I md5-checked the extracted .apk and .odex files with

find /cygdrive/i/apks -type f -exec md5sum {} \; >/cygdrive/d/md5apks.txt

but no md5sum matches the md5sum in the list you posted :confused:

Also, in my result file the listed files are not sorted alphabetically. So I didn't check all md5sums, but the three I picked didn't match.

So I have two questions:

1) How can I generate a sorted md5-to-filename file?

2) Why doesn't the md5sums match?

PS: They are also much shorter:

Your: 05453ab93582eccc2650b36db9bb4fdc6e7ee1d1 Galaxy4.apk

Mine: 7bc8de5650f3f155f7383c9c29a1d40d Galaxy4.apk

---------- Post added at 12:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:09 PM ----------

I'm an idiot! It has to be the SHA1 checksum, not the md5sum....but the answer to the question about the sorted list is still interesting...
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
I simply typed 'sha1sum *' ;) Maybe you need to do that from a real shell (sh, bash) if you run cygwin.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stuul:
My Nexus 7 has recently developed incredibly slow write speeds to external memory. I'm certain that they used to be the same as most benchmarks that I've seen for the tablet, but as of a few days ago they've plummeted. Restarts don't do anything for it, and I've killed all running apps to make sure nothing was using IO excessively.

Androbench reports sequential writes are at 0.37MB/s which seem awful. AnandTech's review last month stated 8.43 MB/s for sequential writes under the exact same conditions.

Opening apps now seems a lot slower than usual as well, and I've checked there aren't any rouge CPU spikes to blame. I read on another thread that disabling USB debugging helped up IO speeds, but my problem still exists.

Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this, bar wiping the memory? I'm running unrooted stock, for reference.

Thanks!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miketoasty:
Have you installed any new apps lately?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stuul:
Yeah, but I went through them all and uninstalled them. Didn't seem to make a difference. And for the benchmarks, I make sure there's no apps running in the background, Logcat output and a look at the list on "adb shell top" confirms there's nothing running.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dottat:
try a data wipe/factory reset and then only load your benchmarking app. See what you get that way..
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omnikai:
I'm in the same boat, exactly the same poor storage performance. I did a factory reset (latest AOSP w/ Motley kernel) and installed nothing but Androbench (didn't even add my Google account) and got these Androbench results:

Squential Read: 24.3 MB/s

Sequential Write: 1.41 MB/s

Random Read: 7.81 MB/s

Random Write 0.23 MB/s

SQLite Insert: 18.92 TPS / 15.85 sec

SQLite Update: 23.45 TPS / 12.79 sec

SQLite Delete: 22.67 TPS / 13.23 sec

Browser: 2830 msec

Market: 891.25 msec

Camera: 1404 msec

Camcorder: 1323.75 msec

Pretty abysmal overall, random write especially falls off the charts altogether. This is really sad since my N7 used to run great but recently has degraded significantly with lots of lag and ANRs.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stuul:
So I ended up flashing (and rooting my Nexus at the same time), and problem seems to have disappeared. Seq writes back up to 10.92 MB/s, looking pretty healthy.

Sorry I couldn't figure out what the problem was, hope you get your issue fixed!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omnikai:
Yeah, I did the same thing and my speeds are back to normal too. Makes me wonder if it's a kernel thing in non-stock kernels :confused:
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dug-e-fresh:
So my quadrant score sucks because my i/o category is way low... it seems that write speeds (especially database writes) are really killing it.

When you guys say you just reflashed, do you mean just using CWM? To a new rom?

Hi Everyone!

Currently, I have an iPhone 4S with Telus (in Canada) and I am looking to switch to an Android phone. Now if I were to switch now, I would get the SGS3, but I am curious about the Nexus 2 (or whatever google will call it). What Pros/Cons can you guys think of to get the SGS3 over the Nexus phone line by google, and vice versa?

Thanks so much!

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rsf2:
I believe past Galaxy Nexus release timelines point to a possible upgrade of the Galaxy Nexus launching around Q4 of this year. I have read that Samsung has already been selected as the manufacturer and the speculation is that it will probably be a variant of the GS3. I bough my AT&T GS3 in early July when it was officially launched (upgrading from an iPhone 4). I thought about waiting until Q4 to see what comes out for the new Galaxy Nexus but I really wanted to upgrade sooner rather then later.

The advantage to waiting for the next Galaxy Nexus is that updates come straight from Google and it will have the best developer support. However, I have no regrets purchasing the GS III when I did. I'm not happy about having to wait for both Samsung AND AT&T to get software updates but the dev community seems to be flocking to the GS3 like crazy. Almost instantly there were very stable CM9 (ICS) nighties and right behind that were CM10 (JB) preview builds (posted by Cyanogen himself) as well as AOKP (JB) builds.

If you prefer to keep the enhancement's that Samsung has added like the excellent camera app, SVoice (while not as good as siri, it does the job), enhanced voice commands like being able to snap a picture by saying "cheese", and smart stay (keeps the screen on for as long as it detects your looking at it) there are some really excellent stock based roms as well.

Really it comes down to how long your willing to wait to upgrade. There is always something newer coming out in 6 months so you'll only ever have the latest greatest for a few months at best. I'm kinda bummed that I won't be able to get vanilla android updates as soon as Google releases them but the upside is that with a little patience I'll have the choice of enjoying Samsung's extra features or rolling pure android via CM or AOKP.

PS: Being a long time iPhone user coming to Android for the first time I was very intimated by all the flashing recovery, custom rom, kernels, etc. but as long as you read the OP carefully and follow it's instructions, as well as search the threads if you do have issues, you'll be comfortable with it in no time. :cool:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TheFiveDots:
How do you feel about hardware buttons? The S3 has 2 soft-keys and a hard home button. The Nexus will undoubtedly have an on-screen navigation bar instead.

I like the idea of the navigation bar, but the it ultimately eats up some screen real estate.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Alarmmy:
I hate on screen buttons. Like u said, they eat up the precious screen real estate. Moreover, having virtual control button is not as useful as physical cintrol button. How can we activate Svoice without unlock the screen if we dont have dedicated buttons?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] greenglue:
Wow thanks! That was quite the reply! I already have the Nexus 7 so I'm kinda used to the ROMs and flashing etc... So are you saying that if for example, JB comes out for SGS3, it has to go through samsung first, then the carrier? What if I got the Nexus 2 would it have to go through carrier?

I might wait for the Galaxy 2/next Google phone but if I really get antsy I think I will upgrade to the SGS3 since it does have some really cool and unique features.

Thanks again!

Michael
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] greenglue:
As I said in my previous reply, I already have a N7 so I am used to the nav bar. But I really dislike it since I can't know the device's orientation in the dark that easily, and because of less screen real-estate.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] justin860:
You can have on screen buttons.....
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] fortesquieu:
Personally, I was using Galaxy Nexus, and was waiting for Nexus 2 before upgrading. My gf then decided to give her S2 away, so I had to give her my Nexus, got SGS3 myself.

So far, I'm liking the phone, as the screen color and brightness is much better than on Nexus. The phone is quick too, even on 4.0.4 compare to 4.1.1 on GN, which also flies.

The only complaint with non Nexus phones are, updates are always slow. :p
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] King Shady:
No offense here, but what's the point of having on screen buttons on a phone that has hardware buttons? This is one of the main things I loved about my old Galaxy Nexus (and the minimalistic led indicator at the button was sexy too).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TheFiveDots:
Yeah, you definitely can have on-screen buttons on the S3 with a custom ROM. My point was you definitely can't have hardware buttons on phone that doesn't come with them. :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rsf2:
Correct. Unless you buy the international version of GS3 (i9300) in which case the update only has to go through Samsung. Even with the Galaxy Nexus phones, unless they are purchased carrier unlocked from Google, you still have to wait for the carrier to release updates. Jellybean was released weeks ago for Google's Galaxy Nexus but the Verizon variant hasn't come yet according to this article http://www.gottabemobile.com/2012/08/16/verizon-galaxy-nexus-jelly-bean-update-hopefully-coming-this-month/. It even notes the international version of the GS3 may even get Jelly Bean at the same time or before the Verison Galaxy Nexus variant.

So the OS upgrade timeline seems to be: Google Variant > International (Unlocked) Version, carrier version. I debated buying the i9300 version of the GS3 but the extra memory (2GB vs 1GB) in the carrier variants plus the 2 year commitment discount swayed me.

Hope this helps :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] greenglue:
Hi!

Yes this really did help! So pretty much no difference in getting carrier version of SGS3 or Nexus (1/2). In that case I guess I will go with the SGS3 even though the new Nexus will probably be much more updated (spec. wise). It is really just timing at this point.

Thanks again! :)

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MagicMan3:
I don't know about this part, traditionally when Nexus phones come out they have usually been on par with the other leading phones hardware wise. If memory serves, they've never really been about being the bleeding edge for hardware but more the "Google" experience and about getting the updates first.

Odds are the new Nexus phone won't be a lot faster than the current SGS3 if the trend continues.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] shalom azar:
both great phones

ill make a pros and cons list.. i went with a Galaxy S3

Nexus pros:

-faster OS updates

-on screen buttons

-it will probably be cheaper

-Stock android (if u like stock)

-something new we may not know about

GS3 pros:

-MicroSD card Slot (the nexus prob wont have an SD card knowing google)

-its already out, u dont have to wait

- Touchwiz (if u like it with all of its features)

- prob better camera (nexus devices havent gotten good cameras in the past)

-better speakers, nexus 7 and galaxy nexus speakers suck

things to note:

- Its hard to tell which will have a faster processor, cause the next Nexus might have Tegra 3 or 4 or snapdragon s4 or S4 pro

- the next nexus might have something new which will surprise us

- it may not even come out till Q1 or Q2 of 2013 since it might wait for the next version of android

hopefully that answered ur Question... i mainly got the GS3 cause 1. it has a micro SD card slot and 2. i didnt want to wait
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] greenglue:
Hi there!

Thanks very much for this complete list! It is exactly what I was looking for. I think I will go with the SGS 3 because mainly of waiting times for the possible Nexus 2. The processor of the the SGS3 is also a lot faster than the current Nexus, and WAY faster than any iPhone out there today.

Thanks again!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Arakhnidef:
I received the phone and everything was great except i couldnt charge or connect to my computer because the phone didnt show that it ws connected at all (The battery icon remained the same), by mistake I found out that if I tilt up the cable, the phone will recognize it and charge as everything was normal. If I look closely and compare this usb port with other mini usb ports from other devices in the house I noticed it was tilted a bit down. So I put a sliver of duct tape and used it as a shim and put it between the male end of the usb port and the phone case itself, well it seems to work but Im afraid that it wont work for long. Anyway, to the meat of the question. I found some usb mini connectors on ebay for the t989 and when I have looked at the teardown I see that its attached to the motherboard as it was just plugged in, but then at the same time I see two solder points on the mobo as well. I don't know a dam thing about soldering other than what a soldered are looks like. Has anybody had any experience in removing the usb connector on this phone? Or just knows by looking at it how it is attached.
