On Verizon, Samsung Galaxy S appers to have only 384 mb of RAM... Samsung is lying to us!!!

Check engadget: http://www.engadget.com/2010/11/02/full-samsung-continuum-specs-leak-out-in-verizon-comparison-char/
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ardf69:
As said in more threads sgs has 512 mb but you loose ram for kernel, shared memory and phone memory. At the end you have about 300 MB of available memory on stock kernel. So samsung doesn't lies.

2: samsung now markets the sgs as 384megs of ram, but used to market it as 512megs.. so yes, yes it's arguable but in the end by making this change they agree they lied
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EarlZ:
Link to where it is said as a 384MB device, coz currently we only have 350+ max usable but its unstable but the device functions wll at 340MB usable.

I wonder how the guys with the N1 reacted since they only see 192MB of their 512MB ram :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hol17:
Where do they market as less than 512? And I hope that you are not using the Verizon picture as a basis to your reasoning.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oletros:
N1 only saw ~200MB of RAM because a bug in Linux kernel. With the bug corrected you see 512MB of TOTAL RAM.

And yes, N1 owners complained about this. The difference is that there was a lot less fanboys defending Google or HTC about this matter.

Even the Tab has 444MB :D

or

youtube.com/watch?v=EMLJOa2KFK0&feature=player_embedded

at the 37th second you'll see 444MB total while they advertize with "Internal	16/32 GB storage, 512 MB RAM"

and such a tab is even more expensive then a sgs.. =/
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewluecke:
I'm 99% sure that's wrong. It wasn't a bug, it just didn't support larger amounts which was because of the way ARM was designed apparently. Linux was designed that way, and needed to be updated.

This is a totally different situation, and not sure why billboa is claiming that samsung now markets the SGS as 384mb of ram either. I have seen NO evidence of that, and if that's true, please show proof the SGS is being marketed as 384mb.

I agree that we do need more spare RAM to be available (especially in the froyo leaks, which may be betas anyway) and the currently-reserved RAM to be allocated dynamically when needed, so there is more ram available at other times. RAM allocation is cheap afterall.

You mean the link in this thread? Because those point to custom models. Just because one Xbox includes a HDD for instance, doesn't mean all models do. I'm still having serious trouble finding any evidence that Samsung are advertising the international unit as 384MB of RAM..

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bcam117:
Sigh

The galaxy s actual does have 512mb of RAM inside it. Out of that 512mb, 128mb is used by the gpu or something involving the hardware(I don't really know where so not going to pretend I do). Then out of the remaining 384mb some is used by the system. I say some cos different kernels use a different amount.

Like on damiangtos 2.2 kernel there was 360mb of ram free at one point.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] araje:
All, I know that galaxy doesnt have dedicated hard buttons for accept and cancel calls but I didnt think it will be so painful to use. If I am in any application, I need to press center button to come to home screen and then press the phone icon from dock and then with many clicks I finally call someone. Any way to change this. ?

I wish there was some substitute for that Green button in galaxy. I really miss hitting the green button in any application and getting to the phone app to start dialing

Best is if there could be a third party phone app that we could use. Does anybody have it. Can someone suggest a few names.

Thanks for your help.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] araje:
No one ?

I really can't believe everybody is happy with this painful procedure of calling someone. Most of the times when I center press, and click on phone on the doc, it goes to call history. So i again have to click one tab and then start dialing. Too much of work.

To make it worse, I haven't yet found a good way of customizing my bluetooth button to launch a voice dialer. It just simply calls the last person I called - thats it.

Atleast is there a way that you know to customise the bluetooth button to start Vlingo or something like that.

This becomes a major painpoint while driving.

Anyone ! ?

Thanks.

I have an unbranded i9000 only which does not have a dedicated call button. The only way to access thee phone app is to hit the center vuitton and then access the phone icon on the dock.

True, I've spent hours and hours on the phone understanding and customizing it, but doing this calling process by left handing while driving is a problem. Say isn't my sat nav on and need to call someone while driving.So that means tapping center button, hitting phone icon, hitting keypad tab and then dialing the buttons.that's the problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ickyboo:
I too want a dedicated button. But for me its the end call button. It just takes a few secs to hang up but annoying as I need to wait for screen to wake up then unlag. And lots of time I just plan forget. Mind u I know I can use power as hang up but that also has other problems

How can I copy the system folder or copy the entire device without rooting it? I dont want to use superuser because it's a pain in the SSS to get off and something seems a bit strange about that.

BTW I have been sent a replacement device by Dell that's why I'm contemplating this :)

Hey guys,

I've got an anoying problem with vanillaroms. In this case cyanogenmod and open desire. I've got enough internal space left in both of them (35mb cyanogen, about 100mb open desire). After a time whether I browse the web or not I get the notification that my internal memory is ful. I cheched it and foud out that the browser cache has about 30 or 90 mb without webbrowsing! When I browse a bit (5 minutes) it grows to about 20mb. That can't be true can it?

What can I do to reduce the cache size or to stop it from growing?

Thank you for your answer samsamuel

I have looked up ae buttons and it seems a bit overkill for the purpose I need. (and costs money)

perhaps there is a way to assign a long-press of the send key by registry?

I am hoping to bind it to microsoft voice command.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
oh well in that case, create a link to the app you want to run, (find the app, press and hold the executable, choose create shortcut) then rename the link to

long_send.lnk

and put it in the windows folder. (only works for the send key)

That works as advertised.

You mean it is stuck on that screen? Try going into the recovery.

If this happened because you tried to flash another rom, just go into the recovery and restore the backup you made.

If you are on a stock recovery, I think there is something you can flash in the development section, something called passimg I think, try searching for that.

[Desire General] AdamG:
I would like to announce the joint development of the android kernel for the HTC Desire, both myself and richardtrip have joined up together to share knowledge and development on the android kernel source. At the moment we have forked the cm-kernel as we both use this for both our roms and our work will be based around this.

Why?

Both myself and Richard both have the same goals where the kernel is concerned and would like to keep the android kernel updated as much as possible.

Benefits?

With both of us working on the kernel development it means there will be an up to date copy of the android kernel source available for everybody in the Desire community.

Differences?

Just because OpenDesire and DeFroST are using the same kernel source it does not mean both our kernels will be the same, we each have our own individual .config tuned to our taste and needs.

Where?

All our work can be found here

Collaboration

We would like to invite any body else who has skills for kernel development to join the project, an ability to use git is also necessary.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this. Feel free to move it.

I am wondering how to remove some things that came with CM6 when I installed it. When I go to applications > manage applications I cannot delete anything other than the things I've installed. Here is a list of things that I want to delete.

Amazon mp3

The stock browser

Stock Camera

stock messaging

stock music player

Google Talk

Google Voice

All the wallpapers

Home screen tips

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=735255

*************** NOTE ***************

Removing some of these may cause instability/FC issues with your phone. Just fair warning.

***

After reading that thread; the files you need to delete are... (located in System/App)

com.amazon.mp3.apk

Browser.apk

Camera.apk

(Not sure about messaging - might be mms.apk)

music.apk

talk.apk

I'm not totally sure about the others.
[HTC Aria General] matt_b:
deleting mms.apk will remove your ability to receive texts. i know cause i tried to replace it with handcent at one point. removing music and amazon should be fine.
[HTC Aria General] Anthony1s:
Thanks for the replies. I'm gonna try to remove the Amazon mp3 and Music now. What do you think would happen if I move the apps to my SD card and then access and delete them from my computer? Does this run the same risk of instability issues? In theory, I should be able to back them up on my computer and restore them if things go wrong, agree?
[HTC Aria General] ioft:
Ya. You can back them up to your SD card or PC, whichever is easier.
[HTC Aria General] Anthony1s:
Here's what I did along with some instructions from attn1. (he's the best!) Maybe this information will be helpful to someone. I am running CM6 A012 on my phone.

I booted up the Ubuntu LiveCD that I used to root my phone.

Rebooted my phone into Clockwork Recovery... power & volume down > wait for system check > Recovery

Once in ClockWork Recovery I linked my phone via USB to my computer and clicked 'partitions menu' then 'mount /system'

I accessed the terminal in Ubuntu and I couldn't get permissions to access the phone's files

In terminal, attn1 had me type the following commands before I could access the app list.

1) echo $PATH

2) sudo su

3) cd /opt/android-sdk-linux_86/tools

4) ./adb kill-server

5) ./adb remount

After that, to list the apps type: ./adb shell ls -l /system/app

To remove apps type: ./adb shell rm /system/app/filename.apk

To check if they're removed type: ./adb shell ls /system/app/filename.apk

I removed Music.apk, com.amazon.mp3.apk, and Browser.apk. When trying to remove Gmail.apk, Ubuntu wouldn't let me do anything else. I am assuming that the LiveCD has a time limit on it for the trial version. I then unmounted my phone on ClockWork and the rebooted it. The apps that I removed are gone from my phone and everything related to them still works fine.

Here is a link I used to find out which .apk files were safe for removal. http://forum.sdx-developers.com/android-2-1/(list)-apk's-and-odex's-safenot-safe-to-delete/

I will do some more research and try to remove other .apk files in a couple hours. I didn't try the 'move to SD' method that I mentioned above and would still like someone's opinion on it.
[HTC Aria General] Anthony1s:
I forgot to mention. It's probably best to do a nandroid back up before doing all this. I didn't do one that time and will do it next time. I will also leave a list of everything I removed for future reference. If anyone else has a list, I would appreciate seeing that. This is my first time doing all this so I am constantly bugging attn1 for knowledge.

It didn't seem right to complain about AT&T bloatware, but still have to deal with the apps cyanogen installed.
[HTC Aria General] penpower:
Correct me if I am wrong. I did it this way and so far haven't found any issue YET. BTW, I didn't delete mms.apk though. Use Winrar (or other programs, not tested) to open cm6-liberty-A0xx-signed.zip. Navigate to system/app and then remove the apk files from there. Close winrar and install the modified cm6-liberty-Axxx-signed.zip like normal. It saves me a lot of time dealing with adb. :)
[HTC Aria General] Anthony1s:
You know, that's a much easier idea. Even testing by taking one .apk out at a time would be faster, I think. And my Winrar is expired and it still let's remove files! I would just have to remember to save a backup on the .zip before and after removing each .apk.
[HTC Aria General] attn1:
FYI there is no expiration on the Ubuntu LiveCD. If it stopped working for you, it was for some other reason.
[HTC Aria General] Anthony1s:
Thanks for correcting that attn1. I haven't tried to do anything further yet, but will after a nap. Does anyone know if you edit the ROM in Winrar, do you have to sign it or w/e?
[HTC Aria General] penpower:
When I modified both of N1 and Aria CM rom, I don't have to sign it again.
