[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
Where do you see that? According to the kernel log only 16MB is reserved for VRAM.

Sorry my mistake. That's 3MB for SMC and 4KB for SRAM. That doesn't change anything though, there's still around 300MB unaccounted for.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] edgeicator:
There's ~300MB reserved exclusively for the OS itself.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
I should have rephrased. I am not entirely sure but:

Check the specs for the Hummingbrid soc with the same GPU. The GPU is designed to have 128mb reserved. The Razr and Bionic are the same. I am assuming a bit, but I see no reason that TI would gimp the gpu with less ram. I think its even more likely when I've seen Razr and Bionic owners have this same question (where is all the ram).

I am still looking for 100% confirmation.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
The Linux kernel should be using virtual memory, and not directly reserving physical memory.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
If I look back to every Android device I've owned, there has always been an amount of at least ~120+mb that cannot be accounted for. Even my Bolt with 768mb of ram only had ~560mb usable. So the OS has to be reserving at least some for itself. I don't think ICS is more aggressive for this, Bionic owners report similar usable amounts of ram as we do.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
If I remember correctly, the kernel logs that supercurio posted for the RAZR shows around 930MB of usable RAM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
It may show that. But whats available as usable ram to the end user is different.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
Is that running ICS? Maybe there's been a kernel change that affects how much memory is reported as available vs. reserved during boot.

Here's the dmesg screenshot from supercurio for the RAZR that I was talking about: http://twitpic.com/7c659r/full

The logging order is completely different from my Galaxy Nexus log. For the RAZR, right off the bat it reports 261888 total pages (1023MB) of memory. On my Galaxy Nexus, near the very beginning it reports 182272 total pages (712MB) of memory, so some has already been reserved. Not sure why there's this discrepancy in the logs.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
I believe it is ICS, yes. I asked the closest person I knew owning a Razr who has been fiddling with it. Maybe dmesg is different in ICS? Whats important is whats shown as usable to the end user. So maybe someone can scrounge up the above picture from Gingerbread and we can compare?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
Just checked a stock RAZR at a Verizon store and it also reports around 700MB of usable memory. So this isn't unique to the GN or to ICS, but I would still like to figure out what that 300MB is reserved for.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
I wonder if it's mapping the entire /system partition in memory. The size would be about right, 318MB...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coolbho3000:
Hey Chirality, the rest has been taken by the GPU, Ducati subsystem and the Ion heap. See arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-tuna.c for the bulk of it:

#define OMAP_TUNA_ION_HEAP_SECURE_INPUT_SIZE	(SZ_1M * 90)
#define OMAP_TUNA_ION_HEAP_TILER_SIZE	(SZ_128M - SZ_32M)
#define OMAP_TUNA_ION_HEAP_NONSECURE_TILER_SIZE	SZ_32M
#define OMAP_TUNA_ION_HEAP_LARGE_SURFACES_SIZE	SZ_32M
#define PHYS_ADDR_SMC_SIZE	(SZ_1M * 3)
#define PHYS_ADDR_SMC_MEM	(0x80000000 + SZ_1G - PHYS_ADDR_SMC_SIZE)
#define PHYS_ADDR_DUCATI_SIZE	(SZ_1M * 105)
#define PHYS_ADDR_DUCATI_MEM	(PHYS_ADDR_SMC_MEM - PHYS_ADDR_DUCATI_SIZE -\
OMAP_TUNA_ION_HEAP_SECURE_INPUT_SIZE)

That accounts for most of the missing memory.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mobilehavoc:
Interesting - what is the Ducati system?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bilalf021:
Hey but that doesnt explain why like 200-300 mbs are always in use by the OS from the remaining like 700mbs, I know widgets and that take some but like for exanple on my Xperia S there is only 697 mbs that showup and from that when I kill all tasks there is always abt 280+ mbs in use and in task killers I see android OS taking abt 70 mbs then whats the sharing for
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Read the above responses.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rusty815:
I thought it was common knowledge that the system reserves some ram for the gpu? I've come to expect this already after owning several android phones
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
The thing is, there is a lot more reserved for the gpu on omap4 devices. This confuses folks.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] ace9988:
is the atrix lapdock compatible with the razr?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Tikerz:
Yes, but not without modification because the connectors are backwards. Search and you'll find threads on this.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] 05GT:
Go with the Lapdock 500, just got one from the Verizon store for $267.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] msnglink:
Just got my razor today. Love this phone already. Also i have the atrix dock and extended the cables to work with the photon that i had and now the razor. Defently get the a500 if you want a dock. I spent 40 for the cables needed
[Motorola Droid RAZR] tk76:
It depends on your budget and needs.

The Atrix Lapdock had been available for $50-$70. Now it is more like $130. You can modify it at no additional cost to work perfectly with the Razr. You have to reverse the connectors and shave off a bit of plastic. It takes about 10-20 minutes and requires no real technical skill.

That said, the 500 works right out of the box and has a better keyboards and bigger screen, a VGA out, webcam and Ethernet port. It weighs 3.4lbs.

The Atrix dock has a 11.5 inch screen, weighs 2.4 lbs and has some ergonomic issues (track-pad a bit sluggish and the screen does bend back as far as I'd like.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ekook95:
Hi,

I currently own a rooted SGS2,

I rooted it yesterday and it has Superuser and CMW.

I am trying to flash İCS REMİX ROM V7.1 XXLP2 4.0.3 resurrection

Ive downloaded and put it into phone/clockworkmod/backup folder (or whever it is supposed to be)

when i reboot my phone into CMW recovery mode and i choose to restoe the downloaded custom Rom, it says it cannot find system.img cache.img etc etc.. and then it says it has skipped the restore process.

when i checked the folder that i downloaded from İCS REMİX ROM V7.1 XXLP2 4.0.3 resurrection, all the files are in .tar format except the boot.img

anyone know how to solve this??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Makrilli:
Some1 just had same problem, and I thinkbthe files are in tar format so if they are, learn more about flashing.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Limbo045:
CWM backup

It is a CWM backup, you have to put the zip file you get after unrar in the folder sdcard/clockworkmod/backup. DO NOT UNZIP
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ekook95:
I did that, and after I unrar-ed the downloaded file, I got a folder containing tar files , one md5 file and a boot.img
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bobgnarley:
I also had some trouble restoring this ROM and what worked for me was to get a standard 4.0.3 ROM that you can install from zip from the sdcard and then only do the restore from the backup as they say in the intro of that thread.

Hope this helps :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ekook95:
I currently do have a different 4.0.3 Rom installed from zip on my Galaxy s2,

so what you did was you did a restore from backup with ICS remix rom 7.1??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bobgnarley:
Yes I unzipped the File and copied the folder to the clockworkmod/backup folder. Then boot into cwm go backup and restore and restore from that date folder. Thanks to Wescrip and all the dev on that thread. They've done an awesome job so far.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ekook95:
I did exactly what you mentioned above, however I get error messages such as data.img not found cache.img not found,... then it says it's skpped it all and the restoration process becomes aborted...

is it because the files in the folder are in .tar format not .img?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bobgnarley:
That might be a problem with the Kernel or the CWM version you using. Not too sure.

What I can tell you is these are the steps I followed and they worked 100% for me.

1. For the first ROM i installed I downloaded this one - http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/GalaxyS2/roms/CM9ICS/update-cm-9-SGS2-01122012-signed.zip

(Thanks to max at galaxy S2root.com for the link)

2. I did a full wipe and factory reset from CWM and then installed this zip file from sdcard.

3. I booted my phone and let it start up. Then switch off again and go into CWM.

4. Then chose restore from backup and restore (as you will see CWM is now 5.5.x.x which might have a influence not sure)

5. Let it start up and bob's your uncle.

Edit : just fyi there seems to be a problem with the cwm that comes with that rom as it doesn't read the sdcard and I couldn't restore from it. So either you must flash a new cwm from odin when you want to restore to your old rom or install the first rom again so you have a working one and then restore.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bluecrush69:
Hi there,

I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 LTE (signed with Rogers) and I'm trying to figure out how to disable 4G on my phone and only use 3G. I've looked through some threads talking about changing the "Network mode" in the "Mobile network settings," but I haven't had any luck with that.

GSM/HSPA/LTE (Auto Mode)

GSM/HSPA (Auto Mode)

GSM Only

HSPA Only

Right now, I'm using GSM/HSPA (Auto Mode) but it still says I'm connected to 4G in the status bar. In GSM Only, it connects to the edge network (E) and in HSPA only, it will connect to 4G network. Anyone have any ideas of how to connect using 3G?

Also, I've noticed in my APN settings, I'm using the "ltemobile.apn" (the only APN setting I have listed). I don't have a LTE plan, so should this be the APN that I should be using? Since I'm not on a LTE plan, would I be charged more for using the "ltemobile.apn" APN?

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Phoneguy589:
4g is 3g/HSPA. If you were able to get LTE, the 4g icon would change (as long as you aren't on a ROM that doesn't have LTE icons)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] unit713:
Is there any way to turn off 4G/LTE completely and just use 3G to conserve battery life? I don't own a Skyrocket but my friend does and has horrible batt life.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] charleswcole:
On home screen press menu button and go to phone settings

Wireless and Network > Mobile Networks > Network Mode

Here you can tell it to use edge/3g/lte or edge/3g or just edge or just 3g

Hopfully that is not my ROM that allows me to choose that. Using Sky Ice Cream Sandwich rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dvandam:
It depends on the ROM. Stock won't do it and a number of custom roms I've used don't do it either, but I have seen some that appear to allow for that functionality. Do some research and find one you like.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] y2whisper:
"4G" is 3g (well hspa+) which is twice as fast as what 3g speeds were originally at (see 4, iphone) its more of a marketing thing. There won't be a 3g icon showing up with these roms. best bet is to choose gsm/hspa then it won't be looking for LTE.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] chemao:
HSPA is actually 3G. AT&T and Tmobile were calling it 4G because they had to come up with some marketing scheme to compete with WiMaxx and LTE. SO in short, AUTO HSPA... is effectively disabling your 4G.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] KnoxBNYC:
Okay, so I just bought a Samsung Galaxy 7.0 Plus Wifi. I have a 16gb microSD card in it (which I can write to thanks to another thread in this forum).

I looked up info on MTP and found that it works seamlessly with Windows, but needs an Android app for Mac. Okay. not optimal, but I can deal. I downloaded and installed "Android File Transfer" (v1.0.16..6656).

I plug my GT+ into my Mac. The tablet says it is initializing MTP, then switches to "USB Connected - MTP-Connected".

Sounds good, right?

When I launch the "Android File Transfer" on my Mac, I immediately get a pop up window saying "No Android device found. Please connect your Android Device with a USB cable to get started."

I've tried rebooting. I've tried different cables and different USB ports (although all of the above work with other devices).

What on earth am I doing wrong??? :confused: :confused: :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] garyd9:
It does? Ooopps. I've been using it all this time without an app I need? I hate when that happens. ;)

Seriously - at least for Snow Leopard, I'm not using any special apps and it works. I can't remember at the moment, but I might have had to tap the USB icon thing in the notification bar to activate something on the tablet (or maybe that was on my gingerbread phone... I can't remember now, and my mbp isn't available at the moment.)

Get rid of the excess stuff, plug it in... if you don't get the drives available on the mac, tap the USB symbol on the notification bar on the tablet and see if there's an option to turn it on or something...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] KnoxBNYC:
Well, that certainly is strange. I'm running Lion (v10.7.2), so you'd think it would work there as well.

I tried tapping the USB symbol where it says "USB Connected / MTP-connected". No dice. It just goes away like it isn't really tappable.

You did make me think to look System Information -> Hardware -> USB to see if the system at least recognized the tablet (Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus). It does, as you can see by the attached screen cap (the "Android Phone" listed is my HTC EVO 3D, and yes, I've tried this without it being attached.).

Any other ideas? :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] GB.Says:
I have an iMac with Lion and I could never get the Android Transfer App to work. But what does work is an app by Samsung called Kies. Do an app search on the Android Marketplace to find it. You'll find more reviews there, than at the Samsung website.

You will also need Mac version of the app as well. Should be at the Samsung site; probably under support, since you're now looking for a Mac app.

While it states that it will connect via Wi Fi, and I'm sure it will, I have my iMac hardwired, so I had to access my Tab7+ using USB. You'll have to try it to see if has the features you are looking for.

G.B.

And remember, talking dogs always lie.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] TheYorkiePower:
Use the USB ports on the Mac directly

I had this same problem with the MTP-connection message on my Gingerbread Android device (Samsung Galaxy IIS Epic Touch 4G, ...yes, it is a long name! I know.) with no acknowledgement of connection on my Mac Mini running OSX Lion 10.7.4. The curious part was that my Macbook Pro also running Lion was seeing it with no problems at all using the same USB cable.

So finally it hit me, I tried connecting the USB cable directly to the USB ports on the back of the Mac Mini and problem solved! I got on my Mac Desktop two new drives, one for the internal memory and the other one for the microSD card! (Both with read/write permission)

I must add that I was trying it originally through a Belkin powered USB 2.0 hub (7 ports), but apparently something is not working right for the Mac trying to connect to the Android device through the USB hub.

I hope this helps some of you out there!
