[HTC Inspire 4G] gk527:
Just ordered my Inspire 4G. I'm coming from the Captivate. I can't wait for a functioning GPS. :D

I was going to wait until the Infuse came out until I saw today that DG / Design Gears ditched the Atrix and picked up the Inspire. Can't wait to see what he can do with it. I ran both Cog and Perception on my Captivate. However I'm currently running Serendipity.

Now to pick a custom Inspire ROM to go with... :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] cappyandroid:
You won't need it~

Unless if you're into MIUI, stock works just fine! If you're itching for the extra features, Android Development has a bunch of reoriented stock with better speeds.

Cheers on your new Inspire!
[HTC Inspire 4G] buddy17:
a fellow UK fan...nice to see! Do you go to UK??

and that is awesome news about DG coming to the Inspire. I felt like Captivate section really slowed down when he left. He did some big things for the Atrix, so i definitely can't wait to see what he brings to the table for the Inspire.
[HTC Inspire 4G] gk527:
I'm the type that can't leave stuff alone. I'm always willing to try something new. I'll probably leave it as stock for a little while just to make sure I'm going to keep it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] MartyLK:
Hi, enjoy your Inspire! You made an excellent choice.I just got mine also. I'm loving it. I won't install a custom ROM but I might root this one...not sure, though.
[HTC Inspire 4G] gk527:
A big UK fan. No, I didn't go to UK. However I'm thinking about going back to school, and that's where I'd go.

I agree. Once DG focused on the Atrix, the Captivate forums slowed down. He's got a ROM already in the works for the Inspire that's being beta tested.
[HTC Inspire 4G] alex4lex:
How bout that john wall guy? Oh wait... anyway congrats on the upgrade :-) you'll be surprised @ how smooth it is out of the box... and now we have di11igaf, adamholden, DG... good time to be an inspire user :cool:
[HTC Inspire 4G] buddy17:
thats awesome...can't wait to try it out. Its weird because with my captivate, i started out with DG's roms, then moved to Adam's roms, and ended up sticking with dill1's roms towards the end.

But, i assure you, coming from the captivate you will be VERY pleasantly surprised with how amazing this phone is out of the box. I thought it was going to be a little sluggish when i was setting it up, but once i used it for awhile and things fell into place, it has been amazing. the Sense UI is downright amazing, and i can finally see what all the hype is about.
[HTC Inspire 4G] eramming:
I'm still trying to talk myself in to swapping my cappy out but I can't do it. Its been 5 days since my wife got her inspire and the complaints I have so far are the speakerphone stinks so much static on both ends and the volume is quite low on full blast. No swype.My cheek hangs up the phone alot. For some reason the screen turns on midcall and my cheek touches the call button?? When we aren't hanging up on people its constantly dropping calls. No 4g coverage.Its heavy. the battery life is less than desirable and that damn battery cover has taken 2 years off my life. It only has 8gb out of the box,ill have that filled in 10 minutes.as far as gps it does perform ok not great,but it will never outperform my tom tom. I think ill wait for the infuse 4g to arrive and see if that is enough for me to upgrade. My wife is fairly happy with it so its up to her if she wants to keep it so I guess my feelings on it are meaningless!
[HTC Inspire 4G] acPIZZA:
sounds like a bad unit. I am experiencing none of those issues.
[HTC Inspire 4G] D-REW:
Yeah I don't have that many problems with my phone either. There are audio fixes in the development section that can fix the speaker issue. Other than that, after I switched to TCPs rom, my battery would last me more than a day oppose to 3/4 of a day.
[HTC Inspire 4G] MartyLK:
The low volume issue is related to some kind of adaptive program. If you notice, the sound will be low in the very beginning, then it will increase to a louder state. I haven't discovered the settings for it yet, though. Tried checking/unchecking the pocket mode and quiet ring on pickup but didn't make any difference.

The battery door is super tight on mine also. But I don't mind it, myself. It feels very secure. I've decided to just get a dock to conveniently charge it instead of changing out batteries...lol

The 8GB card is a class 4 instead of a crappy class 2. That is a plus in my book. But I still have a 16GB ordered.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gerle:
An easy fix. Sign up for swype beta, my wife has swype on her Inspire.
[HTC Inspire 4G] eramming:
See,i knew I came to xda for a reason! Best site on the interwebs!
[HTC Inspire 4G] hdk703:
I was going to create my own epic bread, but seeing as how this was already on the front page I figured I'd jump in as well.

JUST ORDERED MY HTC INSPIRE 4G. To put things in perspective, I'm currently using a Samsung Mythic (Nubbins-ville USA) and this is my first true experience with Android.

I've been scouring, researching into Android for at least a year now and have finally made the jump. Much like other people on this forum, I definitely struggled with the decision between the Atrix and Inspire. To be honest, when the Atrix was first promoted I was sold on the spot. After release and all the horror stories, I guess I could say that I was swayed I bit.

Either way, I'll definitely be posting around these boards a lot more. Can't wait!

Here is a thread that seems to be making the rounds throughout the forums...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1010807

Following the guidelines in the thread, here are my results with CM7 using a Kingston 8GB Class 6 card...

Before:

Write - 6.6 MB/s

Read - 15.2 MB/s

After:

Write - 5.8 MB/s

Read - 94.4 MB/s

I would recommend playing with the values to see what works best for your particular SD card... Not quite sure

if it is a placebo type effect, but apps like the Gallery and games that use the SD card are noticeably faster...

Have fun...
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
I did extensive testing on a patriot class 10 8gb card today.

I had lowest standard deviation on results using 1024 buffer. I also had the highest reads at that buffer with a higher write speed.

I had the highest write speed at 4096, but the read speeds were slower than 1024.

I rebooted several times to make sure that wasn't playing into it, and reran many test. All results were relatively consistent.

~11.6 write

~86 read

@1024

~11.9 write

~79.4 read

@4096

~10.8 write

~71.9 read

@128

The change wasn't huge for me. Most have reported 2048 as the best setting.

Also, I updated my cm7_mod to include this. Working on making it installable w/ the scripting...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1008612

It's only meant to be used with cm7_tablet_tweaks as a base now.
[Nook Color Android Development] Jaostar:
Couldn't such a buffer size setting be usefull for emmc (internal memory) too ?

I'm using dalingrin's OC kernel with the IO issue, and it feels slower than my SD card...
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
I've commited this tweak already today. I would be interested to find the optimal value for mmcblk0.

My current kernel should not have any IO issues.
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
Instructions for tweaking the emmc are in that thread. I wouldn't mind taking the time to test and crunch the numbers but sd tools only wants to test my SD card.

EDIT:

App called J Disk Benchmark 2.0 can test internal memory. Working on testing now.

Uhm... my SD card tests faster...
[Nook Color Android Development] knaries2000:
I hope people don't go over board and incorporate this type of permformance increases in their roms by default based on bench mark tools. there is value in increasing readahead for some access patterns, mainly when doing lots of sequencial reads. the trade off of course is at the expense of memory usage. nook even with its 500mb of memory is still not considered high in memory. setting the readahead to 2mb is quite aggressive and will work well in some work loads like galary when reading lots of files around 2mb in size while in other work loads it may actually have negative affects. I am not saying that this specific tweak is bad because I haven't done any tests myself, but don't always believe the numbers u see from benchmark tools.
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
I'm only setting it to 1024k. I feel like that is plenty high.
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
Yes 1024 is what I'm running really gave the best all around performance.

I think I found the internal memory and it's set to 128 by default
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
can't find any real difference between 64 and 4096. That looks like the only other mmc device though, so it must be it.
[Nook Color Android Development] Jaostar:
Yep, it's the same for me, my Class 6 SD card achieves 6,3/11,6 and the internal memory only 4,86/7,52...

BTW :

J Disk Benchmark 2.0 doesn't use the cache, so this tweak wont affect the results...
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
Balls.

I'm going to jack it to 1024 and hope that works then. :D
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
OK, I can't get any meaningful numbers anymore. I think yesterday's test was a fluke. I can't get any real changes from 128 to 4096 (or in between) with fast or slow SD cards, big or small, black or dark black.

The write speed on slower cards is lower (5-6mb/s) and the faster cards are higher (10-12MB/s) and read speed for all is 80-90mb/s.

Maybe this is a performance mod not for us?

Hi all, after several months of stop-n-go development the Android port of my "pride and joy" is nearly complete! 180 (gameplay videos & other info at link) is a very oldschool-style game (Tetris Attack meets Bust-a-Move - sort of), it's done very well on iPhone and we've upgraded it considerably for Android.

Well...I got my first taste of screen burn in. You can slightly see "8pm" in the top right of the phone in portrait position.

What do?
[Epic 4G General] DroidApprentice:
The thing is I can only really see this during a grey-ish screen when one of my games is launching. I also notice that it isn't the same image each time, which leads me to wonder if it isn't less a permanent burn in and more of a temporary "ghosting" after effect.
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
Well I"l give it time to see if its "ghosting" or real burn in.

If its a real burnin, what aremy options?

Also, if it is just a ghost, that's a bad sign isn't it :(
[Epic 4G General] The Root:
Can you get to a load screen that produces black? If you have true screen burn, you'll see it on your Galaxy S boot screen. Option would be replacement. We should be beyond screen burn by now.
[Epic 4G General] BWFBezerk:
I don't think there is screen burn anymore lol
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
Dontthe pixels just shut off when there's a black screen? Isn't that the point of samoled? Lol but nah I just put n64droid on and I couldn't see it, but in the regular notification bar its there

And when I pull the keyboard out its rotated 90 degrees and is in the top left corner

This is after I left my phone off for an hour...

How long does the ghosting effect last? :S
[Epic 4G General] nadcicle:
Maybe it's cause the screen is so bright it burns into your retinas.

If you stare at the screen for 30 seconds then stare at a black wall in your house and watch 8:00pm show up :)
[Epic 4G General] compuw22c:
Actually, it isn't "technically" burn in, but it sorta is (mine does it too). I'll explain.

First, grab "Screen Test" from the market. It cycles through full screen black, white, red, green, and blue (I do video AV work) On white (2nd after black) you will see the clock and am/pm if you're like me and cycle all day through 3 batteries. I use alarm clock plus but it has a screensaver at night, so that's no issue.

You will ALSO notice going through the colors that red and green are fine, blue is burned OUT (not in). See the wikipedia article for the explanation, but basically blue wears out first because of the organic compound it's based on. This is why they don't have amoled tv's yet ;) (that and size). Honestly, I dont't think it'll ever get terrible before I'm ready to upgrade, although as a video engineer I certainly see it every time now that I'm aware of it. But really, I still like it better than lcd. And let's be honest, most people that are on here that are smart enough to notice probably are too gadget-addicted to keep the device long enough for it to be anything more than a "Hey, is that a clock I can barely see in that corner that just happens to be all white right now?"

What IS funny (and really cool I think) is the fix, is gingerbread ;P no, seriously, hear me out, the clock is green isn't it? Green lasts much longer than blue, (red lasts longer than green, but who wants a red clock?) So you wouldn't be using the blue subpixels at all. Of course that won't REVERSE the damage but it will slow/stop it from continuing.

(And yes, I do realize simple theming would also accomplish this :P)

he states "However, we hope that this is a useful service for advanced developers, and demonstrates that Sony Ericsson is listening to and working with the open developer world." i just love that. we need to keep shoving this to moto and soon htc to follow sony instead of moto dumbo.

wish it was this easy... why couldnt they go this route? moto , soon to be htc, etc?

it should be like. you sign a paper saying your going to root your device install custom rom and won't use tether. if i mess my phone up MY phone i take all responsibilities for it. "or decline warranty for this purpose even factory warr" sign your meid. done. they know what youe doing and keep the bogus warranty and abuser tether down.

-hands you the bootloader keys and have a good day-

BUT its not that easy doh. wish it was :)...

maybe sony would be the next go to android?

p.s. not mean to be rude or so. just wish all phone makers is as easy giong as them and maybe sony got the hint that if they unlock the bootloader. people would jump on thier phone thats = more mula for them! now thats smart thinking
