I got my replacement card last night. Infonec was great about the RMA. Only reason it took so long was I wasn't able to go myself so I finally just asked someone to drop by for me.

I haven't installed the thing yet. I plan to later today or tonight.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] hurrakan:
If you are going to benchmark please include 4k random write as that is the most important thing. Many of the higher class cards have a pathetic 4K random write (1 IOps), which makes them not work properly in phones.

Use Crystal Disk or ATTO to benchmark.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] hurrakan:
I don't think an SD card would be fast enough for ReadyBoost. A decent USB stick will give read/write speeds of about 33MBps.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] rcummings100:
Did you pricematch it? That card's EXPENSIVE!!!

shopbot.ca shows it's available elsewhere for $86

http://www.shopbot.ca/m/?m=LSDMI32GBSBNAR

You should take the receipt to a bestbuy store and get them to price match it for you. I think you have 30 days from time of purchase.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] rcummings100:
I've been using class 10 SDHC cards for a long time in laptops for readyboost. This was the first one I've seen that didn't like it. I was replacing a 4GB card in this same machine that worked flawlessly.

From what research i did online, it seems there's a problem with readyboost and specfically 32GB sdhc cards. They're fast enough but windows reports otherwise.

I bypassed the speed check and all is well. The system is working much better with 32GB of readyboost instead of a paltry 4!

I'll do some benchmarks now and post them
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] rcummings100:
The 4K tests are failing on my SD cards, all of them. The time remaining keeps shooting up and up until it hits over a day. That's using ATTO and ASSSD

Going to try crytstal in a bit
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] knowthenazz:
Yes, I did price match it, plus I used a coupon code.

There are more than one retailer in Canada listing them for $90-95, but the problem is that they don't have stock, and that most likely, it's a special order with a 3-6 week wait.

There are only 2 retailers that I could find that has it in Canada. Tiger Direct and Best Buy.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] rcummings100:
I got my Patriot from infonec.com. They have stock. They had a bunch when I went to an actual store to exchange my defective card for a new one.

My 2nd card is working perfectly. I was able to ghost my old card to the new card, including the ext2 partition, without any issues (the original 32gb card wouldn't show up in ghost...should have been my first indication it was defective).
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] rcummings100:
I'm doing a titanium backup right now and MAN IS IT SLOW!! Just for the hell of it I stuck my old class 2 16gb card in and it zipped right along. There is something very wrong with these cards!

I'm thinking hurrakan was right.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] SuperDeform:
+1 for the op for creating this thread been looking around for a decent review of micro speeds
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] rcummings100:
OK, something else screwy: uploading to dropbox is faster than backing up to my sd 32gb card
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] knowthenazz:
What are your CrystalDisk Mark results for your new card?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] knowthenazz:
Thanks :)

I appreciate the kind words.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] PS4AndroidHacker:
That is completely wrong,I'm using a 16GB Class 2 SDHC from Kingston and I have no problem moving movies or music to it. I also download stuff right from Dolphin Browser on my Droid and it has no problem at all keeping up. Of course I do use SD Card Speed Boost,Apps2SD,the newest CM Kernal, and CyanogenMod 7.1 but it still does not make a difference what class type of SD you're using. The larger the class,the faster the read and write speed is,then boost it up with a speed booster.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Accessories] rcummings100:
All the class rating means is that's what the manufacturer guarantees the card will read/write at. Many cards actually work much much faster than that rating though. Most people luck out and have cards work faster anyway, but the cheaper and generic cards will often only work at their class rating.

That's also why even though class 10 is the highest in SDHC, you see different speed ratings, like "Ultra", or "Professional" that are advertised as working much faster than regular class 10 cards. Class 10 is the highest they go, but you can find cards that work 2 or 3 times faster than class 10. At the same time, with a class 10 card, you shouldn't get one that works SLOWER than class 10.

All you're paying for is the guaranteed minimum speeds, not the actual performance.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m00nshake:
Hello everyone... Just got my EVO today, its 004 hardware, researched and there was talk of new drivers not released by HTC to make the camera work. My question is simple, and I've searched, but the massive amount of threads here w/ Evo, I couldn't find an answer. Will the camera work with CM7 nightlies and hardware 004? Thanks for your response. ~m00n
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m00nshake:
Bump...

Can anyone help me out? I know for seasoned Evo users, this is a simple question, but I've searched and can not find a clear answer. Have the camera and wimax issues been resolved for the nightlies? Any help will be greatly appreciated...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrWicked1:
Yes for the camera
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m00nshake:
Thanks so much for the

reply. How about Wimax? Cheers. :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bwcorvus:
If you go to the CM 7 with WiMAX in my sig, it will work with hw0004. That being said DO NOT flash the extra kernel as it does not work on hw0004.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m00nshake:
Thanks for the info... I hit the 'Thanks' button for both of you for taking the time to answer my n00b question. Cheers =)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m00nshake:
When I follow the link for the CM7 w/ Wimax in your sig, the listed bugs seem that Wimax isn't stable unless plugged in. Have you found this to be an issue on your end or have you found a way around it?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bwcorvus:
Its still in alpha stages, so best thing i found is after the phone has been on a long time, i just reboot if 4g doesn't connect. Its random, some times it connects no problem, other times it requires the reboot. Thanks for the thanks.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosympathy:
This rom is actually my daily driver but with the Savaged.Zen kernal. I find no real faults other than when turning off wimax, to get 3G to work, I have to reboot my phone. Not really a big deal for me. Else wise WiMax has been very stable for me. That Kernal, i've been pulling 7 down and 1 up and my camera works just fine. You don't have to use the Kernal they say you have too. Just a heads up.

Oh ment to put that I myself am running a white evo with 0004 HW :D
[Nexus S General] ceo.mtcl:
I sold my iPhone 4 today and bought a brand new nexus s. I'm not new to android though, I used to own a nexus one before iPhone 4.

My question is that I want to install custom roms on it, but I might want to restore it back to original factory settings in case I want to return it to best buy. How can I backup my phone so that best buy would take the phone back without questions?

I saw a thread to root the phone without unlocking the bootloader. Is that what I should do? Any help is appreciated!
[Nexus S General] kenvan19:
Just root and do a nandroid backup. If you use rom manager to install the custom recovery you can just use it to so the backup.

Sent from my Onyx CM7 Google Nexus S!
[Nexus S General] peeturr:
Go to the Samsung nexus s android development section. Look for the thread that begins with Odin 1.81... bookmark that thread. That thread will help you flash completely back to stock. And always make sure you relock your bootloader.
[Nexus S General] peeturr:
The only advantage of not unlocking the bootloader is to avoid a full wipe of your internal storage such as pics, music etc. However custom roms or apps may have stability issues without an unlocked bootloader. No harm in unlocking the bootloader because you can always lock it again. Just make sure you back up any files you may want to keep.
[Nexus S General] distortedloop:
I agree that the only advantage to not unlocking the bootloader is to avoid a full wipe and loss of all data.

I'm curious if you can point to an example of any current existing ROM that displays issues because the bootloader is locked... if so, I need to add that information to the non-unlock method instructions.
[Nexus S General] peeturr:
Sorry I don't. I was just quoting one of the root guides in here. But then again there's always that IF. Now that I think about it, unlocking the bootloader is to be able to install root and a custom recovery. If you can do that without unlocking the bootloader then you should still be golden. Don't see why a rom or app would be dependent on the bootloader. Sorry for the confusion.
[Nexus S General] distortedloop:
Yeah, we've found no reason to HAVE-TO unlock it yet. Just to be clear, I wasn't challenging you, just looking for anything I might need to add to the guide on doing it without the unlock. I already have a caveat that it might be an issue for something, but don't know what something could be.

Anyways, if you're a fresh out of the box phone, no problems unlock method, since you have no data to lose in the wipe. For late-comers, the no unlock method spares them that data wipe. The beauty of it is that you can root and install titainium or other backup software without wiping the phone if you already have data on it, and then if needed you can always unlock it and re-root, and then restore your wiped data. Best of both worlds for some.
[Nexus S General] jamiemac1977:
Pretty much exactly what happened to me Distorted loop, Very thankfull for that non wipe root method, definately saved my ass as i had a good play with the phone before getting it to a PC for backup/rooting.

I am going to swap my device for another tommorrow to confirm if my reboot issue is even remotely hardware related. So i will have 30 mins with no nexus s ...s'gonna kill me as i love this lil thing (even with my calling problems).

Looking forward to a nice stable nexus, and then i'll try out some of the mods and roms (still on stock for now) :D
[Legend Android Development] paviol:
Hi, I have a problem, I am using YogenTouch ROM and on the begining I had a message preview (on the botom) on my lockscreen with a Contact picture (above the unlocker) . Now I only have the message preview below the unlocker.

Just to be clear, the contact on the screenshot below has a contact picture.

+ I also have Handcent SMS -- would that be the problem !?

any Ideas how I can get back to the original, so I can see a Contact picture ?

i rooted my motorola backflip with z4root and it worked but nothings new i checked my firmware and im still on 2.1 i wanted it rooted mainly for live wallpapers because motorola disabled it in the 2.1 update. but so far nothings new about my phone. i know its rooted because i can use apps that are for rooted phones only but am i doing something wrong or what
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] SpiderVenom:
In order to use live wallpaper you need to load a custom Rom 2.2 or higher
[HD2 General] phlashlite:
Installed BsBTweaks on my HTC HD2, but now ActiveSync won't connect to my phone. PC O/S is Win XP SP2. I'm running WinMo 6.5 and have the latest ROM for the device from my provider, version 3.14.531.1. I get the message: "Critical communication services have failed to start. Try resetting the mobile device, and then connect again." I haven't yet made any changes to the device using BsBTweaks, I only installed it. Have tried rebooting the phone to no avail. I have to use Disk Drive mode to get at the pictures on my SD card. Is there a way to get ActiveSync working again? I'd probably donate to the developers if this problem could get corrected and I can reasonably figure to keep and use BsBTweaks. Thanks.
[HD2 General] silverwind:
Have you tried to restart your PC and try different port?

Sometime this trick works;)
[HD2 General] phlashlite:
Restarted the PC - worked like a charm. Thanks a million. I can breathe again. :)

...And I just made a modest donation. Thanks very much.

Troubleshooting Sync Connection with Your Computer

You can often solve any temporary sync connection problems by disconnecting your phone from the sync cable, waiting a few seconds, and then reconnecting it. However, sometimes you may experience persistent problems related to your network connection (for example, your Internet connection). You may be unable to sync your phone while there is an active network connection on your computer, or the network connection may be cut when you connect your phone to your computer. If this happens, you can try switching to a serial USB connection for your phone:

1. On the Home screen, slide to the Settings tab.

2. Tap Menu > All Settings > Connections > USB to PC.

3. Clear the Enable faster data synchronization check box.

4. Tap Done.
[HTC Inspire 4G] cmstlist:
Just to be clear this is NOT a rooted ROM. This is pure stock AT&T Inspire 4G. It will not override Radio S-OFF, or SuperCID, or SIM unlock, but it *will* unroot and wipe your phone.

Sorry for the cross-post, but since XDA insisted on making separate forums for Inspire 4G versus Desire HD, you should probably know that there is already a RUU posted for Inspire 4G.

I got it from this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=917762

Note: I *do not* own an Ace/Desire HD/Inspire 4G. But I thought you might benefit from having this posted up here.

Please verify that the build and radio numbers match your device before you embark on any modding attempts. If so, then this RUU is your de-brick-it ticket to stock.

If you have flashed a higher version RUU and you don't already have S-OFF, and it thereby won't let you downgrade to this stock ROM, check out the downgrade thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=905003

but use this RUU instead.

STOCK ROM in ZIP FORMAT

Place this .zip file on the root of your SD card. Disable fast boot in settings > applications. Turn off your phone. Hold down the volume down button and the power button at the same time. The phone will reboot into hboot. It will load the ROM automatically. Follow the steps to flash the ROM.

[HTC Inspire 4G] mentalcase:
What speed issues? I'm seeing the same speeds as my iphone 4. You won't start seeing faster speeds until the backhaul is improved.

If this is the same ROM that came with it out of the box, I don't see why it'd make a difference.
[HTC Inspire 4G] harlenm:
The inspire stock has disabled hsupa, so upload speeds will max out at 400kbps.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mentalcase:
Ive been testing at 1400-1600 consistently. I was even testing before it was rooted.
[HTC Inspire 4G] harlenm:
A stock AT&T inspire getting upload speeds of 1400-1600? If that's true, you are the first person to report that.

Is this for sure the Stock Shipping ROM? Has anyone tried flashing back to stock?
[HTC Inspire 4G] cmstlist:
The build number matches what people reported as the shipping ROM on their Inspire 4G. If it weren't a signed stock ROM, the RUU wouldn't flash at all.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Monkeyfeng:
should I flash this rom instead of att1's rom???

Plus... what's RUU??
[HTC Inspire 4G] tpbklake:
RUU = ROM Update Utility. This is the official shipped ROM for the AT&T Inspire and will restore your phone to its original ROM complete with all of the AT&T bloatware. If you have rooted and S-OFF, you will lose root, but you will still have S-OFF.
[HTC Inspire 4G] cmstlist:
This ROM is strictly for getting your phone back to UNROOTED STOCK condition (except for S-OFF).

The revision of the stock radio (and the Gingerbread radio, and maybe some others) will change depending on what your ro.ril.hsxpa value is set to in build.prop. This value indicates the target data network. When this value is set to 1 (which gives you HSDPA), the letter in the radio will be H, when the value is set to 2 (HSDPA/HSUPA) the letter will be a U, and when it's set to 3 (????) the letter will be a P. When it's written like this "12.39.60.19_2" it includes all revisions
