It's not that simple.

As I set the CM option "lock home in memory" by default to on, I also dynamically (during runtime) compensate its possible negative side effects.

Even though the "lock home" option is enabled, activity manager makes this setting ineffective under following conditions:

1. when camera app is in front

2. when phone is in car dock

case 1. is because the camera is able to freeze the phone when not enough memory for picture buffers can be reclaimed. Therefore it's desirable for the launcher to be more easily killed when camera is in use, as that's much better option than frozen phone.

case 2. is because in car dock, the car dock launcher takes the role of main launcher. Navigation apps are rather heavy. There is no need to protect the main launcher in such situation.

If supercharger script is used and also the CM option to lock home in memory is enabled, the effect is completely opposite: in situations when the launcher protection is temporarily suspended by activity manager service for good reason, the launcher becomes hard to be killed. Not good.

You can update a new google apps from the dump of ics app?

And if the ics support in 100% hebrew and rtl you can update sometime and also support like ics its poossible?

Thank you.

For christ sake dude... let it go!!

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] nitrobg:
Would you, please, stop with this hebrew and rtl crap? We all are getting incredibly tired and annoyed by your constant crying about this useless ****.

Stop repeating it. If you are ignored by everyone, this means that we can't ****ing help you. Get over it. Christ.

Sorry for being a douche, but I'm tired of reading half of the posts per page about this. It's irritating.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] wisefreakz:
LOL.....
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Interesting.

I wasnt aware that locking home ever got disabled.

Regarding the camera, does that happen whenever the camera is in use or is it tied to the default CM7 camera app specifically?

If need be, the launcher would still get killed, it just would happen after secondary servers instead of before.

It's merely a matter of what gets killed first, really.

Ok i will stop to ask but realy Dev i will happy if yout notice to this problem.

Its not my own good(look that you dont read all what i wrote)- its problem to all arabic and jewsh! Its more many pepole! So why to hell i will stay with what i have and dont fix the problem(ok i wrote a messages..mabey much them)but if you was give answare before it i dont do it..think about that and dont keep only on your ass! ):

Update to CM 7.1.0.6 without needing to restore

Hello,

I currently have CM 7.1.0.5 installed on my Milestone

How can I update to CM 7.1.0.6 with having to restore all my stuffs?

+ I do not know if this the right place to point out

that you can add same song to a playlist couple of times in Music Player ( Is it a bug?)

Thank you

for all your support.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] amletinka:
i know thats not very good solution, but if nothing can be done in CM7, there is button in MIUI rom.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Eiertschik:
There are some variables in /system/build.prop which refer to proximity sensor distance and timeout - you could try experimenting with them (don't forget to reboot after changing them)

Just apply the .zip file and wipe your caches - there's no need to do a factory reset.

I don't think that's a bug

Maybe you want to hear song A, then song B and before song C you want to hear A again - in a playlist.

I'd say "Its not a bug, it's a feature!"
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Babis_ECE:
Hi nadlabak and thanks again for the continued Updates. I read that Development of CM9 started yesterday so I hope you keep your Milestone for at least a couple of months more and continue your excellent work :)

If we manage to run Android 4.0 on our aging device it will be a miracle and we will be able to say that we tried every flavor of Android since Eclair 2.0...!!

On CM 7.1.0.6 now: What should we do to have greek language on the Hardware Keyboard? Is there a way we (the greek users) can help? Just name it and I will try my best to make it happen.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] somecanuck:
As much as I'd like to see ICS on the Milestone, I have my doubts. We're stuck with 256 MB RAM and they've listed "> 256" as a minimum, plus a proprietary graphics driver. :(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
I need you to post suggested key mapping for all keys on Milestone's keyboard in this form:

a/A - 03B1/0391

...

Where the hexadecimal numbers after the characters are the unicode code points of the greek letters.

The first character is without shift, the second character is with shift

In the case you need to change also some characters entered with alt, add a third character.

For the character - key relation, I will assume euro_querty mapping as the base.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ivanoterra:
Anyone there, know where is the batterystats.bin ?

My data folder is empty (or r the files hidden ?)

Im using Astro to look the folder.

Well, anyway, thanks :D

You need to search with any file manager capable to search root folders. Like root explorer, script manager, etc.

1.the battery get down and down at update 7.1.06 like i was with 51% battery and just talk 4 minuets on the phone and sound 1 song that take 2:50 minuets and the battery go to 19% ... why? you can fix it?

2.and when and what will be a cm8 version for android? [and cm9 with ics get for us please] ?

thank you.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] leisures:
They wont be a cm8, cm8 supposed to be android 3 but i think android 3 is for tablets and if im not wrong they didnt release source of that.

From android central:

" In case you missed Steve Kondik's tweet a couple days ago after the Ice Cream Sandwich source code dropped, the CyanogenMod crew is now working on CM9. (CM8 was Honeycomb, which, of course, ain't really gonna happen.)

Do note that while Steve says "check back in 2 months," that really doesn't mean CM9 will be final on Jan. 14, 2012. It means things take a little while, so check back. It'll be ready when it's ready. Meanwhile, let's all look forward to CM7.2. (But here's to hoping for some ICS CM love in January.)"

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] adome5:
ok , i will wait but you think cm9 will get to the milestone device?

someone can help me please:

the battery get down and down at update 7.1.06 like i was with 51% battery and just talk 4 minuets on the phone and sound 1 song that take 2:50 minuets and the battery go to 19% ... why? you can fix it?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Stop repeating questions, dammit.

CM9 probably won't get on Milestone because it is totally low on RAM. Barely controlling CM7 (thx to kabaldan)... maybe we will get some parts of it on CM7, but CM9 won't happen...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] afadel:
Revert back to 7.1.0.5
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
Sorry, but this advise makes no sense.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ekennes:
Well you could try wiping it all and reflashing. I haven't noticed any power problems
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ivanoterra:
Try to do a battery calibration, look on the forums for that...

And make sure when u full charge to see if your battery is at 4200mV (thats 100% charged).

Or maybe looking if u had 3g/wifi/bluetooth on, they drain a lot of battery too... (the 3g part, im not sure, my n97 would last 1 day with 3g, and with 2g, it would long 1 week, donno if the milestone works like that)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] afadel:
The question didn't either.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] adome5:
1. i do it like a 3 times or more and its not help [battery calibration] and i dont use then on wi-fi or 3G,just call 4 mineuts and hear song that take like 2:50 mineuts and the battery broken from 51% to 19% on 1 hour [I have not used anything this time except what I wrote..]

2.I have a problem since I updated version 1.7.04 or so, there are several applications Markt updates and nearly all registers "file is invalid" or "file is not signed correctly", why is this happening and how can you fix it please?

[Yes, I tried to delete data from the Markt and also of each application separately Markt has an update that does not help ..] Thank you all!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ivanoterra:
Try downgrading your version, to .4, and see if the problem persists (IMO it's not that, maybe just a coinscidence.), format and try to do all the procedures again (sbf, vulnerable rom, flashing CM7 rom, etc).

Just FYI, i'm not kabaldan and not an expert on this, im just suggesting to you, to do a "try, failure" thing, if it fails, do something else, if you can't solve, maybe your battery is the problem, look if it is "fatter", if it is, buy a new one...

It's all i have at this moment ;D

Good Luck to you ;D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] adome5:
Thank you!

2 of problem are fix now the market work wonderfull and the battery at morning was on 1 hour of wi fi only get broken now the battery save!

Thank you and please shuld fix it on update 07.. and if nadalbak can try fix rtl on it..

You are giant!! (:

Kabaldan, I hope you are reading this post. I just want to ask you how to translate cyanogenmod settings to slovenian language. Thank you. :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] moe6:
kabaldan,

Do you have any idea what causes my Milestone (And a few others I've noticed) to suddenly lose it's data connection while in an app that uses it regularly like Waze or Maps? The only way I can get the data connection back is either to restart my Milestone or turn off mobile data-switch to 2g-turn data back on and then switch 3G back on after it gets the 2G data link again.

I've noticed the frequency of this happening is different for every update, sometimes less sometimes often (current version being very often, about 4 times today alone for me). Happens on other roms as well, not just your CM7.

Is there a log I can post to help you/everyone to see what's going on?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Aoi_sora9x:
Hi Kalbadan, thanks for the great rom :D

I have one minor problem: I cannot use Font Changer to change the system's font to Roboto. It says that the memory in the device is not enough. This didn't happen in 7.1.0.4 I think, only with v6. What is the problem here and how can we fix it?

Thanks again!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] BryanChung:
This is the suddenly drop of battery I am experiencing.

Notice the second screenshot, 2 suddenly big drops one after another. :(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] hearts king101:
Try to disable 1% battery steps, It may solve this problem ;)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kkazakov:
It doesn't. I have 1% steps disabled, and noticed the drops several times during the last days.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] BryanChung:
So actually is really scary my battery. For I do not know when will my battery from 100 can drop to 50 then suddenly 20. In just less than 4 hours.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Aoi_sora9x:
I just experienced this today too when i left my phone inside my bag. got 3 miss call from my friends, and the battery goes from 100>60%
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] megawebmaster:
@Aoi_sora9x - you have to remove something from /system/apps, i.e. CMWallpapers - apk and odex files. It will help, as it helped me ;)

Regards, megawebmaster
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] afadel:
It fixed by going back to .4? The market issue is probably because your cache is full. I have that in some releases and to fix it I use a mount script that puts cache on the sd-ext partition. But in some releases cache does not get full with the same apps installed. Go figure, hehe.

Go back to .6 and check the cache (in terminal type df).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] afadel:
I used to experience the battery drops. I switched the battery and didn't see it anymore. Maybe this is more related to a battery issue than a CM problem.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vnky12:
I too have a battery drain..it was 91% when I slept,, after 7 hours it was 34%..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] darkhole:
Ohh.. that's bad :( I'm using the CM6 version from milaq, and I'm also having this problem of battery... And, according to your experience, maybe it's true, is a battery problem :(

And, to me seems difficult to find some batery in Colombia.. Let's see what happend in the next onths with our Milestones with unexpected dry battery problem.

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Buckaru11:
I have noticed that when I am using a non-motorola battery that I get big drops in battery drain that I don't get with motorola original battery ,I think it has to do with battery build quality ,the others work ,just not as well, that has been my experiance anyway.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] adome5:
Ok need wait if cm9 can get to milestone or some tweak from there..

But maybe it pssible to get g-apps and some of apps that come with they dump file from ics on next update please?

And about the battery- i think the nadalbak noticed to this and will post or fix it.. i hope at less (:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ngonchan:
@kabaldan I'm on latest build and I think that sometimes, my phone system process die, It like a auto reboot without display Motorola logo and boot animation: the phone has not response, the screen go black, and then, launcher restart, radio system disconnects, then, it reconnects, recent app in launcher has been cleared. As I said, It like a reboot without display Motorola logo and boot animation (I disabled boot animation)

I attach here 4 files of logger and a logcat file, I hope these files will give you some clues about this problem, thank you.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vnky12:
Got the problem fixed..!!its because of ****y facebook app..!!its gains 23% of battery for it's service..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Babis_ECE:
Original facebook app is crap, remove it form your phones. It drains the battery, it doesn't have many features and it isn't snappy at all.

If you can't do without facebook on your smartphone then you should ty out FriendCaster Pro:

https://market.android.com/details?id=uk.co.senab.blueNotify

Also, there is a lite free version. Check it out. Way better than the official one.

But nontheless, I also think that 7.1.0.6 consumes battery a little bit faster than 7.1.0.2
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Aoi_sora9x:
@megawebmasters: Worked like a charm. Thanks. :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mathk:
the reboot problem may not be caused by the official facebook app as i got the same problem with the facebook app replaced by friendcaster.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
Thanks for the logs.

I've already fixed this issue before and the fix was also merged to upstream. But a new patch from upstream re-introduced the possibility of null pointer exception in getNextCalendarAlarm.

So this new patch should fix it again:

Hi @kabaldan I saw in the MIUI ICS Galnet they are using the battery management and the memory management from Android 4, is that real? Is that good? Is that possible in your ROM?

This is how my battery drops
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Aoi_sora9x:
16 hours is good, dude.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] vnky12:
Actually I linked that to show how the battery drops..!!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] megawebmaster:
Is it? What about nearly 2 year old battery and 2 days? Average use - some WiFi, some calls, many messages. With nearly no use - it lasted 3 days. That is good.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mburrieza:
If you see below in the graph, the drops happened when the screen and network were ON, so it seems totally normal in that situation if you were using it in those hours. With normal to heavy use 16 hs is normal in most phones, more in one with almost 2 years...

Mine is similar than previous CM7 versions.

But! I did a clean copy when switching from 6 to 7 (meaning I did all wipes, not only cache+dalvik).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] pcphobic:
On CM6 my overnight battery drain was 30%.

Now on CM7, my overnight battery drain is around 10%

Below is my test result after 6 hours 30 minutes, and I still have 100% left. It only dropped to 90% after 7 hours of idle.

Tips

B4 u flash a new ROM, make sure phone is 100% charged to 4200mV.

But event then, sometimes the reading is not accurate.

So to ensure that your battery is fully charged, shut down the phone first. Plug in the wall charger cable to the phone while the phone is turned off.

Then u will see the big battery level icon showing 100%. Next pull out the battery. Wait for a while until u see the "?" icon on the screen.

Put the battery back in and u will see that it is actually not 100% charged yet. Most of the time it shows it is really at 60% charge. So leave it there and let it charge until 100%.

Then once 100% fully charged, unplug the cable and boot into Recovery Mode and go to OR and flash the new ROM.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Babis_ECE:
After a couple days of using RC1 i'll have to agree, previous version had better battery life.

No serious bugs though, and battery life is good. It just was a bit better with previous version.

Thank you again for providing this ROM to all of us. :)

to be honest o noticed that in the past week my home button does not respond so well - but i dont know if it has soething to do with this...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Caz666:
This is a bit of a simplistic evaluation of the situation.

Firstly, what proof do we have that touchscreen damage has ever occured due to heat?

Secondly, not all overclocks lead to heat. 900 mhz undervolted using conservative governnor will not produce the same heat as 1100 overvolted...

Thirdly, my phone get a lot warmer when doing large 3g downloads then playing games @ 900...

Overclocking is a risk, but it has a LOT of variables. Faster = warmer and warmer = bad touchscreen is just not proven fact yet.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Topuz:
I totally agree with you, I also think that it's not so straightforward, but maybe he knows something we don't... That's why I posted this, the more opinions, the better.

I have several reasons to believe that moderate overclock won't damage anything:

1. The thing that usually damages CPU when overclocking is the increased voltage and consequently temperatures, not the increased frequency. Most people really don't overvolt their CPUs at all, 56 vsel is the default and enough for 900MHz-1GHz on most devices. Also, I don't really notice any difference in generated heat between 500MHz and 1GHz.

2. As you said, phone gets much warmer durring phonecalls or intensive 3G activity than anytime else. That means it's designed to work in those temperature range.

3. Phone doesn't really use overclocked CPU speeds and voltages unless it's actively used, and that's how often? 5% of the total uptime?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
Not at all, read what I wrote about it on IRC (11:50-11:56): http://milestone.bekaakut.de/index.php?date=2011-02-11

About the ghost touches - they are usually observed by people who carry the phone in the pocket (without any case) and it seems to be caused by the static electricity build up... this case has nothing to do with overclocking.
