If you think this through you will come to the conclusion it cannot be done in realtime (yet). The amount of bandwidth and cpu power needed to move 300 images per second from camera through a compressor to a storage medium is not available. Also i don't think the camera itself is that fast.

O, I am so hoping i am wrong.

Yep, looks like it's an editing software.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] azzzz:
So I downloaded this app call H2testw.exe to test for legit sdcards but it also tells the read/write speed as well. I am testing my 8gb and 1gb cards. I set it to write a 300 mb files to the card and verify it.

Info about Android running on the two cards:

8gb = lags coming out of sleep, touch screen freezes, write~7.5 mb/s, read~12mb/s

1gb = no lags, no touch screen, write~4.3mb, read~13mb/s

I'm confused. The read speed is almost the same yet the 1gb microsd is more responsive running MDJ android compared to the 8gb microsd. Any thought?

UPDATE: Maybe this is what's causing the problem. Stolen from Engadget.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] vtruth08@yahoo.com:
They are probably different classes, plus it naturally takes longer with a bigger card because there's more files and more space to read and write
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] vtruth08@yahoo.com:
I get screen freezes with 8gb and up but rarely with new builds, haven't tried a card higher than class 6

Also I'm on radio 2.15
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] JonSolo:
Oddly enough, I have two 8gb cards, one class 4 the other class 6, and they hiccup more than my 16gb class 2.

Now that is weird.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] azzzz:
I'm lost myself...I'm thinking off just getting me a 4gb card and hope for the best...

Btw, guys...

all sd cards are not created equal. all sd cards of the same CLASS are not created equal.

Check out the ongoing drama with win7 phones with SD slots....

class measures throughput, what affects the SOD and related issues is random access speed, not throughput so much.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] rhacy:
It's just my 2 cents, but I've tested Class 2, 4, and 6 MicroSDHC cards and found very little noticeable difference once Android is fully booted up and running on the HD2. Moreover, none of the cards create screen freezes or SOD issues or high battery drain problems here. That said, I have noticed that the actual boot time and file transfer speed (from the PC to the card) can be faster on average with quality higher class rated cards of the same size. Also, I've found that the larger the card size, the longer the android boot time, no matter the class. Guess that makes sense, as the system need to read more sectors with larger size cards. Please note that I've only tested Sandisk, Toshiba, TopRam and Samsung cards to date. What's kind of strange is that the Class 2 16 & 32GB Sandisk cards run just as well or slightly better for some reason than some of my higher class rated cards. Go figure...

As far as issues go, I recommend only using quality brand name cards, no ebay fakes or cheap no name brands. Also, I've had great luck formatting all my cards with SD Formatter v2.0 and v3.0, using the quick format mode with the standard 32kb cluster size.

Best to all,

R
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] azzzz:
Great info here. I think I will just order me a new card from a reputable brand. Maybe my card is just getting old. Maybe a 16gb from Amazon will do. They aren't too expensive nowaday. ~$26.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] distruct:
Does the Radio version effects the lag of the sd card? Or the kernel?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] azzzz:
No, not on the sd but radio does effect how the build will run, your phone calls, your battery.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] azzzz:
Could this be the reason why class don't matter on hd2 android? I mean even some class 4 & 6 have lag and sod problem. I pulled this bit from engadget. It's an article on wp7 and memory card issues.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] enneract:
Obviously.

Been saying this for a while, myself - I have experimented, and I get SOD every time with my 16gb class 6 card, but rarely with my class 2 8gb, and never ever (and, tbh, better responsiveness overall) with my 2gb NON-HC card
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] azzzz:
I hope so...my class 2 16gb will be here in a couple of days...i hope it's faster than my current 8gb class 4....

Update: my 16gb class 2 sandisk is here. Things have improved alot. Wake up is faster now with less lag, market download speed is faster now (10kb vs 100kb). Hopefully system performance will be better...

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hastarin:
I don't have data to spare to test things myself until next month, and have a fairly stable PPP setup anyway.

But I figured if someone wants to experiment the following might be worth a shot.

What I've done is attach a zip with 4 sample options files for pppd that attempt to address issues I've seen with pppd. Specifically the crash with memory issues due to compression, and pppd dying when disconnected and needing to be restarted (eg by LeTama's v0.3 wrapper). If you want to try these out I would suggest using them in conjunction with his wrapper as I'm unsure how other versions may work: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=824413

The 4 versions for testing are as follows:

option1

- Makes the buffer size used for compression as small as possible.

- Tries to make the connection persistant.

option2

- Disables compression.

- Tries to make the connection persistant.

option3

- Makes the buffer size used for compression as small as possible.

option4

- Disables compression.

To use them they will need to be copied to your /etc/ppp/ folder as "options" and you'll need to ensure it's readable.

If you don't know what I mean I suggest you don't bother trying this.

If you do know what you're doing then you can try experimenting with the different options and see if they make things better/worse.

option3 is probably the safest, option4 may be needed if things still crash due to memory issues with option3.

option1 would be the ideal, but I can't guarantee the persist option is possible.

If option1 or option3 prove to improve things and prevent the crash, then the values used could be slowly increased (to a max of 15) to see if crashes start happening again.

Anyway, just something else the more adventurous and tech savvy users out there with PPP issues can try.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] deviant749:
Can I copy these over via ADB push while Android is running, or do I need to put them in the Android root folder so they'll get copied into place on reboot?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] MAsterokki:
Well with Option 1 the data connections drops almost instantly, Option 2 is doing without drops for 10 min now, but it is too early to say if it's an improvement over the old options.

Does compression influence the connection speed? Option 2 works as fast as possible on HSDPA... Option 2 dropped after about 15 minutes when downloading from the market, but downloading from the market was much faster than before.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] shadiku:
Should we be copying it as "options" with no file extension or "options.smd"?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] MAsterokki:
Probably as options.smd, that's what I did and it seemed to have some effect...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] deviant749:
Now testing option3, will mess with it for the rest of the day and see what happens. At first glance, it seems a bit slow, but that's anecdotal at best.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] MAsterokki:
Seems like I drew my conclusion from Option 1 too early, after a reboot it works great, I have been downloading MDJ newest rom for 10 min now which resulted 20% of 170mb (from multiupload). No drops untill now, definitely a huge improvement over the old options.smd. Thanks alot Hastarin!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] imphoking:
question when i get to the ppp file in i see options.smd and a options.smd1 do i just add this new option to it or delete the old ones and replace with this one?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] noellenchris:
I would backup your original files first, although the orig options.smd is probably blank anyhow.

Replace the options.smd with the renamed options from hastarin.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] noellenchris:
Hastarin, do you happen to know the default options when we were using the default "blank" options.smd? Does it use compression etc. Thanks for your efforts!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hastarin:
The wrapper supplies nodetach, debug and something I can't recall atm (should be in IRC logs).

Compression will be used by pppd by default but I couldn't find information on what size buffer it uses by default.

Google pppd man page for more information.

You are right about options.smd being the safest option. Using options file may affect other things that use pppd if there are any.

With option 1 can you make sure you can switch between WiFi and data and back again? And that you can turn mobile data off and on? And perhaps airplane mode and back to be thorough?

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ala380:
Ok with option1 I started experiencing some data freeze again. It happened while downloading a large file and then again when I switched to wifi tethering. The freeze actually freezes my entire system and then my phone runs really really slow. It may be the build that I am using so I am going to try an older build that did not seem to have this problem. I will run option1 for a while again and then try the others.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] aussiebum:
Option 1 is no good - I think the persist option keeps 3g "connected" even though I'm getting timeouts, instead of dropping and reestablishing data connection.

Will test the other options once I upgrade to 0.4 ril wrapper and S4 mdeejay kernel.

EDIT: oh yeah, I noticed though the default options.smd is blank, when pppd is running it creates a options1.smd in /etc/ and it has the words "user dummy" in it?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fredulus:
been using option 1 data dropped regularly, added the new 0.4 wrapper by letema, still drops, replaced original options.smd in tandem with the new ril.wrapper data is great! So, i guess don't use the options.smd with new wrapper.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] letama:
Hi Hastarin,

I hope this thread will bring some good feedback on options.

Just a couple of things:

1) For now, "persist" is a bad idea. Currently, wrapper relies on pppd to die to try to re-establish call with ATD*99***1#

If data connection hangs, "persist" will keep pppd running and ATD won't be issued to re-connect. You should see problem when switching 2G/3G and back, you need an option or a pppd script to send the atd to the modem when required.

But even with this, I experimented this option to see if I could use it with a modified wrapper. Unfortunately, even if pppd persists, the network interface ppp0 doesn't, so it' won't do much good with disconnections. I'd love to keep the ppp0 persistent to keep applications happy and not reset data statistics, but I couldn't make it work.

2) you should try to experiment novj and novjccomp options, I often see problems in IP/DNS negociation with vj. usepeerdns could be interesting to experiment too to get dns from the connection instead of hardcoding it as we do most of the time. It requires playing with ip-up scripts to set them I think.

LeTama
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ala380:
Ok so I've tested all of the options fairly extensively and...truth be told I'm not seeing much improvement with any of them. Now that being said I did switch over to the .4 wrapper so I don't know if that makes much of a difference with this. I am not sure that option 1 even does anything because it keeps overwriting my options.smd which has a size of 11 with an options.smd of a size 0 and in turn renames my options file to options.smd1.

I got a lot more data freezes which required a restart with using options 3 and 4 so they were a complete bust for me. Anyway just wanted to give a little update. I am going to spend a bit more time with options 1 and 2 and revert back to wrapper .3 to do further testing.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hastarin:
LeTama just said Option 1 and 2 were a bad idea (due to the persist).

3 and 4 are intended to try and prevent a crash with pppd due to low memory, but they may also need other options. See the post by LeTama above.

Even if we can prevent the out of memory crash (via options/patches) we will still get pppd dropping out for other reasons, which is what LeTama's wrapper tries to deal with.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] aussiebum:
Maybe in your case, /etc/ppp/options.smd is getting overwritten with /system/etc/ppp/options.smd (which is probably the blank one)?

I've had no problems setting /etc/ppp/options.smd and having the changes being persistent across reboots (currently testing the novj option as suggested by letama).

/etc/ppp/options.smd1 gets created based on options.smd everytime pppd gets restarted, so no point editing that file.
