I am using a Toshiba 32GB microSDHC HighSpeed Class 4 card. So far I have not experienced any problems.

The old Sandisk 8 GB card, that came with the phone, had produced a window popping up nearly every time I plugged the phone into the computer. Even after cleaning up the card using chkdsk the problem returned a few days later. So I guess changing the card to Toshiba was definitely a good idea.

I formatted it using ClockworkMod and partitioned it also, so that I have 26 GB of FAT, 4 GB of ext4 and some MB (forgot the number, sorry) as swap space.

SD Tools is showing 4.3 MB/s write speed and 15.8 MB/s read speed.

Since SD Tools is freeware (search for sdtools in the market NOT sd tools), maybe everybody who is raving about his SD choice can post his Benchmark results. This way we might get some hard data at least about the performance.

But since I didn't experience any lags so far using my phone (for example my gallery is responding without ANY lag), I don't know if a faster card really makes a difference.

[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] blackknightavalon:
I've had my card for over two months now and I have not once had to reformat any of the partitions. Still loading everything fast, too.

I also mailed the Wintec card to the company after emailing customer service about the data corruption issue. I'm hoping they send me a new card.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Got my replacement Wintec card earlier today and made a backup on the ADATA card. Running the Wintec card and going to see how the partitions hold up.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] blackknightavalon:
After running the new Wintec card for a while, I found it to be far speedier than the ADATA card (which I keep as a constantly-updated backup). I recommend both cards now.

im using aData 32GB microSDHC class 10. so far so good, its fast and not that expensive.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Alipk52:
For me Kingston Class4 is the best, used several cards from several manufacurers, and Kingston is the most consistent when it comes to speed, 2nd one is Advance Media microsdhc its good too, but still am not staisfied much with it, Try Kingston cards, i am sure you wont regret :)
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Rumbi:
Had two different Transcend Cards (8GB) and both died after a few weeks. Right now i have an Adata Class 10 and will try out the new Samsung Class 10 Series.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Whippler:
I first updated to Kingston 16 GB Class 4, and i was running out of room, got Kingston 32 GB Class 10, working good, i have around 6GB free space left.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] ttamirt:
don't you guys delete old items

I've 8gb sdcard and I usually delete old items to get some room on my sdcard. If I had a bigger card I might have ended up filling it with junks.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] bogdan5844:
I second for Kingston. Never had any problems with their memory cards.

Also, SanDisk seem to be of quality, but be on the lookout for chinese copycats. I got ripped off many times. :(

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cobirch2:
So im looking at the instructions here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1029436 and i have a few questions.

I suggests that you follow those steps to the T to avoid boot loops, but if already have red CWM and an eb01 build can i just flash the kernel and rom then odin the radio? I shouldnt have to follow the whole odin back to eb01 stock, flash cwm, etc should i?

And if i dont odin the new ec01 radio am i going to have any problems? Other than my cell reception not being as good as it could be of course
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daemonax:
Short answer is probably.

You can follow any steps that you choose, but if things go wrong, and you go asking for help, everyone will tell you to start over and follow the directions. If you read through that thread, you'll see that a lot of people took different paths and had mixed results. Personally, I followed Gizmo's directions and had zero issues. I hadn't done a full wipe in ages, so I figured that I was due.

I'd recommend doing a backup and give it a try. Worst case is you start back with the full wipe. I'd do the radio as people tend to have issues when mixing ROM's with wrong radios (like texting wierdness).
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobloblaw1:
A question you say?

Anyway, you can try to do anything you want. The instructions are there for a reason. Some people had issues when flashing EC01 with other kernels and setups. So, this is a tested and nearly guaranteed way for it to work without further hassles or troubleshooting.

You can try to flash it as is....and if it doesn't work you can always Odin back and then follow the steps. Your phone isn't going to blow up or anything if that's what you are asking.

EDIT: Got ninja'd but yeah. Worst case is it doesn't work, you Odin back to EB01, and then follow the steps.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cobirch2:
thanks a bunch. im just going to try to flash the kernel/rom first. worst comes to worst i just have to follow those directions anyways so i guess there isnt anything to lose.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bogdr:
I've tried reinstalling a number of times to no avail, and the thread in the development section doesn't seem to have anything relating to this, but every time I install Vegan-TAB Gingeredition RC1 it's missing the default browser. The tablet boots up just fine, but it's nowhere to be found, not in the dock nor in the application list. I've rebooted, connected to wireless, rebooted again, still nothing. An attempt at a manual install from /system/app/Browser.apk gives me a parsing failure, but I'm not sure if that's supposed to work anyway.

I've also tried re-downloading the zip and the MD5 sums seem to match.

My install method was pretty standard : nvflash to a version with CW, reboot, install 3588 (clear everything), reboot, reinstall CW, reboot, install vegan, clear cache/data/dalvik, reboot.

On top of this, any attempt at opening VeganTAB Settings inside settings immediately crashes.

I feel like it's probably something small and stupid that I'm doing wrong, since everyone else seems to have it working. Any thoughts?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebadfrog:
Do you mean the market or a web browser?

If its the market then you need to install gapps
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhilosophyDan:
Have you tried using Calkulin's format all? It's attached to this post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=985705

Just flash like any update.zip and it will erase everything. Be prepared to have everything erased ...

You could also try repartitioning the SDCard, which will also make sure everything is completely gone ...
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bogdr:
The web browser. The market shows up when I connect to a wireless network. I believe gapps is already installed in this ROM.

Hadn't seen that before, I'll give it a whirl when I get home. I keep backup copies on an SD card so I'm fine with blowing everything away. I've repartitioned via CW as well and that didn't seem to help.

I'll see if this fixes it. Thanks!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bogdr:
That seemed to do the trick. I ran the FORMAT ALL script, repartitioned, and even did a manual format of /sdcard. After going from the stock image to 3588, the install of Vegan seemed to work great. Couldn't be happier.

Thanks for the help!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h20wakebum:
How do I do this?

I wanted to create a folder and then have additional folders in this folder to keep things clean, but it won't let me place or create a folder within a folder.

For instance

Apps Folder

- Games Folder

- Internet Folder

- Misc Folder

etc...

Can this be done?

I would like to try to use the MIUI launcher, but with out this I am back to Launcher PRo
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mazda:
I was using MIUI very briefly when it first came out and what you're talking about wasn't possible then. I don't know what has changed in the MIUI world but if it wasn't possible then, is properly not possible now. When you create a folder I believe you can only place apps, contacts and bookmarks.

Oh and by the way, this is the wrong section to post questions. Next time go to the Q&A section and start a thread there.......otherwise go to the Development section and find the MIUI rom and then ask your question inside that thread.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h20wakebum:

[Xperia Arc General] Karooluss:
Generally happy with your new Xperia Arc? So do I;-) But...!!! I know the phone is quite fresh, but it has some bloopers, that I have noticed, which I want to have repaired as fast as the next bulid from SE arrive to me:

-repair touch bug ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1034319 )

-reduce batrery consumption

- it opened web browser instead of messages ..wtf (reboot helped)

- add make call option in message app

- no more sins I remember;-)

Plz add your suggestions to make this phone better than it is now;-) Hope that SE notice this post, and also hope to upgrade 3.0.A.2.181 soon
[Xperia Arc General] vincent.hsy:
1. The screen flickers when brightness is set to ~60% or lower (especially when displaying mostly white). Fix this and also add option to disable autobrightness.
[Xperia Arc General] Karooluss:
I have also youtube screw up. Sometimes when I browse comments it frozes and removing battery is necessary:-/
[Xperia Arc General] Karooluss:
Now the messages open tapatalk.. Wtf!!!!!! Se fix this
[Xperia Arc General] silasdm:
1. I would like very much a better calendar app. This is my first Android phone and I think even the calendar of my previous SE C510 was better. Didn't expect that.

2. The contact management can be improved too. I miss the tabbed contact editting interface of previous SE phones.

Please SE keep the excellent existing functionality of previous phones!
[Xperia Arc General] doministry:
I noticed that once. This happens when you use too much back button and especially when sending sms not directly from sms app.
[Xperia Arc General] doministry:
Actually I was surprised by this because I think Calendar and Contact management on Arc is excellent.
[Xperia Arc General] loneLEE:
I want my mediascape back =(

And wma file support =(
[Xperia Arc General] topkop:
I don't have the phone yet (waiting for LT15a) but here goes...

1.add smart dialing.

2.power control in notification bar.

3.theme change (even if it's just the color. not the biggest fan of blue on a phone.)

4.smoother browser

5.release LT15a already!

That would make me happy :)

[Xperia Arc General] d4rkwind:
Main thing i'd love to see fixed is the HD video recording stutter it was doing my head in when recording my mates band last night. Happened about 4-5 times in 7 minutes.
[Xperia Arc General] Mano1982:
Did you try to turn off "image stabilizer" in video mode? :)
[Xperia Arc General] d4rkwind:
I haven't yet will give it a go when Im next recording something nice one :). Surely such a good feature shouldn't cause such an annoying problem -_-.
[Xperia Arc General] silasdm:
Well maybe I exaggerated a little bit, i'm still getting used to this new exciting gadget ;)

But in the Calendar you can't really get a good overview of upcoming days because you always have to scroll through the whole day/week hours. The default view when opening the calendar app is always the day view. The month view could display some more info instead of basic square blocks.

For the contact management, again you have to scroll a lot when editing and viewing a contact. A solution may be adding tabs that group information? Something I also miss at the moment is the birthday entry. In my previous SE phones I could enter a birth date and then it asked if I wanted to add it to the calendar. Now I can't even add birthday info.

Despite these (small) annoyances I think it is still one of the best smartphones currently on the market.
[Xperia Arc General] arcanixX:
That happened to me after watching about 20-25 videos plugged to the TV through the HDMI.
[Xperia Arc General] arcanixX:
Those run as services, so no need to actually "close" them, because they're closed. They launch when you check notifications. In any case, just disable notifications from Twitter and Facebook; I have them totally disabled and just check manually. Leave WhatsApp the way it is, it doesn't consume anything and works like a charm.
[Xperia Arc General] arcanixX:
I think the calendar and contacts are great too! IDK why the complain.
[Xperia Arc General] Xajel:
Nice idea,

just a suggestion:-

I hope someone start organizing the thread so we have a list of all bugs/misses in the very first post and each one with a link to the corresponded post

For example

Bugs

1. screen flicker when brightness is set to 60% or lower. ( post #2 )

2. Messages mislink the messaging app sometimes. ( post #4, post #5 )

Suggestions

1. Improving the Contact app, including

- A. adding birthdays and anniversaries with automatically adding or updating these in the calendar app.

- B. adding smart dialer. ( post #9 )

- C. when sync. with facebook or any other service try to use higher res. profile image.
[Xperia Arc General] vincent.hsy:
Yup, you're right.

By the way, on the "Battery drain" thread, a few users have tested and confirmed that the camera continues to drain battery a lot even after the camera app is closed.

I also tested and seems that using a 3rd party camera app is the only workaround. Tested with Vignette, took some pics, let the phone idle... but no more abnormal battery drain.

I've been trying to theme with very little success. Guess I'm still a super newb. Anyway, does anyone know if it's possible to make a CM7 Theme Chooser theme that is a stock CM7 theme but with Androidian's black carrier label/ notification power widget background?

Oh so it's not possible for now? I'm trying to edit the files, but I have very little idea aside from stat_power_background.9.png

I can edit that file to make the background of the notification widget bg black, but I don't know which file to edit the whole carrier label section to black.

Why would you not just download the Dropbox app onto your phone? You can stream the music straight from the app without doing any of that. All you would have to do is have a folder called "Music" with either songs or other folders for albums.

Or just download the leaked Music.apk with Google Music and have all of your music on Google's "cloud".

I'm sorry, I just don't see the purpose of doing all of that.

[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
There honestly isn't a best rom. Every one has their own preference, you will just have to flash them and see which one you like the most.

Theres alot of sense ROM and alot of nonsense ROM. Try cm7. IM using that one and its wonderful. To flash you copy the zip file to the root of your sd. Dont extract it. Open up ROM manager and click install from SD. I think it says that. Then check wipe data and it will install and reboot

Xaviier didn't really tell u how. Do a nandroid using rom manager. And I switch between two roms as of now. Coredroid and miui. Coredroid gives a great themed version of gb 2.3.3 (gingerbread) layered with the sense ui. Now I like the stripped rom miui due to pure beauty and interface avaliability. Not di11 and Lee I'm not dissing y'all,yalls roms are next. I simply use a rom and a few updates and allow it to settle in,then switch. I plan to use every rom to experiment speed tests,ui speed,etc. Its up to u to decide which to stick with. Imo flash a rom,fix the settings and customize any way u want. Then do a nandroid (back up using rom manager) and flash another. If a bad flash happens or u don't like the next rom,just restore. Who knows u may love more than 1

Try Ingersoll!

IknowIknow...that's like my goto answer...why not...its my goto ROM.

But seriously...if you want speed, quick response and stability...I recommend Ingersoll or dilligaf's sense ROM...both of those ROMs light up my phone.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Krisbo:
It depends what you want in a ROM:

If you like Sense and you want to overclock, then I would go for di11igaf's ROM.

If overclocking is not important, I would go with RCMixHD 5.9 (the gingerbread version).

If Sense is not for you but you're interested in an iPhone(ish) kind of feel or you want to be able easily choose from a heap of themes then give MIUI a try.

If you're after a vanilla android flavour, go for CM7.

I generally go back and forth between RCMixHD and MIUI although I'm trying out CM7 to see what kind of battery life I can get (going camping this weekend).

[HTC Inspire 4G] acPIZZA:
I can't deicde if I need sense, so I keep flipping between inspired saga and cm7. Currently on cm7. Battery kills, speed kilks. Although the keyboard is small, it flies.
[HTC Inspire 4G] XAviierG:
Use SlideIt. Its very good I recommend it
[HTC Inspire 4G] SmittyRN:
If you don't need Sense, at least try MIUI, if for nothing else than to know what it's like. I've done a lot of the rest, came back to MIUI because it's so damn smooth and crazy fast. It's really outside the rest of the group, but it's CM7 based. Granted, it looks a lot like the iphone at first, but if you add a launcher it's more like you are used to.

That said, if I wasn't using MIUI I'd be using dilligafs, it's pretty slick. Haven't tried coredroid yet.
[HTC Inspire 4G] acPIZZA:
I meant that even though the keyboard looks small, it is super fast and super accurate. It reminds me of typing on an iPhone 4 which is IMO one of the best touch keyboards in the market.

I also really like the ability to alter the long press duration. I know a lot of keyboards have this feature, but it is really important to me. It makes entering passwords much easier. Currently have mine set to 175ms so I barely have to stop to enter a number.
