16GB Stock card....

First Run:

Memory : 13.07mb/s

Storage : 0.14mb/s

Second Run:

Memory : 12.9 mb/s

Storage : 0.19mb/s

Third Run:

Memory : 9.8 mb/s

Storage : 0.13 mb/s

So am I to believe that the 'Memory' test was for reading and the 'Storage' was for writing?

If this is the case, these damn cards are as defective as could be. I know 2 other guys with Venue Pro 16 GB and they both have the same problem.

How the hell do they get an entire warehouse of defective cards? Did they buy these things refurbished?

So who's got the best 32gb sd card?

http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820220452&cm_re=32gb-_-20-220-452-_-Product

And will a class 10 word, or does it have to be 2?
[Venue Pro General] zaijian:
Updated my 16gb DVP w/ NoDo to 32gb Sandisk class 2

Did 2 test runs immediately after

1) installing 32gb micro sdhc

2) set up phone

3) set up all my accounts

4) installed 60 apps & games over wifi

5) synced with PC, copying pictures, videos, and songs totalling 11 GB

AND I HAVEN'T FROZEN OR HAD TO REBOOT ONCE!!!

CPU

sequential: 11049, 11068 ms

parallel: 10486, 10322 ms

DATA @ 0.8 MB

memory: 13.07, 13.07 MB/s

storage: 3.27, 3.27 MB/s <-- MUCH IMPROVED!

GPU

23, 22 avg FPS

Also, the ##634# CIT sd card test now shows status 0 OK.

All in all, I'd say the sd card swap was a huge success.

I got a class 4 SanDisk from Amzn and the write speed dropped (from previous 8 GB SanDisk class 4) from 3 MB/s to 0.64 MB/s.

Update: Ok, just reinstalled and re-ran the WP Bench app - and data performance shows 13.07 MB/s for reads and 3.27 MB/s for write. I say the WP Bench app has issues :)
[Venue Pro General] zaijian:
For those interested, I posted about my experience in upgrading to a 32gb card.
[Venue Pro General] eondei:
You´re right. It happens to me as well. I have a Samsung Focus, NoDo installed (with Chevron.Updater), and a Sandisk 16Gb Class 4 loaded with 13Gb.

The storage speed varies from 0,18 to 4.9mb/s but the higher speeds (above 3mb/s) I only got during the first 3 or maybe 4 times running Wp Bench.

Nevertheless, the usage of my device has no lags at all, even when WP Bench shows a slow storage speed.

So, I think that this odd speed variation is due to a WP Bench´s issue or, even if it doesn´t has an issue, the way that WP7 manages the device´s memory is causing this odd behavior on WP Bench´s speed results.
[Venue Pro General] kartbart:
What I do see - and I've seen others post about it as well is that when you download large apps (Fruit Ninja, Star Wars game, etc), the phone grinds to a halt. I didn't have to pull the battery, but I did have to do a power-off/on. I noticed that leaving the phone in the download screen helps - takes a looooong time to download but it does eventually finish.

Don't know if DVP firmware or Mango or something else is needed to address this.

I do have 14 of 32 filled.
[Venue Pro General] eondei:
It seems that you´re having a microsd card incompability with your device. Check this thread below where I have recommended a microsd card that doesn´t present any incompability issues like slowness, auto-resets and data loss.

Here's the test results for my custom 32gb DVP w/ FW 212 & Mango 7712

CPU

sequential: 8251 ms (improved from 11055)

parallel: 7792 ms (improved from 10400)

DATA @ 0.8 MB

memory: 13.07 MB/s (same)

storage: 13.07 MB/s (improved from 3.27?!)

GPU

23 avg FPS (same)

Looks like either the new mango or the new FW really boosted my cpu and data/storage scores... anybody else care to share results? I'm interested to see what improved with just the new FW, so if somebody can run the test on NoDo w/ and w/o the new FW that'd be great.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nicgraner:
are you still running stock rom? if so download rom manager from the market, install clockworkmod and flash a cutom rom. if its going to be a froyo (2.2) rom download and flash clockwork 3.0.0.5, if it's going to be a gingerbread rom (2.3) download 2.5.x.x or follow a guide to install 3.0.0.6. root doesn't play nice with stock rom that's why usually when you root you flash a custom rom fairly quickly afterwards.

Hope this helped :D

You can also get superuser off the market.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeverAlwaysEver:
I assume you're using visionary to temp root and permanent root. if root doesn't stick the first time, keep hitting temp root and then permanent root in visionary. Try that. I can tell you brief step by step to get ultimate permanent root and sim unlock but you might go crazy just by reading lol.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codey895:

no offense but i kind of have the feeling your just trying to get to the 10 post cutoff.
[Networking] ah2480:
Actually, I had no idea the cut off was 10 posts. And the reason I know the wireless tether you mention works with a b/g wireless card is because thats is the intended purpose of it. And its the app I use on almost a daily purpose for work.

Just a word of advice, I had issues getting security working with reasonable speed, I ended leaving it disabled.
[Networking] johnston9234:
i believe it was developed for b/g/n but i will take your word for it if no one else comes across

[HTC Inspire 4G] slocav:
This!!!!
[HTC Inspire 4G] buddy17:
i'm switching out my shattered Captivate under insurance for an Inspire as of now (get my inspire tomorrow and could not be more excited haha)

but anyway, this led me to look up a little about the prices/difficulty of screen replacement on the inspire vs captivate. Captivate was possible to replace, but being an OLED screen, it was very expensive (something like 130 bucks or so). Inspire replacement screen is only 60 bucks, but wow, i looked at the teardown video and it is downright INSANE. HTC made it as close to impossible to replace a screen as they could.
[HTC Inspire 4G] acPIZZA:
While having an easily replaceable screen may seem like a huge consumer benefit, I highly doubt the percentage of people that are actually willing and capable to perform a screen replacement are taken into account. I'm sure it is low on the manufacturers list as far as design criteria.
[HTC Inspire 4G] buddy17:
very true....but you also think they would do it to benefit themselves. Think about it, what do you think is the number one service request they get? I'd be willing to bet most of them are cracked screens. I can understand it not being a high on the list of priorities, but if you have watched the DHD teardown video, you would know what i mean lol
[HTC Inspire 4G] Ferrari353:
yeah but their technicians know how to do it and probably do it frequently. They can probably do it a hell of a lot faster than you can because they do it all the time. Now if you do it, you're probably going to have to make sure you're doing every step correctly to make sure you're doing it correctly.

Also, that sucks...I had a gel case on mine, and it was kind of thin, and I was playing doodle jump while I was walking (stupid) and my friend slammed the door on me (as a joke) and I dropped my phone flat on its back, and since the camera sticks out a bit, the round part around the camera got scratched (not the lens, thankfully)

I might replace it eventually because I saw that you can buy the back part for like $35...so if the back gets any more beat up, I'll replace it. I like my phone looking awesome :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] buddy17:
right....:confused:
[HTC Inspire 4G] Ferrari353:
what I'm saying is that since they do it more often, they understand what they need to do and probably don't have trouble with it. It's their specialty, so once they learn how to do it, it's probably quick and easy for them. Making it easier for the consumer probably won't make much of a difference for the technicians.
[HTC Inspire 4G] buddy17:
i know what you meant....it just didn't really apply to what i'm talking about at all. Just because they know how to do it, doesn't make it any easier. It is still a long and very tedious process no matter who you are.

Take an iphone 3g for example. 2 phillips screws and a spudger to remove 3 ribbon cables and you are done. Which do you think a technician would rather do??? Something very long and drawn out, sometimes involving a heat gun to loosen the adhesive holding the screen in the chassis (hence, the EVO) or a couple screws and total time taking less than 5 minutes (even for someone like myself).
[HTC Inspire 4G] thinkhope:
I do. Deductible on it is $125.

I had a white amzer silicone case on it but the fact that it belly flopped on pavement proved to be too much. Just ordered an otterbox for my new inspire. Not taking anymore chances. :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] Ferrari353:
Yeah I guess. Technicians would also have higher end tools most likely.

[Atrix 4G General] maledyris:
What browser are you using? Some browsers like Firefox don't support flash yet. The default Browser, Dolphin HD, and others do support flash.

This might not apply to you, but sometimes when it seems like my flash plug-in isn't started, or maybe it's crashed (ie. a website says "Please install flash"), I run Adobe Showcase which seems to reload it. When I go back into my browser, whatever flash website I was trying to view always seems to work after that.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abels023:
Long story short, I went running with my G2 in my pocket, got pretty wet (indicators are both red) and isn't starting now. I took the battery out for a day and put it in some rice to try to get the moisture out. That improved the original condition because now it turns on, but is stuck on the HTC screen. I can get into the boot loader menu and have tried all the options. I tried downloading the PCMG10 file that someone from TmoNews told me to try and got a little bit of improvement. After I put that on my card and booted in bootloader my computer finally recognized my phone and something poped up with the filename on it.

That is as far as I am. With that file on the memory card my G2 is still stuck on the HTC Screen. Any way to flash it or put on the original software? Advice? Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abels023:

I have S-On if that changes anything. Thanks for the help.

Hey guys, whats up?

Think that some of you must face the same problem as I am.

Due to repeated stress of pressing the buttons, I can feel that they are begining to feel a little mushy...

I tried to find any gesture based app but couldn't find it... Like, if you slice to the left, it would "go back" if you slice up, it would bring menu, etc.

Do you guys know of something like that?

I've been using adw-ex and it opens apps, notification and such but it wont act as the buttons...

Thanks!

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] akpe:
Hello people

I want to use PocketMusic with my new BT earphones, but somehow every time I push a button on the Jabra, the TF3D player kicks in.

The same happens with every other app, sound comes through Jabra as intended, but the controls can only control the TouchFlo player.

Is there any workaround to that?! I've been searching for a while and found nothing.

I'm using stock rom.

A couple of days back I managed to get the headset keys working with PocketMusic, without TouchFlo kicking in, but I can't even remember the steps. Possibly it was random.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] R^7Z:
I'm thinking it could be as easy as a registry edit but for the life of me, I don't know that much about registry editing... :p

Is there an available option to set PocketMusic as the default player? I'm thinking it has something to do with that but I can only think of these possible work arounds as I have no real experience with editing the registry, aside from editing what others have said to edit. Wish I could be of more help...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] akpe:
Well I thought so too, but it turns out it's a matter of drivers..

I found this after hours of searching (again, it was right under my nose!). I really was reluctant to try a 6.5 driver on a stock 6.1 device, but I did and it worked!

Only disadvantage is that it broke Jabra controls with the TouchFlo 3D Music player, but really, who cares :p

I will continue testing it but I don't think it breaks anything else.
[G2 and Desire Z General] kayway27:
title says it all, but just to expand...

my contract just passed the 22 month mark, but im wondering if it would be a smarter idea to get the g2 and see what happens after the potential merger and what promotional deals i could get (if any). or i could be safe and get a g2x and be able to use both frequency bands of att and tmobile. I do realize that the g2x has a dual core, hdmi output, etc, but honestly specs dont matter that much to me; im perfectly content with the g2's good speed. theres also the fact that the g2 has a keyboard, while obviously the g2x does not. i currently have a g1, and i find it hard to switch to virtual keyboards. So guys, input?

reposted from q&a, idk how to delete a thread.
[G2 and Desire Z General] llontop.m:
well, i personally love hard keyboards but after getting use to swype, i can honestly say I can do without a hard keyboard. I'd prefer the g2x simply because it will set you up for the future. I'm waiting for my upgrade and switching to the g2x. I love the g2 and all but soon enough, apps and all will be updated to support multi cores. Plus i think the g2x's screen is better, looks better i mean. Up to you :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] martonikaj:
At this point, the G2 shouldn't even be on your short list of phones to consider. It's old technology. Phones like the G2X and other upcoming dual core superphones like the Galaxy S II (or Galaxy S Pro if you want a keyboard) should be the ones you're looking at.

I see no value in buying a phone that came out in October last year at this point. Don't get me wrong the G2 is an awesome phone and I really like it, but there's no reason to buy this old of a phone with all these great ones coming out.

You just have to ask yourself, could you really see the G2 being relevant this time next year? I think a phone that comes out this month has a much better chance at that.
[G2 and Desire Z General] wileykat:
So little love for the G2 already? I'm shocked.

I have had mine for 5 months or so now but I honestly think If I was to upgrade from my old handset RIGHT NOW, I would either get the still G2 or wait for something else to drop from HTC with a hardware keyboard.

My last handset was a Hero and for the entire 8-10 months I had that I always regretted not getting a G1 ... (a) for the kb.... (b) for the dev support!!!!! There was always more going on with the G1 than the Hero.

I think I'll be content with my G2 for another 12months yet.
[G2 and Desire Z General] scottmog:
My wife just got a phone last week. We went into the tmobile store and personally i dont see anything better then a g2. g2x doesnt even count imo... it isnt in the G family on so many levels.

[G2 and Desire Z General] initial_k:
I have a G2 since December and my girl just got a G2 now. The reason she wanted a G2 was because she was switching to t-mobile and wanted a phone with a keyboard. We decided that the G2 was good enough for her as it was quick for what she does and has swype as well.

She got the G2 for free with no dataplan required so it was a good deal.

Sure a dual core phone would have been nice, but it would be overkill for her. Front facing camera is a nice feature, but she won't be using it much, or even at all. She didn't want to drop $200 for the latest phone and pay $30 dataplan for the next 2 years.

She just love to text, email and go on facebook. She came from an iphone 3G so it was a big upgrade imo.
[G2 and Desire Z General] sino8r:
He using a G1 currently... do you honestly think the G2 is outdated compared to his current phone? It will a GIANT improvement over a G1 and you get to keep the qwerty kb. Trust me, I even fired it up the other day and it was unbearable.... The G2X has nice guts but looks like a plastic pos from LG (typical) and the extra frequency won't freaking matter for 3 years+ The stupid merger will be blocked for a year and a half (at least) and another year and a half before your 3G towers are gone (you still have 2G after that). By that time, 3D phones will be becoming mainstream (or at least more popular) and dual processors will be improved while quads are arriving on tables. The G2 is a good choice for a couple of years. Hell, you can overclock to almost 2GHz! That's plenty fast for now and the near future. The only issue I see is RAM is low compared to newer high end models but the cpu makes up for it with a little OCing...
