We can have better ports like ICS

USB OTG,etc,etc...
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] addak:
than why doesnt somebody port it!!! like freexperia team!!!!!!!!! this suc.ks!!!

It's the second time today that I have to ask you to watch your language.

There won't be a third time.

If it were easy, it would have already been done. Either help the developers do it, or wait patiently and be grateful of what has been accomplished already.

oh ok whatever u say.........................ok at least they can make ics for locked boot...so u mean that its impossible to put .32 kernel for x10 right???? am sure

Hey pal if u want to get. 32 kernel to work so much try doing it yourself rather than complaining that someone hasn't done it for u already. Ps hey iris nice to see your moderation skills :-)

[Continuum General] coreybrah:
because i have no shame, i'll admit it. this is my second root ever. first was on my droid 2 r2d2 to remove the crap that wasnt necessary.

using this tutorial, just google samsung continuum froyo, and its on addictive tips. I followed the directions properly.

Basically, I used odin3 with a custom froyo rom, i did everything correctly, and i began to use titanium backup to remove some bloatware. what i removed was the GO Launcher stuff and now my homescreen is just a black screen. I've tried using recovery mode and restored that way. i've done that 10+ times. i cant get to any apps, only pressing the bottom ticker to access my text messages and notifications slide down bar. thats it. no apps. at all. can someone tell me how to revert back to the original software? then i will re-root again and this time NOT remove anything. or someone can show me properly how to remove it.

thanks. itll help a lot!
[Continuum General] asellite:
Go launcher (in most roms for the continuum) the ONLY launcher installed so when you got rid of it with TiB you screwed the whole UI. Try booting into Recovery wipe data fact reset wipe cache. then reboot. pull battery reflash on odin, make sure repartition is unchecked. let it reboot. should be back to normal.
[Continuum General] coreybrah:
can you explain that in a different way. i tried wiping in recovery mode it didnt work
[Continuum General] asellite:
Are you using <2e> recovery (samsung stock) or CwM?
[Continuum General] pattielipp:
You removed the launcher, this is why. You probably deleted a file called TouchWiz30Launcher.apk

You have a few options now, do you have CWM installed? If so go download another rom, put it on your sdcard some how then install it. It will save you much time and you don’t have to remove the bloat as it’s already removed.

If you aren’t familiar with CWM(clock work recovery) I would suggest researching it s you will be dealing a lot with it.

I would recommend reflashing via odin so that you have all files again. If you want to get rid of bloat, install nuckin or eco07-clean they both are good basic roms. I am currently working on a rom which is called miunia it is as minimalistic as I can make it. It is still in beta forms but it can be installed through odin. If you want the launcher I suggest flashing one of mine for the time being..

yea i have clockwork mod, and i did remove that. i dont know what to do honestly im rerooting to see if that will work.
[Continuum General] coreybrah:
thanks everyone, i think i fixed it. never thought to reroot it, i really appreciate it, xda is a great place to go for help and to learn.
[Continuum General] pattielipp:
if you deleted the actual file, just rebooting the phone won't fix the issue. you will have to replace the launcher or factory reset.
[Continuum General] Txwolf1980:
For future reference, another option is to get on android market from your computer and download a launcher. It will send it to your phone and install automatically. Then, when you hit the home button, it should run the launcher.

Hi Guys,

[Samsung Infuse 4G] shaunleger:
Can someone help me understand how CyanogenMod works? Let me explain.

I thought CM was a ROM. But CM exists for all kinds of devices, so there must be multiple versions of CM. Based on AOSP, it gets ported to multiple devices. But somehow these versions include "upstream" changes. How does that work?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] LinuxBozo:
You kind of explained it yourself really. It's based on AOSP. Which means, there is a set of source code that defines common functionality. It gets ported to multiple devices via inclusion of hardware specific drivers and kernels so that the device functions correctly when the common bits call the driver to perform certain tasks, like draw the screen or vibrate for instance. So, the upstream changes are changes to the common functionality, like for instance, a new lock screen.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] shaunleger:
I work in I.T., let me see if I can make a comparison here.

AOSP is like a retail Windows install disc. But you can't just download a generic Windows image and put it on a computer. You need drivers, etc. for everything to work.

CM7 is like a Windows image with all the correct drivers already installed (like an OEM restore CD).

Does that sound right?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] LinuxBozo:
It's a close enough comparison.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] shaunleger:
Thanks for taking the time to help me understand. Loving CM7, by the way

A the title says Asus announced a quad core Nvidia tegra 3 tablet ,

http://www.engadget.com/2011/10/19/asus-jonney-shih-unveils-transformer-2-at-asiad/ personally if I get icecream sandwich I won't upgrade . What do you think ?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Tivo7:
Quadcore....tempting...

But I agree, if we get ICS, I'm stickin to Gtab.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] RMXO:
like you I'm very tempted esp after seeing the pics of the new Transformer Prime. If I don't do an impulsive purchase, I'll wait to see if Samsung is going to release a Quadcore GTab.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Picard_8525:
If it's thinner, lighter and price-wise = or cheaper than the GT then hell yeah! :D

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] UKseagull:
Maybe in a year or two, but I don't feel the need to update just because there's a newer faster Tablet on the horizon. I bought my Tab for what it's capable of doing right now.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] hoss_n2:
On the emulator they found the tablet interface so ICS IS DESIGNED FOR TABLETS ALSO see the vudeo on engadget
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
Who wouldn't like a faster processor? They're just planning to launch a 3G version of the Transformer I this month and it'll only have a HSPA 14.4 modem. I (finally) got my new 3G Tab from the UK yesterday. It's got a different display, pulls 8GB down on AT&T, and the KH3 ROM vastly improves screen responsiveness and transitions. Hardware's just one part of the equation. Samsung's audio and video codec support is second to none. If I abandon ship, it'll be to a quad-core Samsung Tab.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] hoss_n2:
What do you mean by a different display. Aren't all galaxy tab 10.1 uses samsung super PLS display
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Tivo7:
I could care less about the display honestly
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
I'm still setting up the new Tab. Once I'm done I'll post the differences between it and the U.S. Wi-Fi version I've been using. The display's definately different. Maybe they updated it because of the Newton rings. When you look at it from the side, you can see a very subtle texture under the glass. Also, the color temperature is cooler and colors aren't as exagerated. It's a definite improvement (to me). The back has also been changed. It's now solid black with a soft-touch coating vs. the metal-esque grey plastic of the Wi-Fi version. The UK 3G Tabs were received by resellers last week and have an October build date.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] wpghtc:
If the build quality on the quad core is the same as the reg TF, then NO. The TF is a crappy product. The Tab is much more refined.

Putting a Turbo charged engine in a lawnmower doesn't make it a porsche.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
Too funny...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] foxmeister:
The build quality on my TF is perfectly fine - it is in no way a crappy product.

In my opinion, the TF is a different class of product to the Galaxy Tab 10.1, which is a definitely a "purer" tablet experience, and in general I do prefer my GT10.1 over my TF.

However, when I go on vacation next week, I will probably leave my GT10.1 at home, and take the Asus TF with dock instead because of the advantages the dock brings.

If the new TF can bring the tablet experience of the GT10.1, with the flexibility of the TF dock, I'm sold.

Dave

I have got the uk 3g here in Egypt from Vodafone official store and I liked the black back allot :D more valuable than both metallic and write backs, thanks for your reply and wating for your comparison between the two versions
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
I wouldn't call it "crappy" but I'd say it's pretty average. I looked at all the tablets before buying the G-Tab and none of them were as refined h/w wise. The Transformer's I played with all creaked and the display wan't as good as the G-Tab. Friends have Transformer's and some have had to either exchange them or send them in for service for various h/w issues. (And I know, the G-Tab has Newton rings but it hasn't effected my two or those owned by friends.)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] _delice_doluca_:
is it not scaring any of you that quad cores are coming so fast.. it means google and the manifacturers did not even give their tablets a year to sit on their thrones (not even a half year for many ones).. it gives me the fear of being outdated "abnormally fast" (please mind that statement=abnormally fast) no matter what i buy... and now there is the risk for our tegra 2 tablets not to get ICS.. it also scares me to be outdated easily again.. i mean, if the biggest rival apple is still caring about their iphone 3gs even after 2 more new models, what manifacturers are doing sounds so nokia-ish (like giving birth to many children but not caring about their growing).. is it not?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Taskman:
No plans on switching. Waiting for ICS update and I will be happy.

Regarding TF201 I don't really fancy the "rings" used on on the back and the bezel that is big. But it got better battery with the dock (hence the big bezel).

Love my Galaxy Tab and wouldn't trade it for a Transformer.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] DatterBoy:
The tab I want next is based on these factors:

- form: how thin and portable is it

- display: must be vivid and sharp, no les than samsung quality

- expansion: absolute must. itis the single place the STab failed on for me

- price: has to be market price or better, no first adopter prices please

- processor: the more powerful a processor you get, the less likley you will need to upgarde for a longer term

I will hold no loyalty to a brand, but some brands do things better insome areas than others. For now, the Asus pad, at least visually, looks pretty sweet.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] biggiestuff:
If the quad/tegra3 can play my 1080p mkv content off my portable hard drive while connected to a HDTV with the HDMI cable plugged in then I'm sold.

As of right now when I bring movies home to my parents for my dad to watch I still have to use my bulky laptop. I got the tab in hopes I could decrease my travel weight. Alas I've only added as now I bring my tab AND my laptop.

So sad.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
Would you use a screw driver to set a nail? I get what you're trying to do but tablets are primarily consumption devices, not media hubs. There's a multi-billion dollar market for devices designed primarily for what you're trying to do. Maybe a better SoC will help, but the rest of the componentry, including 1GB of RAM, is still going to be an obstacle. At the end of the day, a phone's a phone, a tablet's a tablet, a PC's a PC, and a server's a server. You're not going to find any device, espcially for $500, that'll replace them all any time soon.

NVIDIA is maybe ready to put quard core on the map, price but as of now, and most software is just catching up to dual. It will take a long time for the market to adjust and so on.

And I love the screen on the gt... wouldn't trade that for anything!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] player911:
Having picked a TF over a Grab... I have to say I am very satisfied in Asus through their constant software OTA updates. Asus already announced ICS on the original transformer before years end and the Transformer Prime is suppose to be the first ICS tablet.

Very impressed. Sure the unit creaks occasionally but overall is a win with price, removable storage, and docking options. Unfortunately the original TF is so good that I won't be upgrading as it does everything I want flawlessly already.

Just something to keep in mind when shopping. I wish all device manufacturers supported their devices like Asus.

I have not been impressed with my GT's tegra 2 performance and I have not been impressed with any tegra 2 tablet that I have played with so I might wait a bit on the tegra 3.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] IceCreaMan:
Same here, I had the xoom first and now a gt10.1 and performance wise they are both the same. However, I will wait until moto or Samsung releases a quad core before moving on.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] HybridHB:
Id like to see multiple offerings before deciding on one, but id really like to see a thin sammy with a super amoled+ display and expandable memory.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] atoy74:
I'd consider an upgrade only after I see how ICS runs on the current gen of tablets. ICS supports GPU acceleration so I'm hoping for a smoother experience.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] btmec:
Yes I will change to the Asus. We got an Asus for my son when they first came out. I think it is a great device. I got the tab because it was thinner and lighter. If Asus makes one just as thin I will take it. I don't even care if it is dual core. Asus has been great with updates and they give a more pure Android experience. I will be ordering one as soon as they are available.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Itaintrite:
If it has a design as good as the Galaxy Tab, then I'm getting the next-gen TF for sure. If not... I'll just wait for the next Galaxy Tab :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Croak:
If they learned the lessons of the original Transformer (with a very high defect return rate), and the build quality is there, it's on my short list.

After four months with the Tab 10.1, I am getting less and less impressed with its build quality. Plastics are not wearing well, creaks are multiplying, screen is lifting, prone to Sleep of Death, and after sending it in for warranty work and getting it back with nothing changed but a firmware flash, I am not a happy camper.

That's over and above my general dissatisfaction with Tegra 2, which wasn't Samsung's fault, and they were stuck with that SoC.

Keep in mind, I'm a huge Samsung fan. My monitors are all Samsung. My televisions are Samsung. My laptop is Samsung. My last three phones have been Samsung. I bought an original Galaxy Tab 7" 3G on launch day. All have served me well and worn well.

But Samsung cut corners when they had to retool the 10.1 to make it slimmer and lighter, and it's starting to show. I'm afraid my 10.1 simply won't last long enough for me to buy the next 10.1" tablet Samsung releases, I'll need something sooner than that.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] syl3nt:
i'm going to keep my galaxy tab
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] siggehandf:
Happy with mine too... I don't see the need for quadcore anytime soon and after som flashing and tweaking., my tablet is rock steady. What we really need is to dump this honeycomb 3.1!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Stardate Tab 10.1:
Keeping my 10.1 as well. It does everything I bought it for. I have my very expensive desktop for all my real computing needs. Quad core tablet with one gig for ram will not make much of a difference for what I use the tab for. Not a single problem with mine.

I must say that the next transformer looked to good. Quad core and the videos look so sexy. I wasn't going to sell until someone offered $400 for my tab. So...I couldn't pass it up. Can't wait for Nov. 9 :)

What video player do you use? Dice Player and MX Video Player, with their respective Tegra 2 plug-ins, both play 1080p MKV videos just fine.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Silenus21:
I have a Gtab 10.1 which I might sell to buy a Transformer Prime.

I love the expansion slots and the dock.

What I mostly hate about the transformer is the big bezel.

What's up with that.

Anyways I might wait for more benchmarks of the Transformer and the new Samsung tab alternatives. Maybe they will pack exynos.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Mondfahrer:
Hi,

the Tranformer looks rly nice but atm I´m stil happy with my GT 10.1.

I would prefer Galaxy Tab with quadcore + ICS :p
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] xManMythLegend:
Love everything about the Gtab except the awful Tegra 2 codec and GPU performance.

At this point it would likely take Quad core , Much cheaper , higher res screen to sway me. Two out of those 3 would likely do it IF they can match the aesthetics.

Even with ICS I feel like Tegra 2 tabs will still perform like **** and lag all over the place in the UI/Homescreen magazine apps etc. So quad core will remain utterly tempting.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] siggehandf:
If that is true, don't you find it alarming that Nvidia needs 4 cores to remove lag in menues?... I think the hardware is fine, but Honeycomb is pretty damn crappy.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] hoss_n2:
the lag is because the ui is hardware accelerated in only ice cream sandwich , so i think iCS will fixe this laag

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ebocioj:

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
Expect quality like this. The SIM card slot for the newly released 3G Transformer I. Pretty cheezy.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
I agree that it felt like Samsung cut build quality corners with the 10.1. That's why I have an 8.9; they took their time with it, and it shows. The 8.9 feels much better.

As for the current TF, I don't own one, but having played around with it in the store, it just feels a bit too heavy and chunky for my tastes.

Now, when it comes to Tegra 2, I have to admit, I am quite disappointed. I have an SGS2, and the Exynos SoC takes Tegra 2 and spanks it silly, in basically every category I care about.

So, am I tempted by the TF Prime with ICS and quad core? Maybe just a little bit. Having said that though, I'm really holding out for the GT 7.7; 1.4ghz Exynos? Thin as a razor? HD SAMOLED+? Um, yeah... Sure, it'd "only" be dual-core, but it's one hell of a dual core, and the Mali-400 is a beast...

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Bratag:
ICS finally friggin integrates 2d HW acceleration so a lot of the laggy problems people whine about will disappear overnight.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] bballer71418:
Yea your right but so did honeycomb. ICS provides new 2d HW acceleration for phones, not tablets. Don't get me wrong, honeycomb was thrown together quick, they cut corners, left out a lot. ICS will improve speed but not because of hardware acceleration but because I more finished (releaseable lol) final product. Just fyi, tegra 2 sucks haha worst dual core chip out but anyways it should get faster :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] hoss_n2:
From what I understood. 2D and 3D hardware acceleration exists for honeycomb for apps not for the UI (which ics will bring )
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Bratag:
Actually that's the part of the point of ICS, it brings both tablets and phones under one source tree so 2d acceleration will be enabled for both phones AND tablets.

I agree Honeycomb was kind of the bastard child born of necessity, but from it will come a much better ICS product for all.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Ansextra:
Who are you agreeing with? Almost every post in this thread is complimenting Samsung build quality. Personally I have no problems with the build quality of my 10.1
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
I agree. I've had two, a Wi-Fi and a more recent 3G. Both have been put together well. Out of curiousity, what can be bad about the build quality? It's basically a glass front, a plastic back, and an aluminium edge. There's really very little to screw up. As for the 8.9 being built better, how? I played with one in the store and it seems identical except for the speaker placement. I know the rings issue kind of sucks, but it appears they're addressing that in later builds.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
I was agreeing with the previous post about the build quality of the TF, not Samsung. Both the 10.1 and the 8.9 are WAY superior. I just feel that the 8.9 has a nicer build than the 10.1 though.

---------- Post added at 10:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:01 PM ----------

It could also be down to the fact that I have the 3G version, which has the soft plastic/rubber back to it. I could be biased, but to me, such a small detail has made a big difference to me in the "premium feel" department.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] hagba:
