Hi,
I recently installed CM7 on my phone using Rom Manager and am very happy with it.
I noticed that my SD card read and write speeds have become abysmal though.
Can someone tell me how to fix this? I noticed in Rom Manager under the SD card partition area it mentions something about changing write speeds.
Would that work? I do not really want to create a separate partition on my SD card at the moment but I would like to increase the file transfer process.
Thank you for the help
Known problem, best solution is to use a card reader.
I also get extremely slow read/write speeds on my SDcard when mounted via the phone. My dad's HTC desire running on leedroid ROM reads and writes like lightning compared to what im getting and we both have the exact brand, class and capacity SDcard. Formatting the sdcard didnt help, i happen to be on CM7 as well so i wonder if its a ROM related issue...

i am hoping maybe somebody can help me i searched the Q&A and i can't find an answer i am using a 4gb class 6 sd card i partion the sd card and the Cryogen rom shows the partition unavaliable i thought it was maybe the sdcard so i bought another one and still same issue. the problem started when i was loading the JACXrom from the Cryogen 3.6.8. I noticed as soon as i loaded the rom my apps were missing. so i used paragon to re format the sd card and it still doesnt read the partion. then i reformated the whole card... and still no luck...anybody have any thoughts?
Have rooted my SGS and Flashed to Froyo (although the external SD card seemed a bit flaky even under Eclair). I'm using a 32Gig SD card of indeterminate heritage.
When I use USB connection, and choose the mass storage option, my PC tells me I can't write anything to the external SD card because it is write protected. I know it isn't as I'm able to write to it with a stand alone card reader/writer, and also able to copy files to it using the Android Manager WiFi app. The only reason I don't just use the WiFi app all the time, is that it seems impossible to copy whole file structures, just files or blocks of files one folder at a time.
Kies is a complete joke, slow as hell, buggy bloat-ware, and only connects to my phone a small percentage of attempts,
I have tried mounting, unmounting, removing, formatting. Has anyone got any ideas what might be the problem?
Oh, I wondered if it might be caused because the SD card is a 'generic' unbranded card of unknown 'class' off a well known auction site. Could it be just that the card is dodgy (I don't have an alternative card to try in it's place)?
Many thanks, Phil
I think my question can be disregarded. Found another thread that says it is the XXJP3 Froyo build that is causing the issue. FWIW I just tried using Kies again, and it corrupted the SD card so now I've got to start from scratch again
i am using the cyanogen mod and have been installing apps to my sd card thru "managing applications". However, i found out that not all of the data is being transferred and some are still left on the internal phone storage. As u guys alr noe, the milestone has very little phone storage, so my phone storage are still quite full at times.
I've seen threads regarding partitioning the sd card so to install the apps to it. Does this really work? I mean is it better than the one mentioned above?
Can someone help with this? I'm new to partitioning so can anyone help by giving step by step instructions, or simply just justify whether this whole partitioning thing works.
Thx in advance
You may give Titanium Backup a try - it can force-move apps from internal memory to SD and vice versa. Long-tap onto the app-> move to sd (or similar, got a german one )
//EDIT: partitioning the sd card is called "app2sd" - there're scripts for this, but with memhack etc. I have enough memory for the moment, so I don't use it
Hi. I dont use SD card , because 5GB of internal memory is enough for me, but when I try to use camera it just write: Inseret SD card before using camera. Even photogalery wont load pictures from internal memory of the phone
With stock ROM everything was OK ,but now...
I am using cyanogen latest nightly build (but with RC1 it was the same problem)
Anyone know solution to this problem ?
Either **** about with the mount points or get yourself an SD card.

Yeah i have got and SD card on spare, but it is a shame have a 5GB of memory and dont use it
You can change some .fstab file around and it'll work, search on the forums I found it here myself
on my Nook running the nightly builds it will read the SD card fine until i reboot for what ever reason. then it sees the card as full and wont do anything with it until i format the card
ATT i am flashing the latest build, just want to see if anyone else has the same issue?
Running CM7 from eMMC or SD? When you say "full", do you really mean read-only? What's the exact symptom(s)?
Rodney
ya i am running CM7 from eMMC, and now that i think about it is is like it goes in to read only mode. when i check it in settings after i get a "You don't have enough space" message, it shows the card full. but i will only have like 300mb( of the 1gb card i use) of files
could it be some type of background Vram or something, i can easily get a bigger card
