Don't know if this happens on other roms cause I just noticed it when I was bored. When you slide out keyboard just a bit and then slide it back in and repeat that few times phone reboots.
I was playing with VM heap size, and I found some interesting conclusions. Maybe it was discussed earlier, but I don't understand why default value is so small.
On default values, the games often crashed during loading, and my launcher lost the icon cache (Go launcher ex). When I increased it to 36MB, many of the games started working (some slower than others). Now I incresed it to 42, and games are running smoothly, launcher don't crash, killing all apps from the launcher leaves 70MB of ram (without killing at the moment it shows 37MB available). I didn't found any unstabilities or FC. So why to lower this value so much? To increase multitasking capabilities? (I can run connect bot, demanding instant messaging communicator and a game, and nothing FCs with 42MB).

Well, I wrote about it more than several times already and it's not very entertaining to repeat myself again and again.
The last time I mentioned VM heap size is here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=21744852#post21744852
I'll just add what I also said before - I've never experienced Google Maps freeze while using 24MB heap size. When set to anything higher, the Gmaps freeze will sooner or later happen.

I'm gettint bit confused about this precache issue on GMAPs...
First I thought it was fixed with that performance option, but it doesn't.
Then I thought the issue it only on precache counter, it show as '0' but in fact the cache still there, showing the area I did precached before..
but today I tried to check the area offline again and was not cached anymore. =/
Anyone knows where this precached area is stored on phone?? Is on Memory card or on phone?
What is causing this precache cleaning??

Whoever has problems with Wi-Fi:
reboot to recovery, open console and enter
and reboot. You will have to re-configure your wifi networks after this.Code:rm -R /data/misc/wifi exit
Also make sure you have correct Wifi Regulatory domain selected.
Settings>Wireless & network>Wi-Fi settings>menu>Advanced>Regulatory domain.
Select appropriate value (11-US, 13-EU, 14-JP), then menu>Save

Please, read a few pages back of this thread and you'll find solution to your problems.

Had the same problem, it is already answered and solved by nadlabak a few pages ago. Just look back. You just have to boot into OpenRecovery and write something in Console/Terminal.
There are two lines in /system/build.prop named "sys.keep_app_1=" and "...2"
Here you can enter process names.
You can figure them out with... Auto Memory Manager
Keep in mind that this option locks the app's priority to 0 which means totally unkillable.
If you want to stop such an app you'll have to go to the running apps in Android settings and press "Stop process".
If you kill it via Taskkiller or any other app it will restart.
NOFI but I changed the VM heap to 40MB and I can now actually start Google Maps without instantly hanging and crashing the device and regressing to this state. (I found out that clearing the caches helps fixing it. I was locked in that state now a few times without it being fixed after a few normal reboots)
I don't want to imply you should change the default setting but you could advise people with instability problems to change the setting.

Yes I know, I was just surprised that it happened all of a sudden. BTW if you want to save your list of wifi passwords, copy wpa_supplicant.conf in /data/misc/wifi before you clear it, then paste the contents back into the new blank file that is formed after reboot.
Wifi works again and I didn't lose my list of hotspots.

EDIT: AHA! Found the wifi bug!
After I did the above, the wifi broke again after a day. What it does is just say connecting. I took a closer look at the wpa_supplicant.conf file and I noticed a new line:
ap_scan=2
Once, I commented that out (use #), wifi was fixed! I took the # away just to confirm, and again, wifi was broken!

Kabaldan,
Here's more on my RAM usage issue. I've uploaded two screenshots. One about 26 hours after boot, and one about 5 minutes after boot. Same services running, and about 20-24mB of "missing" RAM. Also, the totals (used + available) don't match each other. One is 152mB total, the other is 159mB total.
Is there any way I can see exactly what is taking up the "used" GRAY portion...in addition to the services? All ram usage apps I've tried show values that are much too high for each app.

I have a problem that I hadn't suffered during several months...
When I am in Talk, writing with the hardware keyboard some keys trigger some system apps:
C -> Contacts
B -> Browser
etc.
I just installed CM7 after full wipe some days ago, so don't know why it's happening now.

Use procrank and/or ddms, see http://elinux.org/Android_Memory_Usage
The "used" gingerbread running services info includes only part of the memory allocations. The reported values are not to be expected to make a reasonable totals. This has been changed/fixed in ics.
Sorry, but I can't recommend to set the max allowed vm heap size to higher value than 24MB in the case of such RAM limited HDPI device as Milestone.
I don't think that your issues have anything to do with the max heap size setting.
Damaged settings of an app like gmaps can be reset by that app's cache/data deletion, as you pointed out.
All you achieve by setting higher VM heap size is that the garbage collector will be more relaxed. It will be kicking-in later to find and free the no longer referenced RAM. That's all.
If some badly written app would request bigger heap size than the max allowed, there would be very clear dalvikvm-heap 'Out of memory on a xxx-byte allocation' error message in the logcat and that app would be immediately force closed.

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.

Full guide from stock Motorola Android to CyanogenMod 7 for Milestone
- by pontomedon (many thanks)
- it includes instructions on how to partition sdcard directly in OpenRecovery (to resize existing fat and create ext3)
New era with custom kernel via 2ndboot
Czechop (Milestone 2) managed to create a hack to the kernel usb initialization code that allows to keep BP working even after 2ndboot to custom kernel.
(See http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1908687 )
Thanks to Skrilax_CZ, the issue of low performance before the first device suspend has been resolved (L2 cache remained disabled before).
Note that a lot of work on the custom 2.6.32.60 kernel for Milestone has been done by Skrilax_CZ.
Main new features:
- Kernel Samepage Merging enabled
- ZRAM (compcache) can be enabled under CyanogenMod>Performance settings (will be active after reboot)
- additional swap file (or partition) can be used, if desired
Download:
CM7.2.4f: http://d-h.st/3fb
gapps: http://d-h.st/M05
(older CM builds: http://d-h.st/users/nadlabak/?fld_id=2535#files and https://github.com/nadlabak/android/downloads )
7.2.4f (2.3.7) 10.03.2013
- the libaudio that allows beepless call recording has been made optional, because some users reported BP panics on incoming calls
-- you can enable it under Device settings > Experimental libaudio (the change requires reboot)
-- the experimental libaudio received new binary patch that may (or may not) fix the BP panics (testing and confirmation from users is needed)
- several additional fixes done to the call recording code
- added CPU stats kernel module
- the moto RIL data connectivity workarounds introduced in 7.2.4c can be optionally disabled by ro.telephony.ril_class=motow3gplain in /system/build.prop (the default value that includes the workarounds is "motow3g")
- ringer audiofocus fix (by maniac103)
- omap3 hwrng is now exposed by kernel and used by userspace rngd to feed the entropy pool
7.2.4e (2.3.7) 30.12.2012
- call recording: fix recording for calls with asterisk in phone number
- fix typo in /system/etc/init.d/12swap script
- use better way to implement 'Disable Dock Observer' option (fix issue 637 - http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod4milestone/issues/detail?id=637 )
7.2.4d (2.3.7) 27.12.2012
- add built-in call recording option; no beeps every 10s during call recording any more
- 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
- fix /system/etc/init.d/12swap script
in case you're wondering why the new build is not uploaded to github as before, see https://github.com/blog/1302-goodbye-uploads
7.2.4c (2.3.7) 11.12.2012
- kernel: increased DAC fifo size to 16384 to reduce the chance of audio drop-outs
- 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 Baseband 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)
- build: in-line kernel building
- 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
7.2.4b (2.3.7) 09.11.2012
- kernel update: 10MB more of a free RAM (when the camera is not active)
-- allocate the LSC workaround memory only for the time while the ISP is actually in use
7.2.4a (2.3.7) 03.11.2012
- overclock: vsel entries restored to proofed values
- 2ndboot: updated pre-built binaries
-- a fix instead of a workaround for the GPU performance, proper ATAGs passing (thanks to Skrilax_CZ), etc.
- Music.apk: fixed music playback resume after a phone call (thanks to Danny Baumann)
7.2.4 (2.3.7) 23.10.2012
- the bad GPU performance on low CPU freq fixed via workaround during init (temporary insmod of stock pvr driver)
- updated kernel:
-- we're now on 2.6.32.60 (thanks to Skrilax_CZ)
-- new interactive governor backported from jellybean (with input-boost feature activated by touchscreen events)
-- camera helper buffer (allocated during boot) reduced by 6MB (thanks to alef78) > more free RAM available
-- optional 5 point multitouch fixed
-- fixed usb tethering (only in the 2nd uploaded 7.2.4 build - sorry for the confusion)
- bootinfo hacks could be removed thanks to new 2ndboot update by Skrilax_CZ
7.2.3 (2.3.7) 18.10.2012
download: https://github.com/nadlabak/android/downloads
- older builds are hopelessly obsolete from now on
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7.2.1 (2.3.7) 01.09.2012
- GPU drivers (SGX PVR) updated to 1.7 (latest Gingerbread release) from 1.5 (Froyo), despite the locked kernel
-- it allows less hacky surfacefliger/libui/egl code. Most notably, some workarounds had to be used for some apps to prevent occasional crashes on screen rotation before. Most prominently it can be seen in Gallery app. Before, the view had to be reset on each rotation (to make sure there won't be a crash), now it can work more naturally. Similar hack has had to be used for Google Maps as well...
- the proprietary gralloc.omap3.so patched to report 265 DPI to match the physical characteristics of the Milestone's display
- "stay away from zombie content providers" race condition fix - before, randomly, apps could get suddenly killed (after they attached to content provider that has been already killed, but its zombie process still there). This race caused apps to suddenly disappear e.g. after the search function has been initiated (reported e.g. in the case of Google Maps before). It should no longer happen after this release.
- a recent Google Maps update changed a part of the name of the always running background service from NetworkLocationService to GoogleLocationService. This change has been reflected in ActivityManagerService code, so the GMaps hack is working again.
- lots of fixes and also new features from upstream CyanogenMod is included, e.g. the increasing ring tone volume option.
7.2.0 (2.3.7) 16.06.2012
- 7.2.0 release
- the most notable 'last minute' fix is the elimination of the occasional 'mute' incoming call (while the two-way call recording ability is retained)
7.2.0 RC2 (2.3.7) 01.06.2012
- fixed initialization issues leading to bootloops or stalled boot if the ext partition mount took too long
- fixed lockscreen button behavior (notification power widget) where the lockscreen couldn't be enabled again after a while (thanks to maniac103)
- Toggle2G built from source; removed the need for root permissions
- usb: usbd built from source (thanks to Skrilax_CZ), disabled usb notification sound, usb tethering can be enabled directly from usb notification menu
- wlan: updated kernel drivers, disabled adhoc support in tiwlan.ini to prevent connection issues for some APs
- possible workaround for mute call issue (more feedback is needed to confirm or disprove its effectiveness) - Issue 752
- LatinIME is run in SystemUI process to spare additional 2MB of RAM
- added protection of Mms app if its service is doing a work. It shouldn't be necessary to keep the Mms app in RAM all the time to prevent lost sms anymore
- added possible recovery from DSP Bridge failures (its effectiveness needs to be confirmed) - Issue 672
- updated fonts (to fix special Romanian chars)
- install process wipes the dalvik-caches automatically
- etc.
7.2.0 RC1 (2.3.7) 23.03.2012
- various fixes under the hood
7.2.0 RC0 (2.3.7) 21.02.2012
just a quick fix build:
- make sure that services don't start before sd-ext has been mounted (if present)
- fix LED in charge only mode
7.2.0 RC0 (2.3.7) 17.02.2012
- wide screen video recording now captures in 848x480 resolution (was 720x400)
- two way call recording is now possible (recording has to start after the lines have been connected, not sooner)
- UMTS baseband (2100/900 vs. 2100/1900/850) can be selected in Device settings, the selection will persist even after future system updates (please do not use the baseband switching via Open Recovery anymore)
- fixed in-call and SIM PIN unlock screen layouts for landscape orientation, e.g. for phone in CarDock or DeskDock
- additional information about call can be indicated (e.g. that an incoming call has been forwarded, that the call is on hold on the remote side...)
- workaround for broken proximity sensors - camera button can be used to generate fake 'proximity far' event
- many other important fixes and improvements
note: CMWalpapers and Androidian and Cyanbread themes are not included anymore as more space in /system was needed for the libraries that enable the higher quality video recording. Themes and wallpapers can be installed e.g. from market separately.
7.1.5 (2.3.7) 21.01.2012
- ics animations (including rotation) backported to gingerbread
- renderer updated with rotation support - proper playback of videos with orientation hint
- adhoc disabled in tiwlan.ini (may help few people with wifi issues)
7.1.4 (2.3.7) 19.01.2012
- native wifi tethering finally works (proprietary 3G Mobile Hotspot removed, no dun apn dependency anymore)
- T9 dialer
- new 'Holo' ring lockscreen style
- increased net buffers for wifi, added values for hspa
- internal: switched to init built from source, wifi: switched from system/wlan/ti to hardware/ti/wlan, gps: gingerbread lib (from Defy GB firmware) is used instead of froyo lib + gpshim wrapper
- other things I can't remember now
notes:
1) 7.1.3 skipped to distinguish from the intermediate version used as base for the last HO!NO! Mod
2) If you encounter wifi issues after update:
reboot to recovery, open console and enterand reboot. You will have to re-configure your wifi networks after this.Code:rm -R /data/misc/wifi exit
Also make sure you have correct Wifi Regulatory domain selected.
Settings>Wireless & network>Wi-Fi settings>menu>Advanced>Regulatory domain.
Select appropriate value (11-US, 13-EU, 14-JP), then menu>Save
7.1.2 (2.3.7) 13.12.2011
- fixed recurring events in lockscreen calendar widget
- fixed possible egl surface creation failure (in PewPew game and possibly other apps); reworked egl config selection
- added optional revamped ring lockscreen style
- fixed bugreport service (left shift + del), report files are stored in /sdcard/bugreports/
- added /etc/powervr.ini for some PowerVR SGX tweaks (> less RAM used by surfaceflinger)
- internal storage changes:
-- dalvik.vm.dexopt-cache-only disabled by default ('no free space left in /cache' issue)
-- return back to 07app2ext moving also dalvik-cache to sd-ext
-- lib2ext script (and support for it in installd) newly included. It is not active by default. It can free huge amount of space in /data by transfer of applications' native libraries to sd-ext. Make sure you have enough free space (at least 100MB-200MB) in /sd-ext before you enable it. To activate it, run "su" and then "lib2ext 1" in terminal on phone. The libs will be moved during the next boot.

- data wipe/factory reset is highly recommended when you are upgrading from another rom/firmware (or having any issues )
- if you are in France, you should replace ro.product.brand=MOTO_RTEU with ro.product.brand=MOTO_RTFR in /system/build.prop (the ap_gain_france.bin will be used then)
OpenRecovery Mod (with CyanogenMod for Milestone specific customizations):
http://code.google.com/p/androidiani-openrecovery/30Update of CM7 with 2ndboot to custom kernel
http://d-h.st/ZDo
What's new:
- charge_only_mode now works
- BP panic is now handled correctly
- 2ndboot files are now stored in /system/etc/2ndboot
- kernel and modules updated
- upstream updates merged
- DSS tearing elimination turned off to increase fps rate
Ongoing issues:
- sluggishness after 2ndboot till the first suspend28CM7 test build with custom kernel
download: http://d-h.st/pDt
main features:
- Kernel Samepage Merging enabled
- ZRAM (compcache) can be enabled under CyanogenMod>Performance settings (will be active after reboot)
main issues:
- because of yet unknown reason, the device performance is limited until the phone first enters a deep sleep after 2ndboot,
so you should let the phone sleep first while the usb/power is not connected, after every boot.
Since the first successful suspend, the device performance is restored to normal till next reboot.
Please note that the kernel and other files are stored in /data/2ndboot, so you will need to reinstall the ROM if you do data wipe or it won't be able to boot.22
Both CM7 and CM10 for Milestone are under active development, though I've been focused only on CM10 lately.
I'd like to release new CM7 build before the end of August, if all goes well.
