[ROM] CyanogenMod 9.1.0d (Android 4.0.4) [20130107]

Yes, it simply means that we (and other locked devices as well) finally have a proper graphics driver needed by ics.
So we have fully working hwui for any app, Chrome works (though it's too RAM hungry for Milestone to be anyones favorite browser, I guess).
For Milestone it also means one important thing: one nasty bug of the old driver is gone. It plagued Gingerbread as well as ICS - it happened on orientation change.
Under ICS it caused parts of the screen to become black when rotating the phone while running recent Opera Mini (due to hw reset of sgx unit during the change).
Under Gingerbread, it caused crashes in sgx libs on rotation, for which I used workarounds directly in app source (Gallery3D) or in the framework (GoogleMaps).
So I'll try to use the new drivers also in CM7 in the future.
It also means that I upload a new build soon, because I postponed any releases until I'll be able to get the new drivers to work despite the locked kernel.
I'm really happy that I succeeded
What Can I Say ! Just THANK YOU SO MUCH MY DEAR KABLDAN. You're THE BEST :victory::highfive:
Is anybody here using NETFLIX?
I installed lastest build with full HWA, everything is working fine expect for NETFLIX.
The app opens but I cant watch videos!

Hopefully someone compile the nightly soon, so that we can test and feedback. Then will help perfect Kabaldan work. It's going to be headline on xda-developer front page.
post edited the link provide dint boot
LOL just flashed here, stuck on Motorola logo also. Fortunatelly I didn't erase the old build xD
yup same for me ..but performed a nandroid before so no wories
Problem is I'm not able to enter in recovery anymore xD going to flash it all over again.
The last nightly build its the really last one?

Nightly build, 07.07.2012.
New nightly build. And again: ALL credits go to kabaldan for his brilliant work.
I know I have said I shall no longer provide nightlies but current updates are very important (not just for us but for lot of locked-kernel device owners).
Devs are working on proper build bot service and in the meantime...

Just flashed, and seems to be working fine. Did some Quadrant tests, just before today's release, right after flashing and after installing my apps and setting up my environment. You can see the differences for yourselves

Silly Question :
Jelly Bean or in another word CM10 on our MS ?
Sorry and Thanks
Kabaldan said to wait for the JB source code to be released. Untill then, there's nothing that can be done or said about it, but speculation.
From what I've seen, JB is an optimized version of ICS, just like GB were of Froyo. So I think it is perfectly possible to run in our MS, now that Kabaldan did the magic of making ICS run so smoothly. But we must wait for Google to release JB source, and CyanogenMod crew to work on it. If yet Kabaldan be with us (hope so ) we might have it running.
) we might have it running.Flashed the latest build made by mrvek of the great work by kabaldan.
The Rom is as smooth or even better than CM7.2. I'm using Holo launcher because it seems to be lighter than Trebuchet. The only downside of this ROM is the RAM usage really. I had 2 reboots after installing a bunch of apps (dunno why my google play account never remembers my apps even though I always set it to back up my apps) which I belive, caused lack of RAM and therefore a reboot. It is a very good piece of hardwork, congrats kabaldan!

Hi,
Have anyone tried milestone cyanogen mode with griffin helo tc app for their helicopter?
I have tried it, i already tried it with cyanogen 7.2, but i still cant fly. With my stock galaxy tab 10.1 all working without problems.
Does anyone know what could be problem?
Thanks
O.
Ps. Sorry for my english, im czech and not very good at it...

[FIX] update to cm-9-20120707 nightly
IMPORTANT
The provided nighly has wrong module that should unload old sgx pvr modules what can cause panic and reboot on certain occasions. The attached OR flashable update zip has the correct module.
Install:
No wipe is necessary, simply apply through Open Recovery.
You should apply it for both nightlies, ie, the one provided by Skrilax_CZ or me, doesn't matter.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Obviously, it's the CyanogenMod team and all CM contributors in the first place.
Besides that and my own humble work, CM for Milestone would not be where it is now without the essential works of Skrilax_CZ (2nd-init, OpenRecovery, custom kernel, 2ndboot fixes and more), Czechop (hack to the kernel usb initialization code that allows to keep BP working after 2ndboot to custom kernel), f_pasha (gkisystem semaphore patch), Tiago Sousa (author of the original overclock kernel module) and contributions from others that I forgot to list here .
Also worth mentioning is a lot of notable work done by the Defy developers: Epsylon, Quarx and Maniac103
The original 2ndboot code is by Dmitriy Taychenachev and Eugen Maksimov.
Please note that Milestone is not officially supported by CyanogenMod.

OpenRecovery 2ndbootOR: http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod4milestone/downloads/detail?name=OpenRecovery_2ndbootOR_v1_1.zip
Because of limited space in system, gapps are installed to /data/vendor. But if ext partition is present on sdcard, they are moved to /sd-ext.
Therefore ext partition is highly recommended for CM9, otherwise the space for apps in /data will be too limited.
You can find instructions on how to resize fat and create ext3 partition directly in OpenRecovery in this very fine guide by pontomedon:
Full guide from stock Motorola Android to CyanogenMod 7 for Milestone
CM9 for Milestone is using 2ndboot to run custom kernel despite the bootloader kernel lock.
Android 4.x requires at least 340MB RAM available to kernel and userspace
As we have only 225MB, don't expect any miracles - the hardware constrains count.
HW acceleration increases application's RAM demands. You can use the included HWA Settings app to disable it per app.
Known issues:
You tell me .
9.1.0d (4.0.4) 07.01.2013
- fix: keep keyboard backlight off while keyboard is hidden
- fix crash on launch of certain apps (e.g. Aldiko) - use workaround for occasional mysteriously zeroed bitmap scale parameter
- Apollo music player fixes - jellybean backports; reworked image fetching and caching (by iwo)
9.1.0c (4.0.4) 30.12.2012
- call recording: fix recording for calls with asterisk in the phone number
- fix the per app HW acceleration disable code to work according to application package name as specified by HWA Settings app (the original implementation [which pre-dated HWA app usage] used process name, not package name)
- re-implement the 'Disable Dock Observer' option - for users of phone cases with magnetic closures (to prevent the screen turning on in reaction to a magnet appearing near the phone)
9.1.0b (4.0.4) 26.12.2012
- fix VoiceSearch, VoiceTyping and Talk (voice) - please use the updated gapps package http://d-h.st/xd0
- fix adb toggle
- fix possible crash when recording videos and re-enable limited preview frame rate for better Camera app responsiveness
- fix backup of system files (mostly gapps) during ROM updates
- add built-in call recording option; no beeps every 10s during call recording any more
- updated CMFileManager
- wifi: disable 802.11n support by default (HT_Enable in tiwlan.ini) to prevent stale data connections when using certain N routers
- kernel: reverted doubling of the DAC fifo size to 16384 (to prevent audio drop-outs) as it caused broken audio playback in certain games
in case you're wondering why the new build is not uploaded to github as before, see https://github.com/blog/1302-goodbye-uploads
9.1.0a (4.0.4) 11.12.2012
- fix relaunch of some activities on keyboard slide out/in (e.g. YouTube playback, Root Explorer...)
- CMFileManager included (backport from JB)
- fix unwanted lcd-backlight activation by camera button while the screen is off (was related to the light sensor workaround that allows to use camera button to provoke sending of light sensor data without waiting for ALS interrupt)
- better handling of Basband Processor panic (by maniac103) - instead of immediate reboot like in stock firmware, user is notified and can choose to postpone the reboot (e.g. when he's got some work to finish first). Note about the reason of reboot is displayed after restart.
- workarounds for some motorola RIL issues that cause occasional data connectivity problems (by maniac103)
- optional swap activation on boot via /system/etc/init.d/12swap
-- requires swap partition present as third partition on sdcard
-- swap size (in kB) is determined by persist.sys.swapsize property
-- no persist.sys.swapsize property defined or set to 0 means no swap activation
example how to set persist.sys.swapsize property in terminal:
su
setprop persist.sys.swapsize 16384
9.1.0 (4.0.4) 05.12.2012
notable recent fixes and features:
- support for connecting to adhoc wifi
- fixed wifi networking when using UPnP/DLNA apps
- note that this build is done from the branch with removed theme engine,
as the theme support seems to be too heavy, hurting performance of our device
07.03.2012
update-cm-9-20120307-SNAPSHOT-umts_sholes-signed.zip
- video recording (not exactly smooth yet, but working nevertheless)
- added missing sysctl to prevent RAM fragmentation (cause of gmaps freezes)
- etc.
03.03.2012:
- camera is working (only taking pictures, not video recording; panorama mode is not working)
- switched back to Calendar and LatinIME built from source (use the updated gapps-ics-4.0.3-20120302)
- bootanimation is enabled by default, it can be disabled under performance settings
- baseband selection is under device>advanced settings
- usb and native wifi tethering is not working yet (but should be fixed soon, probably in the next build)
14.01.2012:
notes:
- until the open source solution will be ready, Google builds of Calendar and CalendarProvider are installed via gapps to provide Google Calendar sync. Google build of LatinIME is included to provide access to downloadable dictionaries.
- most of the gapps are installed to /data/vendor. if you are updating from earlier CM9 build, use "rm -r /system/*" in recovery console before installation to make sure you don't run out of space in /system because of previously installed gapps
- bootanimation is disabled (debug.sf.nobootanimation=1 in build.prop), because the default bootanim takes more than 80MB of RAM while running, which may cause issues - from very long boot time to bootloops.33To let you know what's going on:
CM10 (Jelly Bean) boots fine here. A lot has been already done and achieved, though there's also a lot of minor issues that will need more work.
What's important - there doesn't seem to be any show stopper at this point.
CM9/ICS is more or less dead from the moment of JB release, therefore I fully focus on bringing CM10 to omap3 / Milestone now.
(Indeed, CM7 for Milestone will also get a significant update, hopefully sometime soon, when JB frenzy will cease a bit).30
Accelerated video encoding already works fine.
It's the hw accelerated video decoding, and that is still a problem (on every omap3 device running ics). But I dare to say that it's really the last hard bit remaining to be solved.
Anyway, the ICS for Milestone has reached a point I wouldn't dream about at all in the beginning.
