It is fixed for me at RC4.2 . Speeds around 7-10mb/s
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Taranis:
AOKP build 23 beta 2.1 with latest Glitch

I noticed that when I'm copying files to SD, the phone CPU usage is high.

Maybe phone want to scan files that are currently writed on SD and that's the reason of slow transfer?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kunjar:
Ive been suffering slow USB transfer using TeamHackSungs CM9 alpha since the first build. Transfer rates are around 1-1.5mb/s.

Using stock Samsung ROMS (Gingerbread) id get around 5-6mb/s consistently.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rensan3k:
No problem on speed on RC 4.2, almost same as the speed I'm getting when using stock rom.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nemanja066:
USB Transfer Speed is too slow (only when transfer data from computer to phone - about 2.5 mb/s)! When transfer data from phone to computer , speed is near 10 mb/s! ;)

Team ICSSGS 4.0.3 RC4.2 with semaphore 0.9.1

What is the problem!? how and what needs to be adjusted to work properly! on stock [kernel] everything is fine! :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] m4rcus:
soooooooooo...

no fix? Slim ICS 3.1 + semaphore .0.9.8 - 2,5 mb/s max. =/
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Tatsuya79:
I was wondering if this was fixed in any particular Rom, guess not yet.

I also have around 2MBs instead of 10 on my card.

It's perhaps not just USB transfer: when I browse through my MP3 located on my external SD with Mortplayer it always hang for several seconds. I have to cancel the force close message and then I can continue browsing...

It always happened on ICS, my main issue atm.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] XeoNoX:
this problem with the slow transfer has been going on for a while, it is a problem with the kernel as most kernels have this problem, there are maybe 1 or 2 that dont. It seems that devs are just having a problem tracing down the root of the problem. but yes it is a very annoying problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ronma1:
In AOKP (ICS) and MIUI (GB) with both internal and external SD the speed was around 1-2.5MB/S

with samsung based rom the speed is around 7-10MB/SEC
[Galaxy S I9000 General] shenoyjoseph:
Even i m also observed some ics rom have slower transfer rate while transfering the file to the phone
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MrAndroid12:
I get about 2MB/s (bothways) with 3.X kernel and around 9-10MB/s write & 10-12MB read (transferring data to computer) with .35.7 samsung kernel.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] awandroid89:
im using semaphore and also got teh problem...so its maybe not the rom.:confused::confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cdmackay:
People using recent CM9 nightlies are reporting improved speeds...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] XeoNoX:
its not the rom its the kernel people choose..here is proof that it is indeed a kernel problem and not a ROM problem...for those with captivate flash " [Kernel]-SGH-i897_Captivate-4.0.3.257190.zip " kernel ontop of your ICS ROM and u will see the normal speeds restored. i wish the newer and more popular kernels would fix this issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] drnbrk:
I use it Infinitum v2. Transfer speed 2~3 MB / per second.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] olszan:
switch to DK 3 and all your issues with slow usb speed will be history... I flashed this rom from RC4.2 which is less stable. try DK3 and see the difference
[Galaxy S I9000 General] S1lv3r H4wK:
I still think its a ICS bug lazy google engineers needs to get off their lazy cheeks and patch!:p
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ak:
Slow

The problem is the kernel ,,, i used devil kernel and the transfer speed is good (5mb). :o
[Galaxy S I9000 General] krooooolik:
Anarkia, thanks for your unofficial AOKP release :>

All, I confirm: it seems to be kernel related. AOKP with IcyGLITCH suffers from slow SD transfers, but Anarkia's release, based on the same AOKP rom, but with different kernel (Devil) - problem gone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] montyx:
I wouldn't like to change my rom because of the USB speed issue. I like the stock rom, but this is very annoyable. 2.5GiB copiing over for more than half an hour... :mad:
[Motorola Droid Bionic] v8s10chevy:
I don't know if this is the correct area to post this however,

I am now able to watch hbo go on my big screen!

I downloaded "xternal display" from the market then ran the program,

Then when I plug in my hdmi cable I choose "gallery" then hit the home key,

Then open hbo go app and watch movies! Not the best quality but it works for me!

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nednapalm:
Anyone tried BBC iPlayer yet in HD?

You have to tell the browser to use the desktop site but the HD streaming is perfect!! I've seen laptops not manage it that smooth!

In love with my TFP!!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ToneyEricsson:
Where did you get the bbc iplayer from I go on the market and its not there :confused:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dgjl:
How do you do it, I can't find the instruction?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ToneyEricsson:
Something I am finding are many Android apps are not optimised for Tabs only showing in portrait mode when keyboard is attached.

Regarding the BBC iPlayer app I'm in the UK and its not showing in the market. Did you install the .apk rather than from the market? It's not showing in the market for me.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] italia0101:
hes not saying the app

. He's talking about the website, and he's right, it works great now. Just request the desktop version of the website and then choose HD channel... works amazingly, and it was crap on honeycomb, so thanks I cs!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Danny-B-:
He's talking about watching the iPlayer via the web browser, which should work fine if you make the browser display pages as a desktop computer.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] parker7:
it works great, thanks for the heads up.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dgjl:
Yes, but how do you request the desktop version--I can't see any way to do it--maybe I'm just thick...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] italia0101:
stock ICS browser top left has a menu button... click it to access a drop down menu then click request desktop site
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ToneyEricsson:
Ah I see just tried it and it works in the normal browser in desktop mode.

Talking about webpages does anyone know of a good sync app for bookmarks so you can have the same bookmarks as on your PC?

I use xmarks on my pc's but I'm not paying a yearly subscription just to use it on a tab.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dgjl:
Not using ICS as I'm s/nless--With the standard HC browser I'm getting very choppy HD play back, despite streaming speeds of 10mbs... Opera won't play any iplayer content at all.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ToneyEricsson:
Really?? how about in You Tube in HD? That looks awesome!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
On ICS, bookmarks are now segregated between local and online. So I have my Chrome browsers synced to my Google account that the Prime uses, so I see those bookmarks. When I save a bookmark on the Prime, I can save it either locally or to my Google account.

So, syncing's built in as long as you're using the stock browser and Chrome on the desktop.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ToneyEricsson:
Ah I see what you mean I use Chrome also on my desktop and can see all my desktop book marks on my Prime now. Thats an awesome feature and takes away the need for any third party app.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dgjl:
The few things I've looked at are fine. It's the BBC which I'm having problems with--which is a shame as it's a prime use of the prime for me.

Browser synching bookmarks with Chrome

Is this with the stock browser on the prime?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ToneyEricsson:
Yes with the stock browser when you sync Chrome on your desktop to your Google account you can get at them from the Prime.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] italia0101:
with honeycomb, the HD playback is choppy, with ICS its smooth as butter +lard.

How come your not on ICS?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ToneyEricsson:
BBC iPlayer is working fine in my Prime browser I'm on ICS. I wonder if there is or will be any specific BBC iPlayer app for tablets might be optimised better.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] IneffablePigeon:
I think the app is just not compatible with ICS, so I assume at some point they'll update it to work. It might not be tablet optimised, though.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mithent:
Confirmed on HC. On ICS, it's a different matter. I'm in a two-Prime household, and we did some comparisons.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dgjl:
That sure is a shame! Let's hope Asus come up with the goods soon--I don't want to send this pretty baby back.

[General Questions and Answers] Archangel911:
I recently installed darky's mod and now i can't connect to my at&t network. Anyone have a solution to this?
[General Questions and Answers] Kagadar:
Try using a different radio. You can find different packages to flash using the DarkyOTA tool (assuming you can connect to wifi).
[General Questions and Answers] Archangel911:
alright now i got that fixed now when i make a phone call my in call volume i guess is so low i can't hear. I have to use speaker to hear the person on the other line. i checked in call volume and it said it was all the way up. hmm. As well what are you talking about when you mentioned radio?
[General Questions and Answers] Kagadar:
The firmware used to control the phone's radio antenna is known as the "radio". Different services providers use different radios, some work better than others in a particular area of the world. The radio is what is used to connect to the phone network and make calls, receive texts, etc.

Not too sure about the in call volume thing, I haven't had that happen myself.
[General Questions and Answers] Archangel911:
do very much appreciate it. Where would be a good place to find a good radio for at&t? i looked in darkyota but couldn't find that option.
[General Questions and Answers] Kagadar:
See if you can find a relatively up to date firmware package for your phone. I downloaded one a while back called JP5_JP4_U_JP3_101127.tar from a firmware list maintained by teamhacksung (I think), it is an odin flashable package and it contains a modem. If you open it with 7-zip or a similar tool, you can extract modem.bin from it and replace the modem.bin from another radio package. Its a little bit of a convoluted method, but it gives you the preferred radio for your area. Unfortunately I don't remember the exact name of the website I downloaded it from.

You may have better luck searching through the android development section of the XDA forums for your specific device.
[General Questions and Answers] Archangel911:
alright man will do. Thanks for the help so far. Your advice has been appreciated. What happened was i went to install shabbymod and it brick/boot looped my phone. so i found darkysmod and put that on my phone. So now i am trying to figure all this out from scratch now.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcnob:
Interesting problem after updating to an ICS build but I need to format my Xoom completely and start again from scratch.

Only problem is, unlike other android versions, there doesn't seem to be an option under storage to format either of the on-board SD locations. I've tried the factory reset option but storage is still showing all my files there.

The removable card isn't a problem, I just take it out, format it and re-insert but the internal isn't giving me an option to format at all as far as I can see.

Is there a hidden method of doing this or am I being a bit thick and missing the obvious?

Thanks in advance...........
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megabiteg:
I don't think they will let you format the internal SD, but I've found it strange that they don't let you format the external one...
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
Don't do it. If you form Sdcard from Xoom, you will destroy your Xoom...total brick. Sdcard is internal (hard drive, if you will) and if you format that you will delete all you system settings, bootloader, os, everything.

Just wipe your data and then flash a new rom, which will overwrite whatever you want to get rid of.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imachine:
Indeed it's weird - any ideas about how to format the external SD card ?

I can't seem to find an option to format the external card from within the system.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mjamocha:
format the external SD card

Make sure you are running HC 3.2 or higher. Anything prior to 3.2 does not allow SDcard usage.

Format your external SDcard, in your

phone

first. Then with the Xoom OFF, place the formatted SDcard in the Xoom and power it up. (give it a few seconds to show up in storage on your setting menu.) ;)

(I found that formatting it in the phone ensures proper function and a lot easier.)

As always; If this was helpful, give thanks!
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dwm34652:
Mjamocha, Hows that 64 GB sdxc micro SD card working out for you.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fromthestars:
Anybody? I really would love the option to start clean again, a wipe of the internal SD.

Would re locking and then unlocking the boot loader accomplish this?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
You could do that, but only relock if you are completely stock, with the right files for your device. Or you can do a complete wipe in fastboot mode, but you'll have to search for the exact command.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naggert:
Heya. I've been browsing the forums back and forth and I wasn't able to find the specific answer I wanted for my question. Here goes:

First of all: Great program!

I have a HTC Desire running 2.2.2. I’ve been running Unrevoked 3.32.

I get the following error message ““Error: failed to get root. Is your firmware too new?”

So, my question is. Do I have to downgrade my firmware? Or will there be a new version of Unrevoked that supports 2.2.2 any time soonish?

Or Might I in fact be doing something wrong?

I know about revolutionary.io but that doesn't seem to give me root access, which was what I really wanted.

I heard about this amazing program, for the first time, to days ago. Ever since I’ve been really curious and impatient about getting root access.

So, in your experiences eyes, what should I do? :)

Sincerely

Naggert
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stankyou:
If you got revolutionary to work but didn't have root, then why not just download superuser app on the market?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naggert:
I never tried installing revolutionary since the forum said I wouldn't give me root access. Thought it might cause more problems if I had to remove it again and all...

But you're saying it's possible to use revolutionary and then download "superuser" app from Android market? I mean, that would totally solve my problem :O

EDIT:

Been looking on Android market. It seems like superuser requires root access.. So that won't work, if revolutionary doesn't grant root access, right?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stankyou:
Revolutionary will give you s-off. You can practically do anything afterwards. Just read up before you go do the actual process. :D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naggert:
Ah.. Yeah currently I have s-on...

Hm. I will most likely try and install revolutionary once I get back home from work. However I don't think it will work with the root access and all...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stankyou:
Read this. http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/revolutionary

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naggert:
Hm.. See that makes my heart beat a little faster! Thank you so far... Think I'll spend the last half hour at work, playing with this little tool.

Thanks for your guidance so far! I will report back once my telephone is totally broken :rolleyes:
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stankyou:
Sure no problem. I've used unrevoked and never had the chance revolutionary so hopefully everything would run smoothly. As i've said earlier read up :D

Depending on how much tweaking you'll do with your phone, you'll eventually would want to s-off your phone anyway. Good luck.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naggert:
I made it work!!! :D

Getting the revolutionary beta key was really hard! :O All those I / l and = 0 / O 's...

I tossed it [NIGHTLY][ROM][GWK74] CyanogenMod 7 for vendor Bravo (HTC Desire GSM)

So far it's running smoothly. Phone contacts have been loaded and I'm currently copying all my old music and photos back over on the phone!

Only thing tho... No android marked... Guess I have to do a little reading on this.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stankyou:
Cyanogenmod doesn't include the market app but you can flash it or manually copy the apk to the /system/app folder since you are s-off. Just dont forget to change the permissions.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
Flash google apps
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naggert:
Yeah I see this quite a lot... Still not sure how to... I think I've installed Android Marked but I get an error.

I get this far:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] someone755:
Okay guys, I have a question, too!

So, I bought a used Desire (though the only sigh that it was used are a couple of schratches on the covers) and I just thought a good thing would be to root it...

So, revolutionary did its thing just about 5 mins. ago... Hooray, I have S-OFF!

But how the heck do I get it rooted with the stock ROM? I don't want to lose any data on it (although the only valuable data is the Temple Run savegame)...

I only need root to repartition my SDcard so apps could be installed there...

Any suggestions?

Hello to everyone.

I know that there are some similar threads in this forum, but no one is strictly related to the CM9 alpha IML74K.

I know as well that this could be part of the CM9 user discussion thread, but I'd like to share the best settings to get a good battery life with our S2 in a clean thread.

With Titanium Backup:

Frozen all live wallpapers, tts services and uninstalled Gtalk and mail.

P.S. Be careful, you need debug usb on when using Titanium Backup

Data on all the day. I turn it off when I go to bed.

Wireless on when I'm home and need to use dropbox or download a big file from my Gmail account.

I'm using CM9 01062012 (I know, there's a new one, but I've reached a very stable daily rom, no FC, no random reboots, fast and smooth).

Modem XXKL1

Now my battery lasts two days.

Well, when my girlfriend tells me stories about her life, it lasts one day and a half. :D

Important:

I've uninstalled Facebook app which was causing a battery drain. I'm using the mobile web page instead and I've to tell that it is faster.

Other apps installed:

Twitter, Maps, Sygic, Whattsapp, Beatiful widgets (with manual weather update), Xda premium, ...

2012-01-14 Added CyanogenMod Settings Apk v1.0 (from SGS forums)

How to install:

Download it to your internal SD card

Enter into Recovery mode;

Apparently its a bug. It makes the OS look like its working over time but actually it won't be. Its somewhere in the cm discussion thread if you want to see the posts about it. As far as aware its not fixed yet with any of the builds.
[Galaxy S II General] ciccio83q:
The same here. But I've noticed that using Fastreboot app, it seems to kill/restart stuck apps/processes.

Anyway, rebooting the system before the night helps a lot.

Unless you're not a modern vampire... :D
