2.4.24 is motorola build for Android 2.2.2 you can download it on motorola update or here --> http://and-developers.com/sbf:milestone2 but you should look for a tutorial here in the forum.
No Gingerbread update for M2 available now, some chinese guy said it will update in Q3 2011... Honeycomb is for tablets.=P
Argen2Stone is our only ROM.
Just browse a little bit through the forum to get root and stuff.
Edit: Is your phone Milestone 2 or 1??? You said Milestone 2.1, M2 comes with froyo (2.2) not eclair (2.1)

are you using Milestone 1 or Milestone 2?
the 2.2.2 update is for Milestone 2 which is not compatible with Milestone 1

Is it necessary to upgrade to official 2.2 if already on non official 2.2 firmware ?

Hey Guys and Gals,
I currently have 2.2 Froyo 1.2 Running on my Dell Streak Unlocked, Seeing how the official 2.2 update will be out soon, I'm wondering if I should update when it comes out, I have only been in the scene for 2 weeks, So i don't know whether he 2.2 update will block the ability to root, or install unofficial apk's...
Any suggestions and and info is much appreciated.
Great question. Guidance on how to handle greatly appreciated. If OTA of 2.2 from Dell is downloaded, can we immediately root on Streak?
From what i've read, the method will be different but you should be able to (of course, that may change if certain things have changed since the leaked beta was seen in the wild)
I know I won't be. Stephen's FroYo builds are currently better and will stay better than anything Dell will ever put out.
Besides that I've heard that the leaked Dell build is only getting ~850-950 scores on Quadrant, while mine runnning Stephen's 1.2 gets ~1100-1200.

Thanks for the input Mr. Kyle, Looks like i will be staying on Stephen's Build, I don't see any reasons why I should upgrade to the official one, and I don't want to risk the root method, I'll wait and see what other members who will upgrade will say about it later on ...

[INFO] Centralize Galaxy Tab P1000L/P1000N Development

Hi fellows,
For sure, more than 95% of ROM development at XDA is devoted to P1000 version (Euro/USA/... Galaxy Tab version). Unfortunately (or not...), Samsung released at Latin America two different versions of GT: P1000L and P1000N. My researches shown that theses version has different hardware from P1000 one, and the most important, IMO, is the touchscreen. Conclusion: when we try to use custom ROMs, we aren't able to even use it.
So, I have started this thread to centralize information regarding P1000L/P1000N. Please, if you have these devices and have already tried to use a custom ROM or Kernel, please post the information here. With this, we can verify what modifications we need to make to adapt XDA custom ROMs/Kernels to our GTs.
We have the following topics here on XDA about our devices:
Humberto's ROM and Kernel (Froyo)
Humberto have compiled a Froyo Kernel and ROM with many improvements
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=974408
Humberto's Kernel (Gingerbread)
Humberto have modified the original, leaked P1000N gingerbread kernel to add Lagfix and gave us instructions how P1000L users can flash P1000N gingerbread version
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1124224
My Gingerbread kernel
I have compiled a P1000L/N kernel for gingerbread after the source code release, adding many things like UV, OC, new governors, etc. To avoid mess with Humberto's thread, I decided to start a new one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1274855
With the right kernels now, we can flash customs ROM like:
BOCA
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1172307
Overcome
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1205990
CM7
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=931857
OBS.: Always refer to P1000L/N Gingerbread thread from Humberto to verify which kernel you need to flash to use one of these ROMs!
Thanks!
I can provide the PDA, Modem and CSC Multi files to be flashed in Odin for P1000N from Claro provider if they're needed at all, only downside is that they're JJ1 not the JJ5 which they're currently shipping Tabs with. Honestly I don't see any difference between the versions, but there should be some.
Well, apparently we got a new kernel for GT-P1000L deceives that camera and TV tuner is fully working and has interesting capabilities, like 1.4GHz overclocking! Thanks to @humberos. More info on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=974408
Additionally, my Vivo GT has received an update through Kies and now my ROM version is P1000LVJJMA, which I don't know yet if this kernel is compatible. I have contact @humberos and we will try to find out.

I can not attest to validity of the ROM, as I don't have a latin version, but yeah... There it is.

Are you on stock rom ? I upgraded my p1000n to gingerbread overcome and feel that the battery last less than with froyo.

I see a lot of P1000CWLZTO being offered in online shops in Brazil.
Would that be a third version: "P1000C"?
What are the differences between the L, N and C versions?
I do like to have the digital TV. Actually, is it just 1seg? Does it show 16:9 broadcasts correctly (soccer!)?
Thanks!
Hi! I just got a gt-P1000n unlocked tablet from Chile. I leave in Canada.
Froyo 2.2, baseband P1000NUBJM2.
This is my first expeeience with android, i come from wm.
I've got a lot to learn.
After many unsuccessful attempts with z4root, i did root my tab with oneclickroot.
I have read these latin tabs are different than others. How?
Lesser quality?
I can't find any specs comparaison on the web.
Thanks

Not at all... just a little different in hardware. I had that firmware on my P1000N. Maybe if you check on the small print on the back of your tab, you should see P1000N... let us know.
Basically we have a few different Tab hardwares. The P1000, Euro US and etc, both GSM and CDMA versions. Latin versions P1000L / N (and maybe C as commented above). P1000L and N are the same, except P1000N does NOT have TV, P1000L has TV, 1seg like in Brazil. There is also another different hardware, the Tab with wifi only (no SIM chip).
Since P1000 is the most commonly used one, there is a lot more development going on for it... but luckyly we have HumberOS for the salvation of our latin version tabs. Just Google "xda humberos" to find his posts.
Cheers.
Yes i have the 1000N.
I read here it is difficult to flash an gingerbread orovercome rom!?!?
Only Hubertos roms are working, isn't it?
Thanks

You can flash Gingerbread from Samsung. If you want to flash anything customized, like Overcome rom, you need to do it through humberos kernel, made for our latin tabs.

Yes, you loose root. Then you can just flash humberos' cf-root or voodoo lagfix kernel to get root back. Overcome is very good and stable. Just remember to replace the zImage file inside Overcome's zip file with HumberOS' kernel voodoo lagfix.

Do you suggest me to read anything else than [Jun27][GSM][Kernel][Gingerbread][P1000L/N]?

That's it. Read the last page of the thread. rlkalves just flashed Gingerbread.
Always use original USB cable from Samsung for flashing. Don't use USB HUBs. Make sure you have a good tight USB port, make sure your Windows and USB Drivers are all 100% and close all software to run ODIN or Heimdall ALONE.

Thanks alroger for all help provided.
I did install Overcome Hermes but overlooked the fact that there is still not usb connection to pc. Al sd cards and browse.though from kies i am able to get into internal and external
What is the procedure to go to another gb rom like Jupiter?
Is it a matter of repackaging the Jupiter's zip with latest zImage from first post and install via sd card with Recovery Cwm mode?
Restart from begining with stock Froyo?
Wait for Humberto to work on it?
For CM7?
From hermes do i directly
Download CM7 Beta
Uncompress .zip file and replace zImage.
Use Heimdall to flash it.

[Q] is Milestone 2 locked down more than Droid 2?

I thought this was the case back during Milestone 1 days but I thought Droid 2 and Milestone 2 were pretty much same in terms of boot-loader.
Now Droid 2 has official cyanogen support and milestone dev seems to be pretty much stagnated.
Just wondering why that would be?
droid 2 has official cm support? I dont think so. Im afraid cm team only support devices with unlockable bootloaders?
milo 2 is as locked as defy and maybe as droid2(some people reported droid2 roms working on milo 2? without radio support, of course). If we dont have cm7, it's just because the lack of developers working on milo 2.
As more developers start working with milo 2, cm7 will come.

Yes droid 2 has official CM support in the works (just like defy).
you can see it in this patch:

Droid2 and Motorola Jordan (Defy)
Thanks
So, droid 1 isnĀ“t officially supported?
The original Droid has been supported by Cyanogenmod for a while. There is a list of offical devices on their front page (no Droid2, so it does need updating).

Hi all
I have the standard u8800 X5 and have managed to recover it after two weeks after bricking it quite properly. The question I have is that I am unable to get the official GB update to install correctly over the stock Froyo Rom.
I had the phone running on the official GB for a number of years unmodified without problems until I rooted the phone for the first time.
In an attempt to fix it I managed to remove the OS completely (I know I know). I have finally managed to recover the phone by flashing the stock 2.2.2 B138 rom. Next I attempted to upgrade to to the official 2.3.5 B526 I downloaded from the huawei site. Every time after it installed it boot looped. I would do a factory reset and the phone would work. At next restart it would have multiple error messages about processes unable to start and would reboot into a loop.
Eventually I flashed oxygen 2.3.7 over the froyo, which is stable.
I have root access and CWM 5.0.2.6 installed.
Please help as I would like to install a newer Rom like Aurora ICS or CM10, what do I need to do to get it right?
Thanks in advance.

Upgrading from rooted a500 android 4.0.1 to 4.4 or higher if possible

Hi there helpful bunch out there its me with maybe and somehow a boring question for most of you but for me much guidance is needed. Here is what I have and then what I would like to accomplish.
I bought originally a packerd bell liberty tab g100 with stock android 3.something installed. As soon as Acer came with the ICS upgrade for the iconia a500, which is the same tab as you all ofc know, I installed that update with a very simple guide. Now year(s) later, and yes this brick isn't the best around but can't afford anything else so first would like a fresh install and second a upgrade while at it.
Now, I looked much on XDA and found a lot of text that made my head hurt and which I bravely tried to follow that guide but somehow it didn't work.
So now I have android 4.0.1 rooted and I would like to go to android 5 if that's even possible ofc.
Hope you smart people can help me to overcome this hurdle. Tnx
