Can't rely on "Class" designation

Unfortunately, the SD Class designation isn't very useful in the real world. As it turns out, "Class" isn't a good way to determine if one card will perform faster than another. Here are a few things to consider.

1: Class designation is for sequential read/write minimum.

2: The size in GB also affect speed, typically the smaller the faster.

A typical 2 GB SD card is faster than the same class 4 GB card.

3: There are many lower class cards that perform at faster than labeled speeds.

4: mSD Card controllers make a difference, Sandisk has worked best for me.

5: The devices mSD interface will also have an affect on speed. If the device peaks at a speed slower than the card, that's the maximum speed you can achieve.

From my observations/use, it seems Random 512K card speeds tell the story. If you can find a card with better than 2MB/s 512k random write speeds, it should work fine for Android. At least this was my experience with a Nook Color booting off of the SD card, Nookie Froyo.

I tried Wintec 16 GB Class 10 no dice.

Patriot 16 GB Class 4 no dice.

Lexar 8 GB Class 6, this worked, better than 2MB/s on 512k random

Sandisk 16 GB Class 4 this worked, better than 2MB/s on 512k random.

The other cards would crash and give force closed errors. Test where done using CrystalDiskMark 3.0.

I bought Kingston MicroSD 8GB and didnt worked. As someone wrote, watch out for Kingston.

Now i have Sundisk 8GB and everything is fine.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] aloy99:
I think a Sony Ericsson staff said that the X10 can only support up to Class 4, any higher will still work, but there will not be any further speed boost. To do with our mSD interface, I guess.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] charos:
Got a class 4 card. I was wondering if class 6,8,etc. will make a difference with access times. I don't care about write speeds and I think reading speed doesn't make a difference for anything above class 2. But are there cards with better access timings or just the read/write speed is changing?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] koalaii:
Well, if you read the second message from this thread for the X10, it seems the speed class has no effect :

I'm having a class 10 sd card. Before that I was using a class 2 sd card of 4 gigs.

The speed difference is visible when you are installing applications on your sdcard.

It gave me a pretty good performance boost for loading them and also the overall system became more fluently when having many applications installed.

How I have limited money and the price diference is so big, one Micro SD Sandisk 16 Gb Class 4 ($19) is enough for dualboot, music and apps?

Edit: Or worth more one Micro SD Transcend 16 Gb Class 6 ($39)?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] obsidian_eclipse:
Only problem is widgets don't work if they are associated with the sd card instead of the phone storage. Also, some shortcuts don't show up on your homescreen, instead you get a picture of an sd-card.

I settled for a class 4, unless your heaping tons of hd-video back and forth there's not much difference in the burst speed when the phone reads small apps.

Hello all,

I am an N900 user, but got fed up with Nokia's attitude, so I'm looking in buying a Dell streak.

The feature I used the most, was internet radio.

Is there an Android app which supports adding your own stream URL?

I'd like to listen to AAC+, WMA, and MP3 streams.

Thanks in advance for your replies :)

[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] smokku:
You are confusing "receiver" with "transmitter".

Receiver allows you to listen to radio - this one Streak has.

Transmitter allows you to broadcast radio - this one Streak does not have.

I was just wondering what some people are doing different than me setup-wise on their phones.

I currently have the latest bionix fusion, jac xmod kernel oc'd to 1.2ghz with voodoo. The phone is definitely smoother than stock, but there's still the occasional slight hesitation on what seems like the simplest tasks. I wouldn't be disappointed in the least if the phone stayed this way, but I'm curious if there's some step I'm missing.

Now about quadrant... I've noticed people claiming way over 2,000 quadrant scores. The highest I've gotten was 1960, and this was when I'd just odin'd back to stock, flashed the jac xmod kernel, voodoo and 1.2ghz on an otherwise stock touchwiz. On fusion, I'm seeing just slightly lower..closer to 1900. What gives? I haven't added any apps or widgets, killed all tasks, etc.

Any insight would be appreciated.

Hi,

ROM version 1.66.479.2 WWE. HTC support said that this is the default in WM 6.5. BTW in WM 6.0 for instance there was no such a problem.

So I been running the clean rom for about two weeks now.. No issues in the least except I would like access to a fee vzw apps.. Namely need for speed shift and vcast videos both are installed but nfs will not open or show an icon.. Vcast videos I download from market but gives me a cannot connect error and closes..

Im hoping jt or anyone else can answer this thread.. I've installed about 50 or so apps since my last non jt nandroid back up so...

If there is no answer I suppose I should just odin back to stock and reroot and go the titanium freeze method?

Thanks for any answers

Is be interested to know too, main reason ive been reluctant to flash a rom is that playing NFS gets me through bad days...
[Fascinate General] vecchioni27:
Ok, I have a Samsung Fascinate.

Rooted, CWM, ROM Manager, Root Explorer, Titanium Backup, SetCPU, ASTRO, JT 1000 voodoo kernel with animation.

Ok the problem is and I am almost certain that what caused it is flashing JT's 1000 kernel over top the original 0.2 JT voodoo kernel. However I had read in the forums that people have done this with no problem and I believe in the install thread it says you CAN do it with indeed no problems. However soon after doing the flash everything was working great and I took a couple pictures at dinner which is how I know it was working. Later last night I went to take another picture while out and it wouldn't let me because the SD card wasn't being detected.

I have a sd card reader but not with me and won't until I get home later tonight but I figured maybe until then I can get some help to how to fix it for when I do get home.

I have took a 8gb mini sd from my girlfriends HTC Eris and put it in just to see if it would read which it does perfectly fine. However you plug my 16gb back into the phone and it doesn't even recognize plugging it into the phone.

Any ideas?
[Fascinate General] vecchioni27:

[Fascinate General] Copperhed:
Sounds like your sd card is corrupted. Did you try the card in another phone? Try to reformat the card.

sent from my 1.2ghz voodoo fascinate
[Fascinate General] vecchioni27:
the back up that I made and all, wouldn't that be on the sd card though?

I would think trying to save the card would be a better choice at first eh?
[Fascinate General] vecchioni27:
anyone else?
[Fascinate General] Daswolven:
If the card works in another device, then I would wonder if the problem could be voodoo specific, such as the 0 internal memory issue. As far as I know, the only fix for that is the complete voodoo removal process, and a wipe in both stock recovery and cwm.
[Fascinate General] vecchioni27:
I tried to put the card into my sd card reader on the computer and it wont read it...assuming its a bad card. When its in the phone the sd card reader slot heats up too a massive HOT temp really quick within second and doesn't do anything. I guess I am gonna unroot using another sd card and take the phone to verizon and be like wtf....
[Fascinate General] vecchioni27:
I un-rooted and am gonna take the phone to the verizon store.

I plugged a 1GB from my old phone into the sd card slot and re-flashed CWM to see if I just removed the kernel's if maybe that would fix the sd card but I am almost positive its the sd card that is fried somehow...But it put the phone back to stock except it was rooted...not sure how that happened but i guess everything was on the sd card that I had done???

So confused but basically I am just gonna goto the store get a new card when they realize mine is bad and then re-do everything...Just never flashing a kernel on top of another one again whether people say its safe or not!
[Fascinate General] Daswolven:
I can assure you that had nothing to do with your card. Sometimes you get a bad lot. I order about one a month for various things, and have had to RMA here and there. I swapped the one my phone adopted with for an 8gb class 10 anyway, because the stock are class 2.
[Fascinate General] vecchioni27:
I am a bit confused...it sounds like you said it had nothing to do with the card but then went on to say how you RMAed a few here and there and such...lol
[Fascinate General] Daswolven:
Lol. I mean to say the kernel flashing cannot cause the sd card to fail. The card was probably bad to begin with. A bogus card will simply fail, sometimes after functioning fine for awhile.
[Fascinate General] vecchioni27:
oh ok, makes sense now...however a bad sd card pretty much screws me over because that is what held everything on it including the kernel and such along with all my apps?
[Fascinate General] Daswolven:
No. the install file for the kernel, but that installs it on the phone. Apps are stored on the internal memory, not the sd card. Pretty much, it just holds your music, pictures, application data in some instances (not the app itself), and any files you need to flash.
[Fascinate General] vecchioni27:
So when I get my new sd card tomorrow and load launcher pro back onto the phone, my apps should still be on the phone??

what if I can't even download launcher pro due to this problem of it not letting me download an app because it says I don't have enough internal memory available...
[Fascinate General] Daswolven:
Whoa.

Now that problem is the internal memory issue, not the external sd card. That is voodoo related, and the post about completely removing voodoo addresses it. I ran into that once, and it took about soften minutes to fix following those instructions.
[Fascinate General] nemesis2all:
If its internal and not your sdcard here is your solution.

[Vibrant General] joe.kerwin:
So after receiving my replacement vibrant i've decided to simply root and use some of the apps i used to like. Assuming i don't end up breaking under pressure and flashing a ROM, will things such as morphs and changing system apps not allow an OTA to successfully flash and boot? I did apply a black bar mod with an accurate battery but other than that i've done nothing but app related activities that require root. So, say when the official 2.2 comes out, would i have to revert my framework to stock as well before accepting the update? Like I said, currently I remain on stock JI6 with the stock kernel.
[Vibrant General] metalfan78:
I think you need to be completely stock, no mods, for an ota to take. If not you'll most likely brick

[Vibrant General] blackerwater:
My phone went to stock . Booted up with stock ji6 with ji6 kernel . I had to reroot even though my super user app was still there and reapply mods just like when you odin a stock rom . The only difference was my apps stayed in system/app and system/app-private and carried over with the update.

Hmm, I was just basing my comment on all the threads saying there were modded and ended up brickin...i havent even got the update yet so I dont know for sure
[Vibrant General] blackerwater:
The ones that bricked were probably running voodo . That changes things... So if your running stock jfd and a voodo kernel your most likely to brick. But odin will save you.

Pulled battery and rebooted. Booted fine to home screen.

Set everything up, and then turned off wifi. Data connection was working.. but took forever to sync google accounts, and would not DL from market. Tried again with wifi. Same deal. Took forever (like 10 minutes) just to sync google accounts. Took another 10 minutes just to DL root explorer.
