I always used Antutu
[LG Nitro HD] V@no:
Tested with SD Tools
[LG Nitro HD] bmxant:
http://www.amazon.com/KOMPUTERBAY-C...&s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1325197909&sr=1-11

Think this is worth it?
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
I am getting an average of 2.9MB/s Write and 11.1MB/s Read. Seems like a typical class 2 card. Took it a while to run the test too since it's so slow lol.
[LG Nitro HD] WashRob78:
I got 5.4MB/s write, 15.5MB/s read (Antutu) on the 16GB Class 2 card from my Captivate that I wiped and stuck in the Nitro and gave the one that came with it to my Captivate (running hacksung's ICS). Is the included card that bad?
[LG Nitro HD] Namuna:
According to AnTuTu:

3.4 MB/s write

>50 MB/s read

According to SD Tools:

5.7 MB/s write

20 MB read

Nothing like some consistency between utils.
[LG Nitro HD] V@no:
That just crippled my trust in AnTuTu's tests...sorry but there is no microSD card with >50mb/sec read speed, it's impossible.
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Ran it on SD Tools:

Write: 5.3 MB/s

Read: 14.6 MB/s

Ran it on Antutu again:

Write: 2.8 MB/s

Read: 10.8 MB/s

To me, Antutu's results makes more sense. It is closest to the real results I get when uploading files to the SD card. Read speed is of no importance to me cuz it will always be fast enough. I might try to stop by the store tomoro n speak with the lady who helped me n ask her if she can check the other phones to see wat is in those phones. If there is a good one in one of them, I'll request to have it and make a swap :D
[LG Nitro HD] V@no:
Copying to/from the card through usb is not "real results" ;) It's like testing hard drive speed through LAN...
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Lol! True, but that is generally the reason behind read/write speed, is how fast u can access the content or write to the card :p hehe

Anywho, just wondering, would reformatting the drive on a pc using default settings make a difference? I wonder if it's the way the phone formats the card that is causing the slowness on it. I should try this tomorrow at work.
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Ant, look at this...might wanna grab it while they have it on sale for the new year ;)

[LG Nitro HD] V@no:
I've been monitoring NE prices on 32gb C10 cards for 2 month now, there was a card with 25 read, 17 write (and users confirmed) for $49. I've been waiting for the price get to $40 then I'd buy...well, the card is gone now, sold out...crap!
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
I think I should save up and just get a class 10 32GB card. I'm down to 1.8 gigs left on this 16 gig card and that will not even be enough once I add more music/video/pics....Blah!
[LG Nitro HD] bmxant:
Thanks for the link, still not sure what I want to grab yet. I probably won't need more than 16GB to be honest.
[LG Nitro HD] bmxant:
I noticed that the stock MicroSD card can't take much of a beating, the speeds are slightly declining.

If you don't need more than 16GB, check this out http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-...Adapter/dp/tech-data/B0058GH4U0/ref=de_a_smtd

Great reviews and great benchmarks!
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Ran a couple of tests again, just to see the state of the sd card now:

SD tools: W-5.8MB/s

R-14.3MB/s

Antutu: W-3.2MB/s

R-11.0MB/s

Mine seems to still be in the same state, though I won't doubt what u said Ant. This seems to be a cheaply made SD Card...I'm actually a bit worried about the files in it rite now. And it's too freaking slow to do a backup of.

I can't really go with 16GB. I'm down to 1.5GB of space left. I looked around at Class 10 32GB microSD's and it seems the cheap ones are cheap for a reason, they tend to either corrupt or completely fail in a fairly short period of time. The reliable ones get really expensive. So I'm thinking of either getting a class 6 or just go with a class 4 32GB microSD. The speeds are decent enough to not put you to sleep while waiting for it :D
[LG Nitro HD] bmxant:
Damn right it's slow! It's definitely slowing down the camera as well.

My latest bench was fairly similar to yours.

2.9 W

11.0 R

Terrible.

But yeah, those reviews man.....absolutely terrible. I was kind of surprised at the AmazonBasic reviews, pretty impressive compared to the big name 16GB class 10's.

Edit: This should work http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Mobile-MicroSDXC-Memory-Adapter/dp/B005V7WIA2 :p:p:p @ the price

Edit2: Check out this great post I found http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1150369

Edit3: Stock MicroSD benchmarked from phone

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1315629&CatId=7207 This is rated very good for a class 10 ($30 more on Amazon)
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Yeah, expect we can't use an SDHC XC card in our phones lol.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
re: camera shutter lag i snagged the HDR camera app on special 75% off = 0.99$ and recommended, btw. heads-up though, it has a fruity icon, if that sort of thing bothers you. :-)

The reason I bring this up is that it uses true exposure bracketing, not sw tricks, to accomplish HDR and it snaps off the 3 bracketed shots within milliseconds of each other with the stock card.

Not saying the stock card is NOT sub-par, just that it appears the shutter lag is largely a LG sw issue. I'm still getting a class 10 32g, be handy to have around, might as well store it in my phone!
[LG Nitro HD] bmxant:
It works in the SG2 :cool:

@ Scott0: Make sure it's the Patriot LX or the Samsung I linked if you're set on getting a Class 10 card, all of the rest are much slower than a Class 2/4 for smaller files.
[LG Nitro HD] ThePainOfNever:
I had a 16GB Class 4 in mine - NCIX had a sale on a 32GB Adata Class 10 so I swapped it out - it definitely made a difference performance-wise in all areas. No more stuttering music while loading apps/GPS data off the SD card. A Class 10 MicroSD with this phone is definitely a good investment...
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
Just to offer another reply...

I got my Nitro today directly from BestBuy online and it came with a SanDisk class 4 16GB card. I downloaded Antutu and ran a check. It showed 4.4 write speed and 13.0 read speed.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
will do, thanks!
[LG Nitro HD] Sharpshooterrr:
Anyone got Sandisk's 64gb micro sdxc class 6 card working ok on the Nitro?
[LG Nitro HD] bmxant:
I'd like to know this as well, even if the 64gb cards are $125+
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Yup you're one of the lucky ones to get a sandisk card in it :D some of us only gets a class 2 card haha.
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
Another question regarding the SD card. Why is there no "file manager" or some other sort of shortcut to access my SD card? I have to plug into the computer to view the contents of the SD card, but on the Samsung devices I've used I could access it on the phone.
[LG Nitro HD] theoski:
Everything is in /mnt/sdcard
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
I picked up the Amazon class 10 that Bmxant recommended, it's speedy and is working well for me.

http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-...H4U0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1326660581&sr=8-1
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
That's just it... I have no way of finding that. There is no icon to get me there, no option in my settings or anything. Unless I'm just missing it... :confused:
[LG Nitro HD] bmxant:
I wonder how this card is...

Specs say 24 Read / 21 Write

http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-MB-MP...6?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1326688656&sr=1-6

Pretty expensive though
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Pretty colors :D
[LG Nitro HD] dbjungle:
Install Root Explorer from the market. Or if you're lucky enough to find Adao File Manager, but it's no longer on the market.

I ordered a 32 GB Patriot Class 10 microSD. Can't wait for it to get here.
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
go to the android market and search file manager, you should be able to find some good ones for free. However, if you want full functioning file browser, then yes get the root explorer. the best there is out there.
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
I looked for root file manager, but didn't want to pay for that. I'll try out a free one. It just seems weird that it isn't in the stock software.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
astro file manager worked well for me, it's free.
[LG Nitro HD] dbjungle:
It is kind of weird, but it's comparable to an iPhone in that regard. Root Explorer and Astro are both good.
[LG Nitro HD] bmxant:
Just found this deal

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1315633&CatId=7207

Shipping time sucks, but I'm going to order it anyways. The 32GB Samsung Class 10 was my first choice, but it's not in stock. I doubt I'll need that much space anyways.

Edit: Having second thoughts, there's a chance it could take nearly a month to get here......WTF
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
A month? Good grief!

How about this one?

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820220546
[LG Nitro HD] bmxant:
Garbage, the only 32GB Class 10 I would ever consider is the Samsung. It's the only one with good enough 4k write speeds.
[LG Nitro HD] dbjungle:
The one I ordered is a Patriot 32 GB Class 10. I haven't been able to try it out yet, I'll give it a shot this weekend.
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
Patriot cards are garbage? I don't know much about memory, but I've seen several people talk about getting patriot cards.
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Read the reviews on that newegg post. The Patriot 32GB class 10 seems to fail a lot on people and some even say the RW speeds are slower than a class 4 of equivalent size, probably of a different company.

dbjungle, be careful, make sure u back up your contents constantly in case it fails on u.

Obviously, there might be those lucky ones with a good chip, but it seems in general it tends to fail.
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
I just learned to stay away from Patriot cards I guess. Lol

On another note... I downloaded Astro File Manager and love it. The question, though, is where do I find all of the apps? I moved a couple of files that I downloaded from emails into the "download" folder, but when I exited and opened the "downloads" app they weren't there. I'm confused.
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Yeah, the download app is sorta "bull****" kinda app. sometimes it doesn't even show u the file u downloaded via the browser, let alone the files u place in the download folder. I just manually search for it using an explorer app.

Btw, the same thing happens on the HTC rezound, so I don't know if its the new gingerbread or wat but it was working on my atrix.
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
Oh, this is a little of topic, but I was a little jealous when I found out the SU640 has astro built in.
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
How about Lexar cards? I just got this email offer from Amazon.

Good price, I saw this as well. The only problem is the 4K Write speeds.

Well my SD card ignorance hit me. I don't know squat about those benchmark results.
[LG Nitro HD] bmxant:
The faster the 4K write speeds, the quicker the SD card will be to write smaller files.

It really depends what you're using it for.

I've been waiting for this to go on sale

[LG Nitro HD] Namuna:
I saw the deal for that today as well, but sifting through the reviews there's a lot of rumblings about it not living up to the class10 spec. With a little more searching I found the Sandisk 32gb Class4 (tested to be FASTER than other manufacturers Class10 !!) for $30.69

http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-micro...0AD6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1326987846&sr=8-1

**MAKE SURE you are buying from Amazon, click on the Amazon seller on the right if need be...Don't take the chance of getting a fake from a 3rd party.
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
I think I will just wait until I exceed the limits of my Sandisk 16GB class 4. I'm real happy my phone came with it installed. It was a pleasant surprise because the Skyrocket comes with nothing.
[LG Nitro HD] bmxant:
The Skyrocket comes with 16GB of Internal Memory, I'd rather have that than 4GB of Internal Memory + a 16GB Micro SD
[LG Nitro HD] AllstarE4:
I just really like the removable memory. Makes it easy for me to move things around between several devices.
[LG Nitro HD] bmxant:
If anyone is still looking for a high end 32GB Micro SD card, I found the Samsung 32GB Class 10 for 52.99

My Patriot 32 GB Class 10 is pretty nice. I can transfer about 4 to 5 times faster than the stock micro SD that came with the Nitro.
[Blade General] suj69:
Just flashed my Blade with CM 7.1. Overall works pretty good with 16 bit transparency enabled and using Launcher Pro rather than the included ADW launcher.

Problem - When setting up my Hotmail as an Exchange account, HTML emails are only displayed as plain text? Images are also not shown. There is also no button to "Load more details" as I get on my stock Galaxy S, for exmaple. The HTML source code itself is not shown, the HTML just isn't rendered.

Anyone know what the cause/fix for this is?
[Blade General] suj69:
Someone must know the answer to this? And please don't suggest the Hotmail app.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] king2dro:
Can someone please upload their Infuse stock system app folder (/system/app). I am in need of those apps and can't seem to find a zip of the stock rom. I have the 2.2.1 i997UCKD5. Or if anyone knows a link for that.

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
I think what you're looking for is in the stock rom packages

download gtg's unbrick.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1116251

use winRar (or similar) and right click to open the package.

everything should be in the package.

i hope this helps
[Samsung Infuse 4G] king2dro:
Tried this already, it doesn't work out.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
You're right. I didn't realize the factory.rfs did not unpack further.

You might have to see if anyone who had odin theirs back to stock, extract it and upload it.

Can I ask why you need it?

Can you not just root your phone, use titanium back up for everything, odin back to stock and re-install your back up?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jscott30:
The factory.rfs can be mounted as a loop device in linux. Then you can copy any files you need.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dman3285:
Or just extract the factoryfs.rfs with magik iso ....20 seconds and done...all apps will be in there..easier than a loop in linux
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jscott30:
Depends on which OS you are using at the moment and how fast you type the mount command, really. Takes me longer to boot Windows and install Magic Iso than it does to type mount -o loop, but okay. ;)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dman3285:
One click....no typing...one click extract....I do it bout 30 times a week...in windows...open majik ISO...new...select factoryfs.rfs ...right click..extract..done...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dman3285:
If magik ISO is already installed then you don't have to install it...o_O....set it as default...evenness u double click on the file it automatically launches magik iso ...extract..done
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jscott30:
Totally understand how it works, and if you're on Windows, it's great to have that option. It's no better an option than I offered. It is just as easy for me to type, especially when I'm already looking at a Slackware bash shell.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
Thank you, guys.

Learn something new everyday.

I don't have the programming background for linux but I can do windows.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jscott30:
And D, I was just giving you a hard time. I'm more of a linux guy, and am surprised at how much Android hacking has me on Windows. I hadn't tried MagicIso, so thanks for the tip. I know that most on here are using Windows or Mac.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dman3285:
I use Linux to build and compile android....like catyrom....my other mods can easily be done in windows
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jscott30:
Well shoot, I just found out the hard way that I shouldn't do too much to a .rfs image while mounted as a loop device in Linux. It works okay to pull some files, but since .rfs is a proprietary file system, permissions don't stick or work quite like you would think when changing files on the mounted image. So, extracting with MagicIso may just be a better way to go anyway before manipulating these rom filesystems.

I have a Galaxy S, had some software issues, and bit the bullit and did a hard reset (hte 3 buttons) this didnt fix, so i flashed (no PIT) and this didnt fix

so i've done the PIT + the 3 files, then straight after clear cache, hard reset, reboot and there is still apps (the ones causing the problem) and personal information, like my emails and my email account still on there, all my routers i'm connected to etc.

how do i get this phone back to factory fresh, no information on it apart from the basic. just like it was the first time i switched it on?
