The worst part is, if I wake up phone from deep sleep them the animation on the lock screen lags.

And even the main screen would lag for few seconds before it becomes super snappy.

This wake up lag and screen refresh is very embarrassing.

My gf's I Phone never does that and she teases me a lot because of this.

I have to sollow my pride :screwy::screwy::thumbdown::thumbdown::thumbdown::confused::confused:

What do you think will happen cause apple won the patent thing
[Samsung Infuse 4G] PVD04:
The infuse is no longer for sale. They can't retroactively confiscate the devices people have already purchased, so the ruling will have no effect on the Infuse at all.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Jep56:
They'll go after future sales next. Then they'll go after the Android OS itself. I have always hated Apple products, too proprietary for me. One the bright side, it's not over. Samsung will appeal that Apple has abused the patent laws in order to monopolize the market, which is true.

I don't see flat screen TV or monitor law suits out there for "copying". Job's biggest feat was convincing brainless zombies that they needed what he was selling...which is junk.

I will go back to Balckberry or a Motorola flip phone before I ever buy Apple crap!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Pony Express:
... and all the people said Amen. :)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] :
It will be dragged out in court with appeals for awhile. Then one of the manufacturers will pay for patents so they can use whatever it is they have copied. I don't think much will change but i could be wrong.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
nothing will change on the consumer end, maybe prices will go up to cover royalties or whatnot, but in the end google will still make android available and companies will use it. on the plus side google owns motorolas patents.. and they are suing apple.!

[Samsung Infuse 4G] crash822:
Ruling doesn't mean anything for the infuse except they can no longer sale a phone in the US that is already not being sold.

Apple will probably never licence their technology to any android device purely because it is running android. They offered to licence their tech to samsung but at the price they wanted Samsung would make no money at all on the devices.

Apple's main enemy isn't the phone makes, it is Google. Google is just the boss fight while the phone manufacturers are the mini bosses that are blocking the way.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
yeah i wanted to believe it but 30 trucks would barely be a down payment not to mention somebody would have noticed if they were to organized getting 20 billion coins together at the same time. people sometimes fail to realized how big a number that is.

i did a little math figuring the payload of a trailer would be exceeded long before the volume of the trailer in copper and found the mass of a nickel is 5 grams. makes the math pretty easy, the maximum legal load of a road going vehicle is 80,000 lbs which is roughly 36,000kg as you can see 100,000,000 is way more than 30 times the weight capacity of a truck and trailer. it would take well over 3000 loads of nickels after you subtract the weight of the truck and trailer from the total allowable weight. actually for a truck and trailer it's probably more like 4500 loads.

but if it were me and i could come up with a way to get a bunch of physical money together at once i would totally pay the first few million that way. but not in nickels or pennies. nickels contain a lot of copper and more importantly they contain a reasonable amount of nickel and are likely worth more than the face value. it would be a gold mine of scrap metal however illegal. pennies can be worth triple the face value if they are older from when they were made from copper and many of these pennies are still in regular circulation.

if i really wanted to pull a good prank i'd go for money that was likely to depreciate rapidly in relation to the american dollar and pay in papper bills, easier to ship than coins and has no value other than the face value, then see how long it takes them to deposit it all.

Be thankful that there is nothing that can be "shut off". They can't stop an Infuse or any other Samsung phone from receiving signals or kill the devices.

In 1986, Poloroid sued Kodak for patent infringement. The Kodak Colorburst apparently lifted the self developing film technology, at least the courts ruled they did. The outcome was that Kodak was forced to stop making the film, rendering all Colorburst cameras worthless. Too bad too, the Kodak film was superior IMHO & started developing from a white background instead of Poloroid's funky green, which gave everything white a slight green tint. If I recall correctly, Colorburst users received a rebate check that didn't even cover the cost of the camera.

i hate apple soo much. the apple users have no concept of anything. all i hear is "macs are so secure" and "they are soo easy to use" "macs are soo stable" prove it!! i never saw a complaint about windows 7, and 90% of the "pc" problems that aren't operator error come back to advertising and all the "free" stuff oems get paid to put on the thing to keep prices competitive. the other %10 is poor driver development which is understandable with the gigantic hardware base.

have they ever tried to multitask on a mac? granted it's not all that hard if you know some hot keys or recently the gestures they implimented with the touch pads but there is no visual cues as to what's open, no task bar, and when you want a new window of the same program it defaults to pulling the open window into active view, rather than a new instance of the program while a pc defaults to a new window but the old one is clearly visable on the taskbar, now on a mac you are searching menus taking guesses as to what menu label is most likely to have a "new window" option. everything you launch you have to start from the desktop, there is no persistant launch bar like the start menu and task bar in windows. then you already paid a premium for the "apple support geniuses" and no advertising but when it comes time to upgrade you're screwed, you have to buy it all over again. there are only a few componants you can actually change on your own.

how is this easier? somebody explain that to me!. any idiot can multi task on a pc without knowing a single hot key and without ever having to return to the desktop. it took me hours to figure out how to use a mac at the same level. it's only easy for people familiar with keyboard commands that are less reliant on the gui being feature rich and people that don't realize all the things a computer can do and only wish to do a single task at a time. there is nothing easy about having to move backwards before you move forwards. not to mention where do these people get the idea macs are secure? how do they test and rate security? why don't corporations use apple servers? why is it all microsoft or linux powered? somebody explain that to me!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mg2195:
Linux wrecks macs...its more stable, uses less resources, and just as virus free if not more virus free as macs (of course there are still some...there will always be viruses :/)

The only thing that linux lacks is the ability to natively run windows applications...only reason I still dual boot with windows is cause a lot of my programs are for windows :/ and running them under wine just never feels as smooth (wine is like a windows emulator)

I always say linux is like the computer version of android...but maybe I should really.be saying android is the phone version of linux since android is based off linux :P (kernels)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] electricpete1:
LOL. Don't hold back Dani... tell us how you really feel!

You might want to tone back your comments about Apple users though.

Just between you and me, some of my best friends have iPhones and my daughter just got a MacBook (college gift from Grandpa, not my idea). Don't tell anyone about it though.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mg2195:
I will never buy an apple product...I don't care of others do but I will always discourage them.from doing so...but if they get one then whatever
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
Yeah I know there are some reasonable apple users. Oxs and iOS are basically BSD which is what Linux derives from. It does have a lot going for it. But in my opinion Linux is better by a long shot and some things will never compete with what's available for widows. Windows is the gaming platform of choice.

It is just the mentality that irks me. The ui is uncluttered but its clunky at best, its far from the elegant intuitive interface its made out to be.

I had an iPod, and an iPhone the iPod was great in its day, i the iPhone was a major disappointment from day one.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] brian Marshall:
I wouldn't hate on Apple too much. They do a lot of things really well. I've got friends with macbooks, iphones, ipads, etc. Beyond the consumerism and parroting taglines like "get a mac" and "think different" there is a certain simplicity to a lot of their products that appeals to many people. I remember back in the day using a windows PC to do multitrack recording and having all kinds of issues which i eventually tracked down to my video card. You wouldn't think a video card would cause problems with audio, but once I replaced it it worked like a dream.

My mac using friends never had these kind of issues. Outboard audio gear just plugged in and worked without any hiccups. Part of that may be due to software, but primarily it comes down to their hardware being all very similar.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mg2195:
Yeah...I hate on apple because

1) they are too simple

2) they are too locked down

3) they are crap for the price you pay...like the hardware is good, if you lower the price a few hundred to a thousand

4) everything about apple

When I was younger like a freshman in highschool I thought apple was the best...but as I got more into technology I learned that they are good but not for the price...you could get a better PC hardware wise for 2/3 of the price, or you could build a better pc hardware wise for 1/2 of the price of a mac...I can't justify spending $2500 on a Mac pro that only has a quad core CPU, 6 gb ram, 1tb hard drive, and,I could build a computer with an 8 core CPU, 16 gb ram, 3tb hard drive, better cooling system, same graphics card...if not better, cooler looking case for $1300...as you can see...a lot better hardware for about half the price

Put linux on that custom pc and your golden...beyond stable, using half the resources Mac os would (don't know what its called...) Maybe put windows on a 1tb partition...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
so you had one obscure issue, which a small group of mac users never had, and suddenly they are reliable machines?

i agree a small hardware base has advantages. but the "simplicity" you speak of is over simplicity. they clean the interface to the point it hinders the end user. i approached mac with an open mind, going back to the power pc g3/4 machines i was curious about them knowing they were using a bsd type system and all my brother raved about linux and similar systems but nobody had them. when i actually used a mac within the last few years i wanted to smash it with a hammer!

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Smokestack360:
Boy did this thread take a turn to the left.

Not sure why such venom is directed at apple...as if they operate any differently than any other business. Its all about the bottom line for all of them...Microsoft , Google, Samsung, Apple. They all offer products and services that some people prefer over others. But that is what is....preference.

IMHO none of them are any "better" than the next guy. It's all about what works for you....and what you are comfortable using....hmmm kind if like theROMs on our phones.

The one thing that unites all of those companies is the bottom line...how to get more out of the consumer while they themselves get cheaper and cheaper with the overhead. If Samsung wasn't selling so many damn phones I doubt Apple would care as much about "infringement".

Fit all of them it really is not so much about being innovative or advancing technology as much as it is about increasing ones market share. The bottom line.

Peace.

That's the thing though...apple macs don't get cheaper...

Anyways, ill agree..its all preference, I said earlier I would discourage people from getting one, but if they get a mac then they get a mac...I'm not going to continuously complain to them how macs suck and they made a dumb decision

Anyways...I'm thinking this thread

A) needs to get cleaned up...its so off topic

B) needs to get closed...its so off topic

C) we just get back on topic...even though the topic has no effect on the infuse...

[Samsung Infuse 4G] brian Marshall:
Obscure issue? A lot of people use computers these days for recording audio and video editing. Granted not everyone does, but both are generally easier to do with off the shelf Apple products. if you want to use a PC it's not always so simple, especially if you buy an off the shelf computer. Simply put, you cant always expect to walk in to best buy and purchase a mid-priced computer and just expect everything to work.

The issues are typically latency, or software not agreeing with hardware or the hardware's drivers. Some may be due to OEM's modifications or selection of cheap hardware. If you really want a PC where everything is going to work together correctly you'll often need to do some research and build it your self. That's certainly an option, but not something everyone is going to want to do. Things certainly improved in this regard with windows 7, but it's still not perfect. I hear with windows 8 microsoft will be clamping down on manufacturers not to mess with their operating system. We'll see how that works.

There is another side to this coin as well. Much of the reason that windows can be so complicated (or some might say bloated) is backwards compatibility. Often when you go from one incremental to the next on a Mac your old software will need to be upgraded as well. This seems especially true with Adobe software, which is both widely used and fairly expensive. I use a PC and currently use a 10 year old version of photoshop. It does plenty for me and I have no desire to pay $600 for CS6 (or whatever the current version is.)

Backwards compatibility comes at a price though. It makes things complicated. Sometimes it's buggy.

I honestly believe that the competition between Apple and Microsoft has made both macOS and windows better. I think the same is true between iOS and android. Android would probably be totally different if it hadn't been for iOS.

---------- Post added at 12:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:22 PM ----------

No body buys mac pros. Well not many people. The desktop market is shrinking even for PCs.

If you take a look at their more consumer level products the price difference is not so great. you can get a 13" macbook air for $1199. Sometimes less if you look around. You get a higher res display than most PC's in that price range. Sure you can talk about CPUs, GPUs, RAM, etc, but often OEMs will cheap out on the stuff you don't hear about as often. Chipsets, FSB, video, etc.

As for linux, yeah it's turned in to a fairly decent OS in the last few years. Most things work on most machines. wifi drivers are way easier to find. It's great for networking and server farms, but it still has a serious lack of quality software. Gimp is terrible compared to photoshop. Inkscape is still buggy compared to illustrator. There's no professional accounting software. You can't reliably open office documents in linux without formatting issues. (of course you some times cant do that between version of office either) There are open source audio and video editing suites for linux, but most I've seen are not as stable as their retail windows/mac counterparts.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] drnecropolis:
So, by that way of thinking, Macbook airs are better because they have a better display??

I'll take my Toshiba Satellite Pro that was a lot cheap then $1200 and is faster than a $1200 macbook ever dreamed of being..

You can keep the better display.. I'll keep the machine that is functional for me..
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
well i didn't expect this. my recent comments were triggered by frustrating conversations with mac users. i don't actually think osx is totally bad, but replacing it's window manager with something like xfce is the first thing i would do if i had one(i know it's possible but i dont know if it will still run all the native osx applications when running an alternative window manager), then i'd install linux as a secondary os.

the arguments with no substance about how secure and stable and user friendly they are aggravate me because i have used them, i approached them optimistically thinking they had good screens and quality control and a great ui and a powerful bsd based backend but i was severely disappointed. i have used so many window managers on windows and linux i lost count but i have never been as frustrated as when using a mac. it is absolutely the worst window manager out there.

it's the blind worship of anything apple that drives me nuts and i'm not even talking about people here, just venting about people in real life. i don't mind a discussion about the finer points but blindly repeating "screens, colors, stability, graphics, stability, security, user friendly" and not having reasons to back up those claims or knowledge about what else is out there and making comparisons to bad experiences with pc's that cost 1/3 the price and are loaded with "freeware" from the oem sends me into a hulk like rage. actually in a recent argument we were comparing a $10,000+ mac to average pcs. the guy was a pressman for a major printing company and never had experience with a consumer grade mac or a professional grade pc but was talking about how a pc can't be used in printing because it doesn't have the color trueness of his work mac with a $7000 monitor and specroradiometer equipment. that's just ignorance there. as if the color correction isn't available to a workstation pc.

error mounting /sdcard!

I hope someone can help me, thanks!

p.s. i have no external sd card insert in the phone
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultramag69:
look for a file called superwipe, or megawipe. this will format the internal card however you do need to backup your memory card, you will loose any non backed up data... doing a nandroid backup will NOT back up the internall sd card...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mopral:
Last time I check, mmcblk1 is external SDcard and not internal SDcard

I understand why it does not work: it try to format external SDcard but as you said you have none

Which recovery do you use?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RazielSasy:
I supposed that it could be this. I use cwm-based recovery v5.5.0.4 cf-v1.5 (built-in omega 13)

Sorry but i'm android noob i think that recovery is installed on nand but it's built-in with custom rom, right? how can update i my recovery?

This error is strange because even if it does not find a external sd should still format the internal sd instead the process stops :confused:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mopral:
No it could not switch to internal: command are created with a fix mount point in them so it only apply to this mount point and nothing else

AFAIK, the only thing that can format your internal SDcard should be a factory reset but it will also erase all your apps/contacts/settings in the process so make a backup if needed

There is maybe "format /data" in recovery but I am not sure if it will wipe the full internal SDcard or just the /data partition which contains your apps
