[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] djchad72:
Well, the Tab10.1 does not matter. The 16gb and 32gb is fully available for apps and media. Its not like most phones were you only get 1gb or less for apps.

The part about SD Card and Tablets with SD card that im talking about is this:

Step 1 install app

Step 2 run app, setup, and use

In a phone, most apps will write to the internal root or /sdcard for its setup data. In a tablet, like the Asus Transformer, the 'internal' storage is a 16 or 32GB drive path is /sdcard. The removable external is under /removable and most apps write to /sdcard which is internal. What this means is most apps cant take advantage of the /removable. Mybackup Pro for instance would not let me write to the /removable path only /sdcard. So a hard reset wipes my backups out.

So conclusion here is, sdcards on tabs are great for standard media, but not HD media or app usage. When i first started using my Asus 2 months ago, i bad to email all sorts of apps that could not find my A) media B) let me navigate to /removable to save or open files, and C) set a default or setting location in /removable. So other than media, the SD card has no value. Who know how itll show up via the USB adaptor?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Entropy512:
Because the other way to look at it is:

32GB for $500 vs. 80GB (16GB internal + 2x 32GB sticks) for $500. 48GB of extra memory isn't something to laugh at.

I don't play directly from USB storage - the internal memory is enough for many hours of HD video, so I can watch a few hours of video, then spend 5 minutes swapping files.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoox0616:
Anybody encountered the similar problem as I did? After updating to 2.3.4, there is a bug annoying me a lot. The stock flash player is 10.1. I updated it to 10.3 in the android market. The updating seems to be successful. However, after a few days, the flash player would turn back to 10.1 again, and the market would again remind you to update to 10.3. Even if I updated again, same thing would happen a few days later. I'm using an international Atrix, unlocked with Bell sbf, and installed Orange build of 4.5.2A-11_OLE-7. Thanks a lot.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darktranquility18:
Aite so i was running stock 3.1, then flashed poitees kernel and couldnt charge the tab when it was off. Then i flashed pershoots kernel and i still had the charing problem as well as now when i plug in the tab to my pc, nothing happens. Just charges. The tab doesnt show 'usb connected' and that 'kies' screen doesnt pop up. Running windows 7 64 bit. Got all the drivers for it. Tried on my laptop and other desktop as well. Just charges. Flashed back t ostock. Charging when off is fine but USB still doesnt work :S

Any suggestions?

With data from network I can identify the location instantly. However, if I uncheck "Use wireless network", I have never located myself on Googles Maps. Is it a defect on the GPS?

Thanks in advance!
[LG Optimus Black] lesp4ul:
Google maps doesn't includes world map installed, it only store some caches.. you still need network to download map data & network based location, GPS is used for more accurate result & yes it's true p970 gps is not so good.
[LG Optimus Black] jackkwan:
Thanks for your help! In fact, I already have cache of Google Maps, then turn off the wireless connection, to figure out the performance of the GPS alone. It sucks!

BTW, I used HTC Touch before and its GPS could identify the location very quickly.
[LG Optimus Black] quyTam:
have you test with the GPS fix (in hidden menu) ?
[LG Optimus Black] mihaiolimpiu:
Actually you are wrong, GPS in very good in OB.

I used it for a trip of 700 KM and it has difficulty only the first time when it aquires a position (this is normal if you don't use AGPS) like 3-4 minutes...

On the road I turned off GPS by simply locking the screen (IGO8), and on relaunch the GPS position will not take more than 30 seconds. I don't have any data on my contract so it was purely GPS!

The first time it's normal to take a very long time because a large number of sattelites have to be aquired to for pin-point accuracy. Afterword I think it works with 2-3 visible sattelites!

My previous phone was a HTC Diamond, and it was exactly the same if I dind't used the GPS app every day that downloaded sattelites in advance.
[LG Optimus Black] ziiljuks:
It works but it's slow (as it should be). For me it's around 1 minute in hidden menu. Best place for testing outside hidden menu is Compass app (If you don't have data connection for maps)

For hidden menu:

1. Go into the LG hidden menu (3845#*970#)

2. Go into GPS Test

Test it (you need activated GPS of course)

if it's really slow, try this (I think it's if you use network to pinpoint but everyone is suggesting it, so I will too)

1. Go into System Settings

2. SULP Setting -> SLP Server Setting

create new:

Nokia (slp address: supl.nokia.com, port: 7275, no cert and no TLS setting)

If it still doesn't work, try other variants (LGE SUPL, Spirent, etc).
[LG Optimus Black] jackkwan:
Thanks everyone!

It works now! The. GPS is quite sensitive!
[LG Optimus Black] Irochk:
In the gps test in the hidden menu, there's not such option as gps fix.

Me too, I'm interested in using my gps without the assistance of the network cells. I've already tried the three supl servers and it doesn't seems to work for me. So, if someone knows how to use it without network assistance I'll be really grateful.

Thanks in advance.
[LG Optimus Black] masterthor:
It should work out of the box.. afaik, you don't need to mess with the SLP servers unless you are using some sort of assisted GPS mode (with wifi or 3g connection). I'm using it straight out of the box (after installing the fresh firmware) and it works normal in the car (1-2 minutes first fix, a couple of seconds for any other subsequent fix). Getting a first fix while on foot does take a bit longer, but that's true with all the other non-android devices I've had. the OB has normal (no more, no less) sensitivity when it comes to GPS.
[LG Optimus Black] explor3r3:
i think there it`s a problem in OB mine has problems with gps too , and already o try`d all kind of apps and even use the gps standalone from the fresh new update soft and nothing , fix the gps for the first time and after then i can`t travel with standalone gps

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mermaidkiller:
In order to allow symlinking I want to format the internal 11GB /mnt/sdcard to ext3.

One way is backupping everything to a laptop over USB, then reformatting it from Linux by gparted (or Disk Utility from Mac OS with Macfusion ext3 plugin) . So far so good.

But then remounting it on the SGS2 will probably issue an error as Android does probably not automount it.

Is the only way rooting it and then edit /etc/fstab if that exists on the device ?

Who knows ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vortex-:
Hi,

how did you manage to partition the internal memory?

I too am trying to reformat it, but gparted shows the partiton as "unallocated". The external SD card also appears as "unallocated" in gparted when the phone is connected through the USB cable.

I can access all the files from the internal/external "cards" though.

PS: I'm using a Galaxy W, sorry for posting here but I couldn't find a specific section for my phone.

PS2: I found /etc/vold.fstab (there is no /etc/fstab), and the partitons are mounted like this:

-------------------------------------

## Format: dev_mount <label> <mount_point> <part> <sysfs_path1...>

## label - Label for the volume

## mount_point - Where the volume will be mounted

## part - Partition # (1 based), or 'auto' for first usable partition.

## <sysfs_path> - List of sysfs paths to source devices

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard 28 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.2/mmc_host/mmc1

dev_mount sdcard1 /mnt/sdcard/external_sd auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.4/mmc_host/mmc2

------------------------------

So no references to the file systems used, maybe the mount should work after reformatting?

My personal preference is for dolphin, I've tried pretty much all.

Dolphin ain't perfect but its pretty good and offers good speed a nice UI and a desktop like browsing experience.

Opera second for me, fast and stable but not much of a fan of it's looks.

Stock browser is adequate and pretty quick but well overrated by some on here (no way does it "kill" the competition tbph).

Miren was quite nice but buggy.

Xscope hated the interface and themes didn't work (for me). Not a fan.

I really can't tell if there is a speed difference between stock and Opera. Don't like Dolphin and haven't tried Xscope.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SBS_:
In my opinion the stock browser is much faster than all the others available, although I find Opera to be the best of the rest so to speak. You will not notice this speed difference on mobile sites, but heavy desktop sites with lots of content are much smoother in the stock browser.

With dynamic text reflow and better tab managment the stock browser would be just about perfect.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godutch:
I want a tabbed browser, so opera and stock are out; dolphin, xscope and miren all have real tabs, of those miren has the best interface and dolphin the worst, I especially like miren's way of hiding and showing controls with a easy swipe, I don't like remembering all the different gestures needed for dolphin, xscope is sort of in between, it looks a lot like chrome, which is good, I don't like the wat you have to press thre menu button to show the controls but otherwise controlling it is fine. Out of all the tabbed browsers however xscope renders fonts much better at smaller sizes, so you can zoom out more and read more of a page without scrolling. So I use xscope and it's almost as fast as stock browser too (about 0.5% or 5-6 points out of around 955 point slower in peacekeeper)

You gotta add Dolphin HD to the list.

I like the stock browser, but it is sometimes gimped when you flash a custom ROM.

I've tried Xscope, Opera, and Dolphin. I like Dolphin the best. Opera is nice, but I don't like the way it renders text when fully zoomed out. I don't like the layout of Xscope nor the controls.

Dolphin is fast. I like the Speed Dial home page. I like the double-tap zoom in / zoom out feature. I like swipe left for bookmarks, etc. and swipe right for add-ins, etc. The only thing I don't like is the prompt to clear history and cache when I try to back out of the app.

People seem to like the stock for the hardware accelerated support no other browser gets however some browsers do have their perks. Feel free to check that thread out and make your decision. And there's no harm in keeping more than 1 browser.

I tried almost all browser I found on the android market

BoatBrowser is the best in terms of UI and ease of use + easy desktop useragent switcht

* Stock is very nice but I do not like the way some parts of pages seems redrawn when scrolling.

* I like Dolphine MINI but hate dolphine HD. MINI is light and fast. HD is slow and heavy.

* Opera Mobile for smooth scrolling, very well implemented continuous text reflaw while pinch zooming in and out, ability to save to another location than /sdcard/download + does not redownload images when choosing to download, it uses its cache -> save image is instant + allows desktop useragent + I feel the way OperaMobile displays images is cleaner than other webkit bases browsers (Stock, Dolphin, Boat). Opera Mobile has its own rendering engine + Supports tabbed browsing.

I was not able to determine the fastest one, they all perform well on ths SGS2

So for me, Opera Mobile is default browser. And I manually launch Stock browser if needed.

That's my 2cents :)

If you have more than 1 browser on your SGS2, do you need to set one as the default, and if so, how do you do that?

I've downloaded third party browsers on Symbian devices and they just show up as separate icons in the menu, so I'd basically choose which browser to launch each time by pressing on the respective icon. Therefore, I don't quite follow this concept of a "default" browser.

Oh yeah, something else...the stock browser seems pretty slick,

except

pinch-to-zoom is not available on every webpage. In fact, some webpages cannot be zoomed in/out, either by pinch or double-tap. It just renders to a preset (fixed) zoom level. Is that a Touchwiz issue or a browser issue?
