[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] zuperpailon:
Is it true that it's a lot smoother than HC? Cause we all know HC lags
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] fage88:
yea way smother. HC kind of sucks imo. but i dont thing the current preview rom they have out is good enough for daily use. HQ video playback doesnt work. and that is a killer for me because i use my tab for Media mostly. But if thats not important to you then it is good enough to use every day. cant wait for the real thing though. Tablets need it bad because HC is rushed and crummy.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] x-ravin:
Yes ICS is a huge improvement over HC. I have a Galaxy Nexus and it is as smooth as an iPhone, and gets amazing battery life. I have the Kang of CM9 on the Tab and it so good I am leaving it on despite the fact my keyboard dock doesn't work. It is just too good to go back to HC.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] nikzDHD:
I concur the kang is awesome. It's like ICS was made for this. Smooth and speedy. Despite no HQ playback yet I'm sticking with it no way I can go back to honeycomb now.

Patiently awaiting an official CM9 build soon.

Try it if no likey nandroid back to honeycomb.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Milkman00:
Is rotation lag gone, ESPECIALLY on the home screen?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] okpc:
Sadly not for p7500... guess have to wait a bit longer
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] DT3CH:
Yes much smoother, HC is straight up balls compared to this KANG version
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Euroman28:
Do you guys think Samsung will cancel upgrading our Galaxy tab 10.1 to ICS so that they push a made for ICS Tab later this year?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] airwax:
Anybody tried using the Kang on teh P7500? The 3G version seems like lagging in the update department in terms of custom ROMs.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] okpc:
Yeah p7500 owners don't have much to play around with. I was wondering if we flash a p7510 rom with a modem whether we will get 3g. Anyone willing to try?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] hoss_n2:
Wifi roms work normally on 3g tab but with no 3g ,but personally I haven't tried ics yet .
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] sokoow:
All,

what about battery lifetime on Kangs ? Anybody have any figures yet ?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Dai323:
The kang works fine on the 7500. Its smooth as hell too. Completely on another level compared to hc. But without HQ playback I cant use as a daily driver.

Try it out if your curious.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Mwana:
T he Kang is for p75xx so it does work on p7500. Tried it for acouple of hours but had to revert back to honeycomb because of lack of 3g.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] DT3CH:
No as Samsung has confirmed a Q1 upgrade to ICS....
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] theROMinator:
Although, that was for gs2.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Nagarebozhi:
No that was for, Galaxy R, Galaxy Z, Galaxy SII, Galaxy Tab 8.9, Galaxy Tab 10.1 so don't know where you get your info from!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] xboxfanj:
Mine lasted about a week. Granted, I didn't use it much because I was busy,but still impressive. When I did use it, it was battery killing stuff too

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] danielblakes:
I don't have any figures, but battery life is as good as it was on hc.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Protomunkey:
Hi all, I have been searching the forum and yet find anything about it :( with ics around the corner, is it best to root my gtab now or wait to root after ics hits over the air update? Also.. if I root my grab now and when ics update, is there a way to keep your root and get the ics update? Sorry to ask so many questions. Thank you!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Funkmon:
...you mean Galaxy tab 10.1, right? A gtab is a viewsonic product, iirc.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] slack04:
Considering the sort of questions we get around here, these aren't so bad; don't apologize.

1) Root now. It probably won't make any difference, but there's always the possibility that Samsung tries to shut down root. Also, since CM9 will be out (hopefully) before the Samsung update, you'll have the option of running ICS much sooner.

2) If you root you won't get the OTA update, but really, you want CM9 anyways; not the bloated, featureless, touchwizzed Samsung update. Root, install a custom ROM or the CM9 kang (that's what I'm running now) and enjoy!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Protomunkey:
Funkmon,

I learn something everyday. yeah i mean a galaxy tab 10.1 but you got what i meant though :)

Slack04,

thanks for your reply. i will triple read up on how to root before I root my tablet. I am running cm7.1 on my evo4g so cm9 would be fun. thanks again!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] RileyGrant:
The galaxy tab 10.1 is possibly the easiest device to root, you're in for a treat. (;
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] DoN7B1ink:
Hi all im new to the galaxy tab, 1 quick question whats this about ICS that alot of people are talking about? is it a new operating system?

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jtnave23:
I've got both the 10.1 and 7.0+ and can say ICS is really awesome in terms of speed and responsiveness compared to Honeycomb. I was busy last week playing with the ICS Kang version and went back to the 7+ and saw a HUGE difference between the two. Even with the Exynos processor, the 7+ looked sluggish and slow because of TWiz and Honeycomb (even overclocked!). Can't wait for ICS.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jaewon223:
the alpha ICS gets maybe 2 days of idle with wifi on. i can get much longer (maybe 7 days?) with HC rom (i use the slimv2).

alpha is alpha. not really ready for everyday use although you could get by. hope samsung gets ics soon because hc feels more like the beta of what shoulda originally been ics as our OS.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] kehlan:
ICS is the only thing keeping me from thinking that the GT-P75XX has lost love. I feel like the Dev section has been a bit slow recently.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Euroman28:
Where is the source of the info that this tab will get an official Android 4.0 upgrade in Q1 of 2012?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] The Root:
Where'd you come from? Haha!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Nagarebozhi:
Samsung Sweden have posted that on there official facebook page.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Tegraboy:
I Kang'ed my mine and it works fine, not tried the 3G but never use it TBH and the ICS build is so smooth I would rather enjoy my tab how it is now rather than going back to HC.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] iSonik:
There is a Cm9 for the 7500?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] x-ravin:
You can only go so far hacking away without the source. It's when you can start playing with everything that ROM dev goes nuts. Take a look at the Galaxy Nexus boards, there are new ROMs everyday.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] wewewi999:
It's because we are still waiting too see a couple ICS Tegra2 roms!

Building a bootable rom is fairly "easy".

Building midly working rom like Kang's is much more tricky since he had no "examples" at all.

Had to use generic HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer) and libraries ; means no camera or anything tablet-specific.

Soon as we get our paws on a couple more ICS roms, it'll go FAST;

First, we'll hear about some Tegra2 Tablets receiving a Stock ICS update OTA.

Then will come CM9 complete Tegra2 support (cause theres LOTS of people working on it)

At last, we shall see dozens of ICS flavored roms.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] bbgt2:
Ha! Try living with a VZW LTE version (i905) now thus thing has absolutely ZERO love, thinking about donating to charity. Regret buying it. Simply no ROM for it besides Liquid speed.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Wijnand85:
pershoot is working on CM9 and committed some updates (for P7500 but also for P7100). Don't know if it's ready to compile and run but some progress has been made.

hey, i ve installed naa´s rom and kernel. and i want that everything on the screen is a little bit bigger, so i changed the resolution to 130. everything looks fine, but the only problem is that the icons in the status bar are blurred. eg. the H for 3g and so on.

Is there any solution to make it look like on standard density (120) ??

thx for reply
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] berkmanmd:
During the Nexus/ICS unveiling in Hong Kong it was mentioned that while using Google Voice, all voicemails would be shown in the Phone app (alongside missed and recent calls).

They made note of a new API that allows all voicemail services to "plug in" to this functionality.

Have they not enabled this yet for the Google Voice app? I can receive voicemails through the GV app, but they do not show in the Phone app.

Maybe it's something wrong with my setup?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NPuter:
I didn't even know they announced that. My voicemails certainly do not show up in the call log. Although, it would be pretty cool if they did.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
hey that's a good question, what happened to that feature? i watched it at the event and it looked awesome. your voice mail played right inside the call log. i havent even heard anything about it since then...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EKnofsky:
Shown right here is that feature, would love to have it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NPuter:
wow. that look awesome! I would love to have that. The google voice app is not very pretty/user friendly. This method is much more elegant.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DivinityCycle:
Yeah, the GV stuff really could stand to be more fully integrated with the OS. For example, wouldn't it be SWEET to receive SMS via GV and then have an option to just send those messages to the default SMS application on your phone? At the moment, there isn't really any good/friendly way for 3rd party apps to interact with the GVApp. +1 for more GV OS integration!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] berkmanmd:
Kinda like iMessage where it is all integrated...

I read somewhere awhile back that they were totally redesigning the GV app...maybe that's what they're waiting on?

Still waiting on MMS support. I hate that when someone sends me a picture message it simply goes into a black hole with no bounce notification to the sender or notification to me that one was sent
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] berkmanmd:
thanks for sharing the exact clip. looking forward to this!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matt212308:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Buff McBigstuff:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grannypotts:
True, but all replies to the original incoming SMS will be sent from the cell number and not the Google Voice number. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sluflyer06:
From what I understand the ability to integrate voicemail into the phone app exists in ICS already but the carriers or an app has to write code to make it happen. So yes if google chose they should be able to use the API they wrote into ICS for GV and integrate it...I for one hope they do, having to go to GV for voicemail suks.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lanternca:
I'm been looking through a few threads, but no luck...

I know the search bar is fixed in ICS, and that is very helpful. BUT, it's very hard to reach (one-handed operation) the microphone. So, for example, when I'm in the car, I can hit the google voice search and get directions somewhere.

I used to put the google voice search app itself in the bottom right-hand corner of a homepage. It worked perfectly, but there is not app now. just integrated. someone help please!

Hopefully I can put Majel (if and when it ever comes out) in that spot...

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rjax:
Any of these will work for this purpose:

QuickShortcutMaker: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.sika524.android.quickshortcut&hl=en -- use the Voice Search entry that ends in RecognitionActivity.

xShortcut: https://market.android.com/details?id=ex.chinyang.android.xshortcut&hl=en -- follow the directions for Activity Capture Mode

Or, as per this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1420277 you can use Launcher Pro to create a custom shortcut.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] webin:
I just solved this problem yesterday with xshortcut. Quick, painless, perfect results.

Now I'm looking for a 2x2 widget button to place custom shortcuts on... BIG voice search button :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChongoDroid:
Not sure if your rooted but bixies latest has the search soft key ended to open voice search upon long press.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rjax:
Not quite what you want visually, but you could just put 4 shortcuts in a square pattern.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tampa_Scott:
Thank you very much, QuickShortcutMaker is EXACTLY what I have been looking for!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] webin:
That didn't occur to me. Just set it up and while it doesn't LOOK ideal, it works perfectly. I can click in the middle of the four icons and be sure to get one of them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ugapug:
You can also use Nova Launcher if you don't want to root/ROM. You can set the home key to open up voice search with it. If you root, you can use one of the many ROMs that have a search key soft button mod that has long-press Voice Search.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Buddy Revell:
Good stuff. Thanks.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ANtiHazarD:
So the question is:

how to set up Android as a primary booting os?

There is a solution, maybe somebody can share ?

Thanks!
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mountaindewmi:
Android is normally the OS that boots by default when you first install it, but if it is not on yours I guess you could try this method (in reverse, since it is a guide to boot webOS by default):

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1435318

Or if you have preware on webOS, install an app called CyBoot and its super easy to change.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dallas.maverick:
Do the following from terminal emulator app or adb:

su -

mount -o rw,remount /

mkdir /boot

mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p13 /boot

echo "Cyanogenmod" > /boot/moboot.default
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nomadman:
install cyboot from webos and make android default. now, if android goes to a boot loop for some reason, u are stuck in android unless you know how to fix it. you'll have to weigh your options.
[HTC EVO 3D] Kblavkalash:
Hey guys so now there is a great price for this phone in one shop in my country and it's like ~60% cheaper than Galaxy S2, while specifications (RAM, CPU) ain't worse than GS2.

So is it worth buying this phone? I need honest answers, and I really didn't plan to buy a smartphone but this price is sooooo good that I imagine I won't find a smartphone with such specifications in months or years..

So what do you say? I heard big problem is dust under then screen, but is it solvable with phone case?
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
I would say no one else's opinions matter except yours. People come on here all day long and ***** and moan that they should've went with another phone after buying the EVO 3D, and others come on saying it's the best choice they made. I would say, go try both of them out at the store, make YOUR decision based on that.
[HTC EVO 3D] LfnsR:
absolutely. it is a great devise and has TONS of development support. especially if it is a great price. even though it is now about 6 months old it still holds its own against the new crop coming out. the 3d is my first android phone coming from many years on blackberry and haven't looked back. rooting it allows you to really got the best performance/battery life.

ultimately, it comes down to personal choice. you are going to have people that love and hate it. just my 2 cents...
[HTC EVO 3D] Kblavkalash:
Well I don't expect it to be like TOP phone in the market, especially because the price is really acceptable. But why exactly people complain about this phone? Is it something wrong with it I don't know?
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
If you've never owned a smartphone, you won't understand that no one is every truly happy with their phone. There's always something small they want different (which is why rooting and ROM flashing occurs).
[HTC EVO 3D] Kblavkalash:
eXplicit815, oh then it won't be a problem I guess because I never owned one. I was planning to buy a GS2 this summer, but price was extreme and only now I noticed this one, which does not look really worse than GS2.

So again, how about that dust under the screen? It is possible to avoid that by using a case?
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
I don't know. I've never had the problem with dust under my screen. I don't use a case either. But I know that if my phone gets dust under the screen, Sprint will either fix or replace my phone for free, no questions asked. I have the insurance plan.
[HTC EVO 3D] LfnsR:
I haven't really heard of this - maybe one posting that I saw way back. Not really an issue. A case can help, but most don't cover the screen anyways. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
There were issues with this on the HERO and the EVO 4G, but not a lot, if any, have been reported for the EVO 3D. They seem to have fixed the problem. I wouldn't worry about it, because HTC should stand behind it and warranty it directly for you if it does happen.
[HTC EVO 3D] Luthien1:
It's better then gs2.....in every way except speaker and camera....everything else its better and the 3d is amazing...the EVO 3d is super underrated.....
[HTC EVO 3D] Kblavkalash:
Prolly going to buy it tomorrow, hope price will still be low tomorrow :D

And what about the screen? This LCD screen is not much worse than SuperAmoled+?
[HTC EVO 3D] hitman4274:
I change oil for a living, and my phone takes a beating,ive never had dust get under my screen, the EVO 3d is an amazing device, you will be happy with it,

[HTC EVO 3D] Kblavkalash:
Just watched some comparison videos with GS2 and noticed browser is quite laggy on Evo 3d if the site has a lot of stuff, while GS2 is always perfect. For example on 12:50 -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pY7nHi2Lcbg

Wondering is this browser performance going to be improved in the future by updates or is it hardware limiting for Evo 3d? Because overall Evo got similar amount of RAM, CPU and GPU as GS2.
[HTC EVO 3D] bais:
I think it's because Galaxy S2 browser has full hardware acceleration, unlike the Evo 3D one.

It should be closer to GS2 performance once ICS update is out, since it'll add hardware acceleration to the UI and browser.

I even think that some custom ROMs already have hardware acceleration. Correct me if I'm wrong
[HTC EVO 3D] cobraboy85:
with all of the development going on (and more to come as it gets ICS) the evo 3D is the best phone out there in my opinion.

make sure you don't get one with hboot 1.5 though... it will make flashing ROMs a ***** for you.

---------- Post added at 02:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:52 PM ----------

interesting about the huge effects of HW acceleration... i owned my evo 3D at the same time i had the GS2... signal strength was better on the EVO, clarity in phone calls was better, and the browsers both loaded idenctical web pages in eactly the same amount of time.

HW acceleration is overrated and should never be a selling point of a phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] xian_online:
I bought my phone for the processor, resolution, and ram. I purchased it on launch day because it was king of the dual core qHD pack at the time. I think its a phenomenal phone. It was its flaws, i for one think the radio is a bit weak, and i never use the 3d, but that said, if you've never owned a smart phone and your getting a good price, go pick it up, you will be absolutely amazed with a phone like this. I call it my pocket linux :) because its my pocket computer :)

So i say get it!!

Before i replaced it, i shattered my screen, destroyed t, but aside from being hard to read the screen well because of all the cracks, i used the phone just fine for months that way. Its a very sturdy device. And as fas as the sg2 goes, there very similar phones spec wise, so go for price, the evo 3d is a very powerful phone, and i wouldnt dream of trading it for a sg2.

Hope to see ya around here flashin with all of us :)
[HTC EVO 3D] DizoAZ:
I had the Evo 4g and then upgraded to the Evo 3d. My advice would be to get a device that's 4g LTE compatible if you're looking to get one soon. I would say wait and get the Galaxy Nexus when it comes out if you can wait a month or whatever it is. Unfortunately, I'm not in an area that even gets WiMax, Phoenix is on the bottom of the list it seems. But if it were me, I'd get an LTE phone if you plan to keep it for the next couple years, especially if you're in an area that has 4g now. Sprint will be moving to LTE, which means they'll probably limit or stop the WiMax 4g buildout across the states. So unless you're in an area that has WiMax now, you'll probably never get to use the 4g feature unless you travel to some place that has it.

Carrier IQ was a major turn off for me once I heard about what it collects and that the Evo's have it. I'm not even sure with the latest OTA that they released if they got rid of it yet.

I did the Hboot 1.5 root method today and loaded SenselessROM 2.9.5. This is the best thing I've done to this phone and would highly recommend it! Especially with the hacked Sprint Hotspot feature and removal of Carrier IQ. I'm now glad I own a Evo 3d and think this rooting/rom will hold me over until the quad-core Tegra 3 phones hit the market later this year. Then I'll upgrade to a quad-core with LTE technology, since that's the direction Sprint will be going and all other carriers are.
[HTC EVO 3D] Kblavkalash:
Thanks guys :)

So how do I check that my phone won't have hboot 1.5? Or is it impossible to check in the phone shop?
[HTC EVO 3D] flintman:
I like this phone. I got it back in July had it rooted as soon as it was available and have been ROM hopping ever since. I just bought one for my wife. She thinks it's the best phone yet and she has gone through a lot of different models. An unrooted phone is very quick and responsive. Battery life is ok stock can't wait to see how it is with the new update.
[HTC EVO 3D] saboture:
1.5 isn't a ***** at all. You have a whopping one more step you have to do than someone who has 1.40 or lower.

Rom process for 1.40

reboot to recovery

wipe

flash rom

Rom process for 1.50

Flash kernel through flash image gui

Reboot to recovery

wipe

flash rom

The EVO 3D is still a beast, and if you say the stock browser is slow here's some good news man. You dont have to use the stock browser, there's around 8 browsers out there that all have different pro's and cons. My first EVO 3D could be overclocked to 2.0 GHZ. Technically I had a phone running at 4.0 ghz in my pocket and damn near stable. 1gig of ram is awesome. The screen is awesome. I've got a minute amount of dust under my screen but you can only see it when the screen is off. I say go for it.

Edit: If they'll let you see the phone, take the battery out and put it back in. Hold down the power button and the volume down button at the same time until the screen kicks back on. You should be at a white screen. The text at the top should say Hboot 1.xx.xxxx on the second or third line. Pull the battery out again and you're good to go but tbh it really doesn't matter which one you get. There's ONE limitation to 1.50. You cant change your splash screen, a screen you might or might not see often.

Edit: Actually, where are you from? You might not even have to deal with 1.50 because if you're not in the united states you'll have the GSM version which can be downgraded. It's lengthy but there's a fool proof step by step walkthrough to do it.
