[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] teiglin:
Form factor: the 7+ is (obviously) more portable despite being a couple mm thicker. At over 1cm narrower, it fits better in some pockets that have trouble accommodating the 7.7. If you plan to carry it around in pockets, the 7+ is an easy recommendation. If you use a bag/purse, I doubt you'll really notice the difference but the 7.7 is a smidge lighter.

Screen: this is the big one for me. The 7.7 is a 1280x800 SAMOLED+, and the 7+ is a 1024x600 LCD. Samsung's PLS LCDs are great--good brightness and viewing angles, and the 7+ is no different by all accounts. Still, they have nothing on the deep blacks and high color saturation of OLED panels. Also, I find a 7" 1024x600 panel to be absolutely awful for web viewing--600 px width basically makes it unusable in portrait, in my opinion, and that's not a lot of vertical real estate when you're in landscape. Having used a 7+ already, you likely know whether it's something you can live with or not.

Also, you might want to read a bit about some of the screen issues people have. I believe this is the largest SAMOLED+ panel Samsung currently sells and the tech is definitely experiencing some growing pains. You're best off if you can buy from a retail store where you can exchange your 7.7 if you get a bad screen.

Connectivity: since you're comparing a wifi to a 3G tablet, you likely know the ups and downs here. I have the P6810 (wifi only) and have no problems tethering for the rare occasion when I need internet away from a wifi hotspot. I don't really use it in the car, since I'm fine with the navigation options on my phone. Also, since US carriers are crap, I'd be paying way too much for a data-only SIM and plan. Basically consider the cost of tethering and compare it with the cost of a cellular data plan. One thing I find useful too is to amortize the cost over what you expect the lifetime of your tablet to be--it gives you a bit of perspective about what the actual cost difference is.

Internals: The SoCs are the same, though the 7.7's clock tops out at 1.4GHz compared to the 7+ at 1.2GHz. Same RAM, sensors, and cameras. The 7.7 has a larger battery.

Cost: I'm honestly surprised you're considering these in the same ballpark. Here in the states, a P6200 (3G 7+) is nearly $100 cheaper than a P6810 (wifi 7.7). The P6810 is going to take up nearly all of that £350 budget, while I'd expect you to have room to spare if you go with a P6200.

Other: I personally love the way the 7.7 looks--the thinness and aluminum back really give it a premium feel that other Galaxy Tabs are missing. Of course, it's priced to match, but I don't regret the extra cost of the 7.7 personally.

The 7+ also has (and probably will continue to have) better dev support, so if ROMs and themes and such are something you're into, you might want to go with that one. Here, we have root, a couple of basic ROMs, and some statusbar themes.

Hi Mate

I won't go into the pro's and cons of each model but personally I'd suggest you get a 3G model and then get a GiffGaff sim. The GG Sim at £10 per month with no contract gives you 250 mins but unlimited text messages and unlimited data (I used 9GB one month with no comebacks). The biggest advantage of either 3G version of the tablet model is that as you can use them as a real phone you can use a proper GG sim rather then being limited to a datasim with a data cap.

There will be times (perhaps not many) when you'll need either two data connections or to make two simultaneous phone calls in a hurry and having the flexibility of two fully usable devices is irreplaceable IMHO.

By the way there was a 7 Plus in London on Gumtree yesterday for under £350 (nothing to do with me).

Good luck
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] ronak47:
This sounds like something that just happened to me...

I just a week ago bought a refurb tab 7.0 plus (from ebay) and used it and liked it very much until I noticed a dead pixel on the screen. Due to that I returned it and said to myself no more refurbs.

That aside I started to look for a new tab and noticed the Panamoz selling the 7.7 - http://panamoz.com/index.php/hot-deals/samsung-galaxy-tab-7-7-16gb-wifi-3g-wifi-android-tablet.html

I have ordered it and worked out to £425 for the 16gb 3G and wifi model with a replacement warranty (if it encounters a fault they replace it with a new one rather than fix it).

You can get the wifi model for £65 cheaper but for me it's so much more convenient to have a 3G model.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Hipster Dashie:
Thanks for all the input guys!

I took the time to have a look at the 7.7 in the Carphone Warehouse today. I have to agree with those of you praising the 7.7 - it really is a gorgeous tablet! I was surprised at how fluid the OS felt, even with that increase in screen resolution. Considering I can tether whenever I *really* want to get online (the Tab will mainly be used for uni work where there's wifi access, not to mention there are lots of free hotspots about London) and the added monthly cost of a data plan, I've decided to go for a wifi only 7.7. Especially since that link to Panamoz is pegging the 7.7 cheaper than the 3G 7.0 Plus from the outlets I've had my eye on.

Has anyone used opera mobile on the wvo 3d cdma and not had it close out right when you run it? I am using nocturnal venom at the moment and it force closes by itself without even giving me the box to force close. If you are successfully running it what rom are you using. Please only cdma rom and preferably 2.17 base. Thanks in advance guys and gals :)

Tried it on mean from works. Tried it on adrenaline didn't. While I agree it even force closes sometimes on my galaxy s2. It actually opens first on that phone. Anyways thanks guys

I jumped for joy earlier today when i hopped right onto XDA to do my usual look around the forums for the skyrocket. And right infront of me were the words "ICS for SKYROCKET"

I quickly Downloaded the file and went on my way to wait for my phone to be brought back to me...only to figure out that Rogers users were left out in all this fun and joy :(

To my understanding, hardware is all the same...

What could possibly be done?

Is it best we wait for a work around or have someone create a custom ROM.

(Sorry guys, im new to this whole kernel/rom/rooting thing :o )
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tehee:
I think we just gotta stick together and wait it out for silver to get his ICS CWM flashable zip working.

Once that happens... do I need to say it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kifac:
hahaha i just read the thread that you referred to...reading that just got my heart pumping. Im so anxious!!

If it works, its another reason to sell my customers on the S2 ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tehee:

Reading through the comments and it seems bearable.

Can you test if LTE works?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] pixelens:
It's more than bearable. Very smooth, the bugs that it has seem to be in line with the bugs in the AT&T Odin install. Can't confirm LTE as I don't have it in my area yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kifac:
Awesome! Ill give LTE a shot one i get my phone back and get this ROM up and running. Another question...did you install from GB?

Yup, installed from stock GB 2.3.5.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] casianm:

My Note suddenly popped up a notification and showed the usb icon on the notification bar, after running an update on Adaway. The phone was not plugged into a usb cable, but it displayed as if it were connected in MTP mode..

I recently installed Adaway to replace Adfree. I had no way to remove/disable it, until I uninstalled Adaway, the notification icon went away.

Kernel method root, is the only "mod" on an otherwise stock SGH-I717.
[HTC Amaze 4G] salhaj:
Hello all!

I just rooted my HTC Amaze 4G yesterday. I used "[ROM] Android Revolution HD™ 1.1.0" because I needed Arabic supported on my Android.

Anyways, now I have Arabic fully supported, which is great. the phone is fast, and it is now actually 4G instead of 3G, which is better i'm assuming.. (when I got the phone few days ago, it was showing me that it's running on 3g)

so all that is great, however, I have few problems that I can't pretend they don't exist! :(

-----------

first, the camera now isn't working probably, when you press the camera button, you see a scrambled picture, however when you take the photo, it looks normal... I'll upload the photo I took of it.

second, when I come to play a video, whether it's Youtube or any other vid, the picture is also scrambled and it's impossible to see.

third, the Tethering isn't working at all! it says "error" when I try to turn the feature on.

so far that's all the problems I discover since I installed the ROM. not sure if there is anymore!

I looked in the forums, and on google on how to fix them, but it doesn't seem that a lot of people having the same problems.

does anyone know how to fix these issues? and if they are not fixable, is there a way to uninstall the ROM but still keep the Arabic supported????

all I need is the Arabic to be supported, and of course no issues with the phone. :)

this is the thread I used:

[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
Make Sure you intall the ROM EXACTLY how it shows you, if you get errors, do it again
[HTC Amaze 4G] eggydrums:
^^^^^ I would do that also. And if it doesn't work, download super wipe script (if you havent) and use it before flashing, I use it for all the roms I flash, even though its made for ARHD
[HTC Amaze 4G] salhaj:
I followed the thread word by word... I spent 7 hours yesterday rooting it!!!!!! :o

at first it didn't work, but I kept trying until everything went fine with no errors at all.

is there a way to get rid of it and just install another ROM? I also noticed that the phone now takes forever to boot up!!

Thanks for your reply BTW! :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] eggydrums:
Yes, simply download another Rom and flash, most if not all roms here need a kernel to be flashed, if you want, pm me and ill help you further
[HTC Amaze 4G] hasoon2000:
Use superwipe and flash the ROM again. Install the Arabic patch. You should be fine.

Salam
[HTC Amaze 4G] salhaj:
thanks for replying Eggydrums!

I did download super wipe script and ran it before flashing. just as a thread said...

I wonder if running the super wipe now would get rid of the Rev HD and allow me to install Stock ROM?!

I'm not that geek with Android as i'm new to it :) :rolleyes:
[HTC Amaze 4G] eggydrums:
Well I wouldn't go back to stock there are a lot of other roms to try, at this moment, I would HIGHLY reccomend you use Energy Rom, great theme, very stable, and great batt life
[HTC Amaze 4G] salhaj:
Salam Hasoon :)

I will try that, and what is I want to flash another ROM, do I need to get rid of the rev hd or I can just flash another one after using the superwipe? and will that cause the Arabic patch to stop working?

so if I want to have a stock ROM and Arabic Patch, would they work together?

sorry for being too naive lol

Salam
[HTC Amaze 4G] salhaj:
OK! that's cool with me... I can play around with the ROMs, you know removing one and adding another, as long as they work with the Arabic Patch :D

if i want to go ahead and use Energy Rom, all I need to do is do superwipe, and flash the Rom, am I right?

thanks again :)co
[HTC Amaze 4G] salhaj:
ok, so I tried this again. used super wipe, flashed the ROM and installed the arabic patch.... no errors.... and still same problems.

I'm in the process of trying Energy ROM! let's see!
[HTC Amaze 4G] salhaj:
I flashed Energy ROM.. still exact same problems :mad:

I basically did superwipe. then flash. then arabic patch...

the arabic is supported, but again no fix for the other 3 problems :'(
[HTC Amaze 4G] hasoon2000:
Does it happen AFTER you flash the patch or no?
[HTC Amaze 4G] salhaj:
well, it seems to be after the patch, that's why i'm not installing the patch right now. just the rom... i'll see if that was the problem in a bit
[HTC Amaze 4G] salhaj:
it just finished flashing... still same issues.

No patch, no arabic supportd, and still same issues.

no idea what am i doing wrong!!!
[HTC Amaze 4G] salhaj:
is there anyway to undo the ROM. so just basically go back to the original system without losing the "root" on my device... this is my second day trying to get the device to be usefull!... I was an "Apple" person, and things there are much easier,... i'm starting to hate android!!!!!!!!!!!!! :mad::mad::mad::mad:

I still don't get it, why doesn't google have Arabic supported on their devices... it's one of the most demanded feature that people ask for it in their phones!

Ah!!
[HTC Amaze 4G] hasoon2000:
Wallah ana ma b3rif lol. They should add it in.

You can install a prerooted ROM or go back to stock and install root.
[HTC Amaze 4G] salhaj:
wallah I don't know either lol!

how can a prerooted rom help me? whatever it is, if it can help me, I rather do that than go through the same nightmare of rooting again!

do you know any good thread that can help me get it back to stock? in case i need to do that!

Have you tried getting into bootloader?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] RedHazy:
How do I go about doing that again? Is it camera + power or volume down + power?

Thanks
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Emmanuel U:
volume down first then while holding it hold power
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Indirect:
pull battery, put it back in, and then hold power + volume until you get a white screen. It could also be your flex cable going bad though.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] RedHazy:
Just tried it 3 times, the red light in the trackpad goes on, no other feedback from the phone! Buttons or screen or anything!

Any other ideas and where would i go to get something like a flex cable checked or even buy?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Emmanuel U:
charge your phone
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
How many times does the light inside the trackpad blink before it stops?

Most likely the answer is:

...as he is quick to point out, and i'll admit as he did indirectly, we've been there before, and that's what it sounds like.

I definitely a few times now have thought my device was broken, but I have a couple of different batteries laying around and swapping out always solves this - the first time this happened to me was before we had S-OFF, and it's never happened on my anker battery ... only the stock ones.

( I haven't been keeping track of if it's the same stock battery or both of the ones I have - it happens so infrequently)

Given how it's caught me by surprise once, I might be willing to blame this particular hiccup on the battery, but again, it happens so infrequently - 3 times for me since the beginning of August, so it's hard to tell for sure.

Whatever it is, despite my hunches of the battery culprit, it's certainly not a function of rooting or anything about that since it happened to me before we had that.

2 of the times it was letting the battery run out while sleeping, the first time it happened I was around 20% left. Turned the screen off, wasn't doing anything with it, got a shower, and when I came back it was like this.

I got pretty frustrated and worried, I didn't want to take it back to the store for a different one, so I plugged it in and went over to a friends house. When I came back it worked fine, so I chalked it up to a dead battery, maybe it wasn't reading the percentage right or something.

Dunno, some thoughts...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] RedHazy:
Thanks, so much I'll try a alternative battery... might have to buy one from ebay... any suggestions? The Red Trackpad light doesn't turn off at all when I try volume down and power just sits there!? Strange I've tried charging it now with no apparent luck I'm praying it's a battery issue! The orange light flashes a few times now when charging then hits solid green when done?

So lost again any thoughts greatly appreciated!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Not sure then - sounds like you should have gotten enough juice to get past it being what we were talking about.

Doesn't mean it isn't a battery issue, but can't say for sure?

Dunno, i'll be turning it over in my head and if I think of something i'll drop it here.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] whistler4ever:
Any word on this?

I was trying to Juopunutbear S-off my phone last nite, when it took me a little time to get the wire trick rite and now my phone is dead. Only the trackpad light stays on and I don't know if that means its out of juice or its bricked. and since the orange led doesnt turn on; I don't know if its charging or not since it won't turn on at all.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] anitgandhi:
Try unplugging it taking the battery out, put it back in 10 seconds later,and plug in the power again. Hold down the volume button and press the power button, see if you can get to recovery from hboot. If you can, you probably aren't completely screwed.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] whistler4ever:
Thanks anitgandhi for your response. I went thru the procedure and nothing came up on the screen. the screen is still blank. All I see is the red light on the trackpad. I'm not sure if the battery is dead or the phone is bricked!!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] anitgandhi:
This is just a shot in the dark but try plugging it into your computer, see if it recognizes it.

Honestly I'm not too familiar with juopounutbear s-off cuz I have revolutionary, but given the whole wire trick thing, I think bricks can happen easily if you're not extremely careful
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Maybe someone with more experience in this type of thing will chime in but I DO know that if your battery goes dead when working at the levels that juopounutbear takes you down to it is very likely you have a brick. The same holds true for flashing most anything except for just the most minor things. You should ALWAYS have at the very LEAST a 50% charge on your phone before you attempt anything other than just using it.

The constant dim red light on the trackpad is NOT a good sign.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Indirect:
When you plug it in, check device manager for qload USB
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] whistler4ever:
Thanks guys for your responses. Tried plugging it into the computer, computer doesnt see anything, no qload or anything. I had a full charge on the phone before the wire trick, so a dead battery is just a guess. I didnt learn abt revolutionary until after the brick! lol

I did try this too just in case, http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=27797058&postcount=18

and there was no response.

Should I find an external charger and try to charge the battery?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Coug76:
If you know someone with a Sensation and if you can borrow their charged battery for a minute you can find out pretty quick.
