As soon as you flashed a custom recovery you added to the flash counter. The only time you have to worry about the flash counter is if you need to return the phone for warranty, otherwise ignore it.

If you need to send it in for repair, look for triangle away and flash stock ROM. Hopefully you will never have to worry about the counter ;) Just make sure to make a nandroid backup before starting to play with different ROM's and have fun!

Thank you! I hate to admit it but I sort of like the stock rom but I am sure I will be ready to start flashing soon. :D

Well, I really like the Otterbox Defender, and my wife likes the Commuter. But Otterbox has absolutelty no indication when they will be available. Black was available for a short time, but is now sold out. All the other colors are not even available yet.

What is taking them so long?

Does anyone have any information on when these cases are going to be released?

I've had my two phones for two weeks now. I really need to get a case on them. :eek:
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Saintfyre:
Unfortunately I have no idea in regards to your question, BUT my question about the Otterbox's is do they interfere with the sensors on this phone?

My concern is the IR blaster, it would be a shame to sacrifice features for protection.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] bill4d:
Where is the IR Blaster? On the top?

I got my black Otterbox Defender the day after I got my S4. It does not cover any sensors nor any microphones. The IR blaster has it's own dedicated hole in the case.

the only thing bad about the case, is that the side-buttons are a little hard to press and the screen-protector, in some lighting, looks like it has oil prints under it.

Hi All,

I Just bout my new Samsung galaxy s4 I9500.

I want to buy a 32GB memory card but I don't really understand all the classes(class 10,2,8, etc...) and types( micro sdhc, micro sd,HC1, etc,,).

Please If someone can help me and guid me I will really appreciate it :)

Thank you all,

Opalbel;)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zymesh:
Class number indicates how fast the read and write is. The larger the number the better.

SDHC is your standard micro sd card up to 32gb. While the SDXC can go up to 2 TB i think? Its format will also be exFat meaning it can read/store single file greater then 4gb. Not sure if SDXC exFat format is supported for S4? since S4 can read up to 64gb i assume it can read the 64gb class 10 SDXC cards. if not then you can convert it to FAT32 but it wont read a file which is greater than 4gb
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opalbel:
So if understood you right the fastest and the best for s4 is sdxc class 10 with 64gb ?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zymesh:
Yes... unless that type is not supported by S4, i havent researched the S4 side yet. Currently im using a SDXC Class 10 64gb exFat format on my Nokia 808.

I think the packaging has the Green android robot guy with a label of Supports Android or something. I threw away my packaging but im using a Sandisk Ultra if that helps.

I cant vouch for S4 personally since i havent tried inserting it yet. Hope someone here has tried.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opalbel:
Thanks :)

Is there anyone that know for sure what is the best memory card for the s4 I9500?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twisted_mind:
I got a samsung 64gb pro class 10 sdxc. Works perfectly in my s4. Formatted the card within the phone and am able to transfer files larger than 4gb in it, so am assuming the phone formatted it to exfat.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opalbel:
Yea it's an option but I think I will take the 32gb, but for the 32gb I didn't find the xc model.

How is sdhc hc-1? Will it work or is there a better one that will work?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zymesh:

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmccaughin1@gmail.com:
From my understanding, the Galaxy S4 will only read up to 64gb. anything higher, phone won't read it. Also, some say to be careful with the Sandisk cards as they could be difficult to work with on the S4. I have a Samsung 32gb card and it works flawessly.

My aim is to make kind of minimalistic, debloated kernel which will be perfect for daily usage and it will be speed demon whenever you would like to play some games ;)

Please respect my time spend on doing that kernel and read at least those few opening posts :)

You probably would like to have the best kernel possible so please left here TONS of feedback and opinions, suggestions, etc ;)

I won't write that my kernel is super and the fastest and that every feature/update give +50% performance, it is stupid attitude.

FEATURES:

*BFS (brain**** scheduler) - doesn't give too much cpu boost but make performance more stable :)

*fsync disabled

*o3 and ofast optimiaztion - I will stick to classy,old,good toolchains, I won't use LINARO ones because I don't see any point in doing so

*removed slowdown in downloading files when device is locked

*forced fast AC charging (device charges faster via USB)

*only available iosched is SIO

*440mb of ram - I won't fight for every mb 440 or 445 doesn't really make big difference and it is huge value already, but I will try to expand it in future

*20% UV for LCD

*changed readahead for optimal sd performance

*LOAD_FREQ (4*HZ+61) avoids loadavg Moire

*nonblocking for entropy tweaks and some entropy changes

*debugging diabled (gpu too)

*frandom

FREQUENCIES (cpu,gpu,voltage)

1520mhz - 253,3mhz - 1375000mV

1320mhz - 220mhz - 1300000mV

1096mhz - 219,2mhz - 1200000mV

800mhz - 200mhz - 1075000mV

400mhz - 200mhz - 1000000mV

TO DO:

*rework voltages, they suck as for now

*rework cpu frequencies - I don;t like removing 200mhz but was needed to fix SODs

*rework lowmemory killer and ram management

*find and add good scheduler or tweak on of existing ones and delete rest of them

*add BLN (backlight notification)

*tweak touchscreen - I have to find optiomal values

*other stuff

I now there are many things to do yet, but kernel is really fine to use for now. I have limited time because I have my finals ATM. cheeres and peace

There is a problem with uploading... so I will post it here for a while:

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] zardak:
Short answer/opinion:

Voltages should be higher to support more unlucky devices (like mine), we can undervolt next; overvolting kernel default values instead of UV to reach stability is not safe imho.

Frequencies like: 200, 400, 800, 1200, 1500, aren't good? GPU, asaik should be: 200, 200, 200, 220, 250, no float.

And about SoD (maybe can help): I'm currenty using untouched jackpot's kernel with range 100~1200 (stock voltages); SoD appear rarely, but not "real SoD", if I push some hw button for some seconds the device turns alive. I experienced real SoDs immediately after undervolt all the freqs. This make me think that is not a low frequency problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Sultanxda:

I changed voltages a little bit, will uptade soon in OP

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Sultanxda:
Overclocking is not a universal feature; not all devices can handle the same overclock. Your device's overclocking abilities will be exactly the same between my kernel and KOala's kernel (unless our GPU frequencies are different from one another).

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Sultanxda:

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] KOala888:
Thanks for answering mate :)

Yup, we should respect people making all those good things and remember that we aren't authors of most of stuff ; )

I will try to clean OP a little bit and update kernel today, still kind of dissappointed with the performance comparing to my old kernel (at least benchmarks)

I remember I saw some "bugs" in you repo once, I can find it again if you would like to ;)

For example: fixing of touch unresponsivness - afaik it occured only on crespo, we don't have such a bug (at least I think so). Like there was a fix for areis I believe that fixed bad sensitivity in the edges of screen
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Sultanxda:
I added mathkid's touch responsiveness fix.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] KOala888:
check the desrciption of his commit ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Sultanxda:
Yeah what's wrong with it?

Also, I feel like BFS is slower but the performance with BFS is more constant.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] KOala888:
Well I think that this bug existed only on crespo. We don't have it afaik

Hmm, I don't really feel the difference in benchmarks ;) Maybe little stabilization. Weird accually, should be nice boost. Maybe it is not turned on somehow...?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Sultanxda:
No it's turned on. I noticed greater lag in games. Tbh I've never had a good experience with BFS on my computer but I'll keep it in my kernel for now because it is much more stable and constantly has the same performance.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] ratyfu:
Yep, i know it's probably just my device.

But as I've never been a great overclocker, I make lots of stupid questions, because I don't know if the kernels differ enough to make one of them work on my weak device. I guess it's my GPU's fault, because on older kernels I could always overclock to 1.2ghz. Well, not anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] KOala888:
Live oc would do the thing ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Sultanxda:
Live oc is just an oc interface; it won't improve a device's ability to overclock.

It has no cnnection to kernel. What problems exacly do you have? Maybe a cleen rom install with wipe would help. Weird thing

Wysyłane z mojego Nexus S za pomocą Tapatalk 2
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] ratyfu:
I wiped everything prior to installing sultan 3.5 and iurnaits newest cm10.1. Only thing i couldn't wipe was dbdata, because it doesn't exist. Datadata either. Then I flashed your kernel without wiping anything.

I lose apps and can't restore them. I have to manually delete their data folders for that.

Also setup wizard came back on 2bd reboot. And now, even though your kernel works great on default oc, when I leave the player unattended, it has turned itself off. Not even rebooted. Just plain off.

Oh, and the reason why I refuse to give up, is that when I first installed the kernel and oced to 1.4ghz it was working for 4 hours straight under heavy usage and performed incredibly well.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] KOala888:

[LG Optimus 2x] tryin:
Hi all,

is it possibile to modify the content of the files fills with the content of the partitions read from the Tegra of my LG P990 with nvflash?

I had read the partition from the board with

nvflash -r --read <-partitionID-> my_partition.img

Unix's command file said to me that the output file is data:

$ file my_partition.img
my_partition.img: data

But if the correct img file is provided to 'file', for example the file that nvflash returned when we asked it to read the partition 23, the APP partition, 'file' said:

23_APP.img: Linux rev 1.0 ext4 filesystem data, UUID=xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx (needs journal recovery) (extents) (large files)

How i can mount this type of image file ?

Easily with the 'mount' Linux utility

mount ./my_partition.img ./tmp_directory

Now, if I add the su binary of chains_dd compiled for my platform in the system partition image file and after,

reflash the image file on my O2X I should able to get root, right?

It seems too easy...

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!
[LG Optimus 2x] p.valenta:
Yes, it is "easy" like that. I made similar staff (extract partition image from official update, mount, extract selected files).

Edit: Only I remember that I need to specify mount parameters related to partition format and mounting access.
[LG Optimus 2x] tryin:
Have you really gain root access only by copyng (and launching :D) su binary in xbin directory?
[LG Optimus 2x] tryin:
Y E S . . .

Indeed, if you only want a root prompt, chains_dd's binary is too much...
