[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gtg:
Many thanks for this info - you've saved my phone....:good::good::good::)

I managed to brick my device by deleting some of what I thought were unused apps, such as voice search, to free up some memory. Bit of a shame that Vodafone's UK offering is so bloated that the recent OTA update failed due to lack of space, lesson learnt there on how easy it is to break android.

Like other windows users I got hung up extracting files from the Vodafone-UK tar.md5 firmwares, but the german one is packaged in a more friendly way - so anyone stuck should try the specific firmware listed in the instructions.

Thanks again....

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Axiomkid:
I'm **** outta luck if you wanna call it that. I'm out of warranty and from what At&t said there's no more Infuses in the world. :eek:. They have none in stock and all Insurance can do is give me a SGS 2 for $199, Screw That! I'd rather have another Infuse since they sent me a bad replacement 2 weeks ago, But their is no more :rolleyes:.

My problem with my Infuse seems to be the camera, Maybe someone here has experienced this issue and has some knowledge to help me fix the issue. When I run the camera app you'll get a buzzing sound If you tap it again the buzzing goes away, The buzzing sound is creating a warp effect while taking photo's. Question is What the hell can be causing the unusual buzzing sound only when using the camera/video recorder? All my other apps such and music/videos/pictures/ Any other app doesn't cause this buzzing sound and all is related back to the camera app or any camera app at that fact. And if it helps any It doesn't matter which rom I'm on or what firmware it's the same issue. The only fix I seem to have for now is smacking my phone to make the buzzing sound stop. It's really annoying! There's times I can turn it on and it won't happen, If I smack it sometimes I still can't get the buzzing sound to come back. Is their a bad wiring somewhere or dust somewhere it should'nt be?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Cjohns8792:
I used to get this on some early ICS builds. It has seemed to go away with the recent ones...builds after 7/20. Maybe its the flash or focus causing it. Not sure.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Axiomkid:
It's happening with GB which is quite odd.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Crinkypops:
I was getting the exact same dilemma... Don't know any fix...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Axiomkid:
I pulled off the back cover sprayed the crap outta every nick and cranny I could with air duster, also sprayed the hell outta the headphone jack and lightly blew some into the mic on the top. So far it hasnt happend even by tapping it. Its gotta be dust or something, Ill keep monitoring it.

Edit: Nvm....... Damn! gotta be a bad wire or something.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Axiomkid:
Nvm ppl screw my issue. Ive been lied too, I found out I got a 90 day warranty on my replacement I got less than 2 weeks ago. So Im getting another replacement. Thank god. F'n issues. Your warranty never goes out if you ask for a new refurb before 90days are up. Im out of warranty but all these refurbs push the warranty an extra 90days.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Pony Express:
Sorry you had the problem.... very glad to hear about a replacement on the way !! :good:
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Axiomkid:
The company lied and said i was out of warranty but i just got a replacement like 2 weeks ago. Always good to know the warranty resets every 90 days of getting another refurb. :) Soon to be happy again. I got this phone cause of the camera and big screen.

Anyone find any cheap cards that work?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Vorfidus:
$76.95 (TOPRAM) - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA12K0CA3741

$93.95 (SanDisk) - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA12K0948061

These are the cheapest I found them while purchasing mine.

As low as $62 on Amazon right now. I got mine for $53. You gotta watch for price breaks.

$53 is a darn good price. I got a SanDisk 64GB Mobile Ultra MicroSDXC on a best buy daily deal for $49 about a month ago. Doesn't look like they even carry it now on their site, but Amazon has it for $82.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] husker_fan75:

Better check the the actual size of that card. On SD cards it is possible to fake the card so it reports a larger size than the card actually is.

You might look at this URL http://flashchiptech.wordpress.com/...ownload-to-check-flash-drives-and-memory-car/

Also it is best to format SD cards with a dedicated formatter. I like SDformatter

Also a good test program is H2testw See this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=730285
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ratledge:
Are you letting it do the default ('exFAT") format in Windows/7? You don't want that, although it works with the Samsung ROM, it won't work with Cyanomod unless you format it as "FAT32" instead. You can use the command-line switches or there's a "FAT32 Gui" program somewhere around here - I can't seem to put my fingers on the link right now, but I found it within the past few days. If you can, use the phone to format it instead of a PC, that always insures FAT32. ("exFAT" isn't supported by CYM because of the funky licensing Microsoft has for exFAT)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AdamHLG:
Aside from card size, doesnt card speed play a factor in whether these 64gb cards will work? Isnt the appropriate question "what is the best deal on a 64gb class 10 SD card that actually works"?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Vorfidus:
I linked a SanDisk class 10 that works in the second post of the thread.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TechSavvy2:
^^^THIS.

Those ebay 16.99 cards I thought were found to be class 1 or 4, I don't remember. And they're from china but hey, sometimes they are legit. I've gotten great knock off deals there before.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] husker_fan75:
According to the listing I bought from it should be a class 10.....but we will see. It may be a class 0 if I never get anything lol.

I ended up ordering the best buy one. I don't think there is a huge difference between class 6 and 10. At least imo.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pclever1:
Class 6 vs. 10

Ya, I am really thinking about getting the Bust Buy one but I dont know about the class 6. (I contacted SanDisk a few days ago and they told me that they only make the class 10 version at the moment)

Do you think I should get the class 6 from Bust Buy?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pclever1:
I got it

Well, I got it just before they took off the deal (its only $10 more, $60). I never knew Bust Buy to have good deals, I hope this was a good decision.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kench33:
If anything you can always return it if you're not satisfied.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] viper8u2:
I just got the ones I ordered in the beginning of July last week. Got them from Amazon when they had that sale. I think they were like $53 each

Put in your phone and format it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kench33:
Do you need to format it to fat32 before you put it in your phone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pclever1:
Speed Test

Hey, will you upload a speed test of the SD card. (I want to be able to compare it to my Class 6 when I get it)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] viper8u2:
what do you mean upload a speed test? I need to copy off all the stuff from my 32gb. Have not had time
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mtnmeow:
If you care about compatibility with 3rd party ROMs and recoveries such as Clockworkmod, you'll want to format it as FAT32.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Deathbynukes:
Is there a noticeable difference performance-wise between Class 6 and Class 10?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmorton10:
Absolutely not.

There are certain advantages to FAT32 like allowing CWM to see the card, but I never format my 64 GIG cards to FAT32 because you lose the ability to save any file over 4 gigs to it. My Blue-Ray rips are all over 4 GIGS & one of the main reasons I wanted 64 GIGS was to have room to store large files/movies etc.

It is a minor inconvenience to have CWM not write a nandroid backup to it, but CWM saves & restores just fine from the internal phone storage & I occasionally copy those nandroid backups from the internal storage to my PC for safe keeping.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
go to the website and you will see the card being talked about is a class 10. yes.there is a noticeable difference in performance but class rating does not tell it all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmorton10:
The only place you will notice the difference (I have both) is when you are doing something like copying a huge amount of data from a PC to the card etc (it will speed that up quite a bit). It does not change anything whatever speed wise in every day use of the phone as the class 6 is still faster than any operation it has to perform.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kench33:
Okay. If I put movies on my sd I don't use blue ray. Does it honestly look better on your phone than a dvd rip though?

Sent from my rooted galaxy s3 on beans build 6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmorton10:
No, it doesn't on the phone itself but I use HDMI out quite a bit & it certainly does then.

When I RIP a movie I use it for more than just viewing on my phone screen.

I have other large files also & I can't see formatting a card that big card to a file system that doesn't allow large file sizes.

For me, & the way I use my phone the ONLY advantage of FAT32 would be CWM seeing it/writing to it & not being able to do that is only a very minor inconvenience for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pclever1:
That is my question

That is my questioin, I just purchased the class 6 and am wondering if I should return it when I receive it in the mail.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Metups:
My thinking, also. I ordered the 64GB Sandisk for mp3's and .mkv's, but I purchased the GS3 with 32GB in order to always have space for the nandroids and Titanium backups, apk's, etc.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pclever1:
Speed Test

I just want some numbers from someone who has the class 10 version of the card so I can compare the quality and performance to my class 6.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Vorfidus:
There really isn't much of a difference except for the write speed. You go from 6mb/s to 10. But keep in mind those are approx so you may get a little less, or a little more.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Rolo42:
Don't forget that these class ratings are for sustained sequential throughput (like movies) and for class 10, that applies only to a non-fragmented state. If you want speed, go UHS (50-104MB/s), assuming our phone supports it.

If your transfers are mostly small random read/writes, I find it hard to believe you would notice a difference between 6 and 10 and class 6 is fine for streaming video--my concern would be what happens when class 10 gets fragmented; does it choke?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pclever1:
Speed Test

I got the SanDisk 64gb Micro SDXC class 10 from Bust Buy (was meant to be class 6) and did this speed test.

Could I get this adapter and us it with the custom JellyBean ROMs? (specifically Viscious Liquid 4.1.1-V1).

http://www.amazon.com/Micro-USB-HDMI-MHL-Adapter/dp/B005NG71K8

It looks like that one goes to a regular HDMI (instead of micro HDMI) which is nice, and also has the USB port extended for charging as well.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phazerorg:
I can't say if it's the exact same or not, but mine looks identical to that one, right down to the writing on it. I got it from monoprice (actually cablesonsale.ca, which sells monoprice stuff in Canada). It works great.

The micro USB port isn't just for charging though... you have to plug it in for the adapter to work. At least with mine, anyway.

Recently , my litile brother typed incorrect unlock pattern more than 30 times .. that resulted into my phone being locked .. so i had not any other option than to factory reset my phone .... but my phone was on stock samsung ics rom and my phone has brickbug .. inspite of knowing this i factory resulted my phone .. .. so my phone is not booting .. so now i have tried to restore the nandroid backup which i have taken before through cwm ... but the cwm says the md5 sum is mismatching ... may be this is because i have changed the name of the folder in which there was the backup ..now i dont know what to do .. i have read about commands in adb but i dont know how to use adb ...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ephraim:
The brick bug is where you hard brick your phone. Fortunately for you it booted. But i think you are on 4.0.3 which is ok. Anyway, you shouldn't have renamed your backup. You can try flashing another rom or the rom you currently are on through odin (or if you are on a custom rom which is flashed though cwm then it's okay too). Maybe someone knows how to restore your backup which has been renamed but for the mean time, flash another rom and you'll be okay.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HANDSY:
The md5 mis match may be because of you renaming the back up with spaces in the title. Happened to me once. As above post says flash new rom, gain root, amend back with no spaces restore back up. All the best .

I had a Nokia 2720 from 2009 to mid 2010. Way too simple of a phone.

Then I got a Motorola EM330. Just as simple as the Nokia, but had microSD expansion so I could store my music.

In November of 2011, I decided to get my first taste of Android. I got a Motorola Cliq. Many ROMs but was a lag beast. 5mp shooter. Terrible and no flash.

December 2011. Bought a used LG Ally off eBay. It was a step up in speed, step down in camera (3.2mp but with LED flash), big jump in pixel density and screen resolution, but only had a small handful of ROMs.

January 2012, I got a Motorola Droid due to high development and a recent ICS port. Nice large screen and high DPI, good 5mp camera with dual LED flash, but definitely had great development. First of my phones with Adobe Flash. Such a cool factor.

March 2012, I received a temporary Droid 2. With a 1GHz processor, I had high expectations... but was disappointed by the lag when loading pages with lots of pictures such as phonearena or phonedog. I definitely noticed a speed increase in gaming compared to my other phones, however. Updated to unrootable firmware and to this day the only phone I have owned that is still on stock ROM. Same cam as Droid 1.

Late June, 2012. I bought a Motorola Flipside to replace my Motorola Cliq which was still my phone for calling/texting. Awful development and awful memory, but speedy processor and good enough RAM. CM7 and link2sd saved me, thankfully. 3.1mp no autofocus the worst smartphone camera I've used.

I know i'll probably forget a few,

My first phone was a Nokia 8210 then 8310, 7210, 3650, 9210, 9500, E61i the best phone I have ever used, E71 was fast but lacked the E61i grip, a few 1100 and that sort of phones, currently i got the X1, dual Sim and both works at the same time which is great for a $35 phone that has a slot for micro SD up to 16 GB.

Blackberry 7270 First blackberry with bluetooth, BBM v1 was hit back in the day, 9500, 9000, 8910, 8250, 9700, 9800, 9900

Sony Ericsson W900i, T68 great phones, If i can remember correctly T68 was the first phone to have colors

Android HTC Dream (T-mobile G1) great phone i still remember people used to switch the trackball of this phone to a Blackberry, Alcatel One Touch 991 current phone, just unlocked it and I'd be using more and more of it, fast for it's value €100, battery life isn't that great, barely hold a day, but with that price I didn't expect more.

iPhone 3G, 3Gs, 4, 4s, they only lasted a week after iPhone 4, but I wasn't a big fan of no flash where others manufactures had a greater specs.

iMate JASJAM oh man, GPRS, Windows Live Messenger and all of that reminds me of the good old days, pre-iphone generation kids now adays wouldn't know how it felt.a

Palm can't recall the model or when I had it, i know it was there somewhere.

Java has it's touch too with games and apps

I can't recall anymore phones, would update if I remembered, thanks OP for the great Subject, you brought a lot of good memories

I do not remember some of them. But i got excellent experience with my cell phones. I do remember I git Nokia N10 initiall. It was nice phone though not much features.

Then i moved towards NOkia Cell phones. It was a great Experience. I used Nokia 1112 with FM, and some other features also nice keypad. I also used Nokia 1110 and Nokia 103. All are cool sets. Very reliable and worth full indeed

My first was a Nokia 8310, then a 9500. Then I went on a Motorola spree with some silver flip-phone pieces of ****, followed by a RAZR. Tried a Blackberry Pearl 8310 for a while. Now I am on a Samsung Infuse 4G.

What motivates me to try a new phone? Price. I am a cheap SOB, and am willing to use slightly outdated tech to save a buck. The total out-of-pocket cost for all of the above phones is a whopping $0.01 U.S. which I paid for my latest Infuse.
