[G Tablet General] 18.4009:
Hey all, I have had the Gtab now for about two weeks and have been loving it. Running CM7 nightlies it has been smooth and crash free.

That being said I have been eyeing the Transformer. I am kind of a freak when it comes to having the latest and greatest when it comes to smart phones and when I got into the tablet market I wasnt sure if I would really use it much over my android phone.

Well after two weeks I can say I am hooked on tablets now and love having one. The only thing I am not liking about the Gtab is the weight is a little on the heavy side, it is pretty thick and the screen isnt that great but really doesnt bother me that much.

But being one who likes to get the latest and greatest the transformer is looking nice to me.

I am just curious if any of you transformer/Gtab owners have any opinions on if it is that great of an upgrade to warrant it?

I have read over at the Transformer section and it seems like it has its share of issues from poor construction to rom issues. And it being so new there isnt much on the dev side.

Amazingly my local best buy has them in stock but before I jump ship I was just hoping to get a few opinions.

Thanks!

If you want the latest hardware/software and you want it to be the thinest and lightest I would tell you to hold out a few weeks for the new Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 which is lighter/thinner/faster than the new iPad 2.
[G Tablet General] spamhead:
If you do decide to go for a newer tab, be sure you're ready to dump that one in the fall when the Tegra 3 (Kal-El) tablets start rolling out. It will be a quantum leap forward (5 times the capacity of Tegra 2).
[G Tablet General] manikin13:
Have Both - Mini Review

GTab - Owned Since October of '10.

Ran custom since pretty much day 2. Started with TNT-Lite, then Vegan, tried CM7 (didn't like the phone feel), running VegaN Ginger RC-1. Love pretty much everything about the tab except for the screen, and lack of backward facing camera. The Screen also has its uses, as in public places, it has built in privacy. :D

I have crawled through every nook and cranny of the OS, as it is wide open, a hacker's dream. The negatives are the lack of custom accessories. My case is a Solo zippered folio, which works however adds bulk, The dock never officially got sold in the US, and Viewsonic / Tap N Tap not going to include Nvidia, or Malata has pretty much disowned us owners as there is no ginger hardware acceleration (Yet).

I cant wait for a stable Honeycomb port to bring it to the next gen.

Transformer - A1 - 1.5 weeks old

Have not rooted yet, as updates from Asus are still frequent, and root for the last update is not quite there.

Pros: Gorgeous screen, Honeycomb though not polished feels better than ginger, or froyo on the tablet format. built in GPS - location works better than wifi only on the Gtab.

Cons: Lots of apps do not scale, and have not extracted spare parts from the sdk yet. Google Voice app not available in honeycomb, honeycomb does not have SMS capability :confused: , No easy USB access, you either need a gender changer, or the dock.

I am happy, however not ecstatic.

I will be keeping both, as the Gtab will probably get handed down, but lets just say currently the A1 is a inside the park homerun as opposed to a Bomb over the green monster. and the Gtab was a legged out triple, or a standup double.
[G Tablet General] dfin13:
There is a Google Voice app available for Honeycomb, unofficially modified to work -- http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11955195&postcount=75 -- I use it daily for texting :)

I owned a gTab for a few weeks, and now own a TF. The gTab's advantages are a lower price and a USB port, and that's pretty much it (ok, it's probably better for tinkering too). Not knocking the gTab, it's a solid device for the price, but if you're willing to spend an extra $100 or so, you'll be happier with the TF if you're serious about owning a Honeycomb tablet.

However, if you're happy with the gTab and can live with its screen, Honeycomb doesn't have a whole lot to offer right now over 2.3, aside from some apps that are tablet-optimized using HC APIs. You'd probably be better off waiting for another point release from Google, and the inevitable price reductions, or enhancements added at the current price points.
[G Tablet General] manikin13:
Thanks for the link. Installed OK testing it now.
[G Tablet General] 18.4009:
Thanks for all the tips and input. I think I will hold onto the Gtab until later in the summer. The Galaxy looks tight but after owning a Samsung android phone I swore I would never buy a Samsung product again. Will run this Gtab out until something in a descent price point and awesome features roll out.

Thanks!

Technology is always built to be disposable. I always keep that in mind & realize that if one can get past the "need to have" factor, then waiting, no matter how painfully it weighs on ones psyche, is not such a bad thing. I know people who feel that they must have the "latest & greatest", only to find out that they don't. Meanwhile they're spending cash like it grows on trees. Just my thoughts.
[G Tablet General] manikin13:
Not quite true in this case. There is a real difference in the OS. 2.2, or 2.3.4 (unofficial) are really phone OS's even CM7 feels like a phone interface even after Mad Murdock's tablet tweaks. 3.0 has a tablet feel, and better multitasking. That said different strokes for different folks. :)
[G Tablet General] goodintentions:
If you can afford it then I suggest going with the transformer.

Transformer is definitely a better polished product. You can tell that they put a lot of work into designing it. Also, Asus is wonderful in their support of the device. Viewsonic just sucks in this department.

I'm keeping my gtab because it is a lot more hackable than the transformer. However, the transformer does look and feel better.
[G Tablet General] goodintentions:
Or just wait a few more weeks for something better than that. Or wait a few more weeks after that for something even better. Or better yet wait till the fall for tegra 3 tablets.

If you want the latest and greatest, you will just end up not buying anything at all. What's the latest and greatest today will be out-dated by tomorrow.

This is why I tend to buy things slightly outdated for the cheaper prices. They work just as well.
[G Tablet General] EL TEJANO:
Exactly, that's what I mentioned in my last post. Technology is meant to be disposable. There is always that "latest & greatest" moniker that hangs around & if one waits a bit before jumping onto that wagon, they can get that item at a better price. The other benefit is giving it time to have all the kinks worked out as well as having hand at any mods & tweaks.
[G Tablet General] clintre:
I bought my GTab after researching here knowing that there would be better tabs over the Spring and Summer. However I also knew that these would all essentially be the initial tablet launches for the vendors and Android OS for tablets.

So I decided to get a solid yet cheap GTab because of how extensible the guys here at XDA have made it. I felt that if I waited until the late fall and winter season the true next gen of tablets would come out. I know at that point there will be the "next" thing on the horizon, but I feel it will be a good time to jump in completely with the higher end tablets.

I am extremely happy with the GTab despite the screen. My kids will get an excellent hand me down for watching movies and playing games on trips when I get my next tablet.
[G Tablet General] 18.4009:
Yeah, going to hold on to the gtab and use the saved money to buy beer and bbq lol.

Been running cm7 but now trying to talk myself into bottle of smoke...

Just dont want to go through the headache of upgrading to bos to find myself going through the pain of heading back.
[G Tablet General] edirector:
I waited past Christmas to get a tablet and it was painful. Checked every day for something to come out. Finally stumbled across g tab and pulled the trigger in February. Have not looked back or forward. You will never have the latest or greatest technology changes every 6 months point and case, those who bought the first galaxy tab now have an outdated item. The price drop astounding.

G tab beats the rest in price and useabilty, without regular inputs tabs are useless by any maker. I'm not going through a cloud or service to have full access to my own files. Anyway the single thing that satisfies me after that is hack ability. Every time I flash a new rom have a new tab therefore I have a device that never loses my attention satisfying the need for me to go out and purchase something else for now. When I get bored with G tab I simply flash another rom. I like the new rom flavor of the month club. More than likely i would be quickly bored with another tab. The next path for tablets won't be just for consumption already been announced. I 'm there already.
[G Tablet General] xanadu1979:
I agree with this guy. I understand the "if you always wait you'll never end up buying anything" argument. But I only believe that when you don't know for sure what is coming down the road. We know for sure that the Tegra3 is coming this year and it's going to be awesome. I think we know enough about it to wait for it. Unlike the people who are waiting for the iPhone5 because nobody knows when that's coming or what upgrades its going to have.
[G Tablet General] misterminkz:
Gtab is my first android tablet. At first I thought I'll be using the tablet mostly for games and videos. Now I found out there are plenty of games that are simply wouldn't work on tablet (either crash or the screen is very tiny).

I'd wait until most apps are mature enough on tablet before upgrading.

If you upgrade now what you'd get is only a better screen and a slightly better build quality. Performance wise I think GTab is perfectly fine (and honeycomb is coming to Gtab as well).
[G Tablet General] dfin13:
I never used the USB port on my gTab, so I wouldn't say any tablet without it is useless. If I need a file off my networked drives, I can easily do it via a file manager, so the lack of a USB port isn't really a dealbreaker for me, and probably also not for most tablet customers (judging by the fact that the TF sells out immediately after it's in stock anywhere confirms that).

The gTab was the best value tablet until the TF was released. But now I can't really recommend someone buy one for any more than $250, but I would say hold on to the one you have if it's working for you.

Edit: Just saw that the new Toshiba tablet is due out next month, HDMI + USB + removable battery for $429. Only has 8GB built-in though, but it also has a full-sized SD slot, so bumping that up will be cheaper than microSD.
[G Tablet General] hitekredneck:
You may want to hold off on BOS until the notion ink devs get their hands on that new HC update that is supposedly coming down the pipe soon. Roebeet has put BOS on hold until something pops over at notion and he gets some decent stuff to work with for the Gtab.

I went from CM7 to BOS a couple of weeks ago. Took me all of one day to figure out I wanted my CM7 back on my Gtab but that was a no go because of the new v1.2 bootloader. I just went ahead and installed Roebeets Brilliant Corners for full functionality until BOS is mature enough for everyday use.

Stick with CM7 if you like what it offers, at least until BOS is fully functional. I just received my Asus Transformer earlier this week and I do realize what HC has to offer. I love it and I do want it on my Gtab as well, but will have to wait a bit during the bug squashing phase of things.
[G Tablet General] mike_ekim:
[/I] I mostly agree; a compass (for Sky Maps), a GPS (for GPS), or a front facing camera (for bar code scanners, etc) would be more useful to me than a USB port for data transfer/storage.

On the other hand, a USB port for keyboard and mouse is a huge benefit.
[G Tablet General] manikin13:
If you want to use CM7 or for that matter any other 1.1 ROM I believe there is a Clemsyn kernel on the dev page that works with the 1.1 ROMs, and the 1.2 bootloader

Steps are install the ROM, and flash the new kernel.

[G Tablet General] kitsunisan:
I bought my G-Tab last February(when it was still $400, damn it), and have been pretty happy with it. Only real problem I see with it is the poor screen, both in viewing angle and touch response. Everything else I'm loving.

Having said that, if I had it to do over again I would have waited for the Transformer, but I don't regret buying the G-Tab. I've had a very good tablet for the past 4 months to play with.

[G Tablet General] halloweenprince:
just got the 32GB Transformer bundle today on eBay for $425. i wonder if I should let my gTab go to gather the money for the Transformer.
[G Tablet General] skeeterpro:
Started on android with the GTab and enjoyed learning n it. Yes, the screen has chellenges and repartioning was a gas. But the "virtual" indestructability of the OS on the GTab was a super springboard into the workd of androind! My Gtab is now doing the same intro work for a fellow staff member and he's enjoying it as much as I did. I moved to the Transfromer + Keyboard Dock and am blown away! Am seeing many GTab devs working on OC and ROMS for the TF and now that it's on HC 3.1 life is good and getting better! Toshiba? Nope. I hear the screen is acrylic and not glass and not to mention price. Iconia? Pretty hefty weight. No deal. Samsung 10.1? 1.31 pounds and no USB or HDMI plus perhaps $100 more than the TF.

Right now, TF is a solid alternative...for now. Tegra 3 will be interesting!
[G Tablet General] dfin13:
The Thrive screen is made of glass -- the user manual states that. I don't even know where the acrylic thing came from, no one's even laid a hand on one yet. It's only $30 more than the TF, but you get some compelling features with that. I'm tempted, but I'll have to hear some hands-on reviews before I sell my TF for it.
[G Tablet General] manikin13:
Almost a month in

Well thought i'd update my feelings after using the transformer as my primary tab now for a month.

The Great

Screen is gorgeous, fairly responsive (similar to the g-tab), Honeycomb is definitely got a lot of promise. Honeycomb specific widgets are the cats meow - scrollable, clickable, and resizable (I know Launcher pro had this even on 2.2 as a launcher pro registered user). Slim and light.

The Not So Great

Battery life Sans Dock "SUCKS" it's like a smart phone and needs to be plugged in pretty much every night. 7 hours is pushing it. Honeycomb needs to get more bugs ironed out, the Asus launcher leaves much to be desired.

The needs improving

Flash performance even with 3.1, and flash 10.3 can be better. More re-sizable widgets. Accelerometer needs to be tweaked or calibrated. Portrait refresh not smooth.

Overall other than the screen I miss my g-tab, which the wife has now claimed for her own, and gleefully points to the battery life difference.
[G Tablet General] dfin13:
I can honestly say there is nothing that I miss about my gTab. The battery life on my TF is good, though I do read complaints of people having the opposite experience. Seems to be a lot of variance in the quality and performance of the TF, which is troubling -- you'd think they'd all pretty much look and act the same. But hey, it's a $400 tablet with most of the same features as that $600 HC tablet that came out first, and with a vastly superior screen, corners were obviously cut to get it there. I love my TF, but there's a 50/50 chance I am jumping on the Thrive if it gets good reviews.
[G Tablet General] skeeterpro:
Glass huh? That's good. Appreciate the info! Dunno where I read that now but am glad to get the right data before I make a bigger fool of myself! :)
[G Tablet General] c-loo:
I agree that Toshiba looks intriguing. I am trying to decide between that or the Transformer.
[G Tablet General] ewitte:
I've had both and the transformer is definately the better product. Loving the screen, much more stable/functional than any gtablet HC build, using the GPS now bigtime caching for offline use (I drive A LOT). Not sure why you say its not hackable its very easy to hack and ASUS even puts up source code. I've rooted, changed ROMS, overclocked, etc.

Would have held off if Kal-EL was still end of summer but I ended up with $108 credit at Fry's and figured why not? While the CPU is late this year It would probably be as late as April before a decent tablet has been out a few months. I don't want to buy it right out the door... let it get hacked a bit, see the bugs, etc.
[G Tablet General] gtlifter:
Gtablet, if i want GPS i can just use my phone. I'm running the new CM7.1 release and its smooth as can be with no problems, its got great keyboard support and limited mouse support but at least there working on it. The screen isent a issue for me and i watch movies on it all the time but for some it may be.

Dude this is android. Even if there are 1000s of great roms you are free to develop your rom and develop what you want. So don't quit and do what you want. :)

I have no idea's

Apart from 1

Would people like dell stage UI

Touch wiz or dell stage

Edit dell stage looks interesting try that one

[XPERIA X10 General] spaarc:
Another question

WOULD you like to have the dialer and messaging apps as well OR can you just do with the lone UI

And another problem The newest Dell UI is not available I'll porting this one till then

I would like to have dailer and SMS if possible.thanks

Its good to see new blood coming out every day

As far as you are looking for ideas

what about: Sentio ui?

It is not ready yet but the idea is cool

BUT

It is a home replacement app I'm looking forward to porting android custom UI's like those listed

Hello.

First off, I hate myself for doing this, because it is the wrong thing to do. But I have done the right things....

I was wondering if any of you would say that you have experienced such a bug or not:

Also, the glow on the edges - it is messed up. it looks like the attached image.

Thank you.

P.s. I am a developer myself, so you can talk to me :p
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nobnut:
It is neither a software bug, nor a hardware bug. This is a classic example of an 'operator' bug. As I see you are a 'developer', you will undoubtedly be able to fix it, most probably by pushing back your backed-up files right? You did take back-ups didn't you?

PS I'm sure many folk are curious as to why you posted this question in the development thread. Oh! It must be because you are a developer.

Anyway, either push back your backups, or reflash the ROM.

I posted this in the Q&A but there was no answer (Given 100 or so views!), so I thought I need to post this in dev to see whether any of you had the same problem or not.

Well, yes I do have a backup. The question is why it happens sometime after the screen has been on, and not instantly? I mean at first and for the first -say 2hrs- the screen is fine, but afterwards this 'bug' appears.

Nothing gets rid of it, unless you reboot the phone.....
