What is the other script you are using?
[Nexus S Android Development] grubynawro:
#!/system/bin/sh

mount -o rw -t tmpfs tmpfs /data/data/com.aurorasoftworks.quadrant.ui.standard

busybox mount -o remount,rw -t rootfs /
# sh /system/bin/userinit.sh

This one, it is in SuperAOSP thread too.
[Nexus S Android Development] BrokenWall:
Link to this post in SuperAOSP, It looks like your tricking Quadrant to run in a faster temp storage or RAM to boost the Database scores, then in that case it would be somewhat cheating as not all application run in this method

Example: Your score on left and Simms on right (notice how your I/O score is much higher then his)

with an SOC the RAM speed and graphics are usually affected by an increase in the core CPU speed of the SOC, hence why and overclock like this will usually result in higher 3D and Memory scores.
[Nexus S Android Development] grubynawro:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=12666696

So, why ogdobber add this to his kernels?

I/O is better because of cache size, isn't it? My Nexus not allow me to OC over 1300mhz, so I can't test 1600, maybe simms will try this and score new record?
[Nexus S Android Development] j_r0dd:
That explains why lol. That **** is a hack to cheat quadrant!
[Nexus S Android Development] BrokenWall:
So what this script is doing is this

Mounting Quadrant to have Read-Write file system in TMPFS (Basically RAM Disk running on the phone ram) then when the application is running it is running completely in RAM to allow for faster speeds during the Database system.

This allows that Stock 1Ghz kernel to look faster then the overclocked kernels because of this mod, when in doubt it is only boosting your Quadrant scores to make you think it really is much faster then the stock kernel.

We use to do this kind of thing when benchmarking PCs using PCMark, we would run a RAMDisk and tell PCMark to use the RAMDisk as its hard drive for testing OS loading and other various benchmarks. Its just a tweak to get a higher score but in no way improves the overall performance of your phone. And doing this also technically negates the SD Tweak so you are seeing no improved performance if there is any from this tweak.
[Nexus S Android Development] jlevy73:
I'm sure your intentions are good but the script makes your quadrant score faster than it should. It's known as the "quadrant hack" and many developers include that in their rom to artificially boost scores.
[Nexus S Android Development] grubynawro:
LOL... I didn't know that... I deleted this from Scripter, score from quadrant is around 2800. F**k the hack!
[Nexus S Android Development] j_r0dd:
i am sure you didn't know any better. not your fault lol
[Nexus S Android Development] droidmage:
So all you guys who cant seem to get this to stick, I just extracted the zip and put the 77sdcardspeedfix in /system/etc/init.d thats all the zip does anyway
[Nexus S Android Development] xpooz:
if this is a benchmark hack and not doing any speed improvement to your phone, I can tell I have a Nexus One and I flashed this tweak, my Nexus One really boosted up.. I can feel so fast when I am browsing pictures in Gallery.

But, I still cant get this work on my Nexus S...
[Nexus S Android Development] tsunami1609:
I get 8, 27 without the SD trick:D. I wonder if I really need this.
[Nexus S Android Development] grubynawro:
What rom do you have?
[Nexus S Android Development] suksit:
1024 seems to be the optimized value for my Nexus S. However, the speed is not dramatically improved like others in this thread.

FYI, I did 5 tests on each setting and calculate the average speed. My results are as follow:

Value / Write (MB/s) / Read (MB/s)

128 / 8.24 / 30.44

256 / 8.70 / 33.64

512 / 8.58 / 35.52

1024 / 8.66 / 36.64

2048 / 8.74 / 36.04

3072 / 8.33 / 36.03

4096 / 8.43 / 35.80
[Nexus S Android Development] YDardeer:
After 10 test for each speed (50 tests total), here are my results

128 | 1024 | 2048 | 3072 | 4096
read/write | read/write | read/write | read/write | read/write
8.8/30.8 | 8.7/33.5 | 8.5/37.4 | 8.4/35.8 | 8.6/33.7
8.9/31.9 | 8.5/31.8 | 8.7/38.2 | 9.9/34.7 | 8.7/33.0
8.4/31.5 | 8.6/36.4 | 8.3/37.3 | 8.6/35.4 | 8.5/36.5
8.6/31.6 | 8.6/37.3 | 8.6/38.5 | 8.5/33.0 | 9.3/36.9
8.5/32.1 | 8.4/36.9 | 8.5/36.9 | 8.5/33.2 | 8.9/34.6
8.3/31.8 | 8.6/28.4 | 8.6/40.2 | 8.8/35.5 | 8.8/33.0
8.7/30.9 | 8.7/39.2 | 8.6/42.0 | 8.4/36.9 | 8.6/33.0
8.7/34.5 | 8.7/37.7 | 8.4/37.5 | 8.7/35.9 | 8.5/36.4
8.4/31.5 | 8.6/38.5 | 8.4/41.9 | 8.7/33.3 | 8.8/32.6
8.5/30.3 | 8.7/37.6 | 8.6/41.4 | 8.6/34.6 | 8.4/35.0

it looks like 2048 is the best size for my Nexus S. The lowest read value was higher than the highest read when using 3072 or 4096. Write values seems fairly the same with all different sizes. a difference of 0.2 - 0.4 MB isn't that big of deal.

However, Quadrant score didn't change much, 2148. Isn't that weird???
[Nexus S Android Development] TheMathMan:
Tried on Armani S.

All settings including 128 up to 4098 give a read speed of ~13MB.

No major changes??
[Nexus S Android Development] tsunami1609:
I use the stock 2.3.3 Deodexed Rom with Netarchy 1.3.0.2
[Nexus S Android Development] heeheehahahohoho:
Ok, so I tried all 4 tweaks.

The first 3 didn't give much change, speed fluctuated @ W:4.5-5 and R:16-17.

When I finally got to 4096, writing went up to 6 - ok, no big deal, more likely due to another sway.

But just when I was about to give up, I decided to run one last test anyways.....

and then things happened......:eek:

my writing speed didn't get doubled, it..... tripled :confused::confused::confused:

And btw my sd card is an Imation 4GB class 4 and, I'm using nexus one:D

[Epic 4G General] herbthehammer:
I've searched the forum, and if there was an answer, it wasn't obvious. I've read a few pages of posts both in q & a and general and still didn't see anything. I've ran searches on google and didn't find an answer. I've searched the phone and memory card for 91.5mb file and didn't see anything that stuck out. There's nothing unusual that I see on the memory card that looks like an update. There isn't a new file in the root of the sd card. Places I thought I read before where it might download to, I don't see anything. I flashed stock di18 last night and when it booted up and updated the programs, data still continued to flow on the 3g indicator for quite a while. It's bugging the crap out of me to update and reboot but I keep telling it later.

I will continue looking in the forum in the meantime, but does anyone know where the ota would download to and what could the file extension be, if any?

I'm tempted to pull the trigger and let it update but, like many other people have said, I think di18 is the least annoying release so far. I an completely stock and am running temp root and still don't see anything out of the ordinary. I'm starting to think the ota is a bunch of smaller files with an update script for the stock recovery to run.

Any insight?
[Epic 4G General] Top Nurse:
I don't think it dl's to the sd card but the system cache file. You need an app like Root Explorer to get into the right directories of the phone. Try looking around in /cache

I'm gonna be visiting London in a few days and plan on using my Tmo US Nexus S on a pay-as-you-go SIM card.

I know 3G is out of the question, but so far as using a data plan on EDGE goes, does anyone know which provider offers the best coverage in the city? I've tried Tmo UK once on an unlocked iPhone 3G and the signal was spotty at best, so I'm hoping for better luck this time around.

MSM7227 S1Boot has been patched to ignore SIN header signature by the_laser.

You need phone which you either did not unlock by cable, or phone which you unlocked via SEtool2 only.

If you unlocked with Omnius, in C:\ProgramData\Omnius for SE\Backups\Xperia X8

you have file called: Xperia X8_IMEI_DATE_SIMLock.opd

Restore that TA backup, then use semc.cmd in the_laser's release to unlock bootloader - you'll restore SIM lock this way!

Currently there is no unlocked bootloader for Omnius unlocked phones.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedracerbubba:
A few weeks ago my evos data became ridiculously slow. I was the latest stable cm6 (6.1.2 iirc) and it was out of nowhere since I did not install any new apps or make any changes. I did a nandroid back to when I first rooted and I still had no 3g (wifi, bluetooth, wimax, 1x all work).

The tech I talked to at Sprint had me try updating everything and even a factory reset (which I already tried before calling). I have Best Buys phone insurance (never again. Sprints is much better after having to use both at one point or another) so I took it to best buy and when I get my phone home the data and phone are slow. After a few days I notice in ##debug# evdo engineering has <failed> on everything and I was running 3.26.xx.x I just ran the ruu to the latest 3.70 and it is snappy again but still no 3g.

Once I get time I am going to take it to the sprint repair center but I am curious if anyone else has had this problem. A search on here and Google doesn't come up with anything.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougjamal:

Ask them to do a full profile reset or update. They ask you to power the phone off for a few min (they even asked me to pull the battery, but I didn't see a need for that). Then when it reboots, it will do the ota provisioning, which should correct things.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedracerbubba:
They did that as well. The tech said it was basically like a new line.

It is odd because every other thread I see online has had it fixed by one of the common methods or by calling sprint.

I have a tux fitting tomorrow for my brothers wedding and the sprint service center isn't too far from that so I should be able to get it checked out then.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smurph82:
It may be Sprint and their network. A lot of people have been stating that they are either getting really fast speeds or really slow speeds. If I understood everything correctly I think that Sprint is going through several updates for a while to be more competitive and provide better service. It may not be your phone. If you have any friends with the same phone then does a speed test to the same server side by side and see if that is different. If the results are the same it is the network, but if the other phone is faster then it is your phone that is having the problems.

Just spent 45 mins trying to download a Google voicemail. No dice. That's how bad sprint 3G is in downtown Chicago. It is pretty much unusable. After calling Sprint and getting nowhere as usual, I am done and want out of my contract (this is not a bash sprint thread - just the facts).

I really don't feel like paying the ETF considering I can't use something I am paying for. I was thinking of just filing a small claims lawsuit (not a lawyer or anything - but had a friend who did something similar). It takes about an hour to file (I think) and costs $75. I don't believe sprint would bother fighting it - they would prob just contact me to settle (I want out of contract sans ETF and they pay court fees). It sure would get their attention if a bunch of people started doing this.

Viable? Looking for opinions - never done anything like this before and I figure if nothing else it would be a learning experience. Judge Wapner here I come! :)
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
Here's my suggestion.

I'm assuming that you've called Sprint more than once and thus it is in the notes, right?

Call *2, dial 000000000 until it moves you along.

And explain that because you aren't getting the service you're promised you want out of your contract with no fee.

They will extend that to you. They have to because they aren't fulfilling their end of the contract. They actually extended that to me although I'm not cancelling.

[EVO 4G General] Sunsparc:
It states in your contract that they have the authority to assess an ETF upon termination of contract, tower and throughput issues are not valid nullification points.

If you take them to small claims, they'll just wave your contract in your face and be done.

In all seriousness, just escalate as far as it needs to go. Retentions will do just about anything, save for waiving ETF.
