[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] hilltruange:
I just got my tab two months ago, and I have been trying to find any app that best suits this gadget. So far, I almost got what I want, so I decide to write them down, and maybe this can help some other newcomers like me.

player:

1.BSplayer. It has a very nice ui and an functional LAN mode(you can stream from any smb server within a LAN). It's currently introduced a hw acceleration method, which I think is as good as the one that Diceplayer has.

2.Google Music. Very cool UI with a nice widget. A must-have app for anyone who likes google's music streaming service.

Google Reader

HD Reader Since I rely on google reader to subscribe rss feeds, google reader app is definitely a essential reading tool on my tab. But I really don't like the google's version(it's just a phone app). After several days of app-hunting, I found this one, it supports 3 different theme, and many essential settings such as on/off line mode, font family, cache, image downloading, etc. it's ui design is just visually appealing. Plus it has a transparent widget which is also configurable.

Podcast download/streaming

Beyond Pod. This one is definitely the best choice if you listen/watch podcast on daily basis. the ui is optimized for tablet, and transition is quite smooth. It provided all the basic features of a podcast receiver app.

Ebook Reader

Mantano I tried a lot of ebook reader's but eventually settled with Mantano reader. It has a very nice ui which is optimized for tablet. It supports epub as well as pdf. The reading experience is excellent.

Ezpdfreader. Probably the best pdf reader I could find.

Facebook/twitter

Wizz widget for tablet. this applet is just enough for basic usage of facebook/twitter. so I don't need other apps for these. Anyway,you can try Friendme/Friendcaster, and tweetcomb. These individual apps are all optimized for the tablets.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] chaosdefinesorder:
thanks for the suggestion of Reader HD, that's the kind of RSS program I've been looking for! Love the theme unification with Gmail!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] Googamooga:
I've had my tab since August, and I've spent a lot of time trying out different apps and bouncing around.

I still stick with Stitcher for Podcasts, having tried BeyondPod and a few others and just not being that impressed. I'm hoping Stitcher will get more tablet-optimized soon.

For an RSS reader, I hadn't seen HD Reader before -- it looks pretty slick. I've been turned off by all the apps like Pulse which turn my daily news-reading into a huge multimedia experience; I much prefer the simplicity of the standard Google Reader app to that. HD Reader looks like it might be a nice merging, though, and I'll give that a try.

MoonReader+ works well for epub reading, but I think I'll give Mantano a try.

DicePlayer was one of the first apps I bought for my tablet for videos, and I haven't regretted it.

Reddita is great for browsing and posting to Reddit. I have Reddit is Fun for my phone, but Reddita is just perfect on tablets.

I prefer Thumb Keyboard | Tablet over SwiftKey X for Tablet, but it's pretty close. I use Hacker's Keyboard occasionally when I'm doing terminal sessions. Speaking of, Better Terminal Emulator pro is the only option for SSH sessions!

Make sure you browse around Tablified.

news360 is my favorite news app for the tab so far, but I'll have to checkout HD reader.

thank u so much guys...these lists were needed a long ago but its never late.

i agree that these lists are awesome and this thread must be sticky so that newcomers can take advantage.

Music

TuneIn Radio - Ha! Who needs an FM antenna? I can get all my favorite radio stations from everywhere I've ever lived, oh and that cool one from Germany. I haven't even bothered putting MP3s on my tab because of this app.

Ebook

FBreader - No fancy graphics, just customizable and simple epub access. Quite possibly the most opened app on my Tab.

TV

Crunchyroll - Mmmm anime. I've been tempted more than once to invest in the premium access.

Keyboard

Thumb Keyboard - Very fast, and has an awesome Tron-styled theme.

Just had my wifes replacement tab arrive today, boy its gonna be fun getting into this thing!

I've seen a lot of great suggestions here, but was wondering if there are many launchers optimized for tablet?

I saw ADWlauncherEX suggested, i already own that on my phone so i will definitely try that first.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] union1mc:
I don't know about launchers designed for tablets, but I use ADWex and have had no issue at all with it.

On a side note, Mint just optimized their finance app for tabs and it is great. If you're a stickler about managing your expenses, I find this app to be incredible.

Ok I'm honestly baffled here. My battery life has been terrible. Here's what has been done recently. two days ago I restored my stock back up and flashed unnamed 1.3.1. Noticed my battery was dying very quickly. So I went into cwm. Wiped data, cache and davik cache and reflashed unnamed 1.3.1. My battery is dying no exaggeration about 10% every 40-50 minutes. In addition to all this...my phone wont stay turned off. It turns it self on after about 2 seconds. Ugh please help me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gr8hairy1:
Wow. That's pretty rough. I say go back to 100% stock and see how it goes. If it still is dropping that fast your battery may be bad.

I really appreciate the replys. I'm going to take one more day and see how it goes...if its still not working right ill be buying a USB jig and learning how to get back to stock.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MWilkenson:
Also when you say go back to 100% stock...do you mean like restore my stock back up? Or am i going back to 100% stock unrooted? Or what? I've seen a couple threads, I'm just confused so I apologize. If you could guide me in the right direction I would appreciate it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
Use Entropy512's return/unbrick to stock package. Or I have an Odin3 OneClick Downloader of his package is you prefer. It's a little easier. See the link in my signature.

There is no such thing as a backup of 100% stock. To make a working nandroid backup, you need to already have a custom kernel installed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MWilkenson:
Thank you so much. I will check it out when I get home. So after I do that I'll still be rooted? Or do I need to root again before I flash a rom again? I promise im almost out of noob questions.

And I might try getting a new battery to fix the other problem. I'd hate to have to send my phone in for warranty

EDIT: ok i just looked at your link with odin 3. say i use the one without root. i would essentially be bone stock out of the box correct? and from there i could just start over, use the guide on how to root, etc.?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gr8hairy1:
The only difference between the two packages is one will give you root while the other will not. If you go with the one with root you will be 100% stock aside from root. I only recommend going 100% because then you'll know it won't be any rogue apps draining the battery or issues from a custom rom. If you get the expected battery life stock rom has then you'll know the battery is good. If it's lower than what is usually is for stock rom most at&t stores will replace the battery on the spot for you.

So no benefit of going with the package without root unless you're taking it back to at&t.

although i do have another question..sorry. Ok so when i first rooted i became acustom to CWM and flashing unnamed rom themes in that. After i used odin3 one click it gives me the android system recovery 3e and ive never seen it before. can i still flash unnamed through this or do i do something different?

Hello,

I installed cyanogen-mod 7.1 stable and every thing work awesome I turns off the phone and charged it.To the next day I closed the phone and put on charging but the phone turns on after it cant enter to the charging mod (grey battery with stuck circle on it) and without showing the green battery he turns on.

Thanks.

If you enable USB debugging it won't turn on while charging.

You got this problem before?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mudferret:
It's a known issue.

If you enable Settings > Applications > Development > USB debugging the phone will stay off while you charge.

I'd also recommend the latest nightly rather than the stable as much has changed and the latest nightlies are much more stable. The stable was later reclassed as a release candidate anyways.

You can try to build or buy a jig. If that doesn't work you're fubar. Learn from this experience and next time use the carpenters saying : measure twice , cut once. I wish you best of luck.

where can i buy the jig ?

or how can i build it ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Sine.:
You can buy it on eBay, or search in these sections (or google "SGS jig") for instructions to make it.

You'll need a microUSB cable and a 301k resistor (example : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=819551)

[Nokia Lumia 800] htc12345:
Today was in the phone shop. A whole bunch of Jabra headsets are available. This made me wonder where the good headsets went.

Good headsets working with the Lumia are for example Sonyericsson HBH-DS200 series, which are stereo and bluetooth, have internal volume control on top of that on the phone, and have media player controlling options.

This made me wonder what today the better headsets are.

If anyone can help out listing headsets which work and can control the several options like mentioned above that would be welcome.

I had looked into Iphone compatible headsets, but the controlling buttons did not seem to work, at least not in the Dre-series 99 euro version I tested.

Can anyone list their experience with different headsets on the Lumia 800 which have controlling options like volume, media and call answer,

Bluetooth or Wired makes no difference in this topic

[Nokia Lumia 800] William Richardson:
This seems to be a complete hardware flaw on the back of windows or apple. I have struggled with this one ever since i got my first wp7 last year. I recently received the 800 and immediately bought a headset - it did not work. I bought another on mobilefun, according to them compatible. It was not! This one was a platronics headset. My suggestion would be go to a massive Carphone Warehouse or other shop that sells headset, and try and see which ones work. I did this and bought a fantastic headset for £14.99; it was a Samsung headset. It does not have volume control but I can do everything bar next/previous song. I am sure now if I wanted to I could have spent more and had what you are looking for. My main thing I need the microphone to work. It works superbly. I received a text the other day as I was cycling along, it asked me if I wanted to listen/Delete/Ignore; I said listen, it then asked me if I wanted to Reply/Call/Ignore - I called, spoke to the client and then carried on cycling. I did not at one point take my hands of the handlebars. The music switched back on afterwards. For £14.99 - Perfect!

I hope this helps. If it does just press Thanks - ;)

[Nokia Lumia 800] voluptuary:
I'm using Sony hbh-is800 Bluetooth wireless buds and they are great. There no volume control on the buds so you have to use the phone to adjust but that's a minor thing to deal with for the form factor these sweet things have. I also can be about 15 feet away from the phone and still have signal unlike some of those otherones where if you have your phone in the wrong pocket you drop out. I only really use these for tunes though so I have no idea about call quality and whatnot.
[Nokia Lumia 800] magers:
Does anyone have more links to compatible headsets?

I was looking at the Nokia Purity Stereo earbuds and got excited, but then saw they don't support track skipping control? I listen to a lot of music biking/walking and need both volume control, pause/start and track skipping control(at least track forward control).

There must be something out there, that doesn't force me to choose between track control or volume control.. :confused:

[Nokia Lumia 800] Sonic Steven:
I use the Nokia BH-111 headset - came with my Lumia 800 free as part of the phones deal.

It is a Bluetooth stereo headset which comes in a variety of colours. Has volume control and media keys, and also allows you to control calls with it.

The earphones supplied fit in my ear very well - never fall out even when running.

Quality through the supplied earphones is more than acceptable when listening to music - was good enough to stop me from buying a £20-30 pair anyway.

Noticed it currently sells for around £23 in black, which if I didn't get it for free I'd be happy to pay that.
[Nokia Lumia 800] GeneNZ:
So I was in carphonewarehouse in Ealing and found the Nokia purity on ear headset. Inline control works well. One click to play/pause, two for next track and three for prev track. Volume also works well.

But for £200 headsets they sound like crap. Just as poor as the audio by beats range (for their price). My £40 Soundmagic PL45 have better quality and volume by far. I have some Klipsch S4 on order from play.com (£22). Heard good things about the S4. Was hoping to find a good quality IEM with inline remote.
