I need to do the logcat anyway for the other major issue I am having with the cell radio. I have a video of it screwing up but need to edit out some personal stuff first.

But as for apps the only thing loaded is the google music player from the market. I'm not a big music buff and have no need for all the fancy players out there.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dvigue:
does rooting this tab and isntalling a custom rom make a huge difrence as far as speed and battery life? im interrested in doing it, but want to make sure it is worth it...i know it always has been on my android phones...

thoughts?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] cmscritic:
Personally, I believe it to be an improvement. I'm running Paris v4 rom at the moment and it's exceptionally fast and smooth. I noticed lag when sliding between screens without the rom and it annoyed me enough to try Paris. I would never go back.

Rooting lets you fully use your Tab imho.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dalhoff:
im a new owner too, and i wanna know does the rooting break the warrenty from the seller or can you unroot it if something happends to it ??
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] cmscritic:
It can be unrooted. not sure on the warranty question.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] bhowanidin:
I have always believed in staying stock until rooting and ROM'ing my G2x. The difference was more than night and day; more like the sun and the planet that was, Pluto. I took the plunge with my GTab 10.1 after going through hell with the stock OS. task650 and Phantom's "In Paris" v4 ROM will make you wonder why you didn't do it earlier!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] RMXO:
You are doing your Tab & yourself injustice if you don't root it. :D

Having a Titanium Backup of your apps comes in handy & among other stuff.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] AdamOutler:
This thread has the worst advice i've seen across the entire XDA-Developers website.

DO NOT ROOT UNLESS YOU HAVE A REASON TO ROOT

Rooting allows you to make administrative changes only. This means you have the ability to use it as you would a Linux computer.

You will not get a speed boost.

You will not get magic abilities.

You will gain the ability to completely destroy your tab.

You will gain the ability to run malicious apps to their full potential.

Do not root unless you have a reason to root.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] seh6183:
Hey here's a reason:

Installing a modded rom.

Hows that for a good reason?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] slack04:
Starting a post with a general insult, writing in huge font, and giving no useful information. Over 2000 posts, called "recognized developer," and you're still trolling? Bad form, dude.

+1 for installing a custom ROM. Sure, anyone using these forums should know that rooting won't do any of this for you. But a custom ROM will...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] MMcCraryNJ:
Don't listen to anyone but yourself on this issue. Go to the development section and look over some of the ROMs posted and what they offer in terms of features/improvements. Then read some of the user reviews/comments in those threads, as well as any particular issues any of the ROMs are having. Then take a look at what you can do with root access that you can't without it.

Then I would say use your tab for a few days. If you feel yourself wanting to try out those ROMs or those things that need root, than do it. If your device makes you happy as is and you don't feel like doing it, than don't. That's the best advice anyone can give.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] AdamOutler:
Installing a custom ROM is a good reason, however this guy obviously has no clue what is or what it does.

Recommending that anyone "root" is totally bad information 100% bad information.

Bad information

If someone EVER asks "Should I root"? The answer should ALWAYS be "no".

Remember this line: With great power, comes great responsibility.

Would you give a gun to someone who does not know how to use it? Root has the same potential to destroy your device as a gun has to kill you. Rooting just to "root" is ridiculously dangerous and should never be done.

How many times have you seen someone say "Hey, I've rooted my device, what cool apps can I run"? You don't root your device and then look for things to run.

If someone asks "Should I root my device" and has no reason, the answer is NO! under no circumstances should you root your device unless you have a reason you NEED root capabilities.

Gah... why don't you just tell him to run su;rm -rf / <<never run this.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Tivo7:
I'm not real into Android Dev humor, but I know computers (Windows) almost inside and out. I take it this would be the Android version of the common joke "Delete System32"?

What exactly does that command do, if I may ask?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] seh6183:
He clearly stated in the OP that he has rooted his previous android devices and put roms on them. He was specifically asking if he should with THIS device.

He was maybe wondering if the device is fast enough to not need a custom rom. The answer to his question:

No device is fast enough :-D

And definitely not this one.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] IceCreaMan:
i think I read some post that if you root your tablet that the android market place will not let you purchase movies ... not sure if that is still true or not
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] .torrented:
@OP: I've rooted some other devices and when I picked up this device I was unsure... I finally did it one day after reading and reading and reading and watching a video or two I rooted... I flashed the overcome 1.2.1 rom and it really made a noticeable difference in speed. This was my reason to root my device and its good enough for me and if I damage it then its my fault and I take the hit for it simple enough...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Tdiliplane:
I was in your exact same position a couple weeks ago, try rooting it and flashing " in parisv4" youll love it. Night and day speed difference
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jjdevega:
Edited:I rooted my Gtab so that I can play Hulu and be able to take advantage of the custom roms tweaks like the ability to overclock/underclock. More quality apps on the market like juice defender, Titanium backup, wifikiller, wifitether and so much more when rooted. Yes if your just looking to change the look of your home screen then just go download a launcher. But sine I rooted its hard to go back to stock. Currently I'm using Bindroid v2.0 :D
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] mdt73:
There's no "need" to root. Running ADW allows me to customize the look, and to be honest, I don't get screen lag. People want to run custom roms... great. Does it do anything other than let you feel more in control? Not really. As for Hulu, I don't find myself wanting to watch much that's on there. Now... if you had said HBOGO, that would be a different story.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Panos_dm:
+1. Rooting is considered a toy. But it is very dangerous indeed... I have come acroos apps that can brick a device irreversibly. And, yeah, it voids the warranty, although you can unroot.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] mith2k8:
I was running stock since end of July and then touchwiz... eventually I got bored and needed "a fix" in the form of rooting and custom rom =)

This is a fancy toy so once you get bored I would start looking into root/custom rom. Not before then.. Btw, Task650 & Phantoms In Paris v5 is a very nice rom to start with!
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satishynd:
I'd like install an good ROM ..

I currently downgraded from froyo to 2.1 eclair because foryo drained my phones battery very very fast

I'd like to know which ROM to use to have, like all features of froyo and which would give me two benefits : Low Battery Use and Faster Working..

plz can some help?

i am not much pro in these things..:confused:
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vivekmishra:
First tell me how's your battery on Eclair? I predict you are using the stock eclair. Am I right?

In my view you should use any good modded ROM like Indroid, kyrillos, G3mod etc all these have nice speed + battery backup, our

you could try Destiny ROM as it claims stability and batt backup over performance.

If you prefer stock then try the deodexed stock roms.

As you have specifically mentioned that you are not a pro, there is a possibility that you are getting low batt backup because you haven't calibrated your batt after flashing the new ROM.

I advice you to deliberate the batt or run few cycles of full charge & discharge after flashing any new ROM.

Best of luck..
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] satishynd:
I've just downgraded .. so now currently charging it up .. lets see what happens..

What i hate specifically about eclair is that we can't install apps on sdcard

btw can plz tell.. what is OC version and non-OC version..

I have I5801 .. ie 667mhz phone and no GPU..

which one should i install?

also, if i install like Kyrillos ROM.. will i be able to install Froyo or Eclair back if i want to?
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raja4sure:
OC version is Over-clocked version and Non-Oc is Non-Overclocked version...

In OC version The kernel is tweaked and modified to give a higher performance..

and increase in the CPU freq....(i.e. 800MHz,1000MHz,1200MHz etc)

Non-OC version includes the Same 667mhz cpu freq....

OC gives u better performance as system gets very fast ..but it has its own Disadvantages.....

It's upto you to select OC or NON-OC version.....

If you are happy with the phone response and speed in Its UI then try Non-OC...

and if u want More performance then Try OC one.....

But Read each and every Risks that exists with OC

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1266712
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vivekmishra:
OC= over-clocked

Non-OC= non overclocked

I personally recommend you to flash the OC version, a unlike UN the non-OC version you have an option whether to overclock (eg- 1000 to 1200MHz) or you can just set the max speed close to the default clock-rate (eg-700-800MHz). & If u choose the OC version keep your calm & use the overclocking when you need it.

& yeah you can almost always revert back to your eclair when you wish.

I would also recommend you to use apps2sd by partitioning you're sd-card.

Best of luck :D

I think I will try Ubantu, after that I am not sure if I need to JTAG or UART to flash software that will let me boot up.

I did a TIBU back up of my stock rom, is there anyway to find the info I need from there and if so can someone tell me

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
you need to do some basic troubleshooting, because your post is all over the place. none of these things correlate with each other, and you have not described your actual problem.....

you also havent indicated what 'stock' rom you were on.

2.1? 2.2? 2.3?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gazoo222:
Well I loaded Ubuntu and used Heimdall one-click softbrick, I got my phone to boot up now.

My problem I believe is that my CRC file does not end with RWS or something like that, I think Nick had a post on that issue. that is what I want to look at next. was *#1234#?

I may of had a permission issue with the drivers on XP, I did notice a few errors when loading drivers and running programs.

So now I am crawling through linux learning, I think I will need a .tar.gz file for a sch-i896 that will install original bootloaders, I guess that is a 512 pit file, and stock rom with Heimdall packager or find a way to run Odin packaged roms in Ubuntu.

Any help would be nice.

Thank you.
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Have you cleared the cache from settings/applications/superuser. Go there and clear cache and data there. Reboot and see if the SU app still fc's. That should correct the fc.
[HTC Sensation] flavor76:
sure ... will try that ..

appreciate your reply .
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi

Go into market, search for super user, and you can untick allow automatic updates.

That should stop it until we get a proper fix.

:)

Should I uninstall in titanium and reinstall from market ?
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
If you have 3.0.5 built in, then yes you'd need to use TI. OR flash an earlier version from here:

You have to use the one's with 'efgh' at the end
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Mine was in the ROM and I was able to look it up in the market and untick auto update.

If you UN install it, then install from market, you will have the bad update!

I wish I was at home.

I've got a flashable SU on my desktop.

Maybe you can wait till tonight when i get home...

:)
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
DaDoctor responded in the coredroid thread that the superuser app update is borking a lot of roms and the current fix is to go to the app info on the market and uninstall the UPDATES and that should revert you to the prior version. Or you can titanium restore the prior version, that would work as well.
[HTC Sensation] stfu:
..

same thing with superuser.

problaby.. if i will run Root Explorer.. FC on rootex & superuser.

i am currently on 3.0.5

andy idea how to fix ??
[HTC Sensation] the-Mike_D:
Occasionally I've had problems with superuser also. Maybe an update gone bad or messing with whatever. It's maddening but actually the fix is so simple. Just re-install from recovery the file that you used to get superuser privaledges in the first place. "su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip" It may fail (aborted) once, twice, hell, even took a fifth time before successful for me before but it will eventually work. It's that simple. Just re-superuser yourself with that file and all is well in the superuser world again.
[HTC Sensation] flavor76:

Im currious to see if its the gateway they are pushing LTE devices through?
[HTC Jetstream] mathewpotter:
spent hours on the phone with at&t

this is a problem with the 4g LTE, APN called "broadband". All new 4g LTE enabled devices will now use this.

this network is behind NAT causing the issue.

At&t pretty much told me to pound sand and get a different device that uses a different APN (ie ipad). They were not going to even open a ticket for it.

Not sure what they mean, but I can connect to my office via VPN over 4g without issues. I use remote desktop on my Jetstream frequently and never had an issue.
