[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smii:
Hi all,

I've currently got a class 2 Samsung 4gb card that came with my Desire, and I'm looking at flashing a ROM with built-in Data2SD (Gingerburst) but before I do I want to make sure that my card is fast enough, i.e. whether I need to buy a new one.

Bearing in mind that the classes are minimum write speeds, I've just speed tested my SD card a number of times and got the follow results: (TL:DR, averages are at the bottom)

PC 1:

Writing speed: 4.61 MByte/s

Reading speed: 11.5 MByte/s

PC 2:

Writing speed: 4.33 MByte/s

Reading speed: 11.5 MByte/s

PC 3:

Writing speed: 4.55 MByte/s

Reading speed: 11.5 MByte/s

SD Tools 1: (Android App)

Writing speed: 5.8 MByte/s

Reading speed: 4.9 MByte/s

SD Tools 2:

Writing speed: 5.2 MByte/s

Reading speed: 4.9 MByte/s

SD Tools 3:

Writing speed: 4.6 MByte/s

Reading speed: 4.9 MByte/s

PC Average:

Writing speed: 4.49 MByte/s

Reading speed: 11.5 MByte/s

SD Tools Average:

Writing speed: 5.2 MByte/s

Reading speed: 4.9 MByte/s

Is this kind of performance acceptable for Data2SD or do I need to invest in a higher class card? And play the roulette of trying to get a brand with a decent speed record (apparently Lexar, Samsung and Sandisk are the best bets)

Thanks - your help is high appreciated!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ayazora:
Based on that number, I think your microSD is a class 4.

I'm using Sandisk class 4 microSD, the benchmark speed is also around that number.

Right now I'm using A2SD+, so far so good.

I think you can use Data2SD without the need to buy a new microSD
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smii:
Interesting discrepancy between the PC/SD Tools read rates - I wonder whether the reader in the PC is a bit faster there.

It's definately a class 2 card - it's printed on it!

I've been looking at (Can't post links yet, so...) Play.com - Samsung 8GB Class 6 Plus! - £11.99 because the reviews I read for Amazon Transcend 8GB Class 6 (£8.49) implied that although the price was great, it actually performed less well than an equivalent class 4 card. Apparently the Samsung at least delivers what it should do.

I guess I could just suck it and see and try a Gingerburst flash with Data2SD on my class 2 card and see how I go! If it's okay, I won't need to update...

It's my inclination that more space is nice, though. ¬_¬ Shame I don't have more cash lying around.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuldaoo:
Printed picture with class number says nothing. I have Sundisk mobile ultra with class 2 and my writing speeds are about 9MB/s (PC)...

I think your speeds are ok for desire. It will not slow your device for sure
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuraikaze:
The class number printed on the card is just a `guaranteed minimum` write speed spec.

They will often be higher, as the cards are frequently manufactured for higher nominal spec, then batch sampled/tested. If a certain percentage don't test well enough to pass class 10, for example, the whole batch will be `downgraded` and may still be more than good enough for class 4 etc.

This is much the same thing that happens with desktop CPUs, which is why some models with a stated speed have very good overclock potential.

There's also a difference between the internal data bus speeds in the phone, and running it in a PC via USB.

I recently did some comparison tests on my Desire to see if it was worth moving Dalvik cache back to internal flash, rather than SD.

Haven't got the exact figures to hand, but the internal flash runs at an equivalent of approx class 5 or 6, so any SD card in that ballpark will ensure you don't get any speed loss with Data2SD.

Even something that's right on the class 4 spec will be fine - it'd be pretty much impossible to notice any speed difference.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattBooth:
You need a class 4 at the very least to perform 720p HD recording. Most recommend a Class 6 or higher for A2SD+ and D2SD/EXT.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smii:
Yeah, my 720p recording skips ever few seconds. Although weirdly there have been a couple of real-world times when I've done video recording (honestly, it's not something I do very often) where 720p has been silky smooth with everything the same as it is now.

I'll see if I can pick up a decent class 6 for cheap. Trouble is I don't have a lot of money and the cheap-cheap ones get bad reviews for being sub-class 6 standard!

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Ichihino:
Hello, I have yesterday bought an Asus transformer, and so far am very well satisfied. I have the device immediately after purchase Rooted also because everything I still ran a bit too slow. A custom rom this morning I also played on the device (prime 1.5). Now I would however like to know how I can install a live wallpaper on my transformer. Do I need to grab the background image in a specific folder?

Greetings and thanks in advance :-)

Sorry for my bad english..
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jonitfcfan:
A live wallpaper just installs like any other app would. There's several to choose from in the Market, although I'm not sure how many of them are properly optimised for tablet devices. Try some out and see how it goes :).
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Ichihino:
Okay, many thanks for the quick response:) I have now done. I had to specify in the settings, apps that do not come out of the market may also be installed. (:

Greetings
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] SystemErrorOne:
Check this out!

Hey i hope you figured how to install live wallpaper.. just like the previous member said "it does install like any other APK file" some live wallpapers are available on the Market but some are not. Example Below:

Check this out im pretty sure you'll Like it, Galaxy Tab 10.1 live wallpapers extracted, ready to make your Transformer that much cooler!

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=15654627#post15654627
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Ichihino:
Yes, exactly this I have tried to install (:

However, there is unfortunately still quite laggy ..
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] SystemErrorOne:
Probably and obvioulsy because its originally from the Galaxy Tab but.. i prefer just regular wallpapers not live wallpapers (LWP) because they suck your battery much faster, haha.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] ssj4vegita2002:
Pixel Rain is a great lwp that doesn't suck battery and leaves the launcher running super smooth.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Ichihino:
Thank you, pixel rain looks very nice.

I will test it later :)

Hi all,

a friend is just about to buy his first android phone and was looking at the galaxy s 2. After checking the sgs2 forum i notice that there are few custom roms available- so what are the best current android phones with custom roms available?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] roee88:
SGS II is considered new and still not even released in the US. I'm sure once it will there will be

many

ROMs available for it.

It is a fantastic device and I highly recommend to buy it anyway.

CM7 released a nightly build for SGS II lately. Cognition is my current recommendation.

[HTC Sensation] Jaywan:
Both HTC and ARX claims to be in testing phase for S-OFF. The question is who will release 1ST. My Thought is HTC will try to speed it up so they won't look stupid on their multi million dollar investment. I read some where people over seas are starting to get updates. HTC did say they would get it first, but is this update the one HTC is pushing out for S-OFF? Even if it is you won't be able to tell by booting into hboot cause chances are they want to to download a tool from their site that will surly void your warranty but give you S-OFF. Personally I hope our guys release it first as a slap in the face of HTC. But if HTC shocks the world and start the unlocking process for the pushed otas' their hard work will sadly mean nothing.
[HTC Sensation] GabrielSousa:
i think in 3 or 4 days AlphaRevX will release the unlock to the world
[HTC Sensation] klutch:
DAMN DONT KNW WST TO DAY LOL I AM SOOO FREAKING HAPPIE CANT WAIT FOR THIS.....
[HTC Sensation] artymarty:
I will wait for the alpha-Rev s-off.

Reason is that if you use the HTC unlock you void warranty and htc will have a log you did it.

If you use the do-it -yourself method, they don't know, and if you need to do a warranty claim then flash it back to normal first before you send it in.

:-)
[HTC Sensation] alprk:
I dont think it will mean nothing, as although HTC are unlocking. This is just the unbranded. Im not sure if vodafone for instance are going to allow s-off, the could stop with there customisation.

I am looking forward to a non htc fix, to allow me to unbrand the crap out of mine...
[HTC Sensation] :
Right then, one more post which is probably going to not be very popular, but I need to say it:

What I don't appreciate is this "secrecy" and "working in isolation" from the dutch team.

There are many experienced people here on xda which are quite comfortable hacking/modifying/scripting/adb_shelling their devices using the obvious exploit that has been found. All we would need is the exploit itself and we can work from there.

So which bugs? What issues? If the exploit has been found, it works, nothing more, nothing less. As you can see from the youtube video, the bootloader can be unlocked to s-off shipped, so the exploit has been found and works - this is all some of us need.

The rest is polishing/noob-proofing it and making it "all singing-all dancing", and that is the only possible reason I can see for delaying(not-launching) it.

So: great work you found it. Not so great you are not sharing it until you noob-proofed it. Actually, that spoils the fun for some of us.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
No, different lock
[HTC Sensation] nardone24:
Cant F-ing Wait!!!!
[HTC Sensation] smw6180:
Complete speculation. No one even knows how HTC is accomplishing their s-off, much less whether they're going to 'log if you did it' or if it's going to void your warranty. Personally I'd rather have a generic unlock from Teamwin or Alpharev than use HTC's, but it's because of personal preference, not because I am making assumptions that they're secretly tracking my every move and voiding my warranty.

Wait and see what they come up with, rather than spreading rumours about things no one knows.
[HTC Sensation] Jaywan:
No one has to know how HTC will get S-OFF. It's HTC the same way they locked it they can unlock it , but don't entirely know how they locked it so our devs has to figure out a S-OFF.
[HTC Sensation] wallah:
Yeah for that, F-OFF Htc !!! Thanks all the devs here on Xda !!!
[HTC Sensation] RADLOUNI:
Flashing RUUs

Hi Guys

Just a quick question on S-off/S-on and how it applies to our Sensation.

after we get our phones s-off 'ed, will all security measures be disabled, like for example can I flash an RUU from a different region? or is s-off just a launching pad for preparing other tools to enable what I just mentioned ?

I know that after s-off, we can flash CWM and then flash custom ROMs, but not sure though whether the country ID (CID) is still checked by RUUs after s-off

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] madsurfer1:
You will be able to flash whatever you want.

If you flash from a RUU you will loose S-OFF because the HBOOT will be replaced.
[HTC Sensation] deanesn:
I usually try not to post into threads like this one but couldn't help myself. I wanted to say how much I agree with you. So much for the open community we have here. I don't agree with this ironing bugs stuff. This is starting to sound like phone manufacture. We are community to share and help each other. The only group of devs that are open with the community are the cyanogen group devs. When there is a new code they release it on daily basis. They are very open to what they do and how they do it.

Prefect example of our open community is when team win release their exploit. Other devs took it and made it better for noobs to run within hours. Personally I like running the commands because it helps me understand these exploits. I'm not bashing any one here or taking sides just saying what an open community should be like. My .02.
