[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
I guess it depends on what you mean by sluggish.

1) It takes a while to refresh when booted from "off" or coming out of airplane mode.

2) It'll stutter occasionally moving between screens.

3) Some of the more complex/heavy widgets act funky every once in a while.

4) There's occasional lag in moving around in content heavy individual applications.

For me, 95% of the time, it's smooth and fast to respond and I have every one of the five home pages filled with app shortcuts and widgets. Could it be faster? Sure. For what I use it for it (audio, video streaming, web, newspapers/magazines, e-mail, office apps) it's plent fast. I'm renting a Wi-Fi version from Costco and getting a 3G version from the UK this week. I wouldn't buy it again if I wasn't happy. I also have a SGS2 so I know what fast looks like.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] szetolf:
personally.. i am enjoying it... light and screen's good... i gave up on the stock fw... (maybe until 3.2) and went to "Paris" and loving it...

i dunno about 8.9 or 7.7 tho...

and if you have a tight budget.. maybe the other HC Tabs will be better?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] IceCreaMan:
i say wait, new tablets are coming before christmas... However, in the 2 weeks that i had mine i do like it over the xoom tablet i owned previously. Slowness still affects this sgt 10.1 like it did on my xoom when you start to really use the apps and multitask. I am hoping quad core tablets will solve that issue.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] funcrusher:
I found that just using a different keyboard fixed that.:/
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
For example?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] pcgeek86:
Over the years, I have learned that release dates constantly get pushed back. If they say quad-core tablets will be available during this calendar year, then you can probably bet that they'll be out by April 2012.

I would say go ahead and purchase the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 (or the 8.9" for better DPI). It has its quirks, just to be honest, but nonetheless I enjoy mine.

ps. You HAVE TO GET Dungeon Defenders: First Wave! It's ridiculously fun!

Also, just as an FYI, I spend a lot of time in Google Reader, checking out the latest articles I'm subscribed to via RSS (and liking / sharing them). It makes it really easy to keep up with news, and keeping yourself informed.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] cbpagent72:
They are sluggish. I believe it its the Tegra 2 that makes it so sluggish.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] IceCreaMan:
I guess you haven't been on bgr, but Sammy just released/announced the 8.9 and 7' tablets. Motorola just announced two xoom2 tablets but apparently nothing about their quad core version. At&t announced the HTC jetstream and amazon just announced their tab.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
The 8.9 and 7+ are great for people that want smaller tablets although the tech specs on the 8.9 are identical to the 10.1 so it's not a move forward. And the 7+ will only be interesting if it has the Exynos chip - it's only confirmed to be "1.2GHz Dual Core" which could still be Qualcomm or Nvidia. I had a Jetstream for a week and returned it so I can tell you Qualcomm isn't the key to next generation performance. There's no release date for the Zoom2 and Asus just said the Transformer2 will be out "at the end of the year." If they were imminent we'd have heard. So, basically, there's nothing new performance wise for people that want a 10" tablet this year.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] DaCanes:
Agreed, with Paris and Pershoots kernel running at 1.4GHz. Completely changed the experience.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] hbkmog:
Save the money for the next gen tabs. Tegra 2 blows.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] siggehandf:
I seriously doubt nvidia blows. I think honeycomb is pretty damn horrible and should be replaced as fast as possible. All Android tablets are suffer under horrible software. First off the honeycomb OS, then all the extra crap the companies are adding to it. Gingerbread for the phones is pretty stable and good, honeycomb is just not up to pair with the demands of tablet users.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] .torrented:
Yea I agree with you there ... ICS is said to be coming out soon lets hope this OS will do some justice ;)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] apDroid:
Mine randomly will have a memory leak which causes the garbage collector to run over and over again. I first noticed it because switching home screens was sluggish, and so I checked on logcat to see what was going on. It's nothing a healthy reboot can't fix.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Step666:
The Tab 7.7 isn't a 1.2GHz CPU, it's 1.4GHz and it's definitely not going to be a Qualcomm or nVidia chip, it's one of their own.

Obviously that doesn't necessarily make it an Exynos CPU, it could be some sort of newer model but at least it's not going to be Tegra2.

It's a simple fact that Tegra2 is one of poorest dual-core ARM CPUs on the market just now, there are a number of areas in which it fails to measure up to the competition resulting in generally poorer performance and, somewhat ironically, it has the worst GPU of any dual-core ARM CPU currently on the market.

That said, it was developed before it's competition, so it's to be expected that they would be superior.

The same will be true of Tegra3, it'll enter production before any of the other next-gen chips but there are already a number of areas where the competition's products will better it.

Use Root Explorer. After you navigate to desired folder, if the small button on top right says "mount R/W", then press it. Else, leave it alone and you can copy/replace or whatever..

Here is my pics with otterbox on my phone. Definitely adds to the weight of the phone, but looks and feels nice.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shadow65781:
Looks nice. Where did you buy it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] runtohell121:
Does it block the noise canceling mic? Or is this the one made for AT&T?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jivy26:
Made for AT&T and a friend works for AT&T and gave me one today. So you can get them in there stores.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] runtohell121:
Oh ok. How much are they selling it for?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SPIDERTECH:
If it is made for AT&T then why did I get a reply from Otterbox's twitter account stating that they did not have one for the AT&T version?

I heard from someone else that got one from AT&T and it blocked the NC mic which would mean that it is in fact the international version's case. If you look at the rubber flap that covers the headphone jack, if the hole is in the middle it is the international version.

This is the convo from twitter:

ichigokurosaki Kurosaki Ichigo

@OtterBox Is there going to be an otterbox case for the AT&T version of the Galaxy S II?

26 Sep

in reply to ↑

OtterBox

@OtterBox OtterBox

@ichigokurosaki There aren't any plans as of yet. But we will keep everyone posted!

Also when I went to an AT&T store they told me THEY (as in that store) don't carry the Otterbox for the GS2.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jivy26:
First pic is bottom second is top
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] rquinn19:
Honestly looking at the quality it looks like a fugazy. There's a ton of fake Otterbox's being sold on CL around me and while they're good fakes, if you owned an Otterbox you'd know it was a fake. Can you use the barcode scanner app and scan the barcode on the box? Curious to see what it comes up as (red OB Defender for iPhone 4)?

edit: I take it back now looking closely to the first pics, but I'd still like you to scan the box
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jivy26:
I didn't keep the box. I took a picture of my reciept, but cant show you the whole one since it has my phone number on it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cpenticuff:
I ordered a Commuter from ebay. I guess I will be doing some modding to uncover the extra mic.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] n1nj4dude:
i actually bought this case today and returned it immediately after because the hole and screen protector is for euro model. the hole is in the wrong spot for the us version.

the hole in his picture above is shown on the top middle, where in the us version its on the top backside almost behind the headphone jack
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ngocdao:
I believe although it's not the definite AT&T version... AT&T does carry them and the incipio, which also blocks the 2nd mic too....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] n1nj4dude:
to follow up with my previous post, its nothing short of just cutting the rubber flap off of the otterbox to keep it from blocking the 2nd mic, but i figured if i was going to spend alomost 40$ on a case i want one made for my phone
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jivy26:
Paid 25 for it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] n1nj4dude:
cool story bro
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] herr kartoffelkopf:
I bought the ballistic case for my Galaxy S 2. It had a better feel than Otterbox to me....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] nnvpears:
Is there an in store ETA? I purchased the one for the international version mistakenly from Otterbox and would like to get the correct one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] phonic:
Called my local AT&T store, and they do not have any (International or otherwise) in stock. So I figured WTH, I'll order the Int. version from Amazon. I can always make the tiny mod to open up the mic slot a bit if necessary. It was $24.08 shipped from Amazon, but here is where it got weird...

When I went to the final checkout page, it defaulted to Standard shipping, with the price at $0. The other three options were:

Free 2-Day with Prime Trial (not a member)

Two-Day Shipping

One-Day Shipping

So, I wanted to see how much 2-day was, so I selected it. Page reloaded, shipping price stayed at $0. Selected 1-Day, page reloaded, price stayed at $0. I went back and forth, and the price didn't change for shipping (FREE!). So I took a screenshot and submitted my order. Order confirmation on their site and email show:

Item(s) Subtotal:	$24.08

Shipping & Handling:	$0.00

-----

Total Before Tax:	$24.08

Estimated Tax To Be Collected:	$0.00

-----

Grand Total:	$24.08

Very weird, never happened before. Has something like this happened to anyone else? Looks like I got free overnight shipping!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cliffgardner:
I just received a response from Otterbox customer support (3 minutes ago) stating that they do not have one specific to the AT&T version and do not plan to make one at the moment.

I would like to see one though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] justabrake:
there is no ballistic case for AT&T

there is no otterbox for AT&T

AT&T has case-mate on there site but when you visit case-mate site it's not for the sprint epic it says, but for the international and canadian phones only no mention of AT&T either.

sizes of these phones

AT&T 126 x 66 x 8.9 mm

International 125.3 x 66.1 x 8.5 mm

i'm trying to find a case myself for the AT&T version

Is it possible to increase the number of voulme increments?? at the moment i understand there are 15 increments, but when playing music, especially at low volumes, the different in increments can be too much, i.e too quiet, up one increment = too loud.

Is there a quick fix to make the volume more 'smooth'??

Hello All,

I have always wanted an all in one clock/weather/forecast widget and was wondering if anyone wanted the same. Here is my very rough mockup, but is basically the miui flipclock with extra panels to display the date above, and the weather underneath. Would anyone be interested in this?

Also, would anyone be able to walk me through what would be needed to get this working. I am very much a novice, but am willing to try.

Thanks,

Im Having Hell trying to unlock my boot loader

S1tool Says "SEMC Simlock certificate"

I have flashed stock rom and rooted

But when i use the tool it says getting root rights and then Access denied shows and the program ends any ideas :confused:

PS. Also im wondering seein as the bootloader is unlocked is it possible to potrt the Insertcoin kernels and roms from HTC as they look smashing just wondering

Thanks
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B.Jay:
Well, the Bootloader unlock thread says:

"If the simlock certificate specified is SEMC SIMLOCK CERTIFICATE, or anything other than NOT RECOGNIZED SIMLOCK CERTIFICATE, jump to step 3." - which means you have to skip step 2c

From step 3 onwards you need to READ the instructions carefully as at step 5 you have to, for example, skip step 5a

It's not exactly easy to perform, but I think the instructions are rather clear if you read what's written there and assemble intel to be able to make your way through the course of steps.

If you fail to follow instructions and chose the wrong path for your particular phone it's likely that it won't work or that you end up with severe problems.

Hello

I've done the work and the new OTA update "OTA Sagas HTC Europe 2.10.401.4" in the version of "Saga RUU HTC Europe 1.47.401.4" integrated.

This ROM is unaffected and has no extra stuff, except that it works with the old HBOOT!!! Nothing was removed or changed, FULL UNTOUCHED (see "Only changes")!!!

Here's my pre-rooted ROM-Base (Flashable over CWM):

PreRooted_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.4_deodexed-signed

MD5: 5284c44fdd64b4e997a0c7c4027f5186

PreRooted_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.4_odexed-signed

MD5: 79a85cb20f5cd4428d7feee406cee621

Only changes:

Boot.img (2.6.35.10-g9ac6c7a), WiFi module was changed and services.jar, so that it works with the old HBOOT and has init.d support.

- services.jar is responsible, so the ROM can work with the old HBOOT -

Notes:

Another kernel can be flashed, which may services.jar will not change, otherwise the new HTBOOT is required.

Extras:

Original Kernel and WiFi-Module

MD5: 878cd8fbd125271b206016657d47640f

Credits:

- boot.img, bcm4329.ko, services.jar - thx proxuser

[HTC Desire S] skumara:
Is the controversial HTClogger.apk deleted in this ROM?
[HTC Desire S] zeekiz:
If it hasn't it can very very very easily be removed by either ADB after you install the ROM, or deleting from the zip file.
[HTC Desire S] lavier:
Can some1 tell me how this ROM can be flashed

Can it be done through CWM Recovery as Update.zip
[HTC Desire S] michaelm_007:
@lavier

Flash this ROM over CWM, I think it works.
[HTC Desire S] heavyhms:
This one is for the old Desire (Bravo) or Desire S (Saga)?

If is for Saga is better to use the odexed or deodexed version to change via UOT Kitchen the battery indicator?
[HTC Desire S] michaelm_007:
@heavyhms

I changed my first post was a little confusing :eek:

This ROM is for the Desire S (Saga). Deodexed version is for the UOT-Kitchen. Odexed version is faster.
[HTC Desire S] heavyhms:
Thank you... it's also possible to use the odexed version with UOT:i have successfully esported and modified my framework-res from my original stock 1.47 rom

Quoting from UOT Site:

[cut]

Support for stock odexed roms

[cut]

The "original kernel and wi-fi module" is the unmodified version for new hboot only?
[HTC Desire S] slvrbllt:
Sorry mate, but your post is still a little bit confusing:

o Can I flash your ZIP without any modifications to the existing HBOOT ?

o If the Original Kernel is included as "Extra" what is included into the "untouched" ROM then ?

o Which HBOOT does the Original Kernel require ?

A clarification on this subject would be pretty much appreciated! :-)

Cheers.

UPDATE: I've flashed the ODEXED version on my Revolutionary S-OFFed HBOOT (6.xx) and the device stuck at white HTC Logo.
[HTC Desire S] michaelm_007:
@slvrbllt

Added changes and the why.

Boot.img (2.6.35.10-g9ac6c7a), WiFi module was changed and services.jar, so that it works with the old HBOOT and has init.d support.

services.jar is responsible, so the ROM can work with the old HBOOT
[HTC Desire S] dmatik:
Original kernel?

So, if I have the new HBOOT, what do I do with the following, to have original kernel?

Just put inside the ZIP before flashing, in the correct folders?

Thanks in advance.
[HTC Desire S] heavyhms:
After flashing (with full wipe) odexed rom (right md5) i have the phone freezed to white htc screen.

Revolutionary HBoot and lastest radio (from OTA)

i'm coming from a original 1.47 stock rom (rooted); according to 4EXT recovery i have EXT4 filesystem
[HTC Desire S] michaelm_007:
@dmatik

I think you'd have to change anything. I myself have no Desire S :o

@heavyhms

Can you delete the services.odex in your ROM (before you flash) and tell me if it runs then.

After flash, use ADB-shell:

# adb shell mount /system

# adb shell rm system/framework/services.odex
[HTC Desire S] heavyhms:
I'm sorry, but for next 3 days i cant'use my pc (i don't have administrative rights on this computer and i cannot install android toolkit and adb) :(

for now i've restored a nandroid backup
[HTC Desire S] michaelm_007:
@heavyhms

Which OS do you use? In Win XP and Win 7 is a zip program installed. Open the ROM and delete the services.odex (folder: framework). When you flash, unselect signature verification.
[HTC Desire S] VLADSLAYER:
bcm4329.ko from PreRooted_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.4_deodexed-signed its same as the one from Original Kernel and WiFi-Module
[HTC Desire S] heavyhms:
Yes, md5 of "bcm4329.ko"is the same (odexed, deodexed and Original Kernel and WiFi-Module).

@ michaelm_007 maybe you don't have inserted the file patched for old hboot on rom zip? Can you check?
[HTC Desire S] dmatik:
I flashed the deodexed version, and it was successful.

Everything works just fine and smooth so far.

But I cannot download anything from the Market. It started downloading my apps automatically and stopped at some point, after that nothing can be downloaded anymore.

The market also updated by itself to the new one, maybe this is the reason, I don't know.

I already tried to clean its data, tried to download something FREE... nothing helps.

Any suggestions?

[HTC Desire S] caravanquello:
nice work so far, but your rom has still the old market v.2.3.6, the OTA Update contains v.3.1.5

flashed the deodexed version with the new hboot, no problems here. But why no version for the new Hboot, it makes Sense Roms much faster?
[HTC Desire S] michaelm_007:
@caravanquello

In the OTA update is the old market 2.3.6 include. I've made ​​no changes :confused:

Show here for new hboot version.
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
There is no need to install the Android SDK to run adb. Check the link in my signature (the adb one)

After flashing the new radio you have to format your /cache partition from the recovery to have the phone back in normal operation. This happened to almost everybody that flashed it. (you can check the other guide in my sig if you haven't manage to flash the odexed version yet.
[HTC Desire S] caravanquello:
mh, thought some news-sites wrote the update contains also the new market version.

[HTC Desire S] Mafia_Boss2007:
Can we have a real untouched version that is running with new Hboot.

I can't understand why all the peaople are stying straight on the old HBoot when the new update require the new HBoot. Ther is no negative effect to have the new hboot.

We would have a lot less problems when we could use the 2.10.xxxx as they are.
[HTC Desire S] zeekiz:
There is also no negative effect from using the old HBOOT. Just because the new HBOOT is shiny and new (WOW UNICORNS RAINBOWS AND FAIRYFLOSS), doesn't mean its always better.

I'm running a personal build of this ROM, and I'm finding it hard to break. Quadrant score of 2400, no lag, perfect performance.

@Mafia_Boss2007

Show here
[HTC Desire S] Mafia_Boss2007:
You did'nt understand the Problem. The new 2.10.xx was build for the new hboot. All the people changing the original software to match requirements that where old.

I could have a running system with the original 2.10 and proberly less bugs than a modifyed 2.10 to match old requirements and more bugs.

I hop now you can understand my question for a clean 2.10 that was coming fom HTC.

And i think you change you Radio also all the time? Why not the HBoot?
