I wouldn't argue with that, although me and my team does! For example, when I am out in the middle of a forest and for statistical purposes I need some random numbers to make some evaluations, I trust my Android phone for this. I am enviromenstalist and my job is mostly not in the office.

Anyway, I didn't say that this program is useful to everybody and moreover its free. If you don't like it and don't find it useful, don't bother installing it. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] thetak:
My friend, your mind cannot produce random numbers. It's kind of difficult because you always have in mind for example your favorite number, the date you were born, the number of your phone etc. But this program does.

Thanks anyway.:cool:
[Android Apps and Games] tincmulc:
Am I just stupid or is it impossible to edit the list after you add something to it?
[Android Apps and Games] thetak:
No, you are not stupid. You cannot edit the list, but I will fix it in the next version. It is a very serious suggestion. Thanks a lot and please wait for the next version! ;)
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Can you ask your app if I should download and test this please?

I want a simple yes or no...

Yes, of course you can ;)
[Android Apps and Games] khaytsus:
http://www.appbrain.com/search?q=magic+8 would be useful then? Cool ;)
[Android Apps and Games] thetak:
khaytsus, I don't think that's the same thing!

I add Yes or No option, just for fun, if you mean this. But the Numbers and List option are very serious if you need them. Besides there are people that doing the job of producing random numbers for a living! No, I'm not joking, if you ask someone who is doing statistical surveys for example he will tell you that random numbers are the key to his work!

You should pay a visit here for more info :cool:
[Android Apps and Games] thinkpanda:
it would be nice if there is a generic share button to send random numbers to any apps.
[Android Apps and Games] thetak:
It's not a bad idea!

Like which apps? Can you mention an example?
[Android Apps and Games] thinkpanda:
Just like the build-in Gallery. There is a "share" button that use can send a picture (random numbers for your case) to a selected application.
[Android Apps and Games] thetak:
I will look into it. Thanks!:)
[HTC Sensation] MrMiyagi:
I know it has 1GB Internal storage but how much of that is used by Android/Sense and how much is left for the user?

I have seen some reports that say that the Sensation actually has 4GB internal but only 1GB is user accessible. Does this mean that the other 3GB are used for OS/Sense and the user sees the full 1GB free on first boot?

TIA
[HTC Sensation] kgbkny:
Correct. The actual amount of available memory will be approximately 1.20 GB.
[HTC Sensation] MrMiyagi:
Thanks, I can live with 1GB as long as it's all for me and not also taken up by Android/Sense ;)
[HTC Sensation] simacca:
What happens when the 1gb space runs out. Can I not install anymore apps? 1 gig is quite small if its only for apps.

I will be coming from an iPhone, so you can understand my memory question.

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] dcwiker05:
Even though the iPhone has 16/32 gigs of internal memory and all of that is technically available for apps/games, I HIGHLY doubt you are using anywhere close to a gig. Apps are VERY small, shockingly. Also most games which are the biggest apps you can get on Andriod install all the extras on your SD card and never make a footprint on the internal memory. Basically what I mean by this is, if you use 1 GIG for apps... you sir have WAY to many apps lol. I have about 70 apps (not including system apps) and I am only using 578MB of my 1.2 GB interal memory. Most of those apps I could easily uninstal as I seldom use them, but I dont feel like it lol
[HTC Sensation] simacca:
I have about 8 gigs worth of apps/games on my 16gb iPhone 4. Quite a few of the decent arcade games are about 400mb.

I dont think I have too many apps on my iPhone and I would of thought most iPhone users have much more than 1gb worth of apps on their phones. You can never have too many apps ;)

Can you install more than 1gb of apps on the Samsung Galaxy S2's internal memory?

If so, then why cant we install to the memory card when we run out of internal memory?

Would make things so much easier. I'm hoping that this will not put me of the Sensation when I finally get my hands one one :)
[HTC Sensation] dcwiker05:
All I can say to that is damn... that is a lot of freaking apps. I have what I feel is well more then enough games and apps on my phone and haven't hit a gig. I should ask my cousin how much he has on his iPhone. I could never have that much stuff on my phone. And yes you can install 90% of apps on your SD card as well so you should be fine if you do hit your 1 GIG. Mostly widgets are the only thing that can not be installed on the SD card
[HTC Sensation] simacca:
Well thats good to know. At least I wont be worrying so much about running out of memory.

I don't play with half of my apps regularly, but it's good to know that they are there if I get bored :)
[HTC Sensation] agent.m:
Having an iPad and an iPod I can understand your thinking. But with android even the big apps store their data ie game sounds etc on the sd card and the initial app is really small. There is a thing called apps to sd where you can choose to have the apps on the sd. Also as long as the sensation gets rooted at some point correct me if I'm wrong but you should have no problem filling your sd card with whatever apps you want as google have opened the file size restrictions for apps for developers.

As for BP edits, you should really read the thread I linked, we have tried everything lol, IIRC member "uncorrupted" said he was also modding the apk itself, maybe PM him and share ideas? Also, are you using the most recent xda release of the apk, modded to not ask for device checks? That one was posted in android themes and apps, and also did not work on the heroC :(

Yeah it's more than build.prop edits...we've tried almost every suggested idea, except ripping apart the apk itself (other than removing the device check).

Juice Defender is the ABSOLUTE BEST in this regard. You can customise to enable wifi or mobile network to screen on/off or you can customise to connect wifi when you open a certain app that needs data. You can imagine how much battery you'll save. Try it,you wont regret it.

i need to bay galaxy s mainly for GPS , but i heard a lot of proplems regarding the GPS , i need to know before baying is it true , what is the exact proplems and could it be fixed for real ..... and is it work off line or not ... and if work offline is it work with voice navigation or not.... i will appreciate your responces
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kops:
If you are looking to mainly use it as a GPS unit, I might advise otherwise, as some do struggle with their GPS signal. There are a few known errors, some with fixes, and others do not experience any problems at all. If you are looking for a quality phone that includes GPS, Galaxy is a great choice. If you're looking for a quality GPS that includes a phone, Galaxy may not be the best option.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhilPassmore:
I run the SGS with ALK CoPilot Sat Nav software. Initial GPS fix can be a little slow, but otherwise ok. Copilot requires no online connection, although it can make use of one for traffic updates etc, and the voice prompts work well.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kops:
I use Google Maps. Lock will take about 3-5 minutes on average. I can usually speed up the process by launching GPS Test app, and finding where my phone gets best satellite reception to lock a signal. I otherwise have no issues with the GPS
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tyxerakias:
I use Sygic Mobile Maps, Igo and Navigon. Locking never takes more than 15 seconds, and navigation is perfect. All the problems that existed in Eclair 2.1 versions have disappeared. I'm very happy with the GPS.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t1mman:
First off, Galaxy is a phone (and a great one) with a GPS, not the other way around. If you want rock solid GPS, buy a GPS! The chip, the antena, the optimisation will just be better on a standalone GPS.

Then, if you want to have the addition of a GPS chip on the phone, IMHO, it's a great bundle. I get fast and precise fix and I can even use it to track my jogs (and listen to music while I'm at it!). Google Maps and such nav apps are pretty neat and effective.

So, basicaly, if you need a GPS with a phone, buy a GPS and a phone...

If you want a great bundle with GPS function, SGS is the way to go!

gingerbread updates make the gps better, for me the jvo modem (jvh rom) made a huge difference for the better. it got lock way faster (below 1 min vs 2-3 on js3) and saw more satellites
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herbert1:
Between the HTC Sapphire (HCT Magic), the ACER liquid and the Samsung Galaxy S, I had in my hands this last one has the worst GPS.

On my unit it's sometime barely usable.

Some people have good GPS in their SGS and are very happy, but many other have bad units. There are many different fixes in the forums, but we still are waiting for a official one.

The SGS is a good Android phone, but if GPS is really important for you, I won't recommend it. If you are lucky you will have a good GPS, but you can also have a bad one...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jutezak:
GPS is also varying. I thought it was fixed with the 2.2.1 update, but today I had problems. Even power cycled the phone and reset the GPS data with the GPS Status app. And now, indoors, it is suddenly working again.

All very strange.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shanakin:
In truth people have wildly varying experiences with the GPS in the SGS. For some it works perfectly, for others it pretty much is unusable. It is a widely documented problem with several known and possible causes.

At times I get locks with an accuracy in the tens of kilometres for example. Normally I get locks around 30m to 10m however - when I am outside. Lock times are not really a problem but stability and accuracy are.

As for fixes, there are a few, but as before people report wildly different outcomes on each one. Most of the fixes involve voiding your warranty and they may not even work for you.

Honestly the Galaxy S is a great phone and I love mine - One of the best out there in many markets. However if GPS is your primary concern I would strongly recommend you look at other models. At the very least buy from somewhere with a solid return policy and the ability to perhaps swap out for a different phone. You could just as easily buy a perfect SGS as a dud.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xpcomputers:
The brand new SGS2 has reportedly got a much better GPS unit fitted (it's a different GPS chipset!), and might be a better choice if looking for a new phone, and your budget stretched that far.

The SGS, as others have said has a varied set of problems both hardware and software based. The latest firmware has sorted it for many, and there are various tweaks, if you did find problems.

The hardware itself was more a problem on the earliest units (pe-october), with then having poor contact inside to the antenna, although some post-october units suffer from this too. This can be fixed on all of them by opening the unit and bending or soldering the contacts.

As long as you buy it from a place with a good returns policy... Or but a second hand unit you can test before purchase, then the SGS should be fine... But many would love an SGS2 if buying again now!

Hope this helps

Mike

This is a pretty darn good price for a 32GB micro sdhc! Also being Sandisk brand, they usually go for more. It doesn't specify what class it is, but its probably class 4? Anyways, its only $56 and eligible for Prime shipping! The msrp is $138 on the official website. Sweet!

Here's the official link on Sandisk's page...http://www.sandisk.com/products/mobile-memory-products/sandisk-microsdhc

EDIT: I guess this card is a Class 2, according to one of the reviewers at Amazon. They also said it performed very well though.

[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] lacrossev:
I use one of those for my evo, it works fine. Then again the evo came with a class 2 card so theres no reason why it wouldn't, its just initially putting stuff on there takes more time, read speeds are totally adequate for a phone.

I think the quality of the sandisk cards are great, I have a three year old 8gb in my tablet right now and it works flawlessly. That is a great price,but it seems kind of slow given current options out there. I'm probably going to buy a 16gb class 10. This patriot one seems like a good deal.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] js042507:
That patriot card is great. I actually have it in my tf right now. I've done speed tests on it that came out pretty high. There is an app you can use called 'sd tools' in the market. Good card for the price!

Although I haven't put it in a Transformer yet, I have the SanDisk 32GB microSD and through my SD card reader on a mac it tests at 5.1mb/s write, 13.9mb/s read.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Ryaninja:
Sandisk speeds

If the card is really slow, and it was cheap, it could be a fake, but don't jump to conclusions quite yet. I once bought a 16gb Class 10 SDHC card, and when I couldn't achieve the 30mb/s read (or anywhere near it) I contacted Sandisk.

I then spent the next week or so sending them pictures, serial numbers and other details such as where I bought it from and it took them a surprising amount of time to confirm whether it was genuine.

Once confirmed it was genuine, although I had a new sandisk multi-card reader, I had to get a specific sandisk sdhc only reader to achieve the fabled 30mb/s. Sandisk allowed me to send my current one to them and they sent me out one that would work to it's maximum capacity.

All this, just to say you can't trust the speed tests you get from windows or osx, as even when you have genuine cards and genuine readers, sometimes there's more to it than that. When I contacted Sandisk I mentioned that they should make it more clear, as nowhere do they say that you need specialist readers to get the best speeds! :)

just a FYI - the mms issue isn't a CM7 specific issue, it's affected every AOSP build we have out (including all the original ones that were developed by the fascinate guys)

Once we loaded the correct server info into the APN, it was trying to connect to the server but giving an error about WAP not being enabled - that's as far as we got with it.

And by the way, for future reference - only development topics should be posted here - this should have gone in general.
[Samsung Mesmerize] veteranmina:

MMS doesn't work at all for any AOSP rom so sometimes we don't bother messing with APNs config when we port.

I've had plenty of APN problems while roaming with my US Cell phone. In April in December I traveled to Dallas, was in a building I couldn't get signal and when I came out the phone said "No APN Configured" - Once I landed in Milwaukee and powered on my phone again it worked just fine. Same thing happened again last week when I was out in a rural area.

I've grabbed APN Manager from the apps store and backed up my settings to restore them if this occurs again. I might get a chance to try that out this weekend since i'll be up in the middle of nowhere once again.

I can't recall exactly what I was running before but now i'm on the EC10 Heinz 57.
