Ok, fair enough.

But IMHO, it's too risky bc:

1 you might brick your phone doing so

2 you are not sure if it's even recognize that much quantity

And also.... what do you need 2TB in a mobile for if you/we have just 256Mb RAM??

I mean , don't take me wrong i am just saying that Cos' i think is too risky for milestone, that's it.

What i wanna say is if you want to make a 2TB card you have chosen the wrong device. Maybe for cameras or camcorders ...

Anyway is good people like you who created things, and all of them are so welcome for me.

Have luck with your proyect!!!

Perhaps u may need to follow the proper succession.

G.O.T 2.2.1 sbf > CM6 or Cronos ver.1.7 or ver.18 > CM7
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Rotundjere:
yeah, probably I must buy cheap second-hand HTC Dream / G1 for development purpose.

IMHO, Milestone is not so friendly for kernel developers :mad:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] k1l:
the bootloader just doesnt load unsigned kernels.

if i recognize correct you can flash a sbf an everything should be fine. just take a look into the brick-threads, this aint cm7 related anyhow.

How do prevent the home screen from reloading all the time when you start a new app? It is very irritating. How to lock it in memory? I remember seeing it before in a post but I cannot trace it now. Anyone can help?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] pcphobic:
Some ppl say to disable Surface Dithering.

It is in the CyanogenMod settings > Performance
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Even when you lock home in memory, I find that it will still redraw all the time when using aggressive memory management.

In AOR, I just select Mild memory management (keep launcher in memory)

Your best bet is probably getting a USB memory stick to work....

hi,

I installes the latest release of CM7 and I dont have google maps, altough I do have market.

what to do?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] dysa:
Download Market Enabler, fake to one of the US carriers.

You will then be able to download any of the missing Google apps, including Maps.

imo, these are things the users can do for themselfes...

afaik nadlabak tries to stay close to cyanogenmod project.

but not sure, anyway its basic work to replace the launcher as user in few minutes, so i think its more something recommended to replace apps with others less ressource hungry.

Just curious, has anyone checked out what the best launcher for CM7 is?

LP+, ADW EX, Zeam, one of those Gingerbread Launher?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] pcphobic:
For me, I personally like LauncherPro. It makes scrolling thru the apps drawer so smooth (even my iPhone friends are impressed). And if u are using the latest version, u can have many cool home screen transition effects.

And if you are using the "plus" version, u can resize widgets and have cool looking LauncherPro widgets like Calendar and Facebook.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] salisbury_steak:
Thanks PCphobic. I'm using the right launcher then. :)

Btw, I'm not sure if this is a bug...

Have you noticed that when you open your music app, the albums view sort of creates separate albums if it detects multiple artists in an album? (i.e. compilation albums for instance.) Or is it just me?

It has been repeated many times already. To get apps like Gmail and Youtube, u need to download and install this app on your phone called MarketEnabler (google for it).

Then launch MarketEnabler and spoof your phone as a phone from any of the USA telco and then go to the Android market on your phone and u shall see all those apps hidden from people outside of USA. Google Maps, Gmail, Youtube are those hidden.

Are there any fixes to the buggy camera?

I take a photo and then the phone freezes for about 2'... and if the phone restarts then i lose the photo...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] salisbury_steak:
Try changing the quality from "superfine" to "normal". Works better for me.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] pcphobic:
Amazing. With the Mild memory management (keep launcher in memory) settings, I have around 60Mb free RAM most of the time as compared to b4 which was hovering around 29 - 35mb free RAM

Same here! I have about 50mb too!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] BryanChung:
How about "fine" comparing with "normal"?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] salisbury_steak:
But wouldnt mem management tend to keep apps from running in the background when they should? (I.e. clock wodgets)

As for the camera app, I recommended normal because even at that setting, i still get freeze ups some of the time.

modify a rom

hi all....as far as i know, to modify a rom, i just add/remove compatible stuff and then sign the rom..but what are the effects of doing this method??

I am planning to add/remove apps from system app, add init.d scripts, modify framework-res.apk, modify services.jar and add a few configurations here and there..

i ve been looking for this answer for quite some time now and i would really appreciate if anyone can give me some advice..

thanks in advance
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] salisbury_steak:

Everything's fixed now Kabaldan. Woot! Thanks for the assist. As it turns out, some of my albums didn't need to have compilation=1 on them, they just needed to have the album artist tag synced.

My music app is all pretty now. :-D

Btw, I have disabled JIT, and although my Linpack now sux. I noticed that I don't get dead widgets (i.e. frozen clock) anymore. I'd recommend it to anyone getting launcher redraws. Try disabling JIT.

(AFAIK, JIT uses system RAM to enchance app speeds.)

I dunno how to explain it. I am not the only one who experience the battery drain faster on RC3.

FYI, I leave my APN(Data connection) switch on on 2G the whole day in order to receive msg from Gtalk.

Of course if I turn off APN or use Wi-fi only, then I too can get 2 days of standby time.

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
My experience with ADW is very good and I like how little RAM it needs (but that is not that important).

CyanogenMod is open source ROM - the default launcher in CM will always be open source. If you have any issues with ADW, you can help to make it better, the source is here: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_packages_apps_ADWLauncher

Although free and great, any closed source launcher is of no interest to CyanogenMod. Closed source solution does not allow you to fix the bugs you may encounter nor to add a new features. Closed source is a dead end.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Fekish:
Ok thanks,

I regretted doing that. pcphobic regretted too. Although it sounds like we doubled the RAM but our phone acted strange after that.

For me, my keyboard refuse to load while typing SMS. And also crashed my keyboard. Then for pcphobic, his browser had problems.

I have since reflash. Because changing it back to Default setting does not work too. :(

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Fekish:
thanks, how exactly do we choose these settings?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] pcphobic:
Yup. Made my phone unstable. Last time I can load a webpage and then toggle to another app or to homescreen and then toggle back to the browser and the webpage was still there...but not this time. The browser had to reload again because the page was purged from memory to free up the RAM.

No use going back to Androidaini OR to set back to default...as somehow Androidaini default also yielded 65Mb of free RAM which means it is still aggressively killing apps and background processes causing the phone to be unstable. I had to restore back my Nandroid backup.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Weird thing this was happening to me before setting up to mild... edit: and still does...

@Fekish

How to set: in Androidiani Open Recovery, go to Froyo Menu, Memory Manager Menu, and choose which one you want.

Thanks for trying to help me out :) But that option is already unchecked. It doesnt happen every 45 secs though but like randomly .

Thats the main concern . I have removed all the vibrations :( but still no effect.

Yeah I've reflash and restore my DATA. Now goes back to hovering about 30mb free.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] BryanChung:
Haha! Bro! You keep insisting is because of this method that is causing people problem! :P
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] virus_spreade121:
Nope , it was some Vulnerable .sbf which came along with Open Recovery . I was first using Froyo Mod > Cm7 RC 2 without any issues > then Miui > then Revert back to CM7 RC3 latest build .
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] salisbury_steak:
@justandroiduser: I think you might have flashed the CM6 Gapps. Can you check if the Gapps package you flashed is the one on the 1st page of this thread?

Put me on the list of people who wont be using AOR's memory management. My clock widgets just get killed after doing that. Kabaldan's default minfree values are already good. If you really want to tweak them, I suggest downloading "autokiller memory optimizer" from the market.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] pcphobic:
So far my solution works for my friends who recently got into custom ROM for their Milestone.

I adviced my friends to break the locked bootloader on their Milestone using either the G.O.T RTUK or RTEU sbf files as described in the step by step guide at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=811221

Then from there they flashed CM6 based custom ROMs like CRONOS Froyo ROM before flashing to CM7.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] BryanChung:
Yeah the phone gets very unstable after changing the AOR's memory management.

So word of caution to those who want to try: NANDROID your phone! :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] virus_spreade121:
So you mean there is no alternative ? I need to flash GOT sbf then froyod mod and then CM7 ? is that it just to stop a normal vibrate ? Everything else works fine , the glitch started right after RC 3 latest update :(

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] salisbury_steak:
Or... use autokiller memory optimizer and change the minfree values to something alot more conservative. (CM7 default uses 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32)

Make sure you don't have .nomedia inside your music folders. Also, from file manager, can you click on a track and play it?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] frankxanders:
I'm having some major issues getting this installed.

I've thoroughly read through the install guide on cyanogen4milestone, as well as install guides for a few different recovery mods.

I am stuck at moving the openrecovery .zip from sdcard to root. I'm using SuperManager (with SU priveleges and r/w enabled) and each time I attempt to move over the .zip I'm told that there is not enough space to proceed. I've tried this with both Androidiani and GOT which are both around 12MB, and I've got 45MB free on the internal storage.

I also tried clockwork, but when rebooting, it just briefly displays the screen with the phone and the box, then boots back up as usual, which no changes made.

Where am I going wrong?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] motorator:
There is no need to put the zip file in the root directory of your phone.

Put the zip file in /openrecovery/updates in your SD card.

Boot to Androidiani 3.3 open recovery, wipe dalvik/date/cache, and flash the update file from there.

********************************************

If in the event you are talking about just getting open recovery installed, then read this guide carefully.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] frankxanders:
I JUST realized that after posting, and felt like a TOTAL dummy.

So I've got the open recovery installed now. Do I just need to rename "update-cm-7.0.0-RC3-0.07-11.03.04-Milestone-signed.zip" to "update.zip" and proceed?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] motorator:
No, the update.zip in the root of your SD card contains the open recovery. No need to touch that.

Move the CM7 update into /openrecovery/updates in your SD card. No need to rename.

Proceed from there with the wipes and flash.

Good luck, and have fun.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Alta1r:
You can prevent your clock widget to be closed by lowering its OOM value. Can easily be done with an app like Autokiller Memory Optimizer. Need to be done after each boot of the phone because it's not permanent.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] zeppelinrox:
Hmm I had no idea my post about memory management would get noticed so much lol

Well I looked at the AOR scripts and it seems that the names are misleading.

Default is least aggressive,

mild is more aggressive than default

and aggressive is obvious.

The Default is............................6146,8208,16416,20520,22528,24572

Default (keep loader in mem)........6146,8208,256,20520,22528,24572

Mild (keep loader in mem)............6146,8208,256,20520,32768,40960

Aggressive (keep loader in mem)...6146,12288,256,83968,91136,99328

All the Keep loader in memory options have that 256 as the third value while the third value of AOR default is 16416

That 256 must help keep the launcher in memory...

Also, the default (keep loader in memory) settings seem more gentle than CM7 default.

Hmmm.... how does 6146,8208,256,16416,24572,32768 look?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] frankxanders:
:)

Worked great! All up and running!

Hooowever... My APN (Telus) shows up in the list of available APNS and I have it selected, but it refused to connect to the network.
