You should really check up on the previous post. AP sets are already being sold in several places.

As for Moto official, they WILL be releasing it. WHEN? Who knows. Many dates has passed and still no sign of Moto announcing it. Just grab an AP set if you can't wait for the indecisive MOTO. Much cheaper too.

Thanks for the info bro.
Will look it up at the garage sale area. smile.gif

Sorry to interrupt on you guys, but i have a quick question here.

Has anyone of you rooted you moto milestone? What ROM you guys use if you did root your milestone? Is there any guide on rooting moto milestone?

Any help will be appreciate. Thanks.

Been using this phone for about 2 weeks now, everything is fine. The only thing is the battery life is pitiful, i m almost charging it everyday or else i would have a phone with no batt in the middle of the day. The BP6X just could not last a day without charging.

So my question is, has anyone bought an extra battery with higher mAh? What brand and how much did you bought for the extra battery?

How often do you use it? Mainly use it for surfing the net?

Ya, i use it whenever i want to access the internet. Play some games when i m bored and watch some youtube.

QUOTE(boonhoong @ May 20 2010, 09:06 AM)
Just charge it every night before sleeping and pick it up the next morning...

Thats what i m doing now, i want to try and reduce the charge cycle and maybe a higher mAh capacity battery will do the job.

guys i m not sure whether this is a problem with the alarm clock of 2.1 but my MS just doesn't wake at the time i set the alarm to go off. Isn't that the phone should turn on by itself if we set a alarm and turn off the phone?

Just found out that the camera cannot capture under low light condition. The led flash is not working. Any way around it?

Anyone knows how to unroot a rooted ms?

from what i know is that a rooted phone cannot get OTA update, and must do it manually. If we flash a SBF straight to a rooted phone using RSD Lite, will the phone become unrooted again with the new software? I guess my question is, is it necessary to unroot the phone for software update?

it is common to find MS bugged with poor call quality

*after reading in some forums..

Is it because of the crystal talk thinggy? or ms just has poor Mic reception?
