[Droid X General] mikecico:
Hi all,

I just had my DX replaced this week, been having issues with it resetting periodically on its own. It happened again yesterday with the new phone. This issue has been going on since last August when I bought the first phone. New phone has been rock-solid otherwise.

It seems to happen more frequently when GPS is in use. Yesterday's reset happened right after I clicked on the GPS and went into Navigator.

It hung for some length of time, and then reset. I'm assuming the Android OS detected a deadlock condition and did an automatic reset.

Has anyone experienced this before? At this point, I'm wondering if it's related to data services in a race condition with each other when on 3G only, and the system deadlocks at the driver level. Total guess though.

Thanks,

Mike
[Droid X General] SeanRinVA:
I'd say try a factory reset or SBF. If that doesn't fix the problem, I'd say you need another replacement.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] Aekio:
Hi guys,

I lately have used my Motorola MileStone to record video often and I found that the Video Recorder quality is good enough for my project but not the sound quality.

Do you guys have any suggestion on the Mic that can use with the Motorola MileStone native Camera Recorder? A wireless microphone would we perfect, or at least the 3.5 jack Mic that can give you better quality in sound recording?

Please do kindly help. I'm now in needed of this accessory to complete my project.

Thank you.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] Aekio:
Any idea or suggestion you guys have?

Please, only a small information would be such a great thanks.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] neato4u:
Well considering the fact that you WILL eventually dump the recorded video into your video editing application - why don't you record the video and audio separately?

Get a decent audio recorder (eg. an mp3 recorder or whatsoever), and then just replace the video audio track with the one that you have recorded.

I would assume there would be some syncing process. But that's the easiest way to do it without any hack or whatsoever. Just plain basic.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superstick1:
Hi there. I just came back from a leadership camp with my fellow students and i was acting as one of the facilitators there. We have played many games, conducting team interviews, public speaking etc.

I was told to monitor the time for each individual students to, say, express their true feelings to everyone in the team for 2 minutes.

I use my Desire HD's timer to play with it. Everytime after 2 minutes, the beep sounds will be on and the next person starts.

I use that tool many times and it went well. However, after using it many times, once the beep sound kicks off. It NEVER turns off. Even after i shut down my phone the alarm still ON. The only way for me to shut the alarm off is to remove its battery. And it back to normal.

I wonder what goes wrong and did anyone here know why this happens? A bug? Possible solutions?

Thank you. =)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marleyb:
Sorry I have to give you a HTC helpdesk like answer :)

Reset your phone to factory and see if it helps, make backup first of course, if this does not work revert back to stock and see if that is of any help.

[Nook Color General] mindcandy:
Hi all,

I'm running Phiremod V5 on my NookColor but am keen to have the Nook app installed (not included as standard in the ROM). Since I'm based in the UK currently I can't install it via the Android Market and searches via Google/AppBrain and the likes seem to point me back there.

Is anyone able to provide me with a copy of the app in a format that I can load from an SD card?

If not, can anyone tell me how to access the Android Market using my PC? I normally use Hotspot Shield to generate a US IP address when buying eBooks so I'm guessing there may be a way of connecting my Nook to the PC using internet connection sharing?

Seems wrong using the Kindle app to read books on a Nook and the Kindle app doesn't do well with the kids books.

Thanks for your help.

I just missed the exec /system/bin/init_prep_keypad thanks!
[Milestone 2 Android Development] inheme:
What is this for?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] r2beta0:
A method to customize initialization scripts of android system. It's a major hack used be some Milestone1 custom ROM's. I've succeeded into porting this to MS2, and I think some modders here of XDA may be interested into adding this to custom ROM's. It may be added to the stock ROM (as I did) but it is not something that everyone is willing to try.

Word of advise: If you don't know what it is you don't need it :)
[Milestone 2 Android Development] inheme:
Ok thanks for the explanation

So it means that custom roms will be easier to create?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] momus87:
That's some major news for our little community.

Tell me if I'm wrong, but since init starts after the kernel is loaded, it's not useful at all for loading a custom kernel, true?

But having a custom init script is a step to CyanogenMod 6 port on Milestone 2, still true?

Anyways, great job, and great howto.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] r2beta0:
To load a custom kernel we'll need that kexec hack that team freemymoto is working on.

Well, it's possible, but I believe the big issue here is the impossibility of running custom kernels. Even so, a skilled Modder may be able to overcome that and port CM6 to MS2 using Motorola's stock kernel. It has been done for the MS1.

You're welcome.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] smacky_wolf:
Thanks, r2beta0... this is going to help us out a lot!
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Moody:
Guess that would be me :p

nah just kidding. I've just happened to have some luck porting Froyo and Gingerbread to the bootloader-locked x10 mini pro. I've just ordered my milestone 2 and I will work on CM6. AWESOME JOB on the 2nd init man! Really, thanks!!

edit: just can't stop thanking you! You saved me a lot of work and porting CM will be easy as sh*t for me now! THANKS :D
[Milestone 2 Android Development] r2beta0:
You're welcome! You can count on me to provide as much help as I can to free our MS2's from Motorola's hand. I would be very grateful if you could share your knowledge of porting CM to locked devices. I was trying to port MIUI and Shadow mod BR to MS2 but I got stuck when dealing with proprietary files.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] demolition23:
@r2beta0

Could this port work on Motorola defy?

Sent from my MOTO Defy :-)
[Milestone 2 Android Development] r2beta0:
It's very likely, since the 2 devices are very similar. Most of the files I attached are from Milestone1 and works perfectly on MS2. Though I recommend you to NOT replace your *.rc files with the attached ones since they could be not compatible. It would be better if you edit your own files. Also try it ONLY if you have a working version of ClockworkMod Recovery (or other custom recovery). You may adapt this guide for your device and post it here on XDA, just remember to mention my name on credits :)
[Milestone 2 Android Development] demolition23:
Already posted and hoping someone to port this..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1003449
[Milestone 2 Android Development] r2beta0:
BTW, why do you want to use 2nd-init? You know, this guide is more inclined for devs/mods who want (need) to include this feature on their ROM's. With this you can change the way things are loaded on linux system before android starts up. But to take advantage of that you should know a lot about how linux works and so on. Regular users should look for a ROM based on the features he needs. Most ROM's already have 2nd-init implemented, but it's not something users are aware of.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] smacky_wolf:
Possible issue I've come across:

When replacing sh, i can no longer re-open the shell for obvious reasons... potentially I need to already have a second terminal open with shell running in it already?

SBFing and trying again :3
[Milestone 2 Android Development] r2beta0:
I had no such issue here. When executing the steps of this guide I kept two windows opened all the time. One command prompt to run adb push/pull and another window running adb shell.

Thanks to point that out! I will post a warning in the main post. You should have a adb shell window already running to be able to run chmod just after replacing sh.

But don't worry, you don't need to SBF. Just reboot into clockwork recovery, mount /system via menu, and open your adb shell. It uses a different shell so you can fix the problem in /system/bin.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] syl0n:
Looks like Motorola Defy now has CyanogenMod 7 using 2nd-init script! Wish same were the case for MS2.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] Moody:
I'm on it, but development is slow
[Milestone 2 Android Development] keylight65:
No necessary to use 2nd init.

Just install "droid 2 bootstrap" and Rom Manager will work perfectly.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] r2beta0:
What are you talking about? This guide isn't related to ROM Manager.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] keylight65:
Why install 2nd-init? Just to have recovery on M2.

There is another simple way to have recovery on M2.

Simply installing Doid2bootstrap (available on market),

and run it.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] r2beta0:
I think you didn't understand the purpose of this guide. It isn't intended to teach how to install another recovery. In fact it requires Droid2bootstrap. 2nd-init is method of allowing advanced users to start liniux programs and scripts before android boots-up. With this you can potentially overclock, undervolt, change JAR libs used to start-up android and many other things. It is not a custom recovery.

Nice! Now available in a update.zip.

This is just to get the thread up.

Sent from my Milestone 2 XDA App
[Milestone 2 Android Development] r2beta0:
Also don't forget to mount /system before applying the update :)
[Milestone 2 Android Development] dangpzanco:
Does it change anything if I apply without modifying the script?

Sent from my Milestone 2 XDA App
[Milestone 2 Android Development] r2beta0:
You don't need to modify the script. You need to use the ClockWork Recovery menu option (mounts and storage >> mount /system) to mount /system as RW before applying the zip. I don't know why this part of the script isn't working, but if you mount /system by the menu before applying it will work fine. If you don't the script won't do anything.
[Milestone 2 Android Development] dangpzanco:
Ok I get it, thanks! If the /system isn't mounted where the update.zip would extract? That's the point.

Hey, after I applied the update.zip I can't use root/su/whatever. How do I fix it?

Sent from my Milestone 2 XDA App
[Milestone 2 Android Development] r2beta0:
For some reason the named MTD mount didn't work on my updater-script, so it was unable to mount /system prior to change it. As a quick fix I replaced the line

mount("MTD", "system", "/system");

with this one

mount("ext3", "/dev/block/system", "/system");

and now it is working as it should (at least on my phone). I've just uploaded the new version to the main page. Have fun!
[Milestone 2 Android Development] r2beta0:
This was an Issue of the first version of the updater script but I fixed it on recent versions. It happened because I was replacing the su binary together with 2nd init. Anyway to fix that you should re-root your phone with SuperOneClick.

Manero e aprecio seu esforço, mas por enquanto nao serve pra nada. Ja que temos o maldito bootloader fechado ainda.

Abraços!
[Milestone 2 Android Development] r2beta0:
English please.

Edit1: Bootloader on Milestone1 is still locked. Locked bootloaders don't prevent us to use custom ROMs, it just prevent us to replace boot partition and kernel. That's where 2nd-init can help, it has the ability to replace boot scripts (but not kernel) and force the system to start all over using the new scripts. Detailed info here http://cvpcs.org/blog/2011-06-14/2nd-init._what_it_is_and_how_it_works. Also Defy and DroidX have locked bootloaders and both have official CM support.

Have you downloaded source from android git or Cyanogen git?

How did you setup milestone2 vendor?

Have you checked for permissions on vendor directory?
[Milestone 2 Android Development] dangpzanco:
1. Both, but used android on this.

2. Grabbed milestone2 proprietary files from motorola.opensource.com (one by one and extracted with unpack.pl that came along) version 2.2.16 (i think so, it's the only one packed with a perl script, and the only one that worked).

3. There's no vendor directory for motorola on android sources (just for cyanogen)

I also started making a vendor setup for milestone2 on cyanogen. Grabbed source (the way Defy's CM7 says) copied /devices/motorola/jordan and /vendor/motorola/jordan to milestone2 and started changing names from jordan to milestone2 on Makefiles and stuff.

And I managed to build the kernel from source (!!!), but I can't flash it (bootloader)...I was trying to compile some modules also:

mtd-hack.c and mtd_dumpall.c

The first one did well, but my kernel is different from the source, so I couldn't test... It looks for 2.6.32.9, but finds 2.6.32.9-eng (from gb leak) and exits.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ScottHW:
Just upgraded from ADW.Launcher (1.3.6, stock in CM7) to ADWLauncher EX 1.2.2. Happy to support the Dev on this brilliant launcher.

I created a custom Catalog in the Drawer, and want change some of the Apps listed.

(App Drawer>select a custom catalog>) [Menu] >Setup Group>

If I choose to Check or Uncheck different apps, then Press [OK], the changes aren't reflected in the Catalog. Even closing the App Drawer and repoening it doesn't reflect the changes.

I have to change to a different Catalog (either Choose Group, or with the Catalogs navigation arrows*) then change back before the app changes are reflected.

I only notice this and report it as a minor bug because I believe that in ADW.Launcher 1.3.6, this wasn't the case.

Does anyone else notice this same glitch?
