[Samsung Infuse 4G] SNadler:
+1 to Stock.

Unless he and you want to be tinkering all the time with each other. :)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] iphone4:
Go for refuse 1.7. Good first ROM
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dalewest:
Agreed on staying stock

Believe it or not, I was seriously considering staying stock anyway (for all the stated reasons), but wanted to get an idea of what some of the 'better' (a highly subjective term, I know) ROMs were based on people's opinions, as a means of comparison. Fortunately for me, he got called out of town so I now have a week to live with the device for awhile and learn it's idiosyncrasies and whatnot.

So, unless stock proves to suck, (which I doubt), I'll keep it that way.

Thanks all for your input.
[Nexus S General] tevil:
Okay first post and sure this is off to a great start, because its probably like the lamest question ever....

I see the SD card partition on the Nexus S and for the LIFE of me can't actually figure out what its for.

If USB storage is for holding media and info then what is the SD for?

At one point i was getting memory errors from apps and it said SD memory at capacity or something like that and the limit seemed VERY small. I ran a cache cleaner and removed some clashing apps (i believe) and it seemed fine after that.

Is the SD the internal RAM?

feel free to call me any derogatory name you like as long as you give me a wiki or explanation. I tried searching the forum and google but it just brings up posts where people already talk about SD with knowledge.

thanks
[Nexus S General] krohnjw:
The SD card is a non removable flash storage device. It's the storage you see when you mount USB storage.

Apps will cache data to the SD card, this is where any downloads go, any picture s or movies you take, etc. It is 16 GB of general storage (separate from the 1GB of internal storage).
[Nexus S General] Sim2:
Think of it as 'built-in'. For all practical purposes, there is a sdcard, which behaves just as it would on any other android, but you can't remove it. I'm not sure if it is physically part of the internal memory or not. I suspect there is one 16GB chip that is partitioned for internal and /sdcard.
[Nexus S General] tevil:
i am a bit stumped then. when it gave me the sd capacity it was NO WHERE near 16g's. it was like 800mbs or something. this is why my slacker kept crashing out and giving me a memory error.

is there a way in the OS to see the SD capacity? I had an app that told me but got rid of it cause i think it was also part of the crashing issues i had.

so is what your saying the SD is what you see when you USB your phone to the computer? its that root DIR. In clockwork i can see a USB and SD dir separately i believe but ill have to check again

thanks

on a side note does anyone else have slacker issues. this is how the entire subject came up to me anyway
[Nexus S General] krohnjw:
Slacker works fine for me, always has (outside of it's poor ability to precache the next song).

For Storage go to Settings -> Storage. USB storage is the SD card.
[Nexus S General] Heeter:
What space you see when you plug in the NS to your computer's USB is the SD card.

It is not the root folder of the whole phone.

Under the "Settings -> Storage" window on your phone, the "USB Storage" is we are calling the SD card.

The Internal Storage is what the phone needs itself.

Here is mine:

Because of all the music on my NS & the fact almost all my apps are there too, I am sucking up approx 3 gigs of SD or USb storage space.

The NS is sucking up approx 800megs of space, of the 1 gig available to it.

As for your Slacker issues, Although I am not familiar with this application, have you tried just reinstalling it.

Heeter
[Nexus S General] tevil:
cool thanks guys.

just couldnt figure whyd they name something twice.

As for slacker i beleive it was a mix of

juice defender (which i may try again solo to see if its really that good)

ad blocker (which was jsut something i tried but never really needed, good riddance)

and like these two cleaners which i dont remember the names of.

Now i have NG cache cleaner which is nice and my slcaker seems to be normal again

wasnt sure if the adblocker was seeing the commercials in slacker as ads and trying to block them out causing problems so i got rid of that first.

as the other guy said the pre chaching was HORRIBLE at times making me think the app locked. but after those removals it worked fine with occassional lag betweensongs

[Motorola Droid 3] cerps:
My mother-in-law was complaining to me that when my wife calls her on her Droid 3 that she hears some "clicking" or "blips" and it can be hard to hear her sometimes. On my Atrix I have a noise suppression setting that had caused people issues with garbled voice quality so the fix is to turn it off. I tried looking for this in my wife's Droid 3 but couldn't find it. Does the Droid 3 have some sort of noise suppression/cancellation built in and where would I find the setting for it. All I've found is call privacy or something of that nature, but I'm not sure what it does. thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] mpabegg:
Hi guys,

I found many topic compa

I would like your opinion on weather I should get an HTC Desire for about $330 or a Milestone 2 for about $530, or even the Defy for the same $530.

I ask because the hardware specs are very similar for the three, but i know the desire is older, and the Milestone 2 depends on Motorola for updates, while the Defy already has some gingerbread ROMs available.

Thank you.

PS. Those are the ones I could find for a reasonable price where I live. Every other option is over $650.
[General Questions and Answers] unonice:
Htc Desire is a definite No Way.. Only 512 internal memory, and it's running 2.1.. I have Motorola Milestone X, and it's not the newest kidd on the block, but it has 8 GB internal memory, and running 2.2., also 1ghz processor.. I luv's it. Only thing this phone doesn't have is 1 - Front Face Camera for video chat, 2- No 4G.. I am not getting any other phone for at least another year, probably longer.. This phone is smooth and does everything.. I recommend Motorola Milestone X to anyone wanting an Android phone and on a budget.. Price is good and will drop again, because they now have a Droid 3..

Don't buy Droid X 2, it's a lemon, ask anyone.. Also you can put up to 32 GB Micro SD Card Milestone X.

Hope this helps. :-) :-)
[General Questions and Answers] mpabegg:
Humm, ok, so Desire is a no-go.

How about the M2 and the Defy?

One important thing that i'm taking into consideration is that I don't wanna have to wait for Motorola to have the lastest Android version, that's why I considered the Desire, the community is very active.

I read something about the M2 bootleader being locked, making it very hard, if no impossible, to use non-official android kernels on it. Is it really true? Is the Defy the same?
[General Questions and Answers] unonice:
M2, I heard many complaints about ginger bread 2.3.. Stay away from 2.3 ginger bread. Too many bugs.. I don't know about the Defy, I haven't experienced or used it, so I can't comment.. But any phone running 2.3 has issues and isn't worth the trouble. Stick with 2.2., until new 4.0 icecream is released next summer.. Save yourself some money. Just get a phone with 2.2., 1ghz processor or higher, and lots of internal memory..

My Motorola Milestone X, is actually the Motorola Droid X, just has a different name due to carrier copyright infringement. My phone running 2.2, has 1ghz processor, 8 GB internal memory, SD Card can hold 32gb extra, has HDMI, Hotspot, very large screen, ect.. This phone does everything..

Only missing 1 - Front Face Camera, 2 - No 4G.. That's it.

I wanted to get HTC Thunderbolt, but my carrier doesn't sell it, but once I found out this phone had 8GB internal memory. It was a go..

Wish I could tell you more, but I would never tell anyone about phones I never owned and used.

Good Luck. If you looking at the Defy, check the specs and compare them and the price to Motorola Milestone X, and HTC Thunderbolt..

PS. HTC EVO 3D is nice, my friend has it, but I think it's over rated, just a little bit, because it's the first 3D phone.. I wasn't impressed with the 3D, but it does actually have the effect. I can say it is very fast, smooth, and has Front Face Camera, and 4G..
[General Questions and Answers] jvf.registros:
Hard phone? Defy

Better machine... M2
[General Questions and Answers] mpabegg:
Got the M2.

For the price, it was the best deal...

For me, the only downside is having to wait for motorola for android updates.

I just hope I don't dunk it on beer, or I'll regret not getting the Defy.

Thank you all, for the help =D

Nice to have another Kernel Dev on board! I'll give your Kernel a try, will post results later on! :)

EDIT:

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this one seems to be based on the t18b-Speedmod-Kernel by Hardcore! At least this is was the Kernel-Info says! You should mention that in your OP!!

After reading the topic I decided to try it out.

However after so many issues I flashed with the latest Batista ROM and than wit the v1 (2.0) Cernel.

It worket preatty nice por about half an hour and than it startet to cut an freez for many second (as I was on a meeting I just thougt "ASAP I'll return to Litening and nimphetamine").

As I came back I almost forgot about the crashes and now the it's working since two days and my pattery lie did Iprove arround 50% or more!

[Galaxy S II Android Development] xinfinityoO:
can you tell us what value you used for the touchscreen fix.

thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fenomeno83:
freeze reason is because much aggressive undervolting settings doesn't work good for all..it depends from chip, from active process, from what you do, from temperature, etc..

I read many and many user setting, I got an "idea" about good safe power settings that works goood for everyone in every situation..

so, these settings are used now from 12 galaxy s2

1200MHz - 1175mV

1000MHz - 1075mV

800MHz - 975mV

500MHz - 875mV

200MHz - 825mV

I like a kernel with UV build in (I can set it by myself, but many user haven't knologements about undervolting), but better stay with "balanced settings", to don't have issue and have a good battery safe

ps: i don't know about GPU undervolting
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nikzDHD:
Extract the zip and flash the zimage.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jonny68:
ok right ill try that but any other kernel ive flashed you just flash the ZIP via CWM and you don't extract the zimage?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] nikzDHD:
I know that's the norm, but in the past when I was trying out a different kernel had the same issue, so just extracted and flashed and worked.

which will gives best benchmarks score ?

or everything will be best battery life worst benchmarks scores ;):rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] hoseth0711:
Wanna test too
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fenomeno83:
ok...they are less aggressive than mine...

is good to have a secure margin...all settings have 25mv+ than mine, except 200mhz...so, at 825mv is sufficient, but you can put 850mv to have a secure margin and have more battery in sleep mode(bacause now you use 875mv, that are "too much")

so, i suggest you to use

1200MHz - 1200mV

1000MHz - 1100mV

800MHz - 1000mV

500MHz - 900mV

200MHz - 850mV

what about others undervolting(like gpu)?

ps: i'd like try your kernel 3.0 :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jofel:
Just want to say thank you and share my experiences:

I'm using the release version with Revolution 2.5 and everythings fine.

Im getting really good Battery Life and no freezes :-)

Prior to this Kernel i used ninphetamine 2.05 and undervolted with Voltage Control and following settings:

1200 - 1.175V

1000 - 1.075V

800 - 0.975V

500 - 0.900V

200 - 0.850V

That are (on every step) the lowest settings that run 100% stable on my device.

What i dont understand completly: is only the cpu undervolted in the release version or the other parts too, like mentioned in the first post?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] piteyyy:
would like to test your 3.0 too.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rab1412000:
How would you compare this kernel to your undervolted nimpo kernel?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] jofel:
i am using it since yesterday evening, but standby seems to be a little better.

with the undervolted nonbo i got 5-6% drain in 8h standby (over night). (all sync on, 3G no wifi)

with this kernel it seems to be al little less. It was like 2% in 4h.

When playing games it doesn't seem to be a big difference in "hotness" of the phone compared to undervolted ninphetamine.

I must say that i just didn't use the kernel long enough to make any clear conclusions here. ;)

BUT: So far so good :)
