Google could probably help you better than I could, I only have a pc
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flippingout:
Thank you. That definitely got me further in the process. One more question if you have the patience for a noob...

Unfortunately, now I am getting the following error once I paste the text from the txt file into CMD:

"the system cannot find message text for message number 0x2331 in the message file for Application"

Any ideas?

If you used the fast root then you need to chmod your shell, some themes come with guides on how to do this.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] leo537:
men sorry but im new in this i cant find the root folder

unfortunatly you have lost me as to what you are trying to do, is english your native language? if not try posting the help you need in your native language.
[Droid 2 General] primarilydna:
Whats up people... sorry for being a noob.. I was debating whether to get a droid 2 or an x. The droid 2 is imo great (size and keyboard) except for the camera 5mp which is disappointing no HD recording. So is it possible that the droid is capable of getting an update (htc incredible) or a tweak/hack(Nexus One) to make it 720p?

Or is it hardware issues making it impossible to go 720p and stay at 420p..
[Droid 2 General] ljbaumer:
camera

i am not sure about the 720p recording but I compared the same photo with a droid incredible (8mp) and a droid x and the droid 2 looked the best even though it is just 5mp. It just looked like it reproduced the real colors better than the other 2 phones.

I would say that the video quality is not excellent on the droid 2 but it is not bad at all.

But like I said earlier is that the camera is amazing!
[Droid 2 General] primarilydna:
hmm......... will probably get a droid 2 since the droid x is out of stock. grr .. Thanks for the camera info
[Droid 2 General] bizzshow26:
im willing to bet it will be a simple hack to enable it. It already has all the needed parts to complete the task
[Droid 2 General] 640k:
you could adjust the settings in the build.prop file on the D1 to change the codec and framerate, but resolution was pretty much locked, and anything outside of its capabilities caused the app not to work properly.

i'd think if you have root, all you need to do is make similar changes to the file and voila.
[Droid 2 General] joeld82:
I would love to know if this is actually possible. Please someone make this happen!
[Droid 2 General] bbianchi:
Now that it's confirmed the milestone 2 will, it's just a matter of time.
[Droid 2 General] jerseyh22accord:
this

just gotta wait for a milestone 2 system dump
[Droid 2 General] Bfwissil:
To be honest, the D2's slide-out keyboard is kind of like tits on a bull. The on-screen keyboard, after you master Swype, is better in every way. The only time I use the physical keyboard is when I don't want the virtual keyboard taking up space on the screen, but I still need to type something. And that's a pretty minor complaint that I could easily get over. Especially if it halved the thickness and weight of my phone.
[Droid 2 General] 640k:
what does that have to do with HD recording capabilities? your personal opinion is unrelated to the context of the thread.
[Droid 2 General] karnovaran:
+2. (Love the board...)

Anyway, it's all kernel based. We may get it, may not.. but I suspect most D2 users couldn't give less of a f#ck.
[Droid 2 General] MacaronyMax:
The Milestone 2 will get it out of the box and as far as im aware they're the same spec so it will hopefully get it in an update for you soon :p

[Droid 2 General] moto_militant:
I mostly agree. I wanted other phones far more, but the physical keyboard drew me to the 2, and now that I've gotten Swype down (really, could it be much easier? It picked up 'schedule' and 'assessment' the first time I tried them, the first hour I used Swype, I was shocked) I only use the real keyboard for user/pass or terminals and the like. I've only had the phone 3 days but I'm actually considering swapping it for an Incredible (faster, more hackable, if I understand correctly) or even the X. But I'm lazy so I won't...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dollfacedboyfriend:
Hi, I want to got a windows tool works on ubuntu 9.10. It's used to communicate with the modem of my android phone. So I decided to use it via wine. But the tool just said it can't find usb port. What should I do? BTW, my android phone start up with two modes. When connector was plugged in, just the modem was power on, so it was detected to be a usb-serial device on windows. And if power on the phone, it was detected to be usb device on windows. Any ideas to support these two modes on ubuntu via wine?

Thanks a lot!

[Android Software Development] TheAirplane:
Hi there!

I've been thinking of an idea that could be cool if it works in the real world.

The idea is that you install an app on your android phone, and one on your Win/Mac computer.

And these two applications would then work together through Bluetooth.

Scenario:

I'm sitting and working with my computer at a coffee shop, having music in my ear and concentrated on my computer. I neither hear or feel that the phone is vibrating or giving a way a noise that it has gotten a text message or a call.

The application on the computer would then sense when your phone is getting a text message or a voice call and give off a notification that you just gotten any of these.

Or if plausible, be able to answer your text message or call through the computer.

Would this idea be workable in the real world?

Thanks!
[Captivate Accessories] djb703:
I'm trying to decide if i should go for space, or speed.

For those of you that bought 32gb cards, are they class2? and if so do apps and such run off it fine, playing movies?

Class 6 is much more fast, and a class6 16gb card is still half the price as a class 2 32gb card.

Just looking for guidance here, do we need more then class2 for our phones.

Plan on putting movies and apps and stuff on the card.
[Captivate Accessories] Archpope:
I have a 16GB class 2 card in my Cappy, and I can play 720p video off it without a single stutter, and I never did install the lagfix, so class 2 SHOULD be fast enough, depending on what you want to do with it.

But right now, the cost of the 32GB cards is, I think, prohibitive. It costs > 3x what I can get a 16GB card for, and thus far, I have not filled my card yet.
[Captivate Accessories] Kenshin2B:
I would go with a faster speed for the bigger size card, class 2 would be too slow if you are read/write onto it constantly; For the best bang of your buck, the Polaroid 16GB microSD (made in Japan by PNY) from Frys is going for under $20 (after rebate); Even though it is labeled as a Class 2 card, but under most SD benchmark app, it is detected as a Class 4 card (4.5 MB/s Write/15 MB/s Read under the 300MB file R/W test in SD Card Speed Test)
[Captivate Accessories] eatkabab:
I would rather take a 2GB class 6 over a 32gb class 2. Class 2 is so unbelievably slow its unbearable. I use my phone as a usb drive very often. In my previous phone I had an 8gb class 2. It was so slow I thought the card was broken. So I RMAed it and the new one was the same. I realized that it just takes like 8min/gb to transfer to it. (and no its not faster in this phone)

Class 4 is standard, anything less is a waste of silicon and plastic.

Class 6 is about as fast as your average-quick USB thumb drive.

Yes class 2 is fast enough to run programs and play back video, but you'll spend a lifetime transferring those things.

Not worth it IMO. Get an 8gb class6 if cost is an issue. Also, don't go with any crappy random manufacturers. I find that a class 6 from 'craptasticMEM' is nowhere near the speeds it should be, and in fact usually slower than a clas 4 I have from kingston.
[Captivate Accessories] alphadog00:
The class rating has nothing to do with playback speed, only write speed. Copying files is faster, but how often are you loading up your SD card from your computer?

I am using class 2 and it is recording video just fine. I am not sure why above poster claims "class 4 is standard" - that would imply that class 2 is sub-standard. It is not, it just has slower write speed.

Keep in mind that if you lay out the big bucks for a class 6 32GB card today, it will half the price in a few months.

Now in my HD Camcorder it requires Class 6 to record 1080P - our phones have no such requirement, so anything above class 2 will help in initial data transfer from PC - after that you may never, ever see any benefit.
[Captivate Accessories] eatkabab:
Yes, sorry you're correct. Class 4 is standard in my gauge of memory cards/usb drives. All the classes "should" perform fine. The higher classes are obviously faster (with significant brand to brand variation). I find that they are faster at everything though. Not just write, but read as well. A class 6 card is as smooth as the internal memory in the captivate. A class 2 card is abysmal at everything (in my experience). I say class 4 is standard because class 2 is really bad...
[Captivate Accessories] alphadog00:
It could be my blindness - not physically, but the ignorance of not having a class 4 or 6 to compare to my class 2. My class 2 works fine for me, but if the class 6 stuff gets cheap I will head on over to it.
[Captivate Accessories] locsplitter:
My 32GB Class 2 reads/writes as smoothly as the internal card on the captivate as well.
[Captivate Accessories] justdrew:
lol no

internal is like class 10 i believe
[Captivate Accessories] eatkabab:
its not healthy to lie
[Captivate Accessories] solufein:
you guys are missing the fact that the class ratings are a MINIMUM rating. a lot of brands will perform MUCH faster than what they have printed on them. just saying something is class X is pretty much pointless. it's just a guideline that is being loosely followed. benchmark and move on
[Captivate Accessories] demize!:
If your running apps off of your card than believe me there is noticable difference between a class 2 and a class 6, and yes dont go for a no name.
[Captivate Accessories] Zeimus:
I don't believe you. It 100% fully depends on the card. Some class 2's are faster than class 6's. Ratings are lies.... benchmark ftw!
[Captivate Accessories] ozy944:
True that. Ive found significant differences by brand. However, there is definitely a noticeable difference between a class 2 and a class 6 card.

What you get depends on personal requirements more than anything else. Faster or more storage?
[Captivate General] captivate me:
I got a problem with my captivate. I was texting with a cousin and I accidentally deleted the thread. Right after that he sent me another message. I tried to go to it from the notifications thing and it took me to create a new message instead of starting a new thread. Now every time I send or receive a message I keep getting the notification for that weird message even though I clear it every time. I even get a notification for it when I open up any messages thread. Don't know what to do.
[Captivate General] Kagoshema:
are you using stock messaging or voice/handcent/chomp
[Captivate General] psychoace:
Try clearing your cache for the messaging app. If that doesn't work you might have to do a factory reset
[Captivate General] captivate me:
I'm using the stock messaging application. How do I clear the cache? I wanna try that first before master reset.
[Captivate General] chvybeatsford:
Or u can try powering off.
[Captivate General] captivate me:
I tried all the above. Maybe its a network issue?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Retro295:
I read the root guide yesterday and did everything right, but I am currently flashed to 1.4, the same one linked at the end of the tutorial thread. Most apps in Market aren't there (not compatible) and it looks older. What do I do to flash to a newer one? I was wanting to go to Donut SuperFast 1.6 but I read it requires Death SPL. Am I alright using Hard SPL?

If so, what do I do? Just wipe, then flash the 1.6 over the 1.4?

Thanks

Hi, I've seen a couple of lag fixes out there and they seem to be working well. But why is it lagging? Slow rom/internal memory card? Bad FAT32 filesystem as one of the fix developers said in a thread?

I am curious about this because if it's hardware problem then I might wait for a bit longer before upgrading my phone and Samsung may be already working on it, but if it's just software then I like to get a new phone now:D (from my good old E71)

thanks a lot!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] gTen:
While the 16gb hardware is slower then the 1gb rom used it is not why it is lagging..what is causing the lag is Samsung decided to use their proprietary RFS file system which either does not work well with Android in general or has too big of a footprint aka inefficient thus causing a bottleneck of the I/O
[Galaxy S I9000 General] qiu:
cheers, then what about the leaked 2.2 ROM? Has Samsung done any improvement in the I/O performance at all?

I really like this phone but the laggy issue is annoying.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] K0v4L:
Well looks like not all galaxy s are lagging. You can find many people on forum without this problem. I'm one of them. 55 apps, adw, no task killers and no lags at all.

I'm finally getting 0 lag too now I flashed to JM6 (I got lag on every other firmware). My Compass works for the first time too. I haven't tried GPS testing yet but my hopes are up. You may want to give JM6 a try. :cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bilboa1:
afaik recent firmwares (jh2 for ex) have a fixed RFS driver that doesnt lag up and fragments, whatever the real technical reason is why Rfs is slow on first generation firmwares, so the "not all get it" isn't really just "luck" stuff.

actually this regular "my phone dont do this ur just unlucky" is just some form of disinformation that is pretty much annoying.

you can check if you get 1500+ in quadrant, you don't have the issue (and IO tests go through quickly), otherwise, you do
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Seifer1975:
The stock galaxy s only gets about 800 in quadrant, but that score is only bettered by the nexus running froyo. It scored better than nexus on 2.1, desire and a gamut of other phones. But I do not read about these phone owners gripping about lag or need to go above 1500 in quadrant. Why?

Frankly, I have done the lag fix and my quadrant score is now 2137. But I do not feel any significant difference than when it was only 800. In other words, I dun feel that the phone was slow before the fix.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] qiu:
thanks everyone, I've got to say this is the most helpful forum I've ever been to. :D

gonna call Three for a upgrade offer
[Galaxy S I9000 General] andrewluecke:
Umm.. Don't take Quadrant for gospel. You could dump most of the OS on RAMdisk and you'll get awesome scores. We need a few test cases to ACCURATELY demonstrate the problem reliably, because quadrant only tests a few cases...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lexcyn:
After installing the lag fix I noticed things were hanging more than normal. Un-installed it and things are fine again. Not sure if it was just something I had installed or what, but my phone still feels as 'fast' as after the fix.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
yay!!!!!!!! i found my very first lag today :D:p

i had running media player over BT, GPS copilot, GPS mytracks, video Fring, and got the super mario running in the live wall paper

everything was able to funtion properly with some delay of course, with the exception of mytracks and media player

i'll try to reproduce the problem and see if i can pinpoint which of the 2 program is causing the lag (mytrack vs samsung media player)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kgk888:
Quadrant scores really have **** to do with everyday performance for the majority of people. You can post up 2300 in Quadrant and still experience lag during normal use. Think of it like 3DMark vs. Actual game performance on a PC.

Every phone is susceptible to the lag problem as every galaxy s uses Samsung's proprietary rfs format. Also, Crapwiz is part of the problem. The sooner Samsung and other manufacturers get their heads out of their asses and offer their products with stock android, the better. Give people the option of using Sense or Crapwiz but dont force it on them.

It speaks volumes to the quality of Samsung programmers when Launcher Pro is smoother while running on top of Crapwiz than Crapwiz by itself. The sooner the ASOP ROM is finished, the sooner the phone becomes more pleasant to use by those of us who dont need shiny things, facebook/twatter and iphone ui clones waved constantly in front of us.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tr1n1r3dman:
Personally, i noticed slight lag.. very very slight lag or hanging when opening some apps for the first time.

However after upgrading to JM1, i haven't noticed that at all. Not saying it is solved. This has just been my experience.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] andrewluecke:
We don't know thats the cause.. Someone said the reason RFS was slow is that "it doesn't buffer stuff" before.. But never seen confirmation. So anyone have actual proof its RFS?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mib1800:
I was on the stock firmware DJF4 and this has lots of lag. I have about 200+ apps installed and it usually takes a long time to boot up (esp Appdrawer). And after using awhile with it, even opening phone/messaging/contact lags 2-5 secs.

I upgraded to the official DJG4 yesterday and now the phone performs much better and battery life has improved (i.e. the standby time increased 30-50%) with the same apps/configuration of the old firmware.

After 36 hours with the new firmware, I daresay the lag issue is now gone. The DJG4 firmware also comes with handy task manager. Free RAM now seldom goes below 60MB. I tested by opening 20-30 apps over and over and there is still no lag. And I dont even have a auto-kill task manager running.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] appelflap:
The i/o procedures definitely causes some lag, on any galaxy. It can be seen in the Quadrant test, but you can also test it in "real life". Try my SGS info app from the app forum and try setting back the default values. Ridiculous how the Galaxy S is performing with this procedure. The only thing the procedure does is to clean up a database table of 6 rows and fill them up again with the default settings. Really crazy. I think it is impossible to develop a full blown db app for this (otherwise awesome) device. :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bilboa1:
no proof but i don't really believe that, cause the phone is fast after a fresh flash

i think it's a fragmentation issue or a mix of issues involving fragmentation (no buffer might be "feeling ok" but not when its reading fragmented memory for example)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Seifer1975:
We are not saying that there is no lag at all, but rather it is very insignificant and does not bother us that much. Different ppl have different tolerance level. To me, out of 10 times, maybe I get 1-2 times where the app takes 3-5s to respond. That is perfectly fine with me, but could be a killer for somebody else.

But it is definitely not lagging like my previous Touch Pro2 where it takes at least 10s to open an app, EVERYTIME. Now, THAT is lag.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sunwee:
IMHO, the lags are a matter of perception. Coming from a Winmo (htc td2), this is my first android phone and in the beginning i was wondering what the fuss was all about, yes opening certain apps (messaging, or even the dialpad) sometimes delay 1 sec or so. Compare to Winmo, that was like greased lightning! In winmo, the spinning cursor is your best friend, you see it almost everytime you open an app or even move between menus. it's that slow.

however my perception changed when I had a chance to try out other android phones (desire and nexus), i cannot honestly say those were totally lag-free but compared to galaxy, it was a much smoother experience. for eg, changing wallpapers, live papers or even adding shortcuts (galaxy may take up to 30 secs if you have many apps)...it was significantly smoother on those 2 android phones.

i am not seeking a perfect phone, but if other android phones (with lesser hardware specs, mind you) can perform much smoother, then why not galaxy? surely there must be something wrong with the implementation somewhere! This is the crux of my complain...and not becoz i'm a picky bastard who is *****ing for a perfect phone.

i also don't agree with those who claims their phone is totally great, lag-free, gps perfect, run 100 apps concurrently without skipping a beat etc etc and then tells off others who didn't perceive their phone to be performing similarly. You may view 1 sec delays as normal, 10m gps positionings as the pinacle of perfection..but others may not. especially those who had experienced lesser specs and older phones which performs better than the sgs in certain aspects.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] andrewluecke:
It's flash memory, so fragmentation is less expensive then random access on a spinning platter. Furthermore, you'd have to eat through the space a few times before things became fragmented much probably. Fragmentation is possible, but probably not likely to be the biggest issue (I'm guessing though). Furthermore, people are claiming EXT2 fixes things, and that wasn't as fragment resistant as people acted (I looked it up, and could never actually find an original source for that claim)..

Some filesystems for instance prioritise reading over writing, and if you change the same section of the disk, some also will never commit the first change. There are a lot of things you can do to speed up I/O operations, and it's possible that RFS doesn't support them, or that many of these features are still disabled.

It may simply be that the phone is churning out lots of logs rapidly. Anyway, it's all speculation, you might be right. But are you seriously writing that much data to SD/Nand?
