Hello, is there a way to flash a kernel with loop device support on the XT1095?

I've been googling and searching on this forum but can't find. Maybe my english for search is not the best?

Thank you.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AGISCI:
Loop device support already works, no need to do anything special.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demencia89:
Hey, ty for replying. I tried Loop device check app and it says my device doesn't support it. I'm on official 6.0 on an XT1095.

Is there another way to check if my device supports it?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AGISCI:
It does. I know it does, I use the loop device to mount and run a linux image on my phone.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demencia89:
That's exactly what I was behind :)

Thanks a lot, I'll give it a try then.

Mind sharing what linux have you tried on the phone and how did it go?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AGISCI:
I have used debian a while back, currently I have arch linux on it. It went very well, I use VNC and SSH to connect to it, everything works great, I installed mate as my DE.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demencia89:
I'm getting force close on the complete linux installer app. What app or steps are you using to mount the linux image on your phone?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AGISCI:
Complete linux installer has never worked for me on any of my phones.

However the app linux deploy works perfectly on my moto x 2014, moto x 2013 and my moto razr i.

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demencia89:
I'm having trouble to get the ssh and vnc services up. Did you come up with this problem too? I've found others having the same problem but no solution. Theres a solution that says I should reconfigure ENV on Linux Deploy settings but it didn't work.. I'm trying to set up Arch by the way.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AGISCI:
I have no problems with them. Do they not start? Is there an error message? Before you installed did you select vnc and ssh in components to be installed?

Samsung 128Go EVO plus 80MB/s MicroSD SDXC UHS-I Cl10 MB-MC128DA

[IMG="Samsung 128 Go EVO Plus"]http://images.samsung.com/is/image/samsung/fr_MB-MC128DA-EU_001_Front_red?$TM-Gallery$[/IMG]
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
Samsung has some new fast micro SD cards under their EVO Pro+ line, and I know Sandisk just released some new ones too. I have a 200GB Sandisk for ym Surface Pro 4 and some other Sandisk Exteme Pro cards laying around.

Here are the links:

64gb EVO Pro+ (95mb/s read 90mb/s write)

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B012DTJ8NU/ref=psd_mlt_nbc_B01273L37G_rbi

64gb Sandisk Exteme Pro (95mb/s read 90mb/s write)

---------- Post added at 05:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:38 PM ----------

That card is slow in terms of read/write speeds so he's better off with a 64gb card that's faster
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] flarbear:
Yes, according to the specs and claims Evo+ (80/20) is good for HD video recording, but Pro+ (95/90) is good for 4K video recording.

The tests seem to back up the speed ratings:

https://www.ephotozine.com/article/samsung-pro--evo--microsd-memory-card-review-28061

It looks like you can get Evo+ for half the price (or similar price for twice the storage) compared to the Pro+, but the Pro+ isn't too bad, price-wise.

The new Sandisk UHS-II cards are much more expensive and they have a new pin out (backwards compatible) that it isn't clear if the S7 supports. They also have amazing read speeds (275 vs 95), but the write speeds are not that much better than the UHS-I/U3 cards (100 vs 90). I'm wondering if this would help with things like scrolling through gigabytes of saved camera photos?

Does the S7 even support the UHS-II bus speeds/pins?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] sanjay228:
If you pre-order with Best Buy they will give you an EVO+ 64gb microSD for free along with the VR Headset.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] vivelafrance:
I wouldn't choose the Evo ones from Sandisk. These are nowhere as fast as the "Extreme Pro", or "Samsung Pro+" ones.

I'm angry at Sandisk cause they will only release their newly superfast microSD cards way after the release of the Galaxy S7 and I need one NOW, not 6 months after I receive my phone... Pretty stupid from them, they should have planned this better.

Right now, i'm still hesitating between these 2:

SanDisk Extreme PRO 64GB microSDXC UHS-I/U3 Memory Card 95MB/s Read FFP (SDSDQXP-064G-​FFPA)

SanDisk Ultra 200 GB microSDXC Memory Card up to 90 MB/s, Class 10

I actually wanted the Extreme Pro mentioned above but in its 128GB version. However it's not out yet... very disappointed
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] flarbear:
I just noticed that Lexar has a UHS-II/U3 card up on Amazon and it is less than the UHS-I/U3 Pro+

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00U77V5IW/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] flarbear:
I haven't been able to find any specs or tests of the write speed of the Lexar card. There are a couple of anecdotal reports of write speeds in the 40MB/s range in the Amazon comments, but at least one of those was revised when they changed their test environment to 60MB/s.

On Lexar's site they list both this "Professional 1000x" range that has 150MB/s read speed and a newer "Professional 1800x" range that has 270MB/s speeds similar to the latest Sandisk cards, but they simply say "write speeds lower" without any spec or claim...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] vivelafrance:
Lexar have a reputation of really really bad write speeds (which is the most important especially if you're recording videos). Their read speeds are good but their write speeds are random.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] flarbear:
The Ultra 200 is not shown to be U1 or U3 and has no spec on write performance (only read performance) even on the SanDisk web site. Given that they list write performance for most of their other cards, I take this to mean that they aren't making any minimum write guarantees beyond the Class10 logo on the card which only guarantees 10MB/s...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] vivelafrance:
I had the same thought but when I read reviews, comments, I noticed that no one complained, including the ones making 4K videos... so I don't know...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] flarbear:
I was looking at these charts on Panasonic's web site and they claim that U3 is required for 4K (apparently U1 == Class10, U3 == 3xClass10?):

http://panasonic.net/avc/sdcard/features/speed_class.html

On the other hand, in the chart near the top, the speed bar for the U1/Class10 speed class extends above HD Video into the 4K range, but it doesn't cover the 4K range. Does that mean if you are using a highly compressed 4K stream then it can keep up?

Also, if you look lower, the main issue is minimum guaranteed write speed. They show a Class 4 card keeping up with HD video for a while and then dropping frames at some point and failing a ways into the operation. Speed class is a minimum write speed guarantee so if the videos are short then caching and other considerations may mean that the problem doesn't show up right away, but if you try a sustained capture then you may be out of luck. With 4G RAM the S7 might be able to buffer quite a bit of 4K video in RAM and deal with slower cards, but a smaller camera might rely more on the raw write speed of the card itself.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] vivelafrance:
I'm not entirely sure the RAM is an important factor here. Are you sure it is? First it depends how much RAM Android 6 and third-party apps take and then how long the RAM has to keep the video into memory before the card can write them onto itself...

I really wish the brand new 200MB/sec cards that will be out Q2 2016 were out now!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] flarbear:
I don't know which is why I phrased that as speculation ("might/may"). RAM helps by smoothing over brief periods where the card doesn't keep up with the streaming speed. With no caching at all the card has to write every video frame as it is generated and before the next frame comes along. With RAM, it can stutter on one frame, but be able to catch up on the next. With enough RAM as a buffer/cache the card only has to deliver the required bitrate as an average write speed, not as a guaranteed minimum write speed.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] vivelafrance:
yes you could be right. But to me it sounds more like the way Windows manage RAM, not Android.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] UnixSlayer:
UHS-3 are the fastest....
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] vivelafrance:
You mean UHS-I class 3 (or U3) ... lol

UHS-3 doesn't exist yet. "UHS-2 U3" cards will be out later this year (250-280MB/sec).
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] flarbear:
There is no UHS-3 (yet), only UHS-I and UHS-II. Some Amazon listings say UHS-3 when they mean U3 (though that is short for "UHS Speed Class 3" so it is understandable why they might state it that way, but the accepted way of stating the speed class is "U3" since the "UHS" acronym is already being used to specify the high speed bus support).

SD, SDHC and SDXC are formats. They specify file systems and maximum capacity and card info structures. For instance, SDXC means the card will be formatted with the exFAT file system which may not be supported by all devices unless they specifically mention SDXC support.

UHS-I and UHS-II are ultra high speed buses that can be supported by SDHC and SDXC cards and have faster maximum theoretical transfer rates through the interface, but don't specify anything about the speed of the flash storage itself. UHS-I uses the same pins as regular cards, but UHS-II requires the device to support additional pins in order to get the faster rates.

Class2,4,6,10 and U1 and U3 are speed ratings which guarantee a minimum supported write speed so you know that they can suffice for your application. (Note that they don't say anything about read speed since that is generally not a gating factor and is usually much faster than the write speed anyway.)

Currently U3 is the fastest minimum guarantee, but cards can still vary a lot in speed as long as they meet that minimum. One U3 rated card may barely meet the minimum, while another is 3 times faster. Also, one U3 rated card may reliably write things all day at just over the required speed rating, never dipping below that. Another may write things usually 3x faster, but occasionally have dips that dip down to slower speeds as long as they stay above the minimum guarantee. The latter card will be faster for many things if you are waiting for it to write stuff, but both have the same speed rating because the speed rating represents the minimum speed that it promises for sustained writing. Benchmarks and real world experience can tell you more beyond the speed rating.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital#Ultra_High_Speed_.28UHS.29_bus
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] flarbear:
Actually UHS-II U3 cards are already out. The 250MB/s read ratings of the newer cards that will be coming out soon are not expressed by either of those numbers.

UHS-II has 2 higher bus speeds - 156MB/s for half duplex operation or 312MB/s for full duplex operation. So these newer UHS-II cards are really the first full duplex cards coming out, but they are still just UHS-II.

[Update: Oops, the following is incorrect:]

The Wikipedia page implies that the extra pins in UHS-II are only needed for full duplex operation which makes sense, but is non-authoritative.

[Correction: Here is what it really says:]

The Wikipedia page mentions that the faster rate of 312MB/s is only available in half duplex mode which is a uni-directional transfer of data either onto, or from the card, but not in both directions at once. The lower 156MB/s speed is in full duplex mode which is a bi-directional mode where you can both transfer data onto and off of the card at the same time. So, basically, they can borrow the write lines to double the read speed or vice versa, but if you want to read and write simultaneously then you are stuck with half the speed. It's not clear how this will be used in practice, hopefully the devices and cards will dynamically choose whether to work in full or half duplex mode depending on the operations being performed at any point in time.

[End of correction update]
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] flarbear:
I went down to the local Best Buy last night since they have the Sandisk Extreme Plus 64gb card on sale now ($49 down from ?$149?, but I assume that list price is never actually used in practice).

While I was there I found a 64gb Samsung Pro+ with a shelf tag of $49 as well so I bought both. It turns out the shelf tag on the Pro+ was wrong and it rang up as $89, but I got them to match their own shelf tag and got both for $49.

I just ran some benchmarks using the SD card reader on my SurfaceBook and got the following results.

The Sandisk has faster reads, especially the random reads, but the Samsung has faster writes. Both are plenty fast enough to keep up with a 4k video stream, though (which requires 30MB/s speed class), so the faster reads of the Sandisk may make it a better choice. The difference in writes is much larger than the difference in reads, though, so if you write a lot then that may make a difference, but most people tend to read much more than they write and so as long as the card can keep up with the 4k video streaming rate, the read speeds can be more compelling.

One thing to note is that I tested the Samsung twice on my desktop rig until I decided that the card reader I have on it is only a USB2 reader and that was limiting my results (40MB/s-ish for two test runs) and then I switched to the SurfaceBook where I ran the two results posted here.

I tried to run the AS SSD benchmark, but not only did it insist on running the same amount of data for both the random and sequential tests, making the sequential tests take over 20 minutes apiece to run, but it also exhibited flaky behavior on the queue depth tests that I've seen before that the Crystal benchmark doesn't seem to be affected by. In the past, this flaky behavior can be fixed by updating some drivers, but I didn't want to bother since experience has shown that its results are not that different from the Crystal results once you get done poking everything you need to poke to make the AS benchmark happy...

Did you use the phone without an SD card at all when you first got it? Like I said, it doesn't happen all the time but when it does, it's a little annoying.

Amazon.com has the Sandisk 200Gb MicroSD card Class 10, not UHS1, for the next 8 hours only at $59.99. Yesterday it was $79.99. See here.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] flarbear:
That is a UHS-I card (the "I" logo next to the XC logo identifies it as UHS-I).

Here is the page on Sandisk's site mentioning it is UHS-I: http://web.sandisk.com/products/memory-cards/microsd/ultra-premium-edition/

Note that it does not have a U# speed rating, which UHS cards usually have, but Class 10 has the same minimum speed guarantee as U1, the lowest UHS speed class rating. Cards with a U# speed class rating "tend" to have faster writes, but there is nothing about their rating that guarantees that. The 200gb that was benchmarked earlier in this thread produced a result of nearly 16MB/s in writes which is well above the 10MB/s speed of Class 10 and U1, but an Evo+ which was rated U1 came in at over 22MB/s. Neither of them is fast enough for U3, but both should be fast enough for the 6MB/s that I clocked the S7's 4k video bandwidth at...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] 499:
I was in this boat this morning. I was going to go with the 200gb on sale then realized I may have had issues because of my current kingston sd and ended up going to bbuy and picking up the pro plus 128 for 89. I took the hit once but the samsung card should be good for the long run.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Gr8gorilla:
I have the newer Samsung 64gb Pro+. It is UHS-I U3 speed card. I haven't noticed any lag issues since changing the card to adoptable storage. I would revert the theme and see if it's a problem.

That SanDisk card has write speed WAY too slow @ 17 MB/s imho.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] shollywood:
So based on the limitation of the phones read/write, what's say the minimum one could go with to ensure decent performance. I was considering this:

Silicon Power 128GB up to 75MB/s MicroSDXC UHS-1 Class 10, Elite Flash Memory Card with Adaptor

Decent price point and seems in the middle of the "pack" with decent reviews....

Update: Benchmarked at 50.63 read and 17.26 write

Perhaps something quicker is in the cards....

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] vivelafrance:
The difference of price between the Lexar Pro 1000x and the Lexar Pro 1800x both 128GB is enormous compared to the speed gain. Only an average of 7-8MB/sec for double the price
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] enjoythemusic:
Agree only get the Lexar 1800x if you truly plan to take advantage of USB3 (outside the phone environment) or want to use the microsd within a device (now or in the future) that supports UHS-II capability.

Say, has anyone else ordered a Samsung 128GB PRO+ card direct from Samsung's website? I put in an order last Tuesday on the 15th and according to them it was ready to ship and would take 1-3 business days. It's been over a week and I have yet to receive shipping confirmation. Got in contact with a service rep and he mentioned something about it being on "pending fulfillment". My card was charged the transaction literally the day of placing the order and now I feel like I'm just sitting in limbo. I feel like I placed an order from a shady e-bay listing and not direct from a multi-billion dollar corporation's website.

Up to 95MB/s Read and 90MB/s Write speed with Class 10 and U3 compatibility

I got this card today and I have the Galaxy S7. This card sucks! Using A1 SD Bench to test, I only get about 55-57 MB/s Read and 28-32 MB/s write in the few benchmarks I have done. I was expecting way better than this. If I knew I wouldn't get past 40 MB/s writes, I would have gotten a much cheaper card.

Sadly I got mine from Best Buy, so I might be stuck with it. I have to check their policy on that. If I was getting at least 70+/50+ for R/W speeds in the S7, then I would be happy with it. But otherwise there are certainly cheaper cards with similar speeds. I paid $90 for this card on sale. Too expensive for the speeds I am getting.
