[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Ravynmagi:
I had a Transformer and returned it in anticipation for the Galaxy Tab. However here are some of the pros I see with the Transformer.

+ $100 cheaper

+ microSD slot (might have to buy an expensive 3G Galaxy Tab for micro SD)

+ mini HDMI port

+ micro USB port

+ Keyboard dock converts tablet to netbook and extends battery to 16 hours.

I'm giving up a lot just for the Galaxy Tab's lighter weight and sleeker look. I think the Transformer is just ugly. I hope the Galaxy Tab is worth it.

But I'm about to cancel my JR.com pre-order. Think I might be safer just buying it from Best Buy in case this turns out to be yet another tablet that doesn't live up to expectations and has to be returned.

Hate to say it, but I want a tablet that feels like it's quality built. The Xoom felt quality, just way too heavy. The Transformer felt and looked cheap. The Samsung GT looks quality, but... crossing my fingers. Hope these Android manufactures don't make me go out and buy an iPad 2 after all this waiting. :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] bullzeye.za:
You forgot the all important

2. Has 3G
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ralexand:
I hate sounding like one of "those" people, but if I have a laptop then why would I want a keyboard for my tablet? Anyway, that's my personal preference and I understand it's a big reason people want the transformer, but for $150 more it's just out of the question for me.

Ports? The tab, while it does not have specific HDMI/USB ports, will have HDMI & USB connectors. Unfortunately you'll have to shell out some bucks (I'd guess around $30) for an HDMI connector.

The official (non-IO model) 10.1 may have an SDCard slot, but no one knows for sure, yet.

Weighs less and you missed that it is much thinner. Form factor is huge when it comes to a device that you're holding during 90% of its usage.

I dunno -- if the tab wasnt coming out I would be getting a Transformer. I'm just not sold after seeing the transformer in action.

And as an Android enthusiast it pains me to say this, but having TouchWiz layered over Honeycomb may boost the user-experience. I played with the Xoom for a week and really thought that if a manufacturer layered a UI/UX over top of Honeycomb it would have been a MUCH better experience.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] kponti:
So build quality issues like all the other tablets out there now...check

Can't play hi def video like all the other android tablets out there now..check

iPad2 here I come!!! Just gotta find a good microsoft office app and it is the perfect tablet! Definitely superior to all the current tablets or there now (please don't quote hardware specs, if the hardware and software worked well together there wouldn't be all these threads out on android tablet forums)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] appelflap:
The 10.1v also has a weight of only 595g .
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] duncan_mccloud:
weighed mine on digital kitchen scales 574g.. anyway at the beginning of the thread i said was gonna go for the transformer... after watching hundreds of youtube videos on it.. I have changed my mind.. will wait and see what the 10.1 is like in terms of quality and price (3G version when it's out)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jason Black:
I have an issue with installing apps. When i go on the market and try to install an app, it tells me insufficient memory. Even Titanium wont install apps but i can see the available space there.

Here's what i can see

System Rom: 367MB (108 MB Free)

Internal: 446MB (271 MB Free)

SD Card: 7.40GB (3.32 GB Free)

SD Card (a2sd): 493MB (25.0 MB free)

It seems like all the apps are in the a2sd partition. Which isnt bad, but its not letting me install anymore apps into it.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!
[XPERIA X10 General] Astral07:
Hi guys, i just want to ask for your opinion. I should soon have an option to upgrade to Xperia Neo and it would cost me about 100€ after i sold my x10. Do you think it would be worth it?

I would actually like the smaller screen and phone size, 4" is a bit too much for me, 3.7 could be just right.

That said, i wouldn't really use the hdmi and front camera, and with x10 getting an 2.3 update it's kinda pointless to "upgrade" wouldn't you say? The main advantage for me would be that Neo is more compact.

What do you think?
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
I think wait for something better, but that's just my opinion
[XPERIA X10 General] ooidort:
If you put much weight on having the latest version of android, buy the Neo. If not, save your money.
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
We will get that soon anyway though!
[XPERIA X10 General] ooidort:
Yes, but I meant past 2.3.3.
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
Lol who knows how well se will support those phones though..

I'd wait a bit there are much better phones now and in the not so distant future there will be even better
[XPERIA X10 General] totalundone:
Meh, the 2.3 update on the X10 shouldn't really be a factor into whether or not you go for a new phone. The Neo doesn't offer too much more for 100€.

Pros: slightly quicker, will receive updates past 2.3

Neg: Not that much smaller (still 13mm thick but reduction in width is nice)

Other: Lots of other small improvements like the screen, camera (hdmi and front cam but you said you won't use it so it's just a mild pro in this case)

A question to ask yourself is if the Neo is a phone you'll still be happy with (with current specs) in a year or two?

I would wait for something else.
[XPERIA X10 General] Astral07:
thanks for the answers guys

all of you are correct and i'm not sure what to do, i'll just see when i'm presented with the option, maybe it'll be +100€, maybe less, so who knows

i know Neo is as thick as the x10 and it's not much smaller (only 3mm (119 vs 116)) but i think that because it's way "rounder" than the x10 is, it'll be more pocketable and overall easier to use, don't you think?

Actually, the X10 is a phone i would still be happy to use in a year or two, BUT it's size bothers me, sometimes it's just a hassle to use, i don't know how some of you manage with an even bigger screen but my hands are just not built for that, and i'm not such a small guy! :)

So yeah, the specs of the X10 is basically everything i need in a phone, so i guess Neo should be just as good for me, i don't really think dual core phone would help that much in messaging and calling people :) the games i play run just fine so i'm good

only thing i'd like is Full HD recording but that's not imperative and as far as i know, no phone has that yet but i guess in a 2 year timeframe it'll be mainstream so i'll just wait for that, i don't like to spend too much cash for my phones, i got the x10 more than a year ago for 200€ which was a real steal, so i'm happy with what i got :) it's just that damn size :)
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
Things are going to change a LOT though in the next year or so, so although it may seem fine now, just wait and see...
[XPERIA X10 General] realunited123:
It will always keep changing. If you need something take it or just use what you have..
[XPERIA X10 General] noregret70:
+less width

+front camera for Video calls

+hdmi (use as multimedia player)

-upgrade from x10 will cost about 200eu
[XPERIA X10 General] fiscidtox:
Yes but the neos specs will put you already a year behind ....

The processor is already a year old.

Why not get something that will remain forward thinking for more than a month or two
[XPERIA X10 General] Astral07:
Thanks again for all your input, i guess it'll come down to how much this upgrade will cost me. I get the phones for a different price than everybody else so we'll see, until september it's x10 for me

Peace
[XPERIA X10 General] Hotdemon:
i recomend u buy it

xperia neo has a bravia engine and the x mor sensor etc

[Captivate Themes and Apps] norcal530:
Does anyone have the apk for tunee music pro? If so,can you please post it? I'm running on miui and it doesnt show up in the market or anywhere else now. I paid for this app over 3 months ago, and I've barely been able to enjoy it. Its the best music app I've used so far. I want to be able to enjoy it again.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Twoam:
Tunee.net Is their website. You com always ask them. Not sure why it isn't showing up, I saw it when searching for music pro.

Not sure if you should be asking for the apk of a paid app...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Psyloid:
Hi, I am making a custom custom rom out of another rom and i am wondering how i can edit the default android settings to my likings, tried looking in the settings.apk, tried googeling, tried searching this forum

Thanks
[Thunderbolt General] raidendex:
Been experiencing a high battery drain past few days on both VirusROM and BAMF 1.6.3. According to CurrentWidget it keeps at 260-270mA most of the time with screen off. On it jumps up to 400-500mA pretty much right away.

The strage thing is that I haven't really changed anything and have seen 40-60mA draw while idle before.

Partial wake usage mainly lists Android System, everything else has really short duration times.

Any idea how I could track down what's using so much power during idle? Have very few apps installed and all that are installed are pretty standard I think.

Here's a list of what I have:

Where's my droid

Appstore (amazon)

ShootMe

Solo Lite

Facebook

Fandango

Go Launcher EX (maybe this? was updated recently)

Calendar (widget for EX) as well as two themes for EX

Google Maps

Gmail

GO SMS Pro and a theme

Foursquare

Screen Off and Lock widget

ROM Manager

CurrentWidget

SoundHound

Ginger keyboard

Shush!

ColorNote

gTabSiMiClock

Ringer Volume

Retro Cam+

SMS Backup

As far as general settings, Wifi and GPS are always on as well as syncfor gmail and FB, but then again they were since day one and I've seen idle draw at 40-60mA always before.

Thanks for the help.
[Thunderbolt General] squeakyl:
Have you changed your wallpaper recently?

Mine used to be orange with flames, and it used to do the same thing. Since then, I changed it to a space themed wallpaper that's mostly black and dark blue . My current power usage has gone down significantly to idling at 30 unless I use it!! Try that!!

You could also recalibrate your battery if you haven't done that since ROMing, I did that at the same time too, but I don't think that did it.
[Thunderbolt General] raidendex:
Darker wallpaper hmm. Well I changed it to something darker though it doesn't make sense that it would drain battery differently while screen is off, but I guess it doesn't have to make sense heh.

I did use all kinds of wallpapers before even live ones and never really seen such high idle use before. Will try to drain battery and recharge as I haven't done that in a while.
[Thunderbolt General] raidendex:
Going to try and wipe everything and just install bamf 1.6.3 along with currentWidget and see what happens I guess. And if issue is fixed will slowly add apps one at a time to try and find which one causes the problem. It also possible that TitaniumBackUp is causing the issue as lately I was using it to reinstall all apps instead of going to the market and doing it that way.
[Thunderbolt General] squeakyl:
make sure you re calibrate your battery after ROMing, if you haven't done that already. That fixed all my idling power consumption (and charging) problems
[Thunderbolt General] Forgetfull:
Try applying airplane mode. That will help you see if your radios are eating battery.
[Thunderbolt General] raidendex:
Reinstalled the rom and while I didn't want to install any apps market restored everything I had, but I did not use TitaniumBackup this time and so far everything is fine. Idle is back down to 40s mA.

I guess was some glitch in the backups. Because everything else is the same.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sstephen17:
Just got my Transformer from Fry's yesterday. I've charged it, downloaded some apps and played around with it. However, I noticed I don't seem to have the most current build according to the XDA change log. Mine is showing up as:

8.2.3.9-20110423

I tried doing a System Update in the About Tablet section of the settings but it says there is no update for my device. I didn't receive any notification to download any sort of update either. How do I manually update?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ad1980:
Curious, did you buy it as open box?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JMQUINT00:
just go to Asus website under support for the tf and download the newer firmware and the SOP document which has the instructions its really easy you need a micro SD card.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sstephen17:
No, it was brand new, unopened. I was able to do the manual download after checking out the change log thread. Seems to be working fine.

Very impressed by the Transformer so far. Coming from the original iPad, I'm amazed by the speed both in transitioning to different apps and the web as well. For some reason, the iPad screen seems a little smoother. Is that because of the Gorilla glass on the Transformer?

I downloaded a couple of apps that weren't specifically tablet optimized, specifically Battleheart. Looks absolutely gorgeous; I was afraid of pixilization but it looks exactly the same as Battleheart on my Motorola Droid, just bigger and it runs much, much faster.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sstephen17:
Actually, I didn't have a micro SD card handy. All I did was plug it via USB to my computer (Windows 7) and simply dumped the file I downloaded in there, not to a specific folder since I didn't know where it should go. As soon as I unplugged, there was a notification saying an update was found so I guess it worked that way too.

Guys !!! succesfully played alot of mkv's (movies, animes tv-shows all HD)

this one is much better than rock player gonna buy this app definetly !

edit: when i click ''about'' in the app it crashes to the main screen !
[HTC Sensation] abuserkadayf:
found a bug.. if you have a mkv file on the sd-card and you click show thumbnails in the settings the program crashes !
[HTC Sensation] RaspberryKisses:
awesome player! but while integrated MKV subtitles do show up (720p mkv). the separate .ass subtitles don't show up(maybe because still only 3 subtitle encodings) they DO show up in rockplayer and vplayer. One more thing it could be awesome if you could implement audio tracks switching. i'm very interested in buying this player but i need all my subtitles to work and audio tracks switching =(

Check in market options whether install everything is ticked

Market options???

The only similar thing that I find is the "content filtering" and is already selected to "Show all apps".

That is it? If yes, unfortunately doesn't work yet.

OK, I need to recognize that I am noob on Android, so it could be probably something that I am not doing right.....

this app runs GREAT! so much more smooth than vplayer! only one problem I found so far since I watch a lot of anime with embedded subtitles. Most are .mkv with .ass subtitles. .ass subtitles embedded in .mkv don't seem to load although .srt load fine.

Can you integrate support for .ass subtitles?

I attached an example .ass subtitle (i put it in a .rar archive since xda didn't allow .ass as attachment..)

Thank you ! :)

I've noticed the program tends to crash back to menu when playing video (mkv, 720p, h264). When I resume, it would resume form the last non-crashed place that I had started.

Is this a known issue? Is there a place to file a bug to have it looked into?
[HTC Sensation] Kupfel:
wow, this was already implemented :D

two bugs that I found with the same subtitle as attached above:

if there is a comma, the comma and the whole rest of that line is not displayed. if it is a two-line entry and the comma is in the first line then everything starting with the comma including the second line is not displayed.

for example:

will finally be secure.

displays as:

if there are two lines in one entry then a capital N is displayed in front of the line

Works awesome so far! 720p mkv stuff that rockplayer/moboplayer/stock player can't handle in either hardware or software mode, and an avi I've been trying where the sound cuts out during playback with the other players works good on this app.
[HTC Sensation] GorillaPimp:
Yeah just tried a mkv on dice and it played perfect. Tried the same file with the default player and 1 minute in the sound died.

Dev can you turn off the light beneath the panel buttons - home, menu, back search - while video is playing?
[HTC Sensation] hurrpancakes:
I'm pretty sure that's related to the light sensor. If you are in a daytime or otherwise bright environment, the lights won't turn on, but if you're in a dark room or cover the sensor, the lights turn on.
[HTC Sensation] GorillaPimp:
For me they are always lit when the phone screen is on. Bright or dark it's the same.

Man, this thing needs to be in direct bright light to cut off.
