[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlueGoldAce:
Question for everyone here,

What is your recommendation for a high quality, affordable 32 gigabyte micro sd card? Is class ten necessary? So what do you recommend?

I appreciate the feedback,

Blue
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dpilcher:
Is C10 needed...depends on what type of performance you want and what you use your phone for. If you are using your card to run/store your apps, then yes a C10 is the fastest (as of this moment). You will also notice a difference on looking back at your pictures as well as camera/camcorder performance when using the maxed out settings.

Is C10 needed..no, but if you have the funds I would go that route. I have two C10 cards and have had good performance from them (Patriot 16G - PNY 16G). I would stay away from Transcend branded cards due to my experience with them. They (from reviews and personal experience) tend to not like ext2=>ext3 upgrades.

Micro Center and Fryes usually have pretty good prices and are legit, be careful if you go the ebay/amazon route, kind of a slot pull if you will.

Enjoy the many options out there and all the best in making your decision.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Wintecs are fairly decent, 32gb class 10 for 65$ on newegg.com ; have one on order.

Class 10 isn't NEEDED, but they provided faster read/write speeds, and its always appreciated.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsf3g:
I usually look for something with good reviews on Amazon. The on etime I bought a big SD card on eBay, the card didn't work at all. However, the Chinese seller did refund my money with no fuss or hassle.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jam2169:
Thanks very much
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheATHEiST:
If you are coming from a rom that has clockwork recovery you can simply flash with the zip file from the CM7 Technomancer thread.

Just boot into recovery and do full wipe (factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache) then flash your rom.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k0sh:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bikeracer4487:
So...first I should clarify, when I say "hangs" it's more like it stalls...it doesn't stay there forever it'll just reach 100% fairly quickly (like 5-10 seconds or so) and then sit there are 100% for 2-3 minutes before it finally completes... I have a brand new 32GB microSD card with about 20GB of songs on it...very frustrating...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sp1tfire:
Most likely those 20 GB of songs aren't that easy to be scanned. I only have a 8 gb card with about 3 gb free and scan runs instantly.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bikeracer4487:
K, so figure I have 4x as much as you and 4 * instant = instant...or at least just a little longer...

Anyways, I just rebooted my phone and started timing as soon as it start media scanning on the external SD card...it got to 90% on the SD card in 12 seconds, hit 100% at 40 seconds, but it didn't actually COMPLETE until 3 minutes and 45 seconds...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sp1tfire:
You can try formatting your card and putting back the songs, but first wait for an opinion of someone else who uses a 32 gb card and has lots of files like you do.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
The usual story with problems on 32GB memory cards is its a fake .

I would test it .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bikeracer4487:
A fake? I don't understand...it's a Sandisk card that I bought from Newegg...what do you mean by "fake" and how would I go about testing it?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bruflot:
Listen, it might have a 1.2 GHz Dual Core processor, but that doesn't mean everything happens in a blink :P

It takes time to scan through 20 GB of songs
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdalacu:
You should mount that card in windows and run scandisk on it. That will fix it, i hope.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bikeracer4487:
Ran scandisk, no problems...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Sandisk have a memory tester . Probable that yours via Newegg is ok but as i said a lot are fake .

Memory says that you can turn the scanning off i believe it was posted in the SGS1 forum .

[Thunderbolt General] nmyeti:
I've seen a large number of posts in the various ROM/Radio threads that indicate to me that many of our users do not know how to check MD5 sums. I wrote this post in the BAMF sense 3.0 thread, but it will be buried there in a matter of minutes. Moderators, i understand this isn't strictly thunderbolt development related, but given the number of questions about this in this forum, I thought this might be appropriate, if you disagree, please move.

On windows use

http://download.cnet.com/MD5-Checker/3000-2092_4-10410639.html

Unzip and launch md5.exe

Copy the MD5 hash sum of the rom you downloaded to your clipboard

Hit the paste button in the MD5.exe program

Browse to the file you downloaded

If the codes match the box goes green and the text tells you that the codes match.

On Linux;

cd Downloads (assuming Downloads is the path of the file)

md5sum BAMFROMYOUJUSTDOWNLOADED.zip

Check the output of the md5sum command against the has posted in the thread. Also note that the md5sum command on Linux doesn't like special characters such as () / or anything in the rom name. You can rename a file without changing the MD5 hash, so keep this in mind.
[Thunderbolt General] :
Just figured I would mention that if you are doing it on your device you can download hash Droid from the market and do it that way also
[Thunderbolt General] dhemke17:
On a mac, from the home directory in terminal, you can just type

md5 [drag-and-drop the zip file you downloaded] and hit enter. It will give you your md5sum
[Thunderbolt General] SF Bolt:
Also AFV in the market Android File Verifier works like a charm!
[Thunderbolt General] lrs421:
Great guide OP :), you're right, this one comes up a lot.

I personally use astro file manager. Navigate to the file, long press and select "Details". Give it a few seconds and it will give you the MD5 checksum :).
[Thunderbolt General] major_works:
The previous two posts mentioned AFV and Astro. I had been using AFV with good success. Recently I learned of Astro's ability to extract the MD5 sum in the manner lrs421 mentions. That's the way I've been approaching it of late.

I've not been doing this rooting/flashing thing for long and have yet to have a download come up bad, but when one does, I want to know before I screw up my Bolt with it. So checking MD5 sums is, for me, an essential step.

Thanks to the OP for a good tutorial thread!
[Thunderbolt General] avlfive:
Yup. This is the way to go. Astro too but I prefer AFV.
[Thunderbolt General] xcrazydx:
Thanks for this, I've been trying to figure out how to do this.
[Thunderbolt General] Jc8206:
I've flashed so many roms my buttons are wearing out, and I have never once checked an md5....
[Thunderbolt General] nitsuj17:
step 1: get linux, cuz windows sucks

step 2: open a terminal

step 3: type

md5sum (file name) (path to file name) or just drag in the zip to the terminal

step 4: hit enter

theres the md5sum
[Thunderbolt General] KidJoe:
I've always used FSUM via command line in windows. (just make sure its EXE is in a folder that is part of the windows path (like put the FSUM.EXE in c:\windows)...

When I open a command prompt, I change to the directory with my downloaded file and type FSUM fileyoujustdownloaded.zip and compare the MD5 it generates with what was posted with the download link.

but the util in the OP looks nice and easy.
[Thunderbolt General] afinita:
Estrong's file explorer can do it, too. Properties, Checksum.

[Thunderbolt General] hadi_xman:
After reading it i m confused about the first point.. that what md5 sums i have to copy in the clipboard.. please elaborate..
[Thunderbolt General] leoingle:
For my windows computer, I use HashTabs. Puts a tab under properties for the checksums. No opening up an extra prog. :highfive:
[Thunderbolt General] CC268:
This is one of the best md5 checkers in my opinion
[Thunderbolt General] :
Thanks for the tip. Just installed it and it is fantastic! :good:
[Thunderbolt General] jforme:
Just installed HashTabs it is a fantastic tool, thanks a lot for recommending it.
[Thunderbolt General] miillaaad:
this thread is great and useful for me

tanx a lot

sorry for my language
[Thunderbolt General] xtil:
if the md5sums are posted in the download thread, that would be nice.
[Thunderbolt General] scramiro:
Sorry but don't understand the process. Form the developers page I have the rom in a zip file and another file with md5sum extension. With Solid Explorer I select properties of every file and feature md5 but always don't match... I use omni rom for n7000

Enviado desde mi GT-N7000 mediante Tapatalk
[Thunderbolt General] quickdraw86:
Open the file with the md5 extension (with a file explorer's text viewer or text editor). It's very likely that the md5 to check the rom against is written in text inside the file with the md5 extension... Use that value to compare against the md5 of the rom .zip.
[Thunderbolt General] fenixus:
on Windows you can also get an md5sum.exe executable and drop it into windows\system32 folder, then you can call it from command prompt (or powershell if need be) just like you would in linux, it can also be scripted this way ;)

link to windows version of md5sum.exe download:

http://www.etree.org/md5com.html

EDIT:

also, if you are flashing new ROM on phone/tablet via TWRC then it automatically performs the md5sum check before flashing - it compares against an *.md5 file (must be same name as zip file you are trying to flash and contain the md5 sum from developer downloads site).

[Desire HD General] 3x1at1on:
I am confused, what do you mean by sense lag? It is Home screen lag? Is it screen change transition lag? Is is app drawer lag?

[Desire HD General] sistraw:
Hi all, I've done some searching but haven't been able to find a decent answer to this minor problem.

Basically, contact pictures (stored in Google, linked to facebook for HTC sense) are no longer updating. Previously, when people changed their photos on facebook, that would eventually filter through to the contact pictures displayed on my phone. This is no longer happening, possibly related to GB update but I can't be sure.

If I go into the person's contact page on my phone and move across to Updates and events, I see the correct photo attached to their recent updates. However, if I then try to edit the contact and choose the photo to be attached, the photo offered by Facebook for HTC Sense is incorrect. Manually syncing contacts in FB for HTC doesn't do anything.

I know it's a miniscule problem in the grand scheme of things, but it's annoying me. Am I missing any vital steps here? Is there a way of forcing a contact photo update?
[Desire HD General] georgito:
Common issue with gb, just try delete Facebook for htc account and login in again, and then sync. It was help to me..
[Desire HD General] sistraw:
Thank you georgito. I should have said that I've already been through that process once and, yep, it reloaded the pictures correctly the first time. Thing is, I seem to be stuck with those pictures now, so it's still not actually updating on the fly. I don't fancy deleting and reinstating the account every time I want to update photos!

Should also have said I'm on stock rom, etc. For now.
[Desire HD General] georgito:
It's not just stock ROM problem, I had several cooked roms based on android 2.3. 3 and all shows same problem...
[Desire HD General] sistraw:
Okay so. Sounds like I'll just have to get used to it. Wish I'd never noticed! Thanks again.
[Android Software Development] beastaki23:
I have been trying to find a music player for some time, but I couldnot find a suitable for me. So I made mine and I am posting so you can use it if you like. This is a mp3 player which has these feautures:

- search (using the search button)

- can navigate to folders and see the songs (mp3, wav for now)

- add them to the playlist by clicking the icon on the left

- add the entire folder and subfolders by clicking the folder icon

- play songs by clicking the rest of the song

- view the playlist (the third button on top)

- choose random play or one song after the previous (from the playlist) (random is the default)

- choose non-stop music (when the playlist is over, restarts the playlist)

- save playlists and load them anytime

- delete from plalist by long clicking the song from the playlist

- a bar to navigate to any time in the current song

- View the songs by filename as in your PC.

- no ads

You can change from playlist to browser view by clicking the third button on top.

The default folder is /sdcard/Music/ so I suggest move the songs there within their folder

You can go up one folder by clicking back on your device.

It is created for 320x240 resolution.

v0.5

- fixed major bug with playlist and play songs.

- now folders an files are to be seen alphabetical.

v0.6

- better interface

- now mymp3 comes with an icon

- no title bar means more space for the list :)

v0.65

- fixed bug sometimes adding folders(maybe not even noted it)

- feels like pressing buttons now

- minor other bug-fixes

Hope you enjoy this as much as I do

[Android Software Development] EnsconcE:
can you also add functionality that when you play random and the music player is closed, the next time you start the app the previously random played songs arent played again until all the songs in the playlist are played? Closing the app in that way does not make him start fresh. It is to prevent playing the same song much more often than other songs.
[Android Software Development] beastaki23:
This plays the songs just once. I think you mean to remember the last playlist when you start the app? (and the songs that already been played?)
[Android Software Development] EnsconcE:
Yeah, but then you need to be able to randomize the list. Besides that, when a list is very very long, it is no fun to scroll to the right song.
[Android Software Development] beastaki23:

[HTC EVO 3D] ninoriff:
NONE!!! Actually I am seeing a minor performance drop, cant top over 4MBS vs the EVO 4G at 5MBS.. whats even more weird is that when I test a Clear 4G Modem (same Service as sprint) next to the phone I get 6-7MBS so I am wondering if there might be some WIMAX limitaions placed on the EVOs...

[Milestone XT720 General] bjlange:
Hey, so I've been on Dexter's 2.2 for a few weeks now and love it, but the oddest thing happened last night. The phone locked up so I had to do a battery pull (this isn't an unusual occurrence), but when it restarted, most of my apps were gone- including my launcher, my keyboard, my widget apps... A few are still there, in addition to the ones that came with the phone, but most have apparently vanished.

Yet when I look at the internal memory, it hasn't changed- there's still around 65MB left, which is the amount I had before this happened.

Any idea what happened, and if I can get it back to normal? I know how to start from scratch using OpenRecovery, I just wanted to see if you guys could think of a way to salvage things before I went to all that trouble.

Thanks in advance!
[Milestone XT720 General] 3rdstring:
Do you have a 2nd partition on your sdcard for apps2ext or link2sd?
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
I think what 3rdstring is suggesting is correct--your ext partition became dirty when you pulled the battery in ways that the automatic fsck on the phone can't fix. In this case, the phone won't mount it at boot to avoid causing further data corruption. You probably need to take your sd card out and use a linux desktop/laptop to run fsck.

I think Androidiani OR has a menu option to manually run fsck on the ext partition, so you could also try that.

If you don't care about risking losing the files, you can try to nandroid backup/restore of the SD Data partition. OpenRecovery isn't as picky about mounting sd-ext. A nandroid backup&restore of SD Data will create a tar (possibly containing corrupted files), reformat /sd-ext as a fresh ext2, and then extract the tar (with possibly corrupted files).
[Milestone XT720 General] bjlange:
I do have an ext partition, but I didn't think I was using it- I didn't create any directories on it to start using apps2ext or move the dalvik cache there or anything- I just had it in case I wanted to do these things in the future.

It makes sense that it's probably related to this, though. I'll give fsck a try and let you know what happens.

Thanks!
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
If you ever booted Dexter's ROM without bugfix v2 or later, it would have created /sd-ext/app for you. This is automatic in Dexter's ROM.
