[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adapt0r:
Ext4 file system make read/write operations at least twice faster compare to RFS. It allows for file size exceeding 2GB as well. Besides it has journaling capabilty.

All this greatly reduces lags and glitches especially for video and when switching tasks that involves read/write operations.

My experience with ext4 on Vibrant is very positive.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Technomancer:
RFS is fat16 or fat32 with a journal.

It is also proprietary to Samsung and no source code for it is released, so it is not very good for AOSP release. And in everyone's experience it performs like ****.

The RFS stack (probably storage.ko) also contains sector remapping/wear levelling module that implements stl on top of bml. So while it is easy to switch to extX on top of stl its gonna be much harder to implement it on top of raw mtd flash for .35 kernel on tab. The flash chip in Nexus S most likely has wear levelling built in. But on Tab it is done on software.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ptfdmedic:
That is not always true. The problem is that quadrant can be "tricked" into a higher score (EXT2, EXT3). However, ext4 is a true "lag fix" and thus the performance gain is real. There is a "real world" gain after converting to EXT4. The problem as I understand it with the Tabs right now is that we don't know if it is actually working. Give it time and we will see the same progress as we see in the Galaxy S phone.....

I recently Odin'd back my phone to stock DI18 about 2 weeks ago, but today I barely realized that the Asphalt demo is gone! All the other stock apps (nascar, sprint zone, ect) are there. My phone is rooted but won't let me install clockworkmod. Will missing this app still allow me to get ota updates? (and yes, I do plan on sticking to stock rom, I can't really afford to mess up my phone again).

[Windows Phone 7 General] z33dev33l:
We get that you don't like WP7, you come in here daily stating it for no reason that I can see. I certainly don't see it benefiting anyone or changing anyones minds. When I look in the android general section I don't see a bunch of WP7 fans in there posting about the (many) faults of the OS. What about Windows could possibly bring about so much hate except perhaps jealousy? I just don't see the reason why anyone wants to come in here over and over again more or less neglecting their own devices forum to bash on an OS most of them have never used. If you have a WP7 device and want to come bash it then whatever but really... no need for all this senseless hatred...
[Windows Phone 7 General] tkato:
Well, I like it :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] diego1985:
Because alot of the people you speak of are not android or apple fans yet. They are still weighing their options of which os and phone is better. And when a android or apple user tell them whats wrong and what features are missing. The wp7 pole jockers start to get their feelings hurt, because the phone will eventually have the updates but dont. Thats my 2 cents.
[Windows Phone 7 General] JamesAllen:
Fear

These people you speak of do not like MS for whatever personal reasons. The thought that something like WP7 might be successful irritates the heck out of them. They fear that MS will be successful and it drives them crazy, so they post hateful messages in hopes that someone, anyone, will agree with them and reinforce their hope that MS will fail. Childish, immature, unrealistic, misguided, and, quite frankly, kind of disturbing.
[Windows Phone 7 General] gerryjoson:
What "hate"?...... hate is a pretty strong word for an inanimate object, if your talking about the many shortcomings of WP7 that are constantly pointed out, so what, they need to be pointed out and *****ed about otherwise MS won't change them.

There's probably an element of teasing people because of funny threads like you started about how you've never been so impressed with an OS, with many silly words like "love" and "beautiful" used and how it's so much smoother than whatever, if having smooth swiping and scrolling is your total requirement for a mobile OS, don't get upset when others think it isn't.

Don't assume everybody who says anything negative about WP7 is an Android user, a lot of them are long time PPC/WM users and have probably lost more than you've gained with WP7, it's their right as a customer to bleat all they want, people can say WP7 is not a replacement for WM all they like, fact is, it's being marketed and sold as one by Microsoft.....and it ain't....not even close.

People that are getting all bitter and twisted over others negative comments, need to step back and accept that XDA is a public forum moderated by users trying to be impartial, and if you don't like it, my suggestion is to start your own WP7 enthusiasts forum where you can moderate all negativity to your hearts desire....maybe a yahoo group or something where you can vet users thoroughly before allowing them into your little happy world etc.

"Try it, before you criticize it", yet every post I've read in here where someone has, and then they are pointing out it's shortcomings, WP7 defenders start saying inane things like....you should have known, and.......go back to your beloved android, honestly, this forum is like reading a commentary of primary school life or something these days, it used to be great, now it seems like some sort of perverted amusement value where no one can accept that someone else has different wants or requirements, and start using ridiculous terms like jealousy...hate...love...beauty...trolls....fanboys on and on....pretty bizarre [if not amusing] reading considering handhelds are being discussed.

edit> Fear, there's another one.

Carry on.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FaisalNahian:
verdict is reached :rolleyes:
[Windows Phone 7 General] z33dev33l:
So essentially it should be like WM6.5 (a failed OS regardless of what the members here say) or bust because its made by a company who in the early 2000s wanted to put out a phone that had some computer functionality and havent changed it much since? I loved WM primarily because I COULD modify the UI to something beautiful and I could always update it with the latest version of some UI replacement and I could do all this but at the end of the day it's nice to have a phone that just works from the start without a stylus or lag or anything. After owning a veritable ton of smartphones I can honestly say that with the WP7 I dont feel that I need to mod it to make it amazing. Yeah, it lacks a few basic features but I think it more than makes up for it in the areas it excels. I understand that not everyones going to like it. Some people are concerned with physical customizations I've personally not seen a UI so smooth before so I dont need any physical changes. However, more often than not if someone posts a thread like "I want to get a WP7" or something like that trolls will flock to the thread and try and pull them to android. I mean its not a big deal for some but some of us cant stand fragmentation. It's annoying and its an issue you'd think they wouldve addressed prior to this. If people want WM 6.5 its there. For those of us who want something newer that actually has a chance in the smartphone world, WP7 is there.
[Windows Phone 7 General] gerryjoson:
Well, I'm not interested in getting into a pissing contest about mine does this and yours doesn't, you asked the question, why so much hate, and I was giving reasons I thought were probably relevant apart from the extremely popular Android users conspiracy theory.

I don't really understand why you started this thread when you think you already know the answer, what was it ever going to achieve for you apart from more negativity for something you like?

well.. i used to have iphone and i hate it, i changed to android, kinda better.. then now i have wp7.

WP7 is the best amoung all the OS. i just love it.

games are much better,

i can do office,

interface is easy and fast,

screen is hell big on my HD7,

BUT

games and apps are expensive like shiat!
[Windows Phone 7 General] arturobandini:
I am not hating WP7.

I own one for 2 months now and I just realize that it is not really a smartphone.

It is rather a phone for kids or for people who are not used to smartphones and need something very basic.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
Ok, name me another feature phone that has:

1. MS Office

2. Netflix streaming

3. slingbox

4. 3d games

5. exchange support

Just because it doesn't meet your needs, doesn't make it a featurephone.
[Windows Phone 7 General] arturobandini:
It indeed has some nice features, but as long it does not have:

- a file explorer,

- an easy way to manage Office files

- an easy way to send Office and pdf files

- USB drive

- Skydrive client on the phone

I don't find it business oriented enough
[Windows Phone 7 General] Niiceg:
I had Desire and Desire Z, so both Android smartphones, well first, I loved them, but that flashing game to get better Android sucks. And With each rom, official or not I got bugs. Well, now I have Omnia7 and it's really awesome. Music player, messaging, people hubs are super! It's a great OS which was created to get things done fast. Android is created to root, install roms and get ****ed up one day. Well, I hope that many other Android users will get bored with flashy thing and grow up one day. People, don't you have anything better to do, instead of flashing roms? And creating them? Company creates OS, and developers makes apps. And with android we have, that Google creates OS, which is **** and needs things like Sense and etc. to look not like cheap **** and then users, developers creates Roms. People, create apps not roms, if you want to create OS go and Create your own or join other companies.

So my opinion about WP7: very good Os, needs some updates to get some features that are lacking and more apps :))) Which will come eventually ;]
[Windows Phone 7 General] Niiceg:
Well, these features like explorer will come one day. And I realized that I don't need them. All my things like music and pictures are synced with zune, which is awesome. And because it's not Android I don't install ****s like Roms and etc, so file transfer is not needed for me :]
[Windows Phone 7 General] raven_raven:
Gimme a break. There is nothing bad in wanting to squash from your phone more than it gave you out of the box. Now you sound like some iPhone user

"Simply is simply better cause it's simply and I don't need nothing more". We spend hundrets of dollars to buy a capable phone, not a pretty device capable of doing things that prehistoric people did ;/.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
neither was iphone or android on first release. It will take time. I can't blame MS for taking this approach. Business users were not keeping winmo numbers up enough by themselves (along with the techies). So they are trying entertainment first with business features coming.

Nothing wrong with trying to get more out of your phone.

Something wrong with HAVING to install fixes right out of the box.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ohgood:
i'm not going to name the phone, but it's on another platform. i think you just labeled WP7 a featurephone, accidentally.

the post above mine mentions not needing a file browser. yesterday, in the middle of the woods, one of the guys wanted a copy of the 720p video i just shot of him blasting up a hill on a dirtbike. no network access, just bluetooth, wifi, and of course microsd cards.

question is, how would you do this on wp7 ?
[Windows Phone 7 General] hboos:
such a pointless thread...

a thread complaining about WP7 bashing??

you're just exacerbating the problem.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Niiceg:
Show one ROM of Android, that has no bugs. That hasn't got Smsm bug, notification bug and many others. Found it? No... Why you want to do smt to your phone more than you get out of the box? I don't get that, then buy other Os phone. All that customization ****ed up Android. And there are a LOT of launchers in market, you know why? Because Android out of the box is garbage. It's ugly
[Windows Phone 7 General] ronalgps:
Add an ability to have a wallpaper behind the tiles instead of the black or white background.

Real multitasking.

Oh and if they'd also fix the following:

No system-wide file manager

No Bluetooth file transfers

No USB mass storage mode

Limited third-party apps availability

No Flash or Silverlight support in the browser

Too dependent on Zune software for file management and syncing

No video calls

No custom ringtones

Music player lacks equalizer presets

DivX/XviD video support (automatic transcoding provided by Zune software)

No sign of free Bing maps Navigation so far

No internet tethering support

No memory card slot

New ringtones available only through the Marketplace

Swapping memory card requires hard reset; cards not readable by computer

I copy it from someone in the internet that are the thing to im needing in wp7

i was chating in msn in my wp7

and my friend with one Iphone ask me for a link

i just say pfff bla bla bla i jump with something else and go in my hd2 with android and ask wat do you say give me one moment ok check the link nothing :cool:
[Windows Phone 7 General] lqaddict:

This stupid little threads about how I love it and everyone else hate it are getting old.

[Windows Phone 7 General] ohgood:
sharing a file without cellular connectivity. -that- is why you need a filer, usb mass storage, bluetooth transfer, ftp, sftp, or a mix of all of them.

sometimes, you're in the woods or on the fringe of service, and just want to share a file. a txt file, a sms, a video (oh god!), a song (please don't start about pirating music, really), or anyting that can be digitized.

assuming that folks are evil and only going to steal music, movies, or apps is just backwards. it prevents innovation, and prevents information.

also... having shared a .pdf with other folks via bluetooth, with no connectivty cellular, i can attest to file sharing being a GOOD thing. how long does a 20Mb .pdf take to transfer on EDGE, between two devices ? on bluetooth or even wifi adhoc, it's pretty quick. and legal. and smart. :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] Niiceg:
Well I'm Windows 7 user, and WP7 user too. I was Android user. And if you love your super ****ty Android, why are u visiting this forum?
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
Games aren't really much better. Other platforms have more games and have the hardware capabilities for much better game development.

Every smartphone platform can do Office.

Meh. I can't really say any smartphone OS except maybe BBOS (< 5.0) and Symbian has "hard interfaces."

Android has a phone with a 5" screen, and there are 4.3" screens. 4.5" screens coming soon.

Windows Phone 7 app developers probably consist of many coming over from Windows Mobile. Those people were used to charging an arm and a leg for apps. It will take some time for them to get grounded down in reality, I think. Blackberry had the same issue, and to a lesser extent, WebOS as well.

There are some expensive Apps in the Android Marketplace, as well. Don't know much about Apple's App Store to say.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
We really don't know what's coming, so you can't say that.

What matters most to consumers and business users is what's there now.

I can get an XB360 and Stream Netflix, Zune, and play games, and it's much less expensive than a smartphone.

I really can't see myself watching a full movie on the go. I don't think I've ever even launched the Avatar movie on my Galaxy S Vibrant.

Short YouTubes, yes. Full length HD-quality movies. Sorry, you enjoy the crick in your neck after you finish. I'll do that on devices optimized for that type of stuff - televisions and HD-resolution computer monitors or laptops.
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
Things like file explorer are necessary to send multiple attachements through email and to perform Bluetooth file transfer Lol.

BASICS. Do you really lack any imagination or knowledge?
[Windows Phone 7 General] z33dev33l:
The same way the previous poster said he didnt use his phone for movies I dont use mine to run my office. If I send an email with an attatchment it's typically just a picture of my son. I don't live in 2004 so I dont really need bluetooth file transfer and I have never used it. It's not a lack of knowledge at all, I've built 11 roms for android devices, owned over 40 smartphones, and am building a sega saturn emulator for android just because. We all use our phones for different purposes. I basically use mine to text, call, reply to craigslist postings, game, listen to music, and watch movies. This phone, at least in my opinion, beats out any other OS in all those areas as far as I'm concerned. It's definitely not the best phone for business users right off the bat, they might add that functionality in but currently no, its not. For the average user though, it's perfect.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
See what I mean. You sound like a mad Mac user. You can't stand to hear other people views. Your OS is the best of the best.
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
That is why you don't get some complaints.

For me lack of normal, obvious file transfer is exactly like we were in 2004, not 2011. For the first time in my smartphone usage I can't share anything with anybody anymore. Just the email.

I use bluetooth/USB documents transfer very often. Disabling this is a big kick in the balls. The more I think of it, more I imagine someone was brainless there making such decisions.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Niiceg:
Well, I was Android lover for half year. I was huge fan. Long time ago I loved Nokia, with Symbian. Market evolves and you see everything how the platform evolves. Android failed, it had a huge potential, but it failed... All fragmentation, Roms and etc... You are poor man, because you love Android and visit WP7 forum. Have you used WP7 device?
[Windows Phone 7 General] raven_raven:
Let's straight things up. Android failed only in YOUR opinion, cause charts, statistics and milions of happy users says something different :).

WP7 is pretty young system. It can't be fragmentated in such short time, there is no developing at all. So there even can't be fragmentation/ROM problems.

We'll see what you'll say when your beloved device won't obtain upgrade in future, when custom ROMs will start to pop out, when you get annoyed by those time-consuming animtions, when you will want to send a photo to friend with old Nokia etc. :).

How's the local Bing! search near Kaunas?
[Windows Phone 7 General] arturobandini:
Exactly ! This is apparently the new Microsoft philosophy.

They lock down everything, and prevent you to do anything because they "presume" that you are going to steal videos or music.

This is probably why WP7 does not read AVI. It's unbelievable, but I'm sure it's the reason.

The problem is that Microsoft employ too many lawyers, and not enough engineers and marketing guys. Hopeless.
