I stay on for 10 hours wich for my kind of use is the best and memory around 50mb free after loading everything. Really you should try, i installed almos all gb roms and this is the best with speed, ram and multitasking. I open fring, tango, skype, sipdroid and gtalk without any trouble and still went smooth. Really nice....
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Linmad:
Donation

Hi mistich, do you have some donation paypal account? At least i invite you to a beer...

Thanks fr your work!!!!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] huzi7868:
my phone is lagging wen i switch between screens help
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mystichobo:
Haha, not yet working on it :P

Anyway guys, In terms of updates:

I've been really busy the last couple of weeks (University started again). I have a working version based on B7 - BUT I'm having some issues with data transfer in the market and browser, It's probably a stupid mistake I made somewhere, hopefully it's fixable though :)

New version, is pretty much the same, I've included all the widgets that have been ported from the LG Optimus X2 Leak (Weather, Analogue Clocks, Digital Clocks, Memo).

I really love the weather widget, It is damn low on resources, and doesn't auto update (saves data usage), and it looks damn sexy.

Also added the toggle 2g app, which seems to work well (and yes, I have eliminated this from my data issues, they are the same, with or without it)

I'm thinking of setting the default OC (or at least providing a update.zip) to 1.1ghz at the same settings as telus lite. What do you guys think of this?

Also, If I have time, I'll try to implement reboot in the power off menu :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] huzi7868:
yes mate go for it cant wait also do something about internal memory if ya can
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Linmad:
huzi7868

Did you do a data wipe? I installed from 0 everything and restore my apps with titanium so i didn't have any garabage from previos roms and it really goes fast ans smooth...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Linmad:
Important to me

To me really what makes the difference between your rom and others is the amount of ram free that it has. I think that this affect speed and battery since services are not restarting continously which i think slow the phone.Our ram in milestone is very limited. personally now i don't need more speed on the phone, besides the ramdom reboots from time to time is perfect only missing the togle on the notification bar for wifii, bt, 3g and light that CM has but i try to solved with widgetsoid (I saw you have it intalled and i try) but it open a pop up to change can not be selected on notification bar directly, so is not perfect.... hehehe

Thaks
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] huzi7868:
yes i did do full wipe
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] konti:
You can disable the popup in widgetsoid (settings - Notifications - Open popup). However pressing the button does nothing. It does not togle e.a. WIFI or GPS. Maybe someone else has a solution for this? Sorry for going a little offtopic here.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] James91:
Is there any way to disable the special transition effect??

What i mean is when you click any items in the "setting",

the item will pop out from the bottom left corner.

Or when i use the xda app and click "page" at the bottom, the page item will pop out from the bottom right hand corner.

I really dislike those effects. I just want default transition effect.

Any way to disable them???
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] bnwg:
Go to Settings -> Display -> Animation then choose either Some animations or No animations can do the trick
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] James91:
Yep it is ok now,

Thanks
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Linmad:
adhoc

Are adhoc networks enable? Is there a way to enable them in this rom?

Thanks
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] indiacam:
Confused with word Gingerbread which should be Android 2.3.x but here we see the link to rom 2.2.x

I have OR 3.3 as update.zip in root of memory card, then which update.zip is to be installed, where to find it and how exactly to install?

If anyone installed properly, can you please post some screenshots of different sections. e.g. settings, configurations, app managers, battery info, os info, etc.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mystichobo:
It is most definatly 2.3.

you put the update .zip that is on the first page of the thread in the openrecovery/updates folder on the sdcard.

Anyway, updated to 1.7 :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] indiacam:
omg! This is rediculous.....

At 4:00 AM Indian Time I downloaded and installed. 1.4 and at 2:33 PM mystichobo uploads 1.7

Lolz.....Am I first to download?

..... Downloading and will be back with results.

Thanks mystichobo! My confusion with installation is over. I was already on 2.2 hence the STEP 2 in your installation is not necessary. That means this mod should be directly installed on 2.2 or later.

Dear Mystichobo. Please mention this in first post so newbies like me will get clear picture.

ONE MORE THING: where the hell is that COOL WEATHER WIDGET as seen in screenshot in first post?

Thanks again.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mystichobo:
Fixed the first post, hopefully it's more clear now.

The Weather widget is from the LG Optimus X2 system dump, it's a new addition with 1.7.

It should be called weather and clock in the widget selector.

Cheers,

Hobo
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] huzi7868:
whats the iternal memory like on this new build
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mystichobo:
As in space for apps, or RAM?

Space for apps I'm not sure about, I only have about 7-8 aftermarket apps installed.

RAM is fairly good, about the same as the other builds. I often have about 75mb free (according to the running services tab, not sure how accurate it is though), though it will depend a lot on how much you are doing at once/how many widgets you have etc.

Hope that helps,

hobo
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] indiacam:
Wow thannks a lot dear mystichobo!

As I can see you have modifed the installation instructions and it looks pretty clear now and no confusion at all. Thanks again.

>> I am not sure if its my local problem or what, I am not able to download this rom from any of the multiupload links. some too slow and die. Some finish download with 30+mb only. Its too frustrating. I thought I will be first to download B7 based mod, but now it seems I will be last to download. :-(

do we have this new rom in any of your project pages?

anyways thanks for that weather widget, its kindaa cool.

Anyone tested the video bug in this version of B7? Originally B7 have video save issue. When you shoot video, the file does not go anywhere, not in gallery or not in sdcard or anywhere. Just disappear. Anyone observed this?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] alson041:
Does the video recording work? Shadowmod b7 has problems with saving videos.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] James91:
75mb ram???

I have tried shadowmod b6 and the average ram is only 38 to 45.

Only b3 guarantees to have 60 ram on average.

1.4 Hobomod also has about 40 ram on average.

What have you done to make such improvement???
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] indiacam:
Finally I downloaded this and sadly found the same issue (or even worse) than original B7 video issues.

1) After shooting video, the gallery does not show the videos. After shooting 2/3 small videos of 5/6 seconds, the camera application froze for 60 seconds.

2) When tried to find the files through FileManager, found 3GP files in DCIM folder of SCARD. But when opened, the error message appeared saying "SORRY THIS VIDEO CANNOT BE PLAYED".

3) Dear Mystichobo, B6 was totally bug free, stable and faster. Can you please build this mod with B6, i mean if you could only spare some time for us? Simply requesting because B7 is failed rom at the moment and already reported.

4) Your 1.7 is not faster than previous version. Have you overclocked already or CAN WE USE overclock updates for 1.7 which were realesed with 1.4 ?

PROBLEM: Camera issue is major one. In my opinion, 1.7 NOT RECOMMENDED AT THE MOMENT. Else check for yourself.

============

PS: MysticHobo please attach the previous WallPaper as it was going good with this kool LG's weather clock widget. Do you also have APK for this widget so we can use it with other mod in future. Thanks in advance.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mystichobo:
Like I said, I'm not sure how accurate the running applications graph is, but I basicly removed a heap of stuff, and added feeyos kernel tweaks, which I think help a lot.

As to the camcorder issue, try installing a camcorder app from the market, I know that when I tryed porting the Apac leak camera (which I failed at btw), the camcorder worked fine. The problem is that it's tied to the nonworking camera app, or I would have included it.

I'm not sure about the 3gp issues, I haven't changed any media stuff, so I'll look into it.

Don't really want to go back to an older build at the moment, if anything b7 has been a lot more stable for me. Will see how b8 is, if its buggy, I might move back to b6.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] indiacam:
BATTERY BACKUP NOT GOOD: Installed this Rom (1.7) after Battery calibration, as suggested by sileshn in some other post. But sadly the battery life is still not so good. Mine got exhausted (battrey drained) within 15/18 hours, even after very minimum use of few phone calls.

CAMERA NOT WORKING: Tried to find alternate FREE camera app in market, but could not find one. Working camera is must for me.

FINALLY: In next 1/2 hours, I will be rolling back to SMBR-B6. Milestone is already in charging mode for the same.

SCORE: :D:D:D:mad::mad: Anyways thanks a lot mystichobo for such a fast rom. Cant continue with issues as my device is mostly used for business.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] teddytam3:
The launcher restart very frequently! both the zeam and adw.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] fejker:
It's working fine with Launcher Pro. I am using just four light widgets tho - Last Call, Smooth Calendar, Switch Pro and Digital Clock.

I also don't have any other issues except for the camera acting strange. Today I had a case where I pressed the shutter button half way to focus and the camera didn't even try focusing and when I pressed it all the way it would hunt for focus a long time and then after I released the button it would give me the in-focus beep and then snapped a picture - all this in a very laggy way.

Battery life is unreal. I charged the phone yesterday, today at work I had WiFi on the whole time and the battery level shows 80% left. The battery stats show 1d 9h 20m 41s on battery. During that time a had a couple of phone calls, email, picture taking ... normal phone use.

Fix the camera and this will be perfect. I'll try an app for the camera just to see if it works OK.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] indiacam:
Did you try any camera app? If yes, can you upload/suggest one? If there is any camera fix, this rom would be best.

Some1 please come forward with camera solution... :(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] fejker:
FxCamera works fine but I think other camera apps would also work OK.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] pakcheongkwan:
The led is not working, and camera repeat initialize several time before going in. The system freeze once, I have to restore default so that I can use my phone again...

but the performance is really good, battery life also improved
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] sirob1:
i really want to use this mod, but the video camera doesnt work :( It seems to shoot the video, but then fails to write anything to the SD card. Ive also tried with MIUI camera and it does write a file to SD, but it's corrupt.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mcdevtingz:
love this rom!! only problem is that youtube keeps fcing
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mcdevtingz:
Why is it that its only in 20%? System reads every 10%
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rudie_techie:
I can't install this... I'm on Froyo and when i try to apply update.zip from recovery mode it tells me signature verification failed. I'm using original stock 2.2 rom. Rooted it and installed busybox. Cleaned cache, but still no luck...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] qaz2453:
nice rom! :)

but il stick with cm7
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] yasir_jan87:
hey can anyone help me, i have the telus milestone and i went from the official 2.2 to this rom and for some reason it show "NO SERVICE" the whole time.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] adamz667:
Download AndroidianiOR, drop it on sdcard, reboot phone and go to your new recovery - choose Baseband option (or Change Baseband - can't remember) and choose from next menu Telus - reboot and it should works.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] lukas77:
Possible to add to this ROM Theme manager?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] pcphobic:
That is because u are on Stock ROM (even if u are rooted), u cannot Flash custom ROM.

I guess you are a newbie since you don't know about this fact.

Reason is the stock rom will check for signed update.zip. The Androidiani or Open Recovery's "update.zip" is not a signed file from Motorola, so the stock ROM refuse to allow u to apply the update.zip file.

The solution is that you need to trick your phone to accept un-signed update.zip.

Most of us, if not all of us, have had to go through a procedure in order to "break free" and trick the phone into allowing us to run the update.zip from Open Recovery (most of us here are using Androidiani open recovery)

This procedure is called the G.O.T Update.

For more info on G.O.T Update, please go to the following link:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=811221
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] HinotoriBR:
No need for that. Kabaldan/Nadlaback page has a SBF of the vulnerable recovery. If someone is on official Froyo, just vulnerable recovery and open recovery are enough to flash custom roms (Froyo and gb, not sure about downgrading to a custom Eclair),
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] taikonaut:
Does anyone know how to extract the relevant baseband files from this rom to use in other roms (e.g., CM6 or FM)?

ps. I am on optus (an Australian network) and this rom was designed for use in australia (amongst other countries).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] LuigiC6:
No need. Just use Androidiani. It has a menu called Basebands, in which it has any baseband you may need.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cool bean:
sorry mistake
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] taikonaut:
Thanks for the reply! I have Androidiani but it doesn't have a baseband for Australia.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mystichobo:
Hey Taikonaut,

The baseband used in the ROM is the generic german one from Androidiani. I found it worked pretty good on optus in my tests.

Anyway, I think it's safe to say development for this ROM has died off, mainly because I have a new phone with more ram, but also because Edgard hasn't updated ShadowMod.

If you want a pure-ish AOSP rom, I would heartily reccommend Cronos.

Been a good run with the milestone, but kinda glad it's over :)

Thanks for being supportive everyone!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] taikonaut:
Cheers mate.

How to root the Dell Streak 7 using SuperOneClick:

Credits go to CLShortfuse for the application.

Note: I never installed the drivers for the Dell Streak 7 prior to doing this. I haven't been able to find them. Windows seemed to find the right ones for my Dell which is rare.

Also if you don't have ADB drivers already then goto this link and follow the directions to install them.

http://myhtcdesire.com/tutorials/how-to-install-the-adb-driver-on-windows

The OS used was Windows 7 x64.

Here is an easy ADB Tutorial if needed.

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/adb-easy-tutorial/

I typed adb devices

and the Dell Streak 7 was listed.

1. Plug up your Dell Streak 7 to the computer.

2. Make sure the Streak is in debugging mode. Go under Settings/Development/USB Debugging.

3. Head over to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=803682 and download the SuperOneClick 1.6.3.

optional: Open a command prompt to ensure adb sees your device. Type "adb devices" and check if a device is listed.

4. Open SuperOneClick application in the folder and click the Root button. SuperOneClick installs Superuser and busybox without any problems.

Again Credits go to CLShortfuse for SuperOneClick.

[Dell Streak 7] jeremy215:
What OS are you using? Worked fine on Windows 7 x64 with out having Dell drivers available.

You may need to install ADB drivers. Here is a link to a tutorial for that.

http://myhtcdesire.com/tutorials/how-to-install-the-adb-driver-on-windows
[Dell Streak 7] flipher:
I'm using windows 7 64bit but thanks I will try that link and see if I can get it to work
[Dell Streak 7] flipher:
still cant get it to work. try all the steps here and even found a driver folder on the dell streak when i turned on the mass storage. cant get it to work so i can root any ideas :(
[Dell Streak 7] kable:
Didnt work for me either win7 64bit using drivers from streak7 sdcard. Adb see's streak but the root fails to install. Ive rooted lots of devices and this is the first to give me trouble.
[Dell Streak 7] Sergnes:
Count me in as not able to root also...I have rooted every android phone I've had and never had any problems until this one....At the same time, I always used to do it on windows xp. Maybe ill just go back to my old xp comp to do this
[Dell Streak 7] tisoy915:
I didn't have any trouble at all. The procedure is pretty clear. It worked off the first shot. Now I've been trying various rooted Apps to see what's best for the tablet.

[Dell Streak 7] fatannasty:
@flipher i had same error , but when i tried 1.5.5 version it worked like a charm...hope this helps
[Dell Streak 7] MrMediaGuy:
Did not work for me either at first -- ADB connected fine, but OneClick "FAILED" on pushing the exploit. Then I read the OneClick page more carefully and discovered the instruction "DO NOT mount your SD card." Since the Streak 7 has TWO SD cards, one non-removable (which automatically doesn't mount under USB Debugging), I thought maybe my second SD card was causing the problem. So I powered down, popped it out, restarted, and ran OneClick without the SD card in place -- voila, no problems!

So for those having problems, if you have an SD card installed, try removing it and see if it works then.

Just checked the site. Our Eris are now worth $32.

Assuming that they are in fine shape and you have all of the original cables, etc., the Eris was still worth $86 on Gazelle.com last night. And that's not a Verizon gift card, either. I wouldn't sell it to VZW for $32.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] jhonniedj:
I reinstalled my android build over and over and tried various builds (not so super and incubus super froyo) both have the same effect, if i have the phone inside my jeans, it sometimes wont awake the screen and it just stays off,....

sometimes i can still controll the touchscreen and unlock and putt phone off.

but else i am doomed to push the reset button..

does anyone have the same sleep crash error, or am i the only one tytnII and android user and is it just a phoneissue? :(

i hope some1 could help me since it aint stable enough to use as a mobile phone (if the phone really crashes and i cant control phone inside "sleep" or screen off crash, i am not available for calls or smses..)

logcat logfile is here:

http://jhonnie.nl/screenoff.txt

i'm afraid it sometimes really crashes, since i am not available for phonecalls of sms messages.

maybe it has to do something with button pushes since i dont have much problems when the phone is left to my desk.

get radio version 1.65.x or higher. Get a kernel with different panel settings
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] jhonniedj:
radio rom is 1.71.09.01.. and just tried panel 2, panel 1 has "loose pixels" and always had paneltype auto....

any other options?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] Krazy-Killa:
Try downgrading your radio to a 1.65.xx.xx brand. I'm running 1.65.21.18, and have had very minor (about 1% of the time) crashes while phone sleeps.

using the incubus rs16 super froyo,.. hope this doesnt have any effect the bsod error
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] jhonniedj:
Tried multiple radios, now notsosuper rs18 wont work with radio :|

and tried incubus, wich had data, but was not stable enough to keep the phone from crashing.... :(

trying old myn warm donut, and hoping that will work... :(:(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] jhonniedj:
Tried various things, but doenst look like the change of panel helped, and also tries 3-4 versions of radio rom, and tried full install to windows mobile to "clean" anything left.

and when i install clean of Not-So-Super-Froyo, it had the most stability, modpack with essential kernel files, wern't needed and, leaving them untouched had more stabiliy then modded androidinstall.tar file..

Has anyone has more updates or can help me with this, because phone crashes, reboots and is stuck sometimes with screen left off... i don't think i am mobile enough to keep my phone to android, and i'm considering going back to windows mobile..

-Looks like it could have something to do with touching buttons since when i leave it in my jeans, it crashes much more when i leave it on my desk (where it doenst crash mutch or doenst crash at all)

is there anyone that has the same problems or is there some1 who doenst have any problems crashing? (since i would like to have the same configuration)
