[EVO 4G General] VENOMENON_24:
I've now had 4 Wintec SD cards. All of them burnt out. They just stopped working.

I got a class 10 patriot so far so good, I guess those are pretty iffy). I got it from Fry's (BTW, Fry's WILL price match with Newegg).

The most reliable SD card I have believe it or not is my 16gb PNY class 4. Not as fast, but I've had it for 8+ months and no issues.

Also, I know you're passed the 15 days, but still go in to Fry's and demand an exchange. I went in and exchanged all of those Wintec SD cards, Here's how it went down almost every time:

Me: I want to exchange this SD card. It stopped working.

Sales Associate: It's passed the 15 day return policy for SD cards, I'm sorry.

Me: Yeah, you said return policy, that's not what I want to do. I don't want my money back, I want an SD card that works.

Sales: Nope, sorry.

Me: If you can't help me, get me someone who can.

Manager comes in*

Manager: How can I help you?

Me: I want to exchange my SD card for one that works. This one simply stopped working. I don't want a refund, I just want a new one. Why should I have to suffer for buying a defective item? It's advertised to work and it won't. Just take it back, mark it out and the company gives you the money back. I've worked in retail and I've damaged things out. It happens and it's not the customers fault.

Manager: Well, you see, you're passed the return/exchange policy. I'm very sorry.

Me: That's it? No, I'm a paying customer and this is how I get treated? If you can't help me, THEN GET ME THE NUMBER OF SOMEBODY WHO CAN.

*From then on, it goes to their district manager who simply gets exhausted and doesn't really care so they give me the okay and I get the exchange. Now, they don't argue and they just exchange it.

I'm not talking about abusing a return policy at all. If something simply does NOT work, then yes you should get your way. I don't care if it's a little passed 15-30 day return policy. Now mind you, I'm not talking a year after the return date, that's just messed up, hahahaha.

If you break something, then you break it. Don't go looking for an exchange, that's just ugly.

[EVO 4G General] iitreatedii:
Once again, buy from tiger direct, Jewett. Etc. Somewhere where they let you swap out If If If If you have a problem. Like I said, 30 dollars for a class 10 is an amazing deal. I love it, had no problems, some people have problems but that's the same with everything. When you find me a card where 100 percent of people have never had a problem, I'll ll give in...
[EVO 4G General] aimbdd:
See this is the problem... if they did that for you they would be losing the cost of the sd card.. when it isn't their fault. If your going to be mad at anyone, it should be the maker of the card.

16GB Class 10 - PNY Brand

Link here http://www.bestbuy.com/site/PNY+-+16GB+microSDHC+Class+10+Memory+Card/2300848.p?id=1218320077090&skuId=2300848

I just picked up 2 of these, saw them linked in the Iconia threads as I was reviewing tablets.

16GB class 10, buy online or in store for 34.99. They are in the camera section, not the phone section. Comes with the adapter.

I went and got them in store as I wanted them without waiting and if there are issues it is much easier to take it back and *****, second one is a backup and for if I do get a tablet.

So far the speeds are AWESOME, tested out great with the app. Transferring everything over now from my 8gb class 4 card.

Partitioned out 1GB for A2SD and the larger roms that are coming out.

Hit me up with a thanks if this helps you!

I bought by 8GB Sandisk Class 4 in 2007, and it has been in continuous use from my WinMo 6800, WinMo Touch Pro, HTC Hero and now HTC Evo. During its stay in my Hero, it was used as a swap partition and endured heavy R/W. It's still going strong! This compared to the truly *countless* failures I see from people who buy from bulk online retailers and fail within months, if not weeks of purchase. I'm not saying any one brand is perfect, but for the most part, you get what you pay for when it comes to offname suspiciously cheap memory cards.

That being said, we'll see how this PNY card fares... :D
[EVO 4G General] ffolkes:
Ha! I just checked bestbuy's site, and the card in question (http://www.bestbuy.com/site/PNY+-+1...Card/2300848.p?id=1218320077090&skuId=2300848) is now $39.99 EVERYDAY PRICE.

[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brason:
I dropped my HTC Legend yesterday onto concrete, and now my screen is cracked. I've looked online to see if I could buy the part myself, and try and fix it myself as a local cell repair shop says it will cost 180$ to fix, for that price I'll just buy a brand new Legend and cut my losses with this one. Looking around online though, I'm unsure as to what I need to buy? I've found an LCD screen, or a digitizer... My touchscreen and all those functions work 100% all thats wrong is the glass is spiderwebbed pretty good. I'm thinking that I need the digitizer not the LCD screen? Or is there just a part thats just the glass? I'd post a picture of the phone, but I can't due to site restrictions.

Well you may have plenty of photos and videos in there. Put in the external SD card and go to camera app options. There you should be able to choose where to save the snaps and videos.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a_iqubal:
Hi,

With the release of Galaxy Tab Gingerbread 2.3.3 by Chainfire

( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1073854 ), I intend to update my Galaxy Tab (running Froyo 2.2) to Gingerbread. Since I use only Linux in my computer, the only option to flash my Tab is to use Heimdall ( http://www.glassechidna.com.au/products/heimdall/ ).

What I wish to know is:

1. The procedure using Odin calls for repartitioning. Is it okay to repartition using Heimdall?

2. There is a file called hidden.rfs in the official stock rom provided by Chanifire. How do I flash this hidden.rfs using Heimdall? Heimdall accepts only the following arguments as per it's man page:

action: flash

[--pit <filename>] [--factoryfs <filename>] [--cache <filename>]

[--dbdata <filename>] [--primary-boot <filename>]

[--secondary-boot <filename>] [--secondary-boot-backup <filename>]

[--param <filename>] [--kernel <filename>] [--recovery <filename>]

[--efs <filename>] [--modem <filename>]

(Nowhere is any mention of hidden.rfs. I am confused as how to include it while flashing my Galaxy Tab).

If someone can help me, I would very much appreciate it.

Thanks in advance.

I have also had numerous problems when connecting it to a pc. I went out and bought a good USB cord for it and how I finally got it rooted was a miracle. Anyways I am going to take it back tomorrow and am not sure if I should go with Nexus S or keep my Epic?

[Epic 4G General] ecooce:
I say keep your epic, the nexus is not reaaly a big step up, actually a step down in some areas, and the development will really kick in once we can settle on an update to dev for, Sprint/Samsung is not helping any; Yes we love updates, but this BS the epic hackers have gone threw the past 4 months is crazy. I say once gingerbread breaks we will have some devs come out of the dark... We have several big names that just came over to the epic.
[Epic 4G General] ZekeDev:
I agree... I would keep the Epic. One of the greatest things about the Epic is the very same thing that seperates it from the other Galaxy S phones as well. The slide out keyboard. There's good devs for both the Epic and the Nexus S, but you won't get the support there that you get here. This place used to be a constant war zone, but all the Devs really got it together and now it's top notch.

Thx for the reassurance! Epic is here to stay. I see a ton of great development already made and looks like more greatness is to come.

[Epic 4G General] h4kudoshi:
After several days of testing different ways to keep the battery from draining, and recalibrating the battery it still has a crappy life to me. Today I unplugged my phone and the battery from from 100 to 70 in less than an hour. There seems to be different problems almost everyday. Is the battery really this horrible? I have 2 days before my 30 days is up so I really should just take it in to the store and have them replace the battery I think.

Even my hero had way longer battery life and I always had gps and max screen brightness on. This I have everything turned off (except wifi on occasion) and the battery still gets the life sucked out of it.

hi guys,

i've just rooted my dhd and done a radio s-off and installed revolutions 5.1.4.

my question is regarding flashing a new radio - if i do flash a new radio, how could i restore my stock radio for warranty purposes if i ever had to?

thanks

k.
[General Questions and Answers] Mr_JMM:
Make a note of it then check the DHD Development Forum radio thread to see if it's there in which case you can install it again.

But if going to stock you'd probably flash a stock RUU which unlike a custom ROM will contain the stock radio too.
[General Questions and Answers] makcrellon:
Guys don't know if this is useful however I found that sometimes the radio which comes with the ROM isn't always the best one to use. For example with ARHD 2.2 I was using Mike's ROM with the official radio, and I found my device would often disconnect during calls.

I switched over to LeeDroid and his suggested radio, and this worked absolutely fine. So I then tried Mike's ROM again with the radio for Lee's ROM and it worked a treat.

I'm based in Italy and not sure if the ROMs are tested by the guys when developing in the UK, but I've found you can play around a bit.

I wish people would stop telling people to re-flash ROMs again when downgrading. You only need to flash once, then do a factory reset as 2.3 data partitions are incompatible with 2.1. Re-flashing a ROM twice will NOT WORK. Just pop your phone in fastboot mode and run fastboot -w then fastboot reboot from command prompt. The phone will now boot past the android screen.

Hope it helps,
