Hey buddy! Been long since we talked about our phone. I have #3 issue with you too. :( I've switched to iceandfire for now to give it a try. But I am also getting redraw on both LPP and GOLauncher.

Hi man!

I start my development to Milestone, but i want to know, how to start to develop since CM7?

There's a base rom to start from?

If you could, help me in this.

Thanks!

PS: I like the "taste" of your roms...and want to port something to my test rom, if you allow me...

Thanks again!

Random reboots, and sometimes freeze ...

is replacing to the old kernel have any effects ??

and what is the version number of bootimg0.04.zip ?? (is it 2.32 kernel) :?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Fekish:
A thing i noticed is that through 2.3.3 when there is a home redraw ADW launches quicker now...

I went back to MIUI for a day, and the fact that there are no redraw to Home application is a HUGE difference, that makes the phone feel super fast... Unfrotunately is something that is a big negative to CM7 for the moment...

Also is there a way to keep another messaging application in memory instead of the stock one? For example to leave Handcent in memory...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] salisbury_steak:
I use LP+ 0.8.3 and I don't have launcher redraws.

Settings:

Memory usage: light

Cache type: compressed

Checks on all of the boxes in the "mem usage settings" menu

And a check in the "keep home in memory" box in CM settings

I'm excited about trying RC3, will flash it once I get home later.

Is everyone still experiencing the "missing mp3" issue?

And, to those experiencing it, have you tried this solution:

P.S.

@bijixda: Thanks for the auto-brightness settings. I'm using them now. :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Orangestrat:
Just tried to move up to RC3 and got an error (status 7), when I tried to go back to RC2, I got a bunch of errors and now my phone won't boot past the M logo. I got it into bootloader mode and am reapplying the sbf right now.

Any idea what went wrong (for future reference)?

Anything less sucky I could've done?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] RadevMartin:
I am using RC3 right now and apart from the problem with the media files, it seems to work a little better in terms of memory management.

However, I have another problem, related to 3g Mobile hotspot: I managed to activate it successfully, I even managed to connect from my laptop to the mobile hotspot. 3g mobile hotspot works for several seconds and hangs (If i run ping from my computer around 8 packets are transmitted correctly ).. furthermore - I can not deactivate the mobile hotspot and have to restart the phone.

Any help/comments are welcome :)
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] latino147:
Ah! That is a *very* welcome feature as I've always been struggling to select a word! :)

Problem is that your launcher will be killed of instead, needing constant redraws when exiting apps :(

Settings are stored inside the apk??? So if you copy the apk from the phone to SD you also backup all settings??

could it be that your ringtone is stored on the SD and 'after sometime' you connect the SD to the PC through USB and then your ringtone gets defaulted?

It's just a MAJOR design error from Motorola. They were too cheap with internal memory and now there is no way around it. On my Galaxy I had tons of widgets and processes running without problems. Now I had to say goodbye to most of them just to make the basics work (whatsapp, calling, maps). I try to NOT use the camera and I can't play games :(

yeah, or whatsapp, that would be great as I now miss messages regularly bc the app gets killed :mad:
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] nashapps:
No. Settings (i.e. data) is backed up (and restored) using titanium.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] pcphobic:
RC3 so far very stable. No random reboot.

No homescreen redraw issue.

SMS date stamp bug is gone. So no problem there.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] dysa:
Performance / Benchmark?

I'm just curious... has anyone benchmarked CM6 and CM7 on their device?

On my Milestone, I do not see any noticeable difference with my Linpack scores. At 900mhz both CM6(latest) and CM7(rc2) give me scores around the 12.5 range.

I was expecting a slight performance increase as CM7 moved this rom to GB.

I haven't tried CM7(rc3) yet. I'll probably get to that this weekend.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] latino147:
Ah, that would have been weird indeed :)

But is there any other way to backup without using TB?

Maybe a new export feature can be introduced, just like LP does :)

I'm waiting for the new build. RC1 was brilliant. Something's wrong with the media scanner/ google services now.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] salisbury_steak:
Thanks (as always) for the hard work Kabaldan. And for the expectation as well. In that case, I'll just wait for the new build before I flash RC3.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] Alta1r:
Strange, i don't have any problem at all with RC3, even all my music is showing.

I just came from RC2 like most of us.

Anyway, memory managment seems to be much better now than in previous version (which required a restart every day because phone became laggy). It's been on for more than a day and i'm still at 50Mb free.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Lucky you :P. Well, I can always restore Nandroid of RC2, but why bother when build will come fast. And I will install Poweramp Trial until that fix comes :).

In my opinion, if iceandfire ROM is based off CM7, then I guess the same bugs from CM7 will also carry over to iceandfire ROM.

Cos' i can say "i found the best rom which fits Perfectly on my device".

I found just a bug releated to media, but i don't use this feature, so....

That's why i wonder if this last release does anything else.

But i think i'll keep on this.

And also i didn't have to change the boot.img like i did before! !!!!

Music indexing works fine, now.

However, does next/previous song via volume control work for any of you? It used to do with CM6 but I can't get it to work with CM7. I liked it a lot...

Pausing via camera works fine but long pressing the volume control doesn't even trigger any log messages. I tried re-enabling this feature but no luck.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] brysonwong:
hey guys, why does it happen that when i update my phone to RC3, my ext2 apps are all gone from the drawer?!
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Media problem fixed, kabaldan thxx!!!

Btw you'll get much better performance if you disable "lock home app in memory". With that option I had max.30mb of RAM after boot, and max of 50 when all apps where off. Without home locking, 75mb + no force closes of apps and much smoother performance.

I don't care about "home redraws", I can wait 5 seconds for widgets to display :).

Well, if it's the kernels bugs then it IS Motorola's fault bc they don't release a kernel to the public that's ok. And still, If I can't run whatsapp, maps or whatever at the same time (like I can with a Galaxy) it's Motorola's fault :(
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] latino147:
So everytime you enter an app or game or whatever and you get out quickly to do something with your phone you don't mind waiting 5-10 seconds?
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cbstryker:
I don't have that checked in both LauncherPro and in CM7 settings.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] cbstryker:
I'd love to know how you have 75+ MB free. With Bluetooth off, 3 screens, 2 widgets, no "lock" anything in memory, and LauncherPro memory settings set to "light", etc. I manage 42MB free at the best.
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] n3n00:
Sorry, my fault, system info widget sux. Settings say I have 60± mb free, but that is with all apps FCed. I have 1 homescreen, 4 widgets, messaging locked, BUT LP is set to Very Low (working better with less redraws). I repeat, everything force closed. But I have minimal of 29mb and thats fine... i should really post a video or something lol.

First one is all off + drocap, second is tapatalk + settings + drocap.

@latino yes, I don't mind because it "redraws" only when playing Gamelofts games, which I don't have on my phone right now...
[Motorola Milestone Android Development] latino147:
that's interesting, for the first time nou I see LP in my list of open apps. (17-19MB, but I use calender and facebook widget)

I set it's memory usage to low now.

RC3 running well now. I just read a few webpages without freezes or FC's

Between moaning and insulting Motorola I want to take this opportunity to thank Nadlabak for his feroucious patience with us all ;)

Thanks for your brilliant work man, if it weren't for you this phone would have been in a 1000 pieces a few weeks ago ;)

I see you and I have similar results. Mine dropped to rapidly from 50% to 30% while chatting using the Talk app over 2G connection (it uses less battery power).

The chat session was in the time frame of within 20 minutes or less.

Then when I got home (after 10 hours), the battery level showed 15%.

With RC2, after 12 hours, I would have left with 70-80% battery life left.

This is quite strange , but while I was using Miui i dint get a single force close , but I keep getting force closes every now and then with CM7 RC 2 and RC3 .

I like both the ROMs, but the UI of miui is more of a concern coz its more like Iphone , which I am strictly against. A complete hardcore fan of Android and its UI.
