Why is there not some kind of shocking device implanted into cell phones to shock people every time they say something stupid? There is a mic there and speech recognition is sophisticated enough to recognize stupidity so where are the stupid-shockers?
[Off-topic] StormMcCloud:
Better idea, make stupid shock collars. Whenever someone spews stupidity the collar will shock them.
[Off-topic] veeman:
This reminds me of that South Park episode where Cartman gets the shock collar for swearing too much.
[Off-topic] 063_XOBX:
South Park is oddly insightful in a says what everyone thinks but doesn't say kind of way. So obviously we need shock collars in child sizes too.
[Off-topic] StormMcCloud:
Hahaha you mean the V-Chip that they implanted in his head. Yeah basically the same concept.

Yeah that's the one. I saw it a long time ago.
[Off-topic] 300k:
So, I had a local deal in trading my HTC Rezound for a Razr Maxx. We kept in contact via text. The trade was my Rezound for the Maxx. Then I was asked what accessories it came with, so I told them it came with screen protector , and they asked, "if you get an extended battery, you got a deal ."

So I said ok to getting the extended battery and ordered it the same day. Took about 4days to get to my house. I contact the person saying I received the extended battery and asked when we could meet. We agreed on the upcoming Saturday. Saturday comes, and the person asks if we can meet around noon , I said ok.

About 15mins later I receive a text saying the deal is canceled as the person is giving it to their father. So I say ok. I check Craigslist about 20 mins later and find the same person selling it. I emailed the person asking for a trade to make sure it was them. Same email, same location, and same number. My conclusion, I was lied to.

I don't have a problem if they decide not to do the trade, but don't say you're gonna do the trade, have me buy an expensive item, then lie to me about not wanting to the trade by saying you're giving it to your dad. Just don't blatantly lie to me that you're nit interested in the trade. The fact that they lied is more of why I'm pissed.

Was I wrong to be too trusting? Maybe.

Anyways, thanks for reading ￼

My head hurts. I need a drink......and maybe a wall to bash my head against.

Driver A is given job to pick up locally and take Customer B to EWR (Newark/Liberty International Airport for you taxi n00bs ￼ ).

Fifteen minutes later said customer calls and politely asks if they missed the cab or if he's stuck in traffic.....I call the driver on the radio and ask for an ETA to the pickup.... THE DRIVER TELLS ME HE'S ON THE WAY TO EWR!!

REALLY?!!?

Where's your customer you ****tard?

Is there a way to use memory in ur sdcard as ram for ur phone, so i can increase the performance. i think u can, so if u now how to can u post a link?

And i am using MikRunny rom
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] Hammerfest:
IIRC, there is a mod to use either a partition or a file on your MicroSD card for SWAP space... which is basically where programs that normally reside in ram would go when not in use... think its one by sparksco...

however, I dont see hardly any kernels with it built in these days... its a GOD SEND on my HD2 and Hero... Id love to use SWAP partition on all my devices...

hope someone more knowledgeable about whats out will reply
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] halrulez:
First this is the wrong thread for questions and answers.

And yes we have a few kernals that allow swap. But the rom as well needs to have that available from what I recall. Think cm uses 128 max though. I know there is a miui rom that uses swap here too. Does come in handy. You will need to reformat your sd card for swap if your going to use it. There is also ext3 and 4 and that acts like available storage space for your phone. I would only use 1-1.5 gb for that though. Some of these big games only want to go on your sd card.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] VICODAN:
One of our biggest supporters of swap has actually decided it's not such a good idea.

And it does not speed things up. It slows things down. Even with a class 10 sd card.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] B RAD G 296:
what that makes no sense how does it slow down
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
I was using swap for quite some time and it seemed to work really well for awhile and then started to cause my phone a lot of lock-ups after awhile. I think it was just eating up my sdcard too much. And it has been proven that swap wears on your sdcard quite a bit. I don't think it's worth it. There's a script made by Darkky that patches memory leaks in roms that seems to work good. I include these in a lot of roms and my memory always stays above 80mb.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] Hammerfest:
WARNING: LONG WINDED POST... read at your own risk...

What people fail to understand is that SWAP or fake ram is INHERENTLY IOPS sensitive... that being said, NONE of the Class 10 MicroSD cards have had ANYWHERE NEAR good enough IOPS for SWAP intensive operations... On my HD2 I went through testing 10 MicroSD cards of different Class's and sizes to find out which gave me the best performance while using SWAP and what gave me the best IOPS, Sadly, out of them all, only a Class 4 and Class 6, where anywhere decent enough to be good enough to function as SWAP devices... I mean 4 other ones worked... but you could tell with these 2....

It makes perfect sense... lets take game files from an SSD and transfer them to a HDD... while RAM and MicroSD both use NAND/Flash memory, its still a medium transfer as well! ERGO if you have a crappy IOPS MicroSD card, your going to notice slowdowns and wait times while things in RAM are swapped out to SWAP and vice versa... I guess the best comparison is using the SLEEP function on Windows 7 VS the Hibernation function...

yeah SWAP eats the CRAP out of your MicroSD card... proven fact... HOWEVER, if your like me, 8GB and 16GB cards are rather cheep these days, I totally dont mind spending $10-30 every 6~ months buying a new MicroSD card if it keeps my OLD device speedy... (pun intended)

I got a link around here that I posted somewhere with like 4-6 different MicroSD test run results... will edit this post and link it later...

Oh, and yeah, this belongs in Q&A... but I cant blame you... its a legacy device... and I only visit the Android development section for any device I use... :X

EDIT1: "halrulez" my HD2 running on the NIGHTLY CM7 builds has ZERO problems using/utilizing my 1GB SWAP partition... its all kernel/romsetup based...

EDIT2: some things I thought I should point out after I re-read my own post... in the Windows Sleep V Hibernation statement, when in Sleep, the RAM is kept on, and thus requires no loading time, in Hibernation, RAM is stored on the HDD/SSD and must be transferred back onto RAM before it will boot... I also forgot that I backup my MicroSD's contents with Dropbox and Box software, as well as backup's that are performed whenever I plugin my Phone or MicroSD to my desktop or laptop...
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] drob311:
There are apps like juwe11's ram app, rom toolbox has a memory settings, script manager in combination with v6 supercharger script (which I highly recommend, as it helps prevent sense reloads), auto killer memory, etc. Each phone has a "brain" of it's own. My phone likes v6 or auto killer memory, but other phones like juwe11's ramscript/app. Trial and error. Good luck, and post your results if you want to. :)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] VICODAN:
Really doesn't get explained any better than this.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
That is a good explaintion. But personally I don't want to be the guy that releases a rom with swap already in it and get the guilt of someone's sdcard breaking. As drob311 said there's apps and other ways of making it work and my rom/kernel does still support these other ways of using it.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] Hammerfest:
you do know that you can enable SWAP in a rom, but make it contained to SWAP PARTITION only? ergo if they made a SWAP partition on their MicroSD card... hence you have zero liability if said card breaks... you have to have SOME knowledge to repartition a MicroSD card properly for a SWAP partition :P

BTW, I fully support enabling it that way, it also leads the way to making the script for SWAP file vs partition easier because the ROM is ready for it, its just not enabled unless someone inserts the custom script OR has the proper partition for SWAP!
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Yes I know. I already had a swap script for swap partition for cm7 but you need a custom cmparts.apk since cm decided to disable all swap on their roms. Plus I didn't really feel like repartitioning my sdcard once it started acting up. I'll probably just make a seperate add-on to flash over the roms for it if people want it.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] Hammerfest:
im cool with that :P

actually, if someone can get YES/NO in CWM like on my HD2 you can put it all in the rom and they can choose right at the get-go :P

that being said, you can still use the custom cmparts.apk even w/o using swap partition... not that big of a conflict since if you have SWAP partition it works if not its disabled... only the functionality is present... and you dont have to maintain a separate script/package/whatever...

also, if your SDCard is acting up, use the SDCard formatter do a full format, then use HD low level format tool... or if you bought HDD Regenerator like me, its easy to find the health of your SD Media... but thats a moot matter... and im done talking for the night i think... (well the night ends in 3min... :X )

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] zenulator:
You can actually use compcache with out swapping to sd. But any swap introduces latency so it negates most gains achieved. So more apps might not get killed off as quick allowing them to reopen faster but forground apps suffer from the latency and compression.

http://code.google.com/p/compcache/
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
AFAICT non of our kernels support compcache. It's a patch you have to apply to the kernel itself in order to make it work.

http://code.google.com/p/compcache/wiki/Patches
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] B RAD G 296:
THANK YOU

ok i would like to say thanks for ur help.

AND I NO THAT IT IS THE WRONG THREAD FOR ME TO POST THIS BUT THIS PHONE IS NOT THAT BIG AND NO ONE LOOK IN GENERAL FORUMS FOR THIS ONE. SO I PUT IT WHERE I WOULD GET THE MOST ANSWERS. BUT THANKS AGAIN
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] strapped365:
I actually understand the reasoning.... hell I forget about general and q&a sometimes
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] Hammerfest:
willful ignorance... I flat out ignore the general and Q&A sections... unless I have a question not directly related to a rom...

@Sparksco... none out support compcache... that blows arse... I am glad then that I still use my HeroC (with compcache, you can DEFINITELY feel a SPEED UP rather then down :P ) as my home Read/Music/Browse device... well that and its extended battery and more responsive touch screen... (yes, i know, new update fix's this.. but I aint tried it yet)... Id beg you to include it in your next kernel/rom... but your deadset on not :( (its like 2WayCallRecording and No2WayCallRecording Kernels for my HD2... lol!)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] halrulez:
Thanks for all the insight and I have taken allot in from this whole discussion.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] halrulez:
I was told in a thread that 128 was Max on swap but I'm always willing to try new things. I did come from my old Heroc was a great phone to first start of on, till it took a crap on me.,lol meaning my mother in law threw it in the washing machine. Then my son threw my wifes in the toilet. Was great because of the best buy protection. Loved the old device but the shift is like night and day. Don't really use the keyboard. what is all I would need to do to use more swap? I haven't had any lock UPS what so ever. Class 4 8GB btw.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
Yeah my G1 can still use compcache because it's based off a older version of a linux kernel. I know what you mean. But when I checked the compatible linux kernel versions for compcache patches they read way older kernel versions then what we are using. I'll see if there is a bfs kernel patch update though for our kernels, I haven't checked that in quite some time. That's why I'll just put a seperate add-on flashable for the roms for swap ;)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] Hammerfest:
GAH! you people keep clicking the thanks button after I say something, none of my posts contain anything with insight or knowledgeable explanations in them... someone must have stolen my login and made intelligent posts... (/sarcasm)

thanks :P

wait, BFS and SWAP? dont tease... but you might want to ask Dorimanx (the maker of my HD2 ROM/Kernel killer combo... he cant get BFS to work (programs that rely on SU freeze for some reason... otherwise BFS makes any device fly!), but hes got SWAP working... and ZRAM... both are smoking hot when it comes to device performance... my HD2 feels like night and day since his advancements!

There has been 20+ threads about this same topic, so just search a bit more.

Galaxy Nexus was being sold at US$669 and now it costs US$609 (US$60 less), just US$30 more than the Galaxy S2. The Nexus got cheaper today at Expansys USA.

However the Galaxy S2 is still at the same price of US$579. Wish the S2 to drop in price like the Nexus...

Do you think that the S2 will drop in price to US$499 after the release of S2 Plus which is going to be announced at MWC?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cordell507:
pretty good price drop i still got mine for $560 from daily steals but the s2 is definitely due for a price drop soon, it's been out for a while.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Valynor:
No. Price drops for old technology are completely unheard of. Never happened, never will.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] imthebest:
I believe that you're wrong.

If the Galaxy Nexus has dropped its price then the Galaxy S2 will drop its price soon, too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crachel:
What if the S2 drops its price just to fake out the Galaxy Nexus and then a few days later after the Galaxy Nexus drops its price the S2 goes back to the original price and the Galaxy Nexus is all :confused:

And obviously the S2 will get cheaper and cheaper as time goes on.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watt9493:
What one is better and provides more real world performance? Why?

-My life is a shooting range, people never change-
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
Well they are two totaly different things. Zram (compache) is a compressed virtual swap partition stored in ram. This allows the system to swap less needed files to the zram for faster access at a later time, instead of killing them.

V6 is a script that changes oom (out of memory) values to be more agressive at killing apps not being used freeing up memory. It also has options to tweak other settings.

Neither is better than the other and can be used together. I am running both as i type. But to answer your question imho the v6 gives more real world performance. Why because i said so lol. No but seriously v6 does a better more aggressive job of freeing memory therfore speeding up your setup.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watt9493:
I thought you couldn't use zram and v6? Was I mistaken? That's the main reason I started this. :/

-My life is a shooting range, people never change-
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
I am using both with no issues. I know it mentions something in v6 about dissabling compache if you have lag, but it hasnt been an issue for me so far.
