Running a 16GB Sandisk class 4 card, about 4GB free. Before the official AT&T nodo update, my phone was restarting a couple of times per day. Post update, my phone has been up 1 day 19 hours (so far) without a restart.

File this in the "for what it's worth" department: an acquaintance of mine works on the phone 7 application team at MSFT. He told me that the MSFT LG team had made a bunch of fixes to the SD driver, but the Samsung team was on a different release schedule and was not able to pick up the fixes for the original Focus release, but rather they were picked up in the nodo release. Given my results and the results I am reading about, this makes sense.
[Focus General] FishFaceMcGee:
Comparing my WP BENCH storage speed before and after the samsung update, it increased by over a MB/s. I also have not noticed any stuttering or anything like that.
[Focus General] jkimrey:
The next test would be to benchmark a non-certified card against the 8gb AT&T certified card to see if there are any noticeable speed differences...

That would be GREAT info. :)
[Focus General] TOA Duck:
I can confirm that the Transcend 16gb class 6 card still does not work after nodo. It will not even boot up after formatting the card and starting the phone.

Will you guys reply with what card you have IF the Nodo update IMPROVED your card (model, class, size and everything)
[Focus General] daniel_leavitt2000:
I was having problems with my Kingston 16GB C4 card, and ended up having to do a hard reset without the chip to get the NoDo update. After reading a few comments here, I added the old card and did a new hard reset. Now I have the full 22GB, but the phone wasn't remembered by Zune like it was last time. On the plus side, it looks like NoDo and the firmware are now baked in so no worries about loosing these when resetting the phone.

Anyway I'll reload all my stuff which could take weeks and I'll let you know what happens.

[The Kingston 16GB C4 card was one of the more stable cards out there. I believe only the SanDisk 8GB, SanDisk 16GB and Samsung 16GB cards worked better. I have not lost any data with the Kingston card before NoDo, but it would be slow enough to prevent me from opening some programs ocationally. I would also get a random reboot every few days.]
[Focus General] FishFaceMcGee:
16 GB Samsung from Nikolai on eBay. I think it's a Class 2, but I don't remember.
[Focus General] HoHoHoHo:
I have the microcenter 16GB Class 2 card loaded to 3GB free. Never had problems before Nodo, still no problem now after Nodo.
[Focus General] MartyLK:
Same with mine...no issues or slowdowns or glitches of any kind. Still using the same 16GB class 4 card, too.
[Focus General] jodywallin:
I purchased the new, Windows Phone approved Microsd card at AT&T before the NoDo update arrived. It installed fine, worked great before and after the update. It's an 8 GB Sandisk, Class 4 card. Everything is working great.
[Focus General] knwldg0010:
I jsut posted this on another thread, but it fits here too.

I just tested my Sandisk 32gb class 2 card and it screwed everything up. I had to re-establish my phone with the Zune software, then i had to sign into my phone again. Now i can't add email accounts to my phone. Tried to revert back to my backup, and now it is not showing. I'm assuming because i had to re-establish my phone with the Zune software. If i revert i will lose homebrew and Unlock, right? Does anybody know how to bring back the backup again in zune? What are my options? Problem occured over the 10gb mark.
[Focus General] MRWRANGLERS1:
When i got my focus , i removed the sandisk 8 gig card from my Fuze and put it in my focus and have not had a single problem from the git go. and i originally ordered it from the cell phone shop . com. lol guess i was just one of the lucky few.
[Focus General] MardiG:
Kingston 32GB Class 4

My Kingston 32GB Class 4 SDHC has worked well from day one with the exception that only half of the capacity can be used.

Once the Device holds around 20 GB of data the phone reboots when trying to add more.

As we approached the Nodo update, I had hopes that this barrier would go away, but alas after Nodo, I still cannot use the full capacity of the card. It exhibits the same behavior after filling to around 20 GB of data.

Has anyone had success with a 32 GB card that allows access to the full 40 GB available? If so, which card?
[Focus General] TOA Duck:
again as I have said earlier, the sandisk 32 gb card class 2 works flawlessly. I have had it full with only 4 gb's free for 3 weeks. Bought mine from att store.

They are also sold on amazon
[Focus General] gahbmwm5:
Personally, I have had no issues with v7390 NoDo update, and currently have a Patriot SD 16GB class 4 card in...Have loaded up music, podcasts...past internal 8GB memory, no performance loss, random reboots at all...freezes.

Samsung Focus Rev. 1.3

{Patriot advertises this card being marketed specifically for Focus...FWIW}
[Focus General] PaullikesWINMO:
I'm buying this card tonight if there are any left.

http://www.futureshop.ca/en-CA/prod...spx?path=53f07f2a1ed3dfd176e60862966939fden02

Will report sometime this weekend if it's working. I have just over 16GB of music so the space on the card will definately get used.
[Focus General] TOA Duck:
You can get a class 4 16gb at walmart for 4 dollars less.
[Xperia Arc General] hpsauce37:
I did some video recording today in bright sunny conditions and when i went to watch the clip back the video stutters at times and also the sound is out of sync.

Handset is sim free and standard with the standard 8gb card that came with the phone.

Anyone else getting this?

I am sure i have read somewhere about video recording problems with other handsets where the class of memory if not high enough i.e 6 plus that there are issues recording in hd.

any ideas?
[Xperia Arc General] Mano1982:
Turn off "Image stabilizer" in video & capture video again :) Hope it works
[Xperia Arc General] AdamUpNorth:
I don't have the link handy but there is an audio sync issue on the arc that becomes more noticeable the longer the recording is. It was reported to SE support. Hopefully a fix will be released.
[Xperia Arc General] maryolet:
Here is a link

yeah i have the same problem and you can se other peoble with the same problem on this link go to talk.sonyericssondotcom
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
someone on another thread in here (think it might have been commodoor) suggested that it might be related to low internal storage.. I've installed "auto memory manager" which tweaks the andoid mem manager to keep more memory free - rather than killing active tasks - since I did that I haven't seen the problem (YET)!!.. have you noticed if you get this problem when you have low memory available?
[Xperia Arc General] hpsauce37:
thanks for all the replys

Well i have very vew apps installed on the phone at the moment but will check where they are stored and move them to the memory card if that is thought to help.

The video clip itself was only about 3mins max in length so that really shouldnt be an issue should it?

I will also try it with the image stabalizer off if thats thought to help.
[Xperia Arc General] commodoor:
I said it somewhere. again i had this when i just got my phone. But it can also happen if you have a slow sd card. Slow sd card was the problem at Nexus forum when we where able to record 720p with the nexus. it looks like the same issue. But with the standard delivered cd card ishould work great. i use a class6 16GB card so no issues with that.

Are you using the standard delivered sd card with your arc?

what also can happen is that you have to use the phone a while like couple of days ti get everything working right (so the dalvik-cache can build). after couple of days it will work great.
[Xperia Arc General] hpsauce37:
just noticed that the standard card i have is only a class2

that cant be right is it?
[Xperia Arc General] vincent.hsy:
Yes, that's right :)

My Arc and Desire HD came with Class 2 cards too.
[Xperia Arc General] hpsauce37:
seems very low for a device to record hd to?
[Xperia Arc General] commodoor:
It is low indeed. i don't knwo why they put a class2 card, class4 would be a lot better.
[Xperia Arc General] vegetaleb:
I am using VGA modes now because of that :(

Hope it's only a matter of sdhc class...
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
pretty sure that class 2 should be quick enough to support HD recording...

EDIT - Depends on the compression rate - but Class 2 supports upto 2MB/s (16Mb/s) and most 720p, compressed, is likely to be less than 10Mb/s.. so should be fine.
[Xperia Arc General] gunawan-1:
Never had this kind of issue.video recording just fine. I usually upload to facebook.although I convert and resize it first.but both still fine

[Xperia Arc General] d4rkwind:
Keep having this problem with every video I record is starting to really annoy me.
[Xperia Arc General] kiz1983:
im also having this problem.. but only with 720p recording.. no prob if using other settings..
[Xperia Arc General] ransflyer:
I get camera freeze on mine with a class 10 32gb card :-(

Sent from Galaxy Tab.
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
have you tried clearing the internal phone memory before you record? I suspect that it's the way the system is caching and then writing out to SD, rather than the SD card speed.. If the Camera has more internal memory available then it may be ok? I did you couple of tests and it seemed ok.. (currently using Free Memory Manager - which manages the system using the in build memory manager, rather than killing tasks indiscriminantly.
[Xperia Arc General] errevi:
I also have the problem even with class4 card...
[Xperia Arc General] mtechfan:
I am using the stock provided Class 2 16GB card with no problems.

I use Auto Task Killer so I have a good amount of RAM available always.
[Xperia Arc General] herasymcuk:
I have the same problem too. :( My ARC is from UK with 184 fw ver.

I changed the 8GB class 2 SD with a 16GB class 6, but nothing better happened.

My video (720p) my video "jump" :D continuously....expecially at the start....and then after 20/30 seconds. :(

What can it be? I use a task killer to have a lot of free ram....

I'm beginning to think that might depend by some installed app. , because I did not remember the existence of the problem when I did the first camera tests.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tonkadan:
Hi

I'm desperately looking for any Bell mobility stock 1.34.666.5 or Over.

The camera button is not working so I sent my phone to repair but they send it back because I do not have the right rom that was provided with my phone. I was able to unroot and put back 1.34.666.1 (the only one that is available it seems) but the technical support told me that my phone shipped with 1.34.666.5 and that they can't do anything unless I'm putting back this rom.

I tried getting OTA updates for 1.34.666.1 but it's not available. Minimum rom # to get OTA updates have to be 1.34.666.5

I'm screwed.

Regards
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theSpam:
I have a nandroid backup of the stock ROM...it's rooted though.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tonkadan:
Will I be able to flash using Clockwork Recovery? I can manage to remove root after flashing, I think.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theSpam:

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theSpam:
...and it's up.

https://xda:developers@66.23.232.13/_xda/Bell.DZ.Stock.ROOTED.7z

Some notes:

- I only included the system and boot portions of the nandroid backup due to privacy concerns

- As such, you should do a system and boot restore (after a full wipe, of course) under "Advanced Restore"

- As mentioned earlier, this is rooted (so you'll need to unroot)

Hope this helps. Let us know how it goes.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tonkadan:
Good news, I have been able to return to stock 1.34.666.5. Thank you very much for your backup.

I was thinking going unrooted was to be easy but i'm a little bit stuck.

How can I unroot and put back stock bootloader without flashing a new rom.

If I have to flash a new rom, is there a way to build one based on the backup you provided?

I've look at software update and there's an OTA update available for my phone. I tried to install but because I do not have the right bootloader (I think that's the problem) I'm unable to do the OTA update.

Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theSpam:
That's good to hear. I'd recommend making your own nandroid backup immediately.

As for the bootloader, you're sure you flashed the ENG HBOOT during the rooting process? If that's the case, I'm not sure where you can find the stock HBOOT...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tonkadan:
Yes, I installed the Eng HBoot.

I'm trying now renaming the OTA update.zip, put on the root of sdcard and make recovery to install that update but I got an error about getprop CID?? and the update failed...

Still looking for a solution.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clarkie30:
How did you make out Tonkadan? I'm in the same boat. I heard that if you did apply this update that you would not be able to root your phone anymore.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tonkadan:
I' still rooted. I'm unable to go back to stock. I'm using cyanogenmod 7 for now but would really want to go back to stock if somone have the official Bell rom over 1.34.666.5.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tonkadan:
... Or any way to get OTA updates for RUU 1.34.666.1 that is available on shippedroms.com

I am very interested in buying the eee pad transformer when it is released in north america.

To anybody that has one now, can you tell me how good or bad is the range of the wifi for the transformer? How strong is the wifi signal while going around your house?

I am asking those questions as the wifi range of my Notion Ink Adam sucks. Big time.

I don't have the ADAM any more, but the ASUS seems to compare with the iPAD. I went to the furthest part of my house and both devices had signal, where sometimes my laptop machine can struggle.

Maybe someone else can give a more scientific analysis with actual figures :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xBRx-Blackout:
It also depends on whether you have a "g" or "n" router, as well as being faster the frequency for an "n" router is stronger and travels further.

You should be fine. Depending on how is lagfix is set up it may ask you to "accept new configuration" and try to convert back to rfs, but just "delete new config" and keep the ext4 settings you have and it should be fine.

If it doesn't work, then at least you tried and can just clean wipe it up.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] adrynalyne:
Hey folks,

I am giving two kernels out to test. Don't worry, both are quite stable. However, I am looking at some different settings to see which gives better battery life. So, in an effort to avoid any "placebo effect" results, I am not saying which settings these are just yet.

What I am looking for, if you folks could be so kind as to check:

Battery life between the two.

Performance between the two.

Neither of these kernels are overclocked.

Please test using the same governor between both, preferably Ondemand.

Thanks!!!

[Thunderbolt Android Development] SubliminalME:
I would love to help test, but I'd like to know if you have any good criteria for the testing. It's really hard to test something without any guidelines as maybe you end up using the phone more on one, or downloading or whatever, and both seem like 'moderate usage', but in reality they are quite different.

As a matter of fact, I'm having a hard time verifying the current draw on my phone, and knowing what is good or not good, in general.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] adrynalyne:
Just use your phone as you normally would, for both.

How can you really tell how much better the battery life is in such a short amount of time to test?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] THATTON:
This reminds me of a test that kmobs did back in the day for kernels on the nexus. Turned out that heavily undervolting the kernel has a negative impact on battery life. Where's jlevy at. I know he remembers.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] THATTON:
Lol, that was quick. I'm thinking he wants testing to go a little more than 30 minutes with each.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] nerozehl:
I'll test out A for 12 hours and B for 12 hours, if you think that's suffiecent. That should get me through a full charge on each.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] adrynalyne:
Should be sufficient.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jlevy73:
That's correct. Stock voltage for the Nexus One was 975mV. Kmobs found that undervolting below 950mV had negative impacts on battery life.
