OLDER :

v0.3
- Update SenseUI API to 1.21.405.2 (Latest official WWE)
(primarily Googletranslate/speech updates)

- GPS working

- Option to disable Wifi (to have SDCARD seen in SenseUI)
Enable SDCard notfication sounds in settings,
"Sound & Display"
and Wifi driver will not load at boot.

- optimized the init.rc to gain a few MegaBytes. (10MB gain)

- Only video recordings in LQ quality will playback in
senseUI , if that is a requirement, HQ recording still works

- Added "OpenRecovery" Rooting option


--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Older

V : 0.2


- Wifi LAN & GPRS/HSPA mobile DHCP services fixed
Wifi with DHCP works after second boot with SSID chosen.
So, enable and associate with accesspoint, and reboot.

- Wipe
You can you userdata/factory reset now
first time boot will make backup of "apps" folder to SDCard and
restore after Wipe has been done.
Backup file is: MotoSense_apps.tar (100MB)

- Logo change option (Default logo is now Droid!)
IF you dislike Droid bootanimatio and want the HTC logo back
place a "htc_logo" or "n1_logo" in the root of the sdcard
and it will show at next boot.

- Youtube/Video in general works now
Flixster/Youtube generated an error, which is fixed now.

- Videorecording (Motorola application)
It seems to work fine with video recording now.
Camera is still not functional (exits after picture shot)

- Removed most Motorola application caused the "loop" at boot.
do not change anything in the /data folder for apps,
or you might loose the "phone" button in the senseui.
order of the apps are important, and any change
can cause it not to work.

- removed Superuser.apk
Please install your own of your own choice.
causing trouble for some people.
please use included apps installer, for easy install.




Working
- Radio (Calls,GPRS,HSPA)
- USB
- Bluetooth
- Milestone bootup AC charging
- Wireless (Only static IP address.
DHCP is faulty at this stage)
- most apps from HTC and Motorola
(most untested)
- MilestoneOverClock v1.32
- SetCPU 1.54
- Sam2
- apps_installer
- MarketEnabler

Not Working
- PINCODE (will not be able to enter any pincode or boot normal)
- GPS (at least not seen it working)
- DHCP for wireless
- Camera

INSTALLATION:
Use ADB Recovery / Open Recovery to install this backmod.
Copy the included zip file to your nandroid directory
on your sdcard, and load recovery (nandroid-mobile.sh -r)
to install it.

NOTE:
This has only been tested with a EU milestone 2.36.0
i do not know if you can use it on older versions.
This release also includes menu european languages, as it
is based on WWE edition of HTC Desire, so HTC part is
translated.

Thanks to Zeusdroid image makers for the tiwlan_drv.ko
(which helped getting wifi to work in this image)


To other modders
- If you want to try and improve, you are welcome!!!
the ramdisk is located in /system/ramdisk.tar folder, it all starts here.
the ramdisk is opened by /system/bin/mot_boot_mode.
Based on Milestone SHOLS_U2_02.36.0 (EU edition) & HTC Desire (1.15.405.3 EU)
- if you put a file called "adbd_enable" in the root of your sdcard,
you can use adb from bootup with root, and access real root at bootup.
if "developer" is enabled, this will disable root access.


WARNING: Use this image at your own risk and i take no responsibility if
you brick your phone.. Image has been tested on a UK milestone and works fine if all files in ADB recovery image is used.


Note: wireless working seems to break you need to NOT reboot before you apply your static ip dns and gateway manually then enable wifi until you see the icon that says 'connected ' then you need to reboot before it can work , if you reboot before enabling wifi , it will NOT work again ( so you ll need to reflash . )
