You do realize that the Honeycomb/tablet interface 3.0 is a mere 9 weeks old? Apple's IOS for tablets had already been out for roughly 55 weeks and had the the advantage of using existing iphone apps from June of 2007?

I believe Android didn't come around until November of 2009.

It took Apple quite some time to deliver apps and polish the software to where it is today.

It does take time and I would think Google is prepared to put up a hell of a fight.
[Xoom General] yvaditya:
interesting discussion guys, I am about to decide whether to buy xoom or ipad 32GB wifi.

Simple user, prefer a stable and trouble free tablet for daily use. Occasional movie,email, light gaming and some ebook reading. Wont be experimenting much. Almost decided on xoom, any last moment advise?
[Xoom General] chuck-78:
I love my Xoom. My only concern is the lack of apps. I think 6 months from now it won't be an issue.
[Xoom General] epakrat75:
The XOOM is waiting for one or more important software updates. The XOOM was the first HC tablet and has been out the longest. I have also yet to see these other tablets advertised (as) much. Which one will get the most app / accessory support? My bet is on the XOOM regardless of which tablet ends up being technically superior later in the year. When things don't end up working as well other tablets (even though they perhaps should) as the XOOM, I'll be mostly unaffected.

The LG G-Slate has a smaller screen and lacks a SD Card Slot. The newer Samsung Galaxy Tab lacks a built-in HDMI port. The HTC Flyer may have their Sense UI Skin on it, I personally dislike manufacturer skins. The ASUS Transformer's build quality is not as good IMO but it can be had cheaper and supports mouse usage with optional dock. The Toshiba Tablet will have a full SD Card size card slot. Rea search the differences, decide what is important to you.

So far, the biggest weakness seems to be the browser. Any memory leaks there quickly impact system-wide performance. Killing it and the Xoom gets back to SPEEDY.

Hello, I'm thinking of getting the 7" Galaxy Tab (wifi only) and wanted to see what everyone thought about it. What are the pros/cons, and is this the best tablet out there for the money?

We currently have a rooted Nook, so I imagine it will be close to that (but better) - but that is my wife's. I wanted something for myself, something with great hardware performance, but also easier to carry around than an iPad2.

What do you guys think?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BernardOng:
Galaxy Tab will be your choice for mobility and performance. After you root it and load with custom Rom , you will fall in love with it. My son loves it
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pendevous:
I think that it's a good idea, but keep in mind that the Nook Color is really customizable and is offered at a low price. What you do get with the Tab is better performance, better screen, and... Well, just about better everything, except the price tag and the battery life.

However, consider getting the 3G version as well if you really plan to use the internet anywhere. It's fun! :D
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] piercenkc:
Isn't it like $20/month? I'm going to be getting a Samsung Epic here soon, and I live in Kansas City so 4G is great here.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlexTheStampede:
The wifi version is crippled, go with the 3g. No h264 decoding, up to 720p only (and only in mp4!), and different hardware so you will need to get a custom rom for the wifi version, one for the 3g wouldn't work. Apparently they don't even have the same cpu...

Galaxy tab is the best . but why u wont wait for tab10.1 and don't tell me is big ..

yeah is big . but OMG :D
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ayman07:
i would say that the gtab is the best device i have ever bought. i have no regrets purchasing it for the full price. no other tablet (thats out now) can compete with this 7" beauty. its the best 7" tablet on the market right now,hands down! screw the nook color. i use this thing every single day. its my main device, i carry only this device, no cell phone. battery life is great for its size. but after 6 months of using it, i feel like i need to upgrade it. i know this seems like a total 180, but i want a dual core version with honeycomb (and some more RAM) but with the exact same size. everything else is great! the only reason im saying this is because i consider myself a heavy power user (the elite of the elite) and i feel like sometimes it just doesnt keep up. but if ur not like me then this will feel like its blazin fast for you. since i know that i wont get what i want, i still recommend this to people considering a nook color something else.

Have a look at this thread, it seems the wifi tab can only play divx at 720p and not h264 720p like the 3g can. If video playback is a major reason for buying the tab then stick to the 3g version!
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paulshields:
The Tab is by far the best phone/tablet hybrid out there right now. The important factors to me are:

* size (pocketable)

* screen resolution

* build quality

* GPU acceleration for HD video

I took it with me last week while travelling around Krakow, Poland. Picked up a Polish Internet SIM for £10 or so. It was like having a personal guide at all times. Google Places, Tripadvisor app, email, websites. All there at the touch of a button, and all pocketable. An iPad would be useless for such a trip.

I think it's best to think of the Galaxy Tab as a sort of phone/tablet hybrid rather than just a tablet. Honeycomb will not be targeted at this device as physically it's as much a phone as a tablet. This is a good thing as Honeycomb tablets are too big to carry around town and are lacking in telephony. The OS update after Honeycomb will bring that OS's functionality for smaller devices, but for now it can seem an oddity as it needs a phone OS (Froyo, Gingerbread etc) to be fully functional.

As it stand though, there's nothing that can match it :).
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyberpyr8:
I originally bought the Viewsonic G-Tab because it had the Tegra 2 processor and Xoom like hardware. Even though the screen was 10.1" it was terrible to see from almost all angles.

I decided to exchange it for the wifi only Tab and I have not been disappointed. It looks great and I actually think I prefer the smaller screen than I did the 10.1 tablet. I find the weight is more evenly distributed in your hands and that I can more easily type since my hands can span the screen. It doesn't sound like a big deal but unlike my phone I find myself using this thing for hours at a time and holding the larger heavier tablet wears on you after a while.

The battery life is decent even with heavy use. The device feels sturdy and well put together. I think the touch is responsive and the glare on the glass is not any worse then the other tablets out there.

I know I have heard how the wifi version is not as good as the 3G version. Honestly, I have a Vibrant that I can tether off of and I don't need the 3G and added monthly costs. I am almost always around an access point anyway. It runs fast and downloads better than my phone. I would like to have custom roms to put on it but I rooted it and added VT-Launcher and it looks like a different tablet.

Finally, I looked at Honeycomb and those tablets. I really don't see the big deal. The 2.2.1 FroYo does everything that you would want from a tablet with the right apps. I can do everything I need to and then some. Honeycomb isn't going to add any capabilities that I don't already have. My only complaints with the Tab is that it doesn't charge with the USB from a PC (at least very fast) and that the VPN isn't working for me with PPTP right now. I have a call into Samsung and I hope to get that resolved soon. Otherwise, this is a great buy.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donetus:
i'm still having doubts with my Tab (wifi version) since i'm unable to "use" its full potential. i didn't bother though getting the 3g version since i have a small phone at hand.

i'm a little unsatisfied but it's all good. i primarily use it for viewing and editing documents, surfing the net and some music and audio. that's pretty much it. if there's someone who'd be able to do a custom rom for the wifi version, then i'd be recommending this Tab.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xjrick:
I have both a Nook and a Sprint G-tab. If I wouldnt have gotten the deal I did on the G-Tab (company paid for it) I would return it. not that it is a bad unit, I am pretty pleased with it. My Nook has CM7 loaded on it and comparing the two comes out pretty much a wash. They are both great devices. I use the crap out of a tablet and both do everything that I want them to do.

Just my $.02 on the subject.

So my PRL updated from 60675 to 01115 (I'm running the stock Evo ROM, rooted) and now my data download speeds are about a third of what they used to be. I could get up to 2.1 megs down on 3G, but now its at .9 megs. Does anybody have a flashable zip to downgrade my PRL?

EDIT: Is anyone else having this problem?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madeagain:
So... Im not an android expert yet bu any means but here is what I noticed. My wife and I, both have, hardware version 0004 and got the 01115 PRL update in Minneapolis. I started having problems...my data slowed WAY down... her performance got a bit better. I couldnt figure it out... Im running EternalProphecy she is running mikfroyo 4.5 both on Net's 4.3.4 CFS SBC HAVS MORE... I tried everything to fix it and almost just said bump it and reflashed and started all over... I ever tried the radio from the Gingerbread leak,, NADA! other than that the only difference I could find between our setups was I had done the EPST fix for faster streaming and 3G...

Anyways, very long story short... I cleared my EPST data in manage apps... did a ##3282# data restore, BLAM! running great... maybe it will work for you too if you had done the EPST HTTP to 0 deal. Hope that helps
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cordell12:
Yes, I saw a new PRL and went right to sense rom to get it. Boy was that a mistake! My DL speeds went down, I live in a small town with 5k people. Verizon has a tower close to my house, from what I gather Sprint uses that tower as well so my 3G has always been good, until the other day that is. I ended up going back to my old PRL, but speeds still suck! I dont know WTF is up, I also have a file named "throttle" located DATA>SYSTEM>THROTTLE. If I delete this file my speeds go up to to where they were before, 5 minutes later the file rebuilds itself and speeds drop instantly :( I have wiped and installed new roms with no fix of this crappy speeds, only to delete the file :confused: Anyway, glad my WiFi is good ;)

to do this

now from here you can either hook up usb and put it on your pc or email it like i did..

Whats a ##3282# data restore? I was getting 2.4 mb download, updated prl, and dropped to like .9 (also in minneapolis).

I thought it was because of 01115, so I installed 60678, and not any better. Cleared data for epst, but I'm not sure what you mean by ##3282# restore. All the values are exactly how I left them.

Edit: Figured out what you were talking about. Didn't help though. I canceled when it tried to update my prl so I could stick with 60678. Should I have let it go through the whole process?

[Vibrant General] laylovj:
Root by using Superoneclickroot 1.9. You can flash a voodoo enabled kernel to get the Red voodoo/CWM recovery or flash back to stock to apply update.zip.
[Vibrant General] tenbeau:
When you attempt to go into recovery in CWM and you select Flash recovery :) if it goes to the stock recovery you should select "reininstall packages" sometimes it takes 2 or 3 times of doing this and than it will finally take and you should have CW recovery.:)
[Vibrant General] laylovj:
3e recovery doesn't allow you to flash update.zip files.
[Vibrant General] movieaddict:
downgrade with odin to 2.1 with the proper tar file and pit file. Then when ur on 2.1 its alot easier. Put the update package on ur internal sd card and turn ur phone off. Then hold down both volume buttons then power it back on and when u see vibrant come on let go of the power button. U will then see recovery then all u have to do is reinstall package and u may have to do that once or twice but then after that u will have the green recovery and ur phone will be rooted and ready to rock with some roms.

I was about to just.... i dont know, the word run came to mind... Anyway.

WHat a beautiful phone, i mean it you guys have got something here, and im glad i added this to my growing list of android device's this is my fifth since my first love The G1.

I presumed and though i could install Cyanogenmod on it that was the immediant reason i got it, i didnt do any reaseachr and now know that u can but it runs really ruff and isnt supported... so.

I modded via this cyanogen wiki

i got all the way to the part about installing rom manager and flashing CWM,

However i went to do this (yes im rooted) and all i get is when i flash cwm and i try to reboot into cwm from rom manager to make a backup is i get to the samsung 2e recovery screen ..

A little more research i see something that i need to install or excuse me i need a program called odin, and i need the cwm packaged via this thread but the CWM package is no longer hosted...

SHould i be downgrading here? And its best to assume while i have rooted and taken the virginity of the G1, Eris, Droid, Droid 2 Droid X and now this beyond what i have described here is my limited experience with this phone.

Also bear in mind that this phone was factory reset when i got it, and was 100% virgin. It is now rooted but that is it. I really wanted to get back to "my roots" like my G1 and have a fully modable phone from kernal on up and was stoked to get this. But im lost and i cant seem to find much help else where, or what appears to be people telling me to reroot and i know that is incorrect.
