[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] paulikxp:
Of course the book cover needs some extra room. But all in all the whole thing is becoming 3mm longer and wider and surely 4-5mm thicker. With the cover the thickness feels like the one of the old Tab.

The cover is alright though not perfect. When I flip the lid to the back it's not staying parallel to the back and feels a bit wobbly. That might change with using it when the folding line becomes softer. If.

What I like is the small amount of additional width, the low weight and that I don't need to put away a thick pouch even if the genuine Samsung leather pouch for the old tab feels like it's saving the contents much better.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] ezynow:
Thanks for you responses paulikxp and scottah.

Gonna get this now - i am sure it will satify my upgradeitis for a year or more !!

If the asus 7" is that cheap price - it lacks 3g (or an extra $80 -$100) and the screen is not going to be as good as the amoled + screen, for media playback at least.

As far as office work / portability goes - for me i think it would be a lot wiser to get the new 11" or 13" pc ultrabook's with an i5 processor rather than a 10" quad core tablet like the prime just yet as the apps are a long way off to being desktopesque for at least a year or two for now.

Hopefully battery life is good on these babys.

Shame about the ir port but you cant beat good old remote controls as you can operate the damn thing one handed and a lot quicker. Two handed touch screen remotes are a bit ott for me. Plus, all my tv,media is wifi networked so i can control these devices with the tab already.

Cheers

Yesterday i fully charged it the previous night night – playing with it most of the day on and off, been on battery for 13:15min (screen on just over 6hrs, heavy wifi usage) and still have 31% left of the battery.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
Yeah this tablet does seem like it's about as close to perfection as you can get today. I can't wait until mine arrives! Very excited :)

As for NTFS, I agree that it is a pain in the ass having to be stuck with FAT32. NTFS support would be so nice! Hopefully we can get some development for NTFS support later...

Thanks for the link to the root guide! However, please use English in the forum (in fact, it's one of the rules)! Thank you! :)

Is there a way to get an official rom preferable this xxkj2? and what are the chances that 7+rom would work if flashed on device?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] maconsultant:
I'd just like to confirm that SimplyElectronics.net is simply not a trust worthy seller and would like to warn anyone who was thinking of buying the 7.7 from them that they should not attempt to complete the purchase. I purchased and paid for my tab on the 4th. I to this day still hadn't received a shipping notice. I got feed up this morning and cancelled my order and was able to get an immediate refund upon threatening to get PayPal claims involved. This is just a heads up to everyone. Trust me they do not have stock even though they confirm having stock, but still couldn't ship my order in 7 days and wanted me to wait another 7 days before they would ship the unit. I am going to try the store in Manhattan that another poster mentioned in an earlier post. Hopefully I can source one in the next couple of hours.

I also noticed that the Splashtop HD version renders colors weird but the regular version does fine. I'll open a ticket with the Splashtop support team. They were good about following up with Bluetooth mouse issues so we'll see what they say about supporting the 7.7.

---------- Post added at 05:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:12 PM ----------

I'm thinking there will be some ROMs available within a month. Flashing a 7+ ROM is probably a sure recipe for brick soup.

Also, I spoke too soon about the IR port on my pre-release 7.7 working. It doesn't seem to have drivers installed. And, when I updated the Peel app it throws an error about the IR port not being present. Here's hoping that a smarter person than me can create a patch from the 7.0+ ROMs to apply as an update to the 7.7 to get the IR port working.

As it is, that Peel app seems kind of limited to TVs and projectors. Since it's an IR port I'm assuming it can be programmed to act more as a universal remote for all IR devices.

When I purchased mine (Hong Kong version) it only comes with British (Hong Kong) 3 Prongs plugs.

---------- Post added at 12:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:33 AM ----------

In sammobile there are two roms available already:

GT-P6810	P6810ZSKL2 ##	3.2	2011 December	P6810ZZTKL2

GT-P6810	P6810DTKL5 ##	2011 December	P6810XSAKL2

Have yet to determine if there are any 6800 Roms floating around the net.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] knoxjon:
Does the Negri version have plugs that work in the US, or do you have to use a converter?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] spridell:
Just got mine from Negri.

Negri shipped it with a free converter.

It is the Hong Kong Version with the Euro adapters.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] knoxjon:
Please forgive my ignorance, but are you saying that they ship it with Euro adapters even to US people - I assume we have a different system in the US, right? and do the adapters work just as well?

And, for that matter, is it just the cord that's different? ie once they start selling them here, can we just get a US cord?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] burhanistan:
The only difference is in the prongs on the AC adapter. That's actually a slide-out thing that's interchangeable for the various regional electrical outlets. I think Negri ships with a cheap little adapter that connects the round two-pole Asian plug with the US plugs and is not polarized. You can use that or simply buy an OEM Galaxy adapter (they're the same from the older 7" to the 10.1") and use that if you don't want the extra bulk of the Asian-US plug adapter. Otherwise, it's all the same.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Dragonn90:
A french citizen who buy a galaxy tab 7.7 here? ^^

I would buy the 7.7 on panamoz.com but i'm afraid by this website and for delivery.

And for all, how does the warranty work? (with Samsung asia directly or not?)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] martynkhill:
I have just purchased a tab 7.7 from Panamoz.com it is the 16GB/3g version I ordered this on Monday 9th Jan. and it was delivered by UPS today. It has a charger that has interchangeable prongs to match your countries electric system. There is a 12 month warranty and it cost £476 or 556 Euros.

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] spridell:
sorry about that,

Yes they included a cheap little adapter just so it would be able to charge.

Probably better off getting one of the OEM chargers from amzon or some cheap place.

Tab 7.7 stock

I used checkfus website (search) to find my stock DTKL5 rom, then checkfus downloader to download and decrypt. You need to know your model number, product code etc exactly. My Product Code was GT-P6810XXXXSA for Australia, you may be able to find codes from another device (eg store demo) or if someone posts here.

Dont know how to odin flash the stock rom on this device yet.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] paulikxp:
Have you also noticed that they save tax and duty with sending from a private adress and with a description of the contents of "stereo equipment parts"?

Anyway, I don't mind, I don't believe we will get a tax invoice...

AT&T LTE SIMs

If anyone is using the unlocked 7.7 with an AT&T LTE SIM, you'll probably need to add an APN to get internet access.

Name: Broadband

APN: Broadband

The other values should automatically populate:

MCC: 310

MNC: 410

APN type: internet + mms + supl

All other settings not set.

Granted, you'll only get 3G speeds but if LTE is in your area then the 3G speeds will be decent (I'm getting around 4Mbps down).

Funny thing was that I only needed to do this when using a SIM from my "Elevate" mobile hotspot. When I popped in my LTE SIM from my phone it automatically set the proper APN. We'll see if AT&T cares.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] NZtechfreak:
I expect they will sort it out, good company and great app.

Interestingly the phone version works fine on the 7.7, and since the phone version now supports up to 1280x800 it's really not a lot different (perhaps better even, since at this size the touchpad mode missing from the HD version is occasionally useful).
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] spridell:
I bought ATT sim card on ebay. Threw $25 bucks on it and works like a charm. It setup everything automaticly.

I am getting about 5-8mb download speeds.

On a side note, I am shocked at how clear and crisp the speaker and ear piece is during phone calls.

SO far after playing with this thing four about an hour this is definetly Samsungs best tablet.

I have owned the 10, 8.9, and original 7 this one kills all of them.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] shinji21:
Just got mine in. Can anyone tell me how to access the LCD test menu to check for dead pixel? (the GS2 *#0*# did not work). Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] martynkhill:
Yes, my package said " sample imaging device, no battery" from Jackie Wong, but as you say as long as there is no tax, who cares.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] ozren:
Would it be safe to flash an 3g Asian rom on my device when it comes out? I am asking since mine was obviously a pre production device.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] burhanistan:
Pretty sure that as long as it's for the 6800 then the ROM will work. The IR port drivers might be another issue. Maybe that can be safely ported from the 7+, although 3.2 might not work for ICS.

Since there's a lot of you guys had the tab 7.7, anybody happen to have asus transformer prime too?

how is it compared between tegra 3 and exynos 1.4 Ghz? how about Mali vs tegra?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] NZtechfreak:
I have both :)

On Honeycomb the Prime's general performance is certainly a bit smoother than the 7.7, but it's not a huge difference.

Not found any particular difference in terms of graphics performance, but that's because there isn't much out there to greatly tax either (would be nice to see whether the 7.7 can handle the Glowball demo, that would be a good test). Will be doing some benchmarks soon and see how they look there.

Screen-wise the Tab blows the Prime away (surprised me a bit because if you see a Prime screen without a 7.7 next to it you'll see that the Prime screen itself is very good in it's own right).

I'm very sad :(

Panamoz (UK) doesn't ship here in Italy.

I really want it
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Raziel_Sicily:
same answer for me from panamoz i hate my country more!

1 boys sameone have bought somethink from this store ? http://www.atgsm.com they have the p6800, is this shop polite or it si scam?

2 no nfts support on gt7.7??? omg how can i see an hd movie then? can i move file greather than 4gb into internal memory? or this memory have the same fat32 limitation?

3 i am worried about the asian recharger, if i put the usb data cable in my pc, it will charge my 7.7? it is possible to charge the 7.7 with the pc usb?

4 can i buy a galaxy tab 10 inches italian charger to charge my honk kong 7.7?

5 is there any rooms that enable nfts on gt 7.7?

thanks for answer xda genius ^^
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] burhanistan:
1. I've not used AT GSM but they appear far more reputable than many other fly-by-night online shops. The fact that their phone number is on display and they take major credit cards is a positive sign.

2. there are programs that can split large video files to get around the 4GB limitation.

3. It probably won't charge just from USB to Tab, you'll need either the stock charger or a charging adapter.

4. Yes, the 10.1 charger works (as well as the old 7" charger). I have all three and they're interchangeable.

5. There seem to be only stock ROMs for the 6810 (WiFi model) available right not, on Samsung's firmware site. I don't think there will be any majorly reworked ROMs for the 7.7 for some time to come.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Raziel_Sicily:
thanks so much for the answer :)

damn it point 2 make me sad :( in the year 2012 there is still not the support for ntfs.. i know that i can split videos, but this is a very depressive think to do :(
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Raziel_Sicily:
boys i have read that in order to allow big files in the micro sd of the p6800 it is possible to format the card wirh ext2 file sistem, it is true? will the p6800 read and write cards formatted in ext2 ? is there any tweak to apply to the p6800 in oreder to let it operates wit ext2 micro sd?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Hairyhippy:
Got my Galaxy tab 7.7 yesterday (in Australia). Really happy with it. The screen is gorgeous and size/weight is just right for my taste. Full HD playback from a network drive over Wifi-N without a glitch.

Is there any hardware differences between models being sold in different countries? I got the official Samsung Australia model from a store-front retailer but a lot of people seeming to be ordering online and getting Samsung Hong Kong models. They are all Exynos 4210 chipsets I hope?

I remember with the Galaxy S2 there were a couple of models with different chipset depending on which country you bought it in. And there was significant performance difference between the two.

Mine does not have any IR port.

Judging from the way things worked out with the launch of ipad2, if this model has a chance they should start selling it NOW. Remember the 10.1 was redesigned when ipad2 came out. If they wait for ipad3 we might not see this model as it is now,perhaps NEVER.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Justin^Tan:
there's no comparison between ipad 3 and tab 7.7

ipad cant make phone calls, ever

and the size is not even on the same class

think of outside US where there's no abundant wifi (more likely 3G or EDGE dependant), and where phone calls does matter, this would have taken ipad out of the picture

never once in my life I imagine having ipad and brought it to some place that have wifi just to hang out and browsing or playing games (i prefer mingling with my friends and talk ^^)

i use laptop at my office, and use desktop pc at home

my original tab solve my mobile phone needs on the go whilst i can function it like an ipad whenever needed using 3G
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] bongski55:
Yes I agree that you cannot compare the 2. Yet there is no denying that ipad set the trend-that is what I meant on my post.

If the tab 7.7 will be available ahead of ipad 3 perhaps for a change SAMSUNG GALAXY TAB WILL SET THE TREND......

Look at ASUS they were also not the first to come out with the netbook but they set the trend on netbooks by coming up with the eee series FIRST. I also would have second thoughts before to buy an ASUS yet when they came up with the eee I have purchased 2 models.

We can argue all day long about this and that device is better than apple's yet you cannot deny that until now the rest of the pack is still playing catch up with apple.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Justin^Tan:
I'm not saying that this is better than apple's or vice versa and yes we all knew the popularity of ipad as a tablet, but imo the original 7 tab already set the trend for tablet/phone, and this 7.7 is the sequel of the tablet/phone trend, including htc flyer, asus eee pad memo (which only God knows when its gonna come out), all tablet that mostly on 7' form factor that can make calls

and fyi, there's 1 laptop manufacturer here in indonesia that copy 7' tab and try to gain the local market for their own brand, and for the 1st time, 7' tab launching held in here manage to made such a long queue like you see on apple store in the US (same thing happened for tab 10.1 too), while for ipad or even ipad 2 launching, there's no such thing ^^

thats why i said to broaden the view outside the US

but for tab 10.1 and 8.9, for sure they were made to catch up with ipad (same genre), and since 8.9 came out so late on the verge of ipad 3 coming, maybe that's why samsung also introducing this series to continue the success of their original 7 tab

i believe that this product gonna still sell well, especially if US provider give the ability to make phone call (like tmobile, who's still struggling to make 3g and voice call happening side by side if I'm not mistaken, that shows how people still want their tab to be able to make a phone call just for the hell of it)
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] bongski55:
See? Now the 7.7 has been pulled out of IFA in Germany. Samsung should start selling the device ASAP
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Justin^Tan:
yeah, just woke up and read my twitter to founf out about that haha

we'll see about that later after the battle against apple finish. but it said only in deutschland that it wont go to retail, so i just keep on crossing ma finger :D

Apple is trying to dictate the market by telling us what we can buy and from whom; they are waving the copyright flag again and suing everyone who appears to be a threat. The real criminals are the people who are making the IPAD clones, why are they not going after them? :(

because those clones dont give a threat at all to apple, while samsung does ^^

with apple pride, why would they want a korean company progressing so well it threatened their glory for past several years

personally i never ever in my life consider having a smartphone/gadget unde samsung brand, htc was my 1st choice, but when i found my completion upon samsung galaxy tab, i did consider samsung now
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] caldeio:
I got my samsung bug with this 23" lcd monitor/tv I got for a deal..169 on ebay. It is my computer and tv screen. 1080 and looks very nice.

Then I had a PSP 2000 with a 16gb card. It got stolen so I wanted something to replace it and time to get something to txt with. It was the gtab or a dell steak 7. I read alot of reviews and decided to get the gtab. :D

Now where just got some samsung washer/dryer set. There like front loaders. Like wow step into the 21st century Caldeio. :p They also put up with the abuse our family gives them no problem.

When the 7.7 comes out, I am for sure going to put it on my wish list. The only way I would not buy it, is windows 8 devices in 7 inch form factor gets released or ps vita android source code gets broken.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] iliveinabucket:
Looks like a great successor to the old GalaxyTab

Though I'll only be happy if we can run Honeycomb on the old Galaxy Tab (which we definitely can)

The thing is, almost every Gingerbread app is optimized for small-screen PHONES, not tablets! You look at your settings app in landscape mode and you see large white spaces covering 2/3s of the screen. The advantage with Honeycomb is having apps built FOR tablets! That's why I'm hoping development for it will continue, despite recent drama.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Justin^Tan:
yeah, the drama lol

its kinda weird though that people already donate on their own with no one forcing them, then placing a guilt just because the development hangs in the air

but i surely do hope that spacemoose is back though

and for windows 8, i'm saving that for my touch laptop :d either samsung series 7 slate, or acer iconia dual screen if they get a newer processor, or just any gaming laptop that can be made touchscreen :D

loving the new windows 8!

Yeap my Antutu screen matches yours exactly except mine has the Build Number "HTJ85B". I did a google search on CPU Hardware part "smdkc210". It is the Exynos 4210!!

Also earlier in the thread someone asked if the "I am Legend" 1080p blueray trailer could be tested. I am very happy to say that it played beautifully with no glitches from my network file server (over the wifi).

I tried ext2, not recognized it wanted to format

I also tried ext4, similar issue

If you format as two partitions eg 4G Fat32 and 12G ext4

Then the system is happy with the Fat32 part of the card, and you can manually mount the other partition somewhere (as root).

I tried the Samsung HDMI adapter with the high-def videos mentioned earlier in the list - works great.

I also tried a generic 4 port otg usb, with usb stick and keyboard attached, also worked well.

When a Fat32 stick was plugged, system automatically added it under /sdcard/extStorages
