oh. so basically what does a kernel do ?

after 2 days use of official froyo, stable, nice to use, lot more animation, 1 thing very bad... battery life like shit.... half day already gone...

im using TheFroyoMod 2.6.0 with gingerbread theme. fast and smooth

Upgraded to Froyo using the MSU over the weekend. Didn't notice the bugs a lot of people are mentioning about online. I did a hard reset before I updated.

There seems to be a slightly longer wait time for apps to launch, but it's nothing serious. The browser now seems way more functional and snappy in 2.2. I couldn't stand using it in 2.1.

wait till u try a symbian^3 browser u call it couldn't stand...

My milestone after updated 2.2 via MSU feel not so smooth & sluggish as compare to 2.1. But i can install more application now. Sometimes feel like wanna downgrade back to 2.1 Eclair as it is much faster & smoother?

somehow im sticking with APAC leak.. but havent random restarts thou..

Updated 2.2 through MSU, used for 1 days now. Battery seems to drain alot faster than 2.1.

One thing to note is the operating speed, maybe is faster than 2.1, but passively it feels otherwise. It's somehow slower and less consistance, from my findings it's due to the new animation system.

In 2.1, when you press an app icon from drawer or homescreen, it immediately starts the animation, which expand/zoom at the same time the application loads . If an app needs longer time to load, the screen will be zoomed in, blank with title bar, then maybe for few seconds the application will be loaded, which is fine, at least user will get somekind of feedback.

In new 2.2, when you do the same thing, the app will be loaded first, then only the animation will start(screen expend/zoom in), together with complete loaded app GUI. So, imagine this, when an app needs 5 seconds to load up, then after you pressed on an icon its like system just paused and unresponsive, until the app is ready to open... which i belive lead to slow load time and slugishness that many users felt...



Really Hope Moto will update at least one more time to addressing above issues...

guys, i am using official 2.2 froyo, y use dolphin browser doesn't load flash?

have you downloaded adobe flash from market? try adjust the dolphin browser setting & enable plugin for flash.

One more thing if I install apps my hp will come out with low internal memory. I do have sd card in it. 2gb

hmm, after read all the forum, i'm happy with my CM6 rather than upgrade to original Froyo.. anybody tried CM7? stable or not?

use the move app to sd option in "manage application"

The kernel is the "heart" of every operating system out there. It manages the hardware on your phone, making things such as the processor, buttons and display do their work.

The Milestone bootloader checks if the kernel is signed (verified) before the kernel is allowed to be loaded into the device's RAM. Hence, the kernel in Milestone cannot be modified as it will change its signature.

Android uses the Linux kernel, which is also open source software.

Using CM 6.1.2 now as the newer CM 7 doesn't multitask well.

Aii, still very sluggish. So no choice, root my phone & set the CPU to 1000mhz,now the phone is much faster & more responsive.

yeah. no worries. i used 1000Mhz also 60vsel. phone smooth and no random reboot.
no overheat issue. use already 3 month 1GHz no issue at all.
use with CM7 battery can stand 24hour.

Tried CM7, but my phone become sluggish and need to reboot after some time. Decided to try FroyoMOD and so far satisfied with the rom. Definitely better than leaked froyo rom that I tried before.

Without Bootloader RSA key, can't hack and decompile Motorola's Kernel, mod and fix any kernel bugs, even add any module in kernel becomes impossible.

i.e: Milestone RAM is not enough for heavy application, but there is other wayto solve this, that is using SWAP memory with SDCard. But the kernel lack of SWAP module, so no one can do anything on it, even if you have the ability to mod the kernel.

So there is someone in XDA raise a brut Bootlooder RSA key project.
Going to join but unable to link the project server.

No need to pull the Drawer anymore, won't always re-load those icons to CACHE that taking time.

But unfortunately, WiFi Tethering Hotspot will not working.

So it is still back to the Bootloader problem that restrict the mod.

Can inject the swap function on fast boot but can't do permanently on kernel bcoz of the boot loader locked...so everytime reboot u need to fast boot with Adb to enable swap...heheh..
