SD card speed fix - Epic 4G General

The devs may already know about this, but I figured I would cross post so we can get this into the roms for the epic. Basically it is just changing the read ahead cache for the card, and it appears to be giving some people quite a boost.
[Script][CWM] SD Card reading speed fix

Damn do you live under a rock lol. There are all the flashables in q&a. Was posted in dev then got moved.

I got a new guitar amp a few weeks ago and haven't been on xda nearly as much.

Be sure to read through the whole thread in Q&A before you start flashing things. Some zips work with some roms and not with others.

Just wanted to say thanks

So, I've been a bit of a lurker but, I felt that I should post this. I've had a Droid 2 since August & decided to finally root it. Due to the many amazing guides out there, this process was easy & painless. I just wanted to say thanks to those people:
darkonion's One Click Root
brutalDROID's HOW TO ROOT Droid 2 - IN DEPTH TUTORIAL
pc747's Droid 2 hacking/rom install class
So, thank you again for making this process incredibly easy
You should have put this in the general section, not development. It's good to thank but do it in the correct place. Either the specific forums (thanks button) or in general.

I'm an idiot. I thought I posted this in the General Discussion section That's what I get for having too many tabs open. Is there any way that a mod could move this to the correct section?

Dude virus kingdom 6/23 and 7/23 are amazing, I was a cm7 guy for a long time but I needed a change no issues at all for me, just make sure you partition your card, and vr superwipe, I use amon ra 2.3 to partition, clockwork always worked for me but all the devs always say use amon, and I trust they're judgement. And to what the other guys said, read the op's you will find your answer, I haven't asked one question yet, but spent many hours reading and found what I was looking for, good luck.

SFR 1.2, still the king after all this time. Until official GB or 1.3 drops, I am staying with it. Need a phone with all of its functions working reliably, none of which current GB leaks provide. CM7 holds a lot of promise but until devs get everything working I will not use it as my daily driver.

I see you are using the XDA app. You would need to switch to Browser view and search there. Or you can scroll down the General and Q&A list since it has been asked at least 4 times in the last 2 weeks. Only you can decide what ROM is best for you. You will find people that love SRF 1.2 and people who had problems with it. The same goes for any ROM because every phone is different. You won't find an answer here. You will need to go to Development and read the threads under each ROM and make your own decision. A lot of developers left XDA for various reasons, some just upgraded their phone so there is not a lot of development going on for EC05 and GB is still just a leak with no source for ROM, only kernel. That leaves only a few ROMs left and everyone wil tell you the one they are using is the best. I went to Gingerbread leaks right in the beginning and never looked back.
I'd like know this also.
I personally dont like theme of SRF1.2
and right now, themes that I like doesnt work well with SRF1.2.
I am wondering if there is stock CM7 like super stable rom for froyo?
Currently, I am tired of instable GB roms. That made me use phone less.
Is there froyo custom rom with good themes (or stockish theme)?

If themeing is your only thing then flash a prerooted stock ROM like ReRFS and then flash your themes. Super stable stock.

I used to browse the General and Q&A threads to find my own answers to start rooting long before I registered and could post at all. Later I registered myself, and used my gained knowledge to answer questions for other people in these threads.
But now, all one can find is the same repeated questions from lazy users that won't even put the slightest effort in. And none are so irritating as the "Best Rom?" threads and half of them are "for a friends phone."
Oh well, I think I'm done with the General and Q&A threads. The spirit of rooting has run dry here.

Random FTW! (Great roms btw dude.)
I've had the most success with EC05Plus from chris41g and DRockstar's Clean Kernel. Nothing else, other than stock, works well for me.

Forum suggestion

So every day it seems we have new threads about rooting instructions or basic issues that seem to get fixed over and over. Would it be better to have a section called 'back to basics' or something to try and group those together and chuck the stickies in there. I know ultimately if everyone just used the search tool there would be no problem. But I just thought it might help to clean up the forums a bit as it feels this forum has doubled in size since the sgs2 was released.

[Q] First steps with a new Nexus 7

So, finally my nexus 7 will be delivered on Tuesday. I'm neither new to android, nor to the world of nexus (Nexus S), but I don't have any experience with this piece of hardware. My first step will be rooting it, but are there any must-do things? Like on Nexus S Voodoo, NStools, etc. I know, there is no voodoo sound for nexus 7 (sigh...). I consider myself a poweruser, flashing, adb won't frighten me, so pretty much every customization is interesting for me which can give me even better user experience.
Thanks, and I'm very excited to be part of the n7 community!
Recommend app is pimp my ROM, also Nova Launcher by far and away better than stock

Spend some time reading and searching, start with the stickies. Post to an existing related thread rather than start a new one for the same thing. :good:
Might I suggest a ROM? I have had my N7 since July 20 and this is the best I have found.
It has KingBeatZ and flash built in.
Enjoy your new device.

I'm using Nova since its beta version, wouldn't use anything else.
When I read 'pimp my rom', i thought you were joking, never even heard of it, but most definitely will try on my Nexus S before the n7 arrives.

New to Nexus 7, not xda, but thanks anyway, i guess.

Seems interesting, I'm sure that stock ROM won't stay for long, first to try will be this!

I suggest twrp as a recovery
I run xylon ROM, Franco kernel, I flash xlouder Beats mod, I use eclipse inverted gapps and run a slim set up.
Runs mint. Enjoy!

I don't understand why does it annoy You. I was looking for some advice to have a nice and easy start with the n7, wasn't posting stupid things to the development section. I thought general section is a good place for it, to spare me few hours of reading, if anyone cares to answer at all. I already got some nice suggestion how to start, and thank you for that.
If this thread hurts anyone in any way, let it closed or moved by a moderator.
Not one nexus s general threads were opened only to say farewell, when they sell their phones to get an other one, i don't see how is my thread any worse than those.
Look at using wugfresh toolkit 1.6.2, its well explained, can view it on YouTube. That will root, unlock and install a great very easy to use recovery image twrp. just a matter of flashing roms/kernels from recovery, easy peasy. Don't forget to take nandroid backups, titaniuim backup for apps backups is the best by far.
Take a look at the following to greatly enhance sound (which is dodgy with stock)

Right there is the problem. No one is paid to be here and no one is here to "spare you a few hours of reading." This is a self-service forum, not a help desk. Drop the entitlement attitude and do your own work. Most everything you need to know is in here, and if it isn't THEN ask. Is that too hard to understand? It's not whether the thread "hurts anyone in any way," it's about not clogging the forum with threads that can be answered by you doing a little work on your own. You said you weren't a noob, so you should know that this is how XDA operates.

I will stop here, and won't answer to that, or it'll never end.
Some did actually help, others shouldn't waste their time answering me. I was politely asking for suggestions, because it's worked that way on nexus s threads. Someone had a question, others answered, even if it was about rooting or flashing, which has been covered million times. If there was a thread about the same problem, we posted the link to there, he got help, moderators closed the thread. I searched and didn't find the right thread to ask my Q, so I opened one. I didn't mean any trouble, and also some people actually answered. I was excited to get my n7, and wanted to know more about it, now I'm discouraged.
R: [Q] First steps with a new Nexus 7
Try multirom! The best n7 development! With it you can use as much ROM as you want, plus linux!
