Well this is a more sophisticated approach, again, not everyone knows how to use or where to get benchmark tools and copying a single file is a pretty good indicator ;)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PaulW21781:
Trouble with copying on Ubuntu (in my case anyways due to 4Gb RAM) is a good 600mb is buffered before copying, so the transfer speeds show as around 35MB/s. hdparm gives me a better indication of the speed :)

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exssrerion:
Previously, I used 1.6 without root, but now I face problem of memory shortage. Then I decide to root and make app2SD. I don't know whether when I upgrade to 2.1, the method of root will be the same as 1.6 or not?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddotpatel:
Use a custom ROM based on 2.1. Don't update to official 2.1as getting root access or being able to flash custom ROMs may become very difficult.

There are loads of custom 2.1 ROMs which are aiming to be tweaked versions of the original without all the crap.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] svetius:
We heard from a lot of users and moderators on the issue of whether to put all Galaxy S forums under one roof or to offer separate forums for them all.

For the sake of keeping confusion to a minimum plus ensuring that XDA stays as organized as possible, we've officially decided to launch forums for all four variants of the Galaxy S. We expect these four devices (plus the unlocked Galaxy S) to be very popular devices once they're on sale.

Here are the links!

Sprint Epic 4G

AT&T Captivate

T-Mobile Vibrant

Verizon Fascinate

This forum will be for the unlocked European version of the Galaxy S that has been on sale since June.

Thanks to everyone!

Edit by Chainfire:

Please note various Q&A from the i9000 (unlocked European version) FAQ may still be relevant to your device:

Is there any way for them to be all under the same parent forum on the tree so that we don't get heavy fragmentation in discussions? It would make it easier for people to find threads that were for other Galaxy S derived devices that also affected them, but were posted in the other forums.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Rawat:
This. It will be a pain to trawl through 5 different threads for Themes and Apps for example, which will be the same for all devices.

I liked the idea of different development forums And keeping everything else unified. I don't remember any of htc wm phones being separated by carrier. Why separate all of the galaxies?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] svetius:
The Themes and Apps sections will indeed have some redundancy, and we may remove those forums except from the main Galaxy S I9000. Then the trouble becomes that people will post about themes and apps with the OTHER forums like General, etc. So, we'll have to play it by ear and see how things go!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Rawat:
Keep the forums separate, but how about having a universal Themes and Apps topics all linked to the main one here? :cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] caelestis2:
can we have all the varieties themes and apps page link to the galaxy s one? Accessories and ROM dev. is nice to have separated but general and apps do not. If a thread poster feels it is phone specific he can just state the variant in the title no?

[Galaxy S I9000 General] magicdroid:
sorry.. but bad move to create separate forums... we now have to check 5 forums to find what we want.

this reminds me of the G1/Magic32B/Magic32A forums where nearly all development and modding was posted in the G1 forum (dev device), leaving the Magic forums abandoned, or full of links to G1 forum posts for those with 32B radios.

I predict that the Vibrant & Euro unlocked S will be the most used devices, leaving the other forums as good as empty or posted with stuff like "I found this on the Vibrant/S forum".

what about the forum search? will we now need to search all forums? increases the load right?

anyway.. last time I checked the poll regarding this, most of the users voted for seperate SUB forums.. did this change so drastically in the last weeks?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Arkymedes:
Separate forums of the SAME device by US carriers??? WTF?

Disagree... completely.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] reuthermonkey:
Precisely.

I see no reason for 5 separate forums. I think a much better idea would have to have a single GalaxyS forum, and add subforums for specific variants as the need arises (if it ever does).

Having 5 forums just wastes everyone's time. It even makes searching useless .
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Dopedangel:
What amazing is they ask for a vote then go against it WTF
[Galaxy S I9000 General] gTen:
I think it would have been best to make them all in 1 forum and then have a sub forums for GSM and CDMA...

or make a sub forum for each device and a main forum for all of them to have a General...

cause there are many issues people are talking about in the Vibrant and the I9000 which are EXACTLY the same...

not to mention we need some stickies with common issues and questions..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] BaggyBizzle:
On a similar note. The Samsung Vibrant or Galaxy S similar to the european version has 4 haptic buttons whereas the latter has only 2 and the

Big plastic intergrated middle button. Is this something people would prefer and would it be beneficial in the long run of android where it would

have been if the phone was to run windows 7.

BTW.... I Am not pleased that the American market also shipped this with the Avatar Film pre-installed...LOL!

[HTC Aria General] asiancuta:
ditto. i've been wondering what the best reasons to add third-party apps and to root my Aria. if it's worth risking voiding warranty and all that mess.

i can't seem to find the answer (via Google) except that it gives you all this access you can't get without it being rooted. i'm fine with the factory settings and setup. yeah i'm stuck with ATT's bloatware, but nothing Advanced Task Killer can't kill.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] kurtkbee:
Guys,

After a failure to get my phone to

connect

to odin-3 when it was in download mode, I took out the battery (since I did not know how to get it "out" of download mode) just to get it to boot up again.

No harm, as odin did not start to copy the firmware to the phone (since it could not communicate with it), the phone was working and all my apps were there, however, when I plugged my phone into my laptop the PC Kies application would start but my phone to attempt to load "MTP Appliation", however it would just flip back to the touchwiz screen and back to MTP Application then back to touchwiz again (non-stop).

Not sure why this is happening, or what I broke ?

I have since (using Odin) flashed my phone

with the latest (European) firmware but the problem is still there, MTP mode just restarting all the time and kies never connecting (I also tried reinstalled the Desktop Kies app).

Anyone know how I can get this working again? :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kurtkbee:
On a related note, i also installed doubletwist (before the steps above) and had to turn on usb debug mode.

I have since turned it off when not syncing with dkubletwist but noticed sometimes the music player saying mass storage device mode is on?

I wonder if some "state/lock" file is left behind somewhere on the phone?

Could the use of doubletwist be related to my problem?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ryukent:
As per my post in the other thread, this method seemed to sort the problem when I had a similar issue. Not sure if you're using a different launcher, but that is what caused the problem for me. Changing to TW didn't help even after killing the other launcher (ADW or Pro). However, once set to default (TW), I could reboot the phone and it would connect fine (without flicking on and off). There's no real need to Keis though if all your contacts are with Google as USB storage mode is more convenient.

I had this problem too. It was caused because only in idle mode of the Samsung home launcher can keis connect. You may have installed a different launcher. Try the following:

Put usb to keis mode in settings

download home switcher from the market

run home switcher an set touchwiz as default home

Reboot phone (task killing other launchers don't work for me.)

make you phone is in the home screen - press home to get there

now connect the cable with keis running on pc

sync everything you need to

In future I suggest you move all contact to Google so they sync over the air and you'll no longer need keis. crappy software!​
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kurtkbee:
Thanks so much.

I got launcher switcher and it listed my launcher as unknown. I just switched it to touchwiz and set that as default.

Once i get home i will restart the phone and test connecting with kies.

Thanks for the QUICK reply.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kurtkbee:
So your recommendation did not work for me.

What did work is actually unmounting the internal sd card and formatting it.

Unfortunately My camera is crashing when i open it.

Funny thing is that my phone sseems so fast now (no lag).
[Galaxy S I9000 General] argumon:
Same problem here and I never used Odin. Must be something different ... any ideas are welcome.

BTW: which latest firmware did you install?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] n0waY:
Has anyone of you for whom formating the internal SD card solves the problem installed SoundHound? I spent the last hours with formating the SD card and then copying back my data piece by piece and by this I found out that the "soundhound" folder is the thing which leads to the problem. I have all my data back on the internal SD card except for the "soundhound" folder and the connection works! If I now copy this folder back the problem of the restarting "MTP Application" returns. If I now delete the folder again it is working again! So at least for me SoundHound or furthermore it's folder on the internal SD clearly is the problem! Also if I copy the folder to the external SD card instead of the internal one, the MTP connection does not work and if I delete it again it works!

Can anyone confirm/reproduce this?

//edit: After looking to the content of the folder I would assume that the problem is that the MTP Application has a problem with specific file extensions since the folder only includes files with no or extreme long file extensions.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Kil:
Thanks! same here, soundhound is the problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] n0waY:
I must say that Soundhound itself is not the problem. The long file extensions of the saved files are the problem. They're more apps which use such files like e.g. the skyfire browser. Just delete them and it will work again.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ssj4Gogeta1:
Thanks a TON. I mounted my card in the data storage mode, opened the internal card in my computer and did a search for *.*, switched to detail view, sorted by file type. There were several files with long extensions in the folder "TunnyBrowser" which is created by DolphinBrowser HD. I uninstalled it, deleted the folder and now it connects fine again!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] turbobeagle:
SoundHound + Kies issue fixed

Hi guys,

I am a developer at SoundHound and am responsible for our Android app. Sorry to hear about the problem you've been having with our app and the Samsung Kies software.

Just wanted to let you know that we've updated our app to be compatible with the Samsung Kies MTP sync software. As has been mentioned in this post, the problem is caused by files on the SD card with long or missing file extensions.

So please upgrade to the latest version of SoundHound on the Android Market. If you uninstalled SoundHound because of this issue, I hope you'll give us another shot!

Naturally, we can't do anything about other apps that generate these offending filenames.

If you continue to have any problems, please feel free to respond to this post or PM me.

Thanks!

Rico
