installing CM7 it loops and loops and nothing...after that i had to restore all of data sys etc and now my phone works but not on CM7

Hi, watching some youtube videos with wired headphones, everytime I disconnect the headphones, music player launches itself and start playing music, is this normal?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Lilim:
Oh, so I understood you wrong, sorry. If you haven't restored any data from nandroid backup on the newly flashed CM, than I don't know what might be causing such a problem. Seems that someone much smarter will have to take a look here, sorry.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Lilim:
OK, another thing. GO SMS is supposed to work with the stock SMS app. Now, after rebooting the phone, AMM doesn't show GO SMS anywhere, but SMS notifications work well. In both cases - now when it works and previously when it didn't - Messaging was visible in AMM with OMM of 0, so this doesn't seem to affect anything.

I'm seriously getting lost and maybe I shouldn't provide all this informations. If anyone needs some specific info - just ask, I'll do my best to reply as quick as possible.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Chad_Petree:
thank u! i managed to do it, lets see how it behaves today ;)

I NEVER turn the gps on, i have 3g enabled and play lots of music , the three apps i use the most are twitter,whastapp and the music player :/

You're on 02.06 or 02.07? I did see it in 06 but not in 07. If you're on 07 could you please point out the exact menu in cm setting?

After upgrade from 06 to 07 the % battery till shows in status bar, i did not check in cyanogenmod settings, ^_^.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] pomac:
Yep, i have the exact same problem, seems to be related to WPA2 PSK, ie - works with WEP or WPA PSK TKIP....

I have yet to find a viable solution - and since this is a early alpha, =)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] afadel:
Probably because you didn't wipe data. Since I wiped data the config has been deleted and there's no option in the menu anymore. I think is the answer. Thanks!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mav3tan:
This alpha ROM is pretty awesome so far after half a day of use. Seems to be really fast!

Some observations:

1) wifi & signal strength symbol turns white when there is no internet connection

2) screen on & off animations worked for awhile, then it stopped working :(

3) no paid apps tab in market (I've used Market Enabler of course), but I can see featured paid & search for paid apps (could be just me since it's my first time on the new market) anyone?

No problems with wifi so far. Tried on 2 routers on WPA/WPA2 PSK mode. Haven't try one with WPA2 PSK only though
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] wisefreakz:
Same here... and worst...100% white...only battery has color.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] o2xygen:
Did you change the animation speed from spare parts? On and off animations are disabled when you change the speed, CM7 its still beta so such behaviour should be expected here and there
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] motorator:
From this post by TheFluffyOne:

According to the Android 2.3 user manual:

"Network status icons turn green if you have a Google Account added to your phone and the phone is connected to Google services, for syncing your Gmail, Calendar events, contacts, for backing up your settings, and so on. If you don’t have a Google Account or if, for example, you’re connected to a Wi-Fi network that is not connected to the Internet, the network icons are white."
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mav3tan:
Apparently it's supposed to be like that:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11189712&postcount=264

yep I did, thanks for the tip. Still no animation after I set it back to normal. I guess I have to reflash the update.zip

EDIT: changing animation speed back to "Normal" did the trick

I am thinking of it, but these couple of days I don't have much time due to exams in my University. I was hoping for a solution, just to get the keyboard working in my ROM.

Kabaldan:

I think there may be a memory leak somewhere. When i first boot up the phone in storage memory i will have ~100mb free. After a days use with no reboot it will drop to about 70 mb then progressively continues to drop. A reboot will bring it back up to about 100mb. Any one else seeing this?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] handsomeboy1702:
yes!

btw, I can't seem to be able to receive text messages. I can send sms, but I just can' receive any

You are right my friend. All ok now... i was missing my google account.

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] latino147:
If you ran the script and the Launcher doesn't get killed, AND you have a lot of other services running, then your free memory could be so low that when you open a messaging app it gets killed inmediately bc the launcher won't.

I think I had the same problem with Whatsapp, whenever I opened it I saw a few usericons being refreshed and then it quit inmediately. Maybe because the system ran out of RAM?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Lilim:
Problem is that the system indicates about 50 MB of free RAM, that's why I don't think it's a low memory problem. Besides I don't really have a lot of services running.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] latino147:
Hmmm, in that case I'll leave this question to the second line helpdesk: the guys who DO know what they are talking about....:D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
In AMM, try lowering the 4 slot (for hidden apps) down to like 6 mb so that hidden apps don't get killed first and see if the SMS works properly
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Lilim:
Now I'm completely lost. GO SMS is now listed as a Content Provider (if it's turned on, no other GO SMS processes in AMM). I lowered the Content Provider to 5 MB (so it should not be killed) and it works. But here things start to get strange... I reverted the Content Provider setting to 30 MB - no SMS notifications. Switched again to 5 MB - and no SMS notifications.

I got a little pissed off and set all three - Hidden, Content and Empty to 0. And no god damned SMS notifications. The stock SMS app works well and GO SMS works fine for some time after the reboot.

PS. And why the hell Android System process takes up 75 MB? o_O

EDIT:

OK, it seems that CM7 has some problems with memory management. After 6 hours since boot I have only 20-40 MB of free memory with NO processes apart from the standard Android onces and AMM. Every app I run gets instantly killed after switching to another, because of 6, 10, 24, 30, 40, 50 minfree "policy". Lowering these values make the phone run out of memory in most cases, so either way my Milestone becomes unusable.

I am aware that nadlabak works hard on this project and I'm extremely grateful, but it seems that having two Milestones one can have two totally different experiences.

Angry Birds RIO

Hey, have u all tried the latest Angry Birds RIO? It's awesome! I love it! :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Me too, it's better than normal or seasons version :p and to be ontopic, it's working perfectly on CM7 RC3 :P
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
Lilim:

I bet your system process does not take 75MB, that's only the useless Rss number AMM is telling you. (Try to sum the Rss values of all processes - you'll see that the result is much bigger than all RAM in your phone).

If you want to see how much memory a process takes, use procrank in terminal or adb shell and look at the Pss values. Or use ddms. See http://elinux.org/Android_Memory_Usage

Have you tried to use the default memory killer parameters as are set by the init scripts? What do you mean by "make the phone run out of memory"? 0MB free RAM and no processes that can be killed by the low_memory_killer?

Btw., AMM is not fully gingerbread compatible - there are more than the six groups you see in AMM defined in gingerbread. E.g. try to find the music player playing in background in one of the two AMM's grouped process lists... You won't see it there, because it's running as Perceptible Application - group that AMM doesn't know about/does not display.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Hmm... 6 days passed, we should expect the new update soon :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Lilim:
OK, I'll take a look, but I also thought that there might be something wrong with the numbers :D

I tried the default values (for about 3 days or so) and I encountered situations in which the system became very laggy and the "Running Services" in Settings indicated 0 MB or free RAM. Seemed to happen randomly.

I'll try to disable the zeppelinrox's tweaks (so it should work like the "stock" CM) and check if the SMS problem persists, or not (I hope not, because after few days of using CM I can't imagine to get back to official 2.1 or the newer 2.2...).

Oh, and kabaldan - thanks for your hard work :)

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Fekish:
The last week had its up and downs. Until i changed the boot.img and downloaded and used VM Heap tool and Auto Memory Manager. Since then the phone is super super super fast for basic use, and one program at a time.

However when at some points a lot of programs are being used, it either freezes or at some extreme instances restarts.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
If you are on Androidiani OR,go to Application Management, and search in System or Internal apps. Than just click on it, and press Yes twice( to delete Facebook completely)

@afadel look at your PM's.

Thanks. Tried the new stock ROM.

OpenRecovery works fine. No problem starting OR.

Did a nandroid before using RSDLite to flash the official SBF. Nice things about new stock ROM:

1. New MT keyboard

2. Wifi Hotspot

3. Speed boost apparent.

4. LauncherPro actually feels fast now

5. Root via OR works.

Hi all, just a quick question about gaming with the Milestone in CM7:

Yesterday I installed 2 new games, Angry Birds Rio and Asphalt 6 from Gameloft.

Angry birds plays flawlessly. :)

But, Asphalt 6 starts, plays the intro video, I can wander around the menus, but when I start a race (Free Race, Carreer) app closes. It must be due to our Milestone's low free RAM. My Milestone has between 50-65 mb free all the time.

Is there any way to free up more memory so to play a descent game? Or we can play only "light" games like Angry Birds?

Thank you for your time.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] IFLPI:
Every 10s I have a lag for 1s, eg while scrolling in a tapatalk - system freezes for 1second and then scrolling goes normal. It is rather constant, and in the log there is an error - sth with resuming/wakeing up etc..

please check my log.

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Not sure if you used any tweaks I recommended but with Auto Memory Manager, you can slide the memfree settings up to get more free ram "on the fly"

Slide up slots 2 - 6.

When you're done, put them back to how they were.

A reboot would be a good idea too.

Also, if your launcher is bulletproofed, enable CM's lock home in memory option so home gets a priority of 1 instead of 0. This way, it will get killed sooner and free up more memory when you're in a game.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
I had the same problem with Asphalt 6, but I couldn't solve it even with raising minfree numbers. But who cares, Ill play Asphalt 5 x)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cooldudeansari:
HI

i have a doubt....will be very happy if ANYBODY helped out...

i am on 2.2.1 official froyo rom recently released,

i dont like it...i want to try cm7..

so do i just download it and apply through updates openrecovery menu?

or do i need to flash 2.1 sbf(that is revert back to stock) before i apply cm7 update through OR?

PLEASE HELP...

THANKS
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Nope, don't go back to 2.1. I think it should work if you just apply CM7 with AOR. My method was G.O.T. 2.2.1>CM7.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Lilim:
OK, so it's about 14 hours using standard minfree settings, with no bulletproof launcher. SMS notifications work fine, the phone has about 20-30 MB of free RAM, the launcher (GO Launcher EX) gets killed often. Playing Angry Birds Seasons is nearly impossible - it either gets killed just after hitting "Play" in the menu, or it lags as hell. Standard Angry Birds work fine, although sometimes they catch a lag or two.

Additional information:

- JIT - ON

- Purging of assets - OFF

- Surface dithering - OFF

- Lock home - OFF

- Lock message app - ON

- VM heap size - 48 MB

- CPU (min/max/governor) - 250/700/interactive

I'll observe it further as I'm working today till late. Good thing is that the messages work, but running multiple apps is a no go.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cooldudeansari:
one more question...

has anybody tried out gameloft games with this rom?do they work?

i have..gangstar miami vindication,hawx,splinter cell conviction,dungeon hunter,modern combat 2,avatar..

they work fine with 2.2 but gangstar lags a lot..this didnt happen with 2.1..

so i want to see if gangstar works with cm 7..

any ideas?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] serkejal:
I think there is something strange with memory management, as kabaldan suggest i use ddms to check the ram usage of all process.

I see that the real free ram, the ram not used for caching or other linux/unix tweak, is only 6-10mb. The total "available" ram is around 27-40 mb depending of the uptime and the usage (how many are still open or open and then closed).

In this condition when u starts a game the system process try to free the freeable part of ram (like cache), cause a GC purge to free more ram from other process (base on the priority in the config) and close process related to secondary server, hidden app, background service in the order typical of android system.

In my opinion if these step are slow the game app will be closed by the system before the necessary amount of ram is available.

Normally only after a restart i can play with game like "spiderman" or "call of duty" or "gun bros" but after some hour this game will be closed.

My test is to kill more process i can and cause GC purge from ddms to get more real free ram is possible and then try to play this game...and all go fine with a good performance...

what do u think about this??

wait comments :D

PS : Sorry for my English :o:o
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cooldudeansari:

can anybody suggest a rom to run games?

okay ill try that then i guess...my only problem with eclair is that the lockscreen

doesnt provide a number pad keyboard for pin lock..it is awfully painful to type the pin with the mini qwerty keyboard every time i use my phone...

and any other roms out there good for 3d gameloft games(gangstar)

please somebody enlighten me....

Have you guys seen this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1003338 ?

It's a possible workaround from kabaldan to fix the DSI errors. It looks like it causes some "display tearing", but after applying the change, I'm not getting any more DSI errors (I've checked through dmesg before and after applying the change on the latest CM7 build). :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Splog:
Yep, been using it since last night. seems to resolve my freezes/reboots problem and the page tearing is almost unnoticeable using this mod in its default settings. people using other configurations/launchers have seen issues though.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Lilim:
OK, after next few hours using standard CM7 memfree settings I can confirm that SMS notifications work well. The problem is that the phone generally lags. Seems that tweaking the memfree settings further, to find some "middle ground" between free RAM and stability might help.

Damn, hoped to stop playing with custom ROM-s and tweaking everything "to work" after switching from WM to Android ;)

is there a possibility to have in CM7 a sound for sms receive raport? it is the only thing that keeps me with MIUI ROM?

That's perfectly normal - it's the sound of the camera lens autofocusing which happens every time the camera is activated. Just look at the camera lens carefully as you launch the camera and you can actually see it moving.

Hi guys. I need to get my MS back to stock, but after having flashed this ROM RSD Lite does not see my device at all. I can get the bootloader 90.74 up np, the Moto drivers see the device np, but RSD Lite doesn't see it at all. Any ideas?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cherrybombaz:
Something interesting I noticed - after playing around with the settings, I found that disabling the overscrolling glow effect makes navigating around a lot smoother.

Also, another tip - instead of using the default brower, Opera Mobile 11 is awesome now - its actually pretty fast, and it can actually scroll around webpages and do pinch-to-zoom smoothly (unlike the default android browser).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] wisefreakz:
With you phone powered on, check if you have debug mode on... or boot the phone in bootloader mode and that is it.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zninja:
That's what did the trick. Cheers!

need su just before rm command

su
