System Info Widget bug reports can be posted in this thread

[Vj]

I bought the "system info" widget today (version 2.0.1) via the Android Market, and I can't manage to display external SD card storage. In the list of available items, I can select to display "Free Storage" and "Free SD Card Space" but there is nothing concerning "external SD card".
My version of Android is 2.1 on a Samsung Galaxy S, and 32Gb external SD card installed.

[Jason Calhoun]

Vj,

Free SD card space is referring to your external SD card. When you select that item is it not displaying your external SD card space correctly on the widget?

[Vj]

"Free SD card space" says 5.7 Gb, which is the remaining space on the internal SD card: the 8 Gb internal memory is split in two parts, a 2 Gb section for installing applications, and a 6 Gb section for storing documents. When activated, the "Free SD card space" shows the space left on the second section of the internal memory. There is no way to display the approx. 29 Gb left on my external SD card.

Ok gotcha. It seems that the all of Samsung Galaxy devices are setup up this way. I will work on a fix for this issue.

[Vj]

OK, thanks a lot ! I'm looking forward the next update.
Otherwise, the widget works like a charm. Great job !

[Jason Calhoun]

2.0.2 Update now available in Android Market that resolves free memory on SD card display on Galaxy S devices!

[Vj]

Thanks Jason;
However, I am sorry to tell you the problem remains. Even after complete uninstall/reinstall and device reboot.

[Jason Calhoun]

Hmm, strange that numerous Galaxy S users are telling me that it is now working correctly.

I'm not sure what the issue is on your device. Which Galaxy S model do you have?

[Vj]

Hi Jason;
The system is 2.1-update1; it also says I9000BVJF3, version is "ECLAIR.BVJG2".

Remove the widget from your screen, then go to Android Market and download the newest upgrade (v 2.1.2). Once it finishes downloading, reboot your device and then re-add the widget back to the screen when it turns back on.

Hello. I just bought your widget and I'm really satisfied, except for one thing: on every update (so every 5 seconds by default) it spits the following error to logcat:

It's very annoying!
Since I'm developing on my phone too, I check the logcat often.
I don't have a 4G phone (I'm using Samsung Galaxy Spica, GT-I5700).

Thotep,

I will check into this issue and see if I can get it corrected.

I'm testing the widget on a 4G device and did not notice any errors, thanks for pointing that out.

I just noticed the same here for me on HTC Desire 2.2. Looking for your homepage I found this post.

btw I do not even use toggle items, I only have info items selected in the widget (battery, temp, ram, internal, sd).

It's just debug info..I have it removed in next updates

[Thotep]

Thanks! When can we expect that update?

I should be finished sometime this coming week.

[Jason Calhoun]

v 2.1.3 released today in Android Market

Fixes many things, including displaying the debug output in logcat.

[Allenmat]

Just noticed this my last trip. When I use System Info to engage Airplane mode, my 4 g will come on, or if I turn Airplane mode off, 4g will come on. This doesn't happen when using any other method for turning on Airplane mode ( ie quicksettings or thru the menu). This also occurs whether or not 4g is in the System info widget. I uninstalled the new version and put back 2.1.3, and I still get the same behavior. I am running Myn's Warm 2.2 rls4, but this happened the first time before I loaded rls 4. Previously I was running Myn's rls 2. I will restore to an earlier rom and try it again.

Update. Well 4g doesn't come on when turning on Airplane mode using other methods, but it does come on when turning off Airplane mode using other methods. Looks like it may be something else. More testing.

Update. Wiped and reflashed clean. Don't have the problem anymore. Too much stuff conflicting I guess. Everything is back to being ok.

[LindseyJL]

Is the fix to show the correct external sd card storage for Galaxy S phones still in process?

[bioforce2]

Doesn't look like you look at this anymore, but it would be nice if the free ram was reported correctly on the Droid Incredible 2. The number reported doesnt match either free or used from manage applications. Otherwise, its a nice widget.

[iwhitney96]

Sorry to bother you with this, but on my CDMA galaxy nexus (stock, unrooted), I cannot get to the configuration screen for the widget. The widget works perfectly, but when I open the configuration screen it has a plack box with a smaller dark blue box on the bottom left corner. Is there any way to fix this?
Thanks.
