Agreed. I've gone through a couple phases with my Tab 2 7" thus far. I was initially a bit disappointed in it as the screen and performance weren't quite as crisp as my Galaxy S2 phone. But after more day-to-day use and comparing it with the hacked Nook Color I'd been using previously it's really started to grow on me and I quite like it now, especially given the price. But if I had to buy new right now I'd probably opt for a 16GB Nexus 7. The extra space provided by an external storage card on my Tab is largely useless as far as most apps are concerned.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] CASz:
I got the Tab2 because it shipped with ICS, has a back camera and expandable storage. No regrets. I am not in the US so I wouldn't have been able to access all the Google services. Tab2 was a bit less ($10) than the Nexus for me.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] scottx .:
You should search. You would see the other five threads asking the same question.

No, don't buy one. Get an ipad.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] PantechBurstOwner:
Ha good one. Like I would spend my money on an apple product. Also the nexus tablet is like Two weeks? Two days old. I doubt someone compared it to this but thanks for the negativity downer Dan!
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] eejee:
I am very happy with my Tab 2, but in the end I think the i-pad is the better choice: many more tablet apps available.

[Galaxy Tab 2 General] murdawg:
Like scottx said buy an IPad so you can support sue happy Apple. They need more money so they can block or delay us in getting new non-apple products.

Seriously, I would do a lot of research and find local stores that have various ones on display and take some time to play with them. This is a big purchase for some of us. I kind of rushed into it and am not sure I made the best decision even though I am happy with my Tab 2. I had a Toshiba Excite 10 and it was great also with the exception that there is still not a lot of developers making apps that are compatible or support the Tegra 3 processor. And the fact that there was a glitch in the camera (which is better than the Tab 2) that caused some issues.

Good luck in you search and decision.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] CXENTE:
Whatever you do.. get something over 8GB ,,:(,,,,
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] ikropo:
Sure

I'd owned iPad 2 about a year but traded it for Galaxy Tab 2 (5100) so I have experience for both devices.

iPad is absolutely unusable without JailBreak. And you can not guarantee some smart guy will make a jailbreak for new iOs version.

But it is smooth and handy and sweet and yummy. And all girls are yours (if you own Ferrari as well).

SGT2 is scarcely usable with stock Samsung rom. It's sluggish and it lives its own life and doesn't care what exactly you want to get by poking your finger into the screen. Sometimes it may make an exception and mercifully respond to your wishes. May be such an impression comes after iPad since raw android users don't experience anything like that.

Yesterday with help of comrade Endoroid I managed to flash CyanogenMod 9 to my SGT2. And you know what - it is smooth almost like iPad now but you haven't to perform all those Voodoo dance to just put a file on it. So now I have all the mighty might of android swiss knife and smoothness of near of such of Ipad.

As a summary - I would recommend you this device if you can handle flashing a custom rom and don't bother about warranty.

Make your choice (c) John Kramer.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] sebi1392:
Got my GTab 2 since yesterday. It ran only 1 minute stock (to copy CM9 and gapps on flash) :D . Now I'm running CM 9 RC2 - CM10 4.1 is in progress by codeworkx. It's so smooth :fingers-crossed: ! Love it! Only thing is, that dock features like audio/hdmi over dock connector aren't supported yet.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Tsjoklat:
I've read in many threads that the build quality of the Nexus 7 is not very good. Asus tried to build it so that it would be easy to tear down and replace parts, and in order to do that, they did not use any glue to hold in the screen. This may been nice for the repair department, but it sucks for the average user constantly getting a loose screen (eventually causing damage to the screen).
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] PantechBurstOwner:
Thanks guys, im pretty sure im going to get the tab, and whats this about the nexus 7's screen coming loose. Any links to that??
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Tsjoklat:

The problem is that there is no glue.

Check out this video on the teardown. :p

http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Nexus-7-Teardown/9623/1

Hmm.. and one more thing. It looks like the screen has yet another problem with "ghosting" images.

http://www.androidauthority.com/nexus-7-ghosting-issues-affect-some-displays-99349/

Oh and also it seems that Tegra 3 chips have a severe "flickering" problem with the display.

Gee.. that is like 3 separate problems directly related to the screen

There is a hardware problem that affects the flickering in the display. When the brightness level is turned down, the IPS panel is affected when the broadcom WiFi chip receives data. So, if you want to use the internet and turn down the brightness, you will get (from what other people say) severe flickering on the screen. Sounds annoying.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] lcaveyl:
I got myself the galaxy tab 2 and overall well i will say for stock rom it does ok if you are doing light work (surfing,and music) although you do see the screen or tapping of screen lag when you are running more things. However overall rather stable for android os 4.0.3. i think there is an update to 4.0.4 but i guess i will stick with 4.0.3 a while longer before moving on to custom roms.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Arrizqi:
NO! Don't buy Galaxy Tab 2, I suggest you to buy an Asus Transformer Pad than Gtab 2 because some reasons:

1. It's cheaper

2. It's using NVIDIA Tegra 2 GPU (Transformer) which run graphics very smoothly than Gtab 2 which only powered by PowerVR

3. Asus Transformer's dock is very usable, your tab can transformed into a netbook

4. The dock could extend the battery of the tab up to 6-10 hours as I know

5. The widget and live wallpaper is pretty cool and awesome B)

6. Asus built in apps is very usable too

And the last...

7. It's have good specs for gaming :D

But I just suggest you and you've still consider which is the best for you :)
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] shinydesert:
You should install this rom,if you like stock roms. Very nice indeed. Remove the bloatware,install some sort of app that stop apps from starting on their own, and you will see a nice improvement.

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] SamsungVibrant:
Prior to the SGS3 release, all the blog sites were claiming Samsung was going to release a separate SGS3 model with the "SAFE" branding...Samsung Approved For Enterprise.

Did Samsung scratch that idea of releasing a separate SGS3 model with "SAFE" and instead decided to make all S3 phones "SAFE?"

I ask because I noticed the Verizon Galaxy S3 box has the "SAFE" logo on the back.

So do all S3s include the "SAFE" features, or is Samsung still going to release a separate "SAFE" model?

Click the link below if you have no idea what SAFE is.

Go to settings security and it should let you encrypt both the device and sd card.

after looking around and asking in the q&a forums i finally found a jelly bean lock screen:) (all thanks to my boy casonswag who coincidentally posted this on facebook haha)

its a play store app called "holo locker" and its SWEET AND FREE! lol

for those of us slowly transforming our s2 in to a jelly bean (while waiting for cm10 or for the official ota in the beginning of 2013)

this is a MUST have.

also if you cant seem to download it on the playstore (and i couldnt, dont know why, right now im on the latest cm9 nightlie) i have attached the apk down below:)

I believe there's a bug with the locker. When my screen is locked and I press either the up or down volume key, the ringer volume actually changes. Prior to Holo locker, I used widget locker, ASOP, and stock and none of these behaved like this.. Unless it's meant to be.

Well are you going to use the multiple gigs they give you for apps? The reason for sd-ext on other phones was because they didn't provide enough space for apps I think.

Necessary?

No.

Awesome bonus though.

My sprint sgs3 has 16G internal storage (phone calls this the sdcard)

I have a 32G sandisk micro and the phone paths this as /mnt/extSdCard

I have 7 episodes from Google TV (movies) and 87 albums from Google music on the external and space to spare.

The best part is the internal memory of the phone (system and sdcard) have PLENTY of space available to download anything I want and what I plan to keep long term, I move to my external.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] upsidedowner:
Got my Verizon gnex a couple weeks ago. I have a habit of just charging it every night that has carried over from my Droid incredible 2. But on the off chance that I am charging before 9:30 or 10, I have noticed that it charges incredibly slowly and actually drains while browsing the Web with WiFi. I have been using an older cable, is there some new micro usb voltage or something? Are you experiencing similar charge speeds?

Any input is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Charging off the wall plug or a USB port on a computer? USB ports will at the

most

put out 500mA at the port, with some line loss via the cable you won't charge barely at all. Most wall chargers are 1A, and will charge faster. An old cable can't be helping with that either.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kristovaher:
First of all, if it drains while using and charging it at the same time, then this can cause plenty of battery issues. I've charged my Nexus on low voltage circuits, such as the ones on many ferries and while there are no immediate problems with it, once I fully charged Nexus when home and used it the next work day I had problems. Once the phone had discharged to the range it was when I was charging and using, it completely froze and after restart had lost ~20% battery charge.

So it's never recommended to use the device while charging it with low voltage (this can be the case also when charging through your computer).

It's recommended to charge the device through a wall outlet and (possibly) with the official charger that came with the product (or one with same parameters).

I used to have an HTC Blue Angel and the predictive text was excellent for me I could type really quickly.

Ever since I changed to a Touch HD the predictive text chooses the wrong words, automatically sticks in bits of text I don't want and frequently will double type stuff when I use backspace to delete a wrong character.

Does anyone know how the get the Blue Angel PT onto a Touch HD it's been driving me nuts for a couple of years now nad my only real complaint with the device.

I'm running the Galaxy S2 and hate the keyboard. I haven't used many android phones that I actually lik ethe keyboard on. They all seem to have a mind of their own. Just turn off any sort of autocorrect or preditive text. I tried a bunch of keyboard apps and the one i liked most was iTap. It's suppose to be like the iPhone keyboard but eventually I ended up giving up on that one to.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] carrevan:
So, every time my phone restarts or reboots the XDA developer app that I have installed deletes itself completely off of my phone. I just performed a factory reset hoping it fixed all the issues but it hasn't. Is it the app or my phone? I don't get it. The XDA icon.stays in the folder but if I click on it all it says is the app is not installed...

Also, my ringtone and notification sounds reset after a restart...
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] *Madmoose*:
That sounds like a phone thing. How apps and settings are getting installed and removed upon a reboot (or crash?) I'm not sure, but definitely not normal.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] carrevan:
I got a replacement phone and both of these issues are still there. It must be the software. Can anyone install the XDA Developers app from Google Play, restart and then see if it deleted itself? There's no way I just got two buggy phones. I reported these issues to HTC.
