Just upgraded to the latest release and must say this is the smoothest CM7 so far for me. Didn't even have to use any scripts to smooth things out. The games that were lagging before are playing smooth again.

Great job kabaldan :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] -vpa:
Wow, it's unbelivable, last version works best of all versions.

But I have new problem. I cannot install ChromeMarks, both paid and free version. Can anybody tried this? I have been tried install other apps which are bigger and there is no problem, only ChromeMarks. ChromeMarks has no problem in previous version 7.1.0.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] brotkastn:
Same here.

I downloaded the latest (7.1.0.1) build (update-cm-7.1.0.1-Milestone-signed.zip), checked its md5sum and booted into recovery. I then formatted cache, cleared davlik cache, and applied the update. Then, i applied the new gapps, and after that the voice/video gtalk update.

After rebooting, i get to the "white M" boot logo, and no further.

Downgrading to update-cm-7.1.0-11.10.05-Milestone-signed.zip works.

I would be happy to provide more information. Thanks for your work!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] jarlaxlebaenre:
I don't want to use any app, I'd like to do it manually.

There are a few guides on xda and different sites but they just state to remove default font and copy a new one. But how will the system recognize it if there is a 'Serif" font in CM's 'fonts' folder as well.

kabaldan, is there any way to quickly revert to previous MAC address?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] LuigiC6:
What's battery life like on the latest build? :O
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] enrsil1983:
I've added fonts in CM zipfile before flashing, removing japanese and arabic files to make space, and now they are automatically installed in cdrom partition. If I add fonts after installation they are not recognized, even with permissions and owner change (with rootexplorer)

But I use the new font (Roboto) only in GoLauncher, the system font is unchanged
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Quentin himself:
Not even an idea? Battery dead, Milestone dead?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] jarlaxlebaenre:
Changing zipfile is one method I haven't thought of. But I'm not even sure which font is system's default: Sans or Serif, they're both in fonts' folder. Most guides describe the best method as to use RootExplorer/terminal/adb to rename old font with .bak (DroidSans.ttf -> DroidSans.ttf.bak), then copy new one and name it like the default one (NewFont.ttf -> DroidSans.ttf).

But that's not what I want to achieve. I was looking for a file that specifies which font is currently used by system and change it. Unfortunately, no luck so far.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] afadel:
This and the previous version have the best battery life I've experienced in CM7. It doubled the batt life with the same usage.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] konax:
Me too!

every boot the MAC address is different.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] jose.celestino:
Are you serious? The wireless card mac address is changing between reboots?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mikeszf:
Yes, it is changing, and it came to normal when I use a nandroid with the anterior version that is the one i´m now using until it gets fixed
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ngonchan:
Nope, using "font changer" is the easiest method. You can revert to another font or revert back to default font anytime you want, you can see which fonts have been using in default also.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ngonchan:
I think the Ring Lockscreen sometimes doesn't work well as in my attach files.

The first one is normal, but sometimes, it just one ring appears and in everywhere of my screen :confused:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ShinG0:
Hello.

I'm about to share with you my experience with the Cyanogen 7 for Motorola Milestone.

First I have installed update-cm-7.1.0-11.09.30-Milestone-signed.zip over full GOT_RTEU_2_2_1FULL.sbf . I did everything - full wipe, sd card format and so on, but I got some problems with my phone. I got Force Close on some programs (games) while Exiting or even, while I'm trying to run them. For example Tiger GBA, Tiger SNES - can't start at all - black screen and then Force Close, but I did not have this issues with Cyanogen 6. Also I got problems with my GPS and iGOMyWay_8.4.2.139242_800x480_MotoGIS_V2.4.apk . The first 5 minutes the GPS was okey, but 5 minutes after that it just warn me "Lost GPS Signal" and the phone freezes on one screen. Only battery remove was able to fix that. And this happened over and over again- I was not able to use my GPS more than 5 minutes...

Then I have tried with update-cm-7.1.0-11.10.05-Milestone-signed.zip . Sadly the problem with Force Close was still there, but fortunately the Igo GPS crash-freeze issue has been fixed and I was able to use my GPS more thаn 5 minutes :)

Then I have tried the follow updates: update-cm-7.1.0-11.10.08-odexed-Milestone-signed.zip and yesterday I tried with update-cm-7.1.0.1-Milestone-signed.zip . The issue with Force Close is fixed on both of them, but my iGo GPS keep freezing my phone every 5 minutes. Only battery remove fix that.

So I roll back update-cm-7.1.0-11.10.05-Milestone-signed.zip, because I need my GPS more than some games, which are getting Force Close. I have also Force Close problem with Stratagus (StarCraft port for Android) on Exiting, but I can ignore that. I'm interested in - why my GPS keep freezing my phone with the other updates, but only with cm-7.1.0-11.10.05 is okey and works?! I have tried with re-installing the iGo software and nothing helps. Tried with full wipe, clean everything, but the phone keeps freezing with the new updates, while I'm using iGOMyWay_8.4.2.139242_800x480_MotoGIS_V2.4.apk .
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] jarlaxlebaenre:
Does it work properly with our custom location of 'fonts' folder in /cdrom block?

In my case every time I turn Wifi off and on the MAC address is different. Now that is just ridiculous, but I've searched a bit for a fix and it seems that many Droid and Droid X users also experienced this issue on different ROMs. Sadly, no one has found any solution.

kabaldan, any thoughts on that?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ngonchan:
I'm using the latest build, 21.10, and as in my attachment images above, I can change my font to Roboto, just say: it work well for me ;)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] alicheusz:
I can confirm this issue. Togging wifi change wifi MAC address. Which results in no connection (gray wifi icon) on routers with MAC filter enabled.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] enrsil1983:
Also for me.

Now I understand why my assigned IP address is different every time I turn on Wi-Fi.

My home network is open so I haven't problems, but this bug should be fixed
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
Thanks for the reports, 7.1.0.2 will be released later today, MAC issue fixed, other fixes and additional optimizations added as well.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ShinG0:
Thank You very much, Pavel!

I hope that the freezing issue with the GPS will be fixed as well ;)

Best Regards

Svilen
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ShinG0:
My phone keep freezing after 5-10 minutes of using the iGo GPS with the new update update-cm-7.1.0.1-Milestone-signed.zip . Only battery remove can fix that.

It is okey with the old update-cm-7.1.0-11.10.05-Milestone-signed.zip and no freezing issues appears with that one.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
ShinG0: iGOMyWay 8.4.2.139242 is not fully compatible with gingerbread.

By my brief testing (only brief because I use Sygic as my main navigation app), iGOMyWay v8.4.3.179971 is running much better.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ShinG0:
Okey, I can try iGOMyWay v8.4.3.179971 - thanks. :)

But I was wondering why it is completely okey with update-cm-7.1.0-11.10.05-Milestone-signed.zip - where is the GPS difference between update-cm-7.1.0-11.10.05-Milestone-signed.zip and the new one?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] BryanChung:
update-cm-7.1.0.2-Milestone-KANG-signed.zip — CM 7.1.0.2 (2.3.7) odexed; md5: 8cfe40ddbc346d24742cc28d57d0961d

What's KANG? :o
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] jose.celestino:
KANG means it is not a CYANOGEN_RELEASE, that is, not an official release and not a nightly.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mikeszf:
Yep, the MAC problem is fixed :D
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
Yes, KANG = not official cyanogen release.

7.1.0.1 was not tagged correctly only by my mistake, now corrected.

While my CM7 builds for Milestone always stay as close as possible to official CM releases for other phones and I also participate in official CM development, I use some Milestone specific features and also hacks not suitable for upstream. Therefore the releases are not official.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] BryanChung:
Thank you! :P
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mohammadj54:
Thanks for supporting our milestone kabaldan
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mcdevtingz:
so the KANG release is a normal release yes?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] jarlaxlebaenre:
Yes, You should definitely install it.

From what I can see there are a few improvements:

- MAC issue resolved,

- some fixes to lockscreen and wifi

- fonts back in /system, lang_pico in /cdrom block

- new ADW launcher action - Double tap (ADW Settings > General Behavior > Double tap actions)

@Kabaldan: Some people don't have dsi related issues, so having dsifix.ko module installed is just unuseful thing. Can you add an option to CM7 for disabling this future. I don't really like deleting dsifix module after every update.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] grot84:
When i have download the latest (7.1.0.2) it works.

Thanks for the fix.

EDIT:

I have also noticed some problem with the camera.

When I am pressing the camera button on the edge of the phone the auto focus is working (the diode is working), however no picture is taken (just auto focus is changing and changing the focus)

When I press the 'take a picture' on the screen it works immediately (focus is very fast) so it some times does not take a sharp pictures.

I have just noticed that so I have downgraded to 7.1.0-11.10.12 and the problem is the same there.

I do not remember on which build it was working some around RC1x.

Does anybody have any idea?

Is there a WA? or it is a known issue? How to debug the problem?

Thanks in advance.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ngonchan:
It works fine for me, even long click to go to settings :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Eiertschik:
I'm using 7.1.0-1 and it works as intended.

Soft pressing focusses, hard pressing takes a picture.

Only issue bugging me is that after taking a picture the phone becomes irresponsive for a few minutes.

But somebody mentioned a fix somewhere... lowering image quaility iirc...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] jarlaxlebaenre:
It's working fine, but for some reason settings were reset. Pressing 'Sound' and 'Brightness' has no effect because only one option is selected for them (e.g. Auto Brightness). Just go to settings and enable a few more.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Babis_ECE:
Hi everyone, I just came back from MIUI and installed latest CM7 7.1.0.2, latest Google Apps and over that the Google Talk. I wanted to see how CM7 is now.

The initial setup went fine, I got my Google Account working and synced, but Market will Force close every single time.

Of course coming from MIUI I Wiped everything, and tried again to install Google Apps from OpenRecovery. But Market Force Closes again and again..

What should I do?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] amletinka:
check your system language, its now i think set as hd(united states) or smth like that, just change it to any you want. and check market again
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Babis_ECE:
First of all thank you for the very quick response. Second, I changed the language to greek and it works now. :)

What a strange bug..!

Thanls again my friend.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] trueHOUSE:
I cant get into open rcovery without the update.zip in the sd card when the open recovery zip is in the sd card there are no problems but if i delete it i get an error when OR is loading ,that means i cant update open recovery and cant install rom update why is that happenig anyone having this issue ?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Babis_ECE:
Hi trueHOUSE.

->First of all, it makes sense not to be able to get into OpenRecovery without the Update.zip in the SD Card..

-> To update the Open Recovery, you just delete the old files (Open Recovery Folder and update.zip and copy the new ones on the SD Card. You do that when you have your phone connected to your computer.

So try that. I think you will be able to have new openrecovery running.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] trueHOUSE:
yes i have the new one i didnt know that the update.zip has to be in sd card so does that mean that rom update doesnt have to be "update.zip" exactly can OR read other filenames

I figured it out :) there is updates folder in OR folder i didn't know that i have to put updates there ,sorry about that pointless question ,im new to all this
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Babis_ECE:
Nice to hear you figured it out. ;)

A question: With MIUI I was using Link2SD. Excellent App, and had over 50 apps installed on my SD Card, in a 1.5GB Partition.

I installed Link2SD again and moved an app on SD. But after a reboot, Link2SD can't find the 2nd partition, although It runs the mounting script. It's like it can't mount it.

Any ideas what the problem might be? Do I have to do anything specific to activate mounting of the 2nd partition?

Thank you.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] BryanChung:
Oh. Because it seems like it has changed to become checkboxes instead of radio buttons for options.

Thanks.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] brotkastn:
The newest build does indeed fix my "hang on white M-Logo" problem.

Thanks for your work :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Eiertschik:
At first everything worked flawlessly on 7.1.0-2 build - but when I tried to Bulletproof my Launcher using zeppelinrox' script I received lots of "sed: write error" messages and after downgrading Busybox to 1.18.2 Busybox installer claimed that it has no more root access and refused to start even after re-allowing it in SuperUser app...

Strange stuff - So I restored 7.1.0-1 backup - works fine enough :)

if a person call me the lockscreen dont react a few times or too late and i cannot call to the person.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ngonchan:
If you've had an ext partition on your sdcard, you not need to use Link2SD. I'm wondering if Link2SD conficts with app2ext or not.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ShinG0:
Tried the new update 7.1.0-2 and the new update for iGOMyWay v8.4.3.179971 and it's worse than iGOMyWay 8.4.2.139242 , because it's just crashing and exiting to the Home Screen on the first 10 seconds no matter of what skin I'm using. I think just CyanogenMod 7 is not compatible with iGo, the only version which is fully compatible with iGOMyWay 8.4.2.139242 is update-cm-7.1.0-11.10.05-Milestone-signed.zip .

Anyway I switched to SygicNavigator_11.2.0_upd_CNSTeam_v0.2b.apk and I'm happy now :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
Not true.

To test it, I just drove from work to home with iGO 8.4.3.179971, running CM 7.1.0.2. No issue, it worked perfectly.

@nadlabak: I've been using MIUI for some months now and haven't tracked your CM7 Updates. I must say you 've done a great job, CM7 is "flying"..!

Very fast and snappy, most of the time I get 70MB of free RAM, Angry Birds, Youtube, etc, play like a charm. I don't know how you can further update this. :cool:

I have a couple of questions if anyone can answer them:

1) Can you tell me exactly how I can transfer apps to my SD? I've been using Link2SD with MIUI but I think it somehow conflicts with CM7.. Is there an app2sd/app2ext system preinstalled?

2) I've been a fan of LauncherPro but decided to give ADW a chance. Is there a way to make folders for apps with ADW? I've get used to them with MIUI. You can categorise your apps. Very usefull and neat.

Edit: OK, we have a problem: There must be something with my SD (probably) because after a reboot my Applied Theme was lost and some of my Apps were deleted! (Angry Birds, Gmail..) Is there an option that installs them directly in SD Card and so if it doesn't mount quickly it shows them uninstalled?

I've installed LPP and ICS Theme for CM7. It looked awesome, but after rebooting it all disappeared.. :(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] jarlaxlebaenre:
1. I've been using default 'Move to SD' option in application management. Never had any problems.

2. Long-press on any screen, choose 'Folders'

If You want to install apps directly to SD go to Settings >> CyanogenMod Settings >> Application >> Install location

One more thing, I've been using this ROM for quite some time but I never get 70MB of free RAM during normal usage. The value that I see most of the time in 'About phone' menu is 37MB / 226MB. I have home and messaging locked in memory, only Beautiful Widgets and Simple Calendar Widget running in background.

Is that even normal? What are the usual values for all of You?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] nitrobg:
For some reason, CM7 doesn't save keyboard settings. When I enable different than the built-in layout, on restart the phone disables it and reenables the default one. It's pretty annoying.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kliroland:
I got nearly the same value, 35/226.:)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] sdtaddey:
One question... How do you manage to have calendar events on the lock-screen???? .... There is an option in CM Settings >> Lockscreen >> Widgets >> Calendar Display, but I've tried all combinations without any success!! :mad:

Anyone did manage to make it appear?

TIA

I posted my other problems on the bug tracker however maybe someone here might know some fix.

i have update-cm-7.1.0-11.10.12-Milestone-odexed-signed.zip installed here is what i am experiencing right now.

1. When phone is inserted into media dock at night there is 3 clicking sounds made before the the clock comes on they are rapid clicking noises when usually i insert the phone it makes that chime noise when going into the media dock.

2. When the phone is inserted into the OEM car mount dock seems that the touch screen is screwed up no synced properly, i touch exit and the left side of the screen is pressed, only when i actually slide the keyboard open the touch screen is somewhat ok, also Vlingo is not responsive to the wake up call "Hey Vlingo" when the keyboard is closed.

3. After using some apps and closing the apps the phone is pretty sluggish, on Froyo there was the task manager when you longpress the home icon that allowed you to close apps that were running still after you closed them down, why was this removed? i find Task Killer to be annoying and not user friendly.

4. The wifi & data usage. When wifi and data are enabled for some reason it uses both?? why is this, if i am in a wifi zone the data should not be used, only wifi i have to make sure i turn data off if i am using wifi only. This is a hassle, Froyo i used to have the power widget and the wifi was all i had to click to auto use wifi only the data was closed now i have to click wifi and click data off.

I will post whatever other issues i find.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] sdtaddey:
Hey!, thanks for the answer;). I knew it has something to do with the other widgets/features, tried: music, all kind of lockscreens, etc. But, "The Alarm" ... WOW!!!

So ... come on... If I have to choose between having my alarm activated( I dunno for you guys, but for me its one of the "must have")or having the calendar ( which is the other " must have" as well ) I'm sorry to say that, but I find it completely useless.

Also, I pass from this: (CM7.1.0-11.10.12)

To this: (CM7.1.0.2 KANG)

Jesus!, last version drains the battery a lot!!!, Reverting back to previous version until this gets fixed.

That might not be accurate, whenever a new rom or updates are installed you need to calibrate your battery.

This is false you have to download the calibrate battery app and do this in order to get better results.
