Motorola MILESTONE - User Reviews

  • hey, 1, how can i restart my phone 2, also to install APPs becuz i got nothing my phone now

  • Android 9.0 Pie

  • If you're installing a custom ROM on this phone, what's the latest version of Android it would be able to run?

  • me too, along with security patch july 2017 lol

  • Hey, when will the update to Nougat [7.0] come out? can't wait!

  • my mobile touchscreen krek

  • I've this phone since 2010, but my Motorola Milestone is dead in 2012. I highly not recommend any Motorola-branded phone to anyone, since my phone is locked-bootloder and now is dead because of charging.

  • This phone is amazing. Running Cyanogenmod 9 with ease, and survives every time I let it fall. One time it fell 5 meter on concrete and the phone didn't crack at all. This phone is 100% amazing!!

  • it let me play my videos via web..

  • service backup in uttar pradesh (India)is very poor needs improvement for further sales

  • the mobile is very fiendly and the 5 MP camera is best ever

  • This can be a better phone if you can do the following: -Provide an option for the insertion of both a small battery (style) or a massive one (performance). Provide two back covers to accommodate both. You can market it using this also as a selling point--flexibility--style and/or endurance. I hope you stick to NOT having the curves and make it distinct from Samsung and that you keep the prices down, preferably at US$230 or lower (open line) so the international market can get to it. Basic requirements for it to sell: -no lags (good enough processor to play a 1080 video smoothly, good enough ram to handle this) -good enough screen resolution and video quality -good enough audio quality, reception -good wifi, bluetooth (the usual suspects) -less bloat -can be used as a mobile computing platform for documents (I think this is one reason the phone has a mechanical keyboard and this is what I will use it for when one is made in the future.) -a multitasking feature for apps Additional features for it to attract people: -xenon flash (a requirement for good photos) --the battery can take the load - a possible camera competitor for a lot of phones -please compare keyboard buttons with LG Mach LS860 on which is better for touch (I have not used any but am inclined to using buttons over touch screen.)

  • try to do a hard reset first turn off the phone by taking off the battery than by pressing x9keyboard button) + power on button than press volume down button than go on last 4th option of the boot screen by using right left keys of keyboard. it will be solved ;-)

  • I don`t know if you have noticed, but the milestone has a huge keyboard hidden under it + a big beautiful screen. not to mention the build quality, or the fact that this was one of the android pioneers. Your lg will never match that.

  • is it rooted? boot into recovery and reinstal the software.

  • It`s a good phone. Disatvantages: camera is very decent, but not great. Battery lasts one day(typical for android phones). Other than that, it`s solid. Try to instal cyanogenmod 7.2 on it. Of course, dependind on what unit you get, you might experience some software issues, but that depends on your luck. I had two of these, and want another.

  • can anyone tell me about the camera quality & sound quality in speaker & earphones of Motorola MILESTONE?????

  • I am motorola addict, I love my milestone like a companion. reliable and durable.

  • I do have this phone but having ANDROID OS 2.3.7 (gingerbread)

  • This phone is crap. 3 months later after its debut, Google launched the first Nexus with double the ram and android 2.3. Motorola took like 6 months to get it updated from 2.0 to 2.1 and another 6 months to 2.2, ridiculous. Bootloader locked (international version here), updates at snail pace, little ram made useless to go beyond 2.2, heavy as hell. The good thing, awesome display and good GPU. However, this last point, is rendered useless due the forced closes due low ram. Purchased at a bargain because a promotion, stayed with it for almost 3 years, so i know what i'm talking about. Now getting a S3.

  • Motorola.com

  • Truly a great phone

  • I've just ordered that phone... i'm new on androids phones, so, does someone have a good web page to download all for this phone? Love to put all kind of things and games... I saw that a N64 emulator can be installed on this device... if someone can help me out here i'll be thankfull... bye... PD: Sorry for my english

  • Every phone has 1 or 2 defects whether motorola or sony or nokia or samsung etc

  • I love this phone, a overall great performance, great audio and excellent texture and feel of the QWERTY keyboard. Only complain as anyone else: Battery life. This Phone is not made for Always On 3G Internet connection, nor even wifi, it won´t last you a day.

  • excellent , fantastic ,maevelrss phone i have ever been used

  • im a motorola user i offen use motorola phones now i like to use milestone

  • very good device and amazing one , i am happy with this phone

  • The battery on this phone is very bad. Infact it's the worst i've seen. Most batteries will last you throught day, probably 12-14 hours before they die. The Motorola Milestone battery has died out in, a record, 4 hrs for me. I must say though that this is a great phone interms of features but the battery life dissapoints me.

  • I use BP6X standard battery for so long and is okay, the power consumptions are good since I root it with MIUI.us-based ROM. Currently I have now 2.4.13 from MIUI.us. So I never worry bout the battery even on multitasking mode like playin musics while browsing. Thanks for this Milestone, a phone as tuff as stone :)

  • the camera is whach

  • yes you can have video call in skype, since it doesnt have front camera you have to use the camera at the back.

  • no,because it doesnt have a front cam

  • I personally find this fone great. Does every thing i wanted. The battery life can be quite bad, depending on what you do, general use in fine, but if you use it for Facebook or surfing the net and playing games, the battery dies qwickly.

  • wonderful battery time,really fast, if did have 720 I would never let it go

  • what is the official name given to it

  • Just get application app 2 SD free and move application sto SD and clear cach it will be ok

  • battery life is probably one of the best features of this phone, I have it about 2 years now and dropped it many times, but anyway, battery lasts 4-5 days with normal usage, few hours of talk, messing around with apps etc.

  • i upgrade my phone from 2.1 to 2.2 after doing that my phone is too slow..plzz can you tell how can i make it fast......

  • Can any1 tel hw to reboot milestone trw custom rom?

  • very nice phone. i upgrade mine to android 2.3.3 ( gingerbread) with cyanogen custom rom & it work perfectly . so better than eclair & froyo version .

  • this phone has been amazing, slow due to it being 2.0 but it has not been broken at all, dropped it on concrete, thrown it at walls and had it submerged in apple juice and still it goes strong, the keypad has bubbled though and now i have to use blu tack to hold down the keys which kills the backlighting function but very good phone :)

  • hi i got a gift this mobile.. its very nice but iam use only for sony ericsson, so give a feed back to tips for using this mobile,

  • They need to stop pumping these guys out so quickly, this does come off as a upgrade but its going to be out of date as soon as the Droid 5 comes out in 6 months. why cant manufacturers keep the time between phones at atleast 8 months? and then upgrade those every year? that would make so much more sense.

  • I have owned this phone since Nov. 09. The battery life does not hold well enough to use Twitter, Facebook and Browse websites for more than 3 hours. The keyboard I have is slightly bubbled and has ripped, from excessive use, and now I have to be careful not to move the keys around. However, this phone has been though a lot of drops, and has been dropped in water.

  • it's good but not satisfied

  • 4 monthes use , no problem at all upgrade to android 2.2 , fast nothing bad happen i wonder why with others lot of problems

  • is it a good piece....?

  • i want to purchase motorola milestone on a urgent basis where i can get it plz reply fast thanx

  • This mobile seemed to be the best until I tried Cowboy Hero (Wild West Sheriff)... it doesn't follow my commands. Absolutely disappointed :(

  • any phone that takes more than five minutes to save a new contact is rubbish. this one takes half an hour, and thats assuming no one calls you in the process.

  • I use this phone about 2 months.. and i had tried many of custom rom.. The best rom for this phone is froyomod 2.2.2.. it fast, low memory usage, and it got all control power in status bar. This phone know what i want :D

  • Dis mobile z nt atall gud.

  • I was looking for a new phone,

  • Milestone launched last year,I got this phone free from my operator(exclusive package). it was cool,but this phone is not global oriented set .only target european countries(language and Keyboard)not Asian . we need to download from Android market. things get worse when upgrade to 2.2 version . battery drain very fast in aday (8hr on standby)and sent to service center to check . they explained the upgrade 2.2 maybe too 'stress' on the CPU.i requested to revert back to 2.1 The customer service can not downgrade to 2.1. so , finally I decided to get rid of the phone .

  • I've got the same problem, have you found a solution yet?

  • why this phone always have troubles (like system crash)?? i already use this phone more than 1 year.. it was good at first couple months..and then it has some problem (mostly forced close).. any1 can help me please..? thanks

So this is suggestion to all my Friends please do not purchase Mobil from any store without knowing their service setup� At list not from MOTOROLA�

  • 1. Very Less Internal memory. 133 MB 2. All the new third party apps gets installed only in internal memory. 3. Quickly ran out of memory after instaling some 2 or 3 gud apps. 4. No FM . (Cant tune to local FMs)

  • question. why do we need froyo update? All the malfunction of my previous milestone may have been due to memory problems. After downloading a few applications such as: Google maps, skyfire, adobe reader etc. my memory is only 44 MB anything under this as operational memory will cause malfunction and logging of screen.

  • Go to Settings >> Accounts & Sync >> tap on u'r Hotmail A/c >> Select Remove A/c. OR Try Factory Data Reset

  • @Dev23 1.) Yes u can upgrde handset to 2.2 under warranty by visiting www.motorola.com/update 2.) Local FM Radio is not available. 3.) Jst Factory Data Reset the handset once after upgrade and download Advance Task Killer, u won;t face sluggishness issue.

  • I didn't find that in ma Milestone!!!!!!!!!! Cud u provide me the steps, how to do that????

  • that's good!!!

  • to share mp3 files , install adao file manager or bluetooth file transfer from market.. its free

  • Hi everyone, I don't know if I'm the only one who notice this. Many people who have upgraded to froyo are not happy with the performance after upgrading. I use two phones the Milestone and the E72, both of these have updates released but i feel no need to upgrade their os. they are perfectly fine the way they are... if read opinions you will only realise that upgrading the milestone will do you no good but slow down you phones performance. don't wish to have not upgraded... better be safe than sorry...

  • Could someone remind me which setting on our milestone allows us to have our name or other information appear on the Stan-by screen when the phone is in lock mode. Thanks in advance for your help. Had it on the previous phone now with the new phone cant find the setting.

  • Hi everyone! Can someone tell me what app should i install in order to send my mp3 music files on other phones via bluetooth? I found some but they need to be installed on both phones in order to work properly:-( By the way i use moto xt720 that also has android 2.1 on board

  • Switch it off buddy. You will have unlimited charged ;). Anyways congrats

  • well i got back a new brand Milestone. There were still some uncertainty about charging the phone, however i adjusted all m,y settings and the battery is fine. *I significantly reduce standby time *no vibration *no key sound *no beeps and music for phones tasks etc.

  • Hi I bought this phone last month so far I can say its awesome phone, I have few question if anybody can answer I will be pleased. 1. Can I update android version to 2.2 (I am in India), without violating its warranty. 2. Is there any application for radio . I want to access my local FM radio channel (I searched on market but radio application use Internet I don't wan it ). 3. Sometime it restart automatically ? does it happen with everyone ? Thanks

  • To update to froyo... it's from the motorola site so i'd have to say it's reliable. anyway, i upgraded to froyo... and it was AWESOME. at first it was really slow - especially the messages screen. i had over 8000 messages stored up. so if you're planning on upgrading to froyo, i recommend deleting texts BEFORE UPGRADING - just go to messages, settings and then set a limit of texts - ie maybe 100 or 50 then text that person once and it'll automatically delete the hundreds/thousands of texts stored on that person. it might take a while depending on how many however. once i deleted heaps of texts, i took advantage of froyo and moved my apps to my SD card - it won't do it for all your apps however, but it is still wonderful. it's actually like i got a new phone. it's quite fluid now. as long as you're using taskiller to keep ram free it's pretty top notch.

  • You need 2.2. (Froyo)

  • Pls someone help!!!I configured my hotmail email address to my milestone, but I want to delete it totally from the phone.Emails are deleted in the inbox @ trash,but old emails refresh which was deleted 20 at a time & it eats my megs and airtime.I want to know how to delete my email that was configured onto the phone, off it.

  • a little help users guide : moto droid / milestone

  • a little help 10 ways to boost your smartphones battery life

  • Hi guys I bought a milestone some two months ago. I really love the design and functions of the phone but i have two major problems. 1. my battery does not last long and i have to charge everyday (two times per day sometimes) 2. My phone keeps downloading stuff and i do not know what it is downloading. It went through 100megabytes of data in four days. I disabled the auto updates but still the problem persists. Please help.

  • I have the same problem with my milestone. if i make calls and get on the web then i have to charge it at least 2 times a day. I fully charged the battery when it was new.

  • Hey guys, I bought a brand new milestone but the battery lasts for a day ! I fully charged it yesterday morning and talked on the phone for maybe 10 minutes and download few applications for maybe 1 hour and this morning it went off !Is it normal or there is something wrong with the battery ?

  • Is it a new or used phone? Maybe the battery is close to dead. Or check if you have a draining application. On settings, check what uses your battery. My Milestone lasts 16-18 hours with moderate use, including gaming, wifi all day, some 3G, texting, , agenda, email, web surfing and phone calls.

  • my battery lasts for less than 1 hour even without using the phone. why?

  • thnx..

  • DO NOT UPGRADE to Froyo...there are 5 of us that upgraded to Froyo n all the phones slowed down, from opening the phonebook, messages etc. How can we downgrade back to Eclair???

  • Go for it....Trust me

  • Hi, Please can you let me know if this phone will support SAP?

  • hi guys, im getting an offer over the Milestone against my N95 8GB, i've never used a Motorola so far.. I'm quite intrigued abt this, n i really can't make a proper decision! :s my N95 8GB works perfectly fine, except for the battery, which needs to be replaced! any kind of help would be most appreciated! thnx

  • yes,it does. even it smoothly runs android v2.3.4 (Gingerbread) with 256 MB Ram.you can update to MIUI Rom (which is the best moto milestone rom) running android 2.3.4 > < also you can overclock the CPU to 1.2GHZ in a 2.2.1 ROM. >

  • Thank you for your reply. But actually I am not into high-end gaming much but blogging a lot. My question is does froyo run smoothly on it? any major hanging problem?

  • Very awesum phone, smooth with 2.1 but after u upgrade to 2.2 there is some kind of lag in the home screen can be fixed with 'adavnced task killer' and the built in task manager. The major flaw on this phone is it has no dedicated calling buttons like the answer key and the hang up key otherwise the phone is a very responsive and easy to operate phone!!

  • lol my familys getin dis fone for ma bday nxt month ma baby bro told me wn i was not supposed to know i reaserched on it it luks quite wel so far lts hope it is tht way cross my fingers

  • Milestone is good but you cannot play high-end graphics game which will be released in future because of less user availaible ram and now there will be no official updates from motorola. Since i am using it from 9 months i advice u to buy Samsung I9001 Galaxy S Plus or HTC Desire HD or HTC Sensation 4G or normal HTC Sensation.

  • i already upgraded to froyo.. do i need to install flash 10.1 or its already inserted in froyo?

  • Can the owner of Milestone comment upon speed of device with froyo? Does it lag too much? Is 256 MB of RAM sufficient for daily normal use? How many apps it can handle without any problem? Thanks in advance..

  • The weakest point is 'Battery life' for a day, even do not enough to run through whole day. rest everything is fine.

  • Hi, After update to 2.2.1 and overclocking...is there any over heating or unstability issue?

  • Do not fear, As Dr. Moto is here! This maybe an awkward solution, but the slide out button has 2 return key. Hope this works...

  • bro..it is equipped with flash if u upgrade it to 2.2(froyo)..adobe flash 10.1

  • Hi everyone, I've been using the milestone since september last year. The problem I have is my ''go back'' button does not respond. I don't know what to do. Can anyone please help me, I love my phone. I don't want to get get rid of so soon.

  • Can anyone tell me if there is a way to change the hold button position which lies on the left hand upper corner of the screen during the call to anywhere in the middle or bottom of the screen. Its really irritating that every time while on the call it goes to hold by the touch of my chin.

  • I bought my motorola milestone as a bit of a risk, but since I've had it; I've been unquestionably pleased with it, one minor problem would be it has a nasty tendancy to restart itself fairly frequently, by 'fairly frequently' I mean you can have good days, or bad days, i.e. one day the phone won't restart, the next it may do it twice, apart from this the phone overall has been fantastic! I'm even writing this comment on it now. One other minor issue some may have a problem with is it still does not support flash, these two cons added to the equation, I'd give it a 4 1/2 out of 5 stars

  • @ kevin: Dude, you should check whether it's not just a problem of humidity. I had problems with my touchscreen being unresponsive or going crazy at the beginning until I read and realized it was my own sweat (sorry guys) which disturbing the screen. Now during hot weather when I put my phone in my pocket I take care to turn my screen outwards, not to put it against my thigh...

  • Mine hhappens that way only when the screen is a little wet, i bring my phone to the shower. If your screen is not wet it could be faulty

  • mine got touchscreen problem..to screen keep tapping itself...it is a ghost touchscreenn... please help me how to fix it..i know it is not a OS prob..

  • this is a gr8 device, but (1)Why does Camcorder cause phone to freeze and (2) Some photos can by bluetooth to computer and some does not - do i miss sumthing???

  • is fine for me to update my fb n android market?

  • soz but you most likely cant.

  • This is what got my Milestone working very well with 2.2.1 with the odd slow down, which was normal for it on the odd occasion anyway. Do a backup (with Nandroid or something like Titanium Backup for root, , which Titanium is available on the market) before you try this as you will need this to get all the info back to your phone. I use Titanium backup for root, and it stores the info on your sd card. I don't know how to back up your phone without root, sorry. After this, do a hard reset and dalvik cache wipe (which from what I have read is a full phone cache wipe, all cache info will be wiped, not just for particular apps and such) from the recovery menu. To get to the recovery menu some people turn the phone off, then hold down (and keep holding down) the x button while powering it back on, or hold (and keep holding down) the camera button while powering it back on. This is supposed to get you to the "triangle with exclamation point in the middle" screen. I didn't have success for some reason with either of these methods, getting frozen at the triangle with exclamation point screen (of which I just pulled the battery then it rebooted back to normal) so I used an easier method with the Rom Manager app from the market which has an option to get to the recovery menu built into the app. Both the hard (factory) reset and dalvik cache wipe are in this recovery menu (it just says "wipe cache", but this wipes the dalvik cache and from what I have read). You will have to use your slide out keyboards directional pad to navigate this menu, and use the middle of the directional pad to click on the options. I did the wipe cache first, then the hard (factory) reset. After I let the phone do this. I reboot it and played with it for a bit before I re-installed the titanium backup and it felt really zippy. After this, I had to go to the market to get titanium backup (as it was wiped from my phone) and re-install it. Went into the app and and started the re-install procedure. I would also recommend installing the apps2sd app from the market before you start restoring your info as it should install the apps from your backup automatically to your sd instead of you having to go into your manage applications area of your phone and move it manually every time, which I had to do. After all this, your phone should be running faster than before as I know mine did. I would also suggest not using any kind of app killer or battery manager. I was using Android Booster and Advanced Task Killer after I did all this and the phone was being pretty buggy. After I deleted these apps the phone has been WAY more stable, and battery life has not changed to my knowledge. I am also using Milestone Overclock as 1ghz with 59 vsel which helps with the performance A LOT!!! Hope this helps.

  • go to xda and search for it xD

  • Hi all, so i upgraded to 2.2.1...it was not worth the wait n hype for FROYO...the big question is...how do i down grade back to eclair? Thanks guys :)

  • I love the Motorola Milestone, I just wish that it has more ram. The other thing is the keyboard, the thing feels loose after awhile.

  • Please send me some guidelines, as to how to get this done.my email is: [email protected]. I am truly suffering with esclair.If i get a technician to change my rom and install 2.2 on it unofficially will it work just as good as ur; being that the update is not in Jamaica or the Caribbean as yet

  • In which country did you recieved this update and are u prompted with the overlock option in the installation of the 2.2

  • I love my milestone again! I loved it when it came out, then I hated it. Now with the 2.2.1 update and I overlock it it been amazing! Im killing brand new phones with its speed. super happy! Glad I didn't give up on it ;)

  • Well said!

  • Make sure you DISABLE the Cyanogenmod option that allows all apps to be moved to the SD card. When apps that aren't designed to be moved are moved by force it causes many crashes.

  • Cyanogenmod always make my milestone hang, I switched to an aosp rom...

  • thank you

  • looks like it **** my mistake, that is for the droid. this is the cyanogenmod for milestone, even though it is unnofficial

  • i want radio application on this phone ?

  • CyanogenMod7 for Milestone? is possible?

  • Q:Is it worth to update to froyo? A:Well the phone doesnt get fast enough like for you to notice a change, so if you wanna have Wi-fi hotspot, apps2sd and slow flash support (unless overclocking) try froyo else stay at eclair

  • For all those who keep whining about this problem and that problem go get an iPhone. This is a REAL phone and as such you have to treat it like one. I've had this phone over 6 months now and haven't experienced half of the problems i've seen posted here. My solution get some know-how, root the phone and mod the heck out of it. ktnxbai

  • Pathetic. Re-boots itself many times, hangs during calls, battery life doesn't last more than 3 hours, if you use all the functionalities provided, the battery lasts for one hour. Terrible camera. Email client is not push and the email clients available in android market are buggy. I am now using it as a navigator ( the motonav) provided along with it. Avoid.

  • My milestone is just going on and off like every 15 seconds. I hope this is just a manufacture defect on this piece of device and not the whole stock. My phone have never been dropped. Let me know if anyone experiencing this problem. I had it now for 3 and a half months.

  • now i got the update this phone is amazing. i bought it 6 month back and touch is very good and its really durable handset.Buy it from axiom telecom select city walk saket bcz they provide 1 year extra warranty and 1 year theft accidental damage insurance and pick and drop services for delhi and NCR..the staff is really good...i bought from there..

  • Hi guys...is it worth it to update to Froyo?

  • I have this with official 2.2.1 ,then I installed androot app To use milestone overclock 1.2ghz(without rooting via custom rom) and now I'm satisfied with it, as I compare to my bro HTCdesire . Just don't forget to install advance task manager and 'autokiller'named app. And don't forget to kill or close app that you are not using to enjoy .because, on low ram but nice having powerVR graphics.

  • In India,2.2 Froyo is available online from Motorola's web-site,you jst need to login on www.motorola.com/update, select the country to India>>>select handset to Milestone>>>Download the software>>>connect your handset to PC(after downloading the software) and follow the on-screen instruction's. Note:u mst have Internet connection when upgrading the Android version....

  • I wish there was someone who'd buy my Milestone or trade it off...i want a bigger display...i had it updated to 2.2. and rooted it.The way I see it,its not much of a bad phone if you put aside the price.

  • will sumone temme hoe to update my milestone to 2.2 from 2.1....plzzzzzzzzz guys im very exited about the 2.2 update ........,hopefully i get ma dreams come true........luv u alll......

  • The compromised phone. The bad phone. The phone doest give customer satisfied. Its the motorola milestone. The phone "with" compromised yet expensive. lap sap. noob motorola love the design, hate the perfomance hate the maker. better giv nokia or sony this design. motorola too noob to do this stuff. low speed mobile browsing. video with vga quality. camera auto focus made badly by motorola. K750 camera is better, dont have to fight se X10. try to kill its little brothe and sister first. K750,K800,W800

  • Hey guys..can any1 suggest me hw to improve my milestone,, battery back up,, please

  • Well the 2.2 update was running nicely after a full reset, was quick and responsive. Then I went to my nephews birthday party this weekend and realised the video camera no longer focuses at all! The camera does focus on a soft press, but the quality seems to have deteriorated over what I got with 2.1. If you value the video camera, stay away from 2.2. They make us wait a year then release something that is a step backwards. I'm so glad I only have 4 months left on my contract, I wont be buying a Motorola again.

  • please dont buy this stupid phone motofail cant even update it properly, wait for 1 year for the update and now it kills the phone

  • hi , thank anyway . I wrote in to check and chinese input method is incompatible with android 2.2 . I think Motorola android phone are USA and europe langauges oriented only . I think we Asian better purchase asian brand like HTC , LG and samsung android phone and Iphone4 .

  • do rooting really helps on bases of speed of the phone. my milestone 2.2 update is slower then 2.1. i really want some solution to for that...please help anyone.

  • Can i make video call by this phone ? how will I do for video calling?

  • milestone is a rubbish phone(compared to other android handsets),im getting my motorola Defy today,this thing is laggy n unresponsive,sumtimes the screen will operate itself..it seriously has a mind of its own.iv tried updating to froyo but here in South Africa we not getting the update..the cheaper Defy is faster n has alot less issues,wont even hand this phone down to my little sister,il throw the damn thing away..

  • You can Root milestone with 2 option: 1) android 2.1 use "Universal Androot" think can download from Market 2) android 2.2.1 use "Super One Click" search from the web After root, you can: 1) delete system app 2) overclock cpu speed 3) remove sms limit (android default; 60 sms send per hour) 4) can install many useful app that only support root device

  • Thanks will give a try

  • Thanks for your reply. Now I can upgrade Froy to my phone.

  • How u deleted those?????? Try to add calendar's as a widget,it will show u calendar over there and then u can add those as a widget and if it does not,try with Factory Data Reset,then.

  • No, u need not to remove Memory card,it won't affect SD card.....

  • Maybe you can try going down to the customer service centre to do a Chinese input software update and Moto input method. The address is at The Cathay, #04-14/15/16, 2 Handy Road, Singapore 229223 (Exit at Dhoby Ghaut MRT station) Open from 11am to 8pm daily.

  • Please HELP! I accidentally delete the "default calendar & calendar provider", where can i download & install it back? someone help! Thanks!

  • Could you tell me, should I take out memory card before upgrading to Froyo. Thanks

  • Guys,There is no sluggishness and all,the updated OS is just fine and very good,The only thing one needs to do after the update is "Master Reset" your cellphone and re-download all the apps that u use,then only you will be able to use the cellphone to the fullest.....Ah,make sure you backup all the necessary data before master reset...

  • Motorola should come out with an update now to over come this problem of slowing down the system after the froyo 2.2 update.

  • I update 2.2 and my moto input method can not use. and also multitouch keyboard, input languages no chinese dictionary available . mostly dictionary avalable are europe . I update under singapore .

  • Where can you buy an unlocked 850mhz 3g version?

  • Web site for Milestone user to upgrade to froyo, This web for Asia Pacific region

  • Not too sure the update is a good idea. THe phone becomes 25% slower than eariler and the 4 buttons on the touch screen menu dont work that well to touch. The only good thing is the 3G hotspot software and the tranfer of software to SD card. THe message keyboard has changed (I seriously prefer the previous layout) 1 addition is the voice recognition. You can talk the message instead of typing. Not sure how usefull this would be. THe voice recognition does work pretty well. Apart from 3G and SD card option, this update is not recommended as it slows down the phone.

  • hi all....just got updated to froyo on milestone...works great...the wifi hotspot and other feaatures r fine...benefits u heard from many...now the actual thing is that system gets slow at times...main problem is with camera capabilities which were gud enough in eclair but now with froyo update I had seen that camera and camcorder are much below the acceptable level...the clearity of 5 megapixel now seems to be of a camera less than 0.5 megapixel....sum up I experienced slow operation of apps at some times...mobile get heated up...and camera clearity is lost for now till motorola come up with update for the same...motorola people pls take not n do something to address the issues with froyo....

  • Hi Sandy Can you tel us more after connecting to computer, where do you get upgrade froy 2.2. Last time I upgarde 2.1 over OTA Thanks

  • So apparently everyones got 2.2. Im in South Africa and still OTA and PC suite says no update. Is there any other way of downloading the 2.2 ROM from some site or somewhere?? HELP!!!

  • U need to connect it to the PC and update it....I did just now :)....Yes,it also supports flash 10.1.the best part is the touchscreen is much more responsive compared to 2.1 and display has become,bit more crispier...these are the other two bonuses apart from the features mentioned under Froyo features,If ppl are sayin it Lags,but I dont see any such thing frequently,but it tends to heat alot copared to 2.1

  • The update is not avail OTA. Have to download from motorola website.

  • UPGRADED OFFICIAL 2.2. WORKS great!!! BUT NO thetering zzzz not much changes made. why the hack need a year to make??

  • guys, is froyo out for droid ??? if yea, pls post a link from where it can be downloaded

  • How come i can't find the update? it is saying that there is no update for my milestone - i thought it is already available?

  • I dont see OTA available in India....In which country do you reside?Did you upate it?howz the performance after the update?

  • now official froyo available.

  • Is this superoneclick has the tendency to brick my phone? I have read your opinion and highly valued it but then, considering that I am from the Philippines and there is no longer a moto store or service center here, plus the fact that I really love my phone. Will the superoneclick work for me or is it area specific :D thanks

  • droid user tnx for the instrucitons for "SuperOneClick". now i have finally root and then overclocked my milestone :D

  • Wow, it let me post without registering. Ok, let me add more info to my previous (and rude) post: Android 2.2 (froyo) will slow down your droid significantly. Pictures will now take ages to render, key touches will be annoyingly delayed, and in general it will feel much more sluggish as it wastes cycle processing the extra useless code. If that wasn't enough of a user annoyance, it also adds extra 'features' to try to make it more enterprise ready but in reality just makes it harder to do things (like a screen lock is now required if you use exchange for mail) Much like windows service packs, this upgrade does nothing for the actual end user who is shelling out money. It merely fixes background code mistakes and heads off potential lawsuits to google, at the owner's expense. Anyone with an Android phone should IMMEDIATELY root it to benefit from all the great (ie Google/Verizon/ATT not getting a dime) apps available out there like Root explorer, adblocker, and Titanium backup. Once rooted you can turn off all the background crap Google puts on there to track your habits and force sell you the Gmail/Facebook/amazon lifestyle. To root a 2.2 Froyo Droid for free: 1. Find a computer and install "SuperOneClick" 2. Put your droid in debug mode (apps>dev>debug) 3. Run SuperOneClick on computer to enable user access to root account 4. Reboot Droid Now you have a complete Linux laptop instead of a handheld billboard for Google. Turn off those always on advertising services, re-enable your ability to tether, and just generally get what you paid $500 for!

  • froyo adds crap you don't need, slows it down, and just generally sucks. Don't upgrade if you can help it

  • Ros,Just contacted the motorola service center of India,he told that it would be available within next 3 to 4 ddays,enquired if its OTA update,he answered,Come to service center,will update it to 2.2,he is not sure about the OTA,but will be available in service center within 3 to 4 days...keeping my fingers crossed.....

  • it is a little bit less stable... but just a little bit... i mean, some app may crash, for some short time, but rarely... original rom is always better, but 2.2 has some better options... e.g. app2SD, adobe flash etc. i suggest that you try out friyi... it wont hurt. ;)

  • its a known issue. the glass is no "real" gotilla glass. 3-4 weeks and your phone looks like ist one year old ... call motorola customer support for help.

  • where is official froyo moto. now dead line is going. untrust company. tataa

  • Will it be a good idea to buy this phone now?

  • milestone upgrade was not available when i called the moto service centre today in bangalore. can anybody detail me about how to upgrade to 2.2 at home please.

  • if u overclock it, can it play hd videos?

  • i love my phone

  • dude, this is a scratch resistant not scratch proof glass.. try buying a bullet proof one you might like it

  • Guyz who have updated their handsets to 2.2froyo.. Please tell me what's new in 2.2 & your experience of using after the update & before the update & what's new after the update.... Please share you comments & let others know also...

  • My milestone is 3 weeks old and already has a scratch on the screen. I thought gorilla glass is scratch resistant. The salesman sratched the screen with a key and showed me. How come the scratch has come? Is it a defective piece?

  • Hey Guyzzzzz.....Congrat's Milestone's upgraded version to 2.2 is now launched in India, go grab it guyz, as I did from nearest service centre. and the phone its good i have nere seen this kind off any were in india i got ?

  • Visit www.motorola.com Log on to Support Page--Mobile Phones--Service My product. And select the location as u need for Service centre.

  • Hello everyone,dont w8 for motorolas update if just updated my milestone into gingerbread and its GREAT!

  • rubbish phone. No support from the company at all!! Phone just kept hanging til i had to replaced the motherboard of the phone. THe best part is it still hangs like nobody's business. Moto really buck up and provide better support for their phone users

  • I have this phone now one year, No scratch. Your phone may get scrath by very hard and sharp metal.Scarth resistance does not mean it will never scrath. So do not put phone in pocke that you carry keys or other sharp metal

  • exactly. Scratch resistant not scratch proof. you will still get scratches on the screen.

  • where can you download the froyo installer? and is this version of froyo the same with the original froyo? I mean do I have to worry about bugs? thanks

  • You will never get straight answer from Moto.

  • moto tell something about froyo on milestone. how long u are waiting us. tell us wheather froyo comes or not. if come tell us when it come. then we can decide our next phone.

  • Is that handset is faster than Iphone 3G

  • i really love my milestone!! great for surfing and games!

  • Anybody know the location and contact no. of Service center in Chennai? Need to update to 2.2. Also my milestone is 5 days old and there is already a sratch on it. I thought this is sratch resistant.

  • Just an Awesome Phone. with Awesome Features and Specs.. After all it was my dream phone form very Beginning.. :D But.. Has some issues updating to Froyo.. has a complicated Boot Loader and is not easily upgradable compared to Nexus and HTC Phones.. Plus.. Motorola Doesnt provide time to time support and update releases.. :(

  • Had one for three days and still can't answer an incoming call one handed. The swipe to answer system is totally impossible. Maybe it is just this particular handset- the first three I had were faulty (three different causes)and were replaced. This one will be returned and I will NOT be trying again. Perhaps it should be called Millstone....

  • i cant install any software in sdcard. software install in phone memory. plz give me solution

  • Friends I am not a blackberry hater because I have one for the free message, got it on a deal. What is a standard blackberry like. It is made up of a few applications that have been significantly reduced and so specific that takes away the fun. Of multi-tasking; applications such as facebook chat etc. With displays mostly of 2.4 to 2.6 u can hardly few web pages in full without having eye problems. White the lack of touch interface zoom options are limited and poor. Vedio card poor cannot play good quality vedios with sharpness. Lack of ability to customize. Struggle to download a proper browser such as skyfire. Why buy a blackberry for 500 us when u can have a proper phone

  • I must say that this phone is just amazing. The web browsing and quality of display is simple second to none. I don't now why so much persons buying backberry just to send text messages. I see my milestone as a mini labtop because that's what it is: a 3.7 inch display with 400,000 pixels and mullti touch capacitive display. 256 mb ram, sufficient, a 600 mega hertz processor with a graphics card. The software that allows me to customise my screen is just amazing; there is never a dull moment with milestone. When we get flash 10.1 we will be on top of the high end smart phone world. Just for viewers blackberry torch the best of the bllackberry is still not a high end phone and their prize is rediculous

  • hey, please be sure to knowing issue on Froyo 2.2. there is Wifi & Call Quality Issue there. so, better to you if u have some troubleshooting ready for the trouble. sorry my english!

  • I am a milestone user.....my mobile has android 2.1.....can I update the android version to 2.2 .......plz say how to update it and the web link from where I can update it from...

  • I am a milestone user.....my mobile has android 2.1.....can I update the android version to 2.2 .......plz say how to update it and the web link from where I can update it from...

  • sandy can you tell how to install froyo.thanks for ur corporation. now I already download the file.

  • now I have froyo file.but I can't install it.can any body tell how to install anandroid file.

  • I was wondering what's the amount of ROM that the milestone A853 carries? Please help its important.

  • Get froyo first then download yahoo messenger and yahoo vedio adds on them use phone just like ur labtop

  • When froyo is release will it be sent to our market so it Can be Downloaded securely?

  • the above is the link to download the froyo 2.2

  • sandy, pls post the link for the froyo. I can't wait.

  • Never mind,got the link to downloa the nandroid from xda for froyo asia pacific and heard that moto is officially lauching Froyo on 1st feb....maybe a rumour,moto ppl now have the expertise in spreading rumours :)

  • Provide me the link in xda for asia pacific....no more patience to wait for official froyo by moto

  • froyo...? come to xda... leak version for brazil and asia pasific ready to use.... :) or wait final official if you hv more patience....

  • Hi Ros Thanks for your reply. I have tried many times sending files (photos, songs) to Samsung mobile. I have checked the discoverable option in the Bluetooth settings. But it always fails. Maybe I should try downloading an application in android market.

  • I dont think video calling is possible...and u can download the market app from the below link

  • I am using a milestone mobile I wanna know how can I make a video call......please guys.......help me....and one more thing how can I download market software.......reply sooooooooooon guys.....

  • Hi.....am also using milestone if you want to send or receive a file you need to have astro file manager and astro bluetooth.....astro is available in market(apps for android)

  • Froyo will come t milestone,but the question is WHEN?

  • Apart from Ros`s reply,one more thing u must do is chk mark the bluetooth to discoverable under bluetooth settings

  • mark, bluetooth works perfectly on milestone. u can send any file. but you have to comfirm from notification bar.or u can use apps like bluetooth file transfer. u can get it from market.its totally free.nice app.hope u will fix bt broblem.

  • I think Motorola has droped the idea to update Milestone to froyo.

  • Why is the Bluetooth of Motorola Milestone not working; it cannot send file to another phone. Sometimes, it cannot also receive files. This is the major problem for this phone that I could not configure. I need your help. Thank you.

  • Ros if you search over the internet or the xda developers forum you will find a pdf that "leaked" (as said) from motorola.In it has all the changes froyo will have.But the question is.When it will be releashed? Personally i don't mind getting android 2.3 but i need a working e-mail client (2.1 client sucks) and the app2sd.

  • You need two apps for this,one is "Bluetooth file transfe" and the other one is app explorer like "ASTRO"

  • moto has announced early q1 2011.now this is early q1 2011. I never trust moto.they are joking us. low budget phones from htc also update froyo now.this high end phone sucks. still eclair.tata moto

  • how to send songs to any other mobile

  • Yes, froyo will solve your problem. But the next question is where are you going to get froyo for the milestone?

  • Moto has announced q1 2011 for froyo.....30 days gone,60 remaining,I only hope that moto will stick with the dates,My few friends,who brought low budget android phones from samsung..are already running froyo and this is something that Moto should be ashamed of....and the equivalent handset moto droid gets froyo,mean that milestone is capable enough.It is moto`s mistake to lock the bootloader of milestone and we owner`s gr8est mistake to buy this handset...

  • Wake up Motorola and release the update. We are lagging behind. We are having one of the best cell phone around. But there is no update. When they will release the update? I don't think our Milestone supports froyo, if it supports then Motorola would have released it at a very early stage.

  • I support u. this phone. Really good... nice build.. sensitive touch screen but still lose to iphone 4 nice qwerty keyboard. but. haizzz the service support, the device internal system haizzz i love it becos its like a mini computer. hate it because it cant do something other common phone do

  • Motorola Milestone is so cool. Android 2.2 Froyo come here! Vrap!Hurry! Are phones ho have Froyo and has not Milestone?! (854x480,256 mb ram,5 mpx. camera,600 mhz processor,qwerty keypad) What more you want android manufacturers?! Hurry i wont Froyo,and then Android 2.3 Gingerbread.

  • i love this phone,hope i'm getting one on my birthday.The bad thing is that there's no froyo.

  • then go for milestone 2. It has all the things u wanted. It still may have something missing, but it is a great upgrade to milestone.

  • where is froyo?I can't wait.hurrrrrry up moto.

  • My Verdict:Am very happy with the phone,I was looking for an android phone with keypad and this was the obivious choice,but now the things are different,with android OS,so I would suggest you to get atleast 1ghz processor with better RAM,so that the future upgrades are possible. Am not aganist Milestone,but looking at the way android is developing,I would go with better processor and RAM to make my phone future proofing

  • Hi thank u and other q is that i cant use 16or 32 gb sd card without some software and what is ur verdict about this phone

  • Here is a link to download a great version of android 2.2 Froyo for the milestone if ppl cant wait.

  • press contact/contact name/menu key/share. then??? i want share via sms please???? i got share contacts via barcode scanner,gmail and qr droid. where is message????? noob and dangerous phone. high radiation

  • WTF!!!! MOTOROLA WANT TO KILL USER ARRRRR????? WTF!!! 20 cell phones with highest radiation levels (photos) OI 2.2 REDUCE THE RADIATION LAH!!!! SAVE BATTERY!!!! sien you noob

  • press contact/contact name/menu key/ then? my milestone didnt show any share. it shows "search, new contact, display option, accounts, import/ export import and export only to memory card and to sim card

  • u can do it, press contact/contact name/menu key/share...that's all.

  • htc desire hd is the best. can last more than 30 hours,becos my 3 of my friend got it. understandable can last 48 hours cos the screen very big!!!! "lapsap" motorola, nice phone, but "lapsap" battery then just now i only know something. WTF??? can send 1 of my contact number to another contact like the way i can do on nokia and sony ericsson??? lapsap!

  • motorola engineers the lesson is dont simply advertise "flash ready" and check properly the battery make sure it can last 24 hours! can giv me steps how to let it standby more than 100 hours? well ur specs wrote there more than 300 hours!!!

  • come on motorola hurry up and release 2.2 why its taking so long? does anyone has any idea what date it will come out?

  • The best phone is the htc desire hd!!! Its like a gsm version of the htc evo!!!

  • Actually sony is working on a froyo update for the x10!!! They'll get it sometime this year, hopefully we get our update before them!!!

  • I think Samsung galaxy S is the best.. But as Google nexus S's price is closer to SGS i recommend you to get Nexus S.. The Superphone..... Google Rocks

  • what is the best among below 4?? - Motorola Milestone - HTC Desire - HTC Desire HD - Samsung Galaxy S

  • what is the best amont below 4??

  • Users of X10 paid near US$700 in April and stuck with 1.6 for most of 2010...and they will NEVER get 2.2. Milestone users paid around US$600 in Dec 2009 and already enjoyed 2.0+2.1 throughout most of 2010, and will get 2.2 within Q1.

  • Motorola has not issued the 2.2 version. The softeware available now from third party. I am also waiting for official upgrade from Mototroka. It is delayed. that made lot of people upset

  • I bought my phone in Feb last year and RECEIVED the following updates: 2.0.1 (in addition to the original 2.0) 2.1 2.1 "update" (to fix some more bugs) Just read 2.2 users are having problems, either with app2SD or messages not being sent properly. I'd rather stick with whatever works rather than try every new that's unproven to work...

  • Motorola being company & their products are the worst company & products of the century. They are not able to release a small update of Froyo for Milestone, what they will do in future.. Shame motorola, just see Dell, LG & samsung, they have released the update so quickly. But this company Motorola is a loser company & their products are hopless worst garbage products...

  • well you also have a good phone lor... mine max can last 12-13 hours (untouched) nia T,T I got 2 original batteries with me. the new battery also giv me 13 hours

  • My max time it stayed on was 18 hrs!!! I left it on standby for a while,played music,browsed quite a lot..... well I guess the battery life is okay, its good enough to last while your @ work or school!!!! And I'm tired of waiting for our froyo update!!! I wanna be able to transfer my apps to my sd card to save space and be able to download more apps without worrying about space!!!

  • you got it from the bas and didnt return to the owner?? you kept it??? the sim card return to the owner??? ??? i shall assume you stole it! Mother Bitch FxxK you!!!!!! o0o =,= o0o

  • yeah bro! motorola new 2.2 come out please!!!!!! the battery life is getting on my nerve!!!!!

  • I am using advance task killer (crazy mode) lah. thats the reason battery improved by 4 hours. turn off auto sync improved by 4 hours now it last 12-13 hours MAX I really not satisfied with others having battery life more than 24 hours you know? I didnt use much, didnt play games, just use it for sms and few (1~4) short calls

  • lol this phone is cool,can u believe ive been wanting a phone forever and i end up finding this on a bus! i came home & looked up all droids & what do you know, its a milestone :)

  • Yeah i agree with you, they should atleast give out an exact date for the update for each region... i asked my cellphone provider if they knew when we would get the update, they told me as of now, there is none for us yet!!! Geez why is it so hard to give us our froyo update, they better explain why it took forever!!!

  • Guys we are q1 of 2011 and still no dates revealed for the Froyo update,am worried now....Though I knw we still have around 85days for the quater to over still...I was expecting atleast a date for the roll out of the update,Moto we are still waiting...

  • Yes it should be blinking when you have any notification such as a message,email,missed call!!! I tried calling my phone and miss the call and my green led light was blinking!!!

  • Well i downloaded both advanced task killer & advanced task manager, and it helps my battery life!!! Try it out and on advanced task manager on the settings enable autokill!!! I always kill all running apps except the task killer & manager!!!

  • For all the milestone owners,or for they that are reading this message.My milestone's green led flashes only I have a new message.Should it also flash when having a missed call too?Coz mine it doesn't

  • You also cant believe it aye? I really pissed off you know? I need help. I regret buying such phone, should have go for some others. this phone is not cheap, I choose it becos of the design not the function

  • no sense? nvm I have a solid prove right on my hand and givs me some trouble (made few short calls, battery last 9 hours). I went to Starhub service centre and they says upcoming Android 2.2 can help solve this problem. but if it dont I really pissed off liao.

  • N8 is NOT a PHONE when being compared with Milestone, as it does NOT have Crystal Talk to offer the best voice quality in the industry like Milestone.

  • thats weird!!! you said that you turned off everything and don't even touch your phone at all and it only lasted for about 13 hours??? i can use my milestone quite a bit and leave it alone, and my battery can last up to 17-18 hrs!!! i'm using the stock motorola battery too!!! and also advanced task killer definitely helps save battery life and kill apps that i dont wanna use.... pls remember that its just a phone, and what more can u ask for from a good phone!!!

  • Wow...that post made no sense at all...

  • eh HALO brother? what moron,dude? I dont touch, didnt use, leave it stand by. original things from factory lah. 2 months old only zzzzz WTF power user lah???? zzzz since you say MORON! why not you share me some idea how u do it till 2 days? ur android version what? here is my phone status. background sync (disabled) GPRS (disabled using apn droid) used advance task killer (crazy mode) wifi off gps off screen minimum brightness use 2G only battery life 13 hours after few days my battery is original from motorola... teach me what more I missed?

  • the battery live is good for the specs of the the device, people, with 7 hours battery live, there are two options-> are power users, and no phone will do more than that, with non stop abuse, or are morons that don´t know how to use android sistem , and must have the phone going nuts in the background with apps and Synchronization and what not. I get two days with normal use, but normaly I use it as a PSP, so get much less.. then again I have 3 batts for it..

  • In case u need more juice in terms of battery life then go for a battery manufactured by SEIDIO corp. It has a 2800 mAH power rating and almost doubles up the life. Multimedia experience wise this is one of the best cellphones available and once the froyo update comes it will get even better.

  • sure if u need great smartphone with qwerty keyboard if u need camera phone for sure get n8 ? whats your need !

  • Is this phone better than the Nokia n8?

  • LOL? im the one who sleeps,i just download froyo 2.2.1 from xda developers its great

  • You experience your phone running slow when rebooted or during any time? Too many apps running in background could be a reason. I am using Task manager 2.2 (from Android market) to autokill taks. It closes the unnecessary apps starting automatically and keeps resources free on your phone. (Milestone - India)

  • ou wow, u got a nice prefect phone I assume. cos I asked other milestone users, their battery hardly reach 7 hours zzz how u put it sleep? press the "on off" button at top right there to close the screen. thats consider sleep?

  • i would like to purchase the screen for the phone. please provide your price as soon as possible

  • BP6X,it stays without usage for 2 days,I play everyday for 2 lectures asphalt 4,NFS Shift,Nova,I make phone calls more than 10 daily and I browse the net most of the day from 9am till 2am then it reaches 20 pct and I charge it and sleep

  • Please tell me what battery model u have now. Press *#*#4636#*#* and tell me full details about ur battery and Operating system version. Any enhancer to lengthen ur battery life? Please help me =] just 1 day, if my phone can last 1 day and I am Super satisfied. 20 hours also I will be satisfied

  • I don't know about the battery issue ppl talking about,but my milestone stays on the whole day with playing games for more than an hour,browsing,hearing music,alarm and making calls

  • The phone is great...love it battery life.....bull shit....can't stand it...to solve this i use juice defender and turn it into 2G and use 3G only when um browsing...and charge twice daily...but that's not smartphone features isn't it!! juice defender lets u connect 1 min every 15 mins...so whats the point of buying a smart phone when u have turn off most of its smart features to save battery from dying after 6 hours!!!!!!!

  • Take it to the service center.. dat looks like the best option specially since am not sure wat exactly ur problem is

  • Optimus has a CPU which does not support flash... the minimum requirement for flash is a ARMv7 CPU where as the Optimus has the V6 CPU in it... The Milestone on the other hand has an ARM Cortex A8 which supports Flash.. its only a matter of the OS gettin rolled out for Milestone..and u could start using flash on it

  • it will definately get flash droid the same model it got flash with 2.2 + u can go and check on adobe website to confirm milestone has a good gpu to support flash comparing to LG, still waiting for froyo in new zealand.

  • Looking at all the talk about battery life it seems there are no other major flaws in this phone. By the way, since it has CPUv7 it seems that this does not support Flash in the browser. Have been reading the review of LG Optimus One the other day and as Optimus One has the same CPU that's what was said about the Froyo running handset by GSMArena. So even if Milestone does get Froyo update it wont provide the desktop grade Adobe Flash 10.1 support in the browser. What a shame... Anybody has any view about this???

  • no the glass of the screen does not break easily, because its made of gorilla glass, which is a durable.... but just to keep ypur phone safe, i suggest you get a screen protector, & a case....

  • does the glass break or scratch easily?

  • milestone is fighting with Iphone perpendicularly zzz see Iphone 3GS. processor speed and graphic are about the same. Iphone 4 and Milestone 2. processor speed and graphic are also about the same LMAO

  • bring you Phone to srvice center. You may accidentally delete all files. I just guess?

  • at first i was worried about the milestone.... my question is why my milestone when i start all of my load was gone even i did not used it... and nobody even a person can explain it to me..... i don't know what was the problem of that situation.... i hope anybody can give me some answer to it cos right now i'm still not using it.... its useless for me..... pls. give me some answer....

  • control the battery quality. yeah I like ur comment. fully support you. =] and control phone wattage also

  • this is a very good phone, your decision is awesome. i am also having the MILESTONE

  • u don't know what is standby mean, for me battery backup is better than 3gs and I don't think sgs have better battery backup than milestone. ...I have 2 batteries and they have different backup. ...I think motorola should control the battery quality.

  • you see my btm (days ago) long comment. sms internet wifi. you will get 6 hours. weird? heres weirder. I dont care! No mattter HOW HEAVY IS THE USAGE(gaming, mp3,internet. ON ALL IN ONE GO) or EVEN WITHOUT ANY USAGE IT still lasts for 6 hours. BELIEVE ME? BEEN THERE DONE THAT. I'm fxxking pissed in reply to 100 Moto; ou wow!I am amazed!300 hours?wow!LIAR!I'm crazy? ok! here's the deal. I want my original from factory 2 months old Milestone last for 24 hours = 1 day, and I will GLADLY appreciate that AND totally stop what I am doing now.I am willing to do anything (except for "rooting" cos still under 1 year warranty). Y I am mad?Nice phone,nice looking,nice function like other phones,SUCK BATTERY!camera is uselesss since batteries sucks. cant use it when I go for outdoor holiday. 1 year a battery I dont mind at all . 1 day 2-4 times charge I cant stand it. I want. 1 day 1 charge. TAK PUAS SAYA? NI BU SUANG WO? pity. diu ni lau mo.wa du lan liao! oh yah thanks for ur recomendation. I DU LAN LIAO. I should have go for Samsung Galaxy.

  • hey Guys, Great new games released for Android Mobiles. Visit the link for more information.

  • Excuse me, could someone please tell me how long would the phone last if I only use it for like.. texting and occasional short calls and occasional wifi browsing? Would it last me more than 2 days for one charge?

  • Just checked the specs regarding standby time between Milestone vs. iphone 3GS. Milestone: 350 hours iphone: 300 hours X10? Where I live, Milestone outsold X10 by at least 10:1, and if X10 is really that good, its sales probably wouldn't be.... Despite being one year old, many (new to Android) users are still buying Milestone, which is selling for around US$450 unlock without contract. Agree most batteies last about 1000 times recharge, and if one charges twice a day, the battery would last about 1-1/2 years. What do most people do with phones being 1-1/2 years old nowadays? My wife had been using her iphone 3 (not GS) for nearly 2 years, she dumped it for iphone 4 simply because everybody else is using iphone 4. Milestone is still being a good phone (especially for the price right now), though 1-1/2 year from now, other than Moto freks like myself, how many are likely to keep this phone for daily use? (maybe a good backup) If the phone satisfies one's needs after 18 months, what's wrong to get a new battery, which costs around US$27? If battery is your greatest concern over everything else, like voice quality (crystal talk), Android, etc...then suggest you to look at Philps' phones, which are known to last DAYS per charge.

  • Well... shall I compare it with Iphone 3GS (3 days standby) or Iphone 4 (4 days standby), Sony X10 24 hours with my pathetic 12 hours only standby? batteries have only 1000 life span. 1 day charge twice with some heat which shortened the life span I guess 1 battery can last for 1 1/2 year only zzzz A phone which last 12 hours only is not really practical for daily user. and Plus! I hope the Android 2.2 ALSO FIX PROPERLY ON THE PROCESSOR SPEED STEP!!! Wakao!!! Advanced task manager states 550MHz for 11 hours *#*#4636#*#* also keep states 550MHz for 11 hours Android Status also states = current freq : 550Mhz Why is the speed never drops? all program have been killed using advance task manager,and running services.no widget running I saw some articles that Android and CPUv7 in milestone support speed step! and they says min freq is 250Mhz. Wow I and only if my phone run at 250Mhz or go lower 150Mhz when idle, I cant imagine how many additional hours it can last the standby. I want this SETTING!!!!!

  • One of the best phones by far...but what pushes me away to another manufacture...Samsung...is the fact that it will take too long to get Froyo...

  • yeah thanks!!!

  • Don't be panic, that's normal.

  • I've had my milestone since 2009....today however it started acting up and going "crazy' with a life of its own.....aps launched themselves, setting were changed mysteriously inclusive of language...the phone just went crazy.... nothing worked or is working at the moment. Anyone had this type of issue before?? I give up. I think it's a "brick/paperweight at the moment. Any help will be appreciated.

  • motorola again delayed froyo update for milestone.how sad.

  • I am looking for a free, download able Motorola Phone Tools 5.0. It did come with the phone...

  • Hero's battery lasts longer? Of course! You need to consider the screen size and resolution differences! Milestone - 3.7 inch 16m k color Hero - 3.2 inch 65K color The bigger the screen size and higher the resolution, the more power it would consume. Just like you can't really compare the fuel economy for a small Japanese car vs. a Mercedes Benz ML class. The hole you're talking about should be the proximity sensor, which turns the screen off when you put your phone near your face to talk. App2SD will be available along with the Android 2.2 upgrade.

  • Tutorial to Install Android 2.3 Gingerbread on Motorola Droid / Milestone

  • erm k lah dont want match with k800i but I hope motorola created some driver or effective energy saving softwares like Samsung le My cousin using Samsung galaxy Android OS can last 2 days standby.How about HTC Hero which can last 1 1/2 days standby mode? Motorola I saw how much is the price and wow kinda expensive (I get Milestone as a birthday gift from my UNCLE arrrr) nvm, all I want Motorola to do NOW is I hope for this following changes in Next Year's Android 2.2 upgrade 1) battery standby last for 24 hours, 2) prevent milestone shut down for unknown reason. happen when (charging,playing music) 3) [PLEASE PAY MORE ATTENTION ON THIS] provide a free software like PDANet to use it as a modem for it to connect to my PC. 4) I want wifi driver total update with overwrite.REASON? Milestone's favourite error, "turning off" and never turn "on" unless I reboot it 5) I want to know what is the hole at top right of the phone (little left of the RED and GREEN LED)? seems to me like secondary video call camera but stated dont have such thing. THEN WHAT IS THE HOLE???? 6) Some enhancement for Milestone's Camera PLEASE??? eg. exposure value? timer? Got auto focus, so can add touch focus??? 7) Make it flexible, where I can install softwares and the memories goes to the memory card When its new out of the box,charged for 8 hours, it can only last 6-7 hours standby. I used the phone for 1 month and I faced many problems. I used the following program to enhance my mobile experience battery life which now can last 10-12 hours with some calls and messages 1) PDANet(fxxk cant play Garena and cant go MSN weblogin page after 1 month PDANet trial de). I REALLY HOPE FOR A FREE SIMILAR SOFTWARE FROM MOTOROLA ON 2.2 UPDATE 2) Advanced Task Manager 3) Android Status 4) APNdroid (a heavenly sofware which BANS all internet connection (3G,EDGE,GPRS) except GSM when i dont need internet, plus the main sure fire way which enhance 6 hours to its battery life 5) Dont use any battery monitor (USELESS),cause my phone last 8 hours instead of 12 hours, factory standard monitor is good and accurate enough 6) I removed any WIDGETS on the wall and replace all to shortcut 7) I dont know what to do de. ANYONE WANT HELP ME GIV ME SOME IDEAS TO LENGTHEN THE BATTERY STANDBY TIME? THANKS!!!! I guess MOTOROLA did not do any torture test at the Android OS, however Bravo to the phone structure, I remember I carelessly drop it on tarred road direct to the screen, LUCKY not even a little injured structure still nice and beautiful =]I want to WRITE THIS LONG at here SO THAT I COULD EXPRESS MY 1 year LONG WAITED PDAs!!!!! I dont know where to write to express my wish as daily user and frusted with silly and wasting money for show off phone made by any manufacturer I am a SE user for 4 years de with my k800i, I am a university student and I dare to SAY 90% using PDA touchscreen. I felt so low,so I plan to get 1 myself. Hey anyway my phone internal(unstable call line,camera on by itsself,some corrupted images from camera cant view from PC also) are failing to me Motorola was A MOBILE Champion in 1990s. I surveyed touch and experienced SE X10, NOKIA c6, N97 from my course mate they dont give me the Premium and look more like a toy because of PLASTIC!!!! yucks!!! to me especially X10 very PLASTIC!!! . when I got milestone all of sudden and WOW! I got a high class phone from Ferrari???? I am so FREAKING LOVE UR MILESTONE My new budget is $1500 Sing Dolar will be increasing cos I am still saving =] MY WISH I just want a simple PDA mobile phone with QWERTY keyboard slide but dont outrageous by adding useless and not practical gadgets in daily life (eg. GPS i am not NEVER gonna pay for it), the digital compass and google map works fine for me in my recent holiday when I am lost in KL.I am extremely satisfied with 3.7 inch and I laughed my friend's HTC 4.3 inch phone cos cant go in his jean pocket muahahahah. I want my Smart phone works just my laptop, view and edit word documents, 3G, broadband modem function without relying on PDANet. Milestone as modem connected to PC using PDANet download speed was like insane 1Mbps speed on 3G network, spec say it can support up to 10Mbps. I dont know how to test it till that speed. What is smart PHONE?, right! PHONE at very least last for 48 hours and I think its ok. no need till 3 to 5 days I know big screen cant do that. HEY IPHONE 4 CAN LAST 4 DAYS standby by using default batteries!!! I saw my coursemate got it so I can prove I am not lying. I hate IPHONE even if Jailbreaked. battery replacement, ear piece,cost me a bomb. I am only a student not much cash to pay those I dont know where to write to express my wish as daily user and frusted with silly and wasting money for show off phone made by any manufacturer DEAR GSMARENA PLEASE SEND MY REVIEW TO MOTOROLA because I am such a noob guy,I dont know how to send them. I AM PLANING for Motorola DROID 2 Global or Motorola MILESTONE 2 from Singapore next year. I dont know whether those are good and reliable phone or not. My review may not be perfect but I just want to express what I want.

  • Upgradable means the hardware is designed to cope with the upgrades, and where I live, Moto has confirmed upgrade in Q1 (likely Jan or Feb) 2011.

  • Why compare the battery consumption of K800 with Milestone? The K800 is not even a SMART phone! Think about this, the screensize of Milestone is at leaset 50% more than K800. Do you think larger screen would consume more power? How about the constant updates on Facebook, email, etc...? Does the K800 do that? Do you know constant data transfer would consume more power? The solution is so easy - - get an app which saves power - charge both at home AND office - carry a spare battery (which iphone can't do!)

  • Other than having a lower pricetag (of course!), can you name one advantage X8 over Milestone? If price is not a concern, why not go for Milestone? The phone costs around US$450 where I live, unlock without contract.

  • y does gsmarena write it upgradable to froyo (2.2) while actually it isn't!!! or at least not yet!

  • WTF??? Malaysia didnt sell Motorola Milestone??? Noob country,even Singapore sold it earlier this year Jan de zzzz I have loyal SE K800i with me I just got Milestone (2nd phone) from my relative. yeah a gift =] Well what I have to say? This phone may not be superb like other phone but HEY! its still a phone right? haha I LOVE ITS BUILD!!! solid and have the classy premium feeling when holding it!!!!!! to screen really OMFG scratch resistant!!! cos I dropped it on tarred road direct to the screen,not even a scratch appeared!! I hate its user interface at beginning,but soon I LOVE it as I understand about it.I love its QWERTY keyboard!!!! BUT I wish motorola take not about my REVIEW T,T 1. THE BATTERY!!!!!!!!! WAH!!!! max I can get is 12 hours!!!! so lau yah!!!! my SE K800i (3 years old) can standby last for 4 days uncharged!!!! At very least let the Milestone last for 30 hours of standby lah!!!!!! 2. WTF zzz I cant use my phone as Internet Broadband modem =,= I dont want PDANet(dont lie is free,after 1 month u cant play online games,cant download music only can suft facebook and yahoo zzzz). Its my phone, how come ppl can control my phone fully yet I cant? even my other phone can do modem easily without depending on other softwares. 3. Aiyoh!!! U boost so special about ur camera zzz (no timer,no exposure value,no touch focus, face detection zzzz) So expensive phone yet no such features zzzzzzzz. 4. Y no Radio?

  • i have used this phone from one year.i like very much .good work by motrola very good.but price of that very high.

  • I just saw Motorola Milestone today at SM Megamall and they're selling it for PHP 19,000K. I currently have Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 which I have just updated it's software to v2.1. Eversince, I am a big Sony Ericsson fan but now I am thinking of replacing my phone with the Motorola Milestone. Feature, specifications, quality built, and screen size---Motorola Milestone is way ahead and it has left me drooling over it. Will be be a good buy and at the same time, practical to get Motorola Milestone to replace my Sony Ericsson Xperia X8? I'm really in a dilemma here. Please guys, I need your feedback, comments and suggestinos regarding my situation. Thanks!

  • Its scratch resistant! But better buy a screen guard..:)

  • Yupp.available in india..23500-24800!! Depends on ur region.. ^_^

  • Hello Guys :) Can i ask a question regarding Motonav? Because im chosing between this and Htc Desire.. but this one fits my budget and it has a qwerty keyboard.. the only thing i will miss here is the HTC sense UI, which i think is great.. and back to my question.. Is Motonav, a map software like the nokia maps that i can use it anywhere even though im not connected in the internet? for example im in the car and can still use it?.. unlike google maps that it needs internet to load the map.. and one more thing, is it free or after 90days or sometime, is that i cant totally use it anymore? Thx! :)

  • I love this phone, its really good, I just wish motorola would hurry up with our froyo update, or better yet give us the gingerbread update, asap because we milestone users have waited far too long to get an updated software!!! It makes no sense that the motorola droid(cdma) in the u.s. gets updated faster than us milestone users... when its exactly the same phone!!! Browsing is really good, camera is better than a lot of other phones, good apps...

  • actually i am an iphone user. but when i bought this mobile phone,am surprised and amazed...features, battery consumption,web browsing....AMAZING...i sold my iphone 3gs out for this device...am planning to buy droid x soon...

  • hi, my fone restarts and also when mixzing is playing music sometimes the android music player also starts by default...any suggestions to fix?

  • of course the most interesting aspect is your sons name...without it we wouldn't understand if browsing or playing games work...

  • You should use the button on your handsfree while driving!

  • Hey love the phone. Just done like how u have to answer the phone. When driving sliding finger across the screen is difficult. Any way to just answer?

  • Dont buy this phone...disconects from data transfer when you answer a call and kills g-talk or fring connection...its bullshit!!!!

  • milestone is great. my son Manikbadhwar plays lot of games on it. great for browsing.

  • milestone does not support mp3 transfer to other device but it can accept mp3 and other files from other devices. you need to download a software from the android market that enables you to transfer files like mp3 to other phones. just type in the android market bluetooth transfer and a number of suggested apps are available for you. i hope this will help

  • change the equalizer settings in the music player...that should do..!

  • legend & wildfire are getting froyo.. motorola is totally disgusting!

  • Probably the best phone I have ever used. Android has come along way from its G1 days. While its no Evo or Droid X at its time it was the premier smartphone on the market. One of the most customizable phones out there if your handy with a computer and some Motorola software. The processor overclocks to 1.288 MHz so it can keep pace with just about anything out there to this day and at the $70 dollar price tag I see on most sites you get a steal on an awesome phone.

  • Try Setting -> Call Setting -> Crystal Talk Setting

  • hi can anyone answer me or help me ? where is the sms automatically stored? is it on the 133 MB storage? is there a posible way to store it on my memory card? bacause i always saved many important mesages on my phone. And 256 MB RAM is only storage for application? pls pls help me :(

  • sorry but iphone still wins. why because of the res of the screen. when a phone comes out that is higher (not equal) then it will win.

  • i had the same problem. it IS because a lot of programs run in the background 24/7 doing who knows what. so the best thing to do is download/install a program called advanced task killer free. it will show you what is running and you can tell it which programs to kill.

  • there is an error in the "Features" part. It says adobe flash player 10.1. that is NOT available until os 2.2 is on the phone. also for tethering(making your phone into a modem) the phone wait until 2.2 comes out it supports it in the os.(finally a feature that is useful)

  • and the battery basically dont last even a day even when it is not in any vedio or any other use

  • I have a battery problem it seems the battery is not up to manufacture standard. Is there a specific way to charge ur milestone battery. I saw nothing on the manual that say 8 hours for 3 continuous days etc. I am on warranty so i will look to hand it it. Please let me know what u guys think about it

  • I had the same problem. If the phone settings are on automatic updates and even if your ymail,gmail and other mailing accounts are connected it might eat your credit slowly. U can have the internet removed from the postpaid chip and u connect via wifi

  • First do your research then speak! X10 will get Froyo in Q2 2011 according to SE turkey. It has Shutter button. at least look at the pictures of it !

  • download PDAnet from Android market place, this will enable your device to become a modem.

  • x10 will stuck at eclair at best. while milestone are getting froyo. & what's the point of 8mp cam, when it doesn't even has shutter key?

  • way way waY beter than x10 or desire thx motorola now i must buy milestone 2

  • I really don't understand why so many people complain about the V3's. I have a V3maxx, V3 imode, V3x, K3, K1, V6....they are all STILL working after nearly 3~4 years. I've been using my Milestone since Feb this year and not a single problem at all.

  • X 10 is still on 1.6 milestone at 2.2 X 10 poor sound quality Milestone have great sound quality

  • Hey Guys , i want use my milesstone as wireless modem, whats the solutions tell me guys

  • Yes, it does

  • You've to install cyanogenmod 6 or wait until the OTA update is available (Q1 2011), I'm in Honduras using TIGO and I already updated it to 2.2, obviously this isn't the official rom but you get the advantages of 2.2 very early

  • God Bless the R&D Department of Motorola (with the guiding aid of Google) in creating this beautiful mobile whose specs finally sound like it means business. I've had many moto phones and quite simply, the whole "razr-fad" was getting to me and so i moved forward to the Nokia Corp as their phones are undeniably study and most of them have a wide array of connectivity options. Their prices are reasonable too. After reading about this phone, i wont say that i'll be leaving my Nokia groupies.... but atleast Motorola has created a mobile to grab my attention. Hope to see more of this from the company as they strive to regain their spot as one of the top mobile companies. NIce Comeback guys! !!!!!!!!!!Congrats to Motorola & Google!!!!!!!!!!!

  • this is the iphone killer! but not x10 killer! x10 for now is the best because of 1 ghz cpu 4 inch screen with better demension stereo speakers secondary camera 32 GB internal memory DLNA sharing 8 MP CAMERA BLUETOOTH 2.1 1500 MAH LI-PO BATTERY

For example, will the motonav software work properly? Cause i've heard people say that motonav will have maps only for singapore and it will be useless in india.... please enlighten me on this anyone.... thanks in advance!!!

  • Does the screen automatically turns to landscape mode without opening the keypad?

  • Is it better than N8?

  • Milestone (1) as is described here in this section, with guarantee upgrade to Android 2.2 XT720 - Milestone "minus" the hard keyboard, but with better processor and cam. Not sure about official upgrade to 2.2 Milestone 2 - upgrade version of Milestone 1 with better keyboard, processor, and should have 2.2 out of the box.

  • If you are already using Milestone, the first thing to ask yourself is what's so bad about Milestone to make you unhappy? If only 2.2 or App2SD, then you can wait for the update. If you absolutely need a screen larger than 3.7", then go for the other...

  • Hi there..please highlight me on this confusion. What is the difference between Motorola Milestone, Milestone 2 & XT720. I am really keen in owning this smartphone.

  • hi Baldwin, my unit here so far so good :) dropped afew times although not from a great height. screen is as sensitive as usual. only difference i found are, different region rom, different ram n storage memory available. cheers!

  • Howdy Mark, google this app named "androot" i root my milestone with that app. good luck :) cheers!

  • How to root the Motorola Milestone? Please give the detailed step by step procedure on how to root it. Would it really be better if it is rooted? Hope to receive any response from anybody. Thanks.

  • The guy maybe is from a competitor! Didn't even dare to answer.... I've been using mine....quite heavily at times (like used up 2 batteries within a day) ever since Feb this year. Not a single problem. Still works like new. A friend of mine got a 2nd hand one last month, no problem either.

  • How long have u been using milestone? someone claim the touch will start to give problems after awhile.Have you had any problems with urs? Thanks in advance for ur assistance

  • What do u mean by period of time; how long?

  • I will be buying a milestone this week. Could someone help me sort out a few unknown. I want to know if the adobe flash 10.1 will allow u to play files embedded in internet page such as YouTube? Secondly can Skype be downloaded for video calls over the net? Finally how good is the milestone browser in comparison to the Iphone browser or the HTC HD 2 etc.

  • dont buy dis aweful mobile ......its touchscreen does not function after a period ...!!! many people are facing this problem !!! so dont buy it !!!

  • when India wil get 2.2 FROYO ....can i switch to x10 or wait for MILESTONE 2 IN India?????

  • Motorola milestone users ; plz suggest a best model , milestone or milestone xt 720 ? Which is best ? Battery wise & fastness ? Plz reply asap .

  • strongly agreed with u mate! cheers ;)

  • I think the phone can bring the users so much fun that charging the phone everyday, if not twice a day, would not be a problem! Before I got additional Android phones in July, I had so much fun there were times I drained up 2 batteries in a day! I'd recommend user to charge in the office / car, and then again at home while sleeping. Would the battery go bad? Just get another one, which should be at least 9 months away.

  • Whats the difference between an iphone 3G of Iphone 4 browser compared to that of the milestone and is Opera mini 10 in the same league as those mentioned before?

  • Is the Flash 10.1 embedded in the browser that will enable users to watch videos embedded on a page like you-tube? Can Skype be downloaded for video calls?

  • For those who're confuse/undecided either Milestone or the other brand, here's my review n un-bias experience y i go for milestone; 1st,it's powered by up-to-date hardware example ARM Cortex 8 proc with dedicated graphic card. 2nd, root it and u can shoot all the way up to 1ghz without any problem altho, yes ofcoz, batt life may be reduced logically :) screen is big enuff 3.7" for both lite gaming n browsing :) as mentioned by many, tons of apps available for ur daily need. for GPS, i'm happy with both Papago X5 and NDrive Ver.10 :) only disadvantage is the batt life, light use, almost 2 days. medium usage, 1 day plus, heavy use, u've gotta charge it every night :) trust me, Milestone will never let u down. If u guys got extra cash, another few more better options are the HTC Desire/Nexus One, Xperia X10 or else Samsung Galaxy S. Anyway, good luck choosing the best phone for your daily use :)

  • howdy Jay! google it, example g.o.t 2.2.1 for milestone. it'll for sure lead u to the desired page. download stuffs like usb driver, rsd lite and the rom itself at the provided site. which part of MY u're from? maybe we can come out yamcha n i install for u via my laptop + data cable ;) goodluck! cheers!

  • Where I live, for every N900 user, chances are there are at least 10, if not 100, Milestone users. That tells quite a story...the 100000+ apps through Android market would expand your phone beyond your imagination, and certainly will have tons of fun with it.

  • I know that, but many people advised me to go with n900 Which has better browser, keyboard and Supports more Video formats. What do you think?

  • 100% go for milestone!! n900 is too bulky n baddest thing abt n900 is its resistive touch screen!

  • im from mlaysia to....where do u get the froyo??... willing to try it.....

  • Get the milestone. Period. Just kidding. Anyway, Samsung Wave is a great phone. ++:super amoled, metal casing, snappy touch device --:bada os is still juvenile, few apps, few devs, single manufacturer-Samsung On the other hand, Motorola Milestone is still one of the best OHA phones out there. ++:bigger screen than wave, hardware qwerty, zippy performer, more apps, more devs --:help me on this one you guys. currently I cant find any except that it's not super amoled. Lets all bow to the Super Amoled.

  • @marie hardware wise, go for wave. OS, go for milestone APP's, milestone

  • but the htc hd2 have been tasting froyo for some time now. i think x10 wins the multimedia part, hd2 wins the IU part, milestone wins qwerty. now why cant we have all three in one amazing phone?

  • hey marie, samsung wave doesnt stand a chance in front of milestone!!milestone is in the different league all together.m using this phone since 3 months n its the best, trust me on tht!! now just waitin for froyo update!!

  • 1st Install Google earth then google earth searches for the gps

  • im confused!need help..motorola milestone or samsung wave?please..need ur response..thanks..

  • i'll choose either one of these both Milestone or Xperia X10. Bcoz Android is fun! lotsa apps to play/experience with ;) Web browsing is breezing cool and GPS got locked darn fast too! Lastly, get your Android rooted and ur phone will go berserk with 'em overclocked! ;) goodluck, cheers!!

  • Hi Jay, where in Asia u from? i'm from malaysia and my milestone currently running on G.O.T Froyo 2.2.1 ROM Europe Retail version. So far so good. As long as our country's frequency band matches the others e.g GSM 900 / 2100 band, then yes, we can run our Milestone with even the UK/Europe version of Froyo :) goodluck!

  • Hi can u help me? : -) jst want to ask which phone is the best among the tree? this milestone, xperia x10 or htc hd2? thanks in advance :-)

  • i dont think so. it has loads of problems .. and i hate to say this because i love my fone.

  • please tell me how to activate my gps on my phone (milestone) reply email: [email protected] thank you....

  • Froyo 2.2 For SE. I just called Motorola Indonesia, They confirmed the upgrade will be available early next year

  • so sad...that Asia wont get that froyo...that is what i heard...just get it 3 days ago......anyway it is a good phone....

  • Dear go ahead... i have earlier used n97..xperia x1..e72....but this phone is awesome. regarding ur query it have quick office preinstalled u can read all pdf files or excel. great sound quality. Automatically search wifi and connect. huge screen just like mini theatre in ur hands. its touch is so responsive u hardly use the qwerty board. u can ring me at 09872809065 thanks

  • I love Motorola Milestone, it rocks.

  • I am evaluating buying Mile Stone because I want Qwerty key board in my phone. I have now Nokia E63. Kindly clarify whether Milestone supports - PDF files attachments to be read - MS office documents reading - Voice recording (E63 has that feature). If not, can an application be downloaded to enable this from "market" - while Internet connect can be both via wi-fi and GPRS, can we set up wifi to be the default when at home to save cost of downloads through GPRS? - Quality of camera, and sound. Sorry to bother you, I chose to ask you because you said you are using for 8 months now.

  • Confirmed Milestones in HK will get 2.2 in Jan.

  • hello there, good to hear ur reply. so which firmware u downloaded n flashed onto your Milestone? Central Europe? UK? Austria? France? German???? thanks

  • I just install yahoo video and voice call, it support video call by using your back camera.

  • try to be in a cap plan startging $49 then you'll get unlimited facebook twitter myspace linked ebay and foursquare and you'll have 1.5g of data every month plus included $500 of value for calls

  • you can check the phone if you are intrested in buying if u are in bangalore.Buy it only after u are satisfied with it...you cant get that kind of assurance any where. pls do check the prices on ebay

  • hi...phone doesnt have any problems other than a few scratches.....am selling coz i baught samsung wave... and 17.5k is final...coz it still has around 9months warranty left(with bill) and it works with out any flaws.... am reducing the price only coz of those tiny scratches(on the black frame,not on the screen)....tell me if u can get a better deal than 17.5k on ebay and then i'll reduce the price

  • This phone does "not" support video calls, even though I would like to. I think only Samsung Galaxy S supports video call as of Oct 2010, ALL other ANDROID phones do not support video call at this moment.

  • The slogon for Milestone where I live is: "(this) One is all you need".

  • Is is possible to use video calling with Motorola milestone,as its specification shown unability for said function even after having 3G/HSDPA up to 10.2mbps? I would like to buy this phone very soon.

  • So do you recommend me to get this?

  • hey sinto@banglore can u pl tell me why u sellin ur milestone... i m interestd bt nt for 17.5 k bt pl temme ds it hv ne drwbacks...

  • I live in Cambodia, but i install froyo 2.2.1 already, mine still working fine, 3G, wifi... only one thing is that i can't overclock it yet... that a bit disappointed for me.

Since now it's ROM sbf is provided by GOT and it's on Europe side firmware, can we sort of like use it on Asia country like example Singapore or Malaysia or Thailand? would like to hear some feedback :) thanks and cheers!!

  • Hello to all Milestond users, I love my milestone it is awesome in everyway. The only thing is that it is killing me on data charges. I purchase 500megs each month without using it my megs it will chow them down in background. In a space of maybe one hour it will take at least 5 megabytes without me using it. is there anyway I can put this to an end. Please help.... thank you in advance...

  • Why bother to consider Garmin if you don't bother with maps?

  • Should i get this or the Garmin Asus A10?They are both running on Android.I'm not really into the maps and GPS things.I'm just looking for a good Android phone.I've see that the processor of this phone can be upgraded.I believe if the processor is upgraded then it will be a sick phone!So should i go with this or the A10?HELP PLEASE!

  • Thanks. Checked out Nashua's site and the deals. MTN's deals looks slightly better. Again, Motorola is under promoted.

  • Yes, Nashua Mobile stocks the phone under Cell C, Vodacom and MTN and will courier the phone to you. Call 0800 614 614 or www.nashuamobile.com.

  • After overclocking to 1Ghz or 1.2Ghz, the battery will drain faster, isn't it ? Have you measured this aspect ? How long stays in StandBy after overclocking to 1Ghz let's say ?

  • My wife uses iphone, but for some reasons, whenever she wants to play games, she would ask for my Milestone!

  • Hi Vincent. I'm in Durban and only MTN stock Milestone. I went to 3 shops to find one out of the box so I could look and feel it. First 2 shops had no dummy models. It's going for R269 on MTN Anytime 200 which includes R200 worth of airtime (per second billing) and 25 SMS per month.You can get Anytime 100 @ R209 p/m (extra R60 for R100 airtime is better). The catch is that you can only use 20% of R200 for data (ie R40 which is 20mb at R2 per meg). If you want more data, you must buy a data bundle as an add on extra, but unlike Vodacom, it has to be a bundle on contract ie 300mb @R149 or 500mb @ R189 per month. Works out a bit expensive and as Milestone seems such a good phone for internet browsing and downloading applications from Android Mkt, you are going to use a lot of data. On Vodacom, you can buy a once-off data bundle and not be tied into a contract. If Vodacom had the Milestone, I bet you would have to pay in a huge amount to get it on a Weekend or Top Up contract (I was looking at a Corby Pro with keyboard and good downloading rate - 7.2 but they wanted me to pay in almost R500 up front. Milestone is so much better, so imagine what the pay-in would be! I do prefer Vodacom to MTN and have had bad experience with Cell C. Motorola is also not marketed very well in SA (as it seems in Australia). PS. If you overclock the processor, won't it void the warrantee (2yrs on MTN)?

  • can we do video conferencing with this phone...? i ask this because it doesn't have a secondary camera..

  • the main disadvantage of this phone is internal storage too small, even upgrade to froyo, still can not install app as many as we want. because some app not allow to move to sd, even the app that allow to move to sd, only some part of app is moved, other part still using our internal storage... that is very disappointed.

  • Do other network companies in South Africa other than MTN have this phone. I like the phone but unfortunately in South Africa it is only available at MTN shops only.

  • Hi, bought this a few weeks ago. Love it but I have been a long time lover of Motorola, sadly though its not well marketed in Australia. Its easy to use, the screen is brilliant, its fast, love contacts, SMS. The slide out keyboard is a bit small and takes a bit of getting used to, but once you have mastered it you can fly along. And it automatically fills in ' for dont etc. Love that. The end bit that seems to hang over the edge is a bit annoying, not sure why that is. But its a minor issue. If you don't want an iPhone I'd certainly recommend it. But seriously, mobiles are such a "personal" thing, what one might love, someone else might hate. But I really love it.

  • Hi, i rather stick with my current 2.2.1, it is also great, waiting for milestone overclock to support it. Anyway, thanks very much for your instruction.

  • Sorry! but the best way before you install 2.2.1, you would root your Milestone first, then boot to 1Ghz or 1.2Ghz, then install 2.2.1. Try to update your Milestone to 2.1 again via the official Moto update from your phone on the internet. But I will advance you to also go to a good Milestone forum to learn how to remove the 2.2.1 and if I find another way around, I will let you know or just enjoy the 2.2.1 for now it's also fast and good.

  • Hi, i tried to do hard reset my milestone, however, after hard reset, mine still running 2.2.1, just lost all the data and app. but firmware still 2.2.1, i don't know why......

  • If you have android 2.2.1 already in your Milestone, you must procede by a Hard Reset Factory on your Milestone first. Be carefull Hard Reset delete all your data and format your memory. So you need to remove your sim card, External memory, and take all the informations from the internal memory by doing a backup or manually. Then your system will go back to android 2.1. So from here root your phone. After that you can overclock your Milestone to 1Ghz or 1.2Ghz Finally re-install android 2.2.1 than you have a super phone.

  • You need to root your Milestone but you must have android 2.1 than tou can overclock it to 1Ghz or 1.2Ghz. To root Milestone with android 2.1, you need to follow the instructions on this link.

  • Hi Droid Terminator, I have downloaded the milestone overclock from the link, however, it doesn't work with my milestone 2.2.1, they said can not load module, need rooted device. However, i already rooted my milestone 2.2.1 with universal androot app. any advise? thanks. One more thing, how can i install the Froyo launcher to my milestone 2.2.1? please advise, thanks very much.

  • Never had a moto before, so i cannot compare. The milestone is a nice phone, extremely good build quality. Android is also excellent. Screen on the milestone is tops. Keyboard is not laid out perfectly but i hardly use it cos the on screen keyboard is better anyway

  • Thanks DT. I'll pop into MTN when I get the chance and have a good look at Milestone. If it turns into a dud, I'll chuck it to Capetown from Durban, so watch out if it comes flying over Table Mountain and hits you on the head (I used to be an Olympic Javelin thrower!!!!) ps. GO SHARKS !!!!!!! You guys made the Cheetahs look like a schoolboy team.Hope we can do the same to WP next weekend.

  • The operation is dangerous and brick your phone too. So read carefully and decide if you really want it. Download the application to overclock your Milestone here:

  • Durban? Cool, I went in Durban more than 5 times and love the beach and Ushaka. Anyway, MTN's Data Plan aren't bad here: R10 for 10Mb R49 for 75Mb R149 for 300Mb Android so on. MotoSat is free for the first 60 days offline than you must pay. I didn't apply for it because I using Google Map or Google Earth online. Let me tell you Milestone got DVD quality video record, widescreen 3.7 with android 2.1 but become very fast with android 2.2.1, which bring more featurings. Hope you will enjoy your Milestone.

  • I have got the phone and it is wonderful device!!! I love it, Android is such a great OS. But the keyboard could be a little bit bigger.

  • Hi guys, must say this phone is the best smart phone that i ever used. Does any one know when froyo will be available in South Africa Thanks

  • After flash the new firmware, now mine is running 2.2.1, however, the icon doesn't change, it is the same as 2.1, but now i can move to SD card, that is great now. and everything work just fine, 3G, Wifi... are ok. However, i can not overclock it yet, can you advise me how to overclock it?

  • Hi Droid Terminator, I read the post and i tried to flash it as instruction now mine is running 2.2.1, however, i still don't know how to use GOT OR V2.0, may you instruct me how to install this GOT OR V2.0?

  • Hey Rands, how do you feel using it comparing to other motorola phones?

  • Thanks Droid Terminator and Rands. Ya, I see MTN have got the Milestone for a good price with R200 airtime (total R259 p/m). Just worried about buying it and having problems with it. I really want a good screen (resolution and size) so Milestone looks tops and slide out querty. Hope that their backup is good and there are no problems with the set. I'm in Durbs. Most of report on this site look favourable. How long have you had yours for? It will be my 1st Smartphone, so I'm sure that I will battle until I work the OS out. Thanks, await reply. PS. How good is MTN Mobile Internet and is pricing favourable (data bundles) as I'm currently on Vodacom. Their contracts are not good (120 weekend mins - got free calls on w/end and a/h with Telkom)and 'pay in' for a decent set is too pricey. PS again. How much is Motonav licence in SA (voice guided) for Milestone. Thanks again. Lekker bly.

  • if motorola gonna use amoled,all companies sucks....

  • Good points...

  • Hi, im a motorola Milestone user in SA, what do u want to know?

  • In HK you can get one for about US$473. No contract and unlocked with free docking (and likely spare battery, extra charger cradle, and screen protector from most electronic chain stores)

  • I'm living in Cape Town. Let me tell you something Milestone is the most popular android phone in the world. Motorola is back and make perfect android phones. In South Africa, You need to go on any MTN shop to find Milestone with android 2.1 out of the box. Milestone is the best phone you can buy believe me. You will never buy any Sony Ericsson again after using Milestone which is also cheap now.

  • Can any1 tell...if songs can b sent via bluetooth. .... I cn send videos n pictures via BT but not songs.... Please help...Thanks in advance.

  • really its have my hand i am happy /its not have my have im not happy.

  • Seen a good offer on Milestone in South Africa. Don't know any current Motorola users. Everyone I've spoken to has negative comments re: Motorola. This phone looks great and I really like it. Should I buy it as I will need to keep it for 2 years on contract. Will it last (my SE W850i is 4 yrs old but getting tired)? Lastly how is Motorola's backup. Any feedback please!

  • You can download a browser call "sky fire", it play flash. But the performance is better when using wi-fi than 3G

  • Milestone will support Flash only after upgrade to Android 2,2. If have not owned Milestone, it is better to wait for Milestone 2. Hardware is lot better

  • In Spec's it says milestone has Adobe Flash Player v10.1, but in review it says no flash support for web browser. Can anyone clarify for me what the flash player can play. thanks

  • If you need an free GPS offline solution for your Milestone. You may follow this link and use GPS with no dataplan or internet connection just like a OVI Map from Nokia.

  • n900 too fat cannot be a copy

  • even today the best qwerty slider is milestone 1 hope to milestone 2 come to world wide as soon

  • Copy? Does the inventor of current mobile phone need to "copy" from someone else? Where I live, for every 10, if not 100, Milestone users I see, I cannot even find one N900 user.

  • Thanks for your info and sorry to everyone.

  • I went to Thailand and I change my milestone to use Thai similar card and I can find Skype for my milestone, it works great, but I eat up my battery very fast, and overheat my device everytime I connected to Skype.

  • a copy of n900

  • Anyone have problems with touchscreen of the MS???

  • One of the best Handsets on Android OS. Its smart phone with Qwery key board. It any time better compared to blackberry bold 9700. Better than I-phone as it has qwerty key board and Android OS. Drawbacks -Internal memory space is less.Limited capabity to download application. - If you format all the applications downloaded will be erased. - Customers had bad experince with earlier Motorola handset. But company is giving Onsite warranty for one year. Underwhich they will repair onsite. Franchisee like CROMA are giving extended warranty of 2 years. One must go for it - Difficult to locate option of entering SMSC number - Nokia user will find dealing with SMS on Milestone. As in Milestone folders are not available. Its on threading. Problem comes when you want sms from multiple users to be stored in one folder. No good free download application available as of now on Andiod market. - Doesnot have two SIMcard option. - Doesnot have camera on front screen. I strongly recommend you to buy Motorola Milestone

  • See this Motorola fans.

  • Correct me if I'm wrong, as I read somewhere the Skype for Android was initially launched in "US" only, and it won't "work" (not launch) in China and Japan. So...

  • Skype just released their app for android, they said it available all over the world except China and Japan, but why i am in Cambodia can not find it in android market? or even go directly to skype website to download also can not find too. Does anyone out there tried it? and face the same problem? is there anyone can help how can i install it to my milestone? Thanks!

  • Milestone 2 Will be release by the end of this year. It is preio If you can wait just getnstall with Froyo 2.2. Better hardware better software. So If you can wait just get Milestone 2

  • This Phone will be upgrade to Froyo 2.2 by the end of the year depending where you are. after that it will play flsh. you can install application on external memory. Just wait

  • It does not support Flash, but if you download an app called Skyfire (its a browser) it will play most flash videos for you.

  • Hi, anyone can tell me if this device supports flash video, i ask cause my girfriend likes to much watch videos and i want give this cell for her birthday, thanks.

  • U can download an app called 'full screen caller id' frm the market. When a call comes, u need to tab answer!

  • When I get a phone call and I swipe the phone, it doesn't work most of the time. Is there a way to set this up? Is there a different way to answer the phone?

  • any experience with task killer welcomed!

  • i took my dogs for a trip at 10am today when my power was 80% then about 5pm my first call slaughtered battery.i will have to switch it back on because with task killer i could live almost two days

  • hi got the phone just a few days ago... how can I edit my contact groups and is there a way to add contacts in my SMS by selecting the contacts in my phonebook?

  • hi rebel, sorry to hear that. u removed task killer after read the article according to that link is it? and ur battery lasted u til 2nd day? hhmmm seems like the article is totally opposite then? guys, any experiences or comment? maybe we can learn a things or two about this Task Killer thing. cheers!!

  • bluetooth and wifi do not switch on properly

  • my 2nd day w/o task killer & I am 2nd day going from work with a dead battery

  • howdy Heng! glad to hear from u again. Hell yeah man, this phone rock! yeah, by setting ur phone only on 2G network, it may reduce the hunger pull from battery life but since u're on the run most of the time especially on push mail site, hhmm i understood tat u'll have to charge yr set every night but hey hey, bear in mind, now u're running 1ghz man ;) imagine 1ghz + the built-in 3D ability, this thing is awesome. yup, i believe all of us are waiting for the mighty Froyo to come. coz my side too installed too many apps d and need to clear off some due to limited inner memory capability LOL. but no worries, to me, the net surfing, the gps and the overall is very satisfying already. bravo Moto bravooo! cheers mate! msg via milestone

  • I am using Motorola milestone since august, and i am very impressed from its touch and a lot of applications available on web.I like it

  • Hi Henry, now I use only 2G and wifi, my battery life now is very good. I set my screen brightness to 50%. my phone connect to data all the time by using 2G or wifi, because I need push mail all the time. even I have to charge it every night, but I love it, because I am a hard user. thanks mate, I am waiting for froyo for my milestone, because internal storage really not enough for me to install my favorite programs or games from android market. cheer mate. post from my milestone.

  • good day Heng! cool! congrats! haha how's the batt life? i have yet to push my Milestone all the way to 1ghz. now running @ 800mhz(default) and so far so good too :) is ur screen brightness set to 25-30%? that may help in saving up ur battery for couple of hours too. cheers mate!

  • Hi Henry, i got your instruction, and now mine run 1Ghz, very smooth, thanks!

  • sorry Heng, typo error for 800Mhz ~ 849Mhz...hehe dont wanna get flame by others hitting me misleading the info, LOL. cheers mate!!

  • sorry Heng, missed out the last Q hahaha. how do i know it's overclocked? example when u set the freq. to 800mhz/60vsel in 1 of the default setting, u'll felt your Milestone is running smoother. Especially during web browsing and running Papago GPS. Scrolling also u're able to notice that it's smoother than before too. Lesser lag i should say. Another way to know wat's ur current CPU reading is via this app named 'Know CPU for RockPlayer'. Default clock, it'll read at 549Mhz. After u o/cloced it e.g to 800mhz, it'll read and shown 849Mhz :) Give it a try, no harm trying/exploring the world of Android and their abilities with our Milestone ;)

  • hello there Heng how's things ur side? oic, no wonder ur phone is heating up. i guess it's pretty common for it to get heat up at a certain warm level but it'll not as warm/hot as those that going to explode ur set away hahaha no worries k? my unit oso get warm especially during GPS. How to overclock? here's wat i learned from 'googling' all over. Get yr self the Milestone Overclock via Android Market, and then, find ur self the UniversalAndroot to Root yr milestone. with these two, u can overclock ur Milestone d. hhmmmm so far, so good. i overclocked mine as suggested and well, yeah, still lasted me 1.5 ~ 2 days. i o/c at its default 800mhz. by the way, read this article, kinda surprise to read it. It's about Task Killer n RAM tat utilized by our Android OS. here's the link :

  • picture are nice w/o noise,colors almost like a reality videos good,not jumping,picture is relatively clear but camera is sensitive on light condition,in dark environment does bad job

  • battery 1.5-2days max. picture & video surprised me,average good,expecting worse ''motorola'' browsing normal speaker quality when u are on the call excellent,the best which i ever had,sound is nice clear like a mirror

  • Friends; please provide a quick review on the following parameters( I want to buy this). 1) Battery life. How many days it can survive without charging (usage moderate: 30minute call+ 2hour surfing or video watching a day). 2)How is the picture quality. Does it has image stabilizer also. 3)How is the video quality. 4)How is the browsing experience. Many thanks in advance.

  • Good day Henry, thanks very much for information. I noticed that mine is heating up when i use Nimbuzz. how can you overclock your CPU? how can you know your milestone overclocked than its original speed? pls advise, thanks!

  • good day RSS, go to Setting > Mobile Networks > Enable the "Use only 2G" and your 3G will be automatically disabled. or You can go to Android Market and download the apps call APNDroid. Very useful, givit a try mate! good luck :D

  • Where do you go to disable 3G

  • could someone tell me if the word/excel documents are editable in this model

  • Various sources have indicated Milestone will be upgraded to Android 2.2 OS.

  • Hi! Can anyone please tell me for sure if this phone can be updated to the latest version of Android OS ? Thank You!

  • good day Heng, maybe u can try to disable or off the 3G while u're not really using it?? only enable or ON the 3G when u wanted to. maybe this may helps u solve some problem? as for my set although it's 2nd hand. so far so good. no heating up issue even though i've even overclocked to 850mhz/58vsel for daily usage. by the way i found out tat this Milestone sometimes it "automatically" activate "this" and "that" and causes us headache example the "unexpected" data for the apps running. tips from forum, i've use the APNDroid to settle this issue. So far so good. Else it'll burn a hole in my pocket during paying phone bill hahaha. good luck mate!

  • Yep its better to get it to the service center dats de best u can do..

  • Don't know why, my milestone, drain battery so fast while using 3G, and become overheat, sometime temperature go about 49 Degree C, that i need APNoff to turn it off, so that it can cool down... and now sometime when i plug charging in it, instead of charging, it become very hot, and battery drain... does anyone experience the same like mine? And I found out that using wifi, doesn't use up much battery, and battery not become hot also. I always use 3G on, because of my unlimited data plan... no reason that i use wifi... and my 3.5G plan speed is so fast....

  • Just got my 2nd hand Milestone few days ago,with good condition...all I can say is,the built is superb.feel just nice to hold on hand.screen wise is clear n bright and slide mechanism oso felt solid. Wifi get connected within 8sec n gps on papago x5 locked within 2min for cold start! Browser is good n render pages fast plus the panning is silky smooth compare to my previous 5800 n Omnia 2. Only downside are the Android Market sometimes down n oso worst part the data activate/run auto by itself. Thank god for APNDroid that helped disable data n with milestoneoverclock truly made the unit run like a breeze!!! Not regret having this set...infact I'm typing this review via milestone...bravo moto!!!

  • so your phone doesnt work at all,right?

  • I bought the Milstone in March with Starhub. However, the touch screen is so sensitive that my call alway get hanged up. And now the touch screen is not working as in I can't even unlock or power off the phone. I called the toll-line 800-186-1097 but I find the customer service not so friendly either, she adviced me to take out the battery but I tried it twice or thrice however it still couldn't solved my problem. Anyone experience this problem before or can share with me how to solve it. Haha, most likely to ask me send the the service centre. =)

  • App to SD is only possible AFTER the upgrade to OS Android 2.2. You will have to wait til your phone gets upgraded.

  • This phone does NOT support video call.

  • Hi everyone, I have one question each time I download apps from the market place they go straight to my phone memory. I want to install. apps in sd card memory. If there's anyone who knows how to do this please help... Thank you.

  • Had a Milestone for 4 months now. Really pleased with it. Great call quality, great coverage (better than friends with iPhone's) and love the slide out keyboard. A great buy!

  • how can i make video call on this mobile

  • My motorola milestone also does that and you just have to let it cool down

  • My picture messages won't download and it is frustrating trying to get it. Am i doing something wrong? What do i do to get them.

  • ...then u have to have your hands like a child.if u have soft issue use motorola software updater.after flash your phone must work perfectly

  • Yes, I had Milestone same problem with you and could not slove until now.

  • Hi I have been using Mile stone for last four months. It is not exactly a great phone for its price. Not easy to handle with one hand. Ergonomically it is not a good phone. For last one week my phone is behaving erratically, its touch screen would sense touch by itself and execute commands by its own way. Sometimes it goes crazy and start executing anything and everything. I cannot use this phone and given for service. Battery life is bad when 3G data connection is on, only last 2-3 hours. Heats up when using 3G data connection, or GPS. Navigation using Google Maps is really bad. You cannot track your location and directions. In Sum I am not happy with the phone. I had spend Rs. 28K on it and bought it even before it was advertised in Media but find it is not worth it. Motorola has locked the bootloader/ OS, so cannot update it when new Android O/S is released. Camera is good, Voice quality is good.

  • Its Sexy Phone.... Perfect Response... Great GRIP and looks. am using before 4 months... i dnt have any bad comments for MOTOROLA MILESTONE

  • I found that my milestone is overheat when voice all from 5 minutes, or using 3G for surfing about 10 minutes, or playing video from 10 minutes up... is there anyone experience the same? please advise! is there anyways to cool it down?

  • Motorola and Verizon score Gingerbread exclusive Just like last year, Motorola and Verizon will launch a Droid phone for the holiday shopping season that will be the first device to feature a new version of Android. Motorola is ultra secretive when it comes to big product launches so I might have a few details that are slightly off, but they have left clues all over the place and I�m just fitting the pieces together using my Android-powered brain and intel I�ve gathered from my growing team of ninjas. This superphone, which I�m calling the Droid T2, will be the first to ship with Gingerbread (most likely Android 2.5), the first to feature NVIDIA�s dual-core Tegra 2 platform, and the first to offer 1080p video encode/decode. Users should also expect all the high end features found in the Droid X with the addition of a front-facing camera. Some of you may remember that Motorola Co-CEO Sanjay Jha boasted about delivering a 2 GHz phone in time for Christmas, but we recently discovered that was a slip of the tongue and he was actually referring to the two cores (clocked at 1 GHz each) found inside the Tegra 2 platform. We also know that Motorola and NVIDIA are feverishly working on the next Android kernel. At first I thought this was for a tablet project, but we now know that the real Android tablets (those with Honeycomb) will not appear till 2011. Google traditionally targets a specific product launch for new releases of Android because it is easier to develop for a single device (then they release the source code so other hardware partners can port it to their devices). Verizon is the largest U.S. carrier and Motorola knows how to execute a big launch, so Google has chosen them to deliver Gingerbread to the masses. Little is known about Gingerbread at this point, but we expect it will feature a refined user interface and some of the features we saw demonstrated at Google I/O such as Google Music and the online Android Market. Other possible additions could be the rumored services like Google Games and Google Me. Overall, I think Gingerbread will be a minor update (although still exciting) and this is why it will be branded Android 2.5, while Android 3.0 is being reserved for the full tablet experience coming next year. Other than Motorola, we only know that LG is planning a Tegra 2 smartphone, but I don�t think they will deliver it this year. HTC was also rumored to be going dual-core with the myTouch HD, but it�s looking more and more like that was a typo and it will feature the same 2nd-gen Snapdragon found in the Desire HD. If you want the best dual-core smartphone with the latest version of Android, then keep an eye on Motorola. They have a press event scheduled for October 5th at CTIA, but that is likely too soon to announce their Tegra 2 phone. It is more likely we will hear solid info around mid-November. Does it sound a little far fetched or do you believe Sanjay Jha and Motorola will deliver the premier Android experience this Christmas?

  • Hi everybody, I've been using SE P1i from 2007 til late 2009. I loved it did everything I expected from it. Its been very difficult to replace it after its touchsreen gave in. Try many phones (N95 8GB, HTC Snap, Nokia E63). I wasn't happy with any of them. I got myself a milestone this past weekend and it does everything I want from it... The point is the Milestone is a very good phone... I'm happy with it...

  • Try Andobex application , then you can send music via bluetooth. Its avaiable at the market

  • There is an application at the market called Androbex that allow you to send music via bluetooth

  • Send SMS. No need to write name and Phone number one by one. Click on t then scroll to name in phone book. You can add as many as you want. It does not work same way as Nokia.

  • Well, it is a nice mobile phone, but the worst thing i faced on this mobile is that if i want to send a message to a several contacts, i have to write the name of the number one by one, and i can not pick them from the contact all together. this is what i am missing when i was using my nokia phone.
