sorry, misread. writing speed on sdcard even ext2 seems slower than NAND. I've tried moving dalvik-cache to sd and need 5 minutes just for boot (class 6 sdcard).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] brysonwong:
Hi guys, may I know whats the app2ext for?

Any idea how do i go about it to make it work for my milestone? Do guide me because I'm very new to this. Thanks! :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] brysonwong:
same here. encounted this too. :(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Homer314:
Hi, is there in this ginger rom the SIP protocol support ? Anyone tried it ? Thank's

Quoted from, bijixda

attached, use update from Open Recovery to install

you need to create ext2 partition yourself, as usual backup your data first

- Wanted to give you a HUGE THANK YOU. I can now reboot without any worries of losing everything. One quick question, my phones internal memory (under Running Services) shows only 24mb free out of 155. Is there any way to get more memory back? On my old rom Telus Lite 2.1.1 I was able to get around 85-90mb of internal System memory with the same number of apps. Either way I am just stoked to have the apps2ext. So again you have my gratitude.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] BryanChung:
Erm earlier at church I recorded a video using my phone. It seems fine to me.

28MB - m4v file. Here is the video on Youtube.

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] mrvek:
You can also boot to recovery and there you have an option to enable mass storage mode (and with new 2ndboot recovery you can access even the sd-ext partition using a pc file manager). In OpenRecovery (2ndboot mod by kabaldan) these are fourth and fifth options (you press volume or d-pad 3x to get to usb mass storage or 4x to get usb mass storage full access mode).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rayleigh2010:
Hi Kabaldan, I also experienced this one while playing Inotia 4. its free, perhaps you could try that one.. the sound seems to be repeating in slow motion thus I didn't enjoy playing with sounds anymore :crying:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
rayleigh2010, ShinG0: Thanks for the reports - confirmed. I've reverted the dac fifo size increase as it's indeed the cause of the audio issues in certain apps: https://github.com/nadlabak/kernel/commit/14519fd43b2574d574a97b749f6cc68557b9f7e8
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] rayleigh2010:
Hi I have been experiencing this problem whenever I turn on my mobile data. It prompts me to restart after a while my mobile data is on. Have any of you experienced this issue?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] janosik47:
I have seen this once a day or two ago, first time ever .... it has not happen any more ...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Strokesws:
My phone is only charging on AC while off. Any ideia?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Erovia:
Try to boot into OpenRecovery (2nd-boot one) and see if it is charging.

If not, then maybe it is a hardware related issue but if it is charging, maybe it can be solved if you reflash the rom.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] 86dan:
What charger+lead are you using? if its not the stock one, sometimes can cause an issue. also, sometimes plugging them unplugging the charger from the handset a few times gets it to recognise it.

mebbe not the problem, but sometimes other chargers or leads can give issues.

if none of this works, try a factory reset :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] burdik:
Alarming issue coming from Russia here

When phone tries to connect to some cellurar base stations, something bad happens, and Baseband Processor goes to panic. (Nice feature handling that with the promt, btw) This has been confirmed by at least three milestone owners.

This problem appears (and persists) only when near some base stations. It doesn't matter if mobile data turned on or off, switched to 3g or 2g only, it just happens.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Erovia:
Is your phone set to use the correct baseband? There is a baseband selector. Maybe you should try out different settings.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] burdik:
But Russian UMTS baseband is standart 2100/900 and this didn't happen earlier.

I also tried swithing preferred types (WCDMA/GSM to just GSM) with no luck
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] CeBits:
Has anyone noticed, that if you turn off JIT in CM settings, quadrant scores only 300 points for CPU, if you turn it back on it scores 1330 points.

However its clearly a bug with Quadrant, because I haven't noticed slowdowns or frame drops in FPse or games, its really quite the same framerate, but this bug only occurs on CM7 and on the milestone in particular, thats why i am posting this here.. My other android phones do not do this.

Its really not a big deal, just want to clarify its not just me. It has been happening since the very early builds of this ROM. First I tough its chainfire's fault, but then it occurred when I restored older nandroid backup with no CF3D installed, and I tracked it back to JIT,
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] fzelle:
I think you missunderstand what JIT is or where it's used.

JIT is for Java programs ( Just In Time Compiler ) so that the generated java maschine code is not interpreted.

99% of all games you see for Android are done in pure C/C++, so they don't need JIT.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] CeBits:
I am well aware where JIT is used and what it is. Whats your point?

I am only saying turning off JIT affects quadrant CPU score, where it shouldn't. There is no cpu score difference when i turn off JIT on my sk17i.

afaik android games run in java virtual machine.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] burdik:
Games use native code. Because it's faster for them (for usual tasks it isn't) and doesn't depend on Dalvik, so they can be easily ported.

The thing is, JIT in Cyanogen is tuned to optimize the code more aggressively, so it makes quadrant ramp up

Another thing may be that on sk17i you don't properly turn JIT off (it has 4 modes, if I am right) and it is still enabled.

Still waiting on answer about BP panics
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Erovia:
I believe solving your problem is only possible if you enable the logger and share the log file with kabaldan.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] janosik47:
FYI: 7.2.4d on Dev-Host...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] CeBits:
I guess you are right.

Nah I wouldn't bother him with this one, was just curious.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Erovia:
I actually said that to burdik. Kabaldan might be interested in what causes kernel panics.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
Please enable the logger in Device settings and pull the logs from /cache/logger after such BP panic.

E.g. via adb as: "adb pull /cache/logger" on command line.

I needs to see the logs to have a chance to be able to understand what's happening. Thanks in advance.

Btw., in 7.2.4c, this commit has been merged: https://github.com/nadlabak/android_frameworks_base/commit/1bc311c7c11474fc6ae965a97f0b87c954c8ca34

It may have something to do with the issue. So one question is: are the described BP panics happening also when running 7.2.4b (though it would be happeninng as silent reboots only, without the BP panic notification that has been introduced in 7.2.4c as well...)?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Al936:
Panic

Hi kabaldan,

The logs are attached. Panic happens when I try to end current voice call pushing "End" dialer button. The same is also happened for 7.2.4b...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ShinG0:
kabaldan thank you very much for the new 7.2.4d

Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I tried the new function - Call Recording (went to Settings=>Call settings=>Call recording --> V), but I can't get any records from it. I've checked the Callrecordings folder in my SD card and I have some files there, but all with size 0.00B and names call-XXYYZZ(some numbers).tmp. Every time, when I try to record a call no matter of who is dialing who - I'm getting a new call-XXYYZZ.tmp empty file. Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance and happy holidays!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Hellscream2010:
please help me i can't connect to adgoc wifi connections and it is a must for me!

thanks
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
Please post logcat captured after such call. Thanks.

There's probably something wrong with the final recording filename (to which the tmp file should be renamed to). The attempted filename should be visible in the log as part of the exception print.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ShinG0:
Hmm I think I found what is causing it. I was calling *88 , which in my case is my carrier's help system menu. It seems that the Callrecording service does not recognize the symbol " * ", which means does not save the files with that symbol in their names correctly. I've made a few calls to other numbers begining with +359 (my area code) and the strange thing is that some files got correctly saved in .m4a and size 200-300 kb, but not playable, some of them were playable, but the record is starting from the 10-th second, which means, that the first seconds of the record are missing, but the good news is that some of them are playable and perfectly recorded without beep or delay in the record state from the start to the end.

Asking google I tried to run the command logcat > /sdcard/logfile.txt with the Terminal Emulator, but I got an error message "Unable to open log device '/dev/log/main': Permission denied". And the Terminal Emulator already has SU rights, which was the first thing I checked, so what else should I try?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ShinG0:
I found a workaround of this issue with the Call Recording Service - the app is called Call Recorder Widget (v 2.0.6 - 400 kb) and you can record calls whetever you want by clicking the "RECORD" widget on your screen while talking - very useful. :good:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Kuboslaw:
Using this new release for about a week I have had only one problem so far. Twice in this time, when somebody rang me, I answered and then screen freezed, after half a minute the "telephony error" pop's up and asks me to reboot device.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ShinG0:
The same thing happened to me as well, also I've got my com.android.phone hanging several times and the only option was to kill it and restart the service. It happens only when I have the build-in Call Recording Service Enabled. If I turn Off that service the phone goes back to normal without "not responding" services and so on.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] xenomorph150:
Call Recording does only create an about 173kb big m4a file for me, which can't be played back with any software as it seems to be faulty.

So, something is wrong there, sadly :(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] CanAndroid:
Same thing here - it let me swipe to answer, then froze. I've enabled the logger now, so if it happens again I will post the log.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
The answers come in logs ;)

[Motorola Milestone Android Development] chaoscreater:
hey guys, I suggest you all try out this tweak, it really works!! I'm running the latest 7.2.4d and with this tweak applied, it runs slightly faster!

It's proven that it has a placebo effect.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] chaoscreater:
proven? What proof? No one has proven anything, they're simply saying that it works for some but not for others.

It's NOT a placebo effect, not for me at least. Several people including myself have experienced noticeable improvements in performance. I used to have lag opening GO SMS PRO and Camera, now they run so much smoother. I disabled the tweak and tried opening them again, and they go back to the lag again.

here, read this from Steven Kondik himself:

I'm using now entropy tweak by Zeppelinrox. It just requires change one number in his Kernelizer scripts and... I don't feel any boost... I't maybe placebo for me ;) (had the same with original app). It is not harm, so I maintain this tweak.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Sedariya11:
how can we record calls in it as while on call it does not give any option to record or have no option in the dialer.. can anybody pl help? thanks
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] heavony.ivory:
I have try version 7.2.4d, and for a few days it work fine. Yesterday, while the phone was plug to the charger (directly, not via the the station dock), i got a phone call and was unable to answer it. After a few second i got for the first time telephone layer error (screenshot attached).

I upgrade to 7.2.4e and so far it didn't happened again.

As I understood once you enable call recording, all calls are being record (recording saved at /sdcard/call recording).

I didn't like this setup (all or nothing) so i disable the call recording option. As a replacement I'm using call recorder widget (mention by kadablan in page .....), this widget popup and stay on each call, and allow you to choose if & when you like to start recording.

It work fine for me with no beeps.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] heavony.ivory:
New battery issue

I replace my battery (with this one).

I can't figure why the new battery charge only to 65% and no more, furthermore the small battery icon is not green (look empty with "?" in it) [screenshot attached].

I have tried to delete batterystats.bin, but with no help.

any help ? ideas ?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] LuigiC6:
Well to start, it looks like your first problem is whatever crappy knock-off battery company that is, it seems they don't know the difference between a battery and a screen protector... That should be all the reason you need.

Also, if you decide to keep it, then switching it back to 10% battery steps may remedy the problem.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] alicheusz:
battery

Battery is touchy subject. I have replaced mine with genuine from verified motorola reseller and i am getting things like in screenshot (pikes indicate phone restart). Phone can stay on 5% all day long.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] alicheusz:
I have hanged my telephone provider which give me new SIM card. This fix GKI crashes. New provider use more cell towers it uses two other providers to negotiate best signal. I think I am getting overall better signal and no crash.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Eiertschik:
Use Battery Information in Spare Parts app to check what's the battery's voltage when charging stops.

A full battery should have approximately 4200mV.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] clmta:
I tried refreshing the file systems (full nandroid, and after restore system, data and ext2) and SMS app seems to be more responsive. Also other apps and menu.

i just came from cm9 to cm 7 now my home button ist no longer working ? I cant return home and I cant long press to switch between apps `?

Any idea ?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Erovia:
Did you do a full wipe before downgrading?

Also you can try to wipe again, flash rom then gapps immediately.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ugynok:
I have 7.2.4e and i have this error too, this issue comes up without/with charging too. :(

i have to downgrade, because it is very annoying.

update1: i rebooted the phone and got this error after boot. :(

then i did a factory reset but the error is still there!

update2: downgraded to 7.2.4b... it is good (yet).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ShinG0:
The problem most probably comes from the new Call Recording Feature, which has some minor bugs I suppose. The workaround works fine with me - Call Recorder widget and keep the option Call Recording (Settings=>Call Settngs=>uncheck Call recording) Off (reboot is required for changes to take effect ).
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ugynok:
I guessed that Call Recording Feature causes this so

I did that previously and no luck after that... :( I hoped that will solve my problem, but nope!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Kuboslaw:
For me home button doesn't work until I install gapps :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
Call recording: It works fine for me, therefore I need to see the logs from someone who has issues with it, otherwise there's no way I can fix it.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ShinG0:
Thanks a lot - just tell me how to do it and I'll do it.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Erovia:
In cm10 it is here: Settings / Advanced (Milestone Settings) / Enable logger

You can find the logfiles in the /cache/logger folder.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Kuboslaw:
If I upgrade from CM7d to CM7e can i just apply it without wiping data?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Erovia:
Only wipe cache and dalvik-cache. (Do not wipe data.)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ShinG0:
There is no such option in cm7 settings menu...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Erovia:
Device settings?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
Yes, the logger option is in: CM7 - Device settings, CM9/10 - Advanced settings.

You can also use the bugreport service:

After a failure, press left shift + del on hw keyboard.

The device will vibrate once and start collecting debug info.

When it's finished, it will vibrate three times and a bugreport text file will be saved in /sdcard/bugreports.

Zip the created file and post it for inspection.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ShinG0:
Here we go. Today I've enabled the Call recording Service and disabled my Call Recorder widget. Here is what happend.

The first 2 calls went okey - I tought - o yeah - it's fixed now, but I was wrong. Tried 2 hours again. First I've unlocked the phone and pressed the call icon and everything got freezed and then I've got the message "com.android.phone has stopped working" and option to wait kill and cancel. I've tried to wait twice, but no luck - I ended to the very same message. Then tried to kill it and the application got killed and the phone pops up asking me to enter my PIN again. I've entered my correct PIN and the "com.android.phone has stopped working" message appeared again. I've made the bugreport and the phone has vibrated three times, indicating that the job is clearly done.

Have a look at the attachments.

I've disabled the call recording feature and now my phone is back to normal and I can use my Call Recorder widget as workaround - no problems so far with it.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] xda-con:
Hi guys, I have updated the rom from 7.0 RC to 7.2.4e without problems. I had done full wipe so system wipe, cache wipe and partition wipe before install the rom. The probmel is that the system is terribly slow. I have launcher pro for home and it's relativly fast, but apps like facebook and g+ are too damn slow. Maps is unusable
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] xenomorph150:
Here is a bugreport from my phone. After ending the call / hanging up, the phone app crashed. And then I did the shift + del to create this bug report. Call recording was enabled for testing, but it created only a useless file of 20kb which is damaged. (I never got an working file out of the call recording...)

I hope that helps you :/!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ShinG0:
I've just tried to dial a number and I got another message, the same as some other guy mantioned few days ago here:

"Tehephony problem. A Problem has detected in the phone's telephony layer..." and I've got 40 seconds to react with options to choose: Reboot now, Remind later and Don't remind again". I've made a screenshot and a bugreport of it, but the logger was disabled, so unfortunately I don't have log this time. After the reboot I've got a system message: "the device was rebooted due an error in phone's telephone layer"

Have a look at the attachments.

Thanks.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] kabaldan:
ShinG0, xenomorph150:

please test the call recording using this build - http://d-h.st/yO6

I tried CM7 again, after MIUI...

When Reboot, the Phone hangs on second Boot Logo and don't do anything more.

I have to pull out the battery, start OR and flash again.

The same happens, anywhen, the Phone turns off by itself or if I do.

Next:

With CM 7.2.4e, I do not have any Connectivity to my providers Network, no Internet, just Phone without my Phonebook...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Erovia:
If the usb cable is plugged in during boot then remove it. In the very rare cases when my phone stucks at the 2ndboot screen, I remove the usb cable, reboot the phone and it boots fine.

Did your phone asks for the PIN number? If not then hold the Power button, select Airplane Mode from the list, then select it again.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] grot84:
Hi All,

I am on CM 7.2.4e and i have found strange behaviour on this build.

When sb is calling me and i am answering the incoming call and in the bg the Milestone is trying to connect to Wifi the phone layer freezes and there is information that phone need to be rebooted.

What should I do to collect logs and where should I rise a ticket or sth.

thx
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] ShinG0:
No issues so far with it. Thanks a lot kabaldan. Testing all day and it looks stable.

If something goes wrong again I'll let you know.
