Hi, maybe someone already asked you but:

Could we have a "music switcher" on the lockscreen, like on the Iphone?

Thank's for your work and good job!
[Milestone 2 General] Liori:
Is there any way to disable the dashes between numbers in the dialler?

Edit: OK I solved it myself. Install Morelocale2 and change the locale to en.GB
[Milestone 2 General] luuly:
Great ROM!

Hey everybody,

thank you for this great ROM :) but there is still an issue with the german QWERTZ hardware keyboard. Now that "z" and "y" are switched "6" and "<" are still at the wrong position :( could you please also fix that? ;)
[Milestone 2 General] Motofan1996:
you can fix this little problem qith the qwertz.zip file from the android development thread..

i've got a little problem , too.. When i wanted to search with google in the "normal" rom i just have to write something with my keyboard on the homescreen, but now it won't go, can i fix it? I hope so and when i want to google in browser like typing a url the browser exits? Can I do something for fixing this 2 little problems? Otherwise I really love your ROM;)

Hi,

(Since I'm a noob on Xda, I post here instead of in the dev's thread...)

With the french translation and keyboard layout available, I finally tested your rom on my device.

So, first of all, great work indeed, I really like Gingerstone theme, the cleanup you did in stock apps, which really makes the phone more responsive, frees ram and saves battery, and the magicbox system... I'm eagerly waiting for the upcoming deblurred version !

Here are some points that prevents me from totally swiching to Argentstone yet, most of them concern french localization, but probabily applies to other languages as well :

-You did a great work in theme translation and kb-layout, but most of the apps in your rom still are in english on my phone (Browser, messaging, some widgets, sd-card explorer, gallery...) Is there a way to translate them too, or did I miss something?

-It's not especially important, but phone numbers in the rom are automatically displayed as 012-345-6789. It's a bit disturbing for french people who are used to 0123456789...

-Have you considered integrating the baseband config app in your magicbox?

It was a little tricky to use it (now I know how to draw "cancel" in chinese :) )

-Is a GUI version of magicbox planned ? With bootlogo and theme preview, it would be awsome... Actually, it's quite powerful, but not really user-friendy...

-French hardware keyboard layout is now fine, but the virtual one was still a qwerty...

I also missed french orthographic correction and accents : éèàê... (are chosen on an on-screen menu which opens when long-pressing the corresponding letter)

-After a /data wipe, contacts importation (from a .vcf file) failed.

It seemed importation process was ok, but in the end, no new entries...

(But when I fully restored my old /data, contacts were there, and working correctly)

-This one is especially selfish : Openvpn integration would be great since the available pp2p and l2tp are often impossible on mobile data connexions.

Having a full internet access in tethering would be awsome.

Once again, thank you for all the work you already did, I'm looking forward to the next versions...

Feedback from China

maybe social network parts should be optional.That‘s of some use.In my country(China),it's a convient way to get acess to facebook and twiiter cuz I don't have VPN.

And I do love your ROM very much,it's beautiful and highly effective and with less bug.

The China version of milestone2 provides direct support on .rmvb and .avi format,and longer battery life.If you want one for researching,I'm very pleased to deliver you a copy of the sfb file .
[Milestone 2 General] deutschmark:
installed this yesterday, it's working without any hassle, thx and looking forward to further updates
[Milestone 2 General] mkmck:
Hello. First of all I am noob for now so please, don't beat me if I am talking rubbish :P

I'd like to know, is there any chance to make a translation for any rom? I mean, Moto Poland has informed us yesterday, there won't be a polish version of the M2. So I'd like to know, is that possible to make such language?
[Milestone 2 General] skaburn:
sorry if I'm noob, but I can't find how to install clockwork recovery, i found only a guide that told: install milestone 2 bootstrap app.

rom manager also doesn't recognize milestone 2, but suggest only milestone, droid 2 or droid x.

thank you.
[Milestone 2 General] mnx:
install droid2 bootstrap to have recovery mode
[Milestone 2 General] gwunit:
Very nice work with the Motorola image. But can anybody tell me how the spell check works in android?

Sent from my A953
[Milestone 2 General] achozen:
need help.

Hey everyone, I don't understand how too install this can someone just give me a small step by step please, when I try too install the phone just reboots as normal, so please a step by step guide will be very helpful for me.

Thank you
[Milestone 2 General] AragornPE:
Hi achozen, I had the same problem as you. 2 things first:

- You must have Droid 2 Bootstrap installed on your phone (Actually the app should be named Droid/Milestone 2 Bootstrap since it works on both models).

- You MUST have the files santiemanuel listed on his topic on Development on sdcard, in folder /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/anyfolder (create a folder with any name you want, but it has to have a folder inside /backup. If you can't find backup folder inside /sdcard/clockworkmod/, create one named backup and inside it another folder with any name. I named mine Argen2Stone).

Ok, now that you have the files and have Droid 2 Bootstrap installed, click on Bootstrap Recovery, press ok when asked and then Reboot recovery, then wait for the phone to reboot. The phone will reboot on ClockWorkMod Recovery.

-Choose the option "wipe cache partition" and Yes. When done, choose the option "backup and restore", then "restore". Choose the folder you created for the files. This will take a while. When done, choose "reboot system now" and let the phone boot. It will take another while, don't worry, mine booted for about 5min for the 1st time, it's ok. After that, Argen2Stone will be installed. You can be sure that it was installed if the bootanimation changes to a Android robot with a glowing green circle around it. You just need to configure it now. Just follow santiemanuel's instructions on his post on Development section. You will need a terminal emulator.

santiemanuel, I loved the work you done with this ROM. Currently I'm using Ginger2Stone and Zegoe Light, and it's beautiful. Well done man. I really liked the Coca Cola bootlogo and the BIOS boot animation, just brilliant. Thank you for this. I'd like to ask you one thing:

I currently have a 8gb class4 microsd card, but I also have a 16gb class 10 microsd card. It doesn't work very well with Milestone 2, whenever I transfer more than 200mb of music to it, music player takes ages to switch musics, that when it doesn't crash, and I can't lock the phone or it will become unresponsible, the screen goes black, it doesn't respond to the capacitive buttons or hardware buttons, but if I press the power/lock button, it lights up/turns off the backlights. Currently I have 5gbs on the 8gb sdcard and the phone is working properly. I've already made sure that it isn't the card's fault, I tested it with h2test entirely and found no errors. Researching, I found that other Milestone 2 owners had the same problem with high class sd cards (anything above class 6) (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=921895) but, up to now, I got no real answers. Is that a file system problem or hardware problem, and if it's a file system problem, can it be corrected? Thanks in advice!
[Milestone 2 General] cyaniris:
Another selfish suggestion of openvpn integration ;)
[Milestone 2 General] AragornPE:
Sorry, doublepost
[Milestone 2 General] deutschmark:
can anybody please send me a motoginger icon from the blur email client? i'd love to use it for the k9mail instead of the ugly native icon but cant find it in the apk for some reason

edit: found it in framework-res.apk

ps. a motoginger themed reader & facebook icons would be awesome as well ;)

thx in advance
[Milestone 2 General] Jimb008:
Hi Guys,

Good job on the rom, love it.

But quick question. Has anyone managed to get the FM Radio working?
[Milestone 2 General] mnx:
I don't think the app can work because of hardware.
[Milestone 2 General] cobo_:
I tried to re-install the MyNet Motorola wireless tethering app santiemanuel uploaded (as well as my own from the factory Optus setup) but either won't list in the app drawer after a reboot.

I used Root Explorer to copy the apk into /system/app and adjusted permissions to match other apks (rw-r--r-- also tried rwxrwxrwx).

Can anyone point out any mistakes I've made or another way to get the MyNet.apk app working? (This is my first Android phone so still learning the ropes).

I should also note I suspect the issue might be due to the current file owner (system) of group (sdcard_rw), but am unsure. Should I try to just change user and group to "root" and that'll get it working? If so, how do I do this on an Android phone?

Thanks in advance!
[Milestone 2 General] deutschmark:
i've been using this rom for a week and i really like it so far.. here is a few bugs i've found:

browser crashes when entering something else than url in the address/search bar (fixed with copying googlequicksearchbox.apk into system/app and giving appropriate permissions, rw-r--r--)

phone rebooted two times without any reason, after such a reboot the phone can't fall asleep, battery history shows 100% running even if nothing is happening, i had to turn it off and on again to function properly

i made "zipalign apks" in the roottools and after reboot i was unable to sign into gtalk and reader, most interesting is that restoring to previous backups didn't work as well! i had to do factory wipe and re-installing all the apps again to get that working

after the wipe my phone was unable to receive gsm signal in the subway (weird :), fixed that with baseband changer

changing hard keyboard light mode in roottools doesn't work, "build property is not supported", tried two build.props - the one that was in the .img and the fixed one

hope this is of help to anybody experiencing similar problems

looking forward to further updates! man i LOVE this rom !!!
[Milestone 2 General] caioketo:
Hey guys,

do you have some kind of date to release the blurless version?

Im just waiting this version to install the room
[Milestone 2 General] Jimb008:
Is there anyway of restoring phone portal? Many thanks
[Milestone 2 General] Liori:
santiemanuel, is your server currently down? I cannot access the resources.
[Milestone 2 General] santiemanuel:
Sorry for the delay. its correctly working.
[Milestone 2 General] frenetico:
ATM it's not working at all.

My Terminal Emulator says, that it can't access your server. In addition I'm not able to access to your server via my browser on my desktop computer. :(

Edit: Now everthing's working fine. (:
[Milestone 2 General] jambo89liam:
Nice rom i really like the visuals, i was unable to get the 1.5 update working,my phone got stuck on the "M" boot screen
[Milestone 2 General] DeadSix17:
remove your SD Card android files.. like sdcard/data/ and sdcard/.android_secure and so on.. (you dont have to remove your music and other stuff)
[Milestone 2 General] jambo89liam:
Cheers will give that a go.
[Milestone 2 General] jambo89liam:
Should i factory reset, or clear cache because when i clear cache i get stuck on the boot logo. I have removed all android files from the SD card.
[Milestone 2 General] jambo89liam:
cheers managed to get it working. Liking the boot up song Daft punk eh!
[Milestone 2 General] luuly:
What did you do to get it working?
[Milestone 2 General] jambo89liam:
Deleted all android data folders.

Cleared cache installed rom.

at this point it still didn't work so I tried factory reset and installed again.

it still didn't work, so I decided to check if it had re created the folders I had previously deleted.

it recreated the .android_secure folder so using my micro sd card reader I deleted this again put the sd back in my phone rebooted and it worked.
[Milestone 2 General] jambo89liam:
I recently installed a new theme using magicbox/rootools and again my phone is stuck at the boot logo. I have tried removing android files from the SD card, but this did not help. I will re install the rom again and see if this works.
[Milestone 2 General] luuly:
Thank you jambo89liam. But for me its still not working after factory reset. I tried 2 SD-Cards which i formated with the MS2 as well as with my laptop. Even booting without SD-Card doesn't work :(

The only way the new rom boots is to update the old one without doing a factory reset. But after the update my phone became very very slow :(

Edit: Now it's working :) And I really like the new update :cool:
[Milestone 2 General] Motofan1996:
If i want to restore argenstone 1.5 there just standed: md5-mismatch ? What did I wrong and how can I fix this problem ? MFG
[Milestone 2 General] luuly:
MD5 mismatch looks like an error while downloading the file. You could try to download the rom from another mirror...
[Milestone 2 General] aleite44:
I guess I must have done something wrong. When I flashed my phone, the theme switched but none of the apps were removed. What could it be?
[Milestone 2 General] imakdevries:
I'm in big trouble. On startup the phone hangs at the m logo. My ms2 won't go into recovery mode when I restart the phone. The phone was empty I charged it and when i try to start the bootloader it says that the battery is too low. Eventhough the phone has been in the charger for a good 18 hours now.
[Milestone 2 General] evooo:
would it not work if i run the argen2stone on a non brazil base firmware

i seems to got the droid 2 bootstrap, and got in to the clockworkmod ok, but after i restore the argen 2 stone file, i cant seems to get the system to boot into the rom, it just stays at the motorola logo
[Milestone 2 General] jayhamz:
Have been using argen2stone 1.5 since yesterday if u get stck at bot remve battery boot intoo CWM and reboot I must say BIG thank you too santiemanuel the rom is tight!!!
[Milestone 2 General] jambo89liam:
Have you tried powering on without the battery. I had a similar problem a month ago my phone wouldn't charge and eventually the side charge light wouldn't turn on at all, I sent it back for repair. Took about 2 weeks to get parts replaced.
[Milestone 2 General] imakdevries:
Thanx but no that wont work.
[Milestone 2 General] frenetico:
santiemanuel, would it be possible to add a button for rebooting the phone into the menu, which pops up, when you hold the power button?

I've seen that before on various phones and I think such a button/option would be great.
[Milestone 2 General] pilottinho:
The rom is awesome, incredible faster.

Thank you, keep on the wonderful work
[Milestone 2 General] imakdevries:
happy, happy and happy. I got my external charger today and after charging the battery I was able to flash the original Linksbf. So its working again!!
[Milestone 2 General] Faryds:
I'm here as I did on your original thread in GrupoAndroid to congratulate you.

Thanks!
[Milestone 2 General] Faryds:
I know you can do that if you install "Extended Controls" from Applanet.

It is a widget and one of the icons you can set up is to turn the phone off (requires rooting)
[Milestone 2 General] frenetico:
I don't really like having a homescreen full with widgets and toggles - that's why I asked. But thanks.
[Milestone 2 General] chris0202:
To santiemanuel,

thank you for your work. I'm really interested in trying out your rom.

BTW, is there a threat specially for bugs? I would like to know the bugs first, if there are any. I found it a little difficult to read through your long thread in the developing section.

Keep up the good work!
[Milestone 2 General] lrfabreu:
Congratulations santimanuel for your very good job!!

I´m not a developer, but a hard user and the Argent2stone is running on my MM2 with launcher Regina 3D ;-).

Thanks!!
[Milestone 2 General] lrfabreu:
Santi, i can´t put the Social Network App on my homescreen in Argent2Stone18.

What happen??

Thanks for your job!
[Milestone 2 General] santiemanuel:
I will post the solution in the other topic, more visited.
[Milestone 2 General] Jimb008:
Hi,

I have updated to 1.8. Now i have noticed that my home and search soft keys dont work.

Also i used to use GOTO lockscreen. I have uninstalled it not but have no lockscreen at all. Is there a way to restore stock/whateve should be with 1.8
[Milestone 2 General] miskov666:
I have updated to version 1.8 too, and now hardware keybord lights dont working at all. How to fix it?
[Milestone 2 General] cmxyz:
update to 1.8 too ,and my keyboard lights is just fine .And i replaced ADW with Launcher Pro ,is feels great now!
[Milestone 2 General] santiemanuel:
The edited line to make screen off faster is a bit buggy too turn on the kb lights. To disable it edit the following line in build.prop:

ro.mot.hw.dispbl.anim=1 (1 to 0 and reboot)

[Milestone 2 General] sahilarora911:
Santi: You seemed to have removed the overclock setting chart from your post in the DEV section. Is there somewhere I can get it?
[Milestone 2 General] santiemanuel:
Thanks for the advice. Tapatalk issue. I will get them back asap. Im on my phone.
[Milestone 2 General] sahilarora911:
I'll wait for it then. Thanks!!
[Milestone 2 General] SedaG:
SBF File

Do we have to flash some sort of .sbf file to get it working correctly? I've seen it mentioned a few times but will flashing a brazillian .sbf file affect its functionality in the U.S.? If we do need a .sbf, where can I get it?

Here's what I'm getting:

Finally got a good version of the download (So many times file was corrupted) and restored Argen2stone in Nandroid successfully, and also restored boot.img, however it will never boot up.

After hitting reboot, I'll get the "Moto M" circle logo, than the word android with a light flashing through it a few times, then it goes back to "Moto M" circle logo and stays there FOREVER, also like OP mentions, if it gets stuck at this point, I pull out battery and reboot again in ClockWordRecovery. This time, it just stays on the "Moto M" forever the second it pops up and will never boot.

Any answers appreciated and thanks in advance! :)

-SedaG
[Milestone 2 General] sahilarora911:
The steps should be:

1. Flash Brazilian SBF 3.12 using RSD lite 4.9

2. Root your phone and install Bootstrap recovery.

3. Restore using Nandroid back up from Agren2Stone 1.8

4. Restore your data.img (if you have created your own back up)

5. Reboot

I don't think there should be any problem in flashing Brazilian SBF for US. I guess you guys are on the same GSM bands (850/1900 unless you are using T-Mo).

I hope I didn't miss out anything. (If I did, someone please correct me)
[Milestone 2 General] SedaG:
Where can I get the Brazilian SBF 3.12 file? (I've searched all over !!)

Thanks by the way, confirms proper sbf was what I am missing! :)

Edit: So I found this, hxxp://and-developers.com/sbf:milestone2 and went to the Brazil. While it fits the EXACT description that sahilarora put (Thanks again), I want to make sure before I flash something random to my phone and if this file/website is legitimate.

-SedaG
[Milestone 2 General] sahilarora911:
The website is legit. The download links provided there are from a forum member DeadSix17 (We all are thankful to him for that)
[Milestone 2 General] SedaG:
Thank you! I'm having trouble with RSD Lite now you but that's unrelated to the ROM. I'll post if I finally get it figured out.

Thanks again,

-SedaG
[Milestone 2 General] TH3.BUG:
I tried Argen2Stone with German SBF. My Stone seems quite fast... but i had some problems with with freezes during the M-bootlogo. :(

So lets give it a 2nd try with Brazilian SBF :rolleyes:

Is there a reason why you say "Flash Brazilian SBF 3.12 using RSD lite 4.9"?

I use RSD lite 5.0 :confused:

Thanks for your great work!

ps: how do i get the good old gray theme back my stone was shipped with? I don't like that blue one ;). Is there a package i can install with roottools?
[Milestone 2 General] sahilarora911:
RSD Lite 4.9 is the one with which users have faced least issues. I believe that is why it is recommended.

There was the stock theme available through roottools. But for now, Santi has disabled switching to that since it is not ready for Argent2Stone 1.8. I think it might be available in a while.

Santi: Thanks for putting the overclock chart (and other screenshots) back.
[Milestone 2 General] SedaG:
Finally! I got it working. It looks and feels great and is extremely fast. Loving it so far. Don't know if ADW is my favorite launcher but I love the animations of everything. Great work!
[Milestone 2 General] Neuralsystem:
thanks for the great work! Santiemanuel, do u have some project to bring android 2.3 working with m2?
[Milestone 2 General] santiemanuel:
I dont have the skills for build from sources. BUT if someday Motorola releases at least a leak of GB, I will customize it.
[Milestone 2 General] erp2010x:
what is the name of boot animation of the first Argen2stone?
[Milestone 2 General] santiemanuel:
Particles, but its not in the menu(adding soon), you can try the last 3 instead.
[Milestone 2 General] lrfabreu:
There is a newer version of Argent2Stone?

Tks.
[Milestone 2 General] lrfabreu:
Let me correct the question: is there any test-version of Argent2Stone?

I would like to test too if it is posssible.

Tks.

Magicbox Issues

The magic box never works correctly for me when downloading themes!

Downloading theme...

Connecting to santimanuel.grupoandroid.com (some numbers)

update.zip *insert progress bar here*

areShutdown: not found

rebooting to install theme..

Then in clockwork recovery the update will always fail to open the package because the directory it downloaded to is empty(no file is there). Also I'm curious as to what it's doing when its downloading the themes then.
[Milestone 2 General] WongJames:
My ms2 has experienced random reboots with v1.8 :(

Now back to 1.5, so far so good =p
[Milestone 2 General] TH3.BUG:
Is it possible to add support for other Players for the controlbar on the lockscreen?

Or is it possible to program a app to connect the lockscreen with a other Player?

I'm new to android development, but I'm advanced in java, so i would take the challenge. :cool:

Would be great if you could post some information how the lockscreen control gets his data :)
[Milestone 2 General] santiemanuel:
Decompile android.policy.jar, lockscreen.smali

Enviado desde mi A953 usando Tapatalk
[Milestone 2 General] M@jkel:
+10 to that! I'm using PowerAMP and it would be great to have an ability to control it via lockscreen controls
[Milestone 2 General] TH3.BUG:
Liberty Rom v2 for Droid X and Droid 2 seems to have a awesome universal control.

Do you think it would be possible to adapt this for the next Argen2Stone Release? :)

I decompiled the file you said... but it looks confusing :D

Seems like i first had to take a look on how the Android internals work :rolleyes:

But i will also take a look on the one from Liberty Rom and will look what i can do ;)
