[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] PandaHandz:
as much as I want a super amoled screen. This screen good for the price, that being said, my nexus Spoiled me because of the great contrast of blacks. This screen is nice at 50% brightness and the angles are pretty good. I am wtill considering a anti glare screen protector, glare is more apparent in LCD than Amoled buts its no mirror at least. 100% brightness is beautiful just bye bye battery
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] dds517:
I checked out the 10.1, 8.9 and the 7.0 at bestbuy and the 7.0 screen is underwhelming. In terms of brightness and vividness, it seems dim compared to the 10.1 and 8.9 and the lack of sharpness is evident.

I had the original galaxy tab and the 7.0's performance was disappointing. It felt the same as my old tab. Lagging and stuttering here and there. If anything the 10.1 and the 8.9 felt much snappier and smoother. The 7.0 had trouble keeping connected to the wifi, and actually kept turning itself off and on again, not just disconnecting. The 7.0 is not the guts of the other tabs in a smaller package, which was what I was hoping for. But it seems they cut corners inside as well. The screen is also less responsive to touch. I found myself continually re-tapping the screen.

I'm not saying that the 7.0 is a bad tab, but compared to the 10.1 and 8.9, it felt sluggish and the screen felt lacking in many ways. Both brightness and touch response. At $399 right now it is not worth it imo.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] PandaHandz:
I played a lot with the 8.9 and the 10.1 and the tegra 2 seemed more sluggish than my 7 plus. 7 plus is a beast in 7 inch form.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] r0ck09:
The 7 plus is a beast indeed. Comparing it to the Asus Transformer which I sold to get the Galaxy 7 Plus is a very noticeable in performance increase. Plays media with no delays or lag. It can play 1080p flash from YouTube through the browser. Try that on a Tegra 2 Tablet.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] rtfm1777:
Compared to the Tab7 which I traded in, the 7+ is brighter and I have no problems with viewing angles.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] skeeterpro:
The original 7.0 is a different beast entirely when making comparison to the 7.0+ IMO. Question.....was the 7.0+ you were trying the display at BB? If so, I've would not use a display to judge any tab really. Those devices have been at the mercy of fingers that may/may not know what they're doing and could well have whacked it around a bit (metaphorically speaking). Maybe it's just me but actually getting a device and using it right out of the box as I would use the device is really the best way to judge. Any that's any device really. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] truelies1:
10.1 and 8.9 all use pls lcd, which is same as 7.0 plus. I also want to know how it does for comparing to kindle fire nook tablet and asus transformer.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] dbdynsty25:
I hope you're not saying that the 7.0 Plus is worse than the 10.1 and 8.9 from a performance standpoing and you're simply referring to the original 7" Tab. Because if it's the former, you're just wrong. The Exynos processor in the 7.0 Plus is significantly better from a benchmarking and usability standpoint than anything that is Tegra 2. I have both the 10.1 and the 7.0 Plus in my household and the 10 collects dust its so sluggish compared to the 7.0 Plus.

Pretty sure anyone who has used both will agree with me...I really am perplexed at what you experienced if you say the 7.0 Plus is worse. It's abnormal...we'll leave it at that. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] dds517:
I'm just saying what I experienced from using both tablets at bestbuy. This is not based on quadrant scores or other benchmarks, but simply using the tablet. There was noticeable stuttering and lag on both tablets, but noticed it on the 7.0plus more occasionally. There is a browser brightness glitch. The wifi on it was glitchy as well and the screen seemed to lack touch responsiveness. If you go to a white screen you will also notice vignetting [darkening] on the long sides of the screen.

I know the exynos processor is better than the tegra2, but hardware alone doesn't make a tablet better or worse. There is a big difference between all the 10.1 tablets that use the tegra2 processor. Some suffer with video playback while others have a smoother ui's and so on. So just basing the usability on the processor alone doesn't work. And if you read on other galaxy 7.0 plus forums there are many bugs that people have been reporting.

Don't get me wrong, I want to get this tablet and have tried it out at different bestbuy's and even factory resetting them. I had the original galaxy tab and it wasn't without it's problems. But things like wifi glitchyness seems like a big issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] speedrabbit:
I have a 7.0+ side by side with the Kindle now. The screen on the 7.0+ is ever so slightly less reflective, but not really enough to make any meaningful difference. I don't have the Nook Tablet on hand to compare with that, but I'd guess the Nook is better as that was a noticeable difference when I compared to the Fire.

On the upside, good hardware, and Netflix and Youtube are both in HD vs the Fire's SD..

Still deciding whether to keep it.. honeycomb has a lot of annoyances that bother me.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Cptnodegard:
From what you're saying I see simple explanations for a lot of it:

Lacking brightness/brightness glitch: LCD power saving mode

Unsharp screen: Movie color mode, which also blurs the image slightly

Lag: Apps running in the background? Using Market, which seems to stutter on everything for absolutely no reason?

WiFi issues: ?????? Mine's never had any such issue
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] dbdynsty25:
You can NEVER trust a demo unit...that's a fact. I've had two GT7+s in my house and both are significantly faster and usable than the two 10.1s I've had. Yes, the brightness bug in the browser is annoying (switched to Firefox and voila, gone) and my first GT7+ had the SOD bug, but other than that, the GT7+ performs significantly better than the 10.1 doing the same things I always do.

I've yet to see any of the other stuff you're speaking about...wifi glitchy? Mine stays connected all the time and switches to the correct hotspot when I use my phone, my work connection or my home...so not sure what you mean.

And about the screen, I agree with CPTN above me...bet it was in Movie mode, dulling the colors.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] dds517:
I've tested the tab with the power saving mode off and and the color on standard.

As the member above said there is a browser glitch. There is a post on this and other forums about wifi being weak and even not connecting to certain routers. If you have both the 10.1 and 7.0, can you do a internet speed test on 'speedtest.net' and post your results? And did you guys update the firmware at all? I'm thinking the newest firmware update might have fixed some of the issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] speedrabbit:
I haven't had any issues with wifi, and no apparent adjustment in sensitivity whether or not I hold the bottom left side as some reported.

I had a chance to compare with my a family member's Nook Tablet again side by side (also with the Kindle Fire again). It's pretty much equally as reflective as the Fire, perhaps a hair better but not significant.

The Nook Tablet is much better than both -- I think a big part of why the Nook Tablet is better when it comes to glare is that not only does it reflect less, but the reflected background area seems smaller. That is, if I hold both the Tab and the NT up in front of me, I can see most of the room behind me on the Tab, but on the NT I mostly see my own head. The reflection of my head fills a larger proportion of the screen, which in turn means less reflection of walls, overhead lights etc is caught. I think this is what makes it easier to find a glare free viewing angle.

The result is that when watching videos on the Fire or Tab, even during scenes that aren't particularly dark, I'm distracted by reflections, whereas on the NT only notice them on the darkest scenes.

The hardware is damn nice though.

[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] the.real.nps:
Hi, hope its the right subforum.

Just got a brand new Galaxy S Plus, rooted it and wanted to remove simlock. To do this, i installed terminal emulator and wrote:

su
cat /efs/nv_data.bin >> /sdcard/nv_data.bin

but i got:

/efs/nv_data.bin: No such file or directory

Then i tried some more command only to come to a conclusion that there actually is no such file there.

cd /efs
ls -a

gave me:

.file
lost+found

Where is 'nv_data.bin'? I have android 2.3.4 (stock version) if that helps.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] loplo:
The file is not present in SGS+. There's is no unofficial way to remove the simlock from this phone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] podface:
Basically is there any way to disable the long strong vibration for the low battery indicator..for my old HTC when on silent, there is only a weak short low battery vibration, whereas it makes me jump and almost drop my s2. I have already used tasker to turn off the fully charged vibration, also I always leave my phone on vibrate.

Any help appreciated
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] stungkit:
Sup everyone,

I have a rooted MB502, Motorola Charm.

Starting around a few days ago, my phone will not install ANY apk files. I tried using File Explorer and clicked on the apk files (it is stored on my sd) and it did not even respond. Furthermore, I used File Manager and I tried to open the apk files and it said "file is not supported". This problem has never happened to me before!

Also, I backed up one of my programs and I tried to re-run the apk files and it does not even work! This means that my apk files are not corrupted.

Yes, I already restarted my phone, with the sd card removed, battery removed, and SIM card removed.

I also made sure that install from unknown sources box is ticked in the settings.

In addition to all of these problems, I cannot install apps from the market! Each time I tried to install something, the download just abruptly ends and I just go back to the first page on the market.

Update:

The SD card works perfectly. My friend's phone easily open and install the APK files from my SD card. So, the problem lies within my phone. I do not want to factory reset it (last resort). Anyone have any ideas?

Update1:

I reset my phone to factory settings and the same problem still persists!

Update2:

I unroot my phone and the problem persists.

Anyone have any idea of what is going on?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] wisefreakz:
Update 3: wrong forum dude... This is for the Milestone/Droid forum.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] stungkit:
Any idea where this topic should go to besides the general question forum?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] vtmike:
I'm currently on the 60 dollar monthly plan with unlimited talking and 2gb of data. Is there any benefit to switching to the contract value plan that is 50 dollars for 500 min and 2gb of data.

I originally was thinking I could benefit from the data roaming on the contract plan but now realize the g2x can't use att 3g towers.

The one thing I was thinking is the contract plan may protect me if T-Mobile decides to raise the rates on their prepaid plans.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
No real advantage unless you want to be able to forward voicemail to Google voice or more options for buying a phone. Also, the Value Plan, equivalent to the old even more plus no contract plans has better prices but now requires a contract.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
Walmart has a $30 unlimited everything plan.

Check your bill. I found I used only like 200 minutes and about 3gb of data and around 1500 SMS.

G2x - 2.3.7 CM7

Transformer - 3.2 Revolver OC/UV
[T-Mobile LG G2x] shovelhead83:
Changing your plan renews your contract. They may not tell you this, but I found out after the fact.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] diazjohn:
The $30 Wal-Mart plan is only $100 minutes (no nights, weekends, m2m), unlimited messaging and web (5gb throttle).

You can't switch to it though if you already have T-Mobile. You have to start fresh on that plan with a new phone number.

No contact though...so not a bad plan if the 100 minutes works for you.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] glenroebuck:
I have that groove ip works out well on the 4g if I never do go over the 100 mins which I don't I find I text more often than not and use the 4g...I came from a Verizon 4G LTE plan - 300 mins/unlimited (haha 2GB is unlimited) data/ 100 txt msgs..that was twice as much..hell it was 30 for the data plan alone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] butterbeam:
I'm on the $70 unlimited talk txt and 5gb of data. Prepaid is the way to go imo.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dracoriddler:
Hate to push a topic that has been closed but I wanted to know if there is a way to forward calls to my google voicemail?

Im on the $30 a month prepaid plan and use groove ip to make and receive phone calls

Any advice thanks
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
Not on prepaid. You have to be able to enable call forwarding at the cell network level, which can only be done on PostPaid accounts. Prepaid and/or FlexPay can't do this... (the reasoning is that it could forward to a toll # in which case post/flex pay can't be billed properly in the case of massive overages....)

[HTC EVO 3D] tonettothebest:
Hello :D

I have a question 4 all the evo 3d owners....can anyone please tell me how to remove the genuine EVO case to replace it with the white one??? I look at the guide to remove the screen....but I don't think is necessary to remove all the components to replace only the external cover.

Hoping that anyone can help me........

Thx all!!!!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] Sad Panda:
Unfortunately to replace all of it, it is necessary. Your only other solution is to buy a screen, digitizer, and LCD in white case all in one piece, and then swap your motherboard into the other part of the white housing. I know, it sounds crazy...but the screen is on part of the housing with adhesive...it is a real ***** to do it without shattering the LCD behind it and reapplying the glass to the housing, strait, even, and flat.

It is an awful process. Makes sad panda real sad
[HTC EVO 3D] faiyo:
He's right it's a huge pain to separate the lcd from the front case. And then it wont fit right when u put it back. sorry. it's one of the worst things to come from htc.. the part that takes the most wear and damage should be swapped easily. i would say it shouldnt be attempted at all.

if you still want to do it then you can buy an extra lcd + digitizer on ebay. leave your original case + lcd + digitzer in a drawer and just move the motherboard into the white case with the new lcd and digitizer.

if youre tight on money then make an attempt anyway but fully expect to buy a whole original case + lcd + digitzer later.
[HTC EVO 3D] tonettothebest:
Thx guys. I think i re min with my Black cover xd xd xd

Thxxxxxxx
[HTC EVO 3D] Sad Panda:
Faiyo makes a good point, you would think that the part that receives the most wear and tear would be the easiest to swap. I wonder, do they do this because they want someone to be required to just buy a new device, or they honestly can't come up with a better way of assembling these devices? It isn't like this is unique to this phone, or HTC. Every phone does it this way.

I think the OP made a good choice, attempting to do this is almost a guaranteed failure. The only way I personally would be capable of doing it would be the method I posted. I did it that way to replace my glass and digitizer.
[HTC EVO 3D] 3vo kid:
yeah a buddy of mine tried to swap out his touch screen and lcd... turns out you have to pretty much take the phone apart inorder to separate the touch screen and lcd from the front bezel. the part that sucks is out of the 1 tear down video that exists the guy didnt even bother showing us how to take the screen and lcd out... quite possibly the most important part of the whole tear down lol
[HTC EVO 3D] Sad Panda:
Lol! I know right? To disassemble it past that point the guide gets to you have to cut around the edge of the screen to loosen adhesive abit. Then stick something to pry it off. You run the risk of screwing up the bevel part, cracking the LCD, or leaving adhesive on parts of the LCD that you can't remove without scratching it to hell.

Then...forget about assembling it back the right way, I think it takes a lamp, genie, magic carpet, and the hand of god or something, I sure can't do it, and I feel I am about as mechanically inclined as one gets. I just don't have the right tools to do it with ease.
[HTC EVO 3D] thatguy11285:
There's a breakdown in the stickies
[HTC EVO 3D] cobraboy85:
what are they supposed to do screw it to the front of the housing? lol. adhesive makes perfect sense when assembling glass to plastic. it needs to be in there tight.

EDIT** THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID
[HTC EVO 3D] faiyo:
With my laptop, it's only about doing some casual screws.

that's what she said
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ferris2375:
Will it be possible? :)

From anyone in the know, are we far off from a CPU OC kernel?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kam187:
why?! The battery life is mediocre as it is!

Undervolt/underclock could be useful tho.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] paOol:
the screen and the radios are what drain the battery the most.

overclocking won't make a big dent on battery life. but better clock speed management may actually improve battery life.

To answer the OP's question, It's inevitable. the chip is a TI-OMAP, and the original Droid came clocked at 550mhz but was a 600mhz chip. It was able to Overclock to 1.1-1.3GHz stable depending on the persons phone.

I'm not saying we'll see a 100% increase on the Nexus, but It's hard to imagine not getting past 1.6 GHz considering the chip is actually 1.5GHz.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Midgetlover:
I have a Motorola Droid X on Android 2.3.3.

Motorola One Click Root goes all the way through and says that the phone should be rooted, but it never is. Here is the alternate method I attempted:

First I used SuperOneClick 2.2 in "Shell Root" mode to get the superuser (#) prompt in adb shell. From there I was able to mount the /system folder for read/write access.

I then copied, "chmodded" and --installed busybox to /system/xbin/.

Next I copied su to /system/bin and changed its permissions to 0755.

Finally, I installed a Superuser.apk

I still get no superuser prompts when I run a root app or type "su" in adb.

What am I missing?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carolinaguzmar:
U need to reset your phone and try all over again
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovetide:
Try to wipe/erase the application data of your root app and/or Superuser app, and try again to see if Superuser prompt will popup.

Several days ago, I upgrade ROM of my phone, and restored data and applications, then rooted, but when I type 'su' in Terminal Emulator application, it will wait for a few seconds and failed with "permission denied" error. I use strace to try to figure out why, I noticed that the real UID (10083) of Terminal Emulator application is not as same as the one (10069) send to Superuser. So I wiped the application data and Superuser application data (in fact, I also reinstalled them), then Superuser will prompt when executing 'su' command.
