I use old kernel (2.6.32), and it works like a charm :)

the new leaked kernel is not good enough for everyday use..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Rotundjere:
screen freeze occur because of the kernel panic (DSI error)

try to replace to older kernel (2.6.32-g4bc...), in the zip file :D

it works like a charm
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] BryanChung:
Yup that's why I used the older kernal too.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] salisbury_steak:
Since you are currently troubleshooting your dialer issues, it's always best to put everything to default CM7.

I strongly recommend loosing your custom OC and trying it out using the default CM OC of 900/700/500/250.

Btw, I moved my VM heap back to 32. I saw 2 instances of ADW EX (and GO EX for that matter) even when I was on a 40MB heap. :(

My current AMM settings are 6, 8, 18, 20, 30, 45. I needed to lower it down (specifically the 4th one) since my music.apk is getting killed with my old 24 setting.

Also, old kernel user here as well. :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
I'm on 60 now, on 56-58 some lag started to show up. Probably cpu is hungry for vsel.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
If you had CM's lock OR GO Launcer's lock enabled, you probably never had your launcher at a priority of -1.

Had you checked the priority with AMM to be sure?

Anyway, UNCHECK any settings within android to lock home/launcher in memory.

It is probably enough to have it set to 0 in local.prop.

Then reboot and check with AMM to see if the priority 0 got enabled.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] BryanChung:
I don't have any AMM or such app. Should I get it? :o

Anybody tried this Wave Launcher b4?

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] bnwg:
Yup...easy to use. But I'd still prefer swipepad as u can have 12 apps/shortcut to place instead of 5 from wavelaunxher
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Azhad:
Now you can have 12 apps with wave launcher too.

Ok, I've tried everything now... CM7 RC2 with stock clocks and no tweaks and even restored a nandroid of my original stock build through AOR... still getting reboots when i try calling! could it be a hardware thing?

Or is a nandroid backup not truly removing everything? would flashing a stock sbf and then redoing the entire rooting process and installing the new ROMs help in any way?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] bnwg:
Really? Sounds good. One more choice for easy shortcut
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] salisbury_steak:
Yep, if I were you, I'd flash a stock SBF and see if it's still restarting the dialer. If yes, I'd take it back to the shop for repair.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
Before that, I would try another SIM card.

OMG! Finally! Let's hope it's a *very* stable version after that much testing ;)

Edit: hmmmm

This sounds a lot like "dudes, don't use too many applications bc the phone will freeze and reboot"... :(

Kernel in official release...

As already stated the kernel in the official release is the one with the DSI errors, however I was just looking at the sbf page on and-developers.com and they have a link to an Arabic 2.2.1 release with the build U2_05.27.2:

http://and-developers.com/sbf:milestone

The comments column on here actually mentions the DSI errors for the euro releases, but not this one (and not for a CE build with the number U2_5.26.3).

I don't seem to remember reading about this release on here before, so does anyone know what kernel is in it?

(apologies if I'm being dense and have missed this being mentioned before, but a search for the build number doesn't return anything)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] A-HWH:
Looks like I am still having trouble connecting my phone with my school wifi (802.1x enterprise locked). I originally thought that it was just an Android problem (iOS users can connect to it) since my other friend have a X8 and fail to connect to it too, but my other friend who have a LG Optimus One (stock) connect to it successfully.

Any idea, why?

I checked his connection settings, it was the same as mine.

I've came across it before. SwipePad is tough to beat.

Buy button vs Install button

21 mb used vs 14 mb used

closes alot vs always stays open (option to keep in status bar ie. in the foreground)

bloated interface vs a single screen option page

Also, I utilize ADW's hidden dock.

So I just swipe the bottom and have an unlimited number of quick shortcuts :D

(I used the left edge for swipepad)

Edit: Ah, after a reboot, wavelauncher uses alot less than 21 mb, it went down to 15 mb so the footprint is better than I first thought.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] pcphobic:
Thanks to all those who gave me your feedback.

I didn't know about ADW's hidden dock.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cbstryker:
ATTENTION!

Official 2.2 released for europe!

http://phandroid.com/2011/03/15/android-2-2-froyo-update-for-the-motorola-milestone-hits-europe/
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Yeah, I didn't know about until weeks after first using it lol

Of course, you can only access it from the home screen.

I use swipepad for apps I'd like to open without leaving the current app.

That's real handy for launching a screen capture app ;)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rampee:
Sorry the link didn't work when I had posted it. Guess by now you would've found your way around.

All we needed was a decent kernel, and things still didn't turn out the way most of us expected it to. All efforts now should go to the BOINIC project.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] BryanChung:
Ok. I've:

- UNTICK "Lock in memory" on GO Launcher

- TICK "Lock in memory" on CM settings

- Edited local.prop to 0

- Installed AMM with the settings if 6 8 18 20 30 45

- Rebooted

Yup ok on those?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Fail, U shouldn't tick it in CM settings. For me it's unticked both in launcher and in settings. Never got a redraw(-1)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
UNTICK CM's Lock Home in Memory.

Then go in AMM's processes grouped by OOM.

Is the launcher in the foregrouond group with a priority of 0?

If not, double check local.prop for the 0 priority entry.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] BryanChung:
Ok untick BOTH.

Checked OOM.

No GO Launcher inside OOM.

Checked local.prop, confirm is 0.

-edit- even if i set -1, i reboot, still i dun see GO LAUNCHER in OOM. not even in any grounds =X

-edit again- or is android.process.acore that is the launcher since I see OOM Priority: -1 on that?

:( What's wrong.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] etoy:
i've noticed some crap quality gradient images since last versions..is it me that messed something up?

i.e. the phone gradient texture (when i make a call) is not gradient at all!

it looks like i'm using a lower quality textures,but i checked the apk and they're ok. :confused: two examples:

look at the green gradient in first picture,and the grey bar under "calcolatrice" in second one.. what's up??
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] bnwg:
Yup, the hide dock feature from AWD plus hide status bar will give a real full screen (of course you can add swipe up gesture to show status bar).

By the way, just tried v.1.0.6.1 of Wave launcher. It worked fine for the first few attempts but quickly it closed itself (just pixx me off). And it can't work from landscape (at least from my stone). So I switched back to swipepad even wave launcher can open the apps faster yet swipepad just gives much more promising performance by having its icon in status bar.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
In AMM look for android.process.acore

Hopefully it's in foreground apps.

tap it and select process details

there should be a few items lumped in there including com.android.launcher

OOM priority is at the bottom
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] salisbury_steak:
In my phone "android.process.acore" has always been my launcher. You can download the "osmonitor" app from the market to confirm that (as it will add your launcher's icon to it.)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cbstryker:
Bad post...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Azhad:
I was with cm7 since the release, and I just reflashed cm6. It's like having a new phone, much more faster, smoother and snappier.

Really, I don't see the advantage of having cm7, just maybe for the fancy screen off/on animations

Sent from my Milestone
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Fekish:
This is exactly what i was always thinking, but never actually had the courage to go back! :)

I think i will also try it in the next few days.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Yup, thinking a lot about that, but no more Honeybread theme then ::(:(:(:(:(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
I never had the courage to try CM7 :P

I just really like the stability of CM6

At the moment, I'd sooner give FroyoMod a whirl before CM7

But if Motorola is holding back a better 2.3 for Telus (yay Canada), then that's a whole different story...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Umm... save your current theme, install CM6 and port it over?

You can back up your entire system with AOR.

1. Have nothing in !sdcard\OpenRecovery\theme\froyo

2. Install Theme from AOR's froyo menu

3. Existing theme and system files are first backed up to sdcard\OpenRecovery\backup

Reboot.

Nothing changes except that you have a handy dandy backup...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Yh but this theme is .apk file, and applied with theme chooser. This should really work?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Azhad:
Cm7 would be great with swap memory, but I don't think motorola will ever release a kernel with swap enabled.

Or maybe a repartition where all that useless space assigned to /cache will be added to ram by swap, oh well, a man can dream...

Sent from my Milestone
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
I don't see why not?

My understanding is that the application of that theme .apk is that it works like a metamorph theme.

The images in your current theme are replaced by the images from the CM7 theme .apk

So at the moment, you have the original CM7 theme but with honeybread images... that's it.

You can take your current framework-res.apk and convert it to a cm6 framework-res.apk.

It's possible that themeporter can do it but I know somebody in the motorola themes forum converted a CM7 theme to CM6.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Yh but thats not easy. I know these are just png files different than SystemUI, but problem is how to make it work on cm6.

FroyoMod better than CM6.1.2? I've read that FM 2.6 is coming soon.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] geevee11:
This will not work.

The framework-res of CM7 is a lot different from CM6. Plus some icons for the notification bar are now in systemui.

The theme porter works differently too. If you decompile the theme.apk, all images are stored in one folder and they are named differently (com_android_systemui_stat_sys_signal_0.png, etc)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] geevee11:
You can extract the images from the theme apk with 7-zip, rename them with the correct filenames for the png;s, then insert them to the framework-res.apk, and other apps, with 7-zip before flashing CM6.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Hell of a job, ain't it :).

And my other question, FroyoMod vs. CM 6.1.2?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Heh.. I think there is a thread for that lol

I had only tried froyo mod for a short while but it was pretty good.

No problems but at the time (v2.4?), the flashlight widget in the notification bar didn't work

I just like accessing from there alot so I went back to CM6.

But, the flashlight widget works now so I'll probably give 2.5 2.6 a whirl too

I wonder what new "memory management" will be implemented... heh :D

Personally for me in terms of battery life, it was specificlaly CM7 RC2
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] BryanChung:
Yup yup. I do see com.android.launcher now with a -1 priority. So I guess that is correct?

I'm trying to keep one app alive ... like Twidroyd or Notifo. but everytime when I try to increase the priority, the app already got killed when I check OOM. Gosh. If the app gets killed, I do not get notifications from the apps.What should I do?

are those steps right for install this rom?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] salisbury_steak:
As far as I understand, that's what Kabaldan meant when he said:

So he updated the binaries (and even have a better version of it), compared to the official Moto Froyo.

I'm not sure if it's placebo, but I did notice performance improvements in switching between apps, and launcher performance in general. ADW EX user by the way. VM Heap =32; AMM = 6, 8 , 18, 20, 30, 45; OC = default.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] lalit79:
nah...in the build.prop its still the old verizon droid fingerprint. kabaldan used to use that one as there was no official froyo fingerprint for milestone....

not that it matters much but its still good to have the latest official moto fingerprint
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] moviecut:
is it a new kernel?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ezeygtr40:
I dont know if it's just me or what...coz i did feel some improvements after updating to RC3 16/3...launching apps seems faster...ADW EX also much smoother compared to before...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] BryanChung:
Does anyone notice the super w---i---d---e widget button spacing on the notification bar? :(

Can we make it smaller? =X If not I have to scroll horizontally so l---o---n---g if I have so many buttons. :(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] moviecut:
yes, the 16/03-Update has a new kernel!!

2.6.32.9-g11068ed w21529@il93lnxebld12 #1 Sat Mar 5 03:24:42 CST 2011

maybe the arabic SHOLS_U2_05.27.2-version (-> http://and-developers.com/sbf:milestone )
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] latino147:
?? I don't get it?

now that the official kernel is unstable too I think I'm done hoping and give CM6 another try. This morning again Maps froze up when entering an adress.

The annoying part is that the phone works perfectly when you don't need it. I open and close several apps, including maps, and everything works smoothly. But the moment I NEED the phone (to call, maps, whatsapp, browser) it freezes or rebootes.

Anybody here done a counter-voodoo course? :p
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] pcphobic:
Hopefully the battery life would be better.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Fekish:
there are many "hopefully" :)

hopefuly battery will be better...

hopefully programs will not freeze...

hopefully the phone will feel like a phone that doesnt need any updates anymore...

etc

etc

etc :p
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Fekish:
through last version, all ADW desktop setings dissapeard..
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
In the past, there was usually a delay between new firmware release and registration of its fingerprint in the google's market. Therefore the copy protected apps were not available in market for some time. That's why I decided to not hurry updating the fingerprint (but I actually didn't check whether the new 2.2.1 firmware fingerprint is already registered or not.)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
That's because the ADW is now running in acore process with shared uid (as recommended on low memory devices), therefore the system see it as a new application, not picking up your previous settings.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Fekish:
Not even to load previous settings in ADW? :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] salisbury_steak:
I assume that ADW EX (in /data) is not affected.

My question is... would I experience performance improvements if I move my launcher to /system?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] PhatUgly:
Does the new Kernel also come with this awesome "DSI Error Feature"? :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] :
Sadly yes :(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
The DSI errors are rather rare with the kernel included in 0.08. It's not the old kernel from the 5.26 firmware builds released by Motorola yesterday.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rampee:
Ouch. When and where was this kernel available?

Are there no chances of a better kernel from Moto hereafter?

Kabaldan,

So the kernel used in the latest release is newer than that of official Froyo's?!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Skkip:

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Splog:
Hi, sorry if i'm being slow, but do people suggest we move to the arabia region kernel (SHOLS_U2_05.27.2) with the "Rare" dsi errors and reflash cyanogen? or will flashing the latest release of Cyanogen replace the necessary files?

see:

http://and-developers.com/sbf:milestone

i'm currently still on the GOT (SHOLS_U2_05.26.0) release.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] latino147:
So where did this kernel come from? I really don't understand anything anymore :p

Or is this the 'older beta kernel' from the opening post?

I was about to flash 0.08 with the older DSI-free kernel, but I understand now that

it is NOT necessary to replace it in the zip before flashing?

Nadlabak, could you please make us a simple overview of the different kernels around used by you and the pro's contra's of each kernel?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rapid91:
hey friends, i have updated at the new version, but the launcher scroll is very slow! What do you think?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Yep that's right. So is it bulletproof?! lol

So remember, if you don't like it, you change it to 0.

Twidroyd or Notifo... Are they running in the secondary group?

They must restart automatically tho.

If they were working before, they are working the same as before.

PS. Hey, am I the last one to realize that kabaldan = nadlabak but spelled in reverse?
