Nice work...I'll try this today..

 

[gambiarraweb1]

Best ics, for MS2, surely, I use it since the first version!
and do not regret, I will continue using it, now only awaiting the final update of the camera, so we can use the recorder normally!

excuse my english!

 

[hometow1]

Keep working,MS2 need you.
I'll download and test today,thanks a lot!

 

[or.green]

GB rom means I won't be able to downgrade if I go with this?
I'm currently running CM7.

Thanks.

 

[sahilarora911]

Works well!! Thanks mate!!

 

[Ba._Ba.]

Is adobe flash player working in this rom?

 

[KinChungE]

I am glad to hear that somebody is still working for Milestone 2
However, will there be a china GB kernel version for it?
Also, will you create a changelog in the future (surely not now, as this is just the first release)

Thank you for your great work on our "legacy" device!

 

[harisit2005]

I tried it today...it works well...

 

[axl63800]

nice job
i don't see any problem for the moment
maybe the same problem as tezet's one : i loose signal when i changed emitters (but my operator have a roaming maybe it's the cause)
i will confirm this in a few days

ps sorry for my english

 

[Emacore]

Very nice work! Testing...
EDIT: this nightly is so awesome, camera and video recording working very nice, VK too!
Thank you! Coming soon someone review
EDIT2: For any newbie, first install CM9 from tezet and then this rom. For fix signal, install Milestone2ToolBox.apk and go to baseband switcher

[aznsniper]

Waiting for chinese kernel as well. Rather excited since there hasn't been much updates for the milestone 2 for a while. Thanks OP!

 

[sahilarora911]

All those who want Chinese kernel with this can follow these steps. These steps assume that you were previously on CM9 by Tezet with CH kernel. I have used these successfully.

1. Take a back up (complete or for just boot image) of your ROM.
2. Flash the CM9 Euro based zip available in the first post. Also flash google apps http://wiki.rootzwiki.com/Google_Apps.
3. Go to Back up and Restore->Advanced Restore->[Choose your back up based on date]->Restore boot.
4. Wipe cache and dalvik-cache.
5. Reboot.

You should have a bootable CM9 with CH kernel. (It crashes at first boot but after that it works fine)

for 1% battary mod and hw layout the files are here to download.

 

[lkthomas]

Good work guys, keep on going, I am watching this thread

by the way, how could I know if I have to flash EU or CH version?

Overclock

If you want overclock your device, here you go...

Flash this zip and done.

Configured to 300/22 600/32 900/44 1200/62 deepsleep 200MHz

You can change the configurations on bootmenu/CPU Settings and dont forget to save before exit
