Motorola Milestone GSM :: Can't Install Froyo On It
Apr 19, 2011
Have been trying for days. Talked to Motorola. Useless. Everytime I try to install, no matter who's computer I use, I always get the same error: "Failed to uninstall previous Motorola Software Update". This error occurs almost instantly when I double click on the installation file. I have tried it with the phone plugged in via USB and without. I have tried it from my desktop, and from my laptop. Same result. Motorola told me to download it to my phone. That didn't work either. It must be something to do with the phone, but I can't figure out what. The phone currently has 2.1 update 1.

I just puchased Milestone 2. I wonder if anyone can tell me how to install motonav in my new phone. I had motonav in my first Milestone.
I have re-installed several times from MOtotext´s toolbox but cant seem to find it in my applications?

I can't install Android 2.2 to my Milestone, using a computer running XP Pro SP 3. The installer runs for a minute, then shows a notepad file with this:
'check whether the specified hotfix exists in the target computer
strComputer = "."
Dim HotfixFound :HotfixFound = ""
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}! " _
[code]....
The hotfix it refers to is apparently a Vista Windows installer issue. I reinstalled windows installer just in case, and tried removing all Motorola related software from the computer then running the installer again.

is there anything i can do to improve flash video playback? after the 2.2 update i was excited to be able to use flash on my phone, but video playback on it seems so bad that it's unwatchable.it's like a slideshow at best, and at worse i'm only getting one frame every thirty seconds or so. oddly enough the sound never skips or stutters at all.i've tried it over wifi and 3g. Internet videos in the native app and other non-flash streaming media seem to work perfectly.i'm using the stock browser with flash player 10.2.157.51 (the latest one available in the android market), and i've tried several different videos linked from m.flash.com

I updated my Milestone which is UAE version to Froyo yesterday after a long delay, was really excited all evening until i discovered two problems with my wifi.The Device does not connect to the corporate network as my office uses 802.1x EAP and there is no place to enter proxy where as my friends using samsung galaxy s (Froyo 2.2) connect to the network and browse using the wifi advanced settings to enter the proxy in their device.

I have a problem in my milestone. Im trying to update my milestone to froyo from eclair 2.1 update 1 via MSU (Motorola Software Update). But after some minute It restart with a blank screen then reboot to OS and MSU says update failed. My last resort is to flash it via RSDLITE but when im trying to get into bootloader it shows blank screen then reboot to OS. I cant enter to my bootloader.

Have a brand new install of Windows 7 64bit and a 6 month old Milestone 2 which has always succesfully connected to PC/Mac in USB mass storage mode, but when trying to connect to new Windows & PC the PC tries to install MTP drivers that fail.Solution is to select the failed device in device manager and manually install the driver selecting the device as a USB mass storage device and not the default MTP device.

After spending 2 hours on the forums and 2 hrs on motorola website, downloading the motorola software update and finding that the updater says that your phone is up to date with 2.1 (where as the motorola site says 2.2 is now available) and browsing thru unending discussions, I was unable to update my Motorola milestone to Android 2.2. I last week sent my phone to the service center to ask them to update it to 2.2, they returned the phone saying it is up to date.I am sick of removing applications and always worrying about the remaining ROM availability. [code]
If the official version is not available in Dubai can someone tell me of a shop where I can get it updated, as I dont really understand the concept of rooting and stuff like that.

once in a blue moon, i'll go to the marketplace to update my apps and instead of showing me my 80+ apps, it only shows three. it will show: Internet, streetview for google maps, and google maps. obviously my apps are still installed because when i search for a specific app that i know needed an update (ex: facebook) it shows there's an update. generally it will fix itself by either a reboot or having to unistall marketplace updates and wait for it reupdate itself.

since at&t started pushing gingrbread updates, many users have posted their issues with gingerbread. I have downloaded the updated but fortunatelly (?) have't installed it. I am perfetly hapy with my standard, non-rooted atrix with 2.2 the way it is, no bugs, no issues. However, I am also for the latest and greatest. So, before I install the update i would like to know if there is any way for downgrading back to froyo just in case GB gives me any trouble.

Let me know what they tell you. They told me it's "Impossible to downgrade to froyo."I say we pick one day and call on that day. Then they will have to agree it's a trend.

Ok so after having to replace the earpiece under warranty I thought would risk another outage to my Defy. It was bought sim-free and I use my work SIM in it from Vodafone. So ran through the upgrade, and it worked first time ... until wifi. Wifi does not connect or rather from what I can determine I cannot actually obtain an IP address. For it to actually connect to the hub I have to force the settings to toggle the "Enable Auto IP" setting and manually set the channel to the same as my hub. (not had to do that with any other phone ... ) by the way, this still does not give me a data connectionAlso tried setting a static IP address and related settings and that does not work either Did a factory reset as recommended on the other pages - no avail.My hub runs WPA/WPA2 and I have a variety of devices connecting to it, trouble free, including 2 other Android 2.2 phones (HTC Desire Z and LG Optimus One), Windows XP, Windows 7, PS3 etc etc ... oh and once I had a Defy running 2.1 Eclair connecting trouble free?

The update is great, but if we make a list of all bug and glitches that we find, it might help Motorola to fix these issues!I don´t have MotoBlur on my phone. Only the launcher.

Upgraded the update and the home screen and the icons in the bottom for Menu, Dialler, Contacts did not change. why is that so? when I saw the Android Users guide on Google for 2.2 it has changed from eclair,
How to change it to Froyo from the screen itself they are saying that you are running Eclair Not froyo. After upgrading to Froyo the battery is not so good. How to calibrate the battery
Is there any way for this (or) i have to do a discharge and charge the battery a couple of times. Now also My battery goes from 20% to 70% when i switch on the phone.
