Motorola :: Milestone Doesn't Keep Up Charging When In Heavy Use
Apr 26, 2010
I took a road trip last week and weekend and noticed that when under heavy use, my milestone will discharge even when plugged into the charger. From a functional standpoint, my milestone did great. I listened to an entire baseball game steamed with the MLB app over ATTs (mostly 3G) network. (Several places in S GA on I75 dont have 3G but the streaming app did pretty well over EDGE). I also use Google Nav and had my screen on since it was sitting on my car dock. After 4-5 hours of use my milestone was pretty warm and had quite a bit less battery life even though it was on the charger the entire time. I am guessing the GPS is a huge power draw, but what about having the screen on all the time. I would think that as long as the device is plugged into a power source, it should be good to go.

My problem is I want to be able to charge my phone through the USB. At work our workstations are blocked from installing drivers/software. Can I get the milestone to charge without installing any drivers? I dont need data access or anything, just charging only.I used to do that with my blackberry.

I just bought a Milestone 3 in Hong Kong. I found that it doesn't not work with the 3G, but only the 2G for normal phone conversation and SMS text.
I had tried other SIM cards of other service providers, but it does not show any luck as well.
All the settings including APN have been verified with the staff in my phone service provider. The only reply was that the phone itself may not be able to acknowledge the APN settings.

My Milestone's backspace button sometimes doesn't work and sometimes neither does the charging port (doesn't recognize it should be charging?).I'm going to exchange it tomorrow but wanted to know if anyone else had such issues?

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.

I have noticed that when my Droid Razr is off and I plug in my charger the status led blinks once and the charging screen starts up and charging begins - as expected. However sometimes when I plug in the charger the status led blinks once but then the charging screen does not start and charging does not start - I have noticed that if I then press the power on button the charging screen starts up and charging commences. Is this normal?

When I connect my phone to a wall charger (provided my Motorola), the touch screen responds rarely (slowly). As soon you disconnect the charger it works fine. I had talked to Motorola specialist over the phone and she provided me with a new charger. However, the problem still persists.
Yesterday, I used a Blackberry charger (with very close voltage and current output) and the phone worked fine.

I've noticed some strange behavior with my iPhone 4 where my account shows 3G usage at a time when I am certain I am on wi-fi. For example, on June 22, 2012 at 7:17AM EDT, I was at home, getting ready to go to work. I am 100% certain my phone was on wi-fi at the time. But, my AT&T usage shows over 460MB of data over 3G. I've read about turning off cellular data and location services, but that kind of defeats the purpose, doesn't it? Why heavy 3G data usage seen while on wi-fi, and if so, how to track down what was causing it?
Info:
iPhone 4, iOS 5.1.1

i am using xperia pro mk16a and a few days back i updated to ics 4.0.4 through pc companin s/w.everything went well and the update was completed in 20 minutes flat w/o any error or problem.but since then even after downloading adobe flash player the flash videos which are of duration 5 minutes or more do not load the flash video screen shows that it is loading but it doesnt load even after wainting for 30 minutes earlier on gingerbread these very videos used to load in less than a minute.i have tried almost all the browsers available in the market...but the result is same. i think this is some compaltibility issue of adobe flash player and android 4.0.4.Internet works bery well..no issues on that account.otherwise the ics update is very nice and feature rich and enhanced the overall xperience.

I updated my milestone to 2.2 But it has got very slow, Moreover it hangs itself. Screen shows some lines n then when i press the screen lock button the screen goes black and the shortcut screen still glows.Phone recieves the call and if i press the volume button it correctly vibrates and beeps. I have tried formatting, flashing from the service centre everything. The people here in service centre are dumb. They say that the fone have problem in flex, but My phone used to work fine when I had 2.1.

I just updated last week to Gingerbread but this was happening before that. I plug my phone into my factory charger and when I go to unplug it it says it is still charging. Dosent go away until I reboot the phone, any ideas? When it is fully charged the green led even stays lit. Dosent do it all the time just enough to be annoying. I really dont want to trade my phone for a reconditioned one since it is only three weeks old.

I was interested in getting a Milestone, but before I do, I was wondering if there are any issues with the SMS time stamps when you receive a new SMS message? I had an HTC Hero before (I'm on Rogers network) and it would always be off by 3 hours and I couldn't find a resolution for it.
