i originally wanted the 32GB, but they are nowhere to be found in the NYC area, so i just got the 16GB. having had a netbook previously, i only used up about 8GBs on that, since my music collection is about 24,000 songs - i have them on my external. so i really only store documents and photos in the internal storage. i haven't installed that many apps yet, but those shouldn't take up much space also. i just started using Amazon Cloud, so i will be testing that out to see how i'll go by day to day with it. i'm also looking into wireless externals as i've been meaning to get a 2nd backup for my music. Seagate has a very nice one. i figure, i could use that to connect to my GTab as well without the hassle of dongles.

Got a 16 GB white one today morning from BB.

Browser laggy on FB and other javascript heavy websites.

No

No

Not bad. Need to spend some more time to estimate battery life.

No

No issues. Wifi connectivity is actually very good for me.

No issues.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dannyboy22:
Got mine too.

Kind of fat, heavy, dull screen,...

...oh wait, that was my iPad :p

This thing rocks!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dunn32:
Got my Metallic Grey 16GB Tab. Loving it! My bestbuy had about 20-30. All models. Bestbuy wasn't displaying them though. Claimed they didn't know where to place them, even though they had a tablet section with just the XOOM and Iconia.

Anyway, I had a XOOM then an iPad 2, then an iconia, then an iPad 2, and now a Tab 10.1. And I think it's a keeper!

Thanks radiohead14 for the answers given. Return as soon as you can to post more information
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] radiohead14:
more thoughts - the speakers are surprisingly pretty good for their size. and I recommend everyone to get Thumb Keyboard. IMO.. much better and convenient than stock. it splits the keyboard so you could easily type with your thumbs. I also prefer Dolphin HD browser - seems to be more stable than stock.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] :
What system languages can you choose from on the wifi-only version?

Only english or does it have european languages (Sweden)?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ikon8:
There are about 40 languages to choose from, Svenksa being one of them, is that the one you're looking for?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ericc191:
How's gaming? I saw a video of some pretty bad lag on fruit ninja on the 10.1. It might have been on 3.0.1, though.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] :
Yes and thanks, this is great news, and this is on a US tab?

Earlier before i bought xoom i had plan to buy from US, But Xoom from US does not have the EU/nordic languages so i brought it from UK.

Does some one now a US store that ships outside US and have nice prices.

Have find some sellers on ebay that sells the 16gb for about $580. And in stores it cost $499.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ikon8:
Yes this is a US wifi Galaxy Tab 10.1, Svenksa is definitely there. Have you checked Amazon UK, or maybe Bestbuy UK, maybe they ship to you... $580 U.S. is similar to what I paid in California after tax.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] :
Ok, that good.

Its not available in UK shops yet. Can only find it on US sites.

Will take a look and see if i find a trusted dealer on ebay.com that have fast delivery to swe.

The xoom is heavy and the screen its not the best. And have not received 3.1 yet and gets no info when it will arrive in europe.

So will probably order and try if the samsung is better, but have bad experience whit samsung and software after have owned a SGT 7" so dont now how i will do.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Beards:
This is the issue which is preventing me from purchasing.

I know cloud storage is coming in strong but why should we have to resort to using external sources such as hardware and the cloud.

With hardware you have to carry with you another clunky device and the cloud will require a data connection of some sort ~ which may not be available just when you need it the most.

I can not fathom why Samsung chose to leave out the microsd slot.

It's not as if it is difficult or expensive. All you need is the Data Module which will be in Tabs with Mobile & Wifi.

The Data Module has two slots; one slot for the SIM card and another for the MicroSD card.

You simply blank out the SIM part of the module thus allowing you to use the MicroSD card.

It's been done on other Tablets so I can not see why Samsung have not chosen to do it as well.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] zaphyr:
So, you're saying that the 3G/mobile version has a microSD? I hope so, cuz I've pre ordered one
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] gogol:
I just ordered from frys.com. They deliver internationally.

$499 for the 16gb version.

$91 for international delivery, in my case to NL.

Thats all, and I am waiting now.

Import tax usually will be charged by NL postal office when I received it.

Still dont know how long would be the shipping time though.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] :
Is this time first time you ordered from Frys.com?

Does the site have good feedback or some status from earlier buyers?

The price is right, would be interesting to now how fast the shipping is?

The cheapest i found on ebay.com is around $625 with shipping from a top-rated seller.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] zaures:
I have noticed a bit of lag on my grey 32gb version in Youtube on HD videos. I have had a couple of FCs on random videos also, chalk it up to Honeycomb is my opinion.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] gogol:
This is my first time ordering from US. At first, i tried Amazon via forwarder, but put off with the fact that I might require to sign the USPS form 1583 which need me to upload two IDs to the forwarder company! No way.

Then I looked ebay, but could not convinced my self even with top seller.

Then someone here told me that frys.com ships internationally.

I think frys.com is quite popular there, it has stores where you can pick up. Clear address, etc. So, i gave a shot :) Especially because the price is good as well.

You can see the website and probably someone from US can say one two about frys.com :)

Wish me luck!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Hiro666:
Picked up my 16gb grey last night. The quality build is really impressive especially compared to the Transformer I tried out for a couple of weeks. I agree with those who have mentioned the textured back on the metallic grey model looks and feels awfully nice. It may be plastic but it doesn't feel like it.

Screen is nice and even the glass has a smoother feel to it than the Asus and somehow doesn't attract fingerprints. Responsiveness is sweet and everything seems a bit snappier than the Asus but I am chalking much of that to perception more than actual performance. Especially since I don't have one to do a side by side.

Very satisfied with my decision to go with the GTab.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] rog152:
I pre-ordered mine from my local Bestbuy less than 3 miles from my house on Thursday evening. Went in on Friday a little after 10am and there shipment had not arrived. I am now fuming inside(just myself). I had to go to work for the rest of the day till nine--bummer.

It all turned out good though cause my brother found one at his local store on his way home after work and used his reward card and I purchased it over the phone with the clerk and that now gives me 45 days to play around with it instead of 14 as he is a silver card member-super duper.

The bad news is he is over an hour away drive from me and it will be a few days before I can pick it up--bummer.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] :
Did also place a order on Frys.com. went with the 32gb version. Everything went just fine and money was taken from my account. But after a couple of hours i got a mail saying they can deliver my order because of restrictions that that can send it outside US and that i says so on there site.

I can find that its says that they can send samsung stuff outside US. I see that they mention apple,palm and some other manufacturer.

Just hope i get back my money fast and without problems so i can order from ebay.

Me too .. canceled by fry's. Are you sure already charged? Should not, but don't worry it's canceled ...

UPDATE: I checked my cc, it has not been charged by frys.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] gogol:
That's correct, I just checked as well, at least I can choose European country for shipping destination. But, I am a bit tired with this import to EU thing right now :)

Probably will try with forwarder.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] radiohead14:
I started to experience the keyboard input lag some have mentioned. I was using Facebook when it happened. I also notice that scrolling through xda while in landscape mode is not as smooth as portrait. seems to render slower.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ConceptVBS:
I can vouch for frys.com.

It's one of the best specialty electronics stores in the US. Personally, I think its even better than Best Buy. Best buy always annoys the heck out of you to sign up for their stupid credit card EVERY ****ing time you walk into their store. Plus they charge for sometimes ridiculous fees. One time they were asking for $15 to set up your brand new phone you bought with your wireless headset over bluetooth. WTF?!

Fry's carries EVERYTHING, and I mean EVERYTHING you can think of that is electronics. They sell individual electronic components to large appliances, TVs, home theaters, exercise equipments, even magazines, candies, drinks and many many more. Each stores are absolutely massive in size.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] hoekie:
I'm still unsure about waiting or importing.

Dixons in the Netherlands has the Tab wiFi on their site for only 480 euro and a release set for July. I'll probably wait for 2 weeks and make up my mind.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] :
Now when i think about it, Maybe they had just reserved the amount of money that the order needed.

And that it will take some days for my bank to get it back to normal.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dazz87:
Picked up a 16gb on sat. First of all built quality is amazing compare to the other tablets on the market. Love the screen, but the oversaturated is driving me crazy. Its a pain to watch movies on this thing, everyone looks like they all have a sun burn.... It looks like samsung loves to pump the color on their devices. Do you think samsung will add a option that will let adjust the color in a future update?
[Captivate General] hopeless111:
Ok so some background. im on cm7 and i accidentaly deleted the camera in SGS tools. i have been trying to get an .apk camera from sites but it wont let me install them, any ideas. btw i didnt like the camera from cm7 and prefered the one from stock fw on 2.1 thanks any help is appreciated.
[Captivate General] Jemack:
You are not going to be able to use the 2.1 stock camera on cm7. No apps based on samsung source can be used on cm7. To get the cm7 camera back just reflash the nightly that you are on. There are camera apps in market that some prefer over cm7 such as camera 360 or vignette. Mui also has a camera that works on cm7. But no samsung based apps.

[General Questions and Answers] sixk:
Quick question after searching the web and the forum... i might be dumb and not been able to search right if its been posted.

But can you use google voice for local calls using any carrier?

I've noticed my friend's tmo is has call feature but my new sprint phone only has call international as an option.

what would be the problem?
[General Questions and Answers] dirkyd3rk:
Yes you can use google voice for local calls/text i use it all the time. Its almost as if i have 2 separate numbers on one phone. Then you do the initial setup it asks' you if you want to use it for local calls or international and it also has an option of you want the app to ask for each call. Try going to the google voice app and hit settings then you'll see an option that says "making calls"; from there you should be able to choose.

I didnt get any options for local call. it only had international or texting...
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lumewolff:
I have tried multiple radios and roms but with no success. It's always the same issue. I can get 3G working fine. But once I turn on 4G, if I look in the radio settings, I can see it constantly switching between LTE and Unknown for the network type.

I've tried running fix permissions, on multiple radio/roms. What else can I do? I really need some help. If I can't find a solution I'm going to try and have the store replace it for me after unrooting.

This is my 3rd day of this issue. Could I have changed a setting somewhere unkowingly? What should I check and what should I troubleshoot? :confused:

Any help would be MUCH MUCH MUCH appreciated! Thanks in advance!

And before someone says search, I have scoured everywhere I could think of and in as many different ways as I can. I really need some expert help here! :)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lumewolff:
Fixed!

I had a moment of clarity and remembered when I started having issues. Flashed cm7 rc.6 and checked my network settings. At some point I think I turned off National Roaming. Which I think was On before I was having issues.

Flipped the switch and restarted and viola! 4g is back and stable.

I was wrong! It didn't fix anything. I flashed to bamf 1.7 and the 4g issue continues. Help!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GMoGoody:
This may or may not help. I was having 4G issues as well. I was only getting 1X or 3G for days with an intermittent flash of 4G. I took another person's advice on here and I removed my Sim, booted without the Sim, and then put it back in. I have been in 4G since I did this.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaxenroth:
The LTE radio app is helpful for fixing 4g issues. 1st switch to 3g than once you have it than change setting to LTE. That has worked for me in the past. Also make sure batt cover is on.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cferra:
Make sure you batt cover is on, antennas are integrated into it
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lumewolff:
Thanks for all the input everyone! After 2 hours on the phone with Tier 3 support, flashing my phone, removing sim, privisioning my phone, resetting the network switches in my area and syncing multiple things on their end....

Thanks again!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] OUTATIMEMK:
This is my first post here!

So it looks like I may be having a problem with CPU usage and battery drain. My Incredible 2 was fine until this morning when a market update kicked in and started running the whole phone slow, and ate the battery life to 50% within a matter of 2 hours.

I'm not sure where to start with this phone - because I haven't found an app which can give me the list of running processes which are taking the most CPU resources so I can figure out what to kill (or what to remove). Can anyone recommend some tools?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] knucklesmckay:
settings>applications>running services. Elixir is a good app also to show you running services. You don't want to be killing apps a lot or often though, just battery draining or memory hogging ones.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] joggy_:
Just an fyi...the recent Pandora update to version 1.5.9 to a performance hit on both of my DInc2's. Since uninstalling, performance is back to normal.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] OUTATIMEMK:
Ok - that's good info. The thing is, I never opened Pandora or played it, but I did have a widget on one of my panels (it was never active, either). I uninstalled it, but I can't tell if I'm back to normal yet . . .
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rm2011:
By far the best app for this is called watchdog. Amazon had it as its free app of the day a few days ago. all it does is notify you wwhen an app is using more CPU % than it should. It's not a task killer. There's a lite version as well as a full one. I highly suggest it.

And by the way, welcome to XDA!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] OUTATIMEMK:
It looks like the process for HTC Mail is causing CPU drainage (I think it was com.htc.mail or something - I can't get it to reappear). I Force Stopped this process and amazingly, everything starts running smoother - panes switch like silk, scrolling is smooth, etc. This also appears to be what was draining the battery, as it quickly rose to the highest percentage of what was eating it.

The process gets restarted at some point because I've had to Force Stop it a few times already but at least it stays off for quite some time. So far, it's been about half a day since I had to kill it last.

The funny thing is - I can force stop it and still use all my HTC mail functions properly and they run quicker than ever.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Is there anything restricting the images we flash to be in using the Samsung's RFS? Shouldn't we be able to pre-package everything in ext4 and then just flash it to the phone so we get a stock image in whatever format we want?

I've been doing some reading and I found a ruby script that converts RFS images into VFAT images, then it's just a matter of converting it to EXT4 and we've got ourselves a ROM that's fast from the getgo. It does take its sweet time though...

Just a thought. I'm hoping a few of the devs see this so we can get something good going!

EDIT:

Started messing with the RFS files in linux. Apparently nowadays they're just plain on VFAT so you can mount them using a loop device.

mount factoryfs.rfs mydirectory

Then you can just grab and edit as you please, as to trying to make this into ext4, I noticed you get a LOT of overhead (some 30 megabytes for an empty filesystem) so the images would grow considerably, but I think the phones would have enough space on em. Now I just have to test under to see if the phone will like getting an ext4 image flashed to it instead of the RFS images...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Alright just got done messing with this. I managed to successfully flash an EXT4 factoryfs image, BUT, it didn't work right. Tried running commands on the ADB shell and nothing except CD worked... Not even ls. Got a toolbox not found error. Not sure exactly what went wrong even though I used honk's ext4 kernel. Worth a shot though.

[LG Optimus 2x] Taftus:
Hi! And yes I did use search function but all result didn't really help me out.

I just bought this phone and I will replace mine HTC HD2, which I already miss. Oh well this LG seems to be a good phone but I have notice like many people about SD Card problem.

When you check settings and storage info you see that phone have partitioned in to two partition. One for I don't know Intern Memory? And second one seems to be for saving apps/games.

I now have a SD Card 16gb that I mount in and when I use USB connection I get 2 storage to play with, one is around 5gb I think that is phone intern memory?

And second is 14gb that should be external sd card?

I have install several games and apps but I really want them to be on external 16gb and not intern 5gb, I tried Apps2SD but it only move to phone 5gb storage instead of 16gb external. And I don't want to use CM7, I just want to use original firmware until they release 2.3.

Are there any solution for this?

I don't even get to choose where to install games/apps, they just install on phone and than I try to move with Apps2SD but it only go in to phone's memory.

//Cheers
[LG Optimus 2x] Stikkontakt:
May I ask why you want to do this?

The way this phone mounts your storage cards, you can only use the external card for storage. movies, music and such things, while the internal is used for applications.

the internal card is mounted at /mnt/sdcard, while the external card is mounted in /mnt/sdcard/_ExternalSD. that way you access your external through your internal, and applications will see it as one card. Problem is, most applications don't use _ExternalSD explicitly, they all use the sdcard root directory and take it from there.

For most users this way is the preferred. They save music and such things on external and that way keep the internal from clogging up. 5,5GB for application data is more than enough for most of us.

This phone has a large data partition (1,4GB) where ALL applications are installed (this is android default, and probably nothing to do about). This partition will hold thousands of applications.

But if you would like to switch, it is possible by editing a system file. This will require you to install clockworkmod, preferably a version with adb support.

This may void your warranty, and there is always a slight possibility of bricking the device when working with system files. And I can not guarantee it will work.

I will tell you exactly what to do if you choose to try.
[LG Optimus 2x] Taftus:
The reason why I want to do this is because I want as much storage as possible, sure 5.5gb might be enough but game like Spectral Souls just took around 1gb data to download. I mean it's kinda stupid not to use SD Card as storage for application also. That's why I kinda miss my old HTC HD2, I could move apps/games to my SD Card without using intern storage.

If there's the only way to install a custom rom I think I will pass.

I like to use it the firmware it come with, using Launcher PRO Plus atm and I love it. Fast and smooth. Oh well.... This is kinda annoying not to be able to use full out of SD Card. But thanks for the info.
[LG Optimus 2x] Stikkontakt:
You don't need a custom rom, but you need clockworkmod recovery to update the system file needed to change the mounts.

But I still don't see the reason why you need this.. your card is probably also waaay slower than the internal memory
[LG Optimus 2x] Stikkontakt:
anyways, here's the steps.

create a folder called _ExternalSD in your external SD card

install clockworkmod recovery, download a version supporting adb here on the forum

connect your phone to your computer via usb and make sure drivers are installed.

download ADB: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27197205/ADB.rar

extract archive, open command prompt on that folder

reboot into recovery by holding vol down and power until the second lg logo appears, then release both

go to mounts and storage in CWM and mount /system

run pull.bat from command prompt. you should get confirmation that one file was transferred

in the files folder inside ADB folder there is a file called vold.fstab. make a copy for backup. Open it in a text editor

i don't have the original vold.fstab available, so not sure exactly what it says, but there are two lines on the bottom.

They probably says (not necessarily in this order)

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto (and something more here)

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard/_ExternalSD auto (and something more here)

switch this part, leaving everything from auto where it is.

save file and run push.bat from command prompt, you should get a confirmation that file is transferred.

reboot and check if everything is OK. This should work, but if you or some reason get memory card errors after boot, restore the original vold.fstab and I'll look into it.
