[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cooladityarai:
Oh yes it has same as our..... but it has a better display of 720p res. So what does it mean...??? The cpu has to work more on the extra pixels . And the thing that ram is reserved for graphics sounds correct here because more pixels more load on gpu and ram. But did u noticed the same processor and ram having moto razar hav nearly 800mb available ram. I just can not understand why the G version has been locked with ram and not the nonG version , still while launching the G version Samsung said that both devices are similar in performance. But we all know about it , nothing to say here.

And the most important thing is that Motorola Atrix2 is available @22.5k which have everything same except display, and also gnexus in some places @24 k yet it have more powerful cpu and higher resolution. . ...and what we r paying for i9100g........27.5k . Samsung is only cheating Indian users, even they have not specified on the boxes whether it is G version ( saw many issues like that on google ).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zaclee:
Just go ahead & sue Samsung for cheating... as consumers we have right to know the real model we are paying for... but i dont think can win the case:D so just be it!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cooladityarai:
Man u r wrong we can win against samsung . They are cheating us Under Consumer Act 1987 . So we can.....either they refund our money or replace with the original one. And also Samsung has to pay for the mental hrassment that we suffered.

What if I told you the 680mb ram is just a display error across the device.

Have you ever exceeded using 680mb ram on the phone?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jorgelh8:
I regret buying this phone, if you ask me, not because is Samsung, just because it's Android. I really don't understand the logic behind a mobile OS that uses lots of RAM in a device that obviously does not have great battery. I had at the time an iPhone 4S and my SGSII simultaneously, so I got the chance to test them in RL. Even iPhone having a less efficient display (LCD vs AMOLED) and a smaller battery than the one on the SGSII, in actual daily use, iPhone seems to handle its RAM way better than any Android I have tested. The problem in many Android IMO is when in idle, still consuming a lot of RAM that greatly affects battery.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codybank_789:
so u think more free ram is better ? its maybe right in ios but its not in android. ram is born to be used.

Dont think ram consuming cause battery drain.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KeithOYS:
Straight answer below.

Scenario: An Xperia™ Phone.

"Now, let’s look at how the RAM is used. Out of our 512MB RAM, about a third is used for functions that require a dedicated memory slot to

operate fast enough

. For example, this is the case for certain multimedia functions. The remaining space, which is at least 340MB, is reserved for the Linux user space, as required in the Android Compatibility Definition Document (CDD). Within the Linux user space, functions like the activity manager and Home screen app are running." (Sonymobile, 2012).

Picture illustration as follows:

This partitioning more or less applies to all other manufacturers' devices, thus explains why the promised 1GB in our device is not entirely visible to us.

As to why different phones with the same chipset has different amounts of RAMs (i.e. Samsung SGS2 VS Motorola Droid Razr & that Razr appears to have more usable RAM), it simply goes back to the reason:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rskyline:
I still dont get it. Because is impossible to see where was that memory allocated. And why it doesnt happen with galaxy s2 int and s3? And why we can't see any improvement on performance with that ram dedicated to it? Because in GB we have almost all RAM available and it goes fastet than any ics with that strange ram partition

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cooladityarai:
Xactly i also can not understand why only with i9100g and not with anyone.....???? And if it is done to improve performance then where is the improvement.....?????? No better gaming , gpu perfomance worse......

The only thing is that they are undetestimating the G users.....

POOR SAMSUNG....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iXanza:
ICS is more system heavy . the 320mb of RAM you lost is dedicated to the System. Without that you'd have 1gb of ram but 200-300mb will be filled up to aid in the System. the reason you dont see any improvements is because ICS is heavy. if that extra 320mb ram wasnt used to aid the System apps your system will be slower than it is right now.

If you're comparing with the i9100 and the S3

they're using a different CPU from ours and different RAM design. the RAM is still used up but its' shown. There's NO difference whatsoever
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codybank_789:
U seem to be very unsatisfy with the G. Keep telling that ' no performance improvement' and ' where is my ram ' and ' f*ck samsung ' doesnt gonna make our phone better.

Devs are working hard to bring us better performance, to grow up our G community.

Your negative post just gonna destroy it.

I think this question about ram is well-answered.

Maybe we should stop here.;)

Yes man u right......:thumbup:

This will make a bad impact on the community. And we should stop here right now.

The only thing that frustrates me is that samsung charged very high price , that should be somewhat lower. This thing piches me too much. I m crazy about android development ( yet i m noob ) , and only thing makes me satisfy that great developer SIR CODEWORKX is the part of this community. Means no need to depend on idiot Samsung for updates.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rskyline:
The thing is, our phone need that much of ram dedicated, that's ok, other phones doesn't need that even with same chipset, that isn't ok. Other phones with less RAM (eg 512 MB) seems smoother, that's ok, our phone with great amount of RAM dedicated to system to make things smoother and it doesn't, that isn't ok. :cyclops:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jiangyi:
Samsung messed up the graphics driver in the Stock 4.0 ROMs, and so, you don't see an improvement in performance. Codeworkx rectified this in CM9 by using Galaxy Nexus drivers instead.

Samsung makes great hardware, but they pretty much suck on the software side.

Hi All,

I have broke my original usb cable and looking for one in white color as my handset and charger both are white. I have checked ebay, only cable is like €13 and charger plus cable is €13.50. Cant understand why only cable is like that expensive. I remember previously I managed to find it in less than €5. But now seems to be double in price.

Guys any idea or link where can I buy cheapest in Germany or from web.

Any suggestions would be appreciated :)

Thanks & Regards,

Uppal

[G2 and Desire Z General] heoque:
ok, so i wanted to try Cyanogenmod 7.

i followed the steps:

1- rooted the device

2- downgraded to Froyo firmware

3- installed Cyanogenmod 7.20.

all worked fine for almost one week until i updated rom manager from the market.

since the the device led flickers in green and orange. I can get into clockworkmod recovery menu but it lasts for a few seconds and disappears. it appears again and so on.

adb devices returns:

List of devices attached

SH0BHRT09137 recovery

but because it's not stable the same command doesn't return any devices few seconds later.

what shall i do now ?
[G2 and Desire Z General] demkantor:
steps one and two i assume are switched around, try booting into fastboot

if your hboot is still stable you may have more luck here

fastboot works in similar ways as adb - so fastboot devices

if you see yours

then wipe and flash a new recovery via fastboot

fastboot -w

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot reboot

(replace recovery.img with whatever name you give that recovery image)
[G2 and Desire Z General] heoque:
Thanks for the info. after i installed fastboot and ran "fastboot devices" i don't get any devices.
[G2 and Desire Z General] demkantor:
are you in fastboot mode within hboot? does your phone say fastboot usb?

write down everything on your phone when you boot into bootloader
[G2 and Desire Z General] heoque:
strange enough "adb reboot" go the device working ! not sure why it was stuck at ClockMod.

hope this thread help somebody later.

Find the stock ruu for your carrier and restore your device to stock, you will have to relock the boot loader to do so if you're son.

Use hasoons tool to relock it, may take a few tries until it relocks, by the way, though s-off may fail on the first try, doesn't mean you should give up, just keep trying till you're successful, a paper clip works great and don't forget to check that the pin hole isn't blocked, use a sharp pin to clear it if it is.

When you restore a stock ruu you need to let the device fully boot at least once, therefore restore the stock again and let it boot into android before trying to mod it.

Hi

Here are details about my problem.

My Galaxy S2 is rooted and i've ressurection 2.5.3 on it.

i've installed a second rom (omega v15) on dualboot.

it has rebooted without any problem.

I've then decided to make a backaup using ROM Manager, when it rebooted to make the backup the screen kept black.

Now, I can start it in download mode. no problem

But i can't start it on recovery mode . It just shows the Galaxy S2 Logo then I can notice a little flash out and the screen keeps black.

To be sure if the phone is shut down or still started I plug it to the PC using the usb cable. I can clearly hear the sound of the usb connection, which means it is not off.

I hope my description is clear enough.

Sure i don't want make a silly steps, I've read all the posts in the xda forums regarding boot problems, but i can't find anyone matching my problem.

What can i do to make it working?

My Galaxy's information are:

Model: GT-I9100

SSN: -i9100GSMH

FCC ID: A3LGTI9100
