[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramim121:
I have bought my samsung Galaxy S GT i9000 from middle east...and currently i am in Bangladesh (Southern asia)..

Q.1 - Can i Select Any Firmware of version 2.3.3 from samfirware.com or Should i select the "I9000JPJV6 " (JP is from arabic Region) (because i read somewhere the region code should be matched...)

Q.2 - Will my all functionality work ? Or there will be problem due to XX or JP firmware ?

Q.3 - is JPJV6 full arabic ?

Please answer me...this my my first help post..

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shrapnel2:
As long as your phone is unlocked any I9000 firmware will work. I've changed roms a ton to ones from different regions and the only problem has every been the modem as I have an I9000T(850mhz enabled modems) which doesn't apply as you have the I9000.

So:

Q1 Yes(2.3.4 JVP is newer than 2.3.3 roms though)

Q2 Shouldn't be any problem

Q3 Sorry have no idea, you'll just have to try it out.

I was looking at some files on the Heroc ROM. I came across a file called "res/layout/fake_phone_activity.xml" It is located in "/system/app/phone.apk" This file is also present on the Eris.

1. What is fake phone activity?

2. What does res stand for?

I must noticed the bezel on my new GT 10.1 has a small bump on the top left edge of the bezel.

I thought it may be a scratch, but it looks lime a casting defect... Has anyone else seen odd bits on the plastic bezel?

I'm thinking if exchanging it, but won't bother if its pretty normal.

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] FrezoreR:
Feel free to take an image. But that corner and the opposite is where the to pieces joins on my tab.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Asori:
Yep... mine has the same thing too. Mine is on every single corner. I doubt this is a defect, I never even noticed it until I seen your post and looked very closely.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] scmguru:
When held in landscape mode, the 'bump' is on the left side, on the bezel surface that is flush with the bezel and directly above the speaker.

Ie I felt it as a bump becuase it was right next to the edge of the screen.

I will try and take picture..

I was able to successful flash my phone with the newly leaked GB Rom. However once I completed the update I noticed that I was no longer receiving data packets and that I was no longer connected to the T-Mobile network. The only way I could make calls was to use "WiFi Calling". I searched the internet for anyone who had this problem and if there is a fix for it, but to no avail. Has anyone encountered this problem and if so, did you find a solution to it?

Thanks in advance for any help you can give to resolve this problem.

Had the same issue after flashing KJ6, crappy signal, getting booted off network. Could not get the signal back no matter which ROM I used. Just got replacement phone from T-Mobile yesterday.

As a note: I never lost my IMEI, and I could manually register on T-Mo network, but would get booted after a few minutes, usually when I went indoors - the signal strength became unusable.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] henreeg:
Hey Fellas,

I'm currently an iPad 2 user. I have a Galaxy S phone (which I love) and won't give it up for an iPhone. I was considering buying a Tab... but I didn't have much of a choice when the iPad 2 came out.

Today I ran into a Galaxy Tab 10.1 (it was AMAZING) and I'm thinking about returning my iPad 2.

Would anyone recommend this?

I love the Android OS. I chose the iOS because of the amount of useful school/work apps it has. [IT field].

Another question is... does anyone here own both [or tried both the iPad 2 AND the G Tab]? I have to say that the iPad 2 keyboard was much smoother than the Galaxy Tab.

I tried it quick.. I didn't have much time to play with it. I thought the keyboard wasn't as fast.

How about school/IT apps?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lordwinkevin:
My mom have the iPad 2 and I love Honeycomb but when compared to iOS its missing a whole lot, especially on apps.

Honeycomb is a new OS for tablets and I see it growing in the future and apps are slowly being ported and optimized for Honeycomb tablets. iOS has been in the market for a while and honeycomb has got some catching up to do.

Buy a tablet for what it is now instead of expecting something out of it and just getting frustrated waiting for an app. I bout a zune HD thinking it will go toe to toe with the iPod touch but was just disappointed and ended up selling it and buying the iPod touch.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hoodoomagic:
Other than the infamous lag when typing in forums, keyboard speed is fine in every application I've used so far. For some the forum thing is a big deal, and I've worked around it for now by using a remote desktop app if I really feel the need to post an essay using the tab, but obviously that isn't ideal.

As for the keyboard itself, there are plenty to choose from. Swiftkey, Thumb Keyboard and Swype are all excellent alternatives if you don't like the stock HC keyboard or the Samsung one.

The tab comes with Quick Office pre-installed and that will do the job if you want to take notes and read documents. There are about a half dozen office suites and each have their pro's and con's, if you want to learn more about them there is a good comparison thread over at the Asus Transformer forums. They all have a ways to go though before they're suitable for real work with documents however.

For IT, I imagine apps like LogMeIn, Wyse Pocket Cloud, Overlook Fing, andSMB, SharesFinder, ASProxy, Connect Bot, etc would be useful.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] verusevo:
to give you an honest answer stick with the Ipad. Everyone on here will try to give you a reach around about why the TAB is so great. But quite frankly in its current state its not. I'm typing this on my tab right now and am getting pissed that my words are showing up well after I press the keys. There are NO USEFULL ANDROID TABLET APPS available at this time. You want proof. Go to the marketplace and see if you van even tell the difference between what is a table app and what isn't. Some tablet apps even have disclaimers stating they aren't even compatible with the GT yet. I purchased my tab because I'm believing in the Modding community will one day provide me with the goodies I crave for use on what is a very (hardware) capable device. But if you want somethingthat just works right now... get an IPAD.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ravynmagi:
I am still so much on the fence about the GT 10.1 I have a hard time even trying to formulate a reply to this. As I think I go back and forth every 5 minutes.

GT 10.1

+ Android is open, open file system, third party app stores/markets.

+ Wide screen display, higher resolution, and stereo speakers great for videos.

+ Highly customizable with widgets.

+ XDA community usually does great job with custom ROMs.

+ Google apps and Amazon CloudDrive and App Store are great.

- Android 3 is a rush job, screen response not great (not bad either), keyboard lag.

- App crashes and random reboots rare, but happen more than they should.

- Tablet app select still small, and Android app versions sometimes inferior to iOS.

- Uncertainty when Samsung might push the Android 4.0 update, they've been ver slow in the past.

- No Netflix :(

iPad 2 (I own an iPad 1, so this is mostly about iOS)

+ Over a year head start in tablets, lots of quality apps.

+ iOS versions of some apps are better, Tweetdeck, Tune In Radio, Taptu, etc.

+ Netflix, Hulu Plus (don't care for Hulu, but really miss Netflix on my GT 10.1)

+ iOS very responsive and smooth.

+ Square screen ratio nice for browsing, ebooks.

+ Apple makes software and hardware, so dependable updates.

- No file system access, must use iTunes (usually) to transfer files.

- Google, YouTube apps sucks on iOS.

- No third party application markets (no good Jailbreak for iPad 2, so no Cydia).

- Lower res display, 512MB of RAM.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Asori:
Hello!

My friend owns the iPad/iPad 2 and I use them regularly when I'm at his house as he has multiple. I own a Galaxy Tab 7" and 10.1 myself. Here's my personal opinion:

The iPad had a significant build quality difference between it and the 7" Tab. The Galaxy Tab 10.1 corrects this, but it's still very difficult to beat a uniform metal structure versus a plastic one. This will boil down to whether you prefer a higher build quality, or a lighter device. The 10.1 is way lighter, the iPad 2's build quality is better.

As far as applications go... iOS tablet-centric apps blows Android out of the water. There is no denying this. You can still get any application you need on both platforms, but the higher resolution ones on the iPad are way more numerous. Here's to hoping this changes soon for Honeycomb.

As far as operating systems go... Honeycomb is ages beyond iOS in terms of a more desktop-like feel on a Tablet and less of a phone-like feel. iOS 5 does little to correct this. You will find the OS itself much more pleasant on a Honeycomb tablet.

Hardware: The processor in the iPad 2 is fast. The processor in the Galaxy Tab 10.1 is fast. I don't see any speed differences between the two, except for the browser. The lead Google put in Android 2.2 shows heavily with the UI optimized for Tablets. Also, the Tegra 2 processor is the first processor I can say having Flash is a definitive advantage. I can stream HD videos from Flash sources on the web (ABC, Crunchyroll, etc) with very little to no stuttering. Props to NVidia here. I could probably do a video for you, if you were interested.

The back camera on the Galaxy Tab 10.1 is far superior, though I don't think you'll be using it very often when cameras on phones are smaller and easier to use. Just my opinion.

Last but not least: I really dislike the iPad (iOS 4) and Google's default keyboard on Tablets. They are extremely hard to use while handling the device. I use Swiftkey Tablet X on my 7" and 10.1" Tab and LOVE it. If you keep your iPad 2 I really suggest you get iOS 5 on it to take advantage of the split keyboard effect. It makes typing far easier. If you do go back and get a Google-based Tab, drop their crappy keyboard and get Swiftkey X. It's in beta - I can send you the apk if you do end up going that route. Just PM me.

[Edit] Quick edit after reading Ravynmagi's post - not having Netflix is a HUGE HUGE bummer. There's no word on it coming to Honeycomb either, so don't hold your breath[/Edit]
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbeelzebub:
I've had both. the iTampon 2 is riddled with screen problems. I wouldn't pay 500 bucks for it. It does have more apps... but let's be honest..... how many apps do you really need?

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dcc22:
I don't like Ipads. It feels like you are stuck into the app drawer forever.

Sure, there are tons of apps for tablets but everything else is below 10.1 standards.

It starts with the homescreen, over to multitasking abilities and ends in hardware.

And a 4:3 screen is a no go. Every media is made for 16:9 or 16:10, have fun watching movies on that. Ipad2 feels like an ancient TV.

And web without flash? Seriously? That also means no browser games which all are high resolution and made for PC !

Ipads are just for the fancy glamour aspect. The apps look better, for example ebook readers are nicer animated. But I am a purist, I don't want animations around my text, I want a nice and huge display. Why buy 10.1 if half of your screen is used up by showing virutal pages?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scared27:
The fact that Honeycomb doesn't have many good apps and Tegra 2 seems pretty poor overall (poor video/codec playing, maybe be an OS issue though) I would get an iPad. It will just be a smoother/better experience.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SR45:
When people say that the IPad has more apps, I kind of laugh at this.....

Its the quality of the apps, not the number of them. If Android has the apps that I want and are of good quality, than I am happy.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ph8:
I was debating between these 2 devices and in the end I chose the IPAD2. I really wanted to go with Android, but right now its just not ready for "primetime" just yet. I may revisit this when ICS comes out and the Android Tablets and Apps have become more mature. Much like when Android came out, you are goign to ahve to do a lot fo work to get it to do what you want to do. I think the GTAB has great potential, its the OS that holds it back. App conversion\creation has been very slow so far, which is another drawback.

As others have said though, take account of what you want to do with the tablet and what apps you will use. Then go through both tablets and see what will suit your needs. You cant go wrong with either as both have their negative and positive attributes. Whichever is going to fit your needs the best is the one to get, everyone has different needs and wants, so everyone will have a differing opinion.

I can say though that I have not been disappointed with my decision. I still come here and lurk to see what the current state of the GTAB is though as it still sparks my interest and I want it to succeed.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ravynmagi:
My experience is quality has usually been lower on the Android side. Either the Android version has fewer features or is less stable or not even compatible with your device. Fragmentation is a real ***** on Android right now and quality is suffering because of it.

I really don't see an argument for Android having an advantage on the app side. That's going to be the iPad's strong point for quite some time.

But I do agree, plenty of people can find good quality apps that suit their needs and be completely happy.

honeycomb really suck balls! i have to have 3 different browsers installed to do what a normal browser does

firefox to download stuff (if u disagree, try using some other browser to download from filesonic/hotfiles)

skyfire to view flash sites

and the ever temperamental stock browser

why am i able to do the above with any browser froyo/gingerbread but not honeycomb?

typing in username/password is a nightmare, tap a key --> wait for the character to appear --> type the next key.. honestly if u want to try out android, get yourself an android phone, avoid honeycomb tablets for the time being
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lordwinkevin:
ipad has a lot of useful and quality apps compared to the less than a hundred apps that honeycomb offer.

I'm not talking about games because the tablet optimized games that honeycomb/tegra have are awesome but when it comes to apps for specific tasks they have very limited selection and not a lot of them are comparable to the ipad app counterpart.

I'm talking about finance apps like iReconcile for iPad and portfolio apps for photographers.

I have not seen one portfolio app for honeycomb and ipad have a color calibration app made by datacolor called SpyderGallery but non existent on the honeycomb.

I'm just saying that honeycomb might be good for someone that want to do basic stuff on their tablet but if you want a task specific app, the ipad has them and honeycomb desn't have them but doesn't mean they're not going to have them in the future.

I think that we're going to see a lot of apps ported to honeycomb by the end of the year.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beaker2007:
I've played with the ipad & currently own a GT 10.1. For me (& I think Rayvnmagi summed it all up nicely), the two greatest advantages of Honeycomb are media (ability to play Flash & higher resolution video) and the mod-ability (I just bought an Epic 4G -- $30 on Amazon! -- and I haven't stopped playing with ROMs since; something I could never do with my iphone 3GS).

Yes, the apps are decidedly not there. Yes, the keyboard lag is awful when typing in forums, etc. I'm willing to put up with that for now because I know two things: 1) the fellas here at xda are awesome & will most likely come out with a fix in the near future & 2) Google handed out GT 10.1 developer editions to everyone at its developer conference. That can only be a good thing in terms of app development for the GT 10.1.

All that being said, I actually recommended my dad (NOT a techie) get an ipad 2. He's not as tech-savvy, and he's of the mindset that things should just work. The ipad has established itself as a very stable platform that works (usually) without a hitch & I have a feeling if he'd gotten a GT 10.1, he would have had several headaches & never used it.

So, I feel like in the end, it really depends on your usage preference--do you want an established tech with a little bit lower specs or do you want the newer tech with more bugs but better specs?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kponti:
My problem with the tab right now has nothing to do with apps etc etc. That stuff will eventually come, just a little time.

My problem is with lag, video playback issues, and the fact that samsung does not like to update their products to push you to buy new ones. Even if google fixes all the issues currently with the tablets, there is no guarantee samsung will give us that update.

Samsung's flagship phone (galaxy s) has yet to get the ota froyo update. If you send your phone back in for a warranty repair, yes you will receive a refurbed one with froyo or you can get it through kies if you are aware of it's existence. Yet the new $70 samsung exhibit is just a replay of the vibrant but with gingerbread!

I don't know about the other manufacturers, but I don't expect the tab to improve much more than it has now. There will most likely be a new tablet from samsung in the fall to winter season sporting icecream sandwich...if that happens, forget updates!

I laugh at this comment because androids tablets apps are lacking in BOTH QUALITY and QUANTITY. Seriously dude you set ursrlf up for that.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ansextra:
The problem with the iPad is that once you buy into the Apple infrastructure if you buy a decent quality of apps you're locked into them forever unless you want to start over again. Personally I love the flexibility of Android and will never go back to having an iPhone (which I used to have).

When Exchange didn't work with my corporate server with my iPhone I was out of luck. With my Droid X I had the same problem but was able to download Touchdown which works fine. To me, that flexibility makes it more worthwhile to stay with Android and lose out on the over abundance of "fart apps" in the Apple app store.
