All I did for my market to work was download the same file 5 times.. it wouldn't install.. then reboot the phone, try to download apps again like 2 more tries and now market works for me.

Gj on the app too
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] droopypillow:
ive market downloading issues since build 20..i did everything step by step except step 4..and now my market works...thanks for the temporary fix
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
So here's an *actual* fix that doesn't involve replacing the Market app...

...it appears this issue may be localized to people with custom MTD partitions.

Thanks go out to JTownBrewer and FredBo (on #mytouchslide @ freenode IRC) for figuring this out:

Open up your favorite terminal emulator -- I like Better Terminal Emulator Pro -- and enter...

su
cp -a /dev/cache/download /data/cache

Market apps will once again be downloading properly. This *may* not work after rebooting, so just keep that in mind.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] xaodxkevin:
Thanks for confirming droopypillow

And

Thanks HebrewToYou for the fix once I get home I'll add note of it and credit you, but I still prefer this one because it keeps my apps attached to the market. I'm not sure exactly who/why people are getting that issue but I'll definitely be happy with the old market until I hear that's fixed.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] droopypillow:
I flashed build 26 market is working again on this build for me..
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] aaldiar:
I have the custom MTD partitions and simply changed the cache from 1.5 to 60 and that solved my Market and GPS problems instantly. Just an FYI for you guys.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] xaodxkevin:
so the cache was also causing the GPS problems? Thanks, I'll make sure to change the cache size immediately

I'll continue using this though until the apps being attached to market issue is fixed
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] droopypillow:
I have a 1.5meg cache and have no issues with gps...I had market problems from. Build 20-25..but I did nothing wxcept flash build 26 and it is fixed..
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] JTownBrewer:
Yeah, I don't think the cache partition size has anything to do with GPS issues. This was purely a fix for the market.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] aaldiar:
Lol, I know it is a fix for the market. But I still had GPS issues with 26 along with market problems. Might just be some hardware dealio with my particular slide series or something. All I know is once I did the partition my GPS and market worked instantly.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MusicMan374:
I'm on nightly #27, no market issues. Custom mtd with cache @ 1.5 as well.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] PhDCharlie:
How do I see what the cache size is and change it?

(Sorry for the noob question).

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] picklerick:
i am running custom mtd and notice for some reason something keeps remounting my /sd-ext and /cache partition to RO which causes the failure. Rebooting and updating/installing the apps right away usually works but it's only a matter of time before it gets remount as RO. Also adb shell will not allow me to remount it back to RW, it doesn't give me any errors using mount but it just stays at RO.

right after a reboot:

/dev/block/mtdblock3 on /system type yaffs2 (ro)
/dev/block/mtdblock5 on /data type yaffs2 (rw,nosuid,nodev)
/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 on /sd-ext type ext3 (rw,noatime,nodiratime,errors=continue,barrier=1,data=ordered)
/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 on /cache type ext3 (rw,noatime,nodiratime,errors=continue,barrier=1,data=ordered)
/dev/block/mtdblock4 on /dev/cache type yaffs2 (rw,nosuid,nodev)

after running:

/dev/block/mtdblock3 on /system type yaffs2 (ro)
/dev/block/mtdblock5 on /data type yaffs2 (rw,nosuid,nodev)
/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 on /sd-ext type ext3 (ro,noatime,nodiratime,errors=continue,barrier=1,data=ordered)

nice job and thank you all...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] khalpowers:
FM RADIO also missing..:(...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fjfalcon:
@Dexter, thank you for contacts.apk. But how to install it? After replace in /system/app it's says - It's not installed, and when i try to install it - it says: I can't be installed.

For more issues: how about light sensor, that detects when you speak on your phone?

On 2.1 when you speak touchscreen goes off and you cant press it errorly.

Thank you very much.

That from 2.1
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
Facebook account missing.

After full flash and all instructions followed corectly i can boot into 2.2 without any problems.

i set up my account with google, go to the market, download "facebook for android" install is succesfull, i then go to ==> settings menu ==> Accounts menu, add account, choose facebook, am successfull at login in to facebook, return to accounts menu = Facebook account is not there.

And my phone contacts do not sync with facebook.

Thank you :)

[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
Is yours working?

Where are those settings please? not in the accounts menu cause facebook is not there, i am able to add it from that menu but then it disapeares, when i clic add again facebook option is availible but just clics to nowhere and returns to the add account page....
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
ok, i went back once more and flashed just 2.1 kernels from uk rom, and indeed all sensors work now.. but,but,but... no 3D accelerator is currently activated, so screen lags really alot..

but yes, with that kernel it still boot up fine, with a few changes.

edit: update - ITS WORKING!!! running with 2.1 uk release kernel , its working now, all sensors activated..
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] 3rdstring:
In the facebook app if you tap on "Facebook" at the top you go to the page to navigate to news feeds, friends, etc. If you hit your options button there there is a settings screen that includes preferences for how contacts are sync'd.

HTH
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
Yes i saw those settings, unfortunately they have no effect or bearing on the accounts.

I believe this is a bug, yet no one has confirmed or denied being able to reproduce it.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
All sensors activated!!

I think smurfb deserve a little thanks, for pushing the request/idea just to try loading the old uk kernel once more, so i did and this time i fixed the problems with loading the old kernel and lib/bin required, its not much and most (2.2) korean state is kept intact..

ill do some testing after the new nandroid backup and start uploading v1.0
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] easye420:
does that mean u activated the 3d accelerator. :) and would replacing the settings.apk from 2.2 from motoroi enable hdmi since the settings arnt even there anymore in this version the hdmi libs and everything is still there jus no hdmi.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] alx294:
IT WORKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!

AND DEXTER!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!! You're amazing.

Ill be up to any testing you guys need me to do :D
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
yes, 3d is fully functional now. I dont think it will work, but i will find a way to add the functionality..

the korean rom has only english, which im sure not many appreciate, although camera as one is used from that rom so only english is enabled.

but i will for sure try and get HDMI working..

I got FMRadio app added, does it help?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] mtvdeo:
Thank you so much for making this, Dexter. We are hungry of froyo, asking for more. But you deserve to take a break :)

Market 2.2.11

I installed the new Market apk from here: http://aliwaqas.info/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Vending_2_2_11.zip by extracting it to my SD card and installing it with Root Explorer. Seems to be working - and remembers all my apps.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] pritesh_100_in:
updates..seems..nic..option..
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
this is no native wifi hotspot, but its a feature invented by vendors.. stock android does not come with hotspot function.

native froyo apps2sd works fine.. if you try it with apps that support it or read other post with setinstllocation and "works fine" words in it.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ronnbon:
I still have the wifi/ market problem- to be precise I just can lock to my wifi just a second than the connection cuts.

Second- I have the new market and can access it but cannot download anything. The same with my dropbox account- cannot download. But I can download from slide me for example...:confused:

And about the third of my apps cannot work properly because they have problems with the new sdcard directory- for example appmonster, metamorph and dropbox.

Is there a trick to check if native app2sd works properly? I am already at 74mb memory.

The market and wifi issue is really a problem for me... :(
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] cdstewart:
Okay, I thought it was stock on 2.2 :S my bad.

But there is a "3G Mobile Hotspot" app which does NOT work (built in)

Also tried the root-requiring WiFi tether app I was using on 2.1 from the market and does not work.

"Mod Install Location" from market works very well for installing any app to SD card.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
SetInstalllocation app mentioned should work fine..

and the wifi ini file fix mentioned by another user solved this wifi issue, which only got reported once, so problem is unique to those with special ap's.

so extracting the ini file from the korean kernel might solve it, as that one is different, as i included the old config from 2.1 now.. and it works fine for me and i guess many others.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
i will check milestone user forum, if anyone got it to work with generic isp's, because it looks to be isp specific app.

but yes, somehow motorola was offering the service, but in this case limited somehow..
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
OCR with app attached works fine here? goes back to regular cam if back key pressed? do you press home?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] cdstewart:
I don't know that it is to do with the ISP though.

Like I said, WiFi tether in the market did not work either.

Which IS a generic app and that worked fine on stock 2.1

hmmm :/

Scratch that... Wireless Tether from market DOES work, my computer just wasn't recognizing it before.

My bad. Sorry for the hassle.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] khalpowers:
my wireless tether version 2.0.2 work fine here...try just now..

I'm a root/flash noob

Guys, can anyone put in clearer steps for this Froyo 2.2?? I have the XT720 and I am using Windows XP. Can anyone, if nice, make a video and show us how to do it? I am leaving for Japan later and will try when I am back on Tuesday.

Thank you guys. Keep rolling. :)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ronnbon:
I am really sorry but with this I need help.

1.How can I extract the ini file from the korean kernel?

2. where exactly is the file located?

3. What do I have to do with it after extracting?

And why am I the only one who cannot download anything from market???
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
i can only say that with all the mods i made, it happens for some users, the wifi driver changes a little so authentication/connecting suddenly is wrong for some routers.. it normally happens often of cheaper routers or dlink(dont know why).. but it happens..

the ini file is located in /system/etc/wifi , and i attached the config from 2.2 edition. which the come with 2.2 but again, some had issues with that driver and problem seemed to be confirmed by the korean guy who mods the 2.2. so i decided to use config from 2.1..
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ronnbon:
I replaced the ini file at the phone with the one I got from you and gave it permissions.

Than I rebooted- was that correct?

Any way- it did not help.

Does that means I will not have wifi anymore with froyo?

And please, do you have an idea why I cannot download from market?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] gommers1978:
If you mean when you click a file in the market and it does not download try clicking Googletalk in your android Menu and try again.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ronnbon:
I read this advice before but I did not work for me.

But- I did reboot my phone twice because of other reasons and suddenly all downloads started at once... strange...:rolleyes:

But wifi is still not possible...:(
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ghostboy:
To: Dexter

I found a solution for the mounting of /sdcard to /mnt/sdcard from a China Forum, I test and it is work! (e.g. iSilo, Super Money)

By using ADB

su

mount -t rootfs -o rw,remount / /

rmdir /sdcard

ln -s /mnt/sdcard /sdcard

***This method is provided by "DemoJameson"***

Please include this fix in the next version, thanks.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
:-) i know how to fix it this way, but during bootup its actually affecting other processes, so thats why its not so simple to fix.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
if you do have the chance, can you give it a try or if you already know, does the 2.2 korean edition work with wifi for you, because it is based on that one, but if it does not its not just the ini file you need, its also the complete ini+firmware which is a bit more complex as its not loading correct as it need the driver too from 2.1 which i have not tried how works here..
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] metalizer2000:
so can we use this solution?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
sure..of course ill try and make a proper image tonight with latest fix , i do have a chance to correct now.. but sure you can link sdcard this way for now.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] amjad_2020:
Finely a good rom thank you so much :D
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] metalizer2000:
not work for me,sdcard still linked at mnt/sdcard

update : work but after reboot it back again at mnt/sdcard
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] khalpowers:
:D:D...hdmi include?...hehe
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ronnbon:
first of all: market works now- but I don't know why exactly. I rebooted twice and suddenly it starts downloading...

second:

I accidently flashed the korean sfb first- I also had no wifi then...

I have a Linksys WRT160N router- not a really cheap model- but I just came to my mind- the problem might be the wireless encoding? I am just so confused because nobody else here has that problem- I have WPA/WPA2-PSK... is that not a common encoding type?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
i got linksys (2 of them WAG200n and 3000N) both works here, but! , my WAG200n did have problems if configured WPA2 TKIP and not AES (i recall?)

that on linksys seemed to be a problem for some..

but ok linksys is fine..
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] 3rdstring:
That's what my USR router uses & I haven't had any WiFi problems.

Other than the known issues I also have the Dropbox issue (related to the /sdcard issue?). I also can't get Angry Birds to load (From Market I get "Unknown reason 18", Titainium Backup restore fails, install from an APK thru Root Explorer also fails). My Swiftkey keyboard also stopped working. When first downloaded it worked, but now it won't pop up at all.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] dateno1:
i alrealy

try replace all of file on /system/lib/hw but i can't recovery sensors

i have all file list changed (usign diff software that compare folder :) ) but i can't recovery yet :(
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ghostboy:
Sorry, I'm the same situation, cannot mount after reboot ...... waiting for Dexter to fix this problem.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] dateno1:
now i and my co-worker making apk type launcher and installer for my recovery pack :)

it will work well on any xt720 :D (alreay work well)

it can install automaticaly by bat file on pc but i think launcher is more good method :) (just copy the file and folder to your sdcard and install apk and push install)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] easye420:
Yay got everything working right. Had to reformat my sdcard. Thanks dexter for ur hard work. Can't wait to see more improvments.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] patejlice:
The problem with the SD card I solved by adding a command to a file mot_boot_mode.p2.sh:

/system/xbin/busybox mount -oremount,rw rootfs /

/system/xbin/busybox mount -oremount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock7 /system

rmdir /sdcard

ln -s /mnt/sdcard/ /sdcard

and then he join former apps2sd ext2 partition :-) do not use for anything, but what if ...

/system/bin/insmod /system/xbin/ext2.ko

mkdir /mnt/sd

/system/xbin/busybox mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /mnt/sd

This is not systemic, but it works after reboot
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] metalizer2000:
so we use :

/system/xbin/busybox mount -oremount,rw rootfs /

/system/xbin/busybox mount -oremount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock7 /system

rmdir /sdcard

ln -s /mnt/sdcard/ /sdcard

or :

/system/bin/insmod /system/xbin/ext2.ko

mkdir /mnt/sd

/system/xbin/busybox mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /mnt/sd

??
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] patejlice:
Using the first option:

/system/xbin/busybox mount -oremount,rw rootfs /

/system/xbin/busybox mount -oremount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock7 /system

rmdir /sdcard

ln -s /mnt/sdcard/ /sdcard

The second option is only for my use, I apologize for the confusion, just join the ext2 file system on my sd card...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
its fixed, i can chose "show on tv" now with mediaplayer using 3d gallery.. so its ok. (i guess) i only tested video playback.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] metalizer2000:
its not work,after reboot still back to mnt/sdcard again ;(
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] khalpowers:
:D:D...yaaaa...cannot wait for new release,,,,TQVM DEX!!..
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] gommers1978:
@ Dexter in the new release can you do something that the small media key next to the camera key can be used again for something (showing gallery or something)

Thx for everything till now, i can go from 2.1 to 2.2 and visa versa with nandroid great work!
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] easye420:
I had the same problem. Reformating sdcard fixed all issues.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ronnbon:
what exactly does this means- delete everything and reformat it as Fat32?

Does the native apps2sd don't need an ext2 partition?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
I think that's correct. The native app2sd uses a directory called .android_secure in the root of the sdcard (note that in linux, files/directories with names that start with "." are not displayed by default--it's the way linux does "hidden" files). At least, from what I can tell, angry birds installed itself from the market directly into /mnt/sdcard/.android_secure/com.rovio.angrybirds-1.asec without leaving any apk in /data/app that I can see.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] :
Found another problem: the camera doesn't work! :(

After start of the phone, the camera FC's and if you try to start it after that, it just jumps back to the home-screen.

I use the camera a lot, so it would be nice if it would work.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] easye420:
This has been fixed dexter uploaded something to make it work read up in the thread more. And to reformat easy from phone unmount in from phone from the sdcard settings and hit format.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] khalpowers:
bro i found the solution....just delete umount /sdcard at the bottom script of mot_boot_mode.p2.sh inside /system/bin ....wallaaa..!!:):)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Zachary57:
Is this Rom compatible with European XT 720 ?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] DemoJameson:

panorama doesn't work for me. After opening, I get force closes every time I go to the camera. I don't use it anyway

Dexter: any plans on a Blur or Sense rom?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] :
Thansk. I already fixed the camera issue in the main time with Spare Parts 'Fix permissions' option. So I guess it's something like a permission option Dexter ;)

Btw, I also saw Dexter uploaded V11 to his site today. What's changed?

http://dext3r.komodin.org/xt720/
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
im uploading v1.1a as well based on new milestone 2.2.1 leak.. it has better sync support (facebook) + new lockscreen like blur..

what else changed is the launcher which is alot more smooth now.. but thats in the 1.1a ..

1.1 includes the hdmi fix, contacts fix, mobireader apk, /sdcard fix etc..

most except the gallery button (didnt find a fix for it)..and 3G hotspot (still checking ISP for functionality it seems)

edit: v1.1a has not been tested with hdmi though, but no libs changed on that topic..
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
