[Streak 5 General] hp79:
I got 1.9.0 on mine, and use SetCPU to overclock to 460 MHz-1382 MHz. It runs stable very nicely especially when using the GPS.

One thing I absolutely hate is the choppy home screen using Laucher Pro with effects disabled. It's usable, but it still can't compare to the smoothness of iPod Touch 4g or Windows Phones home screens.

Another thing I really hate about Android is that wifi is not that smooth. It doesn't stay on even if I change the menu in 'wi-fi settings' - 'Advanced' - change the sleep policy to 'Never', and it doesn't automatically switch to known wifi when I move to another location. The worst thing about wifi is that it sometimes doesn't work at all even if it can see the routers, and say it's connected. This really pisses me off. Kakao talk, emails notifications come in really slow. Sometimes it doesn't come in unless I manually run those apps and do a refresh.

I bought mine as a phone/ipod touch 4g replacement, but these problems are making me want to get rid of my streak. If the GPS was slow too, I would have already sold it. GPS is way faster than my Garmin 1350T.
[Streak 5 General] deadjinn:
Mine has been great with wifi (untill the dj steve gingerbread update). It always stays on and always switches between known and saved connections when i move from one known hotspot to another.

However, now with the new update, when wifi is left on and my streak is idol it likes to reset itself. Now i have to leave it off all the time. Ive also experienced a ton of lag and sluggish performence with this new update. Fingers crossed for an update soon.
[Streak 5 General] Ruudfood:
Can I download that from the market? :confused: ;)
[Streak 5 General] freco:
Official 318 + Perfmod + clean crapware + overclock to 1,2 + baby oil (optional :D) = Best streak I 've ever had.
[Streak 5 General] rezinous:
i found stageui lagged me too much, went to adw and just put a blank background, running smooth on 1.9 streakdroid
[Streak 5 General] BlueCrystal:
I believe you can set stageui to be completely removed on install. Ive tried with the fast root uninstallers but it never goes away. I just end up killing it with SystemPanel. Or attempting to.
[Streak 5 General] ajairola:
I'm running 351 Stock, Rooted and the best way to speed things up is to disable/freeze StageUI because deleting it seems to cause force closes randomly(at least it did on 318), and remove all of the apps Dell loaded on there, that are useless.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] theGeeko61@gmail.com:
I am interested in volunteering some time into helping to improve the XDA Wiki in order to bring a balance to the FORUM + WIKI equation. Who among this community has time (and is willing) to assist?

In addition to this post, I have brought the issue up with Dave Shaw who is the sysop of the Wiki.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] fknfocused:
ill spare some time since im always in here answering questions. I was going to ask Mr clown too make some stickies

sent from my not so stock SGS4G
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] theGeeko61@gmail.com:
Join the group

Thanks fknfocused. If we use the Wiki properly, we can avoid having to tax Mr Clown with routine details... And, while stickies in forums are nice, they create a bottleneck since they are so tightly controlled.

I created a group for Galaxy S 4G Owners (http://xdaforums.com/group.php?groupid=421) which you may be interested in. I am simply looking for ways to help us help ourselves better... :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] fknfocused:
let me know what I could do to help, and HOPEFULLY new folks can search and read before creating new threads every 30 seconds.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] SuperDeform:
yes that is true noobs are flooding threads with random answers to just increase there posts to 10 so they can advance.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] theGeeko61@gmail.com:
That is one problem; another is that old-timers post with a "+1" to mean they agree... I see that there is a request outstanding to add an "AGREE" button (like the "THANKS" one)...

The first thing that we need to do is to identify what information needs to be added. In the wiki, there has not been a GS4G page created yet. I've put a stub on my User page... This is one cause for all the noob questions in the fora, I am guessing. Since, at present, searches do not exist on the wiki side.

The things that are specific to the GS4G are the ROM Mods, kernel, and CWM (which, of course, is still beta)...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] theGeeko61@gmail.com:
Announcement: New Wiki Page evolving

Now, when one searches the XDA-Developers Wiki for "Galaxy S 4G," the researcher will be directed to an emerging Wiki page about the SGS4G. Further, if one searches for "Nandroid Backup," the search engine provides a list of links:

General Reference

Specific Reference

Among other results

As stated in my previous postings here, together we can improve XDA-Developers by adding content to the Wiki which balances the content of the Fora (which are abundantly active!).

Again I ask, "Would you please help us in this venture?"

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
Wait we have a WIKI? I've been around for a little while and I didn't know that. Maybe the first step would be to get the news out in a forum layout. Meaning sticky the link. Maybe put it into the subforum listing? Sounds like a great way to put all the resources available here into an easy to use format. I don't know much about how it works but if I can help let me know.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] vgcraze:
The basic wiki format is easy to learn. Just hit edit and see how the page is actually organized.

I updated the Gingerbread section on the Samsung Galaxy S 4G ROMs wiki page to place sort of a general template. I left out the ones based on leaks as they are pretty outdated.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] theGeeko61@gmail.com:
Good to know that there has been interest in the SGS4G Wiki. And what a resource it has become!!

Remember, each page that gets added should also be added to the Samsung_Galaxy_S_4G category:

There's also a group for Galaxy S 4G owners...

Also, there is a group for Galaxy S 4G owners... Don't forget to add yourself to that, if interested in collaborating...

The WIKI looks great guys. Thanks to everyone who helped and is helping get it organized. So convenient to just use that link instead of having to search for other threads to reference someone to.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] theGeeko61@gmail.com:
The WIKI is a STICKY!

Thanks to lufc, the wiki is now a stickie... (I couldn't resist!)

For everyone who is interested, please review the Wiki with "new eyes" and make the changes which you think would help...

It is really evolving nicely... and everyone (forum posters and wiki editors) can be proud of their work!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] alon2:
great news thank you for that
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] theGeeko61@gmail.com:
Wiki Overflow...

Alon2 has (correctly, I believe) noticed that the Wiki main page is getting a bit oversized. I recommend that we move the content for Guides into individual pages... with links from the main page as the first adjustment.

Before actually executing the plan, however, I am interested to hear from others who may (and probably do) have better ideas -- or longer-ranged vision.

Suggestions? Feedback? Assistance?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] theGeeko61@gmail.com:
A new look for the Galaxy S 4G ROMs page... please review for mistakes.

I have tried to improve the ROMs page by moving the information into a table. I used great care in doing so. I tried to not change any content.

Please review (especially developers/owners of content) for errors... Each developer/team has access to modify that page as their respective products are maintained/updated.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] vgcraze:
Nixe work! I like the table for the Froyo ROMs, but not so much for the Gingerbread ones. It's appearance just doesn't sit well with me.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] theGeeko61@gmail.com:
Discussion is good, action is better.

Ok... please identify your concern. Content has not changed... just threw it into table format for easily navigating the info. Without the table, I had to scroll up and down the page to compare.

I'd be happy to incorporate suggestions for improvement. I'd be even happier if you'd just improve it yourself.

That's the whole idea of a wiki... others come along and improve it. Improve it either with content (as it is expected that developers will do) or with layout (as it is anticipated that anyone can do).

Unlike the forum, no one will publicly humiliate you for your changes in the wiki (presuming you don't trash it!). It is presumed that a change is being made for improvement.

Go get'em... Let's see what your vision of the table looks like! I'm eager to know.

If you change the file name of a backup, it will give you that error. Did you do that?
[Epic 4G General] daddymikey1975:
maybe file corruption on the sd card ??

you could try making a backup of the sd card on your pc, then formatting the SD card, then restoring what's necessary to do the nandroid restore .. just another suggestion.
[Epic 4G General] chris41g:
Just shell into your phone goto the backups dir and do

Md5sum -t *.img > nandroid.md5
[Epic 4G General] steviee7:
I did! :( it was hard to find the exact one
[Epic 4G General] chris41g:
Making a new nandroid.md5 file like I described above will fix the issue
[Epic 4G General] skeeterslint:
This will not make a difference backups are made into a yaffs image. You can backup a rfs system and restore it to an ext4 system.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
But yet a lot of people seem to go into boot loops restoring a backup of an RFS system on a newly formatted EXT4 system.

Do you BONSAI?
[Epic 4G General] skeeterslint:
From my experience with nand backups is that its like the whole /data partition gets backed up/restored which brings in things that can cuase conflicts, things in dalvik cache and such.I have only ever had luck restore a nand to the same rom that the backup was made from I have always had issues going from one rom to another.IMO backing up your apps with Titanium Backup and restoring them without restoring system data has always been a win for me, nand backups have always been hit or miss.
[Epic 4G General] chris41g:
Best to clear cache dalvik and tombstone at the very least after a nandroid restore
[Epic 4G General] skeeterslint:
Yeah good call on that.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] cmjkxa:
Question, this app freezes while updating and judging by the comments in the reviews of the app in the marketplace, a few other people are having the same issue. I was told by an ATT rep that you had to have U-verse at home in order to use this app. But on ATT.com, theres a separate package specifically for the phone that's 9.99. I'm getting two different answers and no solution. Does anyone know for sure? :o
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Optimus-Prime:
Yeah pretty much 7 days free, then 9.99 a month to use the app.

the funny thing is that my backflip had a "Mobile Video" app i think and it would be able to watch videos on there like full disney shows some clips Spongebob and what not.

not it doesnt come preloaded on any new android device try to call in about that.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] nstong:
You can buy a used slingbox for ~$70, then the slingplayer app is $30.

I have this issue, with all browsers, but only some of the time. I believe I know why, but don't have a solution. When launching the browsers from other apps like twitter, RSS readers, any other app really, sometimes in the multitasking menu the apps that you launched the browser from shows up instead of the browser itself.

I never seem to have this issue when I launch the browser by itself, it shows up in the multitasking menu just fine. Perhaps the launching app replaces the browser in the multitasking menu?

Not sure if others have noticed this or have any evidence to the contrary, might be intermittent, but it seems that every time I want to go back to the browser and its not in the multitasking menu I have launched the browser via another app like twitter or RSS reader.

This also happens sometimes with file managers launcher apps from files in the file system.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nerz:
I don't know how it does it, but I had a usb cable that had some bad terminals and when I plugged it into the phone when the phone was turned off, it went into recovery mode every time. I'm no electrical engineer so my theory had no basis but my thought is that the usb cable when coming from a charge dock has 2 pins for dc current, 1 positive and one negative. The 3 left (I think it's 5, not sure, not looking at one) must be for data transfer. Maybe 2 for synchronous travel and one for data corruption testing, not sure. Out of these pins, the only thing that makes sense to me that made it go into recovery was that one of the charge pins were not making contact, the positive or negative. I dont think any of the transfer pins would make a difference in this. Again, not sure if this is how it worked or not, just a theory. Maybe it can be replicated if recovery will help you, don't have any knowledge of CM.
