I'm shocked how many learned tech people really don't understand what the SD cards class actually means and how that effects the performance in your phone.

Card class measures one thing and one thing only. Sustained write speed to the card. It was developed because vertain still or video cameras need to write at a certain sustained speed in order to properly function when using in burst mode or ultra high quality HD video capturing. You should be more interested in random access times and random read/write time which is what your card will be doing 99% of the time. Random read/write are often better or much better on Class 2 and 4 cards as mfg's often have to do some optimization to get the sustained write speed to meet Class 6-10 etc which degrade's the cards performance in random read/write times. So depending on how you use your card determines what is the best/fastest card for you. I remember even seeing a good post about this on XDA, I'll see if I can find it.

Found it.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Energ1zer:
Hello everybody,

and first of all SORRY FOR MY BAD ENGLISH !!!

I have my Galaxy S now since 10 Months and i try over 10 ROMs but

I didn´t find a ROM with a good battery life...

I really need help :(

Which ROM has the best battery life ?

What can I do for a better battery life ?

10 minutes ago i was with Wlan in the Market, and after 10mins my

battery lost 6%.. Is that normal ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graw91:
The Battery lost of 6% in 10min, is pretty normal, because the WLAN need very much of the battery life.

I tested many rom's and in my opinion has the Darky's Rom & cm7 a very good Batterylife.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Corbin.:
The modem controls the battery drainage, signal etc..not the ROM! Flash a rom you enjoy then CWM a solid modem that hooks up with your area!:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thinknchris:
6% is a little bit too much. I suggest you to check "battery use" in about to see who consume battery the most. For me, it is "Display". And just as graw91 said, WLAN uses battery a lot.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graw91:
To control brightness of the display is the Screen filter app very good.

Question for those of you who may have the Galaxy Tab 10.1 (new model, the more slim tablet):

In this model, Tab 10.1 (new model) is already installed Android TouchWiz Honeycomb 3.1 for more on UX?

No, give me that watching videos of this latest model ... I do not see any part of the famous "TouchWiz UX" ... (Am I blind and not see it? ... Or really comes preinstalled IF ALL skinny new 10.1?

Is there a way to calibrate the touch screen?

Thanks
[HTC EVO 3D] mrrogers1:
Menu -> Settings -> Lang&Keyboard -> Touch Input -> Text Input -> Calibration Tool

First do the "Reset Calibration" then do your own calibration is how I did it.
[HTC EVO 3D] awenthol:
That's for the HTC Keyboard ONLY. THat has no effect on anything else.

And no, there is no way (or need) to calibrate the screen.
[HTC EVO 3D] mrrogers1:
The dialog says for the tool says "Calibrate your screen for a better touch experience".

While I did not design the phone or interface, I don't know 100% either way and luckily, it can't hurt.

*If you did code the interface and know for sure, thank you. ;-)
[HTC EVO 3D] d12bn:
Thanks

Thanks that's what I needed
[HTC EVO 3D] jddunkley:
I wish there was a way to calibrate the touch screen. Anyone else having issues where you press the top thread of SMS and it goes to the 4th one down and then it locks the screen like it's touching there so I can't press anything else? No back button, home button. Only thing that works is locking it then unlocking but sometimes you have to do that 3 to 4 times before it will stop "touching" that same spot. I haven't hard reset yet but if that doesn't work I'm going to have them replace it.
[HTC EVO 3D] TheSeanR:
That happened to me a lot with the original evo, not as bad with this one, but it has been off a few times
[HTC EVO 3D] scramer:
What does this do? Menu > Settings > Display > G-Sensor calibration
[HTC EVO 3D] flyingwolf:
Are you daft? It calibrates the G-sensor, as in the sensor that reads the G forces the phone is being exposed to.

i am having problems using the keyboard in portrait mode.. it wont touch the p, or 0. also, it dont always catch on the sides anymore in landscape mode.. when playing games and stuff..
[HTC EVO 3D] intrlude:
It sounds like your digitizer (touchscreen interface) may be going out. Try to calibrate in the keyboard settings and then calibrate the "g" (accelerometer) sensor. If you're still having issues with p,0 put your phone in landscape mode where the home button is on top and confirm that area of the screen by pressing the comma or space bar. Good luck.

[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
You might also try a Gingerbread Rom as I've noticed the accuracy to sometimes be off on ics Roms, especially near the screen edges. Or, maybe try a different keyboard.

I had CWM Recovery since flashing Darky's mod on my SGS I9000. Then i flashed CM7 and maybe since then i had another CWM. However i have CWM 3.2.0.0 now.

After running SuperCharger script in GScript i was experiencing problems with CWM (Nandroid Backups were quite quick (although CWM said that they were successful) and they didn't backup all data (I've tried to restore a backup), also the time of backups is wrong). ROM Manager shows that i have version 2.5.1.2 (why not 3.2.0.0?). So my question is, how i can reflash CWM 3.2.0.0 (actually the problem is to find the files) through odin or with .zip file, so i would NOT LOSE any data.

Thank you in advance.

General information:

1. I have a MyTouch 4G running Royal Glacier 1.3 which I like.

2. I also have a HD2 running Motoman234 MyTouch 4G which I use a lot of the time because of the larger screen.

3. I prefer no contract so I buy phones from Ebay, Craig's List, or....

4. I prefer not to deal with AT&T based on past experiences so I'll be going to VZW when/if the buyout of T-Mo occurs.

I figure I may have less than a year of T-Mobile left, I'd like to start looking for a new phone now for VZW, what's the closest VZW phone to what I have?

Thanks for any answers!

If your s-off try a fastboot erase. If your not look into it. After a fast boot erase do a full wipe. Then reflash your recovery via adb. Then backup all your data to your pc. Then format your sd threw your pc and restore the factory defaults. Then reformat your sd threw recovery. No swap no partitions just fat/system. Then redownload the rom and gapps. Flash the rom then gapps right after. Then see if its boots up. If it does then boot into recovery make a nandroid, restore your data then and carry on. If not then run the ruu in zip format. Then update your radio, profile and prl. Then locate the hero root apk thread. Follow the instructions. After that you'll be rooted again so boot into recovery and make a nandroid of your sense rom for future updates then reboot. Then boot back into recovery do a full wipe and reflash your choice of recovery via adb then reflash the rom and the gapps. It should boot up. Hope this helps.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scesarin:
Hi guys:

I am really desperate now... my phone only seems to work with the official ROM, everytime I rooted, and installaed a Cooked ROM (GB ROM) very soon (in a minutes of using it) it will hang or freeze or reboot.

I explain all backround:

1. firstable I have my desire working for awhile with many cooked ROM (Froyo), after months,the phone started to reboot everytime, so I have sent it to the SAT, and they

changed the motherboard.

and give it back to me.

- The new motherboard is

PVT4

HBOOT 0.93

MicroO 0,51d

2. I rooted it OK (using unrevoke methos)

3. Flashed a cooked ROM => then is when the problem starts, everything after falshing is OK, but after a few time of usage with the cooked ROM, then the phones starts to freezes randomly.

some further info:

- tried with Neophyte ROMs Reflez 2.0.9,2.1.0...2.1.6 => same issue

- tried with LeeDrOiD V2.5.0 FINAL | 28th May l Official => same issue

- tried with LeeDrOiD GB 3.0.6 => same issue

if I go back into the offical ROM (by unrroting method) using the "RUU_Bravo_Froyo_Vodafone_UK_2.33.161.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_157522_signed" => Issue is NOT reproduced!

- In all cases, I did try to keep ONLY apps coming from the flasehd ROMs, to make sure any app is causing the issue.

- I have tried using another miniSDcard (8GB class 4) => same issue!

Is it anything wrong with the new motherboard?

Is there anyway to check logs or trace why is freezing?

Any clue?

Thanks for your advise!

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deivino:
So I had no luck with Cool Rom. It still freezes, but much less now. Also these freezes are very random now, mostly when screen is off. I haven't flashed jet the newest radio and ril, but I don't think it would fix it either. I was thinking about unrooting, but when I did, I got less than 30% battery error with full battery. So I have no idea how to fix it or what is even causing this freezing.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scesarin:
Hi Deivino

Since I've unsuccesfully tried with many cooked ROMs, finally I have decided to take the phone to SAT, which fortunately still on guarantiee.

I managed to unroot my desire and now running official android 2.2 what htc provides and the problem still occurs for me. I don't see no other way but to send it to warranty.

Hi Deivino

I did the same, actually many things unsuccesfully as you see in my first post.

Finally, I sent it to warranty, and they gave me back already a new device!

Now, it works OK.

So, unfortunately, the issue was not fixed at all, either I don't know what caused the issue.

Glad to see all the prl's in one place. I gave been trying different prl's you and bierce have posted over the last few months. I'm currently on 01337. This prl gives me the best all around signal Dayton, Ohio. But the funny thing is where I use to get zero reception I get great reception but now all the spots I got the best reception I only get mediocre reception. So it's kind of a trade off. But i wish I could get great reception in most places and mediocre where I use to get no reception.

I'll send you a pm and see if you can cook me up something.

Edit: Sent.
[Hero CDMA General] Bierce22:
muahahahahahahaha sorry kyouko i couldnt resist lol.

@rb3 you have a better signal because that prl uses verizon towers by default so if sprint is poor in your area then verizon prls will work mutch better.
[Hero CDMA General] rb3:
I understand what you're saying. But I'm getting spotty reception in areas like highways and near towers where I know friends with verizon also gets great signal which is why I'm puzzled. But the pub I always goto ill get my best speeds and I know sprint gets no reception but verizon does so it's the price I'm willing to pay to get data while drinking lol.
[Hero CDMA General] Bierce22:
that prl is also ancient witch could explain it verizon could have built new towers since then try the 52299 one i fly of that one its a hit and miss with them though so youll just have to go through them until you find one that works the best.

ive spent the last 4months testing random prls and radio combinations its become a bit of an obsession lol
[Hero CDMA General] rb3:
Yea i have tried running that one with both verizon and sprint radios and while better than sprint's prl it still gives me spotty reception in areas I know it shouldn't.

Yea ever since I ran across your prl threads a few months ago I have probably changed prl's 30 times lol. Definitely a fun obsession to have.

One problem i've ran into a few times is after I flash a new prl and reset my data profile data will never engage and the hands free activation step never works because there is no data to update the profile. This led to me having to run a ruu one time because I couldn't get data to turn on no matter what I tried. Just wandering if you ever experienced this in your adventures?
[Hero CDMA General] Bierce22:
yea i stay away from doin data resotores unless im on a sprint prl because verizon prls it dosnt want to update my data profile sometimes. but most of the time if i power of my phone and take the battery out a couple times itll work.
[Hero CDMA General] Bierce22:
if there any new people looking at this feel free to ask questions switching between different carrier prls can somtimes quadruple your data speeds its all just trial and error.
