[General Questions and Answers] SystemErrorOne:
This concept does seems tempting at first but honestly i dont ever think any other major company such as Apple or Samsung, ect. will come out with this. Besides, i give it a couple of years before the way smartphones, tablets and even computers start using a differnt technology for higher capacity in memory and disk space. DRAM used on PC's, and NAND flash memory such as on smartphone, all differ in sequencial speeds. So in short.. its not worth having dual sd slots..although i have seen phones with dual SIM card support (Nokia for that part) and also recent rumors about the iPhone 5 or iPhone 4S.."whatever it is that their going to call it", the Apple smartphone (iPhone5) is expected to be a world phone, equipped with a baseband chip for both GSM and CDMA networks, said FBR Capital Markets analysts.

Overall if you prefer a tablet or smartphone with a huge amount of memory, why not just buy a 32gb Sandisk micro sdcard + tag along the 16gb internal local memory and you have a whooping 48 gb total of storage. If your a movie lover just stream your movies dont actually download them.

What a funny comment considering the netflix app has been one of the hottest topics for months.
[General Questions and Answers] watt9493:
My phone already kinda has this implimented. 8gb emmc, 16gb sd card.
[General Questions and Answers] feletoch:
I dont think is needed and it will take more extra space, I mean, most fone has a easy access to the micro-sd slot anyway.
[General Questions and Answers] Alexander243:
There could be other solutions, instead of having two memory card slots I would like my phone to have 32 GB or 64 GB of internal memory. I think in the upcoming years it would be implemented. And add a 32 GB micro sd card to that and you will have almost a 100 GB of memory on your phone:D

Now time to go back to the past!
[General Questions and Answers] theo80:
Some Galaxy S II already has 32GB internal (most have 16GB), plus the card slot up to 32GB.

Galaxy S (which is quite old already) had 8GB/16GB internal if I'm not mistaken, plus the card slot.

Where have you been? In a cave?

[General Questions and Answers] CoogiMane1996:
Agree but but why not use 2 64GB Micro SD....I'm currently using a Samsung Galaxy S2 SkyRocket that has internal 16GB with a External 64GB. I don't know what it will be out or if it will ever be out on OFFICIAL brand but, Its a good concept.....Hmmm 64GB Internal Memory Galaxy Note 4 with Dual Dual and Dual SD...You just sparked an ideal :highfive:
[General Questions and Answers] gagdude:
Not really needed, because about 95% of people don't carry more than 16 GBs of data or so on their phones.

Also, with microSD cards now reaching 128 GBs soon, there's really no need for another slot
[General Questions and Answers] SchwassKIN:
yeah, but raid striping/mirroring would be nice. So if you had some super confidential stuff you always wanted with you but encrypted and redundant you would be set. I think its a cool idea.

internal storage plus two cards for data that could be encrypted and mirrored.
[General Questions and Answers] Daniel120201:
I dont think that you need all that storage :P
[General Questions and Answers] Roflwat:
Great idea!

It's not so much about the size (although 32GB more are always welcome!).

It's more about having a second memory, which can also be used as a backup.

Imagine the same concept on PCs: why would someone buy a second 500GB HDD and not replace his original with a 1TB one? :cowboy:
[General Questions and Answers] _Variable:
Yeah, and also dual screen!

[General Questions and Answers] neim81094:
Wouldn't that take up a lot of battery considering the phone has to read both sd cards? And now a days you can get like a 64gb micro sd card which is more then enough space for anyone's phone.

I think you're implying that the next dual-screen phone will be so awesome that you're gonna forget there were previous attempts to do it.Two screens,two SD card slots,two batteries,two two two...I want it too! :p

Seriously though.I can totally understand having 2 SD cards.But having two screens is equally useful to having a car with two steering wheels.Where dafuq is the point in that?Double the dose,double the pleasure sort of thing?
[General Questions and Answers] XxLostSoulxX:
i think it would be cool as for battery? um make a bigger battery is all. Take for instance the Galaxy Note 2 is 16GB internal + 64GB micro sd + 64GB micro sd= 144 and realistically your only getting 130GB after formatted and recovery obviously. But 130GB is like 30GB of games and apps (data primarily for games) MAX amount probably lower than that even. 10-20GB of music. Now if you have an HD screen or even 1080p screen like a tablet or HTC droid dna as of right now; HD movies those add up real quick my library on PC HDD is like 50-80GB. That right there just filled all that up. GN2 battery is 3100mAh just make a higher capacity like to compensate for it if takes a hit in batter just make one that would be 4500-5000mAh.
[General Questions and Answers] gagdude:
Bigger battery = bigger phone

It's easy to put in a large battery, but manufacterers are so keen on making their phone sexy so they never do it
[General Questions and Answers] XxLostSoulxX:
Note 2 has a 3100mAh.
[General Questions and Answers] gagdude:
That's because its 5.5 inch screen let's samsung put in a giant battery without making it thicker
[General Questions and Answers] XxLostSoulxX:
guarantee they could make the same size but probably like a 3800mAh
[General Questions and Answers] gagdude:
Maybe, but they would have to make the battery non removable, since making a battery removable greatly cuts down on possible capacity
[General Questions and Answers] Pennycake:
I think it would be a fine "solution" to just have the SD card slot easily accessible - lookin' at you, S3. That way you can just swap them for media purposes.

I don't really see the point of RAID on SD cards, especially RAID 0. Am I missing something here ? :confused:
[HTC Inspire 4G] rekehs:
i have a cleardroid rom,

i put in a new ringtone to my phone assigned to my family,

everytime the phone restarts the ringtone reverts back to default,

anyone having same problem?

how can i fix this?

TIA
[HTC Inspire 4G] biglittlegato:
What version of ClearDroid are you using? Is it a custom or standard ringtone? If it's custom, where are you storing it? I ran ClearDROID 1.1.21 for about three weeks without a problem. I only moved on because I wanted NetFlix.
[HTC Inspire 4G] rekehs:
using 1.1.4,

it is a custom ring i made using mp3 ringtone maker,

stored it on my sdcard.
[HTC Inspire 4G] biglittlegato:
I only used that version for about 10 minutes. Not even long enough to set my custom ringtones. I keep thinking your Inspire is having issues reading your SD card. I could be wrong, though.
[HTC EVO 3D] patelkedar:
Hey guys... I finally updated my E3D with that update. My sister and dad both updated theirs when they first got it.

I'm getting really good battery life. Minimal usage yesterday, but after 16+ hours I still had more than 60%... I even played a little N64oid.

However, my sister and my dad both get pretty bad - decent battery life. My dad doesn't use the phone nearly as much as me.

I wish I knew what settings are doing it. We all have the same settings but my idle time loses me like 2-3%/hr but for them it can be up to 7-10%/hr.

Anyone in a household with more than a couple E3D's getting this varied battery life?

Settings are virtually the same, and location isn't a big factor either.
[HTC EVO 3D] 87Octane:
A lot of things impact battery. If the settings are the same across all phones perhaps the drain is app related. If you really want to test you should factory reset all phones and then check. This way all truly have same settings and apps. I would bet at that point they all drain the same.
[HTC EVO 3D] chlehqls:
I did the OTA and my battery life shot up instantly.

Before the OTA I would have around 15 hours of light to moderate use of text, calls, and browsing before it hit 50 percent. Now, I would basically do the same things but I can go a full day before it hits 70 percent.
[HTC EVO 3D] life64x:
I bet you they use the phone more...calls..facebook....etc..friend of mine gets couple hours...and he plays games non stop.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kniz:
My SD CARD recently has been giving me some issues. It has worked fine since I got the phone in Aug 2010. I went to access my pictures yesterday and as they started popping up, an SD card picture popped up and said please insert SD card. No pictures could be accessed. I went to phone and SD storage and it said my SD card was unmounted. I went to mount it when I saw this, pressed mount, started to mount and stopped all of a sudden. Now I have an icon of an SD card with a question mark in my taskbar. The message says" SD card damaged. You may have to reformat it." When I go to reformat it, it gives me the message "external media in unknown state". Any ideas?

i wish someone could please help me with this issue because its also happening to me, it happend twice already on two different sd cards, i even took the sd card out and put it into my Samsung Epic but still it says the sd card is blank . please help
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradleyw801:
I used to get this message way back in June 2010 when I first bought my Evo. It happened exactly as you are describing. I thought my SD card was bad. So I moved all my contents to my PC, formatted the SD card, then moved the contents back. It may have been coincidence, but it helped, for a little while, and then the exact same problem returned.

All this happened before I had ever rooted. I then rooted my phone, installed a custom rom, and have never had the problem again, even though it was the exact same SD Card.

Are either of you who are having this problem currently rooted? Or are you both stock? If you are stock, you could try rooting, and installing the stock rom. If you aren't comfortable with that, then try formatting the card, and if you have a spare microSD try that just to troubleshoot it. If you get the same result with a different card that you know is good, that will narrow it down to being related to software on the phone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anthonyandrews:
I had a similar issue, I reformatted my memory card, and the problem has not returned. It has been seven months since then.

If you are formatting it on a mac, make sure that you set the partition type correctly to MBR (Master Boot Record)
[Epic 4G General] RushAOZ:
You guys are no fun. Being on here for my epic increases my stress levels. With robs leaving.. I felt I had to speak out. While I'm at it, I know you forum rentacops are gonna respond to this with off topic blah blah blah. Hey check this out. its because of people like you that this place feels like going to someones house you don't really like. This is a damn community. Have you idiots never been part of any other forums?? Because I have. And I've never been part of one with so many pricks that would rather burst someones bubble than skip past a thread or contribute to it. Its a damn forum and I doubt any of you even click past page 4 everyday. Every thread you post in you can easily get to with recent posts. So why even go into a thread you would have otherwise skipped? In the end the only posters left will be the trolls and rentacops with no devs left. Because everyone hates you. When that time comes, have fun holding hands together. Douchebags.

U know what's funny when we need mods ..........they r no where to b found .......
[Epic 4G General] RushAOZ:
Maybe the mods aren't as uptight about the forum like some of these people. These are the same type of people you would hate to work with. Its a forum. A way for people with the same interest to communicate no matter what the topic be. I've made friends on so many forums. Its because of nonsense forums that people come together. When off topic discussions bring out people who would rather have a bit of fun than be buzz killingtons. Wouldnt you all rather be friends than bickering fools? This epic forum is dying.. if more of us came together who knows.. WE the posters and lurkers could pick up in development where they left off. But no.. its all about saying screw you, your post doesn't belong here.
[Epic 4G General] lballer69:

I am willing to bet that my son is older than most of the idiot wannabe mods causing issues. I was actually in a post yesterday where someone asked a question in Q&A and got slapped for not asking the question in the app/rom thread. This is starting to get very discouraging. To many people running amuck. I actually sent a email this morning suggesting that each section for the forums should have there own "off topic" then maybe some of this BS might stop. I also asked if they like the idea and implement it to move ptfmedic's thread to it and sticky it. I for one don't even go to the main page no need.

I'm no self proclaimed mod.

But this was and still is a developers' forum.

Not a social forum.

So it shouldn't be that hard to understand why some people are rude when you post banter, not substance.
[Epic 4G General] stilesja:
Here we have people that we have never seen on here before that are reporting things as being "off topic" or "against the rules" that have been going on for ages and it is just the regulars here sharing with each other. But because we are in a down period as we wait for Gingerbread, and these dummies have nothing else to occupy themselves with, they think it must be all this off topic stuff holding back a new rom or theme coming out. But what they are doing is driving off anyone who has actually ever contributed anything and making certain that by the time Gingerbread drops there won't be anyone left, with the knowledge to contribute something great, who's willing to put up with the shenanigans of these fools.

They are too self involved to realize that the people that make this great software and mods that we use only do it to be a part of this community, and to chat and share and learn from each other. The fact that some random person can come in and benefit from their work is a side effect, not the main intent of their hard work!
[Epic 4G General] josidhe:
I think you may be wrong. If XDA was purely a developer forum, we'd have no reason for separate 'Development' and 'General' areas.

Like it or not, the mallcop wannabes lurking about can't pray to their personal unicorns and wish away the fact that XDA has grown into an ENTHUSIAST community, and general, unorganized discussion is a healthy way to foster friendly, casual relationships between regular visitors.

Dev or not.

There is a development section of the Epic forums. Maybe your time would be best spent there and not in the general section.
[Epic 4G General] nutswillkillme:
I completely understand that this is a development forum and we come here to read about android development. At the same time, the people that are contributing to the development section so far have been the people everyone's pissing off and booting/influencing to leave.

If a marine came back from IRAQ and ended up on CNN and said he's just glad to be back because he has a kid with AIDS at home and really needs to take care of him and would like to give everyone a site to check out childwithAIDSawareness. How surprised would you be if the news caster turned and say "whoa, let me stop you right there, these people tuned in to hear about the war, not your sick kid."

I think the problem with XDA, is demonstrated nicely with this comment:
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
That example is a terrible fit for this situation. People posting about things not related to the epic aren't doing anything special for anyone. They are wasting XDA bandwidth and burying actual useful threads.

The best comparison would be if Casey Anthony went on the news to tell her side of the story and spent the entire time trying to advertise her book/movie/insert self indulging greed.
[Epic 4G General] lynyrd65:
An attitude like that could come back to bite you someday.

Bandwidth? Really??? Collectively all of the content in this subforum's entire front page takes up 10mb at most.
[Epic 4G General] nutswillkillme:
This whole thread is unrelated to the epic dude.
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
You don't think I realize that? That I also don't realize that no matter what I say about it being against the rules and having no relation to these forums you won't be convinced you're doing something wrong? I'm just playing devil's advocate here.
[Epic 4G General] nutswillkillme:
All I'm saying is at least the guy contributed something other than *****ing about other people. We have a bunch of these threads burying perfectly great "on topic" threads that are just as against the rules as his... And here they sit.

Only non of you develop for us.
[Epic 4G General] lynyrd65:
What related to the epic could really be posted right now anyway?

Everyone is waiting for a new leak or the official rom to drop but this forum otherwise has been completely dead. If you have something to say then say it!

So far as I can tell Nosomo, and others have nothing related or on-topic to say either. All I have heard you fools talk about is how you don't like off-topic threads which is.... guess what? OFF TOPIC!!!!! So get off your high horses and quit trolling this forum into oblivion.

EDIT: Sorry nutswillkillme, I incorrectly took your post out of context.
[Epic 4G General] deano0714:
I think this forum needs more moderation first of all... and people need to take things less seriously, its the internet, there's always gunna be people who are insecure about themselves who try to **** on you... just ignore it, and ignore posts you don't like... if nothing nice is gunna b said then don't say anything... this has happened multiple times, we just need to be more toleran with people... we have done good before and we can do it agan we just need to keep it that way.... think about it guys th whole community is running off everyone ans soon enough no one will be left.... I come here for fun and to take stress off of my life and sometimes it just adds more when I hear a dev left beacuase of US. I just hope we can become more mature and not act like were all a bunch of five year olds.... just my 2¢
[Epic 4G General] nutswillkillme:
I hope you realize that the point I'm trying to make is the one you just made. You may have been better at it though.
[Epic 4G General] lynyrd65:
Yeah, sorry I misinterpreted and misquoted, I appologise. It's just threads like these put me into a rage which I need to learn to control better.

I just go off on whichever post I can latch on to. Sorry, that happened to you, (someone arguing for my point ;)).

However, your and my point still stand. What do offtopic posts, especially ones from contributing devs, hurt anyone?
[Epic 4G General] othan1:
Tolerance is the key. I was diagnosed with Asperger's five years ago. That's a form of autism; I am aware of it. I'm sick and tired of seeing that agenda being pushed by everyone here anytime I turn around. I have to block every one of those "autism aware" images just to be able to read the forums here. It's ridiculous...to me.

That being said, if you notice, I've never said anything about it, I have never complained (outside of this post) and never attacked anyone for supporting it.

That's called "being an adult and just not posting on something I don't like." Move on. Don't post, report it to a mod. It's their job to tell people what they can and can't post, not some snot-nosed 16 year old sitting in mommy's basement whacking off to the attention.

So if a retard like me can simply "not post" everything in his head, so can everyone else. Except this time...'cause I'm kinda posting what's in my head.
[Epic 4G General] nutswillkillme:
lol, you're good.
[Epic 4G General] Hooride707:
All the complaints take up more than the questions.
[Epic 4G General] tazfanatic:
I understand that part. Every forum has a "off topic" don't care what kind of forum it is. Right now things are slow because devs are awaiting the sauce. There is going to be "off topic" banter in all communities it is human nature. I am sure that some people do not go outside of the Epic part of the forum (me being one of them) unless I have to work on another phone. I think that creating a "off topic" section for each phone might help a lot.
[Epic 4G General] ghostrid3r:
Epic section of XDA forums = female on PMS :D

One can expect them to get *****y once per month (pre-release OS updates) like clockwork for whatever reason (complainers, bashers, trollers, etc..).

Just stick a gingerbread tampon in them and give them a midal (ROM) they'll quiet up for a little bit. :p
[Epic 4G General] shane6374:
Geez, This place just sucks! I've never been a fan of xda for this reason right here. If ppcgeeks had the traffic, I would go back to posting over there only. The OP was trying to make a point (an good one imo), he knew he would get trolled out of the thread, and of course he was right. I personally enjoy getting to see the human sides of some of the people who I communicate with on here. The way this place is going, everyone who's worth anything to the community is going to leave. Hell, I communicate with a good bunch of people here on gTalk already vs. the forum just so we can avoid the trolls.

The reason people post the off topic stuff in the general section is because these are the people they communicate with on here everyday, not the Vibrant or Evo or whatever other phone, fill in the blank. The worst part is that you don't just have to post an off topic thread in the general section to get trolled out of this place. I posted this thread here, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1148341which was relevant to the Epic, and a select few decided they didn't like it, or it was misplaced and decided they needed to rip me a new ass for it. Guess what, even though I don't have 2,000 post here, or anywhere else, doesn't mean I don't where to post things. I've been a member here for over 2 years, where most of you have been on here for 6 months.

You all complain that development is dead on this phone, well every time you think that, look in a mirror and you'll see the reason why it's dying here.
